Use Me Like A Drug (omegaverse bl)-Chapter 63: ... I decide your fate

Jaehyun’s POV

I watch in satisfaction as smoke rises from the hole I just shot into the wooden chair with my father’s old hunting rifle.

I chose to ignore the look of pure rage on his face as I bring the rim of the gun up to my mouth and blow away the smoke with a smug look on my face.

Act now, regret later has always been my motto and I don’t plan on changing anytime soon.

I cock the gun again and point it to the head of one of the inner circle members who’s always gotten on my nerves since I was a kid, the one who always wears the disrespectful half smile when my mother speaks.

His mouth falls open and tempted to see just how ugly and respectful he would look with a bullet hole to the head, I place my finger on the trigger, letting it rest lightly.

Mother will play her role as pack luna, but he wouldn’t shed a tear for him.

"Jaehyun" father’s warning growl gets to me from where he is seated on the high seat, calm, low as always but brimming with contained fury.

I look at him briefly and turn the gun to the man next to the disrespectful motherfucker with a wide smile on my face.

"L-lord Hwang" the man squeaks and I burst into laughter; laughing the exact same way their precious and pure Sehwa had laughed the day she toyed with me and mine.

Why do they get to fuck with me and get scared when I play their game right back at them?

"Why?" I ask and press the gun into his temple, "Why is it so easy for you to decide my fate and you beg for me not to decide yours?" I say and press the rim deeper into his skin, hard enough to leave a dent.

"Save me..." the man whimpers like the wussy he is, and I pull the gun away from his head to the next member on seat, "Hurry and tell me who I’m ending first, my patience is wearing out" I say with a sigh.

"Jaehyun, that’s enough" father says with finality in his leveled voice.

My father, my alpha and my superior.

I know he gave me the chance to express myself freely and I have gotten to the zenith of my free reign, still I drag the gun on the table till I am standing in front of another member who had been glaring at me.

My already agitated alpha growls at the blatant lack of respect, angry at the man who seems to be daring us and instead of standing down, he gets up to his feet.

"Forgive me, young master Hwang but you are at the age when you must take a wife" he says confidently and I place the gun rim to the table, my hand resting on the trigger as I do.

I will make him my scapegoat if he doesn’t mind the line he’s toeing so recklessly, I am an alpha whose omega is in heat and can’t do anything about it. I am a timebomb waiting to go off.

"Lord Hwang will step down soon and as it is with tradition, the next head alpha must have a luna to be mother and lady to the pack" he continues, his deep voice sounds cold and his speech well-rehearsed.

He must have known I would demand answers and had practiced ahead of time.

Ah they know me so well...the boy who isn’t a troublemaker but will turn into a wrecking ball if need be.

"The throne you are about to take calls for a luna, and what other choice is there but Yoon Sehwa" he says and I let out a deep menacing growl, triggered by the mention of that woman’s name.

"You are starting to piss me off elder Ki" I say and his eyes darkens as he squares his shoulder, holding his head up high.

"Young Lord, I said it in your absence, and I will say it again; Sehwa grew in front of us, and we all watched your puppy love blossom until..." he says and trails off for the first time, the blank space in his words irritates me.

"Until what?" I ask with the gun in my hand lifted and ready to take the first life of the night, I am no longer joking around as my eyes go red with my alpha’s fury.

"If I have to call your name again, son" father says and gets to his feet, he knows that I have switched and I again, instead of putting it down, I struggle with the gun in my hand.

My stance is firm and accurate, but my entire body is vibrating with unseen forces that are urging me to pull the trigger...to show them what Sehwa did to me.

"Jaeyun-ah, put the gun down" Jisung hyung says and I do as they ask slowly but not without shooting right above the man’s head first and startling the whole room.

"Everything you and your merry band of fuckers planned with that woman better be called off before nighttime or else" I hiss at him and make eye contact with every one of them in the room while father seethes.

He is glaring at me with his hands placed on the table, I disrespected him in front of his council, and I know it’s wrong.

"Hold this" I say and pass the rifle to Taeho who has been standing as quietly and as still as a shadow behind me, I don’t have to look at him to know that he looks horrified by my action.

I walk up to my father, holding his eyes as I do.

He doesn’t know about Yujun and I yet, I can’t tell him here, but I know he will understand, my father is a man who loves boundlessly...I have seen him treat my mother like a god all through my life.

I know he will understand me better than anyone will.

My father, my king and my mentor.

I go on my knees in front of him and bow my head with my palms pressed to the floor and I hear his sigh.

"Forgive my behavior" I start and he says quiet, a sign to keep on talking and to show the reason I behaved the way I did.

"My Lord, I reject the proposal of the council to marry Sehwa" I say and he nods, "I accept, but what will you present to show us you are ready for the throne?" father asks and I lift my head.

We both don’t care about tradition; we both don’t care about rules or what others want to see...but we have to play the part in order to maintain peace and maintain stability.

"I will introduce my omega in due time, Lord" I say to him and hear a ripple of conversation break out from the men on seat. They sound like they are protesting but none of them has the guts to say it out loud.

"Lies, you have no mark of an omega on you, and we refuse to let that airhead Choi Yunah child be our Luna" elder ki raises his voice, saying boldly what everyone else are too afraid to say out loud.

I kill the growl starting to rumble in my chest, remembering I am in a position of honor and reverence for my father, the head of the pack.

In my head, I get up to my feet and blast a single satisfactory bullet into his head but in reality, my father’s deep commanding growl shuts them all up at once.

"I am speaking with my son, and I do not welcome opinions" he says and elder Ki gives a terse nod before taking his seat, bubbling with his Sehwa agenda.

"Call everything off, my son will not be getting married to that girl if says he doesn’t want to" Father says and clears his throat before turning to look at the clock.

It’s early hours and he yawns, "we shall continue this meeting another day, dismissed" he says and gets up to leave first while a deep silence falls over us.

Once the door clicks shut, I get up on my feet, straighten my back and walk out without bowing or saying a word to the elders frozen in their seats. Taeho walks closely behind me carrying the gun.

I keep walking, going back to the building where I left Yujun with my mom at with quick steps, I need to see him and know if he needs me yet. If it’s okay to finally hold him in my arms.

My alpha is significantly calmer and eager to be in the same space as the omega we love.

As I go closer, Taeho grabs my arm to stop me and I look at him, "What?" I ask, "is he the one...the omega you are going to choose?" he asks and I smile slightly.

"Fucking hell, you are really stupid Jaehyun" he says and drops my arm, looking conflicted. "He’s a Choi, the disgusting enemy that hurt..."

"I will stop you right there Taeho-ya, your loyalty should be with me" I say gently, reminding him that the trio we once vied to be no longer exists, "My loyalty is yours, I die by your side and I live by your side, but-"

His next words are silenced by the door opening and my mom stepping out.

"Your omega needs you" he says and I give Taeho one last glance before rushing over to obey the call of the one I’ve chosen to submit to, anyone who is loyal to me will be loyal to him as well.
