Who knows—
The two days that Taehyung focused on recovering seemed so short.
Alpha was able to stand up well, carry his son and chat with the family.
At first it still seemed impossible. It's still hard to believe the son has been born. But the more Taehyung hugged him, the more he realized.
Even Jeongguk's parents — They are so grateful.
Taehyung remembered how Hyesun even cried for him.
Hyeyoon who never even stopped smiling when he saw him.
Taehyung remembered how he trembled when he found Myung Dae crying. When Myung Dae blinked his pretty eyes. That figure is so charming. With a nose like Jeongguk's, and eyes and eyebrows that are similar to him.
It's clearly their son.
Even the image of Jeongguk hugging Myung Dae while smiling and kissing his forehead was able to spread a cool feeling that Taehyung couldn't help but smile.
He admitted that all of that would be a beautiful memory later.
Memories after he left.
Early morning, 2 a.m. This is where Taehyung decided to go home.
The morning which was long before the sun rose. Where he again saw the tears that this time came from Hyeyoon. The girl didn't want to look at him. Saying that he might grab her and lock her up from leaving.
It's a lie if Taehyung isn't touched.
The statement if 4 months won't change anything is actually wrong.
Once he got permission and an honest farewell made him unable to say much— He finally came out. Walking with Jeongguk and Myung Dae in his arms.
During these two days Jeongguk didn't say much.
The vampire will only give him kisses and hugs when they sleep together.
Honestly— Taehyung also doesn't know what to say goodbye to.
The wind that pierced the skin accompanied the two who walked into the forest.
Taehyung has decided to go back alone, because he doesn't want to harm Jeongguk by bringing him into the Pack. Moreover— He did miss the feeling of walking in the forest. Even though it was dark, Taehyung felt he could see everything.
The two of them were still walking until the Alpha felt that their second step had gone too deep. He stopped.
"I guess it only ends here." Taehyung muttered. Without realizing it, his son's embrace strengthened.
Can't escape. In fact this is so difficult. What he planned did not go according to his expectations. Hope to let go and forget everything easily.
"Thank you."
Taehyung turned his head. Overlooking Jeongguk. How many times did the vampire thank him?
"You've said too much. You took care of Myung Dae all this time. Stop thanking him." Taehyung replied.
The eyes of the two were locked. There are many hidden sentences that are not spoken.
To the point where Taehyung felt the imprint on his chest became more and more— Alpha looked away. Gives the son a kiss on the forehead before handing it over to Jeongguk.

"Be a good Daddy for him." Taehyung didn't understand why he just said that.
"I think I have to go now." The Alpha muttered.
There are more. He has something to say. But it all felt so wrong.
The Alpha was still silent. Swallowed hard. His gaze fell on the damp ground below.
Until when one hand Jeongguk raised his chin.
"Be careful. Convey my greetings and apologies to your family."
Jeongguk said softly. Face closer before finally feeling a kiss on his right cheek Taehyung.
the end.
Taehyung should be able to step away immediately.
But one step back, one step back, another step heavy.
The Alpha looked up at the sky. Staring at the moon which currently seems only half.
If it's so despicable. If it's like this, what is he afraid of?
Covering up everything doesn't make what happens can be repeated and avoided.
Taehyung's sad annoyance was heard when Alpha turned around.
"Sorry." He said.
Jeongguk stared at him. Origin was still faithfully waiting for a sentence that might have been read.
"Sorry that I took my word for it. I fell in love with you. I might really like you."
Taehyung admits his defeat.
Origin 's jaw was visibly hardened. Her red eyes even sparkled.
Taehyung pinched his hand. Feel immense relief.
Let's make it like this. Just leave it like this. If only Jeongguk knew about his feelings. So so be it. This was too much for him to hide by himself. For him about being alone.
"Taehyung."
Alpha was paying attention again. Beating loudly when all he got this time was a charming smile from Jeongguk.
"I always love you. Promise to live happily. Find your mate and get married."
Taehyung clearly smiled at that sentence. Smile because that's what he has to do.
But somehow now it sounds as if it is impossible.
"Goodbye." The Alpha muttered. Give one last smile before turning around.
Forcing her feet to move away from there.
Already completed. They are done. And all current dreams must be erased immediately.
Taehyung chants every step of the way. Hoping that the pain in his gut will soon fade.
Who knows how long he walked— Trying to divert his mind by imagining the faces of his friends and parents.
A little warmth hit him. He missed. Of course. As Alpha he clearly misses his family.
Four months were in fact so short. It's ridiculous to remember that he once risked his life just to leave the castle with Hyeyoon. And now he is totally free again.
Taehyung snorted. Rubbed his stomach which clearly still had marks there.
The Alpha accelerated the pace. Slightly smiled when he finally found his Moren clan in front of his eyes.
It's still too early for the wolves to come out of the house. But in case someone was on duty to look around— He chose to go through the backyard.

Taehyung stopped his steps as soon as his nose smelled a strange wolf. Not one but so many.
Has anyone visited?
If so then he should be more careful.
Alpha decided to climb up to his bedroom window when he reached the back of his house. Even though it was hard because of his condition, but when he found his bedroom window in front of his eyes, Taehyung smiled.
He really came home.
With his chest still beating— Taehyung opened it slowly.
But Alpha's breath was choked. He smelled blood.
Who?
Panic.
Hurry inside and try to look around at a slow pace. His chest was burning. There was a feeling of fear.
Taehyung held his breath. He was shocked to death to find the living room of his house containing a group of wolves from another pack.
Not only that.
His family— Several guards and even his three best friends were there.
Bound. Badly injured.
Taehyung's legs trembled without being asked.
In the frenzy that stiffened her body— She tried to remember the faces of the bastards there.
Taehyung knows him, they've met sometime.
Too many guests had visited in their mansion. And Taehyung clearly understood the situation that was happening right now. They are trying to take their clan. Tried to kill their Alpha, killed his father and mother. This is tantamount to the attack of dawn.
Damn. Damn bastard.
Taehyung unconsciously sobbed silently. He peeked again. Until then his gaze met his mother's. Taehyung's lips trembled. Between her mother's bloodied face— The beautiful Luna gave a happy gaze. Meanwhile, the cunning wolves were negotiating. Talking about what Taehyung doesn't want to care about.
Jihyun seemed to give a sign to the others. They looked at Taehyung in turn. And his gaze fell on his three friends who were crying silently. To the point where Yoongi got a wound on his neck and closed his eyes— Taehyung felt his heart stab. Jimin seemed to be trying to nudge Alpha. His mouth was bleeding no longer speaking.
In between his blurry vision, Taehyung sees his father. The Alpha sent a message in his head.
'Dad knows you're coming home.'
'Go Taehyung. You can't end up like us. '
Taehyung shook his head.
'Taehyung— We love you. Go. Save yourself for us. '
It was her mother's voice. Taehyung still didn't move.
Why? Why is it like this?
After he managed to occupy the appointment and return.
Why did the nightmare come back ?!
Alpha's mind was frozen.
But once Jimin's and Hoseok's voices came back in. Taehyung gasped, started walking backwards.
"Get our revenge."
'For us.'
'To Yoongi. And the Moren clan who died tonight. '
At that moment Taehyung ran away. Away from his house with a broken heart and mind.
Alpha is messed up. Keep running with flooded tears littering the cheeks.
Until the moment his legs gave up— Taehyung fell down.
It growled pitifully as his two fists hit the ground.
The rest of his mind was still open— The Alpha patted his chest. Steeled himself before wiping his harsh tears.
"Jeongguk."
Her voice trembled.
But the tone filled with anger made the whisper sound piercing.
"Jeongguk— Do you hear me?"
Back, Taehyung said. It doesn't matter if the forest is so dark. So quiet.
He was sure the Origin would listen. He is sure.
Or is he so desperate.
"They killed my family— Jeongguk you hear? They killed my family— You said you liked me didn't you? You said you would continue to love me— Please." Taehyung paused. Take a breath when it feels so tight.
"Please kill them for me. Help me— I swear on my freedom, I swear I will give you whatever you ask. Jeongguk—" Her speech broke off.
The cold Jeongguk scent wafted. And Taehyung failed not to sob. He's in pain. So want to get angry and so want to finish them all.
One embrace brought Taehyung's body falling in the arms of Origin.
Jeongguk is coming.
Jeongguk hears it.
Alpha hugged him back. Squeeze Jeongguk's back. Hiding his face on the vampire's shoulders.
"I'll give you anything. I'll do anything— I'll be your bride. You can make me a part of your family. I don't care— Please kill them all for me." Taehyung muttered. Bursting a burning feeling in his chest that didn't go away.
In shortness of breath recording all the terrifying images in his head just so that Jeongguk can hear his mind. Just so that the vampire knows how terrible the day should be, which should be the most memorable.
Until one stroke on his back— Taehyung felt his burden being taken away slowly. Feeling a little relieved when Jeongguk's deep voice buzzed in his ears.
"Killing to have you completely— I'll gladly do. But do you really want it?"
Taehyung nodded. Nodding and grimacing when resentment just spills over.
"Because of that—" Jeongguk's words stopped.
Taehyung felt the vampire pulling the side of his face. Forcing their two blind eyes to meet.
"Stop crying. You make my heart hurt."
Taehyung was listening quietly. Letting when those cold fingers brush his cheek.
"I'm also losing to your family— Of course, I'll take your revenge. It's my pleasure. Remember, you still have a family. You still have Myung Dae."
And at that moment Taehyung's tears fell again. Not. Not because of pain.
But because he knew he still had hope to survive.

8 148Apostle of the Goddess
A disappointed man dreams of leaving the confines of Earth and living adventures in fantastic realms...Suddenly, his wish is granted... Albeit in a far different way from what he could have expected. An isekai genre story with a few elements from LitRPG. The overall tone will be jumping back and forth from light to dark. Expect a lot of references to anime, manga, games, etc.It is written in first-person view and will contain a side-story using a "real-life" character. Initially, the MC will be writing the story as a true journal, so the prologue and first chapters may appear a mess of things that already happened, journal entries, and afterthoughts. A few chapters in, it will change into a normal, first-person manner retelling of what happened (storywise the character "Records" what happened to him). This is a side project of mine, so I will be uploading a few chapters per month. Chapters may have a severe difference in length (albeit I will try to maintain them around 3k), but expect the overall monthly word count to be not less than 15k words.Author recommendation, if you intend to follow the story, read the new updates once a month (counting from the day the first chapter is uploaded). Content Warning: I do intend to include a few disturbing moments to emphasize the darkness of the human (and other beings) nature, so please consider that even though some chapters (especially the starting ones) are kinda like a comedy routine.

!! STORY WILL BE REFURBISHED SOON !!- •PK High School receives another transfer student! Woohoo! His name is Asher Morteli. 1/3 American, 1/3 Asian, and 1/3 Italian. Though, he usually either sticks with Asian or American, depending on the situation.Asher is.. well, he's a bad boy, I guess. It's not the best title, but it kinda sticks with him, seeing with how he acts.Asher's mother had recently had some family issues that grew out of hand, so they ended up moving back to Japan. He truly didn't care, it's wasn't like he was extremely close with his friends. And this was just a natural thing that happens in life, so there's no point in moping about it.He was glad to be leaving his past behind, anyway. America had too many bad memories...So, all we can do is hope he'll have an easier time in Japan, yes?!!so, yeah. i should plan fanfics thoroughly before writing them.enjoy ig?? and yeahhhhhSTARTED:: November 18th, 2021ENDED:: January 16th, 2022
