Darkness will sieze 

to exist as long as 

a ray of light shines bright.

As the supernaturals arrive at Gangnam Style, all eyes started to dart towards them.

"So much for blending in," Jisoo whispered.

"We can't help it. We're good looking people," Jin replied.

"Aish. Why do you have to wear only that, Lisa? Your bra is showing!" Jungkook kept pestering his wife because of her outfit.

"It's not a bra but a brassier. And it's a trend and I have a crop top over it. Please shut up or else I'll roast you alive."

"I miss my Irene..."

"Shut up, Tae. You'll live."

Just as the group went towards the entrance, a huge bouncer blocked the way.

"Are you on the list?"

"Tell PSY that MOBB is here." Mino smiled at the guy. His eyebrow raised and scanned the list.

"You can go in. But the others, they have to wait the line--"

"Mino! Bobby!"

"Hey there hyung!"

Psy, a middle-aged chubby man wearing a light blue suit and sunglasses walked out of the establishment. The bouncer immediately bowed at him.

"Long time no see." He then turned towards the girls. "I see you brought friends... wait a minute. Wayji? You girls are from Wayji?"

"Yes," Lisa said and smiled widely. "We're Blackpink--"

"Did someone say Blackpink?!" A stanger appeared behind the male witch. "Hwiparam? Hwiparam param param!"

"Heechul..." the older one glared at the guy. But he didn't even flinch. Instead, he walked up to the girls.

"Hi! I'm Heechul. I'm friends with Bigbang and I really wanted to be part of Wayji but they wouldn't take me in so I ended up in Esem--"

The men behind the girls suddenly went on fight mode. But Heechul immediately took back what he said.

"I left! I left with my group SuJu!"

"You keep stirring up trouble," Psy said rubbing his temple. "Anyways, let's go inside. I can sense that you guys aren't here to have fun."

LALICE

My mouth literally flew open as we walked in the club. All kinds of supernaturals swarmed the place. From goblins to banshees to griffins, all sorts of people like them crowded the place. It's like there was no war threatening their existence at all.

"Wow. I never knew that a place like this even existed..."

"Usually, there are humans here too," Jungkook said. I looked at him with an eyebrow raised. "Not that I come her often..."

"This is where he picks up girls," Taehyung whispered. But my husband heard it earning him a smack on his his head. "Ya!"

"I kinda figured that out already," I said as I eyed Jungkook who's sweating like he's in hell. The whole area's airconditioned, by the way. "Faithful my ass. He wouldn't even last a year without a booty call."

"I had needs!" He insisted.

I looked at Taehyung. We blurted out heaps of laughter while giving each other high-fives.

"And that is how you catch a fish," I said. "Right from its mouth."

"Well done. Well done."

We both still kept on laughing while Jungkook looked 100% pissed. Then it hit me.

"Seeing as Yoongi impregnated Jennie, wouldn't it be possible for you as well? From the girls you--"

"I don't shoot the load onside, if that's what you're implying," Jungkook cut me off. He was dead serious. Did our prank go too far? "Well aside from you, of course."

I rolled my eyes at him but my cheeks were burning.

"TMI, guys. TMI," Taehyung said raising both arms as if he was surrendering. He then left us and walked towards the others.

As soon as he left, Jungkook swiftly moved beside me and pulled me by my waist closer to his body.

"Enjoying yourself teasing me, doll?"

I grinned.

"Yes, yes I am."

It was his turn to roll his eyes. I tiptoed and kissed his cheek. He was shookt. I chuckled.

"Aww. Such a cute couple you both are!" Heechul commented. "Sorry but I have to cut your cheesiness. All your friends left towards the VIP area and I think you're both needed there."

"Oh, I see. Mianhe."

"It's fine." He smiled. "Oh and another thing."

We both looked back at him. "Hm?"

"Pyeong saengeun eopseo!" (**There's no forever!/Walang Forever!)

Then he flee. Savage.

As we walked in a the VIP lounge--where no one was actually around except us and Psy, I immediately sensed something different.

"Nullifying barriers," Psy answered my thought. "Don't worry. It's for our own safety."

I nodded but I'm not convinced.

"Relax, my dear," Psy assured Jennie. "You're not the first case to get pregnant with a vampire baby. Well, a halfling if we put it straight. But the problem here is conceiving the child. The nine months a normal human conceives a child is reduced to three when conceiving a halfling. That's why you're already experiencing pregnancy symptoms this early."

"So it's okay? There won't be any problem?"

"Well... the host mother usually dies because a vampire baby is like a parasite. It takes the life of its mother."

"What?!" Yoongi exclaimed. Loud gasps echoed.

"Well, figuratively, it kills a human mother since it literally breaks your bones during labor. If the mother's heart is strong enough and can manage to stay alive during the delivery, there's a slim chance of survival if her bones heal fast."

"No. We have to remove it." Yoongi said sternly. But Jennie strongly disagreed.

"There's still a chance of survival and I'm willing to take that for my child!"

"Not at the expense of your own life, Jennie!" Yoongi argued. "Look. I want our child to survive to but I'm not willing to risk your life--"

"What if she becomes a vampire too? After giving birth, I mean?"

All eyes darted towards me. Especially Jennie and Yoongi's.

"I was close to death when Jungkook turned me. Maybe if Jennie manages to keep her heart strong during delivery, Yoongi can turn her into a vampire. It's like cheating death itself!"

Everyone grew silent. Psy eyed me then smiled.

"That's quite a peculiar suggestion," he stated. "But it mught actually work. I've seen countless humans with far more injuries cheat death by turning into a vampire post-war. And I guess with Jennie being a witch, she's far stronger than any average human."

Jennie looked at Yoongi with pleasing eyes. The guy sighed then nodded.

"Fine."

Jennie squealed then hugged Yoongi tightly. Then she showered him kisses to our surprise.

"Oh, I forgot to mention," Psy interjected. "The host parent's emotions get very...surprising at times. She may have severe mood swings from time to time."

Poor Yoongi.

"I'm just curious," Jungkook suddenly said. "How can male vampires get someone pregnant? I mean, aren't we frozen or something?"

"Well, only your bodies are frozen. But your body functions are the same," he explained. "It's just that female vampires has frozen bodies making it difficult for conception. Though there was one time back in the 15th century, a certain female vampire became pregnant due to an incubus. The child was never found but it was believed that it got killed after its birth."

"Incubus? Isn't that a demon shapeshifter?"

Psy nodded. "That's why that child is a cursed one. It's a vampire halfling and his birth was foretold by one of the ancient oracles that meant the destruction of existence itself."

"Oracles? Do oracles still exist? I mean, I thought they were wiped out during the 12th century?"

"That's just a myth," Psy explained. "There's an oracle here in Gangnam."

"Who?"

"Her name's HyunA." Psy raised his hand and called someone from afar. A woman with an excellent S-line shaped body walked towards us. Behind her is a lanky man with gray hair. The two gives off this Bonnie and Clyde kind of vibe. "HyunA, these kids haven't seen an oracle yet. Kids, this is HyunA, oracle of Gangnam."

"Hey."

I swear, I can hear the boys swooning right now.

"I'm kinda the only oracle around right now 'coz my sisters left the coven," she explained. "By the way, this is Hyunseung. He's a goblin. The only one left too 'coz his brothers left the coven as well."

"Hey."

HyunA's eyes wondered around and she suddenly held on to Hyunseung. Her eyes literally lit.

"Doom is near in the face of a half but the blood of fire will save us in behalf.

Psy stood from his seat. HyunA blinked twice before looking at Hyunseung warrily.

"A halfling--I... I think a halfling will be the end of us!"

•o•o•

We literally stormed out of the club. They all think that the baby halfling inside Jennie's tummy is the one mentioned in the prophecy.

"It's not true, right?" Jennie asked Yoongi as he carried her. She sobbed. "My baby... my baby isn't dangerous. I-It's not--"

It's the first time I saw Jennie this vulnerable. During the fifty years we've been in Beulping together, she's always this strong, fearless witch. She doesn't show her emotions that easily. But now... I guess pregnancy does that.

"Don't worry, unnie," I said. "We'll protect you and the baby no matter what."

"Ne, unnie," Rosé seconded as she was being carried by Chanyeol. "I know the wolves will help too. Right oppa?"

Suho and Chanyeol nodded.

"Wayji will always have your back, Jen. You know that," Mino said as Bobby nodded.

"And I will bury those people alive who'll even try hurting you and our niece-to-be," Jisoo promised. "But I guess we have to plan things out and bring you somewhere secluded where other supernaturals can't find you."

"There's only one place and I don't know if we can still go there," Namjoon said. I think I know what he means.

"Beulping." The four of us said in unison.

"All of you vamps and Jen, go pack your things. I'll go with Bobby and Mino to Sajangnim to explain everything and give us permission to use Beulping--"

"We'll come too!" Rosé said. "I want to be there for my niece and unnie. Plus, we need to have more people to guard them. Beulping isn't 100% unpenetratable."

"I think that's a good idea," Suho said. "We'll head back home and meet you in your pent before the sun rises."

Namjoon nodded. The wolves went their separate ways as Bobby, Mino and Jisoo went theirs. Us vamps and Jen went towards the pent.

With Sooman still a threat to all of us a new problem adds up. We can't get any break now, can we?

I felt Jungkook hold my hand. I looked at him. He pulled me close to him and held me tight. A faint kiss on the forehead made me smile.

We can get through this. I'll be fine as long as he's with me.

Beulping

As the vampires, wolves and witches join forces to protect the unborn child of Yoongi and Jennie, they managed to enter Wayji's sanctuary unharmed.

With Hyunsik and Jinyoung's protection, the kids can now breathe freely. Well, they're trapped within the walls of Beulping but it's better than being chased by countless supernaturals.

"This is Beulping?" Taehyung said as his eyes roamed around. "Woah! It's like we're in another world!"

"Technically, we're in a different dimension but it's near," Rosé explained. "The manor has rooms upstairs and downstairs. I'll share with Jisoo unnie since Lisa's already married and I think Jungkook wouldn't want to be in a separate room."

"And Yoongi will be staying with Jennie for her protection," Jisoo continued. "The rest can choose who they'll stay with and where they want to stay--"

"We'll be using our old rooms," Mino said.

"Same here." Junhoe seconded.

Lisa and Jungkook settled in her and Rosé's old room. Their things were still kept in place making the vampire scan his wife's old things.

Then he saw pictures.

"So you and that Jinhwan are close, huh?"

Lisa grabbed the picture frame her husband was holding. If she knows him well, she's 100% certain that she won't hear the end of it.

"We trained together with the rest of iKon and Winner," she explained. "Of course we're close."

"But why do you only have a picture with him and not with the rest?"

"We didn't have any digital cameras of phone cams back then. Jinwoo oppa was with us that time and took our picture."

"Still you kept it. You even framed it."

Lisa rolled her eyes. Jungkook suddenly picked her up and with a few steps threw her on the bed.

"What the hell are you doing?!--"

"You. I'm gonna do you."

"What--"

Jungkook moved on top of his bewildered wife.

"What's with you, Kook? Ehat are you--"

"Shh. I'm gonna make you not want any other guy besides me. I'm gonna do you 'til you can't walk anymore."

Lisa's eyes widened as Jungkook leaned towards her and kissed her like there's no tomorrow.

Truthfully, the young witch did not have any issues whatnot about what her husband is planning on doing. His jealousy is kinda turning her on, really.

With a wave of her hand, the door to their room locked.

Jungkook smirked.

No holding back.
