taehyung dreamed himself as leto- hunting in the dark and raising the moon into the night sky; pregnant and plagued under others wrath until he found a lone island to give birth to the twins.

troubled, feeling rather lonely, he found himself in the elaborate bath tub in the ensuite, bubbles till his neck and surrounded by soothing scents of the products he stole from jungkooks cupboard.

taehyung lathered his skin, which has become too soft to the touch now, pale rather than the golden glow it used to be, stretch marks blooming where his bump starts and soreness around his pecs.

then he closed his eyes, basking in the light warmth of the water that leaves his muscles relaxed, a sigh leaving his lips, just blessed silence.

taehyung got about 20 minutes before the silence was cracked by the familiar stomping sounds of boots.

"taehyung?" he heard jungkooks muffled voice from outside and sank deeper into the tub, the water sloshing from the sides.

and then the ensuite door slammed open, the omega huffed, opening a bleary eye to stare at the dark shadow of his husband.

when taehyung managed to open two of his drowsy eyes, jungkook was now looming over him like a bull that saw red.

"...having a little princess bath while i was taking care of your clutter?" taehyung heard the sneer and mentally cried for whatever that is jungkook going to shout about.

a total of 46 articles.

from CEO of starlight caught abusing his pregnant omega? to market value of starlight enterprises dips after the controversy with the CEO being an absuser.

omega activists screaming under his instagram posts, his little fanbase trending hashtags and the company board making him climb a wall and seokjin nowhere seen to clear up it all- jungkook had a field day at work.

jungkooks phone screen thats right on his face shows an article with blurred photos of himself being dragged to the car by scruff, all tear stained face and hands holding the belly and he looks up at jungkook and gives an unimpressed look.

"you expected me to smile and kiss you, when you slap me?" he asks the alpha and jungkook rumbles, angry scents giving taehyung a headache as he grumbles under his breath.

resigning of getting any more peace, taehyung tried to haul himself out of the bath, but not getting a good grip since its slippery and the additional weight of his bump.

seeing him struggle in the soapy water, jungkook stepped close and hauled him out effortlessly with taehyung squeaking at the lurch.

now standing very naked out of the tub, dripping onto the floor, taehyung flailed his arms for jungkook to move and covered himself with a fluffy towel that he kept closeby.

"nothing i haven't seen before" the alpha rolls his eyes but just staying there taking a once over of taehyungs form until the omega got tired of throwing glares and instead dried his hair.

the alphas annoyed growls and him taking and screaming into the calls continued all night- all of it ticking taehyungs patience one by one, leaving him frustrated and anxious.

"This is all your fault" jungkook growls at the omega at one point and taehyung flinches inside the nest and then promptly breaks into tears.

its not one of those silent cries the omega usually does, instead loud wails, face scrunching and fat tears rolling down the cheeks, taking harsh breaths so much that jungkook stares dumbfolded.

"i-i hate you s-so much i wanna strangle you i-in your sleep-" taehyung hiccups balling the sheet in angry fists.

"--w-what alpha even are you?-- you dont even care about your pups- i missed two appointments--" he rubs angrily at his red nose and continues crying.

"at-atleast all those people have the commonsense you dont have--your stupid ego-- i'm married to a psychopath" his lips never cease wobbling- "n-now i will have to run away and give birth on an island" he sniffles, thinking about his scary dream.

"what island?" jungkook asks startled but taehyung only continues his self lament.

and when finally his cries died down, taehyung slumps into the nest and grumbles a "i want chocolate cake".

stupid mood swings.

taehyung then takes a peak at jungkook through his wet lashes and sees the alpha just staring at him.

"i will get a chocolate cake" jungkook announces and quickly strides out of the room.

for quite a few minutes taehyung stares at the door, thinking jungkook will just barge in with a gun. and when that didn't happen, he rubs at his eyes and let out a tired yawn until his eyes find jungkook phone unlocked on the bed.

he scrambles to it before the screen turns black and just curiously browses through and opens the instagram app.

now jungkook surprisingly has a couple million followers, unlike the asshole aura he carries the account is aesthetic- from pics of him in suits at events to thirst traps of him at the gym; sweaty, veiny hands, abs and taehyung feels a little hot under the collar.

then a ridiculous idea hits him and he quickly types in jimin instagram account, excitement bubbling since he misses his friend dearly.

jimin have a couple thousand followers, but there is no recent posts, precisely from since after they were kidnapped.

taehyung suddenly gets anxious and swifts below the comments to see people crying on why jimin isn't active anymore.

taehyung also goes through the accounts of university clubs jimin was in only to not find him in any recent posts.

the omega feels himself shaking a little.

jimin might have taken a break from social media? he is safe somewhere.

taehyung tells himself gulping down the bad thoughts while deleting away the searches and leaving the phone where it was.

when jungkook returned, the room still permeated of a distressed omega with taehyung sulking in the middle of his nest.

"heres your chocolate cake" the alpha dumps it onto the bed, a neat small white box that smelled really delicious.

taehyung visibly perks up, though feigning nonchalance even if his omega is dancing in all fours inside him at the bare minimum care his alpha is showing.

taehyung opened the box, ready to dive in just at the sight of chocolate glaze, keeping it propped over his bump for easy access, little fork that came with it ready in his hand.

"wait" the alpha then says and taehyung withers.

is this another one of the alphas sick moves? dangling a delicious cake infront him and then taking it away?

but then, jungkook takes his abandoned phone and opens the camera app taking a pic of the cake propped on taehyungs belly.

the alpha then frowns at his phone, eyebrows furrowed in concentration.

"give me your hand" the alpha directs at taehyung who confusedly outstreches his hand clasped around the black plastic fork.

when the alpha took the fork away, taehyung pouts staring longingly at the cake infront of him.

then jungkook holds taehyungs hand and settles it on the bump, careful of the cake and places his own hand on top so that their wedding rings are aligned side by side.

then jungkook again goes back to the phone, adjusting the contrast and brightness and clicking several pics.

"can i just eat the cake?" the omega complains at some point and finally gets a nod from jungkook and dives in after taking the fork.

the alpha settles by the nest while taehyung hummed around the sweetness and he peered at the phone in jungkooks hand.

"-oh thats cute" taehyung without thinking mumbles out at the picture jungkook had took.

the edited picture looked really romantic- the shine of their rings, the baby bump covered in taehyungs pink silky pajama shirt and the cute cake on top- looks just like a cute little date.

jungkook hums, opening instagram and ready to post it but getting stuck on what to put as the caption.

"i love you♡" jungkook types and taehyung snorts around his fork.

jungkook deletes it.

"had the best day with you!" taehyung quips a brow. afterall taehyungs distress scents are still lingering around them.

so, jungkook deletes it again.

the alpha sighs.

taehyung knows jungkook is doing this to tone down the controversy, but oh is he enjoying seeing jungkook with not even a single romantic bone in his body do this? a big yes.

when jungkook goes back onto his phone, taehyung eagerly peeks over the alphas shoulder.

jungkook then takes a moment, finger hovering over the screen and then types-

"ours is not a fairy tale... but the three of you in my arms is the peaceful i ever am"

the alpha didn't contemplate on this much, instead posts it and closes the app.

taehyung nibbles around the fork, eyes staring blankly at the black screen.

"hm that was a good one" he sounded impressed, before going back to finishing his cake.

jungkook only grunts in response.

by the time, taehyung is done with the cake, his eyes were drooping leaning his weight more and more onto jungkook.

and soon jungkook had taehyung smothering his face onto his chest, the cake bits around his lips staining the white shirt.

"taehyung, go wash your face" jungkook tries but the omega was dead to the world around him.

at the end, jungkook resorted to wiping his face with the end of the blanket and just closed his eyes.

there was a lot in the alphas mind, too much pressure he doesn't know how to handle.

ultimately he felt peaceful, for he had his three in his arms.
