The Palace was a kingdom carved from blood and built on bones.

Its throne was cold carved with ancient....sat at the very heart of the capital city watched by millions and feared by even more.

And upon it draped in velvet black robes with a predator's stare sat the Alpha King of the East.

Kim Taehyung.

The King without Mercy was a strom in Silk.... The untouchable Alpha!

Kim Taehyung - The Crowned Alpha

Unlike other rulers, Taehyung never rose to power by inheritance.

He took it.

At the age of 17, he overthrew the corrupt council, burned the old Alpha line to ash, and declared himself king. Not with words but with blood.

"You rule through fear" they said. "No" he corrected"I rule through truth and the truth is I am the strongest."

But Taehyung wasn't alone.
He built a council around him not of cowards / advisors but of alphas and betas he trusted with his life.

Far from the Palace...✨

Beneath the high gates of the capital where vendors shouted and carriages rolled a figure in black cloak stepped into the city.

Jeon Jungkook had arrived.

He kept his hood low, his lips were silent. His boots padded over cobbled streets and his wolf always alert murmured softly in his mind.

"They don't know us here." Kuro (his wolf)

"Good." Kook

The capital was loud and crowded But it was perfect
Because no one recognized the rogue Alpha who burned his own packhouse.

No one cared that his blood boiled like an Omega's. They just saw a stranger.....A ghost passing through.

He paid in silver coins, Slept on rooftops & Watched the palace from afar. Every time he closed his eyes his wolf whispered the same name

"Taehyung."

The bond itched under his skin Not fully awakened... but stirring.

Jungkook didn't know why, but something told him his arrival here wasn't just random.

---

In the Palace✨

Taehyung stirred in his throne, fingers twitching.

Yoongi frowned. "You felt that too?"

Taehyung didn't answer. His eyes glazed briefly. Something in the air shifted.

A scent he hadn't smelled in years brushed past his nose a smeell mixed of pine ash & thunder.

"Mate."

It was faint But real.......

His wolf V rumbled deep in his chest. "He's here."

Taehyung rose slowly. "Call the guard & Lock the gates. No one leaves the city."

Namjoon raised a brow. "An enemy?"

Taehyung's gaze turned toward the eastern winds.

"No.... A storm."

---

Back in the Alleyways✨

Jungkook's wolf bristled.
"He's awake now." Kuro

"The King?" Kook

"Your mate." kuro

Jungkook clenched his jaw. He didn't come here for love. He came to survive.....

But now... The scent of something ancient called to his blood Something primal.

Fated.

------------

The Market was chaos at noon.

Drums pounding, traders shouting, nobles barking orders, guards in armor stalking between crowds like lions. But one voice silenced them all.

"Stop! That one's unregistered."

The command came from a palace guard blade half-drawn eyes fixed on the hooded figure walking through the eastern bazaar.

Jeon Jungkook.

He didn't flinch nor he halt. Just turned his head slightly.

"Unregistered?" he muttered voice rough like gravel. "I'm not livestock." ☠️

The crowd began to shift Whispers rose... The Guards stepped forward.

Then one grabbed his shoulder and that's when Kuro let loose a growl.

Jungkook moved in one blink and the guard was on the ground gasping with a broken nose, his blade kicked across the street.

"Don't touch me" he warned his voice cold. His hood fell and the entire market froze.
Because the face under that cloak didn't belong to a street rat.

It belonged to an Alpha... One whose aura made other alphas stagger.

The air changed. Then a sharp voice rose "Enough."

That voice deep & smooth like ice slicing through silk... The crowd parted as He stood there.

Kim Taehyung.

Cloak billowing behind him. Crownless yet more regal than any royal blood.

His amber eyes locked onto Jungkook and time forgot how to move.

Jungkook's wolf growled. Taehyung's beast growled back.

"Mate."

The bond slammed into them.
Invisible strings yanked at their spines. Heat pulsed under their skin. Scents collided with eachother.

"F*ck" Taehyung whispered under his breath utterly disgusted.

"Ewwww! Gross" Jungkook muttered sniffing the air like it offended him. "You smell like politics." *-*)/?

Silence.......

Then Taehyung walked forward calm and slow like approaching a Prey!

Jungkook stood his ground.
"You've entered my territory without registering your blood" Taehyung said smoothly. "That's violation."

"I don't follow rules I didn't write" Jungkook replied crossing his arms like sass queen. 😂)

Taehyung's smile was a threat. "Careful I burn rule breakers alive."

"Try me." (kiss him🤧)

The tension cracked like a thunderstorm between them.
"Mate bond" Kuro warned in Jungkook's mind. "He's strong and Dangerous."

"So am I" Jungkook snapped back. Taehyung circled him like the wolf he is...slow.. His eyes narrowed.

Jungkook turned with him No submission or drop of head to the king. Not even a slight tremble. (that's ma boy😉)

Just rage, strength and something... magnetic.

The guards watched stunned. Two alphas who are Fated Growling instead of kissing. Ready to kill rather than claim.

"Do you know what you've done?" Taehyung murmured.

"I don't care about bonds Or fate" Jungkook hissed."I came here to bring the system down. Your system."

Taehyung's jaw ticked. "You're playing a dangerous game."
Jungkook leaned in whispering near his jaw.

"Then play with me King." (kinky😩)

A fight broke out before anyone could blink. Teeth bared, Punches thrown.

Jungkook ducked under Taehyung's fist, countered with a knee to the ribs. Taehyung grunted then slammed him into a vendor's stall.

Wood cracked, Fruit exploded.
Guards tried to step in. Thats when Yoongi, from the rooftop nearby sipped his tea.

"Let them kill each other. Or kiss. I'm good with either." 😬

The crowd scattered. But neither Alpha relented. Until finally............

Taehyung slammed Jungkook against a pillar panting with lips close. Jungkook snarled, bleeding at the lip but smirking. The bond snapped again✨ pulling.

But still... neither moved.

"This changes nothing" Taehyung growled. "It was never going to" Jungkook snapped.

And just like that, they pulled apart with both having broken knuckles, torn shirts and blood dripping body. 🙇‍♀️

But no claiming.......Not yet.🙂

They walked away from each other.....But fate?

It had just begun stitching the war.😈
