=========================

Jungkook has always loved the smell of clean water and unperfumed soap. Since he was a child he had been very particular with scents, anything artificial or chemically made him grimace and scrunch his nose up in aversion. He hated the smell of hospitals, or whenever his mother dragged him to some candle and incense shop. He'd sort of worried he'd never be attracted to any smell and couldn't quite understand the stories he'd heard of Alpha wolves being so obsessed with their mate's scent they practically devoured them in bites and kissed bruises, or worse, when an Omega went into heat it pushed even the most disciplined Alphas past their limits.

An Omega went into heat when he was at school once. Jungkook had been sitting at the back of the class with Yugyeom, on the brink of sleep, when a heavy scent permeated the air. It snapped him from his drowsiness and his knuckles tightened around the edge of his desk, Yugyeom tensed beside him. But the scent wasn't anything special – it was alluring and beckoning but it wasn't enough to make Jungkook's mouth water or heart beat faster. Heads whipped around to the slightly awkward but extremely pretty Omega in the second row. The teacher, a Beta, instantly took him outside and called campus security – half the school's cohort were Alphas, an Omega in heat was practically asking for a bloody fight. The heat had only just hit, and maybe a few more minutes of exposure would have made Jungkook voracious, but other Alphas in the class were already there. It made Jungkook wonder if he was a bit strange.

"It happens, Kook. Some Alphas are more susceptible than others. You're lucky you have more control," Namjoon had said comfortingly, glasses slipping down his nose.

That eased Jungkook's qualms a little, except for the niggling concern he'd feel nothing for his mate.

Of course, that worry was unnecessary.

Jimin – Jimin – could drive him to the brink of insanity.

From the second he'd found his scent his Alpha wolf was done for. Jungkook was done for.

Jimin's scent was refreshing and lightly sweet, like roses, with a dash of morning rain and undertones of sandalwood and vanilla. It pulled Jungkook in and wrapped around him like a blanket, calmed him down when he felt stress building up inside, eased his hot temper, welcomed him with love and acceptance. He loved coming back after work or university to Jimin's scent lingering in the apartment, but nothing compared to when he had his beautiful mate in his arms, nosing across the slope of his shoulder where Jungkook made his mark.

And, of course, when Jimin was needy and aroused and pliant – his scent made Jungkook want to litter his porcelain skin with splotches of pink and purple with his lips, let everyone know Jimin was his, his mate. It made something primal pool in Jungkook's stomach, his eyes flash to a dark maroon, Alpha wolf determined to have what was his.

"Jungkook – hurry – please," Jimin whined wantonly from below him, hair splayed out across the pillow, pupils blown and fingers curled tightly in the bed sheets. The early morning sunlight shined across his chest.

Jungkook rubbed circles on Jimin's hip bones, the skin smooth under the pads of his thumb. He licked his lips and watched closely when Jimin shuddered in his hold, smothering the bedroom with the smell of his desire. "Why, love? We have all day."
