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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA3uEiVm1Uf5
588Please respect copyright.PENANAweaHamwekR
"Who did you meet?" Dongwook asked very calm for how angry he really was. "Was it that young Dohwan?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAn8CLRC9W06
588Please respect copyright.PENANAVvTzQV2ZPq
"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-"588Please respect copyright.PENANARqVmp7o728
588Please respect copyright.PENANARPk3dNklT6
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAD5QElHnBF3
588Please respect copyright.PENANAI0TNNeKncm
"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."588Please respect copyright.PENANA1Zi6Pxuzhq
588Please respect copyright.PENANAp8ZuOnaHnd
"For how long have you been thinking about this? A year? A month? A-"588Please respect copyright.PENANAkOR06oCjjN
588Please respect copyright.PENANAFfAKzH81CV
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA9WAbtU2tls
588Please respect copyright.PENANAVkBkW84URp
"When did you tell them about her?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAxzp24UlaMI
588Please respect copyright.PENANAG0494zApTC
"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."588Please respect copyright.PENANAOQzYcqGqAo
588Please respect copyright.PENANAsBv2tlDlNM
Dongwook frowned.588Please respect copyright.PENANA06B7JEEThh
588Please respect copyright.PENANA1TwwCfGnby
"Only original vampires have red eyes. If Erin's father is dead and his brothers are too, then-"588Please respect copyright.PENANAcFo44FW9hh
588Please respect copyright.PENANAoeIlvoRxUb
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA0jKxeujVQX
588Please respect copyright.PENANAPkdwIo89i7
"No, though he did look like he wanted to. He fired both of them."588Please respect copyright.PENANAdyPLSQgyhW
588Please respect copyright.PENANA5nURAcJrSe
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAjaUZm6fHyN
588Please respect copyright.PENANAsaOC8rihJ7
At the bar, a few feet from the table where Ji Soo was the main entertainment source, Seojoon and Jiwon were sighing.588Please respect copyright.PENANATjgCp6zSrV
588Please respect copyright.PENANACUcimBT8pA
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAygRiFppchv
588Please respect copyright.PENANAfFdGzpDrna
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAh8czyOAmB1
588Please respect copyright.PENANAQKb4eiSmzO
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAzh7Qo1zvPr
588Please respect copyright.PENANAOJQmHO9fx7
Seojoon's eyes squinted, suppressing really loud laughter.588Please respect copyright.PENANAbyrBJRVq22
588Please respect copyright.PENANA11p7suvDzW
"If you're so worried, you should just go there and claim him as yours."588Please respect copyright.PENANAsyfjd7jDXE
588Please respect copyright.PENANAM2FlvsdKAE
If it wasn't already funny enough, hearing his last statement, Jiwon almost fell over her stool.588Please respect copyright.PENANAvyp03JXS21
588Please respect copyright.PENANAHzKcljwJmD
"Are you insane? No. Let him walk out with whoever he wants."588Please respect copyright.PENANAct7tre4Fvn
588Please respect copyright.PENANAjpWsXN8fcG
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANApnvxmg5BdF
588Please respect copyright.PENANAu81qLEyhjG
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA34A3dibVpX
588Please respect copyright.PENANAqGBpQ8yqPZ
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANARpgOGeWMEe
588Please respect copyright.PENANAw8QwsXTuwp
"Maybe-"588Please respect copyright.PENANAEUgysbsB3S
588Please respect copyright.PENANAPDfKRitwfd
"I'll only do him a favor once." She interrupted before she literally zoomed out the door.588Please respect copyright.PENANAl72FnpJTrn
588Please respect copyright.PENANAcD101HTUIp
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANATIf6Wv2uKu
588Please respect copyright.PENANAz144qQatyy
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAcDruKrR40D
588Please respect copyright.PENANAmZVzurxRHb
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. 588Please respect copyright.PENANAnx8rI7j26f
588Please respect copyright.PENANACCgLIDgDBE
"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..."588Please respect copyright.PENANAUdZDPwfToU
588Please respect copyright.PENANA9QgHcFcxPf
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA1wn166hRgG
588Please respect copyright.PENANAradW8E1Ryj
"Is it the mark?" He asked just to be sure. She blinked once which he took as an approval. "Do you need blood?" 588Please respect copyright.PENANA7Bao8AvGdN
588Please respect copyright.PENANAklWynmY2Tq
"No." She answered in an empty voice. She turned to look at Dongwook and that's when he saw it. "I ate already." 588Please respect copyright.PENANASe7aqjlTZs
588Please respect copyright.PENANAYEIHW8xpgg
"I...can see that." 588Please respect copyright.PENANA6TjxcZVtWq
588Please respect copyright.PENANAcEzqqf70Qp
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. 588Please respect copyright.PENANADIcEi32Hrx
588Please respect copyright.PENANAMo7rO2Z3kf
"Did they come to you?" He asked and she nodded, "Did you kill them all?" Dobgwook asked already knowing the answer. 588Please respect copyright.PENANAfiuMibnBbP
588Please respect copyright.PENANAdYfCkKhDZM
"It was a group of four fresh vampires..."588Please respect copyright.PENANAKcOvuvlKMr
588Please respect copyright.PENANANJ0S1OkRrZ
"Why did you kill them?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAoGc1Z78DxF
588Please respect copyright.PENANAsQ53Tso4Gu
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAZvVRK8HlSV
588Please respect copyright.PENANAcSl3pivhu7
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAH8vNKFO5jp
588Please respect copyright.PENANAaK6WDOXjJk
Giving in to her, they started to kiss more and more ardently to the point Ji Soo felt a knee groping his manhood.588Please respect copyright.PENANAOMwVQmVp7x
588Please respect copyright.PENANARKIoA9L7Rg
"No matter how much I enjoy this we should seriously get a room into a love hotel." He whispered breathing heavily.588Please respect copyright.PENANAcP5x3YVqQ9
588Please respect copyright.PENANAHVOlMYyngV
"You don't like this?" The girl asked innocently though her actions were anything but.588Please respect copyright.PENANAaS8w2RcBxg
588Please respect copyright.PENANAVuY5mQKMr4
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA3NN0hKae4G
588Please respect copyright.PENANAjWTPUtLwcr
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA0YIZlTQU1J
588Please respect copyright.PENANAzbSJ7Kk8iU
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA7rUuoOkrme
588Please respect copyright.PENANAXxrTjvHxLQ
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAwWqlfv92iK
588Please respect copyright.PENANAPQTDbFPbKM
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANABh7Fuud5P6
588Please respect copyright.PENANAglvOneUw3V
"What the-" He couldn't finish his sentence because he was witnessing some strange sight.588Please respect copyright.PENANAwRXxhZeIMg
588Please respect copyright.PENANAFSj3tNFClC
"Wake up and see the world as it is." Jiwon advised, having her hand tight around the girl's neck.588Please respect copyright.PENANAOtMdMX6fZu
588Please respect copyright.PENANAHqzTBNpf5I
"Are you out of your mind?! You're killing her!"588Please respect copyright.PENANAJpRUf4DjQn
588Please respect copyright.PENANAY2qj5GKVHo
Jiwon scoffed before forcing the girl's head towards the rich boy.588Please respect copyright.PENANAWh04mIdTPn
588Please respect copyright.PENANAzn4qRxOQAe
"Look closely. Don't you see something strange?" She asked.588Please respect copyright.PENANALdpw2iU1Jh
588Please respect copyright.PENANAMJcUJdXR55
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAi557uuaWf4
588Please respect copyright.PENANAdCMRLP43s2
"What's that?"588Please respect copyright.PENANA459FTM5QF7
588Please respect copyright.PENANA4PjdRLvP5v
"An immortal; you call it vampire." She explained, tightening her grip on the girl, "She obviously targeted you and planned to suck you dry."588Please respect copyright.PENANAGGRc6ei1Ii
588Please respect copyright.PENANAX5I6PMHzRu
"Of my blood?" He asked his eyes widening at the revelation.588Please respect copyright.PENANAaUDnBSpbSq
588Please respect copyright.PENANARTiajLM9gs
"What else? Believe me she didn't fancy you at all."588Please respect copyright.PENANAKYidn16goc
588Please respect copyright.PENANAQNzF5oZOby
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAVIFYcCmCIr
588Please respect copyright.PENANAChvGmArWVq
"I manage my love life well, thank you very much," But the vampire chuckled, annoying him even more.588Please respect copyright.PENANAWIN25To0t0
588Please respect copyright.PENANAtgn48ixCx1
"You want me to kill her then?" Jiwon asked bemusedly.588Please respect copyright.PENANAfZqbhWtyfx
588Please respect copyright.PENANATVZUgw228t
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAAU6s8QTj8J
588Please respect copyright.PENANA2sGUcj7P1Y
"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?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAQFLTgCCMln
588Please respect copyright.PENANAXa82RnjRod
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAncKF58elL7
588Please respect copyright.PENANAHNPLPNBwKr
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAhQU1SNWVqT
588Please respect copyright.PENANA6aL6fYPyNB
"Yes."588Please respect copyright.PENANAdxBHwt8FtI
588Please respect copyright.PENANA6oaWdy06M0
"And you are one too." He added.588Please respect copyright.PENANAvULj6H2oFk
588Please respect copyright.PENANAST7C7B7Vz6
"Obviously."588Please respect copyright.PENANAU7P9GRVxl1
588Please respect copyright.PENANA46e2OL1dWF
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA6nvkjdv3lT
588Please respect copyright.PENANA7eqwzpRZ29
"And you kill people so that you can feed. You have fangs, red eyes and are afraid of sunlight."588Please respect copyright.PENANAEtirw1jk4S
588Please respect copyright.PENANASLm1Sjy5Aw
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAtvAtMsnFXA
588Please respect copyright.PENANAgitD0TdJgm
"Which is Dracula?" Ji Soo was growing curious.588Please respect copyright.PENANADKRqusrzSj
588Please respect copyright.PENANAnolhnOtK2D
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANANKR0xrJONj
588Please respect copyright.PENANAe3jxPV0B1w
"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?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAvV8cZ8FaRE
588Please respect copyright.PENANAy2LngUPZAS
Jiwon felt like laughing but did her best not to.588Please respect copyright.PENANAgdB1XQ4vka
588Please respect copyright.PENANAppnoKGEgNe
"Liu Wei, Park Seojoon and Park Minwoo. Why don't you search their names on SNS?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAgd1j6ajs0J
588Please respect copyright.PENANAPReT7rxxNT
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAvV8UN4ZlLF
588Please respect copyright.PENANAM98cI4QM9K
"They died. They are all dead."588Please respect copyright.PENANARAglgMkzhp
588Please respect copyright.PENANAn7zPZkMlbN
"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."588Please respect copyright.PENANA91CRi3t5WF
588Please respect copyright.PENANAphxW2doqUb
Ji Soo's eyes widened.588Please respect copyright.PENANAEHDj9OqJXP
588Please respect copyright.PENANAskV5sLjzZP
"Who-who changed you?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAkS4EA59e8y
588Please respect copyright.PENANAfhqiHPBOk8
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAzBHXkryrvp
588Please respect copyright.PENANAc26v9nFhpd
"Oh my God...that's insane. Wait, is that why your club has so few people? And why you mainly serve wine?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAfQzexKwcgG
588Please respect copyright.PENANAgPUpjqeStu
"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."588Please respect copyright.PENANAiMFdJwtQKP
588Please respect copyright.PENANA00xKlhZMrr
"So everyone was there tonight because of me?"588Please respect copyright.PENANAMp1AGcQHdG
588Please respect copyright.PENANA1YNuIQD1AI
"They smelled your blood yes. And we do mix wine with blood. We're old enough to know how to manage our blood supplies."588Please respect copyright.PENANAfAAvWYAkwM
588Please respect copyright.PENANAayHBxa6w92
Jiwon watched how Ji Soo was taking the information in but not reacting accordingly.588Please respect copyright.PENANAos5Yr9P8WZ
588Please respect copyright.PENANAMkiBzr6D5O
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAlqHDr7JgIP
588Please respect copyright.PENANAx4I6AyYXDH
"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."588Please respect copyright.PENANA2jwBsB4juk
588Please respect copyright.PENANAoeSB7dOFc5
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA0vLtesYfSb
588Please respect copyright.PENANA4A46ybGUmc
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANA8H25az0KWm
588Please respect copyright.PENANAhxWq0Cl40N
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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAIJCFUavA1e
588Please respect copyright.PENANAhX2wMbhgzd
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANALPRhFrJhWZ
588Please respect copyright.PENANAyS6swBckCj
"I think-I think I'm scared. Can you-stay with me tonight?" He asked, gripping her hand tightly.588Please respect copyright.PENANA0ObUmu7oJF
588Please respect copyright.PENANA3MEKCZj8y5
Jiwon couldn't concentrate. The pheromones that Ji Soo was emanating were like kryptonite for her.588Please respect copyright.PENANApChRBanBW4
588Please respect copyright.PENANAaaCIqRcjf9
"You're naked. I'll just wait outside." she mumbled trying not to look down.588Please respect copyright.PENANANPgHg2UdzX
588Please respect copyright.PENANAbbl9qRSDqk
But he didn't let her go; he pulled her in his arms, hugging her tightly.588Please respect copyright.PENANAlRqPgpTcEG
588Please respect copyright.PENANAgxVwdkggRw
"Why aren't you affected by my heart?" He asked close to her ear.588Please respect copyright.PENANASD9kFODBS2
588Please respect copyright.PENANAHntz4TMKX7
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAR4dMlmAjhj
588Please respect copyright.PENANAy9gUl0OzZh
"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.588Please respect copyright.PENANAUTS5EyAQYG
588Please respect copyright.PENANAdgJEuuX7lx
"Let's talk about this when you'll have a clear mind. You look for some kind of affection right now and-"588Please respect copyright.PENANAGkbr4JSTTv
588Please respect copyright.PENANAsEfkOevamm
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.
