Take Out

Junhyuk doesn't know where to wonder, Hyeop supposedly working on getting woods but he was busy sending the photos he just captured yesterday in the nearby area. He don't like bothering his twin while he's working, so he volunteered to take some woods.

He strolled deep in the forest with enough sticks in his hands. He was about to head back that time when someone suddenly run into him. He was covered in blood and he was crying, the poor boy was bloody hurt.

Junhyuk wondered if he was been kidnapped or ended up meeting a gruesome fate. He remembered that every year, many of population of this town especially teenagers were sexually assaulted, beaten, chopped to pieces, or murdered, and some were never found at all.

His mind was infested with these grim statistics, all from a book detailing bizarre murder cases he had been seeing some time ago. Those crimes

had seemed so unimaginable, yet now they could so easily become a part of their reality.

Junhyuk doesn't know what to do to the poor guy. Maybe he became part of it and he was scared he might experience the same fate as he was right now.

"Help... they're coming!" The boy gasped, crying loudly and shaking violently.

"Who is coming? What happen -- "

"The hunters! They're coming!"

Junhyuk was about to tell him that he could stay in their cabin when something invisible suddenly pulled the guy, dragging him further until he was out of his sight. Junhyuk does not know where, what, nor who pulled the guy, perhaps there was a string.

"Help!"

Junhyuk's ears perked and quickly followed the source of the voice until he see him on the ground in prone position. Junhyuk run to him and quickly helped him up but the guy was being pulled again by invisible string. Junhyuk swiftly ran along the forest, and soon arrived at what appeared to be houses. A huge main house with small houses up in the tree, the houses looked so odd but quite beautiful, it just like wolves' dens or birds' little nest. He was far from the cabin and town but the area is incredibly beautiful, but a little foggy. House with little tree houses and there was a lakeside and if Junhyuk imagined it, the sun over the horizon will make this place look breathtaking. This will attract tourists or maybe this is a resort? The resorts that attracted the flocks of tourists, but there still wasn't a single passerby to be seen. Or maybe he was mistaken?

Maybe it was just because of the fog that limiting his vision.

It was quiet. Too quiet.

It was in the middle of the day, but the silence made it feel like the dead of night. It was the silence of a creepy forest, a place devoid of life. Though the place gave Junhyuk a strange sense of foreboding, his concern for his own life crushed any doubts or hesitation he might have had.

He can no longer hear the guy and he was away from their cabin. What is he going to do now?

Suddenly, he felt like someone was standing behind him and when he looked over his shoulder, he has been pushed by the guy he just help.

Junhyuk fell in the hole beside him and his head hit the rock but he still have his consciousness. He groaned and sit up, looking up and see the guy, seeing his sorry then run off just like that.

Junhyuk was still in daze and shock until his mind recovered, he realized what happened. He blinked his eyes in anger, looking up at the 10ft hole he was in. He fisted his hands in anger and betrayal. "TRAITOR!" Junhyuk shouted at the top of his lungs.

Junhyuk woke up when he heard someone just screamed somewhere in the house. The voice sounded like Hyeop but no, his twin cannot be here. Right, his twin, he hoped he can find him immediately. He's so sick staying in this house and being locked away from society.

He missed his twin, he needed him, he wanted him, he wanted his warmth and comforting words. He needed him so badly right now and being situated in some sort of unfamiliar room alone in this house with those lunatics made him scared. He's scared to go out and when he tried to escape through these windows, these windows was actually shut tight like it was linked in the wall.

He can't really remember much from that time, other than being pushed by someone. He can't remember well as if there was something missing in his memory but he could not pinpoint what was it. But he believed that he was in the house he saw that time based on how he can see the hole from here.

If he hadn't helped that guy, then maybe he was still in their cabin with his twin. Thinking about his twin brought tears in his eyes and he can't help but cry in vain.

The awful memory of yesterday came in his mind, just how they r*ped him that time, they took advantage of his heat then... that, Junhyuk doesn't want to remember every part of it, that only make his stomach curl in disgust and shame.

He remembered who took advantage of him and that's the guy who have shoulder length dark hair.

He doesn't know what will happen next but getting out of here is his top priority. He can feel his body sore all over as he get up and sit on the soft, neat bed.

Junhyuk stared at the unfamiliar room that looked quite fancy with huge windows and curtains, king sized bed, chandelier, walked in closet and beside it is the looking expensive bathroom, and fancy lamps and drawers. Whoever owns this house is surely a fucking billionaire.

Junhyuk chuckled to himself when he remembered the story Homin so engrossed at, it was a story of a girl, taking revenge from his billionaire ex, and when Hyeop caught him reading that kind of story, he cringed in disgust and said, "Cliché," The smile on his face slowly faded when he remembered that he was still here, caged and they acting as if they own him.

What? Was this a story about the group of billionaires kidnapping him?

He groaned as he tried to move to get off from the bed, feeling sore, especially in his lower body region. He must get out of here.

Junhyuk almost stumbled down to get to the door and opened it, but only to be met by a pair of brown beautiful ones, belonging to the dark haired man from yesterday. The guy who just took everything from him. His experience, his kiss aside from his twin and now, his freedom.

He smiled when seeing Junhyuk fully awake now, but there's something uneasy the way he looked at the white haired Junhyuk, like he wanted to devour him.

Junhyuk gulped before stepping back, eyes downcast on the red velvet carpet.

"Morning baby, did you sleep well?" asked the gorgeous guy.

Junhyuk wanted to retort, telling how he could possibly sleep well if he was with these maniacs, and what they just did to him.

But he does not want to provoke anyone like yesterday by running his mouth. "Yes," he answered shortly.

"Nice then, since your twin is already awake too, we can now talk about the rules of this house over lunch, how's that?" Junhyuk froze. Is his twin also here? How?

Just then, he remembered, Hyeop tried to help him. He couldn't help but cried, thinking his twin was taken away too because of him. Hyunsung hurried to his side and pulled him into his arms, embracing him completely while rubbing his back. "Don't worry, your twin is fine," he assured, and here the conversation dropped, and Hyunsung told him to shower.

However, staying in this place was not quite bad, he can stay here but without these lunatics in front of him in the wide table. There was a table set out under a tree in front of the houses, they were actually up in the tree, in the wide balcony where he can sight the beautiful lake from here. The weather was nice, the sun raised above them thought the fog was still surround them as if blocking this area from the other people's eyes.

The others were eating and the guy with glasses were having tea at it: a wolf stuffed toy was sitting between Sungjoon and Junghwan who busy playing on his ps5 and the other

two, which was Jihae using it as a cushion, resting his elbows on it, and talking over its head.

The whole group was quite noisy as they beckon at each other, throwing food and such like they're having food fight.

Jeongsun snapped up at them and his smile became wider. "Very pleased to see you our new omega," said Jeongsun, tipping his invisible hat.

"Here, take a seat next to me," he invited and indignantly pulled Junhyuk, and forced him to sit down in a large armchair at one end of the table.

"Have some turkey," Junghwan said in an encouraging tone.

Junhyuk looked all round the table, but there

was nothing on it but stew and soups with pot of tea. The table was actually look like in the enchanted movies, the foods were also looked fancy with spoons, fork and plates, they all looked so fucking expensive. "I don't see any turkey," he remarked.

"There isn't any," said the youngest with his brows raised, looking down at his ps5.

Jihae sneered earning an annoying glance from Junhyuk. He disliked how he taunting him.

"Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it," said Junhyuk angrily, forgetting who he was talking to.

"It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited," said Jihae with a sly apathy.

"But one of your friends invited me," said Junhyuk; "it's laid for a great many more than eight, I supposed, fifteen can fit,"

Seunghyun brought down his cup of tea and looked at Junhyuk who was just seating in front of him.

"I don't like your mouth," he said coldly, eyes sharpened and Junhyuk gulped, eyes downcast.

"Seunghyunie, do not scare him!" Hyunsung scolded and threw a cookie on him that he easily dodged.

Moments later, Fin finally arrived and Junhyuk can't take his eyes out of him. This person is just so beautiful like his twin, speaking of which, where was he?

"Where's Hyeopil?" Minhee asked, brows knitted together in a great frown, he looked menacing for Junhyuk.

Junhyuk flinched on his seat, hearing his twin's name from someone else, from their abuser sounds new and weird, very weird.

"Unconscious hyung, you can tell the rules, I'll pass it to him later when he wakes up," said Fin and took a seat beside Jihae who quickly pecked his cheeks, seeing that make Junhyuk blushed in embarrassment. "Where's my twin?" asked Junhyuk but Minhee ignored him completely.

"Now, let me begin," he said, and here the conversation dropped, and the lunchtime sat silent for a minute, while Junhyuk thought over all he could of where possibly they hide his twin.

"Lee Junhyuk or his friends like to call him Sunie is an omega like Fin, Hyunsung and possibly Junghwan," As soon Minhee said that, the youngest suddenly choked on his own spit, with wide cute cat eyes, he looked at their pack's leader. "You fucking... kidding me?! I'm not presented yet! I felt nothing different in my body either!" he said in hastily. "I am not a fucking omega!"

"Ya! stop saying like it's a bad thing!" Hyunsung scold.

"It fucking do," Junghwan hastily replied; "I mean what I say is -- omega is being insatiably horny for fucking days every month!"

"Not the same thing a bit!" said Hyunsung.

"Why, you might just as well say that when you are not presented yet!" said Junghwan with anger.

"You might just as well say," Fin inserted himself with apathy, picking the small orange fruit. "how good alpha's d*ck is, and you go crazy and like to have pups --

"Ya! I am sure that I'm a beta like Sungjoon hyung and Seunghyun hyung!" Junghwan said hastily, cutting Fin of his words.

Junghwan really wanted to say something about that. That was not real, but how they talked about it makes him want to believe.

"Oh yeah? Well, let see... I hope you won't crawl onto Hyeopil when you nearly presenting." Jihae sneered and earned a glare from the youngest.

"Ya! I am not! And besides I don't like human! They're disgusting!" Junghwan pout cutely.

"He is not human but a gloat," Jeongsun said, eyeing Junhyuk beside him who still stiff in his seat. "I wonder what gloat do when they in their rut, or I mean -- was the gloat have that?"

"Of course they have especially when they drink their taste's blood," said Jihae. "Their arousal is much more than omega's rut. It's overwhelming for them."

"You mean," Sungjoon leaned on the table, eyes turned small as he tried to pinpoint something. "They go aggressive in s*x?!"

"Exactly, but maybe? That was only in tale though." Jihae shrugged.

"Who is his taste then?" Hyunsung asked with great curiosity.

"Taste? You mean... like mate?" asked Junghwan and Jihae nodded.

"Actually, they have many, it is up to them whom they want to be their mate," added Jihae and noticed Fin growl lowly, taking the wine glass with mango shake in it and looked at it gloomily: then he dipped it into his glass, and looked at it again: but he could think of nothing better to say about it.

"It's better if I'm his taste, he is my gloat and I am too should be his mate." Fin grumbled lowly almost inaudible but enough for Jihae to hear.

"Although gloat is nasty, they're interesting," said Jeongsun and smiled, his foxy eyes turned into line as his dimples showed up.

"Do you actually believe in that?" After a long silence of him, he finally broke and speak for his twin. The table fell in great silence and eyes landed on him but that didn't make Junhyuk felt nausea.

"Why? Of course we do," Sungjoon said.

Junhyuk wanted to laugh but he keep that to himself. "We all just ill! Werewolves, alphas, betas, omegas and gloats? All of that are just a myth!"

"You don't have the slightest idea," said Minhee. "Nor your twin," the leader added.

Junhyuk sighed wearily. "I think you might

read something better about medications," he said, "than waste your time reading fairy tale book that have no proof at all."

"What are you studying at?" Seunghyun suddenly asked. "Pardon me little omega for asking but my great curiosity got the best of me." "Journalist, and my twin studying art but he also taking the same course," answered Junhyuk and he caught Seunghyun eyed Hyunsung. "Well, my dear, Hyunsung loves arts, how about we play a game of chess -- "

"My twin is smart too and if you're inviting him to play chess with you, he surely beat you," said Junhyuk hastily with great confident oozing from him.

Seunghyun only sneered and leaned on his chair, "Let's see then, that would be great, certainly," he said thoughtfully.

Minhee cleared his through and finally, made up a better decision and rules. "I will say my remarks once the game is done. Nine o'clock in the morning, just time to begin lessons: we'd start until half-past one, time for dinner. You need to keep it to half-past one as long as you liked and shouldn't be hungry."

"What is the game then?" Junghwan asked.

"Chess of course and Seunghyun will fight Hyeopil's intelligence," said Minhee, sounded excited.

"And if Hyeopil lose?" Fin asked sternly.

"He'll be turn to be OUR pet, and if he win? Well," Minhee turned to his brother with a sly grin. "It's up to you,"

Fin's face lightened up upon hearing that. "I like to take him to our nest!" he said with great excitement.

"Very well then," Minhee said and dip on his cup of tea.

Junhyuk was back again inside of his room after that long dinner. He still have no idea where his twin could be, he might just somewhere in this house. He should explore but, how?

He stood up from the bed and head over the door, checking if this was locked and it is. He cursed under his breath and lightly punch the door. Junhyuk heave a sigh before going back to his bed, lay on it.

He missed his bed with their scent on it. He missed his twin.
