“Someone is coming.”

Seokjin was the one announcing it from the front porch, as you and Taehyung played outside.

It was such a nice day out, not a single cloud in the blue sky, yet the early autumn breeze made it so you weren’t sweating your ass off. Jungkook and Jimin were sparring, both with gloves and boxing equipment, as you and Tae were tossing bean bags to a circle drawn in the sand.

The three wolves outside stopped what they were doing after Seokjin’s warning. You could almost see their ears twitching, but you couldn’t hear a thing.

“There’s a car coming.” Taehyung told you after noticing your confused stance.

“Come inside.” Jin was calling for you.

You followed the alpha’s orders, being followed by Tae and Jimin, as Jungkook stayed outside, just in case the unannounced visitors were a threat. Namjoon was leaving the house as you walked into it, puffed out chest and ready to protect the pack if needed.

It was hot, the way all of them were behaving so protectively. And something told you it was because you were there. Yoongi was in the living room, patting the free spot on the couch next to him so you’d join him.

“Are we in danger?” you asked the man as you took a seat, his arm crossing in front of your body protectively.

“Nah, don’t worry.”

“Okay.”

You hugged Yoongi’s arm, basking in his grapefruit and guaiac wood smell that always relaxed you. A couple minutes later you could finally hear a car approaching and parking on the gravel road outside. You tried looking out the big glass walls, but Jimin and Taehyung were standing next to it, noses pressed to the surface to try and see out.

“It’s Hyejin noona!” Jimin announced and everyone in the living room could relax. “She brought the twins!”

“This should be interesting.” Hoseok, who was standing in the middle of the living room, told Yoongi.

The older man assured you everything was fine and you let go of him when he got up to say hello to the guests visiting the Bangtan pack. You stayed in the living room, watching as the most beautiful woman you had ever seen was brought into the house by a smiling Namjoon and Seokjin. She was being followed by a very –very– strong man.

Jungkook was right behind them, with two wolf pups in his arms. The babies were licking his face and neck as he giggled and cooed. Taehyung and Jimin were next to them in a second, both sporting equally huge grins. You wanted to join them and see the pups, holding back your own cooing noises, but you weren’t sure you were allowed to.

“Yn.” Seokjin softly called to you, noticing you standing there awkwardly as the members hugged and greeted the guests. “Come meet our friends.”

“Hello.”

You bowed politely to the couple, impressed by their beauty. Maybe it really was a wolf thing to be blessed with perfect faces.

“So you’re in town for a week and don’t even think about telling us?” Hyejin was throwing the men a squinted look, finally landing on you. “Now I see why. Hi, little thing.”

“Nice to meet you.” you half bowed again.

“These are Hyejin noona and her mate Wonho.” Jin introduced them. “And this is Yn, she’s staying with us.”

After a quick new set of hellos and hand shakes, arms snaked around your body as a face pressed to your neck.

“Come see the babies.” Jungkook was already pulling you backwards.

You sent Namjoon a look to make sure it was okay, your brain needing the permission from the pack alpha in the presence of new people. He smiled at the action and gave you a small nod.

“Let's talk in the other room.”

Was the last thing the leader told the guest and the older members of his pack, while Jungkook practically dragged you back into the living room. He was never afraid of skinship, and after last night’s sneaky kisses in the bathroom, the younger pack member seemed even more stuck to you.

“Come, dove!” Jimin called you to sit on the floor next to him. “These are Luna and Sol.”

“Are they little werewolves?” you gushed, looking at the puppies.

“Yeah, aren’t they so cute?” Tae had the one called Luna on his lap as she tried to bite his moving fingers.

“Are they born like this?” you were curious.

Sol, the other little wolf baby, jumped down from Jimin’s legs and came closer to investigate you. She sniffed you as you offered her a hand and started jumping, which alerted her sister. Soon you had two little fluffy wolf pups trying to play with you too.

“Depends on the mother. If the pregnant one is in wolf form, they are born like this.” Jimin explained, playfully pulling Sol’s little tail. “After birth, the parents teach them to turn back and forth.”

“That’s really cool.” you smiled, sitting on the floor to properly play with them.

“I want to have my own one day.” Tae picked up Luna after she ran back to him.

He was letting out cooing noises, had the biggest boxy smile on his face, and Luna chirped and let out high pitched barks. It was a very cute and soft scene to watch, but it still made your heart clench. Of course Taehyung wanted to have pups, the others probably did too. You didn’t know why, but it left a bad taste in your mouth to know you wouldn’t be the one to give it to them.

You probably wouldn’t even be around to meet them.

Noticing how your mood soured, Jungkook took your hand in his and brought it to his lips to kiss it. You didn’t know how, but it soothed your heart quite a bit. Especially when Jimin came closer to your other side and kissed your cheek repetitively to make you giggle.

On the other side of the house, in the sitting room, the older members of the pack were catching up with Hyejin and Wonho. The couple were part of another pack that was very close to theirs, who they hadn’t seen in a while.

Namjoon and Hoseok had told them about the situation in Seoul and how the South and the North were divided. How the violence against humans and wolves alike was growing in the big city because of that.

But it was hard to keep a straight face when they could hear your giggles all the way across the room, picturing you playing with the twins, imagining you having theirs. So much so Hyejin got up from the loveseat she shared with Wonho and signaled for Namjoon to follow.

The woman was the alpha of their friendly pack, as her mate was an omega. Namjoon thought maybe she needed to talk to him in private, leader to leader, so he went after her to the outside of the house. Both stayed in the porch area, where they could look into the house and watch you playing Hyejin’s daughters.

The male was worried about what the other alpha was going to think of the fact they had a human living with them, so he started speaking before she could:

“I know what you’re thinking–”

“That the Bangtan pack finally got a nice girl?” she raised an eyebrow with a teasing smile. “I’m happy for you, honestly.”

“Are you not concerned?” Namjoon frowned.

“That she’s human? Well, she could have fooled me, the girls don’t usually get along with them.”

Both looked through the clean glass wall of the house, watching you and the pups running around while chasing Taehyung in wolf form.

“Tell me about her.” Hyejin asked, watching Namjoon for his reactions.

“Well, she’s good. We can trust her. Yn is understanding, loyal–”

“Cute. Nice to look at.” the woman said out loud what he had been thinking. “Good hips.”

Namjoon avoided eye contact with the woman, but his red cheeks were answer enough. Hyejin laughed and poked at his sides.

“Yall are simps for her, aren’t you?”

She had seen the way Jungkook wrapped himself around you the moment they arrived, she could see how Taehyung would nose at your legs as you played with the twins, and the sweet way Jimin watched you. Not to mention the grunts and almost purr sounds the others were making as they heard you all the way across the house.

“Well, I wouldn’t use that word.” yes he would, he absolutely would.

“Are you courting her?” Hyejin asked and the man didn’t answer her for several beats. “Oh my god, Namjoonah! All of you?!”

“I mean, it’s not that simple.” he cringed, scratching the back of his head.

“Yes it is, yes or no?” she pushed.

Namjoon huffed. “Fine, yes!”

“What are you all thinking?!” she gave him a small hit to the chest, puffing out a huff of her own.

“Hey! I know she’s human and the point of courting is finding a mate but–”

Hyejin smacked him again, twice. “Will you get your head out of your ass and forget the human thing? I don’t care about that! But does she even know you are courting her?”

“I mean, I don’t–”

“Of course she doesn’t! If you didn’t sit her down and explain, and I’m sure you didn’t, she won’t know what your gifts and actions mean.” the woman reasoned, and Namjoon knew she had a point. “And she doesn’t have a pack, so you didn’t ask anybody’s permission to court her, did you?”

“Who’s permission are we gonna ask? You said it yourself, she doesn’t have a pack–”

“Men are so dumb, I swear.” she rolled her eyes, pressing the space between her perfectly shaped eyebrows. “Ask her, you idiot. Explain to her what it means, what you’re doing, and ask if she’s okay with it.”

“Okay, okay, you’re right, I know.”

“And be prepared she might reject you.”

Namjoon hadn’t thought about that, actually. Yes, they had been courting you from the moment they arrived at Dalju. Jimin had been giving you flowers, Seokjin had been cooking for you, all seven had gifted you with things that belonged to them, –like Taehyung’s shirt– and Namjoon had even given you his favorite book to read.

And you had been accepting all of them, but the catch was… You didn’t know what you were saying yes to. So after they told you, you might as well reject them for not being completely honest with you; or you could reject them simply by not being interested.

Hyejin and Wonho stayed at the house for a while. Seokjin and Yoongi cooked a very delicious lunch for everyone, as you helped by cleaning up after them and setting the table after making a freshly squeezed orange juice.

Wonho was a little quiet, observing everything while not saying much. You hoped he wasn’t bothered by your presence, or how close you were to the wolves of Bangtan pack. Hyejin was lovely and talkative, making you feel at ease around her. She reminded you of Kimee a little bit, and it made you miss your friend.

But, by far, your favorite thing about their visit was their twin daughters.

You were absolutely smitten by Sol and Luna. Sol was a little spitfire, always biting everyone’s ankles, while Luna was sweet and cuddly. After lunch, and after they had their meal too, you took both of them into the living room with you, while the three younger men cleaned up all the dishes and the older ones talked to Wonho and Hyejin about a ceremony thing happening in a couple of weeks.

Sol curled up on herself, while hiding her little face behind a cushion, and Luna climbed on your legs to nap on your lap. You were positively a cooing mess, petting the two girls and watching over them as they slept.

“That’s a cute thing to see.” Hoseok sat next to you, an arm resting behind you on the back of the couch.

“Aren’t they adorable?” you hushed in an attempt to not wake them.

Hoseok nodded his agreement, but he was more interested in how careful and nurturing you were to the small pups. It really blew his mind how you weren’t a wolf, and had no trace of wolf in you, yet some things you did made you seem like one. He hadn’t forgotten the episode yesterday, when you were obviously affected by Jimin’s pheromones.

When you shouldn’t have been.

Seokjin thought it might be a psychological reaction. That your subconscious wanted to be a part of the pack so bad, you started showing signs of behaving like them. Hoseok wasn’t sure he agreed with that theory, but he did want you to wish to be part of the pack.

“Do you want one?” the man asked you as his head laid on your shoulder. You automatically turned to the side, bearing more of your neck for him.

“Can’t we just keep both?” you spoke quietly, running a hand through Luna’s short fur.

“Alright, you grab one, I’ll take the other and we’ll run.”

Hoseok was kissing your neck as you giggled at his plan. You definitely wouldn’t be able to outrun their parents.

“Not in front of my kids.” Hyejin let out a little groan as she saw the way Hobi was attached to your neck.

You went absolutely red in the face and tried to push him away, but the werewolf was having none of it.

“We’re leaving.” the beautiful woman told you, taking Luna from your lap with care and gentleness, picking up Sol next. “It was great meeting you, Ynie.”

“You too! Come visit more! I can look after the twins if you ever need it.” you offered in a high pitched voice as you tried to move past the embarrassment.

“They would love that. Your boys, I’m not so sure.” she gave Hoseok a pointed look. “I don’t think they can keep their hands off of you for that long.”

You hissed lightly, trying to get Hobi to let you go, but his arms held your waist as his face nuzzled into your neck.

“I’ll walk you out–”

“She knows the way.” he held you tighter.

“Bye, dear. Good luck.”

Hyejin waved as best as she could with the two babies in her arms. You turned around to chastise Hoseok, but he was so handsome and looked so drunk on you that you forgot what you were about to say.

Leaning into you a little harder now that you didn’t have a pup on your lap anymore, Hoseok slowly laid you on the couch, and you pulled him down with you. Your arms automatically wrapped around his neck as his face went into yours.

“She’s right, you know.” he mumbled, barely audibly. “We can’t keep our hand off you.”

“Oh, so you’re my boys now?” you took a deep breath, but it was all but grounding.

“Mhmm. And you’re ours.” he agreed, dragging his nose up and down your neck.

“Oh, am I now?” you were giggling.

“Yeah. We claimed you.”

As if to confirm his words, Hoseok bit your neck. Not strong enough to break skin or leave a mark, but you still squealed in delight.

Hoba, pack meeting. Come to the sitting room. Yoongi called for him.

Kinda busy right now, hyung. Hoseok was soothing the bite spot with his tongue.

Don’t care. Come and bring her.

You heard the man huff as he got up and off of you, pulling you by the hands so you’d stand up too. For a second you thought he might take you to his room, but instead Hoseok brought you to the sitting room, where all other six men were waiting for you.

“Am I in trouble?” you swallowed, hand reaching for your neck as if trying to get rid of Hobi’s traces on you. A pointless action.

“Depends on the point of view.” Jimin giggled, which didn’t tell you much.

“Take a seat, little human.” Namjoon offered you the big plush one seat chair.

“Yes, alpha.”

You didn’t think much of it, but the reactions to your words were priceless. All seven werewolves were groaning and growling; which should be menacing, but made you giggle as you took your seat.

“There’s something we need to talk to you about. Something we should have explained already, but it was only brought to our attention today.” the pack leader was a little sheepish, avoiding your eyes. “Have you heard of courtship?”

“Human courtship?” you were nodding.

It wasn’t a very popular practice nowadays, but you knew what that word meant. Courtship was a slow process of getting to know a person you were interested in, before dating.

“Do werewolves do it too?” you asked in curiosity.

“Yeah, but ours is a little different.” Seokjin was the one answering you. “It involves gift giving, scent marking, acts of service–”

“It’s usually done by an alpha to an omega, with the objective of mating.” Namjoon carried on.

“That’s very interesting. But why are you telling me this?”

If this was their way of telling you they had found omega wolves and were about to start courting them, it would absolutely break your heart.

“We would like to do it to you!” Jungkook chirped happily.

“Well, we have been doing it already.” Yoongi admitted with a small bite to his thumb.

Your brows were furrowed as you heard Namjoon and Seokjin explaining to you how they had been courting you from the moment the three maknaes brought you into their home. All of Jimin’s flowers, Tae’s shirt, all of the meals Seokjin made you just because you craved a certain dish, all of the heavy scenting all seven constantly partook in.

They also told you that you had been accepting of their gifts and actions, unbeknownst to you that you were also accepting their advances in courting you.

“We would have asked permission of your pack alpha.” Seokjin explained. “But since you don’t have one–”

“We should have asked your permission from the start.” Hoseok said. “So we’re doing it now.”

“We want to officially court you.” Taehyung said after you didn’t say anything, a mischievous little smile pulling the corner of his lips.

“All of you? How does that work?” you asked.

“The thing with wolves… The thing with alphas. We’ll compete against each other, and may the best man win.” Namjoon explained, continuing when he noticed you were about to interrupt: “It’s fun for us!”

“At the end of the courting period you may choose one of us.” Jimin’s eyes were sparkling as he sported a side smirk. Clearly he thought he’d be the chosen one.

“For how long?” you wanted to know.

“There isn't a date set, the courting could go on for years or just days. Until you make a decision.” Seokjin was patient with your questions.

Your mind was running a mile a minute. So not only had they been courting you without your knowledge, now they were asking your permission to officially do it. It sounded serious when they explained it, so final. But that wasn't what scared you, only the fact you’d have to choose one of them at the end. A pack of alphas, where six of them would be set aside at the end.

As if reading your mind, Namjoon said:

“Don't worry, the losers won’t be upset. For us it’s just nature.”

“I’m human.”

“We can’t explain it either.” Yoongi chuckled, half amused. “There are few cases of humans and wolves trying to be together, Wonho told us. It doesn't usually work because even if the human part of the werewolf is attracted to the human, the wolf will reject them.”

Scared of the answer, you asked: “What about your wolves?”

“They are all crazy about you.” Jungkook told you with pink cheeks.

“Okay.” you sucked in a quick breath.

“Okay?” Taehyung was hopeful.

“I accept… the courting, if you really want to do it.”

How could you not? It brought you all kinds of butterflies to have the seven of them basically admitting to have feelings for you, enough to want to pursue you that way. It was more than obvious you had feelings for them too, not to mention the physical pull you felt towards them.

“Wait, does that mean I’ll hook up with all of you?” you sounded more excited than what you wanted to let show.

“Not really.” Seokjin chuckled. “We’ll take it slow, to not overwhelm you.”

“Oh… Well, Jungkook already kissed me.” you shrugged. “So, it’s okay. If you want to.”

A new set of growls and grunts filled the space of the sitting room, bringing shivers up and down your spine.

You didn’t know what you had just gotten yourself into, but you’d be damned if you weren’t willing to see it through.
