As the sky begins to lighten, casting a soft glow over the deserted beach, Taehyung guided their bike along the winding coastal road, Jungkook nestled snugly against his back.

Jungkook, sleepy and content, clung to Taehyung's waist, his head resting against his alpha's broad back. Soft snores escaped his lips occasionally, a testament to the tranquility of the night spent by the sea.

Taehyung couldn't help but smile at the sight of his adorable omega, so small and delicate in his embrace. Gently, he adjusted their position, ensuring Jungkook was comfortable and secure against him.

"Almost home, Pup," Taehyung murmured, his voice a soothing whisper in the quiet of the night. "Just a little while longer."

Jungkook stirred at the sound of Taehyung's voice, nuzzling closer to him with a contented sigh. "Mmm, 'm sleepy," he mumbled, his words muffled against Taehyung's back.

Taehyung chuckled softly, the warmth of Jungkook's breath against his skin sending shivers down his spine. "I know, sweetheart," he replied, his heart swelling with affection. "We'll be home soon, and then you can rest."

As Jungkook and Taehyung tiptoed through the front door, the early morning light filtering through the windows, they exchanged nervous glances, their hearts racing with the anticipation of being discovered.

Somin, their sweet sister-in-law, greeted them in the hallway with a knowing smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "Well, well, what do we have here?" she teased, her voice barely above a whisper.

Jungkook's cheeks flushed crimson as Somin's gaze fell upon the  marks adorning his neck, evidence of their romantic escapade on the beach. "Um, Noona," he stammered, his voice barely audible, "please don't tell anyone..."

Taehyung's hand found Jungkook's, offering silent reassurance as they awaited Somin's response.

Somin's smile softened, her expression filled with understanding. "Your secret's safe with me" she promised, her tone gentle. 

Relief washed over Jungkook and Taehyung as they shared a grateful smile with Somin, thankful for her discretion and understanding.

"But next time, maybe try a better hiding spot for those love bites." Somin said passing a mischievous wink which made Jungkook aware about his neck's condition and he hide behind Taehyung's broad back with crimson red cheeks. 

 They made their way to their room, hand in hand, after Somin left them alone.

As Jungkook stirred from his slumber at 7 a.m., his eyes fluttered open to the sight of Taehyung's handsome face, still lost in peaceful slumber. A fond smile tugged at Jungkook's lips as he remembered their romantic beach date from the night before. 

He's so cute!

Careful not to disturb his sleeping husband, Jungkook leaned in and planted a shy, discreet peck on Taehyung's cheek. The warmth of their connection enveloped him as he quietly slipped out of bed, his heart fluttering with affection.

Entering the bathroom to freshen up, Jungkook caught his reflection in the mirror and noticed the faint marks adorning his neck from Taehyung's affectionate kisses. A blush crept up his cheeks as memories of their passionate night flooded his mind.

 " They look like temporary mark. I wanna mark hyungie too." thought Jungkook 

Determined to reciprocate the gesture, Jungkook quickly brushed his teeth before returning to the bedroom, where Taehyung still slept soundly on his back.
