"Woahhh"

I take in the sight in front of me, Hoseok's hand pulling me along the slippery stones. I carefully step from stone to stone without taking my eyes of the giant waterfall cascading onto a big shimmering lake.

"You like it?", Hoseok asks hopeful. I feel his gaze landing on me.

"Oh my god, I love it Hobi!", I smile brightly, wetting the tip of my shoe into the clear water.

He stands next to me,"Wanna take a dive?"

"Isn't it like ice cold?"

"Not really, the lake has been warming up since spring so it should be okay now", he slips his hand back into mine.

"So wadda ya say?", he swings our intertwined hands back and forth.

I glance between the lake and his hopeful expression. "Sure", I smile, seeing his face brighten.

He slips off his shirt, woahhh holy abs, throwing it somewhere on the ground, and does the same with his pants, leaving him in only his boxers.

He sprints to the water, diving into it with a big splash. I jump back quickly so the water doesn't soak me.

"Come on Tae!", he yells, waving his arms in the middle of the lake.

I roll my eyes and start undressing, realizing I'm wearing pink 'underwear'. Apparently it's called that because you wear it under your clothes. Sounds obvious.

Hoseok whistles when I'm left in only my boxers, making me stick out my tongue at him. I wet my foot to feel the lukewarm water of the lake.

Alright then.

I jump into the lake with him, immediately being splashed with water. I try to defend myself with splashing back and it quickly turns into a water fight. The sun has already travelled westwards when we clamber out of the lake, signaling it's already late in the afternoon.

"How late could it be?", I ask as I shake myself to dry faster.

"I guess it's around 4 pm", Hoseok throws me my pants and sweater. I grab them and put them on, feeling the fabric soak immediately. I'm going to freeze like this.

"Cold?", Hoseok asks, seeing my body shiver.

"Y-yeah", I shrug.

"You know what helps with that?", his eyes brighten.

"What?"

"Hugs!", he stretches his arms for me to walk into them. I roll my eyes but step closer anyway because I'm freezing. He envelops me into a tight hug and I feel the heath radiating off him.

"Thanks Hoseok", I mumble against his chest.

"You're welcome Tae", I can practically hear the everlasting smile in his voice.

How can he smile like that when he's always alone?

"Are you lonely often?", I decide to ask, tearing my cheek of his chest to look up at him.

His eyes still twinkle but I notice his smile falter slightly, "Sometimes. But not anymore".

"How come?", I stare up at him curiously.

"Because I met you", he pokes my nose and I lightly blush at his words. He looks back up to the sky.

"Let's bring you back to your pack. We don't want them to worry about their cute omega".

Another blush. God, I'm warm enough now.

Hoseok waves me goodbye at the edge of the pack territory and he disappears behind the trees. I glance back one last time and step into the pack grounds, seeing a few wolfs walk around. When they see me nearing they start shouting something and suddenly Namjoon runs out of a building. They start pointing at me and when he finally sees me he runs up to me.

"Taehyung!", he almost yells.

"Namjoon", I state back. Why are we saying each other's name? Is this a normal greeting?

"Why do you keep running off!? Jimin is worried sick about you", he seems angry, oh no.

"I w-wanted to get m-my mind off t-things", I stutter, looking down in embarrassment. They are probably all angry with me. I've ruined it all, haven't it? I'll guess I'll be sent back to EXO now.

He suddenly grabs my arm, making me flinch. He notices this and slowly retracts his hand. "I'm not going to hurt Taehyung", he says softly, "We aren't angry, just worried something happened to you. Last time we found you, you were sleeping on the ground".

"I-I-", I really want to explain my weird behaviour but I don't want them to know about Hoseok. I want him to stay my little secret for now.

He doesn't push me to say anything so I stay silent. He then sighs and starts walking to the pack house, motioning me to follow. I trail behind him with my gaze cast down, fumbling with my sweater paws.

"H-how's Jungkook?", I ask finally, feeling the tension growing as we near the house.

"He's doing okay. His wounds have almost healed", Namjoon informs me.

"Already? How is that even possible?", I frown.

"You might not realize it but he's a very powerful alpha. He just hides it behind his boy-like façade".

I don't reply, not knowing what to say to that. We walk into the pack house and he leads me to a room where Jungkook is supposed to be in. I almost faint as soon as we step inside and the door is closed behind us. The familiar addicting scent is all around the room, like thick fog, making my knees give away underneath me. Namjoon can barely catch me on time.

"Woah are you alright?"

I can't think straight. The scent is fogging over my every thought and sense.

"Taehyung?", some husky voice calls out. My eyes instantly focus on the boy on the bed in the centre of the room.

"J-Jungkook"

I'm panting. I'm breathless. Why is a stupid smell having such an effect on me?

"Can you leave us alone for a minute?", Jungkook asks the other people in the room. I only now notice Yoongi, Jin and Jimin surrounding his bed. They nod at him and walk past my trembling figure, eyeing me warily. They are mad, aren't they? Jimin mouths something at me as he passes me but my mind is too slow to process anything.

The door closes and I'm left suffocating.

"Come closer", Jungkook orders and without doing anything my feet walk over to him. I don't even mind that he's controlling me. I'm not in the right mind to tell my brains any commands. My feet stop at the edge of the bed.

His piercing gaze then scans my whole body.

"Why do I smell another wolf on you?", he asks frowning a bit.

I'm too sluggish to think of any lie so I don't say anything.

"Answer me", he says sternly.

"I spent the afternoon with Hoseok", my mouth seems to say. The words slip right out without my permission. I slap my hands on my mouth to muffle the rest and glare at him. He commanded me. My mate just commanded me to say something I wanted to keep a secret.

"Hoseok?", he narrows his eyes, "You mean that filthy rogue who steals everything around here?"

His aura is glowing dangerously, squeezing my throat shut.

"Speak", he commands again and I'm seriously getting tired of this bullshit.

"Yes that Hoseok. He's really nice and at least he doesn't use his scary wolf senses to dominate me", I snap at him, trying to turn away from him to run out but his voice stops me. Again, I've lost all control of my body.

His hand is suddenly around my wrist and I'm pulled down on the bed with him.

"Listen here Taehyung. You're my mate, you're my omega, you're mine. I don't want you hanging out with some suspicious beta who makes you disappear in times of need, who takes you away from me", he growls in my ear, making me whine against his broad chest.

"W-why did you call me disgusting then?", I whimper.

"What do you mean? I thought we spoke about this last night?", he sounds confused.

I finally find my strength back to push myself off him. "But... Jimin told me that wasn't possible because you were at the EXO pack. I thought I had dreamed everything", I fumble with the loose strings of my sweater, or rather, his sweater.

"No I told him that to not raise suspicion. I first went to you and then left in the early morning to the EXO pack, that's why I was so bloody. It was daylight so my sneak attack wasn't that tactful", he smiles softly at me making me rethink everything.

"So you got hurt because of me?", I croak out. He shakes his head quickly and kisses my nose.

"No, I got hurt because of my own stupidity", he goes to caress my cheek with his rough hand.

"O-okay", I look down again. So everything I thought was wrong, like always...

"You look utterly adorable in my clothes by the way", he points out suddenly, "Even though they stink of another wolf".

"I'm sorry... I'll throw them off", I mumble and I see a sly smirk forming on his lips.

"You can always throw them off here", he winks, making me blush a terrible red.

"Yah", I stomp his chest, "Don't say that".

"When you're this close to me my wolf speaks before I can censor him", he grins, sliding his hands up my waist. I melt at the touch.

"Tell your wolf he's a pervert", I let my head fall into the crook of his head.

He chuckles, "I will".

Should I make them go to school?
