Something New

Chapter 22

Taehyung was quivering with every step. He was quite sure like Jungkook, everyone else had smelt his distressed scent. But there was no way he could slow down his heart beat or his ragged breath. 

Jungkook, the kind alpha he was, as always, pulled him closer by his waist, despite the disgusted and angry glances of others, and released calming pheromones.

That worked a bit but absolutely nothing could help him with the amount of anxiety he was stuck with as the pack house came in sight.

He clenched his sweaty hands breathing in heavily as he instinctively moved closer to the alpha seeking the feelings of being safe.

Jiyong was still unconscious because of the injuries and Taehyung knew that there would be no talk before Jiyong woke up and healed considerably.

The omega was scared that Jiyong would twist the story even more. He knew that no one would believe him or Jungkook.

Maybe Jin and Sana. 

It made his stomach churn. They too would be frowned upon and mocked because of him. Everyone knew they were friends.

He didn't wish for his friends to be dragged into this, friends who warned him before. They would be so worried about them. He felt sorry for not listening to them. 

But even if he goes back in time he wouldn't listen to them.

Because Jungkook was worth it, worth whatever problem, anger and humiliation they would face today. Taehyung would never trade those times with the alpha for anything else.

Taehyung could see his friends running towards him, fear and concern evident on their faces. He was sure they were intelligent enough to guess what had happened.

He didn't want them to come to him, didn't want them to be dragged further into his mess. 

Behind his friends most other pack members too gathered around. The omega felt like he was an animal in zoo. 

Everyone was gawking at them. It was quite evident what had happened as Jungkook's arms were still wrapped around the omega and Jiyong was taken to the healer. 

He never had a good reputation as a good omega which was one of the main reason why Jiyong was unhappy with him but no one had ever looked at him with this much disgust in their eyes.  

He wished for the ground to open up and shallow him.

"put them in the lock up. Separate ones." the chief ordered. 

As much as Taehyung wanted to scream and resist, he was not going to. 

It would be better to get some time to think. Taehyung thought. Just he didn't want to be separated from the alpha. 

And it seemed like his wish had been granted as, though him and Jungkook were separated but they were still together.

"Tae" Jungkook whispered from the lock up that was right next to his. 

"Jung-" the omega couldn't control the whimpers bubbling from his throat. "Jungkookie! What do we do now? I'm sorry so sorry. You got stu-"

"hey hey baby stop. Calm down." the alpha interrupted him. "calm down okay? Why are you being sorry?"

When Jungkook was met with silence he continued, "don't be sorry baby. We are going to be fine. I will not let anyone harm you. 

We are not alone. I have my friends with me, with us. And your friends. They may not like me but they love you. So don't worry okay? 

We are together at this."

"Jungkook what are we gonna say? Even if I tell Jiyong was abusing me they would not believe me. Even if they do they won't take it seriously. The pack would believe whatever Jiyong says." Taehyung said in a shaky voice.
