"I will burn him alive."

"No."

"Burry him alive!"

"Also, no."

"Fuck this, imma break his neck who the fuck is it?" Jungkook hisses, his eyes glowing a scary dark red color as he slams his hands on the table, startling both his father and his mate that are sitting before him. 

"That's the problem, we don't know who it is," Jin sighs and pinches his nose. The two youngers spend the morning explaining him what happened yesterday. That also leaded to Taehyung explaining about the stalker he has supposedly had since their trip to Busan. As Taehyung kept explaining what different situations he has been in because of this mysterious guy, Jungkook has become progressively more and more angry. Well, it's probably Jeon who's having a fit and is trying to take over.

Just as Taehyung had predicted, he's probably going to have his own personal guard dog from now on because Jungkook is so riled up about him being followed. Which is understandable, Taehyung would have been just as possessive if it was Jungkook who had been followed around.

"This man hasn't done anything, so I think we should refrain from ripping his head off. I don't know what his deal is, but I'm getting really curious," Taehyung states, "he has just been in the shadows and observed me all this time."

"But what if he's just planning on taking you away? Oh no, what if he's a kidnapper?" Jungkook stresses.

"I think he would have done that already then, he has had countless opportunities to do that," Taehyung replies.

"Well, that makes me feel bad... I didn't protect you-"

"That's actually what you did though," Taehyung states and can't help but chuckle slightly when Jungkook's eyes turn back to brown and he pouts slightly. He should have asked Taehyung if he should've come and picked him up... or maybe even just had him on the phone. It could have ended in horror if Jungkook hadn't seen-... hold on... 

Taehyung doesn't get to study him for long before his facial expression once again changes, this time with confusion.

"Wait... in the shadows? Always?"

Taehyung frowns and nods, "yeah, I have only seen him close one time and that was when I saw him on the hotel in Busan. I followed him yesterday because I haven't seen anything aside from his silhouette and his eyes since then..."

"So he... lead you to those alphas?" Jin questions. 

"I don't know... he disappeared before they found me..." Taehyung says and taps his chin slightly. Jin leans back in his chair with a sigh, he feels like this is some stupid riddle none of them can seem to figure out. Why would Taehyung be stalked? Sure, he's overly handsome, but almost everyone who has seen him in his every day life knows he has Jungkook as mate, therefore the threat of a pure-blood should be enough to make people think twice before lying a hand on the beautiful omega. 

"I don't think he lead you there on purpose," Jungkook breaks his stream of thoughts. His eyes are looking around as if his mind is trying to put all the missing pieces together, "I saw him too..."

Now it's Taehyung time to be confused. He has never seen the shadow whenever Jungkook has been near... only when...

"Did he find you...?"

"Yes," Jungkook says and looks up, "I felt the pain that you were in danger, but I had no idea where to go. I saw a-a shadow? I don't know why, but I just chose to follow it because I was so panicked... it lead me straight to you."

"So, the shadow dude is good?" Jin breaks in.

"Depends on if he lead me to those alphas on purpose or not... well, I guess he did own up to his mistake by collecting Jungkook?" Taehyung mumbles, more to himself. 

"Or else he would be dead right now-"

"Can you relax? I don't need a murder on my conscience just because Jeon is having a moment," Jin grabs his son's shoulder and makes sure he doesn't stand up from the chair he's sitting in. They are in the café that's currently free from customers, considering it's still working hours. 

Jungkook blinks and his eyes turn back to brown again while his cheeks heat up. He bites his lip. He really can't control Jeon today, at least he isn't hyped about shifting, he just want to butt into their business even though Jungkook can take care of it just fine.

"S-Sorry..."

"Anyway, there will be customers soon. Later, we can discuss this further. Have you considered contacting the police Taehyung?" Jin asks and stands up. He gently fastens his apron around his waist and pushes Jungkook's towards him.

"Nah... he hasn't talked to me or anything, so I think it would be a little drastic to call the police," he states, "I think we'll just have to wait until we get a chance to confront him."

"Yeah, the police is hella corrupt here anyway," Jin scoffs before he turns around and heads for the kitchen, before entering he adds; "feel free to stay here as long you want."

Taehyung nods after him and turns back towards Jungkook who's now also putting on his apron. Taehyung should probably get going too, his shift starts at the kindergarten soon. However, he hesitates as he thinks over what happened yesterday. He isn't necessarily scared of going to work now, considering it's still broad daylight... but tonight, what should he do then?

"Uhm... Jungkook?" he timidly asks. He doesn't know why he's getting shy all of a sudden, but what he's about to ask is both embarrassing and he knows for a fact that Jungkook is going to freak out. 

"Yeah?" the boy looks back at him with awaiting eyes.

"Can you like... m-maybe pick me up after work? And..." he licks his lips, "and can I maybe s-sleep here... again?"

Jungkook stares at him for a good 10 seconds before his mind finally gets out of the type of dream state it got pushed into so suddenly. Sure, he and Taehyung just did sleep together but imagine if it... actually became like a regular thing? 

Jungkook has to bite his lip and grab the edge of the table in order to not jump around in success. He knows he would never have build up the courage to ask Taehyung that, so he's glad the elder did it instead. Sleeping together often not only makes Jungkook sleep like a baby in it's mother's arms, it also gives peace on the line between Jungkook and Jeon which hasn't been the case since Jungkook was born.

"Yes! I-I mean... of course," he says shyly and feels his cheeks get warm again. He doesn't want to seem too naïve...

"Okay, 9:30 pm then?" Taehyung questions and stands up, Jungkook quickly scrambles to his feet too in order to say goodbye.

"S-Sounds good," he says in return. He gulps slightly as Taehyung walks over to him and gently wraps his arms around his neck. His fingers touches the soft hair and tugs it slightly, it's so satisfying to do with Jungkook's mildly long locks. He just wants to run his hands through it all the damn time.

"Bye then," he whispers with a smirk before he leans in and gives Jungkook a deep kiss. The younger sighs and gladly kisses back. It's hard to describe how much Jungkook wants to get used to this, but it doesn't seem to be working out so far. 

The kiss stops and they both pull back with a smile.

"See you," Taehyung walks over towards the door and waves gently. Jungkook gives him a shy one in return and his eyes follow the blue-haired boy all the time until he's completely out of view. The giddy feeling filling up his chest is almost too much for him to handle.

"I just burst the biggest sub-conscious 'uwu' ever, what-" Jin, who must have returned from the kitchen, says as he leans against the table with a hand over his chest. 

Jungkook giggles and walks over to him. Jin joins his laughter before he spreads out his arms and let's his muscular son fall into a tight hug against his chest. The elder kisses his son's hair gently before squeezing Jungkook as tight as he can.

"I'm so proud of you," he says.

"Thanks dad," Jungkook giggles and hugs back. Maybe his life isn't as bad as he portrayed it to be.

Okay, I have stared at the gif at the top of the chap for the last 30 min. It's just like Jungkook being on the edge to shift and Taehyung just gently stopping him by tapping his chin-... ANYWAY-

HAPPY NEW YEAR!💜
