Seonghwa nervously paced around the room as he waited for the signal from Mingi that everything was fine. As he paced, he chewed on his nails and kept looking out of the window.

"Hyung, it'll be okay," Yeosang assures him, and just a few moments ago he was being reassured by the older Omega.

"I know, but I just can't help but feel like something is going to happen," Seonghwa nervously chews on the cuticle on his thumb, staring out into the trees.

And then he felt it.

The pain of someone sinking their teeth into his neck and shoulder, almost as if they were trying to tear a chunk out of him. He cries out, the pain so intense he falls to his knees and holds onto the area where he felt it. Yeosang was up and kneeling by him with Anastasia in his arms, his large honey colored eyes were wide with worry.

Seonghwa lifts his head up and pants, "Mingi."

That's all it took for him to stand and rush out of the door, leaving it wide open as he runs out of the house past Hongjoong. He didn't even make it halfway across the yard before he shifts, not caring that he torn his clothes as he pushes himself quickly to where his mate is. He was livid. No one, and he means no one is getting away with hurting his mate.

He snarls, the sounds of snarls and roars were getting louder and then he catches the culprit.

A small black and brown Omega was circling Mingi and snapping at his heels while the two black wolves claw, bite, and snap at one another. Seonghwa snarls as he pushes himself faster, approaching the wolf and ramming him away from his mate.

The Omega yelps in pain from being slammed into, rolling on the ground a few times before jumping back up with a snarl. He rounds on Seonghwa, baring his teeth as he growls. Seonghwa roars, feeling his Luna status instantly towering over this Omega as he stands in front of the Omega shielding Mingi from him.

The Omega charges and attacks Seonghwa, Seonghwa easily had the upper hand though and dodged the charge. He latched his teeth on the fluffy tail, causing the Omega to yelp loudly as Seonghwa drags him away.

Seonghwa yelps in pain however at the feeling of sharp teeth in his leg, and lets go of the Omega to round on one of the Betas. The Beta snarls, lunging on top of Seonghwa and trying to pin him down, but the Luna wasn't going down without a fight.

Hongjoong's silver and black wolf leaps into view and knocks the Beta out of the way with a vicious growl, the other Beta runs after him. But Hongjoong freezes when he pins down the darker faced Beta, looking to the other who was standing off to the side with his lip curled back in a warning snarl for Hongjoong to get off the other Beta.

Hongjoong tilts his head at the scent of the Beta and it hit him like a ton of bricks. He knew that roasted peanut smell anywhere.

Yunho? He tried to mind link the other Beta, but his connection with the old pack must have been cut off when he joined Mingi's.

The wolf, seemed to understand though and suddenly relaxes and steps back. Hongjoong was flipped and pinned by the other Beta, but he was immediately stopped when Yunho barks at him. And suddenly he's shifting into his human form, "Hongjoong?"

At that cue, Hongjoong moves away and shifts as well, he's panting for air from the fight as he stares at the Beta before him, "Yunho."

The two Betas stare at one another before Hongjoong stumbles forward and brings the other in his arms for a quick hug. They embrace one another for a moment, but the warmth was suddenly gone when the distant snarls from the Alphas fighting in the distance pulls them apart. Their eyes widen and they turn to see the large two black wolves circling one another.

"Mingi!" Hongjoong screams.

"Jongho!!" Yunho screams at the same time, both were trying desperately to get their attention.

Their ears flicker at the sounds of their names being called, but neither one stops circling or growling ferociously.

Yunho curses, seeing San and Wooyoung cornering Seonghwa against a tree and his eyes flash, "San! Wooyoung! Stand down!"

Wooyoung whimpers, instantly backing away from the demanding tone but San stayed put, him and Seonghwa stare at one another as they growl and snarl. Yunho walks over to them and stands over San, the wolf flinches at the taller over towering him as Yunho barks an order, "Shift!"

Seonghwa whimpers, tilting his head away in submission. Even his Luna status wouldn't stop his wolf from submitting to a Beta. San growls lowly before shifting, Seonghwa falling suit. Hongjoong gasps, "San?"

San looks up at the older boy, his large eyes were nervously watching him and Seonghwa until Hongjoong gestures to get him up. The smaller Omega, Wooyoung, comes over and hugs San for he was scared on who this Beta was with Yunho, and why Yunho wasn't fighting him.

Hongjoong looks over to see the Alphas once more charging at one another and fighting, their roars and snarls filled the whole field and could possibly be heard for miles. That wasn't good for them, they could draw hunters towards them if they weren't careful.

He steps towards their way, knowing they weren't going to be happy that a Beta interfered in the fight but they had to stop. His heart was racing as he looks to Yunho, "We have to stop them, they could draw in hunters."

Yunho curses, following suit and right behind him San followed. The three Betas move forward and when they were close enough the Alphas were once more circling one another. They stepped in front of their individual Alpha, Hongjoong falls to his knees in front of Mingi and the Alpha snarls.

Hongjoong swallows the lump in his throat as he fights the need to submit, shaking his head, "Stop Mingi. Please."

He started it.

"Well we're ending it," Hongjoong snaps, looking over his shoulder to see Yunho and San trying their best to coax Jongho to calm down. He looks back to his Alpha and shakes his head, "He's not worth it, don't let him get to you. You've made your point that this is your territory and he needs to go."

Mingi's wolf huffs before shifting into his human form, hissing at the pain from the cuts and bruises on his body. He was bleeding from many scratches and lacerations. He glares at Jongho and stands tall, tilting his chin back as he musters up every ounce of his head Alpha status, "Shift!"

Jongho's wolf snarls, his head snapped to the side in submission and the two Betas were begging for him to shift and obey the head Alpha. Jongho finally did, but once he was in his human form, he quickly stands and saunters over to Mingi, "You son of a bitch!" He roars, landing a punch right on Mingi's cheek and once more the fight breaks out.

They roll on the earth, landing punch after punch on to each other's faces as they growl and snarl. The three Betas were once more ripping them apart and holding them back from one another with every ounce of strength they could muster. Hongjoong was struggling just holding on to Mingi, and eventually Seonghwa places himself in front of him, cupping the Alpha's face and pressing their foreheads together, "Look at me, focus on me." He whispered softly.

Mingi was huffing and puffing angrily, his eyes never strayed from their red tint as he glared at Jongho. How dare he came into his territory and tried to take it over. Take Mingi's pack as his own, take his Omega.... and Ana, she would've been killed for being Mingi's pup.

"What is your business here," Seonghwa turns and spoke sternly, looking directly at Jongho into his own dark red eyes.

"That is none of your concern, Omega," Jongho snarls, and once more Mingi snaps, pushing Seonghwa behind him and roaring. The others were once more holding them back and trying to keep the two brothers apart, there was no need for more fighting, but rage was thick in the air.

"Get off of my territory," Mingi growls, his stature easily overpowering everyone's as he stood taller than them all, "Get off, and if you ever come back I'll kill every single one of you."

"I'm not leaving 'til I kill you myself," Jongho roars, once more fighting against his pack's restraints.

"Jongho please stop!" Yunho cries out, cupping the Alpha's face, "Stop! Stop!!"

"Let go of me Yunho," Jongho snarls, his eyes weren't focused on the Beta until Yunho steps in his view and blocks him from Mingi. He presses their lips together in a sweet kiss, not caring that everyone was watching.

"Yunho?" Mingi's deep voice called behind him, and the Beta turns to look at his old friend.

He smiles, "Hello Mingi."

It was silent as the two stared at one another until Mingi loosens his muscles and his eyes turned back to their dark brown, "What are you doing here? Why are ALL of you here firstly."

Yunho swallows before biting his lip, Mingi knew something had to have happened to make the older leave their pack back at home. Yunho wouldn't have left his father's care unless he had a mate of his own...

Mingi seen the mark on his neck and his eyes widen, "You're mated." He looks at Jongho, thinking it was him who claimed the Beta, but a mark didn't adjourn his neck. Not a single one. Mingi frowns, looking back at Yunho, "Did father send you here?"

Jongho snorts and Yunho growls at him in warning before facing his old friend, "I-It's a long story Mingi."

"Well start talking," Mingi growls, "You're dancing around the reason of why you're here and it's making me even more angry than I already am!"

Yunho looks to Jongho and San, he swallows before looking back to the ground. Something happened back at home and whatever it was, wasn't good. Mingi frowns, his patience wearing thin until Yunho spoke up, "We were thrown out, Mingi."
