Take Out

Two kilometers away from the twins' cabin, there was also a house. Not big and not that small, just the exact size for eight people and a basement for their victims, and Hyunsung stuffing. Jihae made himself and Fin a cup of green tea as he gazed out the window where he can see his lover seating outside while typing on his laptop. It's a beautiful day outside and he could hear the birds singing, the sounds of insects and the sounds of the wind.

It was a nice idea to stay in the forest then came back to the city and begged to their parents for acceptance after what happened to the ward years ago. They were still twenty-one while the youngest was still seventeen at that time and even ten years have passed, all the eight of them doen't look like they'd aged. They still looked the same as they were before. No one can see the evidence of their aging.

Their faces were still fresh and forever 21.

He walked out of the kitchen, way out of the house, and a cold wind touched his skin. He can't stop smiling because of the feeling of being free and able to do whatever he wants. Jihae's smile turned wider when he's near his lover. He then kissed his lover's blonde hair before whispering, 'good morning.'

Within ten years, everything changed drastically; they've fallen in love with each other and became lovers; loving to take care of each other and they love affection, especially Hyunsung and Fin. Junghwan was the main problem among them though, he was always grumpy and bitter whenever he see them all lovey-dovey. But Minhee, as the eldest, took care of the youngest.

Although Junghwan easily gets annoyed to be with anyone, he couldn't deny the fact that he craves affection as well. He was somewhat thankful that Hyunsung and Fin were there to give him what he wanted. Despite of being one big group dynamic that all share little kisses and hugs, it's different.

Fin stopped typing and looked up to see his lover holding two cups of tea. He smiled too after seeing his lover's bright smile. That made his day even more peaceful than before.

Jihae places the two cups on the table before placing himself on the wooden chair, enjoying the comforting sounds of the forest. The only thing weighing them down was that they need to hunt for food which was a big problem, especially since Hyunsung and Jeongsun like to play dirty in their hunting session. They always make a big mess and there was one time when someone witnessed their hunting.

That doesn't mean they haven't to like it though. They need food supplies and other stuff that is needed too. Though, they still hide after doing many crimes in the city like stealing millions of pennies.

It's not easy to get away from Seoul though, they dealt with hardships and were forced to face the reality that they must work hard. They needed to break a leg to earn money to build a house somewhere in the middle of nowhere. The group knew that building this house in the middle of the woods would mean isolation, but that was exactly what they wanted in the first place.

They don't trust people anymore after all they did to them and have practically abandoned society, earning their living by having each other and working at home too.

Junghwan stayed away from human interaction while Fin still suffers from what they called a rut.

"How's your work?" Jihae asked first thing in the morning as he stared at his lover lovingly.

For the past months, Fin hadn't cut his hair yet and so it has gotten long and it sat above his shoulder but for Jihae or everyone, it suits him well, he looks pretty with a mullet hair of style though. "It's fine," he answered shortly. "Commission is overflowing." He chuckled.

"That's great. Can I see your recent work?" Jihae asked and Fin gladly turned his laptop to his lover to show the works that he just finished yesterday.

Jihae can't help but smile after seeing how beautiful the artworks Fin drew. Well, Jihae wasn't a fan of art but he couldn't deny that drawing was fun especially when he has nothing to do.

He's working as an author while his partner is a comic creator.

"And yours?" Fin asked, eyeing Jihae with his chin placed above his palm.

"Doing fine too," he answered shortly while still staring at the beautiful art.

Jihae turned back Fin's laptop before drinking his tea. Fin kept on watching him with adoration in his eyes. Staring at the boy he's so fond of, observing his face meticulously even he did it over and over the years. Jihae's skin looks so soft and his cheeks are adorable as he all relaxed, his mouth slightly open, breathing calmly. His hair has colored a shade of light brown and it's silky and smooth that illuminates through the sun.

Fin unconsciously touched it carefully, enjoying how it glides between his small fingers and Jihae smiled at him fondly.

"Admiring me again, Finie?" he cooed as Fin blushed before turning back his full attention to his laptop.

Jihae sighed happily before bringing his hand on Fin's hair, he slide it down to his lover's face. The urge of kissing Fin is killing him.

Fin was slightly shocked when Jihae turned his head at him and before knowing it, Jihae was already kissing him passionately with full of love. No tongue, no teeth, no rough movements, just a gentle kiss with both lips glued together while moving softly. This is what Fin liked the most though.

Soon both parted and smiled at each other.

"Ooohhh~ so sweet~ "Jeongsun sang from the balcony.

Both couples looked up and saw Jeongsun with his brother Junghwan looking at them with a smile.

"As much as I hate not to disturb you two, but Minhee hyung wants to talk about the hunting session!" Junghwan said before going back inside and soon the older follow.

Both looked at each other before running back to the house with excitement.

Minhee stared intently at the poor boy who was still crying while tied in chains on the dirty mattress. He hates beautiful things and this boy was incredibly stunning which was only sending him to the reality that someone is still missing. The boy sobbed but he didn't show any empathy or mercy to the boy, instead, it only made him angrier. Just seeing the boy made him feel so empty, and lonely despite having seven beautiful lovers, it's not enough.

He wanted something so special. Something he wanted so badly, that he craved it. He wanted to have that person, he just wanted a person.

He sighed, taking out his phone and checking the google map. He stood up and walked out of the basement leaving the boy in tears and pain.

Minhee plopped on the soft mattress of their L-shaped sofa.

He's not jealous. Minhee is absolute, most certainly NOT jealous. He could care less that Jihae and Fin are head over heels in love, or that Hyunsung cozies up to Jeongsun every stuffing.

He wasn't jealous until all of them got all lovey-dovey too. But to be honest, it made him want to puke. Even now as he sits in the living room in their house, he's silently boiling, thinking about the emptiness of his heart.

It seemed that there was still a missing piece in their group and Minhee need to find it to complete the puzzle.

"Why are you seating here? You're frowning like every day whenever you woke up." Junghwan dropped down next to him, nuzzles into him, and got into his space without even asking.

"Was that even matter?" he said angrily, turning full attention to his phone.

"Of course. Why are you frowning like that?" Junghwan asked, poking his knitted brows.

Minhee can't tell it but he needs to be honest with his lovers, they need to be honest with each other.

Junghwan caught the bother in Minhee's eyes. He runs his fingers through Minhee's hair and the older leaned into his touch.

Junghwan chuckled at the cute side of Minhee despite of being dominant. "If anything is bothering you, you can always tell us."

Minhee sighed. The main house is relatively quiet at the moment. The others were probably outside again, Hyunsung and Jeongsun were in the forest right now fishing. Both had recently developed an affinity for fishing and Minhee, even Seunghyun, was glad that the two quickly immersed in fishing unlike before -- or unless they were fishing people.

He knows what kind of psychos his lovers are, even himself.

Hyunsung loves stuffing people so much, so Minhee assigned him to do the stuffing and cooker of their house. Though sometimes Hyunsung was out of hand, they managed to put him in place.

Jeongsun was much of a problem than Hyunsung. He liked to lure someone into their dwell and began his little fun. But Minhee makes sure to remind Jeongsun to lure him into their wolf den not in their main house.

"Are you still there?" Junghwan lifted his chin suddenly. Minhee nearly jumps out of his skin, completely lost in thought again.

Minhee shook his head before distancing himself away from the youngest. A black cat jumped on Junghwan's lap and Minhee stared at his mate and the cat.

Minhee was over heels in love with Junghwan and aside from that, they believed that they were mates, or so, they were mated to be but there was still an emptiness in his heart. The knot hasn't reached the edge of mating. Minhee felt like there was another person who was out there meant to be one of their group.

He knew that his little brother Fin was feeling the same way as he was, but never bothered showing or telling it to them.

Their little group was much more like werewolves but different than that. Yes, they can experience rut, especially Fin -- his rut was much stronger than the others -- but they never transform into normal wolves like in the stories and movies. They were different.

He knew exactly why they turned like this, and he knew the fault for their changes.

Minhee is somewhat proud that they all got through it and came together as a group.

"What exactly are you thinking?" Junghwan tried to ask again, sounding annoyed.

Minhee blinked his eyes, staring down at his phone before back up at Junghwan who looked like he was about to explode. The younger has the temper, an impatient brat if Minhee thought.

He smiled, turning his full attention to the younger. He leaned forward at Junghwan and placed a soft kiss on his lips. He felt a vibration from Junghwan's lips when he chuckled, Minhee pulled away, staring confusingly at the younger.

"What's so funny?" he asked.

"I just remembered your brother and Jihae. They just can't keep their hands to themselves when they are around each other."

"Even you," he snorted.

Junghwan's face fell and it's Minhee's turned to chuckle.

"But seriously, what are you thinking?" the younger asked again.

Minhee turned serious and sighed. He was about to open his mouth when the door behind them opened, revealing Seunghyun who has his book in his hand, and his glasses rest above his nose. He looked composed as always and if Minhee will be asked who among them has the weakest rut? That is Seunghyun. He can endure his rut unlike them.

"I have something to say," he said, searching for something in his pocket until he pulled out one of their victims' flip-up phones.

"What is it? Why are you showing that cheap phone?" Minhee asked but told Junghwan to call the under and the youngest nodded before walking out of the house.

"I think someone located us."

***

Hyeop was done arranging the book in the library and done contacting the people who borrowed books and never once returned them. It was busy hours for Hyeop, he tried not to ignore the girls drooling over him and he tried to not too sounds harsh at the people who giving him silent treatment while asking questions about the books they going to borrow.

He was currently seating on his chair while reading books as well just to survive the boredom when he heard the door open. Hyeop greeted them with a smile. But when he saw the uniform of the cops, his smile turned into a thin line. Two cops have entered the library and directed to the person.

Hyeop remembered that this town was surrounded by murderers but never once saw their identity.

As Hyeop sat waiting for one of the three traffic lights in town to turn green, he peeked to the right- he see Mrs. Cha had turned her whole torso in his direction while holding her phone. Her eyes bored into him, and Hyeop flinched back, wondering why she didn't drop her gaze or look ashamed. It was still considered rude to stare at people, wasn't it?

Hyeop felt his phone vibrated and he took it out from his pocket, unlocking it with the pattern until a text message from Mrs. Cha, his boss from his other part-time, popped out.

Mrs. Cha: I have a project for you. I want you to take a photo of the vandalized nearby at the entrance of the town.

He replied yes before turning his phone off and looked at Mrs. Cha outside. Then he remembered that these windows were so darkly tinted that she probably had no idea if he was inside. Does he wondered why the owner of this truck wanted the window tinted like this?

The light turned green and he stomped on the gas pedal. Engine snarling like a hunting panther, the truck jolted forward so fast that his body slammed into the black leather seat and his stomach flattened against his spine.

He hasn't learned yet how to drive properly.

Hyeop gasped as he fumbled for the brake. He took deep breaths before finally driving like he always does.

Drive slowly for safety. That was the read on the internet.

He soon arrived in the forest, a long path spread before him. The weather was nice and he felt relieved to choose to stay in the forest than back in the city despite his twin's protest. It was the best for them and he made sure his twin get that. Hyeop stared at the small path for his truck to fit in. The trees were huge and the bushes were not that thick. He can see the clear grounds from here and the river from the distance.

He continued to drive peacefully until a wolf ran past in front of his car. Hyeop stomped the brake causing the car to stop, and his body almost flew to the dashboard.

"The fuck was that? Was that a wolf? There's a wolf here?" he muttered to himself. "But Jin hyung made sure that there was no wild animal in this area -- "

Hyeop paused thinking that maybe there was, after all this is a forest and they chose to live here with wild animals. "I hope there's no boar in here. That will be bad," he muttered once again before jamming the gear and continued driving. It took one hour before he finally arrived in their small cabin.

"Hyeopie!!!"

Hyeop almost stumbled when Sunie jumped behind him and wrapped his arms around his shoulder, riding him from the back. He cursed, quickly slamming the door shut of the truck.

"Don't shock me like that! I could slip you know!" Hyeop hissed, glaring at his twin.

Sunie rolled his eyes. "But I'm too happy to see you back again. Oh, I remember when our house got raided before, and remember the woman who wanted to be your wife?"

Hyeop cringed at the memory. What happened when their mother went missing and their auntie took them to her barn, just when they got raided by her gamblers. It was raining so hard when they managed to escape from their offenders. That's when Jinki's mother took them in and filed a case against their auntie.

"Don't bring that up. I slowly moving on you see." Hyeop scoffed and headed inside their small cabin. Sunie followed behind him with a content smile.

When they were inside, Sunie closed the door behind him, not letting the cold wind get in. He stared at his twin with a smile and then, suddenly he was again behind Hyeop, wrapping his arms around him.

"Welcome back," Sunie whispered to his ears.

Hyeop sighed, taking off his coat and putting it on the coat hanger. He turned on the lights of the foyer and slipped off his shoes. Sunie still hugging him from behind.

"Don't whisper on my ears Junhyuk."

Sunie scoffed, hating whenever his twin called him by his true name but it gives him excitement throughout his body.

"Did you eat already?"

"Yeah..." he whispered again.

Hyeop shrugged his twin off but Junhyuk have his tight grip again until he heard him whine.

"What is it?"

He waited Junhyuk answer before he heard him took a deep sigh. Hyeop already knew what his twin wanted. He removed his arms around him and walked to the bathroom. He took his twin's medicine their other auntie, Mrs. Lee Jae, gave when she felt something was not right with Junhyuk's condition.

It seemed she knew something he don't which caused him to wonder. And the words Mrs. Lee Jae thought him remained in his mind.

'As an older twin, you need to take care of your brother whenever he is in pain, got that?'

Hyeop doesn't know what she meant but when he figured out, he willingly gave a hand to help his twin.

He was about to open the bottle when he felt Junhyuk's arms wrapped around him again. He was also starting to smell nice, his twin was reek of flower scent and Hyeop was allergic to good scents like sweet and flower, he would sneeze. He covered his nose and closed his eyes, feeling his twin nuzzling his nose on the crook of his neck. He felt Junhyuk pulled his back to his chest. Junhyuk was fucking hard.

Hyeop cursed under his breath, not liking how his twin needed him again despite having medicine. He would take that and then ask him to fuck him. He can't do that to him anymore.

Even though Hyeop read hundred of books about werewolves, and watched movies, those stories can't convince him that what happened to his twin was exactly like those. Was Junhyuk in his heat?

Is Junhyuk an omega?

That made no sense and if he looked at the sign; normal people don't experience something like this. They only can feel lust but not rut.

Hyeop was somewhat grateful that he hasn't experienced something like that instead he experienced being so thirsty. Even he drank water, he was still thirsty and becoming more grumpy. It happens once a week and he needs to go to the library to search for his illness.

Until he read about gloat.

There was no way he is a gloat and his twin is an omega or something like a wolf?

That will be a great jest in Hyeop.

Their situation was so unsettling, disturbing, and overwhelming with forbidden relationships against siblings. This was inc*st if anyone thought about their situation, but for Hyeop it was not, he was just trying to help his twin. That would every brother do even within him, he does not want to do it anymore but he doesn't know how even his twin deal with the heat.

"Twin... " Junhyuk whines, biting his twin's clean neck. "... want you."
