Third person POV

Taehyung clutched his clothes harder than before, waiting for some painful strike or maybe the pain in his chest just like he felt that night, but as time passed, he felt nothing like that... no pain, no movement, nothing.

Reluctantly, he moved his head lightly, only his eyes were able to peek over his knees, which soon were wide and in full view, surprised to find the situation that changed so quickly because there was no one, he was alone in the big room. The raging male was long gone, without producing a single noise, leaving the quivering human sitting in the same position.

The breath that fell out of Taehyung's lips felt very heavy, his tears were falling like a broken stream, and his hands wrapped around his hair in distress. Jungkook looked really angry, ready to break his many bones, but why would he leave like that?

The question lingered in his mind, but he found no appropriate answer to that, making him more frustrated. It was true when he said he didn't mean to hurt her. He could never hurt anyone deliberately. Then how can he hurt an elder woman? Unfortunately, the impression was made so wrong, and he hated that. But what he can say when everything was going downhill since he came here, nothing was in his hands, and it was the most bothersome thing breaching the limit called enough.

Finding Jungkook storming out of the room, Jimin was already standing in front of him with eyes screaming concern for the human residing behind those walls, and it wasn't difficult for the alpha to see it through. Biting his lips harshly, he ignored the look the beta gave to him and rushed out of the house, removing his shirt and shifting into his wolf even before he could leave the premises.

Jimin watched the alpha rushing out, smelling of sadness, and he knew... he knew well what could have happened inside those walls because he was sure of Jungkook's nature. Smiling sadly at the twisted and painful fate of the two mates, he silently crouched near the door, waiting for his own mate who happened to be near the borders of the pack.

Leaning his head over the door, he gazed up at the ceiling, all while hearing the muffled sobs of the human who must be trying hard to keep his voice low.

"Please, make it easier for them." The soft pray left his plump lips for the two, heartily wanting to see them happy.

The majestic wolf was rushing past the tall trees, his paws skillfully dodging the fallen logs and twigs and his eyes sharp as ever, very much aware of his surroundings until he reached his safe place. The wolf howled, once, twice, and it went on for a few minutes before it was dead silent, only the ruffling of the leaves was heard.

It took a little while before Jungkook was finally standing there in his human form after taking the robe from its place. His eyes held the melancholy that no one could see adequately, his heart was filled with pain that he had to keep to himself, and his wolf was raging in distress after what he had heard from his mate back in that room.

His mate, the mate he was longing for, was too afraid of him to explain himself. Even he made up his mind that he won't be able to live, no, not live, it was the more lively term, he mentioned survive, he said that he cannot survive for long here because of the terror or torture he was facing here.

And it wasn't a lie. Deep down, Jungkook knew it too that Taehyung, a fragile human, could not survive his tantrums of rage, which came out unexpectedly without a full moon and was life-threatening to the male. He was never before been this much afraid of his cursed side, but today, he felt strong hatred toward it. If he could have a bit of control over his own self, he would have shown his mate how much he can love him, how much he can adore him, and keep him like a real prince. But the curse was really a curse, ruined his whole life, and was ready to ruin his precious mate bond now.

The tears shone like galaxies in his eyes under the light of the sun, but the glimmer was so dull, screaming the pain he was hiding inside. Taking a hasty breath, he looked down at his hands and then at his feet. His right foot, the one that broke Taehyung's ankle, and his hands, which handled his terrified male, so harshly, were looking so clean but in his eyes, he found them burning, each and every second they were burning in guilt.

Dragging his tongue over his lips, he plopped near the big rock, trying to calm his wolf, which was silently begging to be set free, but he wouldn't... he wouldn't take a risk anymore. It was already enough.

°°°°°°°°

For the next few days, Jungkook kept his distance from Taehyung, and Jimin was living in his house to take care of the human. Even when Suhee didn't like his idea of staying away from his mate but he announced with finality in his words that he wouldn't face him till his mate was ready for that. His hyungs appreciated his efforts a lot because, for an alpha, keeping his pride on the side was a huge step.

Everything was going better, except for two major issues. One of which was unknown to the circle of friends that Taehyung's presence was kind of monitored by a few people in the pack, who were too curious to know about the male residing inside their unmated leader's house.

The second was the huge one that Taehyung wasn't eating or resting properly. During the past whole week, he barely ate or drank the servings he was provided with, leaving almost 7/8 portion of the meals, and it was worrying Jimin a lot. The poor beta tried harder only to get silent treatment as if the human decided to shut down himself from the world.

About resting, Jimin was always alert about hearing the heartbeat of the human, which calmed down only for an hour or two before the male would wake up panting and huffing, definitely after nightmares. The dark circles, red rims, and sunken cheeks were begging for attention, but the male paid no heed.

"If it goes on, he would never heal or worst-"

"Shh, we will find some way. Just keep the word to yourself, I don't want Luna to intermingle in this matter again." Yoongi hugged the beta and ruffled his hair to soothe him.

Both mates were sitting in the living room of Jungkook's house, which was more like Taehyung's and Jimin's house now as the owner hadn't seen the place for the past week. Jimin tried to talk to Jungkook about the same matter, but the alpha was too busy with the security issues of the pack, and in finding the coward Jae Wonhoo, who managed to escape their attack that he barely visited the pack. After Jungkook, he had to inform Suhee, which he avoided, thinking about the last event that happened. In the end, he shared his worries with his mate because Namjoon and Jin were also busy with security issues when Yoongi was sent back to the pack. 

"I can't see him like that. He looked so exhausted, so terrified all the time." Jimin sounded very regretful, and Yoongi knew the reason. With a heavy sigh, he engulfed the blond male in his embrace and rubbed his nose on his mating mark, releasing calming pheromones.

The beta basked in the warmth and let his mate do whatever he was doing to make him feel better, and it worked within a few minutes, that he fell asleep after a whole nighter.

The house was once again silent when Yoongi kept stroking Jimin's hair tenderly, his senses on alert just in case. The pack was under control for now. The problem was with borders, and when Jungkook was there, it could be considered solved.

The environment and the sweet smell of his mate were enough to lull him to sleep, but unfortunate to him because just when he was about to doze off, a sudden noise from the room made him jolt up in warning.

Jimin was not so good with deep sleep, so he also woke up when he heard the noise and looked at Yoongi's eyes, which were focused on the door.

Having the attention of his mate who was awake now, Yoongi got up from the sofa while Jimin led the way to open the door only to find Taehyung staring at the fallen jug of water which was now shattered across the floor with water splattered everywhere.

The beta was quick to suppress his gasp and rushed inside the room to get a frowning Taehyung away from the glass pieces, which could easily tear off his delicate skin. But just when he touched the clothed arm of the human, the male jerked it off as if coming out of the daze or maybe getting electrocuted and stepped away, only to stumble at his healing ankle but luckily, he plopped back on the bed.

Yoongi's lips were bloody red by the time Jimin retracted his hands back dejectedly with eyes screaming concern and hurt together. It hurt his wolf, but his human side was more guilty after glancing at the blue-haired. The same human who was brought weeks ago into the house without his will was having a pair of bread cheeks and hopeful eyes, which were now nowhere to be seen.

All he could witness were dull, hopeless eyes and sunken cheeks with skin losing its shine. He was petite and lean before, too, but now he looked more weak, and even his wrists looked paler.

Jimin silently made sure that Taehyung was not harmed in any way before he quickly trudged to get some water for the male first and then cleaned the mess. Yoongi stayed out of the room, basically out of Taehyung's eyes, not wanting to make him panic again. Keenly observed that the seemingly thirsty male barely took a few sips, and that also on high alert while continuously staring at Jimin who was busy cleaning and it broke his heart. Staring at the boy, he realized the depth of damage they all caused in some ways to the poor human, and the more hurtful thing was, he seemed nowhere closer to getting out of that.

Unknowingly, he clenched his fists tightly when Taehyung flinched just when he accidentally noticed him standing there staring at him. With a hurt heart, he saw the human scooting away, his wide eyes filled with fear piercing right through his own soul and at that moment, he decided to do anything to save the poor shattering soul as soon as possible because it was enough...
