Destined

The Creation Story

The small party that had insisted on following Baekhyun back to his home in the Light Pack territory, hesitatingly entered the pack house where the omega claimed to have grown up in. The thirteen boys were welcomed by the entrance by Baekhyun's father; The Alpha of the Light Pack. His lips were pulled up into a small smile, but it was obvious that the emotion hadn't reached his eyes. 

"Baekhyun" he gushed, pulling his youngest pup close. Baekhyun willingly allowed himself to be embraced, feeling a lump form in the back of his throat. "I'm so glad to see you.." 

"I am too Appa." The boy admitted, holding back his tears as he gripped his father's coat tighter. "I came almost immediately after I received your letter, I'm so sorry that I wasn't here when the plague happened-" 

"Nonsense!" The Alpha interrupted, gently pushing his youngest child away. "I'm glad that you weren't here, I'm so happy that you were in the castle and away from all of this. The pack has suffered greatly from this plague Baekhyun, our family having given their lives to it. You're the only pup I have left and I am beyond overjoyed that you were safe," The Light Alpha took a moment to look around at his son's friends, happy to see them so close after so little time had past. "I'm glad that you all were safe." 

"And we will remain safe throughout our stay here, right?" Daehyun enquired, raising his hand like a student would question a teacher. Chanyeol growled at his elder brother, his hands forming fists by his sides as he attempted to control himself against the future king. 

"I think my brother meant something different" Chanyeol rushed to explain to the nervous looking Alpha, Baekhyun's father rising a brow in his direction. Chanyeol took a breath and stepped forward, a small smile on his lips as his eyes caught Baekhyun's. "we would like to know if anyone else in your village is effected by the plague because we would be more than happy to bring them back to the capital for treatment!" 

Baekhyun casually sent a glance in his father's direction, surprised to see his old man so deep in thought. A small smile cracked onto the Alpha's lips, his chest vibrating as he chuckled quietly to himself. "Although I thank you for your trouble Prince Chanyeol, I'm sad to say but your offer has been made too late. The plague was upon us before anyone could even comprehend it, people were getting sick all over the village and everyone who wasn't took time to look after them or the pups. We didn't have a chance to write letters informing of our neighbours of the threat because almost as soon as it appeared, it was gone again." 

"I'm so sorry for your loss Mr Byun" Kyungsoo and Luhan choired together, bowing respectfully towards the elder wolf. Baekhyun's father nodded his head and in turn bowed back to the young omegas. "when Baekhyun told us of the news, we insisted that we come along. We wanted to help in whatever way we could!" 

"Well in that case would you like to help out the omegas in the nursey? There are a couple orphaned pups that haven't been able to enjoy themselves after the sickness spread, they've been quite down in the dumps lately and I feel as though you lot would make their day." The Alpha explained ushering a young woman forward who bowed in greeting. "This is Mina, she'll take you to the nursey. If it's alright with you guys I might ask some aid of the Alphas." 

"That won't be a problem Mr Byun!" Tao giggled, already linking his arm through Mina's who seemed beyond shocked with the action. "Will Baekhyun be joining us?" 

"Am I Appa?" the boy wondered, gazing up into his father's eyes in curiosity. He had always been apart of the village meetings, often unafraid to voice his own opinion when his village was on the line. 

"You're more than welcome to-" 

"Absolutely not!" Daehyun interrupted, separating the grieving family members from each other. "No omega of mine would ever be able to sit in on pack meetings, have you all gone crazy?!"
