STRANGE CREATURES AND THE CROWN

Alpha Jungkook went straight to Chaeryong’s suite after he left Jimin.

“Good morning……”

“Get lost!!” He yelled at the guards who tried greeting him and they stepped far away immediately.

Jungkook opened the door and closed it loudly which made Chaeryong come out, she was surprised to see him looking so angry.

“Son…….”

“What will you do if I kill him??” Jungkook asked.

Chaeryong was confused.

“What are you talking about??” She asked.

“I’m asking you what you’re going to do if I f**king kill Sanjook!!” Alpha Jungkook yelled and Chaeryong’s heart skipped a beat.

“You’re angry, can you calm down…..”

“I’m calm this way, answer my question” Jungkook snapped.

“He’s your brother…..”

“That’s why I’m asking you first because I would have killed him just about five minutes ago”

“Jeon Jungkook!!!” Chaeryong yelled.

“Tell your son to stay away from me!!!!” Jungkook growled angrily and Chaeryong stepped back.

“Let him know what he is in my Pack, the next time he disrespect me….I won’t think about it twice before tearing his soul apart, I’m sure you trust me to that extent, Chaeryong” Alpha Jungkook said and walked out of her sight.

Chaeryong touched her chest and breathe out.

“Eomeoni!!” Jimin rushed in.

“Are you okay??” He asked.

Chaeryong nodded.

“What did he do to you??” Jimin asked.

“Nothing, I’m fine” Chaeryong said and Jimin frowned.

“You look scared” He muttered.

“I’m fine” Chaeryong said.

Jimin turned to leave.

“Don’t go to him, I don’t think this is the best time” Chaeryong said.

“I don’t care” Jimin muttered and walked out of the suite.

He could get his scent clearly, he’s in his chamber.

“That crazy angry wolf” He gritted his teeth and started walking.

Soon he got to the chamber, the guards bowed and quickly opened the door for him. He entered and found him drinking.

“Hey…..”

“Leave” Jungkook cut him off.

“Can you try to control your anger at least??” Jimin asked.

“I said I want to be alone” Jungkook looked up.

“You’re not allowed to be alone anymore, from the moment I became your mate, being alone is canceled, you have to deal with me from now on” Jimin said.

“It was you who wanted to be alone for three days!!” Jungkook yelled and Jimin bashed his lashes.

“Wait…..all these…..is because I said I won’t talk to you for three days?” He asked.

“Not all okay?? I’m f**king angry right now, but you made everything worse….”

“Why would you try to kill your brother?? Why!” Jimin snapped.

“You don’t know anything, stay out of it” Jungkook muttered.

“Then let me know everything, I’ve wanted to ask you different questions also. If you’re the youngest in the royal family, why are you the Alpha? Why aren’t you close to your brothers? Why did you warn me to stay away from them?? Why?!” Jimin shouted.

Alpha Jungkook dropped the wine he was drinking.

“Isn’t it obvious??’ He asked.

“Tell me, nothing is obvious” Jimin muttered.

“It’s true that I’m the youngest, but I was the only one born with the Alpha blood, and aside that, I was chosen to be the Alpha right from when I was born, ten years ago, the moon goddess made me the Alpha over every pack, not just the Crescent Pack, I’m the dominant Alpha, I was granted power and strength more than any other wolves and their Alphas, I was never close with my brothers right since I was a child, they hate me a lot, they don’t want to have anything to do with me, I can still remember back then when I would cry because they never played with me, they say mean words to me, they told me to my face that they hated me, they hate the fact that I was going to be the Alpha, the only friends I had was Taehyung and Yoongi, thanks to them I was never bored. And right until this moment, my brothers hates me, I don’t like them either, because now I’m no more their weak little brother, I’m the Alpha, and I won’t take any disrespect from anyone, I don’t care who they are, I mark my territory and I have power to do whatever I want, when I say I will kill them if they try to mess with me I mean it, I don’t need permission from anybody before I do things the way I want, so don’t try to stop me next time, or try to threaten me with my weakness, I hate it” Jungkook said and Jimin was speechless.

There was total silence for a while, just the two staring at each other until Jimin broke it.

“I’m your mate” He muttered.

“Right” Jungkook muttered.

“I deserve to know every little thing going on in your life, I don’t need to tell you a lot about me because there’s nothing special about my family, my parents were held captive all their lives, I was born into the captivity, until the night you found me. But you…..apart from being the Alpha, you are from the royal family……so please, make sure you tell me everything going on in your life, I don’t want to be left out, I want to go through everything with you, I want to feel sad when you’re sad, I hate it when you keep things to yourself……it hurts…I’m sorry for threatening you when I don’t even know anything, but still, I will never watch you killing your brother with your two hands, don’t handle things like that, I…..” Jungkook grabbed his waist and slammed his lips on his own, cutting him off.

Jimin responded to the kiss as Jungkook ate up his lips hungrily, his tongue rolling in his mouth, getting his full taste, he kept pulling him impossibly close as he devoured his lips.

Jimin's lips were already swollen before he broke the kiss.

“Don’t ever leave my sight” He muttered, cupping his face.

Jimin nodded.

"I won’t" He said with a smile.

Jungkook hugged him tightly, inhaling his sweet scent.

Namjoon turned back from the window as Eopsin entered.

“You called for me your highness” He bowed.

“What’s going on in the castle?? It’s not the same” Namjoon said.

“Just now, the Alpha was angry with prince Sanjook, it was quite serious” Eopsin said.

“Really?? You mean….someone got hurt??” Namjoon asked and Eopsin nodded.

“Yes, it was the Luna who came to save the prince, however he was slightly injured” Eopsin said.

Namjoon scoffed.

“Where’s Sanjook now??” He asked.

“His suite your highness” Eopsin replied.

Namjoon immediately walked toward the door, Eopsin opened for him and he went out then Eopsin followed.

Sanjook could be seen drinking crazily with total anger on his face, his wound already disappeared though but the blood was still on his clothes.

He remembered how Jungkook had handled him and he laughed hysterically, he drank up a full cup of wine and then laughed again.

“How dare him” he muttered, his hands shaking. He couldn’t contain his anger and at that moment all he was thinking was how to kill him finally.

The thought was interrupted when the door opened and Chaeryong came in, she slammed the door close and Sanjook stood up.

“Moth…..” Before he could finish, a slap landed on his face which surprised him, his eyes widened.

“Mother….” He called slowly.

“Seriously?? Mother? Do you even take me as your mother at all??” Chaeryong asked and Sanjook swallowed.

“I never knew I gave birth to demons who never want to have anything to do with their brother, I thought everything was going to change but I should have known it wouldn’t, the moment he was chosen, what?? You want him dead? Do you know why he was chosen over you two?? It’s because you two are wicked!!!!” Chaeryong yelled.

“How do you expect the moon goddess to make people whose heart is covered with hatred the Alpha?? How?!!! You should count yourself lucky this time around son, the fact that you’re older than him doesn’t make you anywhere stronger than him, and you know that…….”

“You always do this mother, you always support him!!’

“You never for once acted like his brother!!” Chaeryong snapped and tears started rolling down her eyes.

“I should blame myself, I’m such a bad mother. I can’t even do anything seeing y’all act like strangers when you are brothers, fine I take the blame, that’s why I’m asking you to stop at this moment Sanjook, I won’t warn you again after this, give him the respect he deserves as the Alpha, I don’t care if you’re older or not, let peace reign for moon goddess sake!!! You bastard!!!!” She yelled angrily and turned to go, Namjoon was standing there.

“Get out of my way” Chaeryong glared at him and he moved.

She walked out and slammed the door close.

Sanjook sat down and poured himself another cup.

“I told you, it’s taking too long and I’m getting inpatient” He muttered.

“Did Jungkook really did all that to you?” Namjoon asked, looking at his bloody clothes.

“Who else??” Sanjook scoffed.

“You should stay away from him” Namjoon said and Sanjook looked up.

“What…..”

“Stay away and stop making it all obvious, can’t you just do that at least?? Even if you don’t want to accept, that kid is stronger than you and you know that, so stop it and wait for the right moment” Namjoon said and Sanjook rolled his eyes.

“Fine” He muttered.

Alpha Jungkook was sitting on the throne seat, his beta somewhere away from him, also sitting down, while the elders stood in their positions.

“You may start” Jungkook said.

“Last night, about fifteen houses were attacked by some unidentified creatures” one of the elders said and Jungkook raised his brows.

“It was reported by some witnesses that they aren’t outlaws, neither are they wolves” Another said and Alpha Jungkook frowned.

“If they are not rogues or wolves, then what are they???” He asked.

“We have no idea Alpha, but they seems to be quite dangerous”

There was silence until the Alpha spoke up.

“What do you think should be done…Inferno Dragon?” He asked

“Since we don’t know the type of creatures they are, I will suggest we don’t move straight into action for now, the royal warriors and guards should watch over the Pack until they appear again and confirm what they are” Inferno Dragon replied with a bow.

Alpha Jungkook nodded.

“Beta” He called and Taehyung stood up.

“Yes Alpha”

“Gather enough warriors tonight around the Pack, you know what to do, bring reports back to me if you find anything” Alpha Jungkook ordered.

“Sure Alpha” Taehyung bowed.

“Good, anything else??” Alpha Jungkook asked.

“Yes Alpha……”

“Go on”

Jimin just finished having his bath, he told his maids to leave so he was all alone. He sat down in front of the mirror, Bong on the floor making sounds, something suddenly caught Jimin’s attention, it was blinking light.

He looked at it and it was THE BOOK OF MYSTERIES, he was shocked.

“How…how did this got here??” He asked himself, he was really sure he left it in his suite and nobody would have brought it, so how??

His heart was beating fast, staring at the book which kept on glowing. He took the book and opened, like before it was all blank, so what’s this??

He sighed and ignored it, maybe it’s his own imagination, but the next time he looked at the mirror, he saw himself differently. Just like the first time, his face was looking so scary as his eyes was glowing in red, he have a crown on his head and blood was coming out of his eyes, nose, and ears.

He touched his nose and the blood stained his hand.

“Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!” He screamed and collapsed on the floor.
