🎶"Deeper, deeper, the wound just gets deeper
Like pieces of broken glass that I can't reverse
Deeper, it's just the heart that hurts every day
(You) who was punished in my stead,
You who were only delicate and fragile" 🎶

▬▬▬▬▬▬ Stigma, Kim Taehyung

▣▣▣▣▣▣▣

Taehyung woke up the next day groaning tiredly as he tried to move his body but his movement was blocked by two strong muscular arms wrapped around his body, spooning him.

A pout immediately forms on his lips when he felt that he couldn't turn and see the beautiful face of his mate.

He smirks when a naughty idea crosses his mind.

Taehyung bit his lip and slowly arched his body against Jungkook's making the younger moan and loosen his arms around the older's waist, making them attach to his hips instead.

"Ahh Taehyung-ah" He mumbled sleepily as Taehyung smiled victoriously and silently got out of the bed, wrapping his cold sore body with the bedsheets.

His lower body was hurting so badly that the next step he took, Taehyung felt his legs collapse with the lack of strength and he fell on the floor with a loud noise immediately waking the younger.

Jungkook frowned confused when he saw Taehyung on the floor, rubbing his body at the pain.

"What are you doing there?" He asked tilting his head sleepily, looking like an adorable bunny

Taehyung glared at Jungkook sharply making the younger gulp.

"Whose fault do you think that is you stupid horny alpha!" Taehyung said frustrated as an angry pout formed on his swollen lips.

The confusion on Jungkook's face was now replaced by an evil smirk as his eyes fell on Taehyung's bruised swollen lips, which showed evidence of what they did yesterday.

"You can't honestly blame me after moaning so prettily  yesterday whenever I touched you, It could turn even a straight man gay and a lesbian into straight!"

"Shut up and come pick me up." Taehyung snapped, his cheeks flushing pink at Jungkook's words

"Aw, are you shy my baby? I wonder where this shyness went yesterday when you begged for release." Jungkook teases as he wraps his arms around the older's body, picking him up easily as if he weighed nothing

"Stop it Jungkook or I'll make you regret it," Taehyung said rolling his eyes, and immediately flinched as he was thrown on the bed with Jungkook hovering over him.

"You'll make me regret? Are you sure about that V-sshi?" Jungkook asks intensely, his hot breath fanning over Taehyung's sensitive neck.

He shivered but quickly ignored the tingles that were erupting inside his stomach as he placed a penetrating hand over Jungkook's naked chest.

"You know Jungkook, It's not good to challenge me," Taehyung whispered, making his voice purposely deeper as his long fingers trailed from the Jungtiddies (😏🤣) and down the younger's delicious abs which were covered in dark bruises that he had inflicted during the night.

Jungkook's breath hitched as he felt Taehyung's slender fingers move seductively over his torso, loving how each touch was so addictive and seemed to ignite a blooming fire inside him.

"And why is that?" Jungkook asks voice slightly shaking when Taehyung's fingers brushed his nipples

"Because-" Taehyung started to say, staring deeply into the younger's eyes.

It was as if the vampire was gazing and reading his soul just by a single glance.

"Because?" Jungkook pushed, letting Taehyung do whatever he want as he silently watched the older's fingers brushing the exact certain spots on his body that were more sensitive than the others.

"Because both you and I know that, I can defeat you easily with just one look," Taehyung whispered, his voice husky and the next second Jungkook felt his body getting pushed down onto the soft mattress as he looked up surprised to see Taehyung sitting on top of him, looking at him with that sexy smirk of his.

"Ahh god V, you're going to be the death of me," Jungkook said clutching his chest while closing his eyes, not being able to meet the older's intense stare

However, his eyes snapped open when he heard the melody of Taehyung's chuckle.

"You're so cute Jungkook." Taehyung said giggly while his hands squeezed Jungkook's chubby cheeks, loving the soft flesh "Look at you, Already getting so weak when all I did was stare at you."

"It's because I love you" Jungkook whispered immediately making Taehyung choke and go silent.

Yeah, it was true that they had exchanged 'I love you ' yesterday night while they took a very intimate step further into their relationship but saying it aloud in the daytime when either of them wasn't lost in the pleasure of sex, made it somehow feel even more alive.

Taehyung felt blood rushing into his cheeks as he looked down, suddenly losing all the confidence he had.

"You should go bath," He said still not meeting the younger's eyes

he knew whatever he did was wrong but somehow he couldn't make himself say those words.

"Yeah," Jungkook said softly, his hand immediately raising to cress Taehyung's cheeks

A comfortable silence filled between them as both the boys got lost in their world of thoughts.

Suddenly a sharp knock came on the door making both Taehyung and Jungkook jump, startled from the sudden noise.

"I'll go check it, you can go bath Jungkook-ah. You have lots of work to do as the pack leader, right?" Taehyung said with a wide fake smile

Jungkook nodded immediately sensing the odd tone in the older's words but shrugged it off and quickly went into the bathroom as Taehyung covered his naked body with a robe.

As soon as he heard Jungkook's door click shut, Taehyung rushed to open the door knowing very well who was on the other side.

Perks of being a Half Vampire creature.

"Jiminie" Taehyung mumbled and enveloped the older in a warm hug making Jimin smile sadly and hug back.

"I came to remind you but looks like you already know," Jimin said chuckling softly as he patted Taehyung's messy hair

"To remind me about what?" Taehyung asks looking a little lost

"It's May 23 Taetae" Jimin whispered softly and instantly felt Taehyung go still in his arms.

"I-" He tried to say but nothing other than sobs came from his mouth as he felt his limbs weaken and his body-hugging the floor once again.

The only difference was that this type he wished he could continue to be there, under the floor... buried deep inside the earth because that is where he deserves to be.

"I g-got so l-lost with j-jungkook Jiminie th-that I forgot w-why I am w-with him in the first place," Taehyung whispered tears falling from his eyes as he felt his heart bellow in pain.

"Sshh taetae, don't cry. You know I will always be there for you." Jimin whispers rocking a shaking Taehyung in a certain rhythm as he could feel his best friend's sadness wash over inside him.

"How c-could I forget i-it! I-I a-am su-such an h-horrible person." Taehyung said trying to slap himself but Jimin quickly held his hands firmly

"Taetae please don't cry. It's okay, you've been so busy trying to fulfill his last wish, I know he would understand. Stop blaming yourself for everything." Jimin scolded while wiping the wet tears from Taehyung's cheeks.

"But Jiminie, I can never win this battle that I am against. I feel so lonely, so fucking tired from hiding myself, always lying and now I think I did something even worse. I felt something that was prohibited Jiminie." Taehyung whispered trembling as Jimin cried softly seeing the miserable shape of the most important person in his life.

"Nothing is prohibited Tae. It's okay. Everything is okay." Jimin said softly while hugging the younger tightly

"B-But I am doing injustice to Jungkook. I was so invested in fulfilling hyung's last wish that I forgot about both of our feelings. Now it all messed up! Our all plans are spoiled because I couldn't hold my fucking heart from falling for someone who was never meant to be mine."

"You're in love with Jungkook, aren't you?" Jimin asked with a kind smile making Taehyung nod.

He felt so exhausted that all he wanted was to rest, rest in Jimin's arms while forgetting about everything else.

He wanted to forget.

Forget that he was hiding who he truly was.

Forget that he was only pretending to be Jungkook's Taetae.

Forget that he was pretending to be his dead brother.
