When we arrived at my house, Woojin turned to face me. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you who I was.”

“It’s okay. We did just meet.” I giggled. “You’ll be shocked if you knew what I was.” 

He smiled, “Just tell me when you are ready. How about I pick you up in the morning?” I looked at him in surprise. 

“You want to take me to school?” 

“Yeah. I mean if it’s okay with you. I would like to get to know you better.” He got shy and looked away. 

“I think that’s a great idea.” I smiled at him. He walked me to the door. “Thank you.”

He smiled and got closer, he gave me a peck on the cheek. “Goodnight. I’ll see you in the morning.” I was left speechless and saw him walk to his car. He turned around before getting in and waved to me. 

I waved back, and watch him get in and leave. I felt my heart flutter a little. I walked into the house still speechless. I smiled and started humming. 

“You look like an idiot.” I turned around and noticed Keonhee by the door. 

“What are you doing here?” I gave him a sour look. I went into the living room and noticed everyone else here. 

“Oh, yay. You’re back.” Seoho jumped up from where he was sitting and ran up to me. I nodded and headed to my room. 

Seoho followed me and laid on my bed. “Did you have fun with him?” 

I looked at him confused. I went into my bathroom, changed, washed my face and brushed my teeth. When I came out, Seoho was still there. “Aren’t you leaving?”

He smiled and sat up. “Nope.” 

“Why not?” I walked up and laid on my stomach. I started going through my phone and received a message from Woojin. I couldn’t help but smile. 

Seoho pouted and took my phone, “Hey!” I tried to reach for it, but he didn’t let me get it that easily. 

He grabbed my arms and threw me on the bed, ending up on top of me. “What is up with you men always grabbing onto me.” 

“I don’t like that my woman was with another man.” 

I stopped and looked at him, “Excuse me? Your what?”

“My WOMAN.,” he said it more strongly. 

“And since when did I become your woman?” I asked him.

“Starting today.” I was about to protest when he kissed me. Not again. This time I wasn’t going to be played. My eyes became white and I pushed him off. He landed on his feet. 

I hissed at him. “If you or any of your friends come close to me again. I will kill you.” I picked up my hand and flung him out of my room, closing the door. 

These stupid vampires. Maybe I should transfer out of school? Maybe I can go to AB High?

{Woojin’s POV}

I walked into the house, not knowing I had a silly grin on my face. 

Daehwi comes up to me, “Oh! Woojin Hyung! What’s with that face.” He giggled at me and I stopped smiling. 

“What face?” I asked. 

Daehwi gave me a sly smile and went to the kitchen where the rest of the guys were. “Hyungs! Woojin Hyung was smiling so weird right now!” 

They all looked at me with curiosity. I tried my best to act like what Daehwi said wasn’t true. 

“Who’s the lucky lady?” Woong asked. 

I looked around the fridge. “I don’t know what you are talking about.” I grabbed a water bottle and sat with them by the counter. 

“The lies!” Donghyun said. 

“It’s obviously a girl has you looking like an i***t. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be acting weird like you are now.” Woong pointed out. 

“Guys. I’m serious.” This was not going to end until I told them the truth. 

Youngmin comes and sits closer, “Listen, little bro, you know we won’t leave you alone until you say something.” 

I signed and looked at all of them. “You’re not going to like this though.”

“Just tell us!” Daehwi started jumping in his seat impatiently. 

“Okay!” I smiled and started talking, “It is because of a girl.” 

“Ohhh!!” They all laughed. 

“She is beautiful. She has really brown curly hair that goes up to her shoulder. Big beautiful hazel eyes. And a smile! She came into the cafe.” I chuckled think back at that time. “She lost her way of getting home. It turned out she was on the other side of town. Apparently she has no sense of direction, which I found so cute, it makes me want to look after her.  Oh! And she has dimples. I was going to bring to stay over since she didn’t remember where she was staying, but her brother and his friends found her.” 

They all started giggling. “Wow. This girl has you hooked! What school does she go to?” Youngmin asked.

“That part you’re not going to like.” They started getting serious. “She’s from Valkyrie High.” 

Their faces went dark. “Are you crazy?!” Donghyun stood up.

“Valkyrie High? What is she?” Woong asked.

“I don’t know. She didn’t tell me.”

“You don’t know what she is? What about her brother and his friends?” Woong continued. 

“That’s the thing. The brother’s friends were clearly vampires. But she and her brother didn’t have any scent, they look and smell like humans.” I pointed out.

Daehwi shook his head, “I don’t like this. You shouldn’t see her anymore, Hyung. We are trained to kill her kind. What if a sponsor wants her head? We have to kill her.”

I just stayed quiet, I knew it wouldn’t be a good idea, but I didn’t know it would be this difficult. I really like and don’t want to hurt her. I looked at guys, who were waiting for me to say something. 

“Don’t worry. I’ll talk to her tomorrow.”
