《SECOND TRIAL | tk | ✓》54. MISERY
Advertisement
seokjin cursed everything out there for the poor construction of the stale room he is in.
like who the fuck puts the light bulb so low and so bright; it nearly is glowing like a sun above his head and its too hot the beta can physically feel the sweat rolling down his hairline.
considering how posh and pristine he is, its instinctual the way his arms try to move up to swipe the sweat away, but the clatter of the handcuffs with which he is bound to the chair only make him stiffle a groan low in his throat.
when the door slammed open to the interrogation room, he was momentarily relieved for the little breeze of cool air that slipped in followed by two officers, one being namjoon who stood guard of the door with his immaculate posture.
seokjin eyes sweeps over namjoon, the ghost of touches tingling up his spine like a residual memory had him skip a breath.
"you dont know jeon how long i've waited for to see you like this" one of the officers voice echoed as he circled around seokjin with a much proud face.
"congratulations to you-- i guess" seokjin shrugs and rolls his shoulders to ease the taunt muscles there as he lazily eyes the person.
the officer, an alpha chuckles lowly in his throat.
"i'm ilsung, your interrogator for this case-- and i'm gonna be honest with you jeon, my goal is to get atleast a lifetime imprisonment for you-" the alpha who stood infront of him was more like a dark shadow for seokjin in the awkward lighting, but he didn't need visibility to know that the man was adamant and determined to get whatever he is here for.
"where is your weapon godown?"
"how much are you involved with starlight"
"where is your brother hiding?"
either way its no compare to seokjin, the alpha looking down at him is only a good humor for him and no emotional manipulation is going to get into seokjins head.
"i will give you one more chance, jeon--- or this wont end well"
seokjin just smirked, meeting the alphas eyes.
the first hit of the police baton against his stomach had seokjin punch out a whoosh of air, teeth digging onto the lower lip to stop a whimper.
it was not hidden that the officer have some past grudge against jeons and he is very much irritated now with the betas behavior.
so that all projected as bruises on seokjin, hits after hits everytime the other refused to answer until drool slipped out from his busted lip and blood oozed from his wrist where the handcuffs dug in during his pained jerks.

"done with the cockiness, beta?" the interrogator growled, heaving in agitatation while he grabbed onto seokjins hair and pulled back, the betas eyes squinting at the direct assault of light onto his face.
the scrutinizing eyes swept over seokjins face to the trail of blood on his chin down to the uncovered neck,
"you know, with that face you could pass for an omega bitch", ilsungs eyes were dark as he pulled at the betas hair again making seokjin grind his teeth.
"---got such lovely cocksucking lips" the alpha hissed.
well, they sure made the mistake of leaving seokjins legs free because the next second the betas boots were colliding with the alphas knee making the chair slide back with the force.
ilsung crumbled onto his knees with a pained rumble and now below seokjins eye level, it was the perfect height for the beta to smirk down and hit the others face with the same expensive boot.
the alpha went down the floor clutching his bloody nose just a foot steps crashed onto the room.
the police officers that came running helped ilsung up and said more vile things to seokjin before handcuffing his ankles to the chair too,
and soon all of them left, except for namjoon.
the alpha had came forward, face a blank slate while uncapping a water bottle and extending it carefully towards seokjins lips.
"oh you care too much, darling" seokjin humored, even if he was wincing from bruises and was partially covered in his own blood.
"drink it, jin" namjoon just says and seokjin didn't protest much, instead greedily gulped down the water, eyes fluttering shut at the way his name rolled out of namjoons tongue.
"it will only get worse from here-- you have more enemies in the department than acquaintances" namjoon says low as if indirectly begging seokjin to spit out the truths and escape out of the awaiting torture.
"doesn't matter-- they aren't going to get anything out of my alive body" seokjin replied, voice dark,
because as always seokjin cant be selfish for himself, atleast as long as he knew his family is safe from all this.

everything is miserable, that was the single and the only way to describe the situation,
or atleast that was the condition for jungkook.
taehyung was still passed out unconsious, the omega couldn't keep his eyes open for more than a few seconds before they close shut weighed down by exhaustion and so far the only things he has said was 'pups?' and 'water', meanwhile the omega pup was still in ventillator two rooms from where they are right now.

the room was devoid of all necessities except for one bed and a table to place water and medicines and was a tab dit dusty and cold from unuse.
jungkook was now on the floor, right next to the bed where taehyung and the alpha pup is sleeping, clad in just the black hoodie and his boxers as he nursed his injuries with some bandages and alcohol swaps he borrowed.
jungkook grinded his teeth and grunted as he put alcohol to disinfect a knife cut on his forearm, breathing through his nose to not growl and alert anyone.
when the pain gets too much, he looks to the right where he can see his pup swaddled in a fluffy blanket, little tummy filled with milk moving up and down with breaths as the baby slept protected in the warmth of his mother and his fathers scents.
just as jungkook was wincing while he pulled up his pants, taehyung squirmed in his sleep, tired eyes blinking awake more clearly.
immediately the omegas eyes went to the pup sleeping beside him, a gentle smile overtaking his features as his one finger grazed the chubby cheeks as if to make sure its real.
"you feeling okay?" jungkook asked as he buckled his belt and taehyung winced, but still nodded.
but then the omegas eyes widened, frantically looking around.
"--where's??" he panicked at not seeing his other baby, but jungkook was quick to assure him.
"in the observation. he's alright" the alpha quickly added and the omegas face frowned deeper.
"can you--?"
"yeah yeah, i will check" before taehyung can even finish, jungkook was walking out of the room to the infirmary because for the love of god, if his alpha could he would have broke his body into two just so he can be at both the rooms simultaneously.
as he approached at the door, one of the assistant was gently removing the tubes around the tiny pup.
"i was just about to bring him for feeding" the assistant smiled seeing the alpha.
"is he alright now?" jungkook asked, eyes careful on the pup.
"yes. little guy just needed some time to adjust in the new world, didnt you--" she cooed at the baby as she picked the pup out with both arms.
jungkook shuffled closely behind the assistant as she took the pup towards the room taehyung was in.
in the room, the omega had his eyes on the alpha pup gently cooing as the pup held onto his finger, babbling.
if its possible, taehyungs face only brightened more as his eyes found his other pup in the assistants arms.
its so natural and motherly the way taehyungs arms extended and carefully took the pup into his own, cooing and smiling as he held the little bundle close.
soon the assistant left and jungkook sat at the edge of the bed, lightly gliding his fingers through the alphas pups fuzzy hair.
the omega pup in taehyungs arms opened his eyes and nuzzled onto the others chest, little hungry mouth searching and taehyung chuckled, heart filled to the brim with love.
still holding the pup close, taehyung unbuttoned the top buttons of his pajama shirt, before his eyes went towards jungkook.
"are you going to continue staring?" the omega asked, and the alpha shook out of his trance then narrowed his eyes.
"pft nothing i haven't seen before" jungkook grumbled under his breath.
"--hmm not entirely" the omega mumbled, keeping the two sides of his shirt closed with his fist, eyes glaring hard.
jungkook was momentarily curious by the statement, still whatsoever the alpha moved his attention towards the other baby, and taehyung continued cooing as the pup suckled with his doe eyes wide open on his eomma.
maybe everything is miserable, but this was nice, even in the silence it felt like a warm cocoon filled with all the dearest scents,
and even through the aches and pains, maybe there is nothing better than this feeling.
there warm bubble bursted when they heard a loud voice from the far end of the corridor,
precisely a gun shot.
jungkook was on his feet, stance defensive as he shushed a panicking taehyung and inched towards the door.
through the peeking gap, jungkook could see the front door wide open and a form laying motionless on the floor in a pool of blood, it being the assistant that had left minutes before after handing over their pup.
jungkook saw multiple silhouettes clad in black entering as they for no care walked over the dead body,
and at the front of all was kim kyunjae, gun barrel still hot in his arm.
jungkook flinched back from the door, hands instinctively feeling the gun and knife in his pockets.
jungkook knew they didn't have much time in peace afterall; not when entire seoul is searching for them.
"alpha?" taehyungs scared voice called from the bed where the omega had swaddled both of his pups close to his chest,
and when jungkooks eyes met taehyungs, he wanted to appear strong and reassuring,
but they were scared.
