BLACKROSE PACK

Long red curtains draped on the huge window's of the hall were screaming luxury and power, the golden embroidery at the ends made it look elegantly perfect.

Not only that, the hall was decorated with red flowers, golden garlands and perfectly contrasting chandeliers. Those little earthen lamps near the pool and the pillars made the hall look much more mesmerizing than it already was.

"Light those lamps above the chandelier too," Luna commanded the maids while her eyes kept roaming around making sure if everything was fine or not.

"Don't worry Luna, everything looks stunning," Mrs Chou assured putting her hand on Luna's shoulder and turned to look at the smiling lady and her own lips tugged up into a welcoming smile.

"Not at all worried, in fact, I'm excited. I'm going to be a grandma soon. And finally, everything is back to normal," she squealed at the thought of those little kids surrounding her.

Mrs Chou chuckled looking at Luna's child-like smile, she was happy looking at the sweet smiles everyone had on their faces. Blackrose finally had everything it deserved and they were more than glad for it.

"Ji-Hyun will be arriving soon, I'll go check on Momo and Wheein till then," Luna left after picking two soft little roses from the bucket, passing a sweet smile toward Mrs Chou.

"Always keep smiling just like that,"

The sun was shining brightly engulfing the room in a soft golden shine announcing the arrival of the awaiting spring. And in return, the red velvet sheets shimmered just like her velvety satin dress.

It hugged her curves like a longing lover draping to the floor like waterfalls. The golden embroideries shined like the sun's reflection in clear water, complementing her blonde sunbeam hair with affection and care.

“It looks nice?” her words were more of a question to herself rather than a compliment lacing with a little worry and insecurity.

“As beautiful as ever,” a soft voice whispered near her nape and she jerked forward in surprise.

“Why so sneaky?” a chuckle vibrated near her ear sending shivers down her spine.

“Just wanted to adore the Queen of my heart,” Jungkook pecked her shoulder softly. It was a thing between them, every time he called her that and showed even the slightest affection, she was bound to blush and her rosy cheeks were his favourite treat.

Y/N smiled turning to look him into the eyes but his soft hand caressed up her arm to her collarbone stopping her from doing so. She stared at him through the mirror when he smirked taking out a red coloured velvet jewellery box engraved with the golden Blackrose mark over it.

Y/N looked down and then back at him through the mirror raising an eyebrow at him, he smiled in return before slowly opening the box. He revealed the shining red ruby hanging down a thin gold chain, it was a heart-shaped pendant filled with red colour, shining bright like a star.

“For me? Suddenly?” she asked.

“Ahem . . . it's a thing in our family,” he leaned closer to her ear, his voice lowering a fraction to a whisper, “Father gave mother a ruby ring on their coronation and she adores it more than anything,” his hands traced over her nape as he moved her hair aside tenderly and tying the thin chained necklace around her neck.

“She says that ring is evidence of them being together,” he leaned brushing his lips on the pendent then moved to her collarbone brushing his tongue over his mark.

“This is ours,” his voice was a low whisper and Y/N smiled feeling his effect over her.

She turned around pecking his jawline right where his neck started. Jungkook's hands travelled over her waist pulling her closer. There was a moment of silence between them, a silence for them to feel each other's love. Y/N slowly leaned over his chest resting her hands on his back.

“I fancy you, my Alpha,” a soft loving smile crept over her lips listening to his heart accelerating with her words.

“The feelings are mutual, my Luna,”

✤

Every day awaits a new challenge, a new ray of hope and light. And today was the most glorious day for all of them; a day everybody has looked forward to.

The room was filled with so many people dressed in beautiful shimmering clothes, accompanied by their lovely mates and family. Their eyes fixated in only one direction with a sweet and proud smile on their faces, that was where their soon-to-be king and queen were seated elegantly.

Jungkook and Y/N sat on their royal cushioned thrones, hands resting on the golden manchette, giving a very prominent smile toward their people. Alpha Jeon and Luna were standing on either side of the two as well. They passed each other a glance and Jungkook extended his left hand for Y/N to hold.

She softly smiled before gladly intertwining their hands together. Their other family members were standing in the front looking so happy to see them together. Luna clapped her hands two times and two maids came forward with their gorgeous gilt royal crowns placed on a crimson cushioned salver, standing near Alpha and Luna.

“First of all, I want to thank everybody to come on this special occasion of our new Alpha's coronation,” Alpha thanked, his voice lacing with pride and satisfaction.

“I’m so proud to give my place to my son today with all the will and heart I've. He had proved himself to be worthy of this crown, and I've faith he'll protect his people like his own family. And if everyone accepts my decision I'd like to proceed,” there was authority in his voice but consciousness enough to show promise and respect to his people.

The crowd cheered, “Slainte!” raising their glasses with a clink. Alpha Jeon smiled placing the crown on Jungkook's head proudly but with delicacy. Luna raised her hand patting Y/N's head warmly.

“Being a queen is a huge responsibility, all of these people you need to think of as your own children. And I know you'll never disappoint me. Be a Luna the pack can rely on,” there was love in Luna's voice for her, her family and moreover that for her people.

“An Alpha protects the pack with his physical abilities like a backbone but he needs one too, to carry himself. You need to be more sensible. Can you take this huge responsibility? Will you be the one who'll be there for him and the pack when no one is?” she asked, trying to test her a little.

“I'll, with everything I got I promise I'll keep the pack my first priority!” Y/N smiled nodding her head proudly. Luna happily placed her crown over her head and leaned in to kiss her children's foreheads.

She caressed the side of Y/N's face and picked a square box placed right beside the crown cushion the maid came with. The box was a shiny red colour with the same Blackrose mark on it.

“This isn't my right to give you this . . . but I'm pretty sure if she was here—” a lone tear escaped the cage of her eyes even before she could complete and she quickly wiped it away.

“Just keep it close to you, it's a blessing from Martha,” she opened the box taking out a pair of gold bangles with a lot of red ruby stones embedded in it.

Jungkook looked away from it and Y/N felt his hand tightening on hers. Luna slowly slid them in her wrist and caressed it one last time. She knew about Martha, everybody did. The last thing Jungkook ever wanted was to taint her name as a traitor while she was the protective shield throughout his whole life.

The wound in his heart was still fresh and even a small memory of her was enough to hurt him but there was his family and Y/N with him. She kept him together in his darkest times, and for the first time in his life, he was happy to be able to depend on her. They stood up with their hands intertwined and Alpha and Luna got down from the dais, joining the others.

A satisfied smile was tugged on Luna's lips staring at Jungkook, he was not that training hard and arrogant son of his. There was a sense of care in him. He knew how to love and she knew that he finally knew what an Alpha actually is. There was peace in their hearts, finally everything seemed happy and healthy.

Taehyung hugged Jin with so much warmth and love as if he missed him like no other, a part of him finally complete. They sealed their powers as Clarissa and Helena blessed them to ignite it in the most urgent circumstances.

No one feared Taehyung anymore and Jin accepting him as a brother was more than enough for him too, he was happy, so happy. He finally got what he wanted all along.

Jimin finally got his never-ending smile back with Joy by his side, always there to help him, to embrace him. He was happy and ready to be by Jungkook's side as a brother he always wanted.

Namjoon and Hoseok looked up to him feeling proud and blessed to have an Alpha like him, they indeed pledged their loyalty to him and Jungkook never led them to disappointment.

The missing pieces of the puzzle were finally found and put back together. They were ready to hold onto the bond between the pieces and pack howled in acceptance bowing down to their Alpha and Luna with their utmost respect.

✤

A sensation of relief settled upon her realising the affectionate eyes of her family were staring at her. Yibo in his white collared up shirt with a black tux, a soft shy smile tugged on his lips with his cheeks tinted red looked handsome and adorable as always.

However, there was something different in him at that moment he smiled like he knew someone was staring at him with eyes full of love. She knew those eyes and she knew that expression too, it felt like he was replicating her expressions whenever Jungkook stared at her.

She was confused but there was a feeling bubbling in her stomach that something really good and unexpected was coming her way. Her eyes shifted to Taehyung and Yoongi, her brothers. They were standing right next to their parents accompanied by their gorgeous mates. A satisfied smile was pressed on their lips, eyes filled with admiration.

Her gaze followed to her father nodding at her with a peaceful smile. It was the same as the time when she won her first sword fight against Yoongi, that smile showed her how proud he was.

The golden ring in his hazel eyes sparkled looking at her with contentment and her own lips tugged up and eyes lowered a fraction in respect. Her eyes trailed off to the beautiful mates of her brothers and her eyes widened.

Jungkook chuckled beside her looking at her adorable expression, he pressed her hand tugging her down the dais. Y/N almost jumped over Moonbyul and engulfed her in a hug, parted in an instant looking down at her belly, Jungkook stood behind with a smile.

“I hope you had a safe journey,” Jungkook bowed his head at the elders in courtesy which they lovingly returned. Taehyung and Yoongi came over to hug him, a brotherly hug filled with admiration and respect.

“Congratulations!” Taehyung congratulated and Jungkook nodded greeting him back for his own coronation. Even if it wasn't this grand and just a duty passed on to him in those fearful circumstances, it was still a memory to be proud of.

“Congratulations to you too, I hope the friendship passed on to us from our elders will stay stalwart,” Jungkook smiled and Taehyung nodded, engulfing him back in a brotherly hug.

“A cup for the indestructible bond of Lockheart and Blackrose!” he raised his glass, passing another one to Jungkook.

“Slainte!” they cheered.

Jungkook sipped on the bitter liquid and placed it back on the table, his gaze settled on Yibo who was standing a little away from them shyly turning here and there. He stared at him for a while before coming forward, a curious expression on his face.

Y/N was there but all Yibo did was to turn here and there, sometimes hiding and sometimes looking for something or maybe someone.

“You aren't still upset, are you?” he placed a hand on his shoulder making him jerk back, alert, “Damn, just a hug,” he eyed him questioningly before squeezing him in a friendly hug.

Yibo patted his back returning the gesture, but his heart was racing. And Jungkook could feel his excitement and nervousness altogether. It felt like a replica of his own when Y/N called his name for the first time, his heart raced the same way in longing and love whenever she was was near.

“He found his mate, I can feel it!” listening to his wolf, Jungkook raised his eyes, following where Yibo was staring.

His gaze landed a girl packed in a midnight blue gown, her brunette hair dazzling down to the small of her back. She had soft hazel brown eyes, an angular face with soft blossom pink cheeks.

The look in her eyes when she stared at Yibo was enough to tell a million tales. How she pressed on the kids hands feeling the excitement and nervousness rushing through her veins. Jungkook's lips tugged up in a mischievous smirk.

“Beautiful mate, huh?” he whispered near his ear teasingly, “Her name is Alisa,” Yibo parted in an instant standing shocked and as straight as a bamboo tree.

Jungkook waved at the kids calling them over to him. Hazel and Evan ran to him as if they were waiting for that very moment from a decade followed by Alisa hesitantly.

“Oh my god, brother you're going to be a father!” Y/N almost yelled from the back once again engulfing Moonbyul tightly but this time with Yoongi squeezed in between.

“Y/N, spare me!” Yoongi struggled and Y/N parted with a giggle pinching their squishy cheeks afterwards.

“Just because my belly is not on public display, it doesn't mean I'm alone,” Solar pouted and for few seconds Y/N couldn't understand what she meant and tilted her head at Taehyung in confusion. He cleared his throat and smiled shyly his cheeks and neck were a bright red at that moment.

“Oh my, brother! You two mated?” Y/N tilted her neck in shock and Taehyung choked on his wine. He spat almost half of his mouthful on Yoongi. The older hissed half in anger half in the attempt to hide the laughter bubbling up his throat.

“Y/N . . . this isn't the right place,” Solar came near her, lowering her voice for only a few of them to listen, “I'll tell you everything later. Trust me, it was a fucking great experience!” she giggled earning a slight smack on her head from her mate.

“Language!” Taehyung scolded and a roll of laughter passed through them all. The pair of the former Alpha and Lunas smiled looking at them from afar.

“I'm so proud of you, brother!” Y/N teased wiggling her eyebrows together. Taehyung chuckled feeling the wave of relief washing over himself, her cheerfulness was her greatest power and looking at how she cherished it made him feel overwhelmed.

“Yibo wants to introduce you all to someone,” Jungkook's voice boomed from the other side.

Everybody turned their heads toward him in unison and Jungkook's sudden announcement caught Yibo off guard. He had an expression full of shock plastered over his jade-like handsome face.

Jungkook walked over to Y/N's side with Evan and Hazel in his arms, leaving Alisa right beside Yibo.

“Yibo? I missed you so much!” Y/N hugged him tightly and Yibo smiled lovingly, returning the hug to her.

“I missed you too!” Yibo hugged her back and Y/N stepped away glancing at Alisa once before hugging Jungkook's arm. All of them were staring at the young ones with curious eyes making Yibo adjust his tux in nervousness again and again.

“Brother must be waiting, excuse me,” Alisa tugged a strand of her brunette hair behind her ear smiling awkwardly.

“Min-ho is busy with father . . . there,” Jungkook eyed in his father's direction. Min-ho was talking with Alpha Ji-sun and Min-ho accompanied by their mates.

Alisa hesitantly opened her mouth making a soft awkward ‘oh’ sound. Jungkook's smirk turned more prominent looking at Yibo's flushed face. His jade-like milky skin was turning red with time, so red that it felt like he was holding his breath.

Jungkook was provoking him to tell everyone about Alisa, she was a good girl with an incredibly gentle personality. He was confused as to why Yibo was so shocked and restraining himself. Introducing your mate was a thing they were proud of, why he looked so confused and nervous?

“If you excuse me, I've few things to settle!” Yibo announced, leaving right after that.

Y/N looked at Alisa and then Jungkook who was still looking in the direction Yibo left, Solar and Moonbyul stared at Alisa feeling a sudden pity over her. Her eyes were slowly pooling with tears and her fidgeting fingers from before were clenched in a tight fist now.

“Excuse me,” she left without a second glance in their direction.

“You know her?” Y/N asked, tugging at Jungkook's arm.

“Yes. Min-ho's former Beta's daughter; his sister,” he adverted his eyes to meet her eyes.

“Yibo's mate,”
