Young lady!
Seokjin suddenly heard something from far away. His head c****d to the direction where it came from and raised his eyebrows.
"Something is going on." Seokjin muttered as he raised his eyebrows. He tried to hear it again.
The young lady is dying!
"Whose young lady?" Seokjin asked in confusion. All the boys now looked at him, wondering about his murmurs and just interrupted the heated argument.
"Are you alright, Seokjin?" Hoseok asked in worry and Seokjin's brows furrowed and looked at them.
"Someone is dying." He muttered. He could hear voices of moans, groans and screams even from far away. No one could hear it except from him—maybe Jimin could hear it as well as he looked confused.
But then something hit Namjoon.
"Elisse..." Namjoon started to panic and immediately speeds his way to the room, leaving the rest of the boys.
He opened the door to see Elisse who was already vomiting blood. He ran as fast as he could towards Elisse, pushing the human maid and catches her before she could fall from the bed. She was coughing up blood with Namjoon wrapping his arms around the fragile girl.
He looked at the human maid he pushed aside and hissed. "Leave now!"
The human maid nodded and walked out of the room while Namjoon was focused on Elisse again who was trying her best to stay conscious and covering her mouth, full of blood. His teeth gritted and firmly hold his woman.
Jin! Better tell Jimin to get the f**k in here before I beat the s**t out of him if ever something happens to Elisse! He tried to connect with Seokjin, hoping he could hear and he did.
The boys arrived in the room including Taehyung. They were shocked at the sight but Taehyung was calmed about the situation since he knew this coming. He intended it to be this way anyway.
"Jimin, you fucker!" The broken man who witnessed his love, almost dying, yelled at the person who marked her. "You little t**t better give her your blood or else I'll f*****g kill you myself!"
He is second to Taehyung. Namjoon is capable of killing Jimin. Seokjin thought to himself as he was standing there and watching the scene along with Hoseok, Jimin and Taehyung.
"What are you standing there, Jimin?!" Hoseok screamed at his fellow Duke who just stood frozen and eyes widened. "Give her your damn blood!"
Jimin nodded and speeds off towards her, and Namjoon who was eager to feed her off with Jimin's blood, immediately grabbed his wrist and bit it causing Jimin to wince a bit as he could feel Namjoon's fangs sinking into his flesh and sucking his blood out.
After a few minutes, Namjoon pulled away and pressed his lips against Elisse’s lips, forcing her to open her mouth and let the blood slid in. He pulled away, wiping the blood off and looked at Elisse, in hope that she will wake up.
"Why are you giving her Jimin's blood, Namjoon? What happened to her? Who is she?" Seokjin, who was out of the world, questioned. Out of the four, he was the only one who didn't knew about Elisse.
"She is Ha Na's best friend." Hoseok sighed. "Taehyung here must've done something to Elisse for her to be like in this state. No one knows."
"I only gave her what she deserves to have." Taehyung groaned.
"But you didn't have to bit her to the point where it would kill her!" Hoseok snapped at Taehyung while Jimin and Namjoon didn't bother as they were just waiting for Elisse to wake up. And Seokjin, was confused as hell.
"What are you two talking about?!" Seokjin yelled, gaining everyone's attention.
They all stared at him and Hoseok decided to spit it out. "Jimin marked Elisse while Taehyung bit Elisse when he knew that Jimin clearly marked her. We all knew about Jimin's unique way of marking his target."
Seokjin raised his eyebrows, slowly getting what he meant. He knew that Taehyung is capable of killing Jimin's target. He's the owner of that ability after all.
"Taehyung." Seokjin is now glaring at his little brother-like. His position as an Elder of the group was now kicking, not as the weakest duke. "Why were you trying to kill Elisse?"
"Right, you shouldn't have given Jimin that ability if you intended to get something away from Jimin anyway." Namjoon muttered, groaning but it's enough for the boys to hear.
"Shut up you all! She's waking!" Jimin hushed. Elisse started to move and groaned.
A heavy sigh of relief filled the room as Elisse started to get conscious. And on the part of Elisse, she looked around the room, confused as to what is happening and looked at Namjoon who was holding her.
"Namjoon?" She shivered under him and Namjoon grinned happily, embracing her into tight hug and snuggled his head on her shoulder, stroking Elisse's flowing hair. He was glad that she's still alive.
"Thank y-you. For being alive." He said and tears started to roll down his eyes.
Hoseok and Seokjin smiled at the scene as they knew what was happening. It was unexpected that he found someone already. He found her.
"She must be his soulmate." Taehyung muttered under his breath and frowned, leaving the boys alone.
He closed the door and left the boys, speeding towards back to Ha Na's room. Taehyung opened the door and could hear her little snores. He walked towards her silently, not wanting to wake his Queen. He tucked his hair behind and looked at his woman who was sleeping peacefully.
He knew that his love story would be tragic. He was destined to have it. He wished that he could have her all by himself just like any other ordinary vampires who found their soulmates. He wanted her by himself now. But he doesn't know that marking her would be enough for Jimin to back out. He doesn't know if making her his Queen would make him back out.
He watched her silently and a smile appeared his lips but soon replaced by a frown.
"Y-Yoongi..." Taehyung flinched when the name of her lover was rolled out from his Queen's mouth.
Images of Yoongi and Ha Na flashed his mind. But the image where he encountered Yoongi alone was played in his mind even more. He didn't intend what he did before.
Stroking his hair, he called her. "My love..."
He stared at the flawless beauty in front of him. "Stop dreaming about him and stop looking for him. He's gone and left you already."
Taehyung's voice became cold as the next words came out as a hissed. "He's gone out of the picture now. It's Jimin and I only."
A smirk formed on his lips.
"If you do that, I'm going to make you the most powerful woman—the Queen, and make them bow before you."
