Presence Effect~
Two days had passed since Jungkook woke in the healer’s hut.
With his wound slowly healing~
Hana deemed him strong enough to make the trip to the PCO in the next town.
The journey was long~ taken on a rickety bicycle~ with Jungkook grumbling the entire way about the dusty roads and lack of cars.
At the PCO~ he called his parents~ his voice low and tense.
They urged him to stay in the village for a week.
Mr Jeon hyunsik
Let our rivals think you’re dead~
Jeon Jungkook
I’ll handle things here.
Mrs jeon Hyun
Take care of yourself son~
Jeon Jungkook
I'll don't worry.
Jungkook~ understanding the mafia world’s dangers and the enemies who wanted him gone~
Nodded grimly. He had no choice.
Jungkook approached Mr. Kim~ who was tending the fields.
Jeon Jungkook
I need to stay here for a few weeks~
Mr. Kim hesitated~ his face was uneasy.
He knew who Jungkook was a mafia alpha~
Dangerous and unpredictable.
Letting him stay could bring trouble to their peaceful village.
But refusing felt risky too. After a long pause~
He said~ waving off the offer of money.
Mr Kim
But don’t cause trouble.
Jungkook agreed~ though his attitude remained sour.
He sneered at the village’s simplicity the mud houses~
The lack of technology~ the slow pace.
He muttered~ kicking at a pebble.
Yet~ something about the place stirred him~
Though he’d never admit it.
Tae prepared a simple meal of rice~ vegetables~
His twelve-year-old sister~ Lily~ bounced around~ giggling as she teased Jungkook~
Who sat nearby on a wooden bench.
Lily
Why do you always look so grumpy~ city man~??
She chirped~ poking at his scowl.
Lily
Bet you can’t catch a fish like Tae Hyung
Lily
Such a waste of muscles
Jungkook’s jaw clenched~ his patience fraying.
Jeon Jungkook
Brat~ mind your own business~
Lily just laughed~ unfazed~ which only made him angrier.
Tae~ ignoring the scene~ handed out lunch to his parents and Lily, jk before grabbing a basket to take to his mother’s flower shop.
That familiar omega scent hit him again—floral~ soothing~ and maddeningly addictive.
Jungkook’s alpha instincts stirred~ a strange desire awakening deep within.
He shook his head~ disgusted with himself.
Jeon Jungkook
💭 A village boy~?? A poor omega~? Why am I even noticing him~?
Needing air~ Jungkook wandered to the nearby lake~
Where fish darted in clear water~ flowers bloomed brightly~
And birds sang overhead. He scowled.
Jeon Jungkook
Why’s everything here so… bright~? Weird.
But deep down~ the peace of it all sank into him.
Exhausted and oddly comforted~
He lay on the soft grass and fell asleep~
The village’s warmth lulling him in a way he couldn’t understand.
When Tae returned from the shop~ he decided to check on the stranger—still unaware of his name.
Not finding him in the hut~
He wandered toward the lake~
His heart skipping when he spotted Jungkook sprawled on the grass~ eyes closed.
Kim Taehyung
Isn’t he the one cursing nature~? Now sleeping like dead…
Tae muttered~ raising an eyebrow.
Hesitant~ Tae approached and knelt beside him~
His fragile nature making him wary.
He tapped Jungkook’s cheek lightly…
Kim Taehyung
Hey~ are you dead~?
Jungkook’s eyes snapped open~ glaring~
But his focus shifted to the soft palm on his cheek and Tae’s closeness.
That scent hit him again~ stronger now~ stirring his senses.
Panicked~ he pushed Tae away~ scrambling to his feet.
Jeon Jungkook
Stay away from me~ you witch!
Jeon Jungkook
I know you’re using some kind of black magic on me ...
Tae rolled his eyes~ standing up with a huff.
Kim Taehyung
Nonsense~ idiot~
He shot back~ glaring before turning away.
He walked to the other side of the lake~
Sitting by the water and chatting softly to the fish as if they'll understand~ as if they were old friends.
Jungkook’s tongue poked his cheek~ irritation flaring.
He hated how Tae’s presence affected him~ how a
With no luxury or status could make him feel anything.
Jeon Jungkook
He’s not worth it~
Jungkook told himself~ rolling his eyes. Yet~ as he watched Tae’s figure by the lake~
The village’s bright beauty seemed to blur~ and all he could see was that omega~ glowing brighter than anything else.
