"Jungkook escaped again!" Jin cried.

"Damnit!" Namjoon exclaimed. "Who was supposed to be watching him this time?"

"I was, but he is getting stronger than we are," Taehyung replied as he stepped from behind Jin.

"You're a tiger. Nobody gets past you, especially the rabbit." Namjoon growled.

"Yeah, well, he didn't stay a rabbit," Taehyung growled back. 

Namjoon rolled his eyes, "We don't have much time before the moon hits the sky. Stay in groups of two and look for him. Yoongi, you're with me." 

Jin transforms into his wolf and starts tracking the escapee's trail.  Jimin transforms into the golden retriever to help. 

The men spread out through the forest looking for the escaped member of their group. "If we don't find him in time, you know where he's going," Yoongi said.

"Yeah, I know," Namjoon replied. They ran towards the human compound, running towards the dorms. When they got there, Y/N's door was closed and the lights were off.

"She's not home. So where did she go?" Yoongi asked.

"We told her to stay away from the forest tonight," Namjoon said. "Looks like she listened to our warning."

An owl flew overhead and landed before transforming, "He's not in the forest and Jin says that his scent is headed towards town."

"Well, Shit," Yoongi cussed. He quickly transformed into his coyote and took off running.

"This is all we need," Namjoon complained before jumping into the air and taking wing.

Hoseok watched as his friends chased after their missing member. He then turned back home to prep the basement for the return of their runaway, hoping they would return in time, for all their sakes.

"Grab a drink ladies," Marcus places a pink shot glass in front of both me and Mindy. "Bottoms up ladies!" he cheers and knocks back his shot. He looks at both of us, Mindy has her glass in her hand drinking slowly. I haven't touched my glass. Marcus leans towards me, "Come on, just have a little fun with us." He places his hands on my arm and leans even closer to me. I start to lean back, balling up my fist, ready to deck him.

Before I can do anything, a hand takes Marcus by the wrist and removes his hand from my arm. We both look up and there stands a sexy stranger with intense eyes. His white hair is wavy and long around the ears. He's dressed in all black and his shirt is open with the top 3 buttons undone. My eyes travel down the length of his body and I see tight black pants and boots finish the outfit. I look back up at the sexy stranger and he's staring at Marcus like he wants to eat him.

Marcus for his part shrinks back under the heated glare and I notice that others at other tables are also staring at the sexy stranger. I look at Mindy and her face is one of shock. A hand takes mine and the stranger speaks.

"I believe the lady isn't interested in drinking with you. If you don't mind?" He then drags me from the table and takes me out onto the dance floor. Before I can even formulate a response, he brings me into his arms and starts dancing with me. What just happened?

"I'm sorry to take you from your table so ungraciously, but he was getting on my nerves." The stranger apologizes. His voice is soft and sends chills down my spine as he speaks near my ear.

"I was getting ready to punch him, so you saved me from an assault charge." I chuckle. I see him smile out of the corner of my eyes. I haven't looked at this stranger directly yet, but the smile makes me feel better about my abduction from my table. He continues dancing with me and we pass Ceren, who is staring in shock at the man who is holding me. I notice that the women on the dancefloor are also staring at this sexy man holding me and we might need to get a bucket to mop up the drool coming from their open mouths.
