In Luna's chamber:

Luna: Did Yn eat something?

Mari (Luna’s trusted Omega servant): No, Luna. That Omega is still sleeping… without eating anything.

Luna: (sighs, voice turning sharp) When she wakes up, make sure to give her food mixed with the birth control potion..

I don’t tolerate any mistakes—mind it..Trueblooded Alpha knots are powerful..Mix a high amount everytime after

Mari: I will keep it in mind, Luna. (bows and quietly exits)

Author pov:

After the exhaustion of five long days… Yn slept for one whole day without the disturbance and anyone daring to disturb her.

Her body was worn, her soul too quiet. It was as if the palace knew—let her rest.

Yn’s POV:

I opened my eyes slowly, blinking into the morning light.My body refused to move..

The sheets around me felt soft but heavy, like the ache still lingering deep inside..

My lower stomach throbbed dully, the pain still refusing to leave..I curled up tighter under the blankets, trying to disappear from the world again. I didn’t want to wake up.

But—

Ari: Lazy Yn!! Get up!! How many days are you going to sleep? I’m getting bored!

Yn: (yawning as I sat up sluggishly) Let me sleep, Ari... I’m still so sleepy. (I collapsed back down, my head falling into her arms without meaning to)

Ari: I’m not Jungkook, Yn! You’re literally hugging me!

Yn: (mumbling, backing away) Shut up.

Ari: (teasingly, her voice lilting with amusement) Ooooh… someone’s blushing real hard, huh?

Yn: (eyes wide) Stop it! No one is blushing here! (my hands flew to my face, but it was too late)

Ari: Don’t even try to hide it. Your face says everything!

Yn: (playfully slapping her shoulder) Will you just stop teasing!

Ari: (laughs loudly) Poor Yn… really had a tough nights, huh?

Yn: Oh shut up already! (I grabbed a pillow and hit her with it, but then I noticed something… her neck—barely hidden, the soft reddish mark creeping on her neck) (I smirked)

Well, well… someone else had their own fun nights, right?

Ari: (immediately covering my neck, my eyes wide) What are you saying, Yn!?

Yn: (teasing) Mmhmm~ Looks like your heat came, and let me guess… Yoongi hyung’s secret place?

Ari: (blushing furiously, unable to meet her eyes) and nodded softly

Yn: Aha! Someone’s blushing now too! Said Teasingly

Ari: Stop it, Yn… it’s not like tha—

But we both froze when we heard a knock.

The door creaked open. Mari entered with a tray.

Mari: Luna ordered to give you this food, Yn.

Yn: Thank you. Just place it on the table, please. (I pointed, not moving much from my place)

Mari: But Luna ordered that you eat it now.

But suddenly someone interrupted

??: She’ll eat when she’s hungry. You may leave now.

Yn:My eyes snapped to the voice—(eyes lighting up) Maa!

Mari looked between them but said nothing.

She quietly bowed and left.

Yoona: (walked up towards yn gently, brushing her cheek with my fingers) Finally you woke up. Please eat something, Yn…

you haven’t eaten since yesterday. Your body needs strength.

Ari:Yoona Maa was right, Yn. You’ve faced so much… please eat something.

Yn: But— (Before I could even protest, a spoonful of food was already near my lips. I had no choice but to take a bite.)

They both burst into laughter seeing my grumpy little pout.

Later, after Yoona Maa left the chamber, it was just us again—two best friends, hearts still carrying invisible bruises.

Ari: Did Jungkook come even once? Ask how you were? Anything?

Yn: (I shook my head slowly. My voice cracked before I even spoke.) No… why would he, Ari? You know how much he hates me. Maybe… maybe he feels disgusted that he spent his first rut with me.

Ari: (pulled her into a tight hug, my fingers combing through her tangled hair gently) I don’t know why he hates you so much… but I heard he left for work that very same morning.

Yn:Those words… they sliced through my chest. I didn’t reply..I just held her tighter, trying not to break down. My lips trembled against her shoulder..Maybe he truly felt disgusted… to be with someone like me.

Why do you hate me so much, Alpha?

Later that…

Yn’s POV:

I was sitting in my chamber… quietly reading a book. My fingers lazily traced the lines on the page, but my mind wasn’t even there. It kept wandering…back to last night…back to him.

Suddenly, a knock echoed at the door.

Before I could even stand— Mari entered

Mari: Luna is demanding your presence, Yn…

Yn:I looked up at her, startled. My heart skipped a beat..I quickly nodded and closed the book, placing it aside..My legs still felt sore, and each step

I took was careful… slow… like I was walking toward something I didn’t want to face.

We reached the Queen’s chamber.

She was sitting tall—elegant, poised like always.

Her aura was cold, sharp, and powerful. Her gaze pierced through me like it always did.

I immediately bowed in front of her, lowering my eyes in submission.

Luna: I think… you are better now.

Yn:I nodded, keeping my head down, not daring to meet her eyes.

There was silence. A long, suffocating silence before her voice returned—calm, but laced with ice.

Luna: I observed you closely, Yn… I honestly thought you were not trained well enough to control a Trueblooded Alpha’s inner wolf.

Yn:(She looked at me for a long second)

Luna:But still… I must admit… you did it wisely. You stayed composed.

Yn:Her words cut deeper than they were meant to. I stayed quiet. Because that’s what I was supposed to do..Obey..!!

Luna: (leaning forward slightly, voice lowering) I want to say something to you, Yn… before you let your heart wander into places it should never go.

Before you get those… unwanted feelings… for the Crown Prince.(her voice turned sharper now)

What happened during his first rut—was not him. It was not Prince Jungkook who claimed you.

It was his inner wolf.

Yn:I flinched..Her words—each one felt like a knife carving through my chest..I held my breath, trying to keep my emotions buried where no one could see.

Luna: So… stop whatever feelings are blooming inside you or in the future..They’re meaningless.

You were raised under this palace’s protection, and now, it’s your duty to repay that..

You are just his claim..His property..To satisfy his instincts. That is your only purpose.

Yn:My fingers trembled slightly, but I clutched them into fists, digging my nails into my palm. I felt the sting..

But I needed to feel something. Anything—other than this ache in my chest.

She paused. Her eyes still locked on me.

Luna: I hope you understand that what you did was duty—not love. Not fate. Not bond. And you must behave like it.

Yn:I nodded silently, even though my heart was shattering. Every word from her lips stabbed deeper than the last..I felt like crying..screaming…

But I said nothing..Because I wasn’t allowed to.

Because Omegas like me weren’t supposed to love..They were just meant to be claimed.

Luna: (straightens, voice firm) You may leave now. Take rest if you need it…

(coldly) But if you ever cross the line again—don’t blame anyone for what happens next.

Yn:I lowered my head, bowed once again, and whispered— Yes… Luna..And I turned away.

Each step out of that chamber felt like a thousand weights chained to my soul..I didn’t know if I was walking back to my room or walking away from the last pieces of hope

inside me.

Time Skips..

Yn:Sleep refused to visit me. I sat on my bed in silence.My mind filled with the thoughts..

Outside, the rain fell softly, whispering against the palace walls.But inside—inside me, it stormed.

It’s been ten days since he left..Ten days without a word..Ten days since I saw him..and he left without turning back.

My inner Omega missed him like air..

I stepped out to the balcony, letting the tiny raindrops kiss my skin..They were cold—but I welcomed them.

I looked up at the moon goddess, my heart aching..COME BACK SOON, ALP—

Suddenly, the chamber door burst open behind me with a loud thud.

My breath hitched. I couldn’t see anything—it was too dark.

Yn: W-Who are you?! What are you doing in my chamber!?

(I rushed inside, heart racing, grabbed the sword from near the wall, and turned to

strike—)

But the figure caught my wrist, spun me around, pinned my arms behind my back—and before I could scream— Their lips crashed onto mine.

I dropped the sword in shock. The kiss wasn’t gentle—it was hungry. Desperate. Claiming. My lips trembled under his, but I didn’t pull away.

Because I knew this scent..It was him.

My Alpha...!!

Prince Jungkook.

He buried his face in the crook of my neck, inhaling deeply as if my scent was the only thing keeping him alive.

I clutched at his robes, my body trembling. His hands trailed down my neck, over my collarbone, untying the knot of my dress

It slipped from my shoulder, the chill mixing with the warmth of his touch.

Jk: I want my Omega now.

Yn: (eyes wide, seeing the red glow in his gaze) (smiling softly) I’m always yours, Alpha. You never need my permission.

He growled in satisfaction and kissed me again—harder, deeper, more desperate. His touches were possessive, devouring me with every movement.

His hands claimed me, his lips worshiped me.

He lifted me effortlessly, and I wrapped my legs around him instinctively. My breath got stolen by every kiss, every press of his lips on my skin, every time he whispered how much he needed me through his actions.

I moaned into his mouth, overwhelmed.

And we stayed like that looking into each other eyes then I whispered—

Yn: I missed you, Alpha…

He kissed my forehead so gently that I melted in his arms.

That night..I gave myself to him..And he took everything what was his..Again..!!

Next Morning —

Yn's POV:

I stirred beneath the blankets. My body was sore… but his warmth on me hadn’t left yet.

His weight… his knot still inside me.

The scent in the room was thick—ours. Our bond. Our mixture of scents tangled together in the air.

I hugged him tighter, knowing this moment wouldn’t last. Because when he woke up—

He would hate himself for coming to me again

I knew that look. The cold eyes. The silent regret.

I kissed his forehead once, gently. Then slowly began to slide out.

His knot gave way carefully. I pushed him softly so he’d roll off, and thank goddess… he didn’t wake.

I covered him, brushing his hair gently, and walked toward the bathroom.

Sitting in the water…

I let the silence surround me. I scrubbed myself clean. The dried remains of our bond… thick and stubborn…were hard to wash away..But I did.

And when I returned—He was gone like I expected..He left again.

I sighed..Like Luna said I shouldn't take it to my heart anymore.. It's better for everyone and me

I dressed slowly..Just then, Mari entered with food, and I ate it quietly..I was starving.

Later:

Ari: (walking in) Why are you walking like that?

Yn: It’s just that—

Ari: Did he come to you last night?

Yn: (nods slowly) I think his inner wolf was craving me… his Omega.

Ari: ( I didn’t say anything—just looked at her. But her eyes… they said everything..she

knew..I understood everything.) but I decided to stay silent and said Let’s go. We have to go to the library.

Yn: (I nodded quietly..My legs were sore..My heart more.)(I followed her out, step by step…my soul still heavy with love I wasn’t allowed to feel.)
