~Away From You~ Jookyun

Chapter 4: Jooheon

Minhyuk then fixed my clothing while scolding me and telling me to behave in front of the head alpha or else I will be badly punished.

"You've got to stop this Changkyun. You can't act like this towards him, he's your mate for crying out loud and he's trying his best to reach out to you."

"I don't want him to reach out to me." I said already tired.

"You are his mate. You need him too. Your wolf needs him."

"My wolf is an idiot."

Then I was harshly turned around to face a serious Minhyuk who looked like he was already fed up with my shit. He wasn't going to take no as answer this time and that made me panic inside.

"Changkyun stop this! You can't run away from this so please give him a chance, I swear he's a great person if you really get to know him." Minhyuk said with his blonde eyebrows furrowed. He was really tired of my attitude and it made me feel bad.

I bit my lip when I avoided his eyes. I didn't want to keep arguing with him so I stayed quiet and let him drag me around to the drawer to splash some soft fruity perfume on me.

"I know is hard for you to accept him after everything that happened to your pack Changkyun... but trust us... we are good people."

"Are you really?"

"Yes, soon you will see that."

The sweet soothing smell of wet pine trees was all I could focus on when I was sitting in the car with Minhyuk who was driving me to the location Jooheon picked out to have our "walk."

The gray clouds dispersed from each other revealing a beautiful open blue sky. Birds took flight across the sky making me smile at the beauty of it.

I remember lying down on the grass with my mom to watch how the clouds took the form of animals and objects such as cars. It was a nice memory that I desperately held on to because I didn't want to forget it.

"We are almost there." Minhyuk said when he drove over a hill to reach wooden gates that had a huge sign that said "Daegu's Zoo Park"

"The Zoo?" I heard myself ask out loud grabbing Minhyuk's attention.

"Yeah, is very amazing! So many animals and I heard the zoo brought in some new animals!"

.... Shit... I do like animals and always wanted to visit a Zoo...

Minhyuk then parked the car close to the entrance. We quickly unbuckled ourselves and step out of the car to walk to the park that seemed to be filled with tourists from other countries. Many were excited and already ready to start their adventure across the park. Minhyuk took my hand and guided me towards a small rustic coffee shop that favored and embraced the countryside.

"Slow down," I said not pressuring my healing leg to walk faster "where are you taking me?"

"Jooheon is here." That was all he said before he dragged me to the coffee shop. When we entered the coffee shop I was greeted with the sweet smell of freshly brewed coffee and fresh-baked cookies. Sugary sweets were displayed making my mouth water at the delicious treats that looked so cute.

I quickly pulled my hand from Minhyuk's tight grip that loosened when he focused on finding someone with his eyes. He barely noticed when I slipped out from his hand to take a long look at the many varieties of sweets and baked goodies.
