Jimin woke up early as usual. He could go to bed very late and get up early anyway.
Everyone was still sleeping except the cooks who were preparing breakfast for the master.
"Good morning chef."
"Good morning Jimin." the man smiled to him. "Hungry?"
"Yes, I'm very hungry to be honest, I didn't have dinner yesterday."
"Well do you want me to prepare an omelet for you?"
"Yes, please." the blond smiled and sat on his chair. "You seem like the only kind person on this house."
"Oh, not at all Jimin!" the chef chuckled. "There are nicer people than me."
"Like who?"
"First of all, the gardener Hyungsik, have you met him yet?"
Jimin nodded.
"A perfect gentleman." the cook said. "He always helps everyone inside the house. He has been working for the Min family since he was a teenager and look at him now, a very handsome twenty-six years old man."
"And a flirt." Jimin rolled his eyes.
"He's a smooth talker isn't he?" the man laughed. "But I can assure you, he is the man you will like the most in this house and after him the master."
Jimin nearly choked on his orange juice. "The master? You mean Yoongi?" he scoffed. "I hope you're kidding."
"Not at all, boy." the chef sat in front of him. "It's true that he seems cold and reserved but he's a very kind man, also very brave. I respect him a lot."
"I see." Jimin just nodded his head, not believing half of what he said. "That's why he signed a paper to accept making us their slaves."
The chef sighed. "Jimin, you should know that our master didn't really have a choice. The one who came up with this law is the leader of the Kang pack, the most powerful alpha family. He couldn't refuse it, not him and not any other alpha leader. Plus, he is indebted to that family for some personal reasons."
"How do you know all this?" the younger asked confusingly.
"I worked at this house for almost 20 years. I was there when Yoongi's father was the leader, before his death."
"How did he die?"
"He was murdered." he sighed. "Savagely murdered. He was killed by a woman.. a Beta.." the man added, afraid of Jimin's reaction.
"Oh.. but why was he murdered?"
The chef shook his head. "Only the master knows. He won't tell anyone all the truth about his father's death."
Jimin just nodded, ignoring what to say exactly at this kind of situation.
"What I'm trying to say Jimin is that you will certainly feel uncomfortable and different for the moment but I assure you that you will quickly get used to the life in this house." the grey haired man smiled. "Believe me."
"Alright." Jimin smiled back. "I should get going now, thank you for the breakfast chef!" he said before heading to the garden.
He had another thirty minutes before waking up the master so he decided to take a look at the beautiful flowers.
He filled the water pot and looked for the flower bushes.
"Ow look who we have here! Jimin the ugly boy!"
He turned around to find handsome
Hyungsik smiling charmingly to him.
Jimin widened his eyes because he didn't have the gardener with his denim overalls, plastic boots and dirt all over his face but instead a very handsome young man wearing a white shirt and classy nocturne blue blazzer and pants.

"You look different.." Jimin mumbled. "You don't look like a gardener."
Hyungsik chuckled and approached him. "And what does a gardener look like?"
"Well.." Jimin rubbed the back of his neck. "Certainly not like this." he added, pointing at the older's outfit. "Is your family secretly rich or something?"
The older just laughed. "Not at all, it's just that the master pays me quite well."
"Oh." Jimin nodded.
"So what are you doing in the garden?"
"I saw tulipes yesterday so I thought I could water them."
"Oh, I was going to do it so how about we water them together?" Hyungsik asked.
"Alright."
They walked until they reached the bushes.
They knelt in front of the flowers and started watering them. "Be careful, there are Aechmeas behind the Tulipes."
"Aechmeas?"
Hyungsik gently pushed some Tulipes to show him some gorgeous looking pink flowers. "These strange flowers are called Aechmeas. They look beautiful but are quite dangerous." he said, staring at Jimin.
"How dangerous?"
"They can sting you and make you bleed."
"Oh, so I won't approach them even though it's quite tempting." the blond chuckled.
"I know right." Hyungsik didn't take his eyes off him.
They kept watering the yellow Tulipes in a silence they both appreciated.
The mansion was far from the city, in a region where only the richest Alphas lived.
Only the tree leaves moving with the gentle breeze and the bird's chirping could be heard.
"Alright! We finished." Hyungsik smiled. "Aren't you supposed to wake the master up?"
"Yes, I still have five more minutes."
"Okay, I'll go change quickly and- Jimin don't!" he shouted when the younger couldn't resist touching an Aechmea.
"Ouch!"
"I told you.."
"Damn.." Jimin cursed when he saw the blood coming out from the tip of his index finger.
"Wait." the young man took his hand and sucked the blood from his finger.
"Wha-are you crazy?!" Jimin widened his eyes.
"Shuu.. Let me stop the bleeding."
The younger blushed at the sudden intimate contact. "I..I gotta go.." he slightly pushed Hyungsik and ran inside the mansion.
