JUNGKOOK POV

When Jimin said they were going to the packhouse for the first time since Jimin's return, he wanted to say no.

He came very close to begging Jungkook to let him stay home in their house, where he could hide from the world.

But Jungmin was so excited and Jungkook kept smiling at him and he didn't want to disappoint them.

So he showered and dressed and tried to look his best even though he felt like he was headed for his execution.

The pack must hate him, now that they knew the truth.

All the time he'd been there, he'd been lying to them.

Lying about who he was, about where he came from, about who he and Jungmin belonged to.

He'd put their pack at risk and forced Jungmin to risk his life to save them.

However things had been between them before, they were irrevocably changed by all the terrible things he'd done.

"Ready?" Jungkook asked, helping Jungmin put his coat on.

"Sure." Jimin said lightly, trying to hide his fears.

"Then let's go."

Jungmin ran on ahead of them and they had to hurry to catch up, Jungkook taking the cub's hand as they trudged along the forest path.

The closer they got to the packhouse, the more nervous Jimin felt Even though he'd been home for days, he was not ready for this.

They went in through the front door instead of the back door, which was the first inkling that something wasn't quite right.

Maybe the pack didn't want them acting like they were part of the family anymore?

Jimin had certainly proved that he wasn't.

"I think everyone is in the living room." Jungkook said as they hung their coats up in the quiet hallway.

He gestured for Jimin to lead the way but Jungmin hurried on ahead eager to play with his friends.

The closer Jimin got to the living room, the more his stomach churned with nervousness.

There was no getting away from the pack now.

He was Jungkook's mate, his true mate for life. He just had to get this over with.

He pushed open the door to follow Jungmin, Jungkook right behind him and slammed to a stop.

"Welcome home Jimin!"

He stared into the room in shock, the whole pack looking back at him.

Taking a step back, he walked into Jungkook, who wrapped an arm around his waist to steady him.

"What's going on?" he asked the alpha, taking in the banner and balloons and all the people smiling at them.

"It's part welcome-home party, part baby shower," Jin said, rushing over.

"I knew a surprise party was a bad idea,You look terrified."

He tugged Jimin into a hug, squeezing him tightly. "We're so glad to have you back, safe and sound And we're excited for you and Kook to have a family of your own."

Jimin glanced over his shoulder at Jungkook but the alpha looked as surprised by the party as he did.

"Come on." Jin coaxed.

"Come inside, there's food and cake and presents."

He let himself be guided over to a couch, sitting down and looking around again in disbelief.
