FORCED TO MATE | TAEKOOK ✓

fourteen.

Taehyung let out a small sigh of relief as he stared out into the garden.

Jimin's eyes narrowed lightly before he was turning to him once more, "Although I am curious as to why you are out here alone."

His eyes were calculating and curious, burning holes into Taehyung's skin until he willed himself to come up with an answer.

He grew embarrassed at the idea of telling him about the prince's foul attitude, feeling like he was complaining.

But before he could get another word out, Jimin was leaning in closer to him.

Instinctively Taehyung took a small step back, not exactly liking how the other omega had gotten into his personal space so early on.

His eyes were wide in surprise and a little bit of fear as Jimin sniffed around him.

His lips parted in shock as he ducked his head, trying to stop him from sniffing his scent.

"Hm," Jimin's brows furrowed in confusion as he leaned back and finally allowed Taehyung to breath normally.

"I can see the mate mark on your neck yet the scent of your alpha seems very faint."

Taehyung bowed his head shamefully as Jimin inspected his reaction.

The omega didn't respond to his observation immediately, cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

If Jimin could tell that his alpha's scent was faint on him then anyone would also be able to.

The scent would never completely disappear since he was marked but it would be much stronger if Jeongguk had been around him recently.

"Tell me something, how was your wedding night?"

His suspicions were quickly confirmed when Taehyung's scent began to change with anxiety.

His hands began to shake lightly as he gulped harshly and stuttered out a response.

"I-I ..."

"You didn't mate, did you?" 

Jimin's voice was soft, like he was trying to understand and not scare the omega right beside him.

Taehyung's eyes managed to snap up to meet his, face displaying an immense amount of hurt that had Jimin standing up straighter.

And for some odd reason Taehyung felt the comfort of the other omega in his presence.

It felt alright for him to open up to him, to tell another soul what he was going through.

"N-No."

Jimin let out a scoff, scaring Taehyung momentarily who flinched lightly but did not attempt to move away.

"He just marked you and left, didn't he?"

Jimin inhaled sharply when Taehyung did not respond, certain anger coursing through his veins.

He grew up with Jeongguk, he knew the alpha better than anyone in the world.

He had heard him rant and complain about the marriage therefore it didn't surprise him that the alpha had done such a horrendous act.

"That pompous ass, I will-" 

Jimin was already beginning to walk off with an outraged look on his face, fists clenched at his sides.

Just because Jeongguk was the prince and an alpha it did not mean he had the right to act that way.

But Taehyung was quick to grip his wrist, eyes widening at his own actions before he was letting go as if he had gotten burned.
