Love Me || Taekook

|25|

After another full day, Jungkook's rut finally came to an end. He took the next day off from school, using it as an opportunity to recover from the strain, and slept nearly the entire time. During the four days he'd been locked up in the basement, he'd barely gotten five hours of sleep. Half of that time could hardly even be counted since he was so restless.

After he'd gotten enough rest, he went back to his normal self. Aside from one thing that is. He made a constant effort to stay away from Taehyung, even going through the trouble of sleeping in a different room. It caused a bit of tension, but no one was too concerned with it. His behavior was reasonable after what he'd just been through. His pack mates were very forgiving since they realized that he had no control over himself during that time.

School, however, didn't care for his circumstances. Jungkook had so much homework that he thought he'd die before he managed to finish it all. So, he made sure not to miss anymore classes and go before and after school to get some extra help, though he still took lunch hour for his own time.

Jungkook listened as his friends laughed heartily, walking through the halls together. They'd been sharing ridiculous stories from their pasts and Jungkook had mostly been tuning them out, making a few exceptions when he heard something interesting or funny. School had started a few hours ago and they were on their way to lunch where they were going to meet up with Taehyung and a few of the others in his class, so he was a bit eager to travel through the hallways quickly. Food was calling his name and his stomach was willingly responding.

"And then the guy just stood up and walked away like nothing had even happened!" One of the two alphas from Taehyung's pack that attended school with them said as she finished her story.

"What!? How is that even possible?" BamBam asked, completely baffled.

"Well, if they had a high pain tolerance, they might not realize something was broken. Now hurry up. I'm starving!" Jungkook explained, turning his head to look at his friend for just a second too long. He bumped into someone that was turning a corner. "Oh sorry-" The alpha's eyes went wide as they settled on the necklace the guy was wearing. He froze, eyes locked onto the pendant, as everyone watched silently. A heavy tension settled in the silence, but it snapped aggressively when Jungkook's expression turned dark and a glint of red could be seen in his irises. In a second he had what seemed to be the new kid pinned to the floor and was pelting the boy's face with punch after punch. Screams erupted from the surrounding students and the others were stunned. Luckily, they quickly pulled him away once they realized what was happening, though they struggled to do so easily and needed the help of multiple people since Jungkook was a strong alpha. "YOU FUCKING MONSTER!!!" Jungkook screamed as he was dragged down the hall and locked in a vacant bathroom.

"Someone go get Taehyung! He might be able to help calm him down." Yugyeom ordered as he did his best to keep the door shut, wincing every time Jungkook tried to kick it or ram into it. BamBam took the liberty of running to go get the omega.

While they waited, one of the teachers that worked there and was tasked with watching over the werewolves rushed over, panicked. "What happened!? I heard Jungkook went crazy on the new student!"

"I would ask him why, but I don't think he's in the right mind right now." Yugyeom pressed his body up against the door a bit harder as he felt a stronger force come from the other side. "JUNGKOOK CALM DOWN!!"

"LET ME OUT!! THAT PIECE OF SHIT WILL PAY!! I SWEAR IT ON MY FUCKING LIFE!!"

"Oh shit! If he shifts we'll have a problem...."

"What the hell happened?" A panicked Taehyung asked as he and BamBam got closer.

"I have no clue. He just started attacking some new kid. He didn't look familiar, so I have no idea why he did. Do you think you could calm him down?"

"I can try...." Taehyung gulped as he walked up to the door. "Jungkook? It's me, Taehyung. Can you calm down a bit so I can come in?"

The banging on the door stopped and Yugyeom backed up a bit to let the 16 year old slip in, quickly pressing up against it again once it was closed.

"Hey...what happened? Are you hurt- woah!" As soon as Jungkook laid eyes on Taehyung he pushed him up against the nearest wall, face buried into his neck.

"Fuck Tae....I need you."

"I'm here. I right here for you. Calm down okay? You're okay now." Taehyung wrapped his arms around his mate, trying to sooth him. "Can you tell me what happened?"

"No- I can't....I need you, Taehyung. Please...let me mark you. I can't hold it much longer." Taehyung froze, fear striking him. "For fucks sake...I feel like I'm dying. I feel like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff every time I see you. It hurts. Please."

"I- Jungkook I don't-" Taehyung relaxed a bit after hearing that. He realized that he'd been so stupid. He screamed and yelled at his father for not allowing Jungkook to mark him, angry that his mate was injured because of it. Now he was the one hurting the alpha. He let go of his fear, and though he was still a bit frightened, he wouldn't prolong the inevitable any longer.

"Okay..." the omega shivered when he felt his mate's teeth graze over his skin. "Go ahead. I'm ready."

With no hesitation Jungkook's teeth sharpened and pushed deep into Taehyung's shoulder. A scream ripped through the omega's vocal chords and his body would've met with the floor if Jungkook didn't have such a strong grip on him, his hands surely bruising the skin underneath of them. A pleasurable warmth seeped into both of them, calming both of them down.

Jungkook pulled away and gingerly licked over the mark, sealing it and completing their bond. He breathed in deeply and then smiled, hugging Taehyung close and closing his eyes. "Finally..."

Taehyung managed to smile as well, jumping up to latch onto his mate. "Mhm..." his head eased onto the alpha's shoulder as his vision faded.

"What the fuck was that??" BamBam asked worriedly as he stormed into the restroom with them. He looked between the two others frantically. "Jeon fucking Jungkook, if you hurt him I swear to god you will not live to see another goddamn day!"

"Calm your tits drama queen. I just marked him. I think it was too overwhelming for him though. He's asleep." Jungkook smiled sweetly and kissed his sleeping mate's head. "I think we should all go home for today." His expression turned serious. "I need to talk with Mr. Jung."
