"Are you still not going to tell me your name?" Jungkook sat in front of Taehyung.

The older of the two wasn't pleased by their meeting even though Jungkook acted very nicely toward him.

"Why do you want to know it that much? It doesn't matter to anyone." Taehyung mumbled.

"It does to me." the younger said. "You will be now living in my house so I need to know you."

Taehyung lifted his head to stare at Jungkook's eyes. He could see sincerity and kindness but he wouldn't let such things win his heart.

He lost all his social abilities since his mother's death. The only person he talked to, or barely talked to, was his brother.

He was afraid to get attached to someone and lose him or her after, like he lost his mother. She was killed by an alpha wolf and was thrown in the middle of the woods.

"Fine. My name is Taehyung, are you happy?"

"A lot." Jungkook smiled widely. "So Taehyung! Do you like tea or coffee?"

The older stared at him confusingly. "Did you forget that I'm your slave or should I remind you? Stop acting like you're kind.."

"But I'm not acting.." the alpha pouted and got his face closer to the younger who flinched at this sudden close distance between them.

Jungkook realized he was uncomfortable and moved his face away from him. "I'm sorry.. it's just that your scent.. you know.." he blushed, regretting to already making himself look creepy in front of the newcomer.

"A Beta's scent isn't that strong." Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows.

"I know but yours is kinda different I don't know why.." Jungkook nervously rubbed the back of his neck. "So you didn't tell me, coffee or tea?"

"I don't want any act of charity." Taehyung faked a smile and went to his room.

"Why so rude..." Jungkook sighed.

????

The next morning, Jinyoung woke Jimin up to do his chores.

He prepared the leader's bath and his clothes. He also asked the cooks to prepare his breakfast and ate something before doing his hardest mission. Wake Yoongi up.

The butler warned him of the hard task.

He kept staring around him. He had never been in such a large kitchen before. There were a total of five people working inside, each one in his position.

The interior of the kitchen was very modern compared to the one he had in his house. The chefs had at their disposal very sophisticated electronic devices and utensils he had never seen before.

He crunched on his toast as he watched a large jar on the floor below the marble counter.

He thought of a diabolical idea.

"Sir, can I borrow this jar?" he asked one of the cooks.

"Sure but what do you need it for?"

"Oh, just for something personal." the younger smirked before getting up to fill it with fresh water.

He quickly cleaned the table and headed upstairs to the master's room.

He opened the door to be greeted by extreme darkness and a very strong smell. "Ew it stinks." he scrunched his nose.

He came in and opened the curtains and the window to ventilate the room, or rather the suite. He opened his eyes wide when he realized how spacious and well decorated the room was.

He was not surprised to see the dominance of black and gray inside the suite. The furniture was of a black wood which was honestly very much to his liking. He thought it looked very modern and classy at the same time. The walls were decorated with portraits of what Jimin guessed were famous old pianists of the genre Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin.

He recognized them right away because he himself was a piano lover.

He liked it since the day he accompanied his late parents to a piano recital when he was ten years old.

He didn't have the chance to learn it because his parents weren't rich enough to buy him a piano or pay him classes.

Also, his father was opposing this idea because he wanted him to concentrate more on his training. He always told him that a Beta's duty was to protect his pack and protect his Alphas.

Because of that, he spent his entire childhood and his teenage days in the fields, running to improve his endurance, fighting with his companions to gain reflex and strength and swimming to relax his body.

He woke up from his reverie when he saw Yoongi still sleeping peacefully, covered with his grey sheets.

"Sir, it's 7am you should wake up." he said, not really hoping he could answer right away. "Sir, can't you hear me? No? Okay then.." he asked and answered himself because taking the jar and placing him in front of the master. "This is how you should wake up." Jimin mumbled with a smirk before spilling all the water on Yoongi making him jump with surprise and let out the loudest groan. "FUCK!!"

Yoongi was all wet. The drops of water descended from his hair that stuck on his forehead and his silk pajamas clung to his body. "Are you insane?" he mumbled with a venomous voice and Jimin tensed when he saw his eyes becoming red. His mother always warned him not to get an alpha angry but he didn't care. He wasn't going to lose to him.

"Oh god.." Jinyoung came running after he heard the groan. He stared him in disbelief and quickly took a towel from the bathroom and put it around Yoongi's shivering body.

"Why cover him when he's going to take a bath anyways." Jimin scoffed.

The butler put a finger on his lips to shush him and helped his master enter the bathroom.

"It's just water what the hell." Jimin chuckled.

"No it's.." Jinyoung sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Anyways just go give this list to the chef and this one to the gardener." he handed him two papers and patted his back. "I'll help sir Yoongi today."

????

"Thank you." the chef said. "I need to go to the market so will you turn on the stove for me, the master likes boiled eggs. Also, mix these ingredients and add them to the sauce."

Jimin did as told. He was familiar with the ingredients he showed him, he guessed he was making a Spaghetti alla carbonara, a recipe that he made many times for him and his brother.

He quickly chopped the garlics and added them to the egg yolks and the thickened cream.

He grated some parmesan cheese on them and finished with the smoked pancetta cubes.

He felt at ease at the kitchen was a place where he felt very comfortable. Whenever he feels lonely or stressed he looks for a new recipe and tries it out.

Choosing the best ingredients, cutting them into different shapes and combining them with others to create a good taste, fascinated him.

He used to sit in front of his mother while she was cooking since he was a child, especially when he had a free day.

He learned a lot of skills from her and started helping her when he got older until he became the main cook of the family.

He smiled when he remembered his brother coming to his room one night to tell him a secret. What was the secret?

You cook better than mum.

He felt his heart break because he missed that part of Taehyung. He was always cheerful with a large smile that never left his face but it suddenly faded right after their mother's death.

"I need to find my brother." Jimin mumbled after he finished cooking. He turned off the stove and left everything on the counter before heading to the garden.

The butler told him he could have a break until he finishes his chores.

"Oh you're the new boy." a tall black haired male smiled to him. "I'm Hyungsik, the gardener."

"You're a Beta." Jimin mumbled after recognizing his smell. "Like me."

"Yes I am." Hyungsik nodded. "You can be comfortable with me."

"I see." the younger rubbed his chin. "So what should I do?"

"Well first you'll help me cut these dead weeds, after we'll water those pretty flowers there, you see them?" he asked and Jimin simply nodded.

"Roses." he mumbled quietly. "My favorite."

"Like the master." the gardener said. "He also likes roses very much. What surprises me is that he doesn't seem like the romantic kind, right?" he chuckled. "He never brought a girlfriend or boyfriend home and he never talked about finding his mate but he likes to watch the flowers from his office or his room's window."

Mate..?

Jimin furrowed his eyebrows at this word that sounded unfamiliar to his ears.

What does he mean by finding his mate?

He wondered if it was something he didn't know about werewolves but he remembered that his parents taught him everything so he chased the idea from his mind.

It must be something concerning the alphas.

"So pretty boy, you didn't tell me your name?" Hyungsik asked, wiping the sweat from his forehead with he back of his clean hand.

"Jinyoung didn't tell me the gardener was a flirt." Jimin rolled his eyes.

Hyungsik stared at him confusingly and started laughing. "I didn't even try to flirt with you, you know?"

"Pretty boy.." Jimin repeated what he said before.

"It's just a fact, don't you think?" the gardener smiled. "But if you don't like it then okay I'll change it." he pretended to clear his throat soundly. "Ugly boy, what is your name?"

The blond haired male made an annoyed face and sighed heavily. "Won't tell you." he mumbled before finishing to cut the weeds and heading to fill the watering can with water.

Hyungsik chuckled and followed him. He didn't add a word and just kept staring at the young boy while he was concentrated on his work.

He liked how he was meticulously and gently watering the beautiful roses like they were the most fragile creatures on earth.

He approached his face to the flowers and closed his eyes to smell them.

"No, you really should tell me your name." Hyungsik interrupted his dreamy moment.

"I don't want to." Jimin coldly answered. "Just do your work and forget me."

"How can I.." the black haired male mumbled to himself, his eyes not leaving the younger's face.

"Jimin!" a voice disturbed their work. They turned their heads to see Jinyoung waving.

Jimin got up to see what he wanted.

"Now I know your name." Hyungsik faced him with a smirk. "Jimin, the ugly boy."

The blond groaned from frustration and left him smiling like an idiot.

"What do you want? I still haven't finished my work." Jimin told the butler.

"Let the roses to Hyungsik, you need to apologize."

"Apologize?" Jimin raised an eyebrow. "To who?"

"To the master. For what you did earlier in the morning."

Jimin stared at him in disbelief. "Are you serious? That master of yours doesn't know what joking means?"

"If it was a joke, then it was a very bad one." Jinyoung said. "You're lucky he didn't destroy your pretty face with his claws."

"Ouh so scaryy!" Jimin chuckled. "I'm not gonna apologize."

"You have to if you want to live peacefully in this house."

Jimin thought about it for a moment. His pride was telling him not to apologize to Yoongi bit another part of him screamed that she didn't like any more problems. "Alright. I'll apologize to that master of yours."

????

"Chef! You are called to the dining room!" one of the maids ran to the kitchen.

The cook stared at her confusingly. Since he started working for the leader three years ago he was never summoned by him.

He took off his apron and headed to the dining room.

"You asked for me, sir?" he gently bowed his head to the master.

"Who cooked this?" Yoongi asked, pointing at his pasta.

The chef pursed his lips, regretting to give such a task to a newbie. "I.. I am very sorry, sir.. I shouldn't have let him cook your meal, it was very irresponsible of me, please excuse me."

"Him? Who?"

"Y-your Beta slave sir.. I-I needed to go to the market and I left your dinner to him, p-please I am sorry, sir."

The black haired male rubbed his chin, staring at his plate. "You can go." he signalled him to leave the room with his hand.

The chef simply bowed and left, worrying about the consequences.

"So that rude child got some skills.." Yoongi mumbled and took another bite of the pasta. "Delicious." he licked the sauce on the silver fork. "Very delicious."

His peaceful moment was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Come in." he already knew who it was judging from the strong scent.

He met a thousand people before from different packs, alphas, betas and omegas but he never met someone with the same scent as Jimin and he wondered why.

He kinda guessed something but he feared it would be true.

A blond hair appeared and he rolled his eyes, not appreciating his presence. "What do you want? Wanna spill some sauce on me now?"

Jimin faked a smile and tried so hard not to throw anything at him. "I came to apologize." he said with a confident voice.

"You don't seem sincere." Yoongi rubbed his chin.

"I don't care, I just wanna apologize and then you say that you forgive me and we're done."

"Who said I'm gonna forgive you?" the alpha scoffed. "No one has ever disrespected me like you did. Who do you think you are?"

Jimin frowned, not expecting him to respond this way.

He cleared his throat and raised his head in order not to look weak in front of the alpha. "Well you should get used to changes." he said. "Don't you think I'm gonna treat you like a prince as everyone does."

"Didn't you say you were a slave?" Yoongi chuckled. "A slave should respect his master."

"You're not my master!" Jimin shouted.

Yoongi stared at him with disbelief. He got up from the table and approached him slowly. "Spilling water on my body and now raising your voice at me? I thought better of you, I thought you would be obedient and respectful but seems like they got me a noisy little bastard here."

Jimin felt like punching him on the face. He always hated Alphas. Actually not always but since his mother was murdered by one of them.

After that he promised himself not to approach them or even be nice to them. He couldn't bare their presence.

"You know what? Forget what I said earlier, I don't wanna fuxking apologize to the likes of you! You Alpha asshole!" he shouted before slamming the door.

He ran to the hall, looking for a way to escape that hell but it was hopeless. There were securities everywhere and there was no way he could go unnoticed by the civil guards. They would make him someone's slave anyways.

"I need to find my brother." he mumbled, running from corridor to another until he stopped in front of a giant door.

He remembered what Jinyoung told him the night before.

You must never go there, there are Yoongi's brother's chambers.

He knew he couldn't cross it but his curiosity was stronger than him, plus who cares about the laws?

He opened it slowly, not to make a sound and entered in a different world.

He widened his eyes when he saw the different colors painted on the walls. It was maybe the same house but the atmosphere was very different.

The young master's place was more alive.

Instead of servants calmly doing their work, they were chatting and laughing with each other while cleaning the rooms.

Instead of pianists portraits, colored paintings were hanging on the wall. He couldn't recognize any of them, guessing he painted them himself.

What surprised him the most is that there were music in every place of the house.

In the kitchens, the alleys.. all the workers were doing their job while listening to the music of his choice.

He remembered how Jinyoung told him that Jungkook was the perfect opposite of his older brother.

What he saw right now just proved him right.

Everyone was so busy that they didn't notice a different face between them.

He kept walking until he arrived to a big hall. A tall brown haired male, wearing a black apron covered with paint and holding a brush while humming a song was alone.

He knew he smelled his scent when he quickly turned to face him. "Oh, who are you? I've never seen you before."

He expected him to give him a death glare but he received the softest smile.

"I.. I was just looking around.. I'm from the other part of the house.."

"Oh you work for my brother, right?" Jungkook rubbed his chin. "Must be tough, isn't it?" he chuckled.

Jimin found himself smiling along.

"Yeah I know he's kinda rude.."

Kinda?

"But you'll get used to him." he winked to him. "But since you're here, I shall welcome you to my house!" Jungkook smiled widely. "Would you like some tea or coffee?"

"What, no!" Jimin waved his hands. "I should go anyways, I was just cur-"

"Oh, please!" the tall man made him sit on a comfortable chair. "Taehyung!" he called.

Taehyung?

"You'll see, there is a guy who makes the best coffee ever!"

Like my brother.. Jimin smiled to himself.

"Oh, Taehyung! We have a guest!"

Jimin lifted his head and saw his brother standing in front of him, as surprised as he was.

"W-what do you know each other?" the young alpha stared at them confusingly.

"Taehyung!" Jimin shouted and jumped on his brother. "You biiitch I thought I lost you forever!!" he hugged him tight and the younger was gasping for air.

"Where were you?" the younger asked.

"In the other part of the house."

"Uhm would you please explain this situation.." Jungkook nervously rubbed the back of his neck.

"We're brothers," Jimin told him.

"Oh!" Jungkook widened his eyes. "Two brothers working for two brothers?"
