He had watched it all unfold.

The alpha getting distracted by a beta, leaving the beta he had come with alone.

And then the beta panicking when the alpha wasn't around.

It wasn't something he particularly cared about... except the beta had something he needed.

More and more wolves were starting to show up and it was getting harder to keep track of everything.

He reached forward with shaking hands, longing to close them around what he needed.

He was so close...

Keonhee kept backing away from the main streets of the market. There was no way he was going to be able to keep himself calm now, not when he could smell several alphas getting closer.

Why? Why did this have to happen to him again?

There was no way he was going to get away this time, not when he was in unfamiliar territory.

The next thought that came to his mind was how much he was going to miss Hwanwoong... They still weren't close, but he had hoped they could be friends once the omega started to open up a little more.

How could Leedo just leave him like this?

Keonhee held his herbs close to his chest and ran down another alley.

He would run for as long as he could to avoid what came next...

"We can smell you. Stop running and show yourself." A grizzled sounding alpha called out.

"We just want to take care of you baby boy." That one was a female alpha. Keonhee realized the air must just reek of cinnamon if he was attracting that many alphas.

He spun around again and tried a nearby door, but it was locked. They were all locked.

"Come out, come out!" The female called in a sing-song.

Keonhee rounded another corner and paused to look around.

Keonhee!!

The beta let out a sob when he heard Youngjo's voice in his head. Youngjo! I'm here!

Where are you?

I d-don't know... P-Please... Help me. Tears came to his eyes and his heart raced even faster.

Keonhee take a deep breath. Hwanwoong's voice entered the mix and Keonhee whined. They had come for him. His pack... They had come back for him.

I— I'm in an alley way behind the market. I couldn't find Leedo... And... He was about to continue when three growls made him stop.

Keonhee turned slowly to see three alphas advancing on him from different directions. He started to back away. It was the only thing he could do, even though he knew they were herding him... Guys...

Hang on! We are coming! Youngjo said.

"There he is. What a pretty thing you are." One of the males said. It was the one that hadn't spoken yet. He was big and his voice was deep to match. The alpha cracked his knuckles and licked his lips.

The other male chuckled. Now that Keonhee could see him, the rough voice made sense. He looked to be an older male with patchy black and grey hair and several scars on his face.
