9: Invincible

Escape The Fate/Lindsey Sterling - Invincible

Jungkook's POV

I never would have thought to have met my mate. For a while I started to think I didn't have one. Kalina wouldn't leave me alone about it. Goddess I wished so many times she would but nope she didn't until she leaves for a couple of months. During that time I'm really happy because she's not bothering me. She's my friend and that's all I consider her to be plus I found him.

Oh my goddess I found him. I found my mate and I couldn't be happier. I'm not going to be selfish and take him by force. He's to precious to do so.

When the others and I expect for Kalina first got here we went to an art gallery that is apparently owned by his family. That's where I met him. We saw some pictures that had been taken and they were really good. We asked him who took them and he told us he did. All of us bought the one we had seen and seven more. Once we got home I took them to my studio and put them in a vault that is hidden under the floor under the bed. The others minus Kalina know that the pictures were in the studio.

I saw my mate every day but I couldn't be around him. He deserved to find his other mate as a werewolf first. I don't want to take that from him even with  the mindset he has on the subject.

I have always thought that anyone would be extremely stupid to reject him. He had always mentioned that his mate could reject him just as good as they could accept him. He is one of the few that have been rejected but also a mate to a Lycan. Some who are werewolves and are mates to Lycans are either stolen from their original mate or they cheat in them. I would not done that to Tae. As much as I would like to believe I would let him have a life with his first mate if he hadn't of rejected him, I don't think I would have survived it.

I think after some time my Lycan would tried to take over or would take over to get our mate or he would completely destroy the whole pack just to get his mate. I don't want to think about that. I don't ever want Taehyung to be scared of me. That is one of my fears. His fear in me would break me but he would be scared of the rest of us plus himself afterwards. I don't want that happening but genuinely think that it won't.

I believe in him that he's going accept himself, me, and the ones of our pack.

On Taehyung's birthday Hoseok, Namjoon, Jin, and I over heard Taehyung and his friends talking. For as long as I've known him he has always wanted but not to find his mate because he has always had the feeling that he was going to be rejected. 

Jimin looked behind him and made a comment about wanting to be mated to one of us since Yoongi doesn't go to school with us. We don't normally don't keep company with werewolves but we actually want to change that but not because of the fact that all of us has a mate that was a werewolf. Yoongi, Hoseok, and Jimin mated and we did the pack initiation yesterday.

All four of us ever since we were little we have had this mindset. We try not to be intimidating but we can't help that we are.

During lunch Taehyung found his mate and it had to be that asshole alpha who sleeps with everyone who gives him the attention he wants while making fun of those who don't and Tae is one of those.

From the moment Tae found out who his mate was he got annoyed extremely annoyed from the way he was acting. From the shocked look on everyone's face who was looking at him it shocked them by the way he was acting.

The he came back to school because of his wolf hurting the slut of the school provoked him so he almost attacked her. If it wasn't for me he would have. I stopped him and we left the school. When he is around me he's calmer but he can still get mad and provoked then phase.

Lycans don't attack without reason Taehyung is the same way. He has to have a reason to attack someone. Yuna provoked him but I didn't want him attacking anyone so I stopped him and calmed him down before he did anything. I took him away from the situation. I took him to a place that belonged to me but now belongs to him as well. So all in all it's our place.

That day I told him that he was my mate and gave him his space to think about it. During that time Namjoon, Jin, Hoseok, Yoongi, and I went to Gwangju for a few days but not long enough for Taehyung to question if I was lying about me telling him that he is my mate which is completely true I would never lie like that to my mate.

Some people have and it's mostly werewolves who do that. Lycans can't exactly do that since their mates change with them unless they are already a Lycan who will feel the pull to their true mate.

Taehyung tried to accept Minho's rejection but Minho wouldn't let him. That boy is damn annoying and yes I can call him a boy I'm older than him by like two hundred years. I'm just guessing I'm not the best at math and I don't really keep up with my age.

I'm sure when Tae and I mated Minho felt it the way Taehyung had all those times before. Minho deserves the pain som I'm not going to apologize for that since he hasn't and I don't thing he ever will.

I don't consider Kalina a friend anymore since she is trying to take me away from Tae and invaded my personal space. One that only Taehyung is allowed to go in and she harmed a friend and soon to be family member of mine. She has not just me to worry about. She has five others that consists of Jimin's mates, best friend also known his soulmate, and friends. She has a lot of people who hate her now.

The Alpha of the pack that Taehyung's family and friends belong to I have had an off feeling about him. I always have but we only stayed because of Taehyung and Jimin. We didn't invite Kalina to come with us. She followed us Yoongi, Hoseok, and Jin were against her coming Namjoon and I didn't care if she did or not. I now understand why they didn't like her along with why they didn't want her coming. I now wish she didn't and I wish that she hadn't have come back.

All she's done is hurt us because she jealous. Every time we have asked her if she has found her mate I see the lie in her eyes. I know the others see it too. Every time when I see it there I wonder why she doesn't tell us the truth. Deep down I know why she doesn't tell us the truth.

Today we are going to a hearing  because Taehyung's parents and friends pack council wants to know her end of what happened and not just what happened yesterday. Mine, Namjoon, and Hoseok's uncle is coming again to help resolve the situation once again.

Why won't these assholes understand that Taehyung is my mate? My uncle asked if Tae accepted the rejection and we told him that he didn't immediately but he was going to some time ago but Minho wouldn't let him. He told us to not do anything until he gets there.

We have eyes on Kalina tracking her every move since she is no longer in the country she's in Taiwan now.

As I take a shower Taehyung comes in and back hugs me burying his face in my back.

"Are you ok Kookie." He asks slightly muffled.

"Yeah I'm fine just thinking."

"About what?"

"Everything that's happened."

The two of us wash off and gets out before getting out and gets ready for the hearing. When we are done we head to the kitchen where Jin has just finished cooking breakfast. We help him  set the table as everyone else comes down. All of us eat before leaving. We all go in our own vehicles. When we get there we see that all of the packs warriors are here. They do know that they won't be able to stop us. We wait for Namjoon, Hoseok, and my uncle to get here before all of us head inside.

Once inside we go to our respective seats.

We don't have to wait long for everyone else to arrive Minho comes in with his arm in a cast and his father is mostly healed up except for his leg so he is using crutches. I don't think he actually needs them since Minho's arm should already be healed by now. It's for sympathy.

Ten men sit at a long table at the other end of the room the rest of the room is filled with fifteen or so long bench's and a couple of tables.

The men stand up as Alpha Choi and Minho walk into the room. I watch Tae as his gaze falls on one of the elders.

What's going through your head my love?

I get an off feeling from Elder Samson. When we requested to move here they agreed but only if my father agreed to having his rank put in as omega or beta. My father chose omega to appease them. I think he had something to do with that.

If he did it was to ensure that your father wasn't going to demand or take leadership but from what I have gotten from your father he is the next in line of his old pack and he doesn't actually want it.

You are right he doesn't that's why we are here. My parents are free spirits but not at the moment Alpha Choi compromised that. He threatened to hurt them.

I don't say anything else. I know that Tae can feel my anger so he takes my hand in his stroking my thumb with his.

"Since everyone is here let's get on with this. I just want a rightful punishment for what Mr. Kim has done to me and Minho my son. I wouldn't imagine the king would be to happy if the palaces name was tarnished that." Alpha Choi says making me want to roll my eyes.

"Do you want the palaces involvement? We can make that happen even more than it already is. You did however provoke one of the Princes mates. Taehyung was within his rights. Would you prefer if King Jung were to fix the situation which most likely wouldn't end well for you or your pack. By that I mean he would make it as if the pack never existed. He would make the members of the pack join other packs. He would erase everything that had anything to do with it. He knows everything that goes on here. All because his son and Nephews are here along with their mates. Had you and your son not provoked either of them we wouldn't be here. You are on no terms able to make a negotiation. Don't think that you are going to get away with anything you are planning. I can let them use your warriors and wipe them out. Then maybe we can come to an agreement." My uncle says done with the whole situation.

"I.. I.. did not provoke them. Neither did my son. Why would we do that to our own pack members?" Alpha Choi stutters out.

"One thing Alpha Choi, I would think twice before lying again. All of us know that you tried to force a mated Lycan to leave his mate who is a nephew of the king mind you to mate with your future Alpha who is a werewolf. You do know that if he were bite him he would die. Have we not told all of you that? You would kill yourself? You would kill your son? Is it worth it?" My uncle asks Minho and his father.

"How do you know I'm an Alpha. Alpha blood is strong." Minho says arrogantly.

"Ah I see now. Taehyung do it." My uncle says making everyone except our group confused.

"I, Kim Taehyung accept your rejection Choi Minho. Your new mate will make you happy. Yuna is the perfect mate for you because you both are delusional." He says blankly before a smirk crosses his face.

"You see Choi Minho, I can tell that you are nothing but a spoiled brat that has never been told in his life. Take this to the palace we don't mind. Nothing good would come of it on your end. We are leaving." My uncle says as our group gets us as he does.

"Where is your loyalty to the pack?" One of the Elders asks.

"You are no longer my pack. My loyalty is to my new one. I am only helping my family and friends whom was threatened." Taehyung says with a slight growl before we all leave.

Once outside my uncle tells us that he will talk to Hoseok's father to discuss what needs to be done then he will get back to us afterwards.

We all tell him bye and heads to our house.

Before we get to the door Jin stops Namjoon.

"We're going to go for a run." Jin says making us nod.

I grab Tae's hand.

"We're going to have a photography session." I says making Yoongi, Hoseok, and Jimin nod before going inside.

Taehyung and I go to my studio.

For us a photography session has two meanings.

"You are so photogenic my little tiger."

"So are you muscle bunny."

"You are my muse my love and will always be. I'm going to draw you next time."

"Oh really? How do you want me when that happens?" He asks biting his bottom lip as he walks over to me placing his hands flat on my chest.

"Hmm you in a natural position on the bed asleep or not. Maybe looking at me sleepily or you may have just woken up. There are many ways I can have you pose." I say leaning towards him lightly speaking in his ear before kissing it before kissing his neck.

I kiss up and down his neck. I kiss his jaw, cheek, and finally his lips. I tease his lips with my tongue making him whine when I move my tongue away. I trace the seam of his lips not teasing this time which makes him open up.

Our tongues mingle until we need to breathe and has to pull away. Breathing heavily we lean our heads against one another.

"I love you." He says panting as he looks into my soul through my eyes.

"I love you too. Nothing will ever change that." I say making him smile.

The two of us move away from each other before I drag him away to the connected bedroom.

"Jimin, you know Taehyung a whole lot better than I do and I want him to have some kind of good outcome during this whole shit situation."

"What are you planning?"

"I want to propose to Taehyung." I say making his eyes light up.

"Yes! Come hither child. I will tell you everything that you need to do." He says practically jumping up and down like a child.

"Wait a minute did you just call me a child?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact I did. Now sit your ass down and listen to what I'm about to tell you."

Oh goddess what have I gotten myself into by asking him for help? I'm not sure if  I regret my decision of asking him. Maybe I should have asked Baekhyun and Chanyeol.
