The tension in the morgue rose as sudden as Minwoo's appearance. Even upstairs in the lobby, nurses frowned at each other, having a very bad feeling.552Please respect copyright.PENANAqgezuc2IXv
552Please respect copyright.PENANAer5KjfPMgz
"Who did you meet?" Dongwook asked very calm for how angry he really was. "Was it that young Dohwan?"552Please respect copyright.PENANANTWY0GDKr0
552Please respect copyright.PENANAkMpqxYcrLL
"No. It was a man of different quality than us; a man who knew Yerin before she came to Asia." Minwoo replied meekly. "I didn't know what to do. I just- I-"552Please respect copyright.PENANAwvMnRITg0f
552Please respect copyright.PENANAEuQyseqYEV
Dongwook waited patiently for the man to explain himself, even urging him to do so by raising an eyebrow. But Minwoo couldn't even remember why he gave out Yerin anymore. It was stupid and he was going to pay for his mistake.552Please respect copyright.PENANAwMDSJNp7tK
552Please respect copyright.PENANAK70Pu9Tlbs
"I've been thrown from one miserable place to another for my whole life. I thought after Joon left me to rot under the sun, she will too when I won't be needed anymore."552Please respect copyright.PENANAdsG0j7Kk4h
552Please respect copyright.PENANAcBSTHo0kE1
"For how long have you been thinking about this? A year? A month? A-"552Please respect copyright.PENANAX4sDPOiyPY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAiS9lSFuytl
"Ever since she saved me. It's been 60 years..."
Hearing that, Dongwook's eyes flickered with hatred, feeling his canines threatening to grow at work. He had to grab the corpse table in order to calm himself down.552Please respect copyright.PENANAAdibgbUpNn
552Please respect copyright.PENANAAcBy4TX1Wx
"When did you tell them about her?"552Please respect copyright.PENANASTX7RjNzub
552Please respect copyright.PENANAev6rzbPRjB
"We were in Beijing when I saw him. We were visiting Jiwon's inheritor and I saw him. He was amazing. He was this character taken from fantasy movies or books with long golden locks and bright blue eyes. He was tall and imposing and very, very old." Minwoo explained, looking down at his fingers. "He grabbed my hand and I could feel this immense power run through me. It was like electricity slipping into my body and I felt it...for a brief moment, my eyes became red."552Please respect copyright.PENANASNZmvaRW44
552Please respect copyright.PENANAxifn5V91qM
Dongwook frowned.552Please respect copyright.PENANA1uvFIPHUO7
552Please respect copyright.PENANA0yHRdp38oa
"Only original vampires have red eyes. If Erin's father is dead and his brothers are too, then-"552Please respect copyright.PENANAUGfyzTeNkt
552Please respect copyright.PENANAzJLTjhGc1k
"Exactly. They're not dead. Her father is alive and this man I met, he's most definitely part of her family."
"So, I walk into my father's office and I see his secretary with a man. He was the general manager in pediatrics. I couldn't help but admire how brave they were to consume their relationship in there." Ji Soo told one of the very many affairs that took place in his father's hospital. Somehow, the listeners were really interested in what he had to say.
"Did your father kill them?" Asked one of the listeners, a young woman that looked like she barely graduated high school.552Please respect copyright.PENANA3X2AGFBa0k
552Please respect copyright.PENANAKZdbdelq0F
"No, though he did look like he wanted to. He fired both of them."552Please respect copyright.PENANAjshyqKzgvw
552Please respect copyright.PENANAzXmXGdZIsE
It strangely seemed like they were disappointed. Well, it didn't matter because Ji Soo had a lot of stories and the listeners seemed eager to hear more.552Please respect copyright.PENANAPsa6MyI7HS
552Please respect copyright.PENANAeFhJydOmAv
At the bar, a few feet from the table where Ji Soo was the main entertainment source, Seojoon and Jiwon were sighing.552Please respect copyright.PENANAFPkXmU0N3V
552Please respect copyright.PENANAqy5VhqVqz0
"I can't believe he doesn't feel anything wrong. He's surrounded by blood suckers yet he talks about affairs." Jiwon mumbled, frowning when she saw one hand crawl up Ji Soo's thigh.552Please respect copyright.PENANAg314Ju2q9I
552Please respect copyright.PENANAmmeiqVWMvU
"He's a big boy." Seojoon replied amused when he noticed the hand crawl upwards. By now even Ji Soo seemed to notice the position he was in.552Please respect copyright.PENANAQRS7ZzwqEZ
552Please respect copyright.PENANAWvNAcjKYPu
"He's a stupid human. Just wait until one of these suckers draw him out and-" she hissed and copied the movement that vampires do in most movies, as if they want to hover over you yet you stink thus they scrunch their noses in disgust.552Please respect copyright.PENANAuUSoT8jqZj
552Please respect copyright.PENANAFn5EX7q2Jj
Seojoon's eyes squinted, suppressing really loud laughter.552Please respect copyright.PENANApIVH3eU8M3
552Please respect copyright.PENANAtrKUKnpFPZ
"If you're so worried, you should just go there and claim him as yours."552Please respect copyright.PENANAPP09s0aZFI
552Please respect copyright.PENANAwfAyiMKvNg
If it wasn't already funny enough, hearing his last statement, Jiwon almost fell over her stool.552Please respect copyright.PENANAXC8lwM4mlS
552Please respect copyright.PENANAqBlrPxI7NJ
"Are you insane? No. Let him walk out with whoever he wants."552Please respect copyright.PENANAObAswJ3H4S
552Please respect copyright.PENANATBcbRErfEc
As if destiny was messing with her, it so happened that Ji Soo got up and walked towards the bar with a girl following close behind. Jiwon bit her lip, trying not to hiss at the young vampire. The human only had the bartender apron on and he quickly untied it before giving it to Seojoon.552Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rtm37ykLa
552Please respect copyright.PENANAxqOTS5ZB4e
"I'll take the rest of the night off. I don't have to officially work until Friday anyway, right?" He smiled coyly and waved at Jiwon before he grabbed the hand of the girl and left.552Please respect copyright.PENANAas3R5VOSSP
552Please respect copyright.PENANAr2Kb3r2puz
"He's going to get bitten." Jiwon assured her friend, "Just wait, tomorrow he'll return a different man." She added her eyes set on the front door.552Please respect copyright.PENANAuJRH8PUxb3
552Please respect copyright.PENANAckh4LgyNiv
"Maybe-"552Please respect copyright.PENANA9c6JCEOzoy
552Please respect copyright.PENANAxBPTUDCyNw
"I'll only do him a favor once." She interrupted before she literally zoomed out the door.552Please respect copyright.PENANAA21uUScdtw
552Please respect copyright.PENANASQM3aqALaF
Seojoon shook his head and returned to preparing drinks, having quite a lot if vampires glance at him. It was uncomfortable but knowing that Liu Wei was in the back, made the younger vampire feel safer.
When Dongwook arrived home, he found the lights on and clothes thrown all around the living room. It was a mess and even the kitchen seemed used.552Please respect copyright.PENANACgspoPi9tn
552Please respect copyright.PENANAcCfJeDDqqO
He found her in the bathroom; the door was wide open while she was standing crouched in the bathtub. He couldn't see her face but he could feel something was bugging her.552Please respect copyright.PENANA8EwfhkM56b
552Please respect copyright.PENANAlLjHfZojXM
Standing with her back at him, Dongwook could also see the mark. It was a tree with branches that seemed to grow into her skin, especially her spine. 552Please respect copyright.PENANAa622RWAMEX
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQApaFCRrzM
"Yerin? Are you alright?" He asked walking closer to her. He was one step from bending behind her when he stopped and took a step back instead. "Yerin..."552Please respect copyright.PENANAAXowaMDaMR
552Please respect copyright.PENANAP3hVs2xp42
She was standing there with water falling over her head from the shower, gripping her knees close to her chest and staring at the tiles on the wall. It was scary to be honest; Dongwook had to think carefully how to move her inside the bedroom.552Please respect copyright.PENANA1aKEdYfYu8
552Please respect copyright.PENANAjD6j7tS8mV
"Is it the mark?" He asked just to be sure. She blinked once which he took as an approval. "Do you need blood?" 552Please respect copyright.PENANAEOxSLaRhSy
552Please respect copyright.PENANA4b1bFHGjZL
"No." She answered in an empty voice. She turned to look at Dongwook and that's when he saw it. "I ate already." 552Please respect copyright.PENANAmnt2p5IfCK
552Please respect copyright.PENANAjlqDPNercn
"I...can see that." 552Please respect copyright.PENANAJcZgZLnj9e
552Please respect copyright.PENANAok2jBQxGVW
She probably washed up the blood on her body but still had a bit around her mouth. The smell from his bath lotion was so strong that it covered the smell of blood completely so he didn’t catch any suspicious smell when he arrived. 552Please respect copyright.PENANAbuX68rirF9
552Please respect copyright.PENANAd7ZpOjPM6J
"Did they come to you?" He asked and she nodded, "Did you kill them all?" Dobgwook asked already knowing the answer. 552Please respect copyright.PENANAMxp0sZTMTf
552Please respect copyright.PENANAtcXaAOHDxh
"It was a group of four fresh vampires..."552Please respect copyright.PENANAxT7rzorIod
552Please respect copyright.PENANAzlsrGDQJNQ
"Why did you kill them?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAQqJ7YpY6iP
552Please respect copyright.PENANAWN8gNJ3v6l
"They said my father is alive. Even worse, he entrusted my cousin with taking me back. If not, he can kill me."
It was something he had done before. It was easy to lure a woman to his place, have fun for the night and wake up in the morning feeling content. What Ji Soo didn't consider was his newest conquest seeing him as more than a one night stand; as food, to be precise.552Please respect copyright.PENANAqeOZoC0Km7
552Please respect copyright.PENANAs0MI2JJiEz
"So want to take a taxi to my place or should we-" Ji Soo was shocked when the girl pulled him against the wall and kissed him. It was very fast and surprising but he liked it.552Please respect copyright.PENANAsK833Ncq8P
552Please respect copyright.PENANAyT7LVIzSWH
Giving in to her, they started to kiss more and more ardently to the point Ji Soo felt a knee groping his manhood.552Please respect copyright.PENANAVnidClzriX
552Please respect copyright.PENANA4EZGfewgHi
"No matter how much I enjoy this we should seriously get a room into a love hotel." He whispered breathing heavily.552Please respect copyright.PENANAUBv3BYGpBK
552Please respect copyright.PENANApl1nfQGGyY
"You don't like this?" The girl asked innocently though her actions were anything but.552Please respect copyright.PENANAUGdoamigaM
552Please respect copyright.PENANAXO4ZtpQFlF
"No! No, I do! But-" He didn't even finish when she kissed him again. "Really-what-if-someone-sees-us?" He asked through the pecks.552Please respect copyright.PENANA4uTfnrt1eC
552Please respect copyright.PENANAAIRMIZz9Dh
"No one will. Trust me. I'll take good care of you." She mumbled her eyes looking straight into his as she cornered him against the wall.552Please respect copyright.PENANAHeVzBftdcz
552Please respect copyright.PENANApT7HMjQrD2
In the spur of the moment, Ji Soo's mind went blank and he let himself led by lust. She was very pretty so the temptation to try and do something crazy with her was, well, tempting.552Please respect copyright.PENANAZUB2F92rlA
552Please respect copyright.PENANAyqRDRVqJTx
While kissing and fumbling with each other's clothes, the girl succeeded in letting him shirtless. Ji Soo was not an ugly man and his body was well sculptured. He had every right to be self confident in a society where both men and women were objectified. What he didn't quite understand yet enjoyed anyway was how the girl started to kiss his neck and didn't return to his lips. He tried to catch her lips once or twice but she was avoiding it, concentrating on letting butterflies kisses on the crook of his neck.552Please respect copyright.PENANApTn2H92p4l
552Please respect copyright.PENANAAjyRHxkxY3
It was pleasing but at the same time static. Of course that changed when he felt the tip of her tongue lick his soft spot. Unconsciously, he moaned which surprised him. She licked once more before she bit him lightly. It was new, to be sincere. She bit him again making him close his eyes in pleasure. He was fully enjoying it when someone slapped him hard against his face.552Please respect copyright.PENANAR7kEJuteK8
552Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZIwT5P0iM
"What the-" He couldn't finish his sentence because he was witnessing some strange sight.552Please respect copyright.PENANA5TwHiHR66F
552Please respect copyright.PENANAyofS1p5sBO
"Wake up and see the world as it is." Jiwon advised, having her hand tight around the girl's neck.552Please respect copyright.PENANAYb0kwknKDm
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQZax1Nuduz
"Are you out of your mind?! You're killing her!"552Please respect copyright.PENANAAAZg0oCFEB
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQFnoUdWFG4
Jiwon scoffed before forcing the girl's head towards the rich boy.552Please respect copyright.PENANAqRO5S8T5B5
552Please respect copyright.PENANAD9wHaN2TWc
"Look closely. Don't you see something strange?" She asked.552Please respect copyright.PENANAZUjzcPTKIm
552Please respect copyright.PENANAMzCkfKEAxT
Only then did he really look and he wished he didn't. In front of him was a thirsty creature with eyes narrowed and fangs. He gulped and took a step towards Jiwon, hiding behind her.552Please respect copyright.PENANAJHOm3g8JsT
552Please respect copyright.PENANABMebIic65i
"What's that?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAohBmN6Oa53
552Please respect copyright.PENANAqW5INzVJN5
"An immortal; you call it vampire." She explained, tightening her grip on the girl, "She obviously targeted you and planned to suck you dry."552Please respect copyright.PENANAnv5Pjz92HJ
552Please respect copyright.PENANA7RFMPwmR3g
"Of my blood?" He asked his eyes widening at the revelation.552Please respect copyright.PENANAKRQWsHircF
552Please respect copyright.PENANA0CQAIKBU34
"What else? Believe me she didn't fancy you at all."552Please respect copyright.PENANAmqy3pBpkLj
552Please respect copyright.PENANAKlNNlAk28M
The tone Jiwon used and the way she glanced at the man made him feel offended. He turned to the vampire and glared at her even if she did please him up to some point.552Please respect copyright.PENANAWeixUzfAKy
552Please respect copyright.PENANApTSTtFlcjp
"I manage my love life well, thank you very much," But the vampire chuckled, annoying him even more.552Please respect copyright.PENANAVNdvEv4M4q
552Please respect copyright.PENANA82KDYBG8KV
"You want me to kill her then?" Jiwon asked bemusedly.552Please respect copyright.PENANAjzOB0EUE99
552Please respect copyright.PENANA9n1MVam4tK
"Yes. No, wait-" Too late because Jiwon already gripped her harder and plunger her available hand through the vampire's chest. "Oh my God, you ripped her heart out." Ji Soo had to say those words out loud in order to assure himself he wasn't insane.552Please respect copyright.PENANAGNRneNYKaZ
552Please respect copyright.PENANAwoFmc7gQaD
"Of course I did. How else would I have killed her? Gently squeezing her neck?" She retorted before she realized he was far more shaken than he sounded, "Do you want me to take you home?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAIRqTk0CUSY
552Please respect copyright.PENANAFGLaxqi3sG
Ji Soo thought about it for a moment before he nodded; to Hell with his manly pride after what he witnessed.
"So vampires are real." Ji Soo started once they walked inside his apartment.552Please respect copyright.PENANAPf4Oyr2oFO
552Please respect copyright.PENANAfXoL7sko9f
Really, he didn't lie when he said he has a lot of money. Jiwon believed him to be an extravagant man, but the place was tasteful in his simplicity.552Please respect copyright.PENANAMRp6FdzTtU
552Please respect copyright.PENANA8qrZbVfKB7
"Yes."552Please respect copyright.PENANAuv0VU0eRUu
552Please respect copyright.PENANAW4UU3PLmy6
"And you are one too." He added.552Please respect copyright.PENANAn1W7VRBjbd
552Please respect copyright.PENANAI0hFMW06Aq
"Obviously."552Please respect copyright.PENANArVTxjAcvjA
552Please respect copyright.PENANABB55dRtKl9
Ji Soo nodded, his eyes showing just how quick his brain was to register that a subject many believed was fictional was actually very real.552Please respect copyright.PENANAUovF8BAYG8
552Please respect copyright.PENANA5TRcV1avcN
"And you kill people so that you can feed. You have fangs, red eyes and are afraid of sunlight."552Please respect copyright.PENANA0jCOq5RVet
552Please respect copyright.PENANA8ISG7ueCIh
"I am not afraid of the sun nor have red eyes. Only the original immortals have red eyes because they had direct contact to the source that created them." Jiwon explained, looking around at all the expensive objects around his living room.552Please respect copyright.PENANA2jZiLLAaXt
552Please respect copyright.PENANAMYYaNy7fNS
"Which is Dracula?" Ji Soo was growing curious.552Please respect copyright.PENANANUTTDd5T1K
552Please respect copyright.PENANAEy51qPXLdE
"No. Immortals have been created because they drank from the Blood Lake. The Blood Lake is a lake where many corpses were thrown after killed in the battle by Dracula." She explained when she saw Ji Soo's confused expression.552Please respect copyright.PENANAR0ANzfTb62
552Please respect copyright.PENANA5KssFm5enj
"I get it." He said as he started to change into his pyjamas. "So you only have fangs. Does that-does that mean the others know about vampires too or is it your secret?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAlxyFsuuA1U
552Please respect copyright.PENANAvvko8IL4Gz
Jiwon felt like laughing but did her best not to.552Please respect copyright.PENANACK2fyGZblK
552Please respect copyright.PENANACwAOYp5ckp
"Liu Wei, Park Seojoon and Park Minwoo. Why don't you search their names on SNS?"552Please respect copyright.PENANA1rqcUgOETu
552Please respect copyright.PENANAvygQmnfej1
Ji Soo grabbed his laptop quicker than when he was talking to girls online. He first typed Liu Wei and the page that appeared was short. Liu Wei was sentenced to death after he committed treason. Also, he worked under the emperor of the Quing Dynasty. Next were Seojoon and Minwoo, both born in the 18th century. One was a conman and one was a student but Minwoo died earlier, murdered in his own house.552Please respect copyright.PENANASsjV2S3RIX
552Please respect copyright.PENANApddszmQcpD
"They died. They are all dead."552Please respect copyright.PENANAcpBDaOxAk9
552Please respect copyright.PENANAPooiYwaiko
"Or not." Jiwon pitched in, sitting on the black couch in his living room. It was very spacious for one man. "I died long before any of them as a slave in France."552Please respect copyright.PENANATeHohnF1mw
552Please respect copyright.PENANAHkUu6i04RG
Ji Soo's eyes widened.552Please respect copyright.PENANA5Z8ENpidNK
552Please respect copyright.PENANA6ACVzYQIxZ
"Who-who changed you?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAxiQd5Q5bOi
552Please respect copyright.PENANAI9t2bzsCCH
"Liu Wei and I, we've been changed by one of the original immortals. Seojoon was changed by Minwoo and Minwoo by the King of Thieves, Lee Joon." She replied nonchalantly, the subject being one of the most common in her point of view.552Please respect copyright.PENANAkcFU7DNroI
552Please respect copyright.PENANAG1Rn2J2tqQ
"Oh my God...that's insane. Wait, is that why your club has so few people? And why you mainly serve wine?"552Please respect copyright.PENANA9zvlA6xQtm
552Please respect copyright.PENANA1nHGcqjsWB
"No. We bought the pub because we wanted to keep a low profile. Most of our clients are humans but ever since you came in, vampires came too."552Please respect copyright.PENANAcQYCLES3MQ
552Please respect copyright.PENANAhnGzY6YnKg
"So everyone was there tonight because of me?"552Please respect copyright.PENANAcyo9ayZ9rh
552Please respect copyright.PENANAI15UERBceL
"They smelled your blood yes. And we do mix wine with blood. We're old enough to know how to manage our blood supplies."552Please respect copyright.PENANApCBlSrGYxg
552Please respect copyright.PENANAVf33m8QvFK
Jiwon watched how Ji Soo was taking the information in but not reacting accordingly.552Please respect copyright.PENANA4UiYMSEYIC
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQrusEccC43
"I...understand, I guess. Thanks for saving my life." He said, looking at her with genuine innocence. It took Jiwon by surprise, especially because he did look very attractive in that moment.552Please respect copyright.PENANAJpo1KcghQI
552Please respect copyright.PENANA9LL3jxGBN0
"You're welcome." She grumbled, trying to keep herself in check. It was hard with how strong Ji Soo smelled of pheromones. "You should take a shower and go to sleep. I'll tell Liu Wei that you won't stop by anymore."552Please respect copyright.PENANA8uttYB5YPT
552Please respect copyright.PENANArVx3YeekT1
Ji Soo never thought about that but now that she said it, it made him realize that everyone he befriended in the last few weeks were vampires. It was so surreal.552Please respect copyright.PENANAQWaJm5nfiT
552Please respect copyright.PENANAMoUUU4DDnf
But nothing was said between the two. Jiwon watched the human enter his bathroom and waited for the water to turn on before she walked towards the door.552Please respect copyright.PENANAS9IPIwhscb
552Please respect copyright.PENANAoCTFXz7EHG
Inside, now naked and alone, Ji Soo closed his eyes and moved under the shower. He could still feel the vampire's hands and breath and how intoxicating she was. Then he couldn't help but remember the same girl with a look on her face that showed nothing but animalistic hunger. Realization was settling in and adrenaline was fading. The tremble started in his left hand before it went up and down his whole body. Steam was rising in the air and Ji Soo swore he heard something move behind him. He drew the door open but no one was there. He took one step out and looked in the mirror where he saw those hungry eyes and fangs. He screamed loudly, falling on his bottom against the wall.552Please respect copyright.PENANAkOL7JjgVaJ
552Please respect copyright.PENANABPlnUNPqW1
"Ji Soo? Are you alright?" He heard Jiwon ask from behind the door. Meekly, he got up and opened the door, pulling her in by her hand.552Please respect copyright.PENANAZumXaDsoNc
552Please respect copyright.PENANAmKOjCJ6LbV
"I think-I think I'm scared. Can you-stay with me tonight?" He asked, gripping her hand tightly.552Please respect copyright.PENANA5uUUtvEA9Z
552Please respect copyright.PENANA34M4JRweAT
Jiwon couldn't concentrate. The pheromones that Ji Soo was emanating were like kryptonite for her.552Please respect copyright.PENANAVdOYbRxr3Q
552Please respect copyright.PENANAsaLsPW5Zz6
"You're naked. I'll just wait outside." she mumbled trying not to look down.552Please respect copyright.PENANAQrfmHOD4hm
552Please respect copyright.PENANA25zCqQKwxT
But he didn't let her go; he pulled her in his arms, hugging her tightly.552Please respect copyright.PENANAUJHL63HLfc
552Please respect copyright.PENANAnfhT3WHY11
"Why aren't you affected by my heart?" He asked close to her ear.552Please respect copyright.PENANAnB65TNwLqT
552Please respect copyright.PENANAQn9ddZVgVq
"It's not your blood that affects me. Humans gain this strong smell when they are liked by a vampire." She mumbled in his chest.552Please respect copyright.PENANA269E5JUCYs
552Please respect copyright.PENANAy9ffiI7t8Z
"Do you like me?" He asked pushing her lightly and looking down at her. It was weird how she looked nothing like a vampire yet he saw her kill someone.552Please respect copyright.PENANAnF2XjYIhnS
552Please respect copyright.PENANAh1EG0H3A1M
"Let's talk about this when you'll have a clear mind. You look for some kind of affection right now and-"552Please respect copyright.PENANAqSKrtgFzyq
552Please respect copyright.PENANAMX5W3Slncd
Jiwon's eyes widened when Ji Soo kissed her. His smell was so strong as he pushed her against the wall that she could feel her legs give in. The human helped Jiwon by scooping her into his arms and continued kissing her. Unlike the other vampire, Jiwon seemed gentle and genuine. It wasn't just sex for her, it was so much more.
