Work Text:
Jimin sometimes considered himself to be the luckiest omega in the entire world. He’s grown up with kind and patient parents who loved him and loved each other, he’d went to a great school where he’d met and made many friends including his platonic alpha soulmate Taehyung, nailed his first interview for his dream job and got a fantastic offer, and had married and mated the alpha of his dreams all before turning 30. Not to mention with his fluffy blonde hair, bright green eyes and full plump lips, he was considered to be quite beautiful though Jimin had always been very hard on himself when it came to his own body image. He didn’t take any of this for granted, however, and was grateful for every single thing he’d been given.
When he’d met Jungkook, it had been love at first sight. They’d met in college as they shared an economics class. Jimin was studying to be an accountant while Jungkook was getting a business degree to take over his father’s extremely successful entertainment business someday. Jungkook was something like a celebrity and everyone talked about him so it was almost like being starstruck when Jimin had noticed the alpha in his classroom. He’d never spoken to him but the rumors about how gorgeous the alpha was were certainly accurate. With those round doe eyes and dark jaw length hair he was a sight to see and his scent was so pleasing, simple sandalwood.
Jimin wouldn’t admit it until months later but he’d been instantly smitten with the alpha. Of course he never thought anything would come of it as they both lived in very different worlds. But to the omega’s surprise the alpha had approached him after that first week of class and asked for a simple coffee date at a local cafe. Jimin had been shocked to say the least. He’d only had one boyfriend and it hadn’t been serious. Even though most people called him beautiful he’d always felt like he was a little too short for a man, a little too plump and he also was very self conscious about the size of his hands which were smaller than average. But the alpha never mentioned any of those things, instead complimenting Jimin on how beautiful he was on the evening of their first date.
From there, the rest is history.
Jimin and Jungkook had stuck to each other like glue and when they’d graduated they moved in with each other right away. It wasn’t long before Jimin wore a ring on his left ring finger and wedding invitations were being sent out. It was a grand affair, as any CEO’s wedding would be, and Jimin had truly felt breathtakingly beautiful that day. He’d walked down the aisle toward his handsome mate with a huge smile on his face, so ready to spend the rest of his life with the man and alpha he loved.
They’d gotten mated six months later and Jungkook had taken on the CEO position shortly thereafter. The alpha had been doing an amazing job ever since, though it had recently become incredibly busy with Jungkook having to spend a lot of late nights in the office. But Jimin supported his mate and knew without a doubt that Jungkook would still make time for him.
So he was shocked when he didn’t.
Or at least it certainly didn’t seem like the alpha was putting forth much of an effort to spend time with his mate. They’d made a point each day to at least spend an hour together. Whether that was dinner or a show or on really good nights in Jimin’s opinion several rounds of passionate lovemaking. They’d even talked about starting a family so Jimin had stopped taking his suppressants and knew his heat would be coming within the next couple months. But then Jungkook had gotten busy and it seemed like he’d forgotten.
It was always “I won’t be home until late” or “don’t wait up” texts from his mate as their dinner got cold on the table or when Jimin had a movie picked out he knew Jungkook would love and the alpha said he was just too tired from work to watch it and went straight to bed after walking through the door. It had been weeks…and weeks since Jimin had actually spent quality time with his mate. His wolf was anxious, desperate to feel that closeness again.
He tried to be rational, to understand his hardworking mate. But after a solid month of just seeing his mate in passing and hardly having the energy to get out of bed each morning he was so depressed he knew he had to do something.
He wondered if it was possibly not just work. His pessimistic self argued that maybe he was the problem from his years of being self conscious about his body image. Was he not pretty enough for his alpha anymore? Did Jungkook not desire him like he used to? Was there…someone else? Jimin tried his very best to not let these thoughts affect him but it was difficult to not focus on them when he was all alone the majority of his time. He did hang out with Taehyung sometimes which helped but it stopped helping when one day the concerned protective alpha best friend asked him about it.
“Minnie, what’s going on? You’ve barely touched your food,” Taehyung pointed to the untouched meal.
Jimin blushed and shook his head, making a point to take a bite just to prove he would eat. Taehyung gave him a pointed look.
”Spill. Something is wrong. You’ve been just blah for weeks. Don’t think I didn’t notice,” Taehyung accused and Jimin squirmed in his seat, having been caught by the person who besides Jungkook knew him the best.
He didn’t really want to talk about it but he knew that Taehyung wouldn’t let it go so he sighed and bowed his head.
”I’m…worried,” Jimin began, unsure of even what he was truly worried about but he decided to just lay everything out for his best friend. “Jungkook has been super busy at work and he comes home very late most nights, which is fine. I know he’s busy, I’m not saying I’m upset over him working so hard. He just always promised to make time for me and I…We haven’t spent time together, real time together, in weeks, Tae. I miss my alpha. I can’t even remember the last time he touched me or the last time we kissed.” Jimin was crying by the end of it and Taehyung’s concerned expression was enough to wrench the first sob from his chest.
“Minnie, I had no idea. I’m so sorry. I am sure Jungkook just doesn’t realize it. Have you talked with him?” Taehyung asked.
Jimin sighed. “I’ve tried to bring it up but he’s always busy. Most nights he literally walks in our apartment and goes straight to bed.”
“Minnie, you’ve got to talk to him and make him hear you. This is hurting you and I bet it’s hurting him too he’s just too busy to notice it. Talk to him, Min,” Taehyung pressed and Jimin nodded, promising his friend he’d try, but inside he knew it wouldn’t happen. He was far too depressed and self-conscious now to bring it up. What if Jungkook got angry? What if it pushed them further apart? He’d dug the hole in his own mind and now he couldn’t get out.
Instead he brainstormed ways of getting Jungkook’s attention. He borrowed Jungkook's laptop while the alpha was at work one evening and decided to do some research. He first searched for ways to know your alpha wasn't in love with you anymore. To Jimin's great displeasure, there were hundreds of thousands of links that popped up. He skimmed them and found the one that looked most relevant. It listed five major ways you could tell you alpha was falling out of love.
1. Your alpha never wants to spend quality time with you
2. Your alpha doesn't want to touch you.
3. Your alpha doesn't ask about you or your life.
4. Your alpha doesn't want to be intimate with you.
5. Your alpha disappears for long periods of time with no word.
Jimin felt the color drain from his face. Jungkook had displayed all of these at different times. He couldn't remember the last time they'd had a deep conversation or really any conversation and Jimin was so touched starved that he knew if Jungkook even held his hand he'd get a boner instantly. There were times Jungkook wouldn't text until way up into the evening and say he was running late, like he hadn't had a spare two seconds before that to let Jimin know to eat dinner without him. There'd been times Jimin's stomach was growling horribly in his abdomen but he refused to touch the food until Jungkook got there only to be devastated when Jungkook texted around nine in the evening saying he wouldn't be home until close to midnight. It hurt and Jimin didn't know what to do to fix it. Maybe Jungkook just didn't feel the way he used to anymore. Maybe he didn't love him anymore.
His second search was 'How to keep your alpha's interest'. Jimin browsed the topics closely and found that most of them were either about food or sex. He'd tried the food and often had to stow away the alpha's food for later as he rarely ever came home at a remotely appropriate time for dinner. But maybe he didn't cook the right things. He decided to cook a huge dinner of the alpha's very favorite dishes and have it for dinner the next day, hoping that would get Jungkook's attention. As for the sex, Jimin felt heat pool in his gut. He missed his mate, missed their chemistry, missed his loving but sensual touch. It had been so long since they'd been intimate and Jimin had refused to touch himself, only craving Jungkook's big warm hands on his body instead of his own. It had been painful at times, especially when he was aroused and needy for his mate when he was nowhere to be found. But, he still hadn't caved. He'd never once masturbated.
The searches suggested trying lingerie, so he put that on the list. Jimin had worn some lacy panties before but never anything beyond that. Jungkook had never asked for it, either, and he wondered if the alpha would even like it. He browsed a few sites they suggested and found some lacy black stockings and panties sets and bought a couple, hoping his mate would like it. He also bought a black choker to match it, knowing it would accent his mating bite beautifully. He already had one plug so he mentally made a note that he could use that when the time came, as well. As he was searching through the lingerie types, he noticed that all the models were so beautiful and sexy, even the male ones. He couldn't help but to feel inadequate in his own skin, telling himself that Jungkook might be a lot happier if he had one of them instead of him. Their round shapely asses covered in the beautiful lace, their sultry eyes in the light makeup, their perfectly shaped thighs and waist. Jimin felt utterly ugly next to those people. But, maybe there was something he could change about that. He'd had a friend at work that had gotten a nose job and she'd been very pleased with the result. He wondered if perhaps there were some things he could change about his body to entice Jungkook to want him again.
'Plastic surgeons near me', he searched next. There were several as they lived in a large city. The more he looked, however, the more nervous and upset he got. He didn't like the idea of being put under anesthesia and having surgery, it scared him. But, he truly wondered if it could help, if it was the problem all along. Frustrated and anxious after looking through the surgeons websites, he closed the internet and snapped the laptop shut. He sighed and, feeling even more emotionally drained than before, he pulled himself up from the chair and made his way to the bedroom, falling into their massive bed complete with a nest Jimin had meticulously made and laying on Jungkook's side with his nose stuffed deep into his pillow to inhale the familiar scent with each breath.
The next day...
If it wasn't one thing, it was surely another. Jungkook was so tired. His shoulders and neck constantly were tense and in pain and he couldn't remember the last time he'd had a full meal. Or drank anything besides espresso, for that matter. He knew being a CEO would be tiring at times but he certainly hadn't expected to literally have no life outside of work. He was committed to his company, to his father's ideas and dreams, of the empire he'd created. But there were days he thought they expected way too much of him. He'd mentioned a couple times getting a second secretary or appointing some of his tasks to someone below him just to free up a little of his time but nothing had ever been set into motion yet. He was young, he was persistent and quite the perfectionist so he tried to handle everything himself.
It was another late night and he once again pulled out his cell phone at a quarter after eight to text his mate and tell him he wouldn't be home until late. He wondered what Jimin was doing, how he was...his alpha missed their mate. Jungkook felt awful for working late so much, though he knew Jimin understood. This company was important to Jungkook's family and he couldn't let it fail. He was surprised to see a text from Jimin that had came through an hour ago.
Mimi: Are you coming home soon, Alpha?
He felt awful for missing it but it wasn’t the first time so he sighed and typed out a response that made him feel cold all over.
Kookie: I'm going to be late again. Don't wait up.
It was a few minutes before a reply came through.
Mimi: I made dinner for us. Your favorite.
Fuck. His mate was truly a precious gem and he wished he could happily receive Jimin’s gesture and eat until he overflowed with his omega’s delicious cooking but he knew he had no choice.
Kookie: I’m sorry, Jimin.
It wasn't five seconds and the three little dots popped up telling him Jimin was responding. But it kept disappearing and reappearing until finally nearly a full minute later Jimin's response came through.
Mimi: Okay, Jungkook. Please eat something and don't work too hard.
Jungkook smiled at his mate's concern. Jimin had always been the most kind and attentive mate and he couldn't believe how lucky he'd been to somehow snag him. He nearly whined as he thought about how much he missed his precious mate. When things calmed down, he would make it up to him. His alpha ached to be reunited with his precious omega and what he wouldn’t give to bury his nose into Jimin’s scent gland and inhale his addicting scent while making love to his gorgeous perfect body. His omega was seriously the most divinely beautiful being he’d ever seen and he was the luckiest alpha in the world.
The hours drug by slowly until finally the only thing he had left to do was approve the budget for the following quarter. It was a decently quick task so he decided to go ahead and go home and do it there. He checked the clock: 11:14 PM. Damn...Jimin would surely be asleep. Sighing, Jungkook stood from his desk and grabbed his suit jacket he’d discarded earlier and put it back on. Picking up his suitcase and keys, he left the office and made his way home.
The apartment was quiet when Jungkook opened the door. Instantly a faint delicious smell of food hit him. It smelled like his favorite meal his mother used to make and he took his shoes and jacket off before heading to the kitchen. At the table were two plates of food, perfectly plated and long since gone cold. A bottle of wine was open and one of the wine glasses on the table was half full. The bottle was nearly empty and Jungkook assumed that Jimin had drank it all. Jungkook felt awful for missing this sweet little treat from his mate with him in mind and it also concerned him that it looked like Jimin hadn’t eaten much at all. He could also smell his mate’s sad and distressed scent and it put Jungkook on edge, his alpha anxious inside him knowing their mate was upset.
Jungkook decided he should check in on Jimin and see if he was awake or not before he finished his work so he headed down the hallway and as quietly as he could opened the door to their bedroom.
His mate’s scent was much stronger here and it was a little muted meaning Jimin had drank enough to be at least moderately tipsy. Jungkook’s heart felt like it was being squeezed in his chest as his eyes found his mate on the bed in their nest. Jimin was wearing something Jungkook had never seen the omega wear. Jimin’s white silk robe lay on the floor like he’d discarded it right before crawling into the bed. On his body were black lace stockings attached to lacey lingerie which perfectly showcased the omega’s shapely round ass and it was enough that in other circumstances Jungkook would be instantly hard and aroused. But the swollen eyes and distressed scent of his mate kept him from thinking about anything but wanting to comfort his mate. Jimin was snoring though and it looked like he had cried himself to sleep. How long had Jimin been sad and what had caused it? Is it because Jungkook hadn’t been home on time yet again? He’d never mentioned it to Jungkook. Jimin had always understood that his job required lots of overtime.
Jungkook seriously thought about waking the omega up but he was clearly passed out and exhausted so instead he quietly closed the door back and solemnly went further down the hallway to his office. His laptop would normally be sitting on the desk but it was missing. Confused, he looked around the room but didn’t see it anywhere. He went back to the living room thinking Jimin might’ve carried it in there for some reason and sure enough he found it sitting on the couch so he grabbed it and went back to his office.
Opening it, a thought occurred to him. If Jimin had used his laptop it only meant he’d wanted to look up something on the internet as the omega didn’t really use his laptop for any other reason. He wondered if maybe something he searched for had upset him so he went to the internet search history. The only entries were from the day before.
2:47 PM - 5 ways to know your alpha is falling out of love with you’
Jungkook’s heart dropped.
How could Jimin think…? Was he really that bad of an alpha that his mate thought he didn’t love him anymore?
He scrolled further down and it just got worse.
‘How to keep your alpha’s interest’ was the next searched phrase and Jungkook felt tears gathering in his eyes as he noticed the links that were clicked on. There were mentions of lingerie and then he scrolled through the supposed list of ways to keep your mate interested and he saw both lingerie and also cooking their favorite meal. He remembered the meal Jimin had made for them that evening and the first sob ripped it’s way out of his chest. His mate had been trying to reach him, trying to please his alpha and Jungkook had ruined it just like he’d ruined their relationship. If Jimin thought he didn’t love him or at the very least care for him, he was an absolutely awful alpha.
He continued to cry as he read the next search.
’Plastic surgeons near me’.
Jungkook slammed the laptop shut, his tears blinding his vision as he pushed roughly away from his desk and began to sob loudly in the quiet room. His precious omega, his perfect Jimin, thought his alpha didn’t love him and even worse thought for some insane reason that he was to blame, that he wasn’t pretty enough. God, how could Jungkook be so stupid? How had he allowed Jimin to think he was inadequate in any respect? He knew the omega had body image issues which was ridiculous because he was drop dead gorgeous but he never knew it went so far that Jimin would think about modifying his body to suit Jungkook’s taste. That was impossible anyway because his taste was just Jimin as is.
He’d fucked up. Royally. Colossally. And he had to fix it.
He pulled his phone out of his pocket and texted his secretary and his business partner both, knowing his business partner at least would be awake at this hour.
It was time for a change. He just hoped that somehow he could make it up to Jimin.
Jimin woke slowly, his eyes feeling puffy and swollen from crying last night. When he realized that, his memories from the night before came flooding back. He remembered receiving the lingerie set he'd ordered the day before and cooking his mate's favorite recipe to perfection. Then, he remembered getting ready, applying light makeup and fitting the lingerie to his body and admiring his form in the mirror. He hadn't been sure how it had looked and he had felt a bit uncomfortable looking at himself in them but he truly hoped that Jungkook liked it. He had originally put on an outfit on top of it but the lace had been uncomfortable against his skin so he'd instead opted to just wear his robe overtop of it.
It had all been for naught as Jungkook hadn't came home on time and his dinner had grown cold and eventually ruined there on the table. Jimin had drowned himself in tears and red wine until finally he'd grown sleepy enough to fall into bed and cry himself to sleep, not even bothering to take the lingerie off his trembling body.
He sat up and looked over to his left, fully expecting that side of the bed to be empty so he wasn’t surprised when it was. It didn’t even look like it had been disturbed. Had Jungkook even came home last night at all?
Why would he? What do you have to offer?
Jimin shook his head, trying to clear the negative thoughts from his mind. He kept telling himself that Jungkook loved him, that it was just a rough patch they were going through. But deep inside he wondered. He wondered if this was the beginning of the end. What would he do if Jungkook decided one day he didn’t want him anymore? Would Jimin survive that?
Jimin sighed and wiped his tired eyes before rising from the bed. He stripped the lingerie from his body and carelessly threw it into the small trash can next to their bed. What purpose would it ever serve anyway? His mate didn’t want him.
He took a long hot shower and hated the fact that somehow it became another pity party that ended in tears. He was emotionally destroyed and his wolf felt so lost, in need of his mate. Toweling off, he changed into his favorite sweatshirt that was actually Jungkook’s and his comfiest sweatpants. It was the weekend so he had nowhere to be and he knew his mate wouldn’t be home to dress up for so why not be comfortable?
He pulled himself together and walked to the kitchen where he grabbed an apple and a yogurt from the refrigerator. He took a bite of the apple and then noticed a note on the island. It was written in Jungkook’s elegant script.
Jimin,
I will be home today around noon. Please be dressed to go out. Nothing fancy, just casual.
Jungkook
Jungkook would be home at noon? It was positively the earliest he had ever been home in the last few months. Was something wrong? Jimin began to panic and of course his brain supplied all kinds of awful reasons why Jungkook was coming home early. He glanced at the clock on the stove. It was half past ten already. He went back to the bedroom and changed into skinny jeans and a comfy cream sweater. His nerves were tingling and he couldn’t help but he anxious. Was his alpha taking him on a date? He tried not to get his hopes up.
He had an hour left before Jungkook said he’d be home and Jimin filled most of that with pacing and nervously glancing out the window at the city.
Jimin heard the elevator signifying someone was entering the penthouse and jumped, whirling around to watch as sure enough Jungkook entered the apartment. His mate was wearing a suit like he always did and he looked incredibly tired with light bags under his eyes and slumped shoulders. Jimin’s omega whined inside him, urging him to make his mate get some rest.
Before he could say anything, Jungkook met his eyes and Jimin felt his stomach flip. After all this time, his mate could still make him flustered with just a look. He craved Jungkook’s touch like air, like he needed it to live. It had been days since he’d laid eyes on his mate and he couldn’t help but to appreciate his wide doe eyes, the mole at the corner of his lip, and the way his dark hair was slightly disheveled where it barely touched his eyelashes when he looked up at Jimin.
“Hey,” Jungkook said softly, reverently. His tone was one Jimin hadn’t heard in a long time, like Jimin was loved and cherished and so precious to him. Like he’d missed him. Jimin didn’t know what to think of it.
”Hey, Kookie,” Jimin replied, equally soft.
The alpha quirked the corner of his lip up in a tiny smile and then he crossed the room slowly until he stood in front of the omega. Jimin was near trembling as he stood in front of the man he loved more than life itself, his wolf missing the alpha so badly and just begging to be in his arms.
“Are you ready to go?” Jungkook asked.
Jimin nodded. “Where are we going?”
Jungkook winked. “It’s a secret. But wear decent shoes.”
Jimin huffed like he was annoyed but he smiled and went to put on his shoes and grab his jacket while Jungkook ran to change really fast, coming back in jeans, a black hoodie and beanie. He traded the loafers for chunky black sneakers at the door and then followed Jimin out of the apartment.
Jungkook opted to drive Jimin himself instead of calling for his driver Hoseok, which Jimin found interesting as the alpha rarely drove himself anywhere. The sleek black car drove smoothly across the city and Jimin was astonished to see that they were heading toward the suburbs.
“Where are we going, Jungkook?” Jimin asked, his curiosity peaked.
“Just relax and enjoy the ride, baby,” Jungkook teased and Jimin’s heart fluttered at the term of endearment he hadn’t heard in a while.
The road gradually became much less crowded until it was virtually just their car and Jungkook eventually pulled off at a campsite.
“Are we…going camping? I didn’t pack anything,” Jimin prodded, but still received only a wink from Jungkook as he exited the car.
Jimin shut the car door and inhaled deeply, loving the fresh forest air. It had been a very long time since he’d left the city and it was refreshing to be somewhere he didn’t see a skyscraper in every direction.
He turned to look at Jungkook and found him with a hand extended like he wanted Jimin to take it. Jimin smiled widely, happy at the attention from his mate though inside his heart was hammering. This was so out of character for Jungkook. What could possibly be going on?
Jimin let the alpha lead him through the trees, away from the campsite with its few visitors. It was fall so the nights got a bit chilly but the days were still warm so neither of them were cold as they trekked through the woods. Every once in a while, Jungkook’s thumb would rub intimately over Jimin’s forefinger and it made the omega blush every time.
“Do you remember that time we camped in front of your mother’s house? We stargazed and talked about school and the future,” Jungkook asked and Jimin nodded. It was a special night to the omega.
”Yes, I remember it well. We ate so many s’mores we were sick,” Jimin said with a giggle and then abruptly stopped when Jungkook stared at him with a curious almost sad expression on his face.
”I’ve missed that,” Jungkook said quietly.
”S’mores?” Jimin asked, momentarily confused.
Jungkook smiled and shook his head. “No. Your laugh.”
Jimin blushed and Jungkook led them further into the forest. Before long, the trees broke and there was a beautiful glade that opened up. It had a small running stream through the center of it and a large weeping willow tree off to one side of it. The sun hit the water just right to reflect magnificently off of it and Jimin thought it was such a beautiful place.
“Wow,” Jimin gasped, taking it all in.
Jungkook smiled. “You like it?”
Jimin nodded and then his eye caught something on the ground. A gray blanket was spread out along with a couple pillows and nearby a decent sized cooler sat with what looked like plates and silverware on top. Jimin also could see a large bouquet of roses propped up on one of the pillows, tied with a thick black ribbon. Jimin was speechless. It was a little picnic. Had Jungkook prepared all of this for him?
”Jungkook, what-?” Jimin began but was interrupted.
”Let’s eat, baby. We have some things to talk about,” Jungkook said, smiling gently.
Jimin wasn’t sure if that was a good thing or not but he’d gotten Jimin roses so surely that was a good thing, right?
Jungkook motioned for Jimin to sit first and then he began pulling everything out of the cooler. It was some of Jimin’s favorite things to eat and he felt tears form in his eyes at his mate’s thoughtfulness. He pulled himself together and took the food when Jungkook offered it.
“I hope you enjoy it,” Jungkook said and then they both dug in.
”Who did all this?” Jimin asked between bites.
”Hoseok,” Jungkook answered. Hoseok had been Jungkook’s driver for the past two years and was very close to both Jungkook and Jimin as he spent so much time with Jungkook.
Jimin nodded and continued to eat for a few moments, only feeling his nerves build and build until finally he couldn’t take it anymore. He sat his half-eaten plate down and turned a little to face Jungkook fully.
”Please tell me. Why did you do this? Is something wrong?” Jimin asked, his heart pounding away.
Jungkook sat his own plate down and looked down at his hands.
“Yes. Something is very wrong, Jimin,” Jungkook uttered solemnly, his scent growing dejected and bitter.
Jimin’s omega whined, hating to see their mate in any pain.
“What’s wrong, Alpha?” Jimin asked, his wolf reaching out to their mate, wanting to comfort him and ease his distress.
Jungkook inhaled sharply like he was in pain and then Jimin was shocked to see a tear roll down the side of his face. Jungkook had only cried a handful of times since he’d known him so it was a shock to see his alpha in such pain.
“Your Alpha? Surely I don’t deserve that title,” Jungkook muttered softly, his entire scent now oozing his distress.
Jimin looked at him, utterly confused. “What do you mean? Of course you’re my Alpha.”
Jungkook was trying so hard to keep from sobbing and his hands were shaking. “Jimin, some alpha I am to you. I've been distant, I've barely been speaking to you I've been so wrapped up in my job and I honestly was so busy I didn't even realize it. Baby, I'm so sorry. Please believe me, Omega, I'm so sorry-"
Jimin crawled forward until he was in Jungkook's lap and the alpha accepted him instantly, pulling him so he was straddling Jungkook. His body tingled all over at being so close to his mate after so long and he almost began to purr.
"Alpha, you have a very important and very stressful job and I understand you stay very busy-"
"No. No, Jimin. There is no excuse for my behavior. I saw...I saw the internet searches you made. Did you truly believe I didn't love you? Baby, p-please...," Jungkook brokenly begged.
Jimin now had tears in his own eyes as he hung his head in shame. "I just...I was just letting my mind get the best of me. I...I was worried that something I had done was upsetting you or...that you'd grown tired of me. I just...now it all feels so silly."
"No, baby, no. You had every right to feel that way. I've been the worst mate in the entire world. I promise, baby, never again. Please b-believe me," Jungkook cried and Jimin wrapped his arms around the alpha's broad shoulders.
Jungkook cried into Jimin's shoulder and Jimin shoved his nose into the alpha's scent gland, scenting him comfortingly.
"It's okay, Alpha. We are okay," Jimin whispered into his ear, his own tears wetting the alpha's hoodie as he cried.
Jungkook shook his head and pulled back, cupping Jimin's face in his hands and staring at him with an intensity he'd never seen before.
"Jimin...you're my Omega," Jungkook said like Jimin didn't know. It was a claim and it was significant. "My heart beats for you, baby. My job is nothing compared to you. Shove it, fuck it all! I'd lose every bit of it a thousand times over but I can't lose you, Jimin. You're everything to me. Please, baby, please don't ever think my feelings for you are anything less than that. You are the reason I get up every morning, the reason I exist, the reason my heart beats. I can't believe you're my mate, Mimi, my precious Omega. I want you for my entire life, in case I haven't been clear. I want to someday put my pups inside you and watch you grow round and even more beautiful with our children. I want to raise our pups together through the years, learning and loving more about you each day, until finally we pass on from this world side by side. Even in death, baby, if I have a say I'll follow you. Wherever you go, Omega. I promise, baby."
”A-Alpha-“
Jungkook pulled Jimin closer and nuzzled the side of his tear-stained face. “I called Yoongi and I put in a request for another secretary. It’ll give me more help, more time. I refuse to keep doing this to you, baby, to us.”
Jimin sniffled and whined as he nuzzled Jungkook’s face. “Baby, I’m sorry. I never should’ve doubted you. You’re my Alpha and I know you love me. It just…I just felt like you were avoiding me and not making time for us and I…I just got scared and anxious. I was afraid you didn’t want me anymore.”
Jungkook full-on sobbed as he grasped Jimin against his body firmly. “Baby, never. Never.”
”I won’t doubt you again, Kookie. I love you,” Jimin whispered and Jungkook pressed kisses all over his sweet omega’s face.
”I love you, my precious Omega. I love you so much,” Jungkook spoke into Jimin’s hair.
They held each other and cried for a while, just letting their emotions out as they held each other close. Jimin kept his nose pressed right against Jungkook’s pulse point, the pulsing comforting to his omega. His mate was here and in his arms. They would be okay.
”I’m taking this next week off, Jimin. No matter what happens, sink or swim. Yoongi said he wouldn’t call me unless it’s an emergency. Can you take off, too?” Jungkook asked in a small voice.
Jimin nodded emphatically. “Yes, I can. We need this.”
Jungkook agreed wholeheartedly and then they pressed their foreheads together just breathing in their own happy relieved scents. The alpha drew gentle circles on Jimin’s back as he held him, his touch comforting the omega greatly.
“I was thinking maybe we could get away for a while. Go somewhere we’ve never been maybe. We have a week. What do you say?” Jungkook asked quietly after a moment.
Jimin smiled and pulled back so he could see his alpha’s face.
”That sounds great, Alpha, but honestly I…I think I just wanna be home with you. Is that weird?” Jimin said quietly.
Jungkook smiled fondly and nuzzled his nose against Jimin’s lovingly.
”No, baby. It’s not weird. We can cuddle and catch up on our shows,” Jungkook said happily.
Jimin giggled and again thought of how blessed he was to have such a caring and sweet alpha. He loved Jungkook more than absolutely anything. But, as he sat there on his mate’s lap, his mind gradually began to wander into more dangerous and intimate territory. His body missed his alpha and he could already feel his sweet scented slick leaking out of his entrance in anticipation for the sex they would undoubtedly have now that they’d made up.
He could literally watch on his mate’s face as he caught the smell of his omega’s arousal and his irises bled red. Jimin shivered as Jungkook growled a low seductive sound not threatening in the slightest but more yearning, wanting and aroused. Jimin whimpered and bared his neck instantly which the alpha acknowledged with a low hum of approval.
“I’ve neglected you, my love. I nearly lost it when I came home yesterday and you were in that lingerie. I hate that I didn’t get to appreciate it, Mimi. Maybe you’ll wear it again sometime for me…some other time because right now I don’t want any barriers between us. Just want you naked, baby. Can I have you, Omega?” Jungkook asked with desperation and need in his voice as he nuzzled Jimin’s mating mark in a way that made Jimin’s toes curl. He loves when Jungkook is desperate for him. He was surprised and a little confused that his alpha had seen him in the lingerie but then he remembered that he'd went to sleep with it on. Jungkook must've seen him in it. He blushed, wondering what the alpha had thought of him in it. It sounded like he appreciated it.
Jungkook must have been able to read what Jimin was feeling because he pressed a kiss to Jimin's neck. "I can't believe you could ever doubt how beautiful you are. If I hadn't known how upset you were I would've ravaged you right then. You were exquisite, love. But I hope you don't feel like I need you to wear anything special to make me want you. Just you, Jimin, just like this or in lingerie or absolutely naked and I want you just as much."
Jimin whined and felt tears gather in his eyes at his mate's sweet words. "I love you, Kookie."
Jungkook smiled against Jimin's skin. "I love you, Mimi."
Jimin nodded. “Please, Alpha. Need you.”
Jungkook surged upward to seal their lips together and Jimin smiled into the kiss. He hated that he had doubted Jungkook but he had had his reasons. He was overjoyed his mate was going to fix them, that he hadn’t had a single second thought about his job once he’d realized he’d been neglecting his mate and now he was putting Jimin first again.
When they broke apart, Jungkook nipped Jimin’s lip playfully and smiled as they took a moment to catch their breath.
“We should go home, Mimi, before I take you right here in the grass,” Jungkook whispered huskily and it gave Jimin chills up and down his spine.
“I would never tell you no, Alpha,” Jimin replied softly.
Jungkook’s eyes darkened and he growled again as he stood up abruptly, pulling Jimin with him. Jimin made him wait long enough for the omega to grab the roses but Jungkook made him leave everything else, telling him that Hoseok would come back and get it all. And then he was a man on a mission, pulling Jimin along with him back in the direction of the car. Jimin could now smell not only the scent of his own arousal but also his alpha’s as well and it just got more potent as they drove back to their apartment.
Once they arrived in the underground parking garage for their building, Jungkook hopped out so fast Jimin could hardly unbuckle his seatbelt before the alpha was opening his door for him. Jimin smiled and stepped out.
"Wow, how chivalrous," Jimin teased with a wink, making Jungkook growl playfully.
Jimin squealed as Jungkook lifted him up bridal style after shutting the door.
"Press the buttons," Jungkook ordered as they approached the elevator. Jimin shivered at the dominance and desperation in the alpha's tone.
Jimin obeyed and pressed the buttons for the door to open. Once it did, he pressed their floor as well as the required passcode as it was the penthouse and as he turned back to look at his mate the alpha sealed their lips together passionately, stealing Jimin's breath away. He moaned into the alpha's mouth as his was thoroughly ravaged. He was so incredibly aroused, his cock hard inside his jeans and his hole leaking slick in copious amounts now. His underwear had to be ruined but he couldn't bring himself to care. He was close to cumming already, so starved for his mate touched as he was and he was almost embarrassed by it. But, he focused on his mate's soft lips, on his grunts and soft growls of need as he claimed Jimin's mouth with a hunger that Jimin hadn't experienced in months.
They elevator made a noise signifying they'd reached their floor and Jimin felt himself being moved as Jungkook made his way further into their apartment while still keeping their lips connected, his steps more hurried than before. He also smelled a spike in his alpha's scent. Jungkook was nearing the end of his control and Jimin trembled at the knowledge.
They reached their bedroom before Jungkook detached his mouth from Jimin's and they both stared at each other while breathing heavily. Jungkook's eyes were red around the rims of his irises and Jimin knew his own were an icy blue. Their wolves were aware and present, ready to reunite with each other on the deepest level. Jungkook slowly and carefully lowered Jimin to sit on the bed and then he kneeled in front of him on the carpet. He brought his hands to Jimin's calves as he looked up at him.
"Can I undress my omega?" Jungkook asked softly while his warm hands caressed Jimin's legs.
Jimin nodded, not trusting his voice to answer him audibly. Jungkook leaned up long enough to press their lips together again and then he was leaning back down. He began with Jimin's shoes and then his socks. When his feet were bare, Jungkook massaged and caressed his feet for a moment making Jimin moan at the loving touch. Then, Jungkook slowly let his hands travel up to Jimin's waist where he unbuttoned and unzipped his pants. Jimin's heart was beating uncontrollably in his chest as the alpha prompted Jimni to lift his hips so he could pull his jeans down. The air was suddenly full of the smell of Jimin's slick as his jeans were slowly pulled from his body and Jungkook groaned huskily as he was overwhelmed by his mate's sweet scent of arousal. Jimin moaned and rubbed his thighs together, trying to get any friction he could for his aching cock and his hole that craved his mate's cock so badly.
Once the scent of Jimin's slick exploded in the room, Jungkook was like a man possessed and he fell forward, shoving his nose into Jimin's crotch right over his hard cock that was still encased in his underwear. Jimin gasped and moaned loudly at the pressure on his cock, little shivers running up and down his spine as the alpha mouthed at his cock.
"Fuck, Mimi, want you so bad," Jungkook groaned and then his hands were grabbing at Jimin's sweater, pulling it up and over his head.
Jimin's nipples hardened into little buds as they were bared to the air of the room and he squirmed when he was naked before his mate. His mind briefly tried to make him self-conscious of his body again, but with the way Jungkook's eyes roamed over his body hungrily there was no room for Jimin to feel anything but delicious anticipation for what his mate was about to do to him.
"You're so beautiful. Can't believe you're mine, baby," Jungkook whispered before pulling a nipple into his mouth making Jimin arch his back and moan loudly again.
He was so close to cumming, to blowing a load into his underwear before they'd really even started. He was so aroused, so turned on, and he hadn't felt this in so long. His mate was all he could think about, all he could feel and see and hear and touch. He was everything and Jimin was so desperate to have him inside him.
"Alpha, please...hurry. Need you so bad," Jimin begged, nearly panting with how aroused he was.
Jungkook shushed him softly before giving his nipple one last wet suck and then he came up to steal Jimin's lips again before he pulled back. His thumbs hooked Jimin's underwear and began to pull them down, Jimin helping by lifting his hips again, and finally Jimin was bare before his mate. He shivered as Jungkook assessed him from the top of his head all the way down to the tips of his toes. Jimin let him look for a moment before he scooted backwards and laid back on the bed. He crooked his finger in a come hither motion which made Jungkook growl again and then aggressively undress himself, nearly ripping his hoodie in an attempt to get it off as quickly as possible. When Jungkook pulled his underwear down, his very erect cock sprung upward to slap against his lower abdomen and Jimin moaned at the sight and instantly bared his neck and spread his legs, wanting nothing more than for his alpha to mount him as quickly as possible.
Jungkook didn't waste a single second, especially once he saw the sweet complete submission of his ready and pliant omega on their bed. He lowered his naked body over his mate's and they both groaned loudly as their cocks ground together deliciously. Jungkook claimed Jimin's lips again and they made out for several moments while they ground themselves against each other, enjoying the friction. Jimin was again so close to cumming and he panted as he pulled away from Jungkook's mouth.
"N-Not gonna last, Alpha. Please just...take me," Jimin begged, not wanting to come until Jungkook was inside him.
"Wanted to take my time with you, baby, but I think you're right. We are both at the end of our rope here," Jungkook said and Jimin nodded quickly, fully in agreement.
Jungkook smiled and stole one last kiss before he began crawling down Jimin's body. The omega further spread his legs and pulled them up to his chest, baring his hole for his alpha to prepare him for his cock. When Jungkook licked a fat stripe across the underside of Jimin's erect cock he nearly screamed and his cock twitched. He barely held in his orgasm and he whined, wanting his alpha inside him literally in that second. Jungkook smiled as he left a soft kiss to the head of Jimin's cock before he did as he knew his omega wanted and brought his mouth to his mate's entrance. Jimin tensed when Jungkook first touched his tongue to Jimin's hole and began to greedily lap at his entrance, loosening his rim and beginning to prepare him for his cock.
There was a constant vibration against Jimin's hole and the omega recognized it as a gentle deep rumbling growl coming from his mate as he rimmed the omega. It made Jimin's blood burn to hear his mate so affected by his want of Jimin's body and not just his body but his desire to be one with him, to be inside him and reunite in that way that brought them close together again. Jungkook's tongue and lips caressed and massaged his entrance, making his rim relax and open gradually. When he added a long warm finger, Jimin moaned again and arched his back, loving the gentle massage of his inner walls with Jungkook's experienced finger. One by one, he added more until Jimin was panting and writhing on the bed and his hole was gaping when Jungkook pulled his fingers out and licked them clean. He left one last loud wet kiss on his prepared entrance and then he was hovering over Jimin again.
"Ready, baby?" Jungkook asked softly, kissing Jimin's chest and neck as he situated himself between Jimin's legs.
"Y-yes, Alpha, please," Jimin breathed, baring his neck and feeling like his body might literally combust if Jungkook didn't enter him in the next second.
Jungkook smiled and leaned up to look into Jimin's eyes as he grabbed his cock with one hand and led it to Jimin's soaking entrance. As he slowly pushed inside, Jimin held his breath and Jungkook watched him closely as his mouth fell open, the pleasure almost enough to make them both cum instantly.
"Oh, fuck...not gonna last, Omega. You feel so good," Jungkook huskily spoke when he was halfway inside.
"M-me neither. Not gonna last long," Jimin replied as he struggled to breathe through the intense pleasure at having his mate's thick cock stretching him open.
When Jungkook was fully seated inside him, Jimin groaned and felt that everything was finally right again. His mate was nestled deep inside him, where he should be. His omega was positively preening inside him, so happy to be reconnected with their mate and raving about being bred with his alpha's pups which he ignored for now. Jungkook held himself inside Jimin for a long moment, letting them both adjust and also staving off their orgasms so they could last a little longer.
"I've missed you, Mimi," Jungkook whispered as he nuzzled Jimin's neck again right over his mating mark.
"Missed you too, Alpha," Jimin breathed and had to resist the urge to purr with how content he was.
"Gonna move now," Jungkook gently warned and the omega nodded.
Jungkook slowly pulled out the entire length of his cock before pushing firmly back inside, making both of them gasp. Jungkook kept his hands on the back of Jimin's thighs to keep his legs spread and his knees against his chest to give the deepest possible penetration. The feeling was mindblowing and the slide of Jungkook's cock against Jimin's sensitive inner walls was perfect. Jimin brought up his trembling arms to wrap around Jungkook's shoulders as Jungkook pulled back to watch Jimin's face, loving the expression of pure bliss on his mate's face. After that, it was all push and pull, Jungkook's cock bringing Jimin to the highest height of his pleasure very quickly and he spilled onto his stomach after only a few minutes. It was the quickest he'd probably ever came but he couldn't hold it, not when his body had craved his mate for so long and he could feel all the love Jungkook had for him in every single well-aimed thrust against his prostate. Jungkook growled as he watched Jimin's face as he orgasmed and he gently nipped the omega's lips and then claimed them in an aggressive kiss.
"Mmm, that's it, baby," Jungkook praised as he continued to thrust. His thrusts were getting more and more erratic as he neared his own orgasm.
Jimin could do little more than hold on as he was pushed into oversensitivity and he moaned as he felt his mate's knot catching on his rim with each thrust, teasing its entrance to lock them together. He needed his alpha to knot him, needed to be locked together with Jungkook.
"Knot me, Alpha. Please, need your knot," Jimin begged breathily and Jungkook growled and picked up the pace.
"Gonna knot you, Omega. Gonna make you cum again on my knot," Jungkook growled and Jimin's eyes rolled back in his head as he felt his body burn all over with desire, feeling that all too wonderful feeling of his orgasm nearing yet again.
"Alpha...Alpha...mmm...fill me up," Jimin begged as he struggled to breathe, his orgasm fast approaching.
Jungkook cursed and then he growled loudly as he finally shoved his knot inside Jimin. He moved his hips in circles, grinding against Jimin's ass sensually and Jimin felt the moment a rush of cum was released inside him and it was enough to push him over the edge into his second orgasm and he came with a scream of his mate's name. Jungkook continued moving his hips in little circles, milking his and Jimin's orgasms for as long as he could and moaning when the omega's fluttering entrance further massaged his sensitive cock. All the while, he let little growls fall from his lips as he buried his face into Jimin's neck and nuzzled him there, scenting him aggressively.
Jimin was in utter heaven as he gradually came down from his high again. He felt so complete lying there with his mate locked inside him, finally one again after so long. He couldn't help the tears that fell from his eyes or the way he clung to Jungkook with both his arms and his legs as his mate shuddered on top of him and Jimin felt another surge of cum deep inside him.
"Kookie...Alpha...P-Please don't leave me. I love you so much," Jimin begged, not thinking clearly as his omega surged forward in his mind.
Jungkook pulled back from his neck and stared into his eyes, bringing up a hand to cradle his face gently.
"Never, baby. You're mine and I'm yours. I'm so sorry, baby. I promise this won't happen again. Please share your mind with me, Mimi. I want to know how you feel always," Jungkook asked and Jimin quickly nodded his head, no longer afraid to share his feelings with his alpha after he'd thoroughly reassured Jimin that he not only cared but that the alpha would change whatever he could to ease Jimin's worries.
"Thank you, Alpha," Jimin whispered, feeling Jungkook pulse again inside him. He knew they'd be tied together for at least a half hour since it'd been so long.
Jungkook smiled and returned to his scenting. When he'd scented Jimin to the point he smelled completely of Jungkook and was quietly purring as he began to doze off he pulled back and gently maneuvered them to lay on their sides which was more comfortable.
"Sleep, Mimi. I'll be here when you wake up," Jungkook reassured as he held Jimin closely in his arms, their bodies still connected.
Jimin leaned up to run his nose over Jungkook's scent gland right above his mating mark and sighed happily. "I know you will be. I'm sorry I ever doubted you, Jungkook."
Jungkook kissed him softly and shook his head. "You had reasons to, baby. But, it's all in the past now. Get some rest. When you wake up, we can take a bath."
Jimin smiled and nuzzled into his mate's chest, feeling better than he had in weeks. He was so incredibly happy and relieved, sated and content in his mate's arms where he was supposed to be. Jungkook had proven himself yet again to be the best alpha Jimin could've ever asked for and he knew now to never doubt his love again.
Jimin really believed he was the luckiest omega in the world.
