After Jia told him to read the books that Doctor Lee has researched thirty years ago; now he knew what are them exactly and what he gonna do when they facing their heat including gloat. The researchers knew the gloat's existence has started in century and they've been existed before the werewolves. They were another shift-shifting creature who they believed as lynx. A type of wildcat, has a prominent role in North American mythology. It is considered an elusive and mysterious creature and known in some Native American traditions as a 'keeper of secrets'. They have supernatural eyesight, capable of seeing even through solid objects. They were summoned by the sacred demon slayer who also summoned the werewolves. Gloats has been summoned with the other two creatures, Lykoi cats and bobcats. They believed that the lynx constellation are darkness, represented their renowned eyesight and the thrill of hunting for stalking and descrying new wonders in nature. Gloats are also the special hunters for their great capability of hunting preys. Gloat, Lyki and Bobcats are friendly species. They helped each other especially in hunting but the friendships between those creatures has changed drastically after the Cacteriours appeared in their circle. The cacteriours or known as the coyotes shape-shifting creature, the relatives of werewolves and the liar, the beast of manipulation. They were created by the old scientist Doctor Gorillford but unfortunately he has been killed by his own creation in early century after keeping them locked in the basement for so long. Cacteriours lurking every night to hunt people. Gloats are their favorite target especially when gloats' breeding season and when they're giving birth. Cacteriours has always snatching the kittens away until the mother cannot find them, send them to their devastation. Hyeop flipped the pages of the ancient book and found the beginning of werewolves, and how they killed all the population of gloats. It began many centuries ago after the Cacterious manifestation. A group of sorcerers enslaved a powerful demon. After period of days, they removed the demon's spirit and bound it to a triskelion box. After the ritual, the sorcerers chose the most honoured and respected hunter of their village, to which the power of the triskelion was bestowed upon him. But the result of the hunter harnessing the power of the triskelion box turned the hunter into the first werewolf, who then proceeded to destroy the sorcerers' village in a vicious, uncontrollable rampage. "Gloats had been killed by werewolves and cacterious, lyki and bobcats," said Jia while facing the wall who have the pictures of patients and the two mythical creatures which are the gloat and werewolves. "Thirty years ago, the doctor did something to her patients in the ward. Those creatures does not exist after all but for her; she wanted them to be existed and so she did something that will infect the patients." Hyeop looked up from the book to the pictures that stick on the wall. He stood up while staring at the pictures. "To tell you the truth. Thirty years ago, they began existing again but most of the infected patients which have the genetics of gloats had been killed by the patients who have the genetics of werewolves." He can see the faces of the patients. Most of them have dark circle around their eyes and very thin like they haven't eat in many days. At the side of their photos was their new form as gloat and lycanthrope. Lycanthrope, of course a werewolf that obviously, bears many similarities to the creature of it's namesake, the wolf. "Patients who has the werewolves genetics are the most powerful that succeeded in the operations and... unfortunately has been uncontrollable rage especially when their transformation." Jia handed him the note that one of the nurse who helped doctor Lee wrote before their operations began. Research #1 A werewolf's bite is indeed very powerful, easily capable of breaking the thickest bones of any animal of any size comparable to cattle and below. The tooth pattern of the werewolf is similar to that of a wolf, with four very large canines, two on the upper jaw and two on the lower, with four incisors in between each. Behind them are the premolars which are used to tear flesh, and finally, the molars at the very back for chewing. "Werewolves are very dangerous creatures so I must suggest that we need to be careful." "How to kill them then?" "We can't kill them but we can shoo them away by using the unfamiliar smell of omega," Jia said. "Jiwook is a half werewolf and he is an omega." Hyeop eyes widen and glanced at Jiwook who currently watching Junhyuk who still shivering from the cold. His eyeing his twin like he knew it already. "Speaking of omega," Jiwook suddenly said. "how about we talk about gloats' and werewolves' rut?" -- Alpha is the leader of a pack of werewolves. It is the strongest, most powerful and by far the most lethal variety of werewolf. They possess great power and wisdom. Alpha male and female; these two leaders are dominant over all the other wolves in the pack. The alpha male and female are the only wolves that breed and produce pups in the pack, and they also get to eat first at kills. "How about omega? What are they?" Junhyuk asked after Jiwook began talking about alphas. "Betas are the Alphas' subordinates, like lieutenants; and the omega is the lowest-ranking wolf, the pack's punching bag, who is submissive to everyone else and whose job is to take their abuse, and also to cajole the pack into play. Pathetic right?" Junhyuk paled up upon hearing that and snuggled close to his twin who has his face still emotionless but they can see the annoyance in his eyes. "So... what about omega's heat then? How to deal with it?" asked Hyeop. "Why? Is your brother an omega? I assume yes because I can smell the strong scent of alpha from him and he have a mate already, right?" Hyeop jolted when Junhyuk suddenly cried. He embraced his twin again while rubbing his back. "You know... heat is the time when the omega is most fertile and ready to mate, or just hide away until the heat is over. If they have an Alpha mate, they will never leave their side unless they need to get their omega food or water... same as the gloat they mated," Jiwook said and eyes casted at Hyeop who only frowned. "Gloat and omega are the same so... werewolves can mate the gloat but can't breed them but it depends on the gloats' breeding season." Hyeop frowned even more. If he is a gloat then Jeongsun can breed him? Thinking that made him want to puke but his matter right now is his twin. What if that guy impregnate his twin? What do he'll do? "I remind you that omega and gloat can be impregnated by alphas and sometimes betas for the omega only. Also, it's kind of more like dog sex or wolf sex with knotting and stuff." Hyeop cringed, he don't know but this kind of thing disgust him. He stopped when he remembered about the knot. Gloats are cat and they have knot too?
"Heats, this is a time when their sexual arousal is through the roof and their scent glands are most potent -- " "Gloat also have knots?" Hyeop asked. "Gloat have knots too, they can knot to their chosen mate and that cannot never be cut." Jiwook was about to add more when a knock interrupted them. They all looked at the door but not Junhyuk who currently being cuddly to his twin. Jiwook stood up while Jia watched his nephew sniffing in the air. Suddenly, Jiwook threw some notebook on Hyeop who landed on his lap. "Read that," he mouthed before heading towards the door. He reached over the knob and just when he folded his hand around on it, Junhyuk began nesting the whole room. Jia cursed after smelling it while Hyeop quickly covered his nose, Jiwook froze after smelling Junhyuk's scent. His eyes moved at Junhyuk who was now flashing red while leaning close to Hyeop who literally trying his best not to provoke by the sweet smell. If he provoked, then his thirst will kick in too and when that happens, everything what happened two weeks ago could repeat. That was Jia knew. She ran to Hyeop and pulled him away from Junhyuk. The young gloat seems getting dizzy as well as the young omega. The knock turned into a loud bang. "Shit! They smelled it!" cursed Jiwook and pulled his gun from his belt and pointed it at the door. The door harshly banged rapidly until a large wolf claws pierced through the metal door and reached over Jiwook. The young officer stepped back and fired the gun at the hand but it only went out from its skin. The claws slashed through the door until it created a large hole. Two huge glowing blue eyes, an extended snout, and triangular ears; similar head to a wolf, peeped at them through the hole it created. Jiwook shivered at the sight of the completely transformed werewolf. He have brown fur and he concluded that this creature has the size more than a human. "Go to the back door, now!" Jiwook shouted while running to Junhyuk and grabbed his arm. They all ran to the back door that directed to the narrow alley. It was still raining, but the moon was already up. They just ran until they reached the back town that leads to the forest. Jia cursed, "We need to go back to the town -- " They screamed when something pulled Jia from the darkness. Jiwook passed Junhyuk to Hyeop who were still dizzy from the smell. He tried to get into his right mind and aware, looking at Jiwook. "Run now! Go far away from this town!" he screamed and Hyeop doesn't know what to do, and pulled his twin with him into the dark forest. *** The rain has finally stopped but they were still running and Junhyuk was already in his heat. This overwhelming situation made Hyeop weak, but he still forced himself to move on. They sprinted past the meadow, his heart painfully hammering in his chest as the thirst starting to burn his throat. His legs burned from exertion yet he did not stop to rest. The closer he got to the clearing, the more anxious he became as he was unable spotted a cave. Hyeop don't know where this part of the forest but as he can see despite his hazy vision, he can see a cave in the middle of the wide field of meadows. He stopped running after reaching the cave. Junhyuk finally collapsed behind him while panting hard and clenching his chest. Hyeop turned around to check on his twin but even him can't stand anymore and fell beside his twin. Before his vision faded away, he could see figures approaching them. Hyeop groaned loudly and forced himself to still conscious. He can feel someone licked his face that made him froze. He looked up and saw a bipedal werewolf . He was snarling at him while his glowing silver eyes glaring at him. This bipedal werewolf is half bipedal and half human, as much of the muscles structure is similar to human but the shoulder structure is slightly different as this creature is capable of semi-quadrapedal movement. It have grey thick furs that gleaming under the moonlight that just showed up after the rain. He instinctively got up in fear but the werewolf held him still, pinning his whole front on the muddy ground made him winced. His eyes moved to his twin when he noticed something just carried him up. He looked up and see the other werewolf with blue eyes that he believes a lycanthrope. He snarled at him before turning his back away, walking with his own two legs, tails slightly wagging. Hyeop struggled the werewolf that holding him suddenly brought him up over his shoulder. The beast brought him inside the cabin where he can see his twin being hugged by the lycanthrope and licking his face. He couldn't believe that everything happening right now. In that moment, Hyeop felt his back hit the hard rock and before he knew it, he was embraced by the bipedal werewolf, feeling his warm tongue licking his face and neck, and even his trembling hands. Hyeop flinched when he felt the creature nibbling his bite mark along with his soft licks. Somehow, Hyeop felt warm and comfortable, he can't help but snuggle close to the wolf beside him. He can feel the creature tightened his arms around him while still licking him dry. ___ Hyeop woke up abruptly, seating only to see himself inside of the cave with animal thick furs and skin under him. He removed his glasses and cleaned it before wearing it back, standing up and crawled towards the opening. His eyes widen when he saw his twin with that guy Hyunsung and the others. They were all wearing new fresh clothes except him who had the same clothes yesterday; covered in mud. Hyeop smelled himself. He smiled after smelling the scent of dirt on himself. This smell felt comforting for his own comfort. He removed his jacket and hugged it while still smiling, didn't even realized that he was already purring like a real cat. Already forgot what he was supposed to do. "As expected to the gloat like you," a deep voice said behind him and Hyeop almost scream, looking behind him and saw Fin, smiling while watching him. "you like the smell of mud huh, but I do not like it when you're hugging Jeongsun's jacket while rubbing your face on that stinky fabric." Hyeop froze and looked at the jacket before throwing it away, face already burning in embarrassment. 'What am I doing?' "I did not know that gloat and werewolves can be mate, well, I do not blame it. I cannot be your mate because I am an omega and you already claimed by Jeongsun. Jihae have no chance in claiming you either," said Fin and sighed. "I already have a mate though and that is Jihae. But... I like you." Hyeop remained quiet, looking down at his hands. Fin smiled and moved on to the younger to kiss his forehead. "By the way, your mate went out for a hunt with my mate and Junghwan." "Oh, glad you are awake." Both looked up and saw Minhee in the wide entrance. "I will tell you this since Jeongsun not permitting you to go outside in this cave," Minhee paused, staring at the jacket. His smiled widen, walking and get the jacket; he then wrapped it over Hyeop's shoulder. Fin and Minhee could not help but coo at the younger when he noticed him purring again at the smell while pulling the jacket close to his face. "Your lynx -- gloat instinct bring you away from society, this area is far beyond the town and city. This area is very isolated but yet this place is great. So, we will make new dens around here. We are going to stay here for good and why if you ask, because we are not part of the society." Minhee paused again, watching Hyeop staring at his own hands now. He looked like he just lost in the raffle. "We are wild folklore beast that need to stay in the forest. Do you understand?" Hyeop finally looked at them before nodding. He was still tired from all the running he did last night -- wait, Hyeop froze once again, removing the jacket before he found himself crawling into their bed. "Finie!" Hyeop heard Jihae's faint voice from outside. Fin smiled and ran outside while Minhee was following behind but not glancing Hyeop before walking away. Hyeop was still in his deep thoughts while still hugging the jacket. He remembered being chased by them and Jia with his nephew Jiwook helped them, told them everything about gloats and werewolves then the wards, patients. Then bipedal and lycanthrope chased them. Was that all real? But how? He remembered what Jia told him and the photos. They began existing after doctor Lee created them. Then... those maniacs was part of that experiment? Even them? But that happened thirty years ago and based of those maniacs features, they seemed don't age at all. They still like their age, still looking like college students. They're supposed to be in their senior age now but... maybe they don't age at all like vampires do. He shifted his position until he felt something inside his pocket. He pulled it out and saw the folded picture. He unfolded it and saw all the patients of the ward. From below the pictures, a date was written on it and Hyeop almost couldn't believe when he read the date. It did not occur thirty years ago, the horrible experiment was happened back in century. He stared at the photo until he noticed those maniacs was in the picture too. But the most part that caught his attention is the doctor in the front who he believes that doctor Lee. Why do she looked like their mother, Lee Nayoung? Hyeop noticed someone was about to get inside and he quickly hid the picture inside his pocket. So then, these monsters was alive since centuries? He closed his eyes when he felt Jeongsun crawled above him from behind and planted a soft kiss on his temple. "How's your feeling, kitten?" Jeongsun asked softly while brushing his hair and smelled it. Hyeop gulped, the thirst was gone. "Fine... I guess," he said with dry voice. Jeongsun chuckled and kissed his temple again. "Aren't you hungry?" Hyeop shook his head. After everything happened last night, he don't think he have any appetite to eat. He want to sleep again. "I won't punish you after what you did -- " "Isn't this your punishment to me? To us?" Hyeop said timidly before seating up, glaring at Jeongsun. "Taking our freedom away? Taking us away from the society?! What do you want from us?! Why can't -- " Before Hyeop can even finish his words, a hard slap landed across his face and before he could recover from his shock, he was pinned back in the bed with Jeongsun straddling him. "Gloats are really the pain in the ass. To tell you this, Junhyuk is already falling to Hyunsung and I'm so jealous because they can be happy any time soon," his breaths are become raw while glaring at him. Hyeop stared at him in shock. Was... Jeongsun like Junhyuk all along? Was he lying when he said that he love him? But, for some reason Hyeop don't feel hurt or anything. Hyeop is Hyeop after all. He do not know how to love or either doesn't want to love anyone other than his twin and his friends. If he love his twin, then he must do something to separate his twin from them. Hyeop nodded after awhile, just go with the flow. He was about to reply like it was nothing when Jeongsun continued. "I envy them because they can be happy while we aren't? Why can't you just love me back?! Being mated with you is not enough! It won't satisfy me! I need you! I need you to love me! Just ONLY me!"
