A day late but heyyy 👩🏾‍💻

What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck. San chants repeatedly in his head trying to keep a straight face, stay still and most importantly not look down.

His eyes stayed firmly on the cool grey eyes of the man now stood in front of him. But the tension becomes too great to bear and so he looks at a tree to the side.

"Where are you headed?" His voice was smooth but a little deeper than San thought. It caused a chill to roll down his neck in a wave.

"Nowhere in particular. Just visiting. Sightseeing. Wherever the wind takes me" He repeats his rehearsed response for if and when someone would ask where he was going.

A brief silence settles and San felt himself grow even more uncomfortable because the man in front of him just stared. He could feel his alluring eyes run over him, his face, his features. Everything. San generates the will to look him back in the eyes no matter how intimidating.

"Do you even know where you're heading?" He finally speaks, this time with a little amusement behind his voice and pink lips curled up ever so slightly. The way his long dark bangs created just the perfect among of shadows on his face and highlighted his sharp features made San's stomach nearly do a flip. Damn he's attractive.. but he willed himself to stay on task.

"Not really. But I'll be ok" He blurts, stepping back in order to snap himself out of whatever hypnosis this werewolf placed on him. He begins dusting himself off and slips his knife back into his boot. Don't look at his dick. Don't look at his dick.

"What's your name?" He keeps pushing and San almost blurted out his real name. Almost. But he caught himself.

"Mujin. You?"

"Seonghwa"

San simply nods, not knowing what else to say. "I should uh, head back to the water fall. Left my things there. Sorry about attacking you" He directs the last sentence to the girl who was now standing beside the 2nd tan colored wolf. She simply shrugs and gives a half smile.

"You guys should head home, I'll catch up" Seonghwa turns to look at them and the girl gives him an amused knowing look before walking off through the trees. The wolf follows but not before looking back once. They were both gone and Seonghwa looks back to San.

"Those are my younger siblings. Sorry I was a bit aggressive earlier. I can get a little protective especially over Yeji, she's the youngest. I didn't hurt you did I?"

San waves it off. "No I'm fine. Barely felt a thing. I shouldn't have attacked her like that anyways" He scratches the back of his head, realization that were alone with one of them naked slowly settles in. He didn't know what to do with his hands.

"Can I escort you to my town? You can spend the night there or however long you want while you sightsee. Canterhaze province is quite big so you might be here a while"

"W-wow that's really nice of you. You really don't have to help me. I'm-" He stutters out taken back by his sudden generosity.

"I insist. My mom makes the best squirrel soup, you have to try it"

San sighs. He knew this boy wouldn't leave him alone unless he agreed so he nods. "Fine. But can you please put on some clothes?" He felt his cheeks heat up and gaze shift to the top of the trees behind Seonghwa.

The taller male looks down at himself. "Why? What's wrong?" He asks, a genuine tone of confusion in his voice.

"You're naked and.." He stops himself and just waves his hand to dismiss the thought then he turns and starts towards the water fall. "Nevermind. I need to grab my things"

Nakedness was something werewolves grew up with and it wasn't something they inherently saw as sexual. He'd seen his family and friends naked since birth and vice versa. It was a normal part of their culture because it made shifting easier without the displeasure of ripping through clothes. It was something outsiders like San for example often found awkward though.

San glances behind him and saw that Seoghwa had shifted back to a wolf and was trailing close behind him. What the hell did I get myself into? How am I supposed to find the wolf-witch hybrid with this guy breathing down my neck?

He tries to look at the bright side. He's lived here all his life so he knows Boulia like the back of his hand. Well at least this specific province in Boulia. I could use that knowledge to my advantage.

Finally they arrive at the waterfall and San grabs his bags and turns to the wolf that stood a few feet away, watching and waiting for him.

"Ok. Where to now?" San asks and Seonghwa angles his head and begins walking back into the forest as if to say 'follow me'. And San does, hoping he doesn't regret any of this.

They arrive at the gates of a quaint town and wolf Seonghwa walks behind a tree where he knew he left his clothes before going hunting earlier. He shifts back to human, bones cracking loudly as he turned it made San wince, and because he had his back to San the vampire had a clear view of his lean back, proportional physique and bare ass as he began dressing.

San bit the inside of his cheek and immediately turned around. He was sure he was red. "Ok" Seonghwa says as he hopped over a log then fluffing up his messy hair. "We can go in now. We arent allowed to be in our wolf forms in town" He shrugs and pushes the heavy gates open waiting for San to walk through before closing it.

The place was nice. Streets lined with buildings and people. It was fairly rowdy and just filled with life. Everyone seemed so friendly and there would be at least one person that smiled and greeted him as he walked by, every minute. Already so different from Naex.

They reach Seonghwa's home and the first person he sees is a long haired boy who was in the middle of eating a kabob on the living room couch but froze at the sight of San behind his older brother. His eyes dancing between Seonghwa and the stranger.

"Hyune, is dad home?" Seonghwa pulls off his shoes at the door and San follows suit.

"Uhh.. no. What's.. going on?" The boy sits up straighter, a look of confusion on his face as he eyes San.

"I invited him to stay as long as he wants" San saw how the boy's face twists in objection so he immediately speaks up.

"I'll be gone in the morning" His voice cuts.

"Mujin, this my brother Hyunjin. Hyunjin, Mujin" San nods curtly. He must be the tan colored wolf from the forest, he thinks to himself. He shifts his gaze away from Hyunjin's wary ones before looking around the place. A fairly large sized home with elegantly carved wooden furniture and other decorative pieces around the house. He figured they probably were of upperclass or at the very least, upper middle class.

"Hyunjin where the hell did you put my hair soap?" A familiar female voice echoes through the house. San recalled Seonghwa saying her name is Yeji. She descends down the stairs and into the main room where she spots San seated in the kitchen with a hungry Seonghwa digging through the food storage.

"The fuck?" She arches a brow at San. "What's he doing here?"

Seonghwa stands up straight, mouth stuffed with the leftover dried goat meat he found in a bag at the very back of one of the shelves. "He's schtaying fwor a cup pull nights (he's staying for a couple nights)" Seonghwa says through the food in his mouth.

"Just one night" San corrects. "I'll be outta your hair first thing in the morning"

Yeji tsks at her brother. "You know mom's gonna be annoyed"

"Yeah well when is she not?" Seonghwa says, a bit more clearly as he swallows the food then reaches in the bag for another piece.

"You're a dumbass" Hyunjin adds from his spot on the couch, laying back down and nibbling at his kabob.

"Say that again" Seonghwa playfully threatens.

"I can leave if you want? I don't mean to cause any problems" San stands up and Seonghwa and Yeji say "no" at the same time as Hyunjin's "yes".

"No, stay" Yeji starts, grinning at him. "I like you and clearly Hwa oppa does as well so feel free to stick around longer" Seonghwa shoots her a look, face reddening slightly.

"The hell does that mean?"

She simply winks and turns back to Hyunjin. "Where's my hair soap?"

"Used it up" He snickers and she throws a small throw pillow at him which he ducks with ease while laughing like an evil mastermind. "You dick. Go down to the market and go get me a new one now" She whines and Seonghwa takes that opportunity to lead San upstairs letting the two youngest continue their bickering.

"It's usually like this with them." Seonghwa groans as they make their way up the stairs, the voices of the arguing siblings getting muffled the farther away they got.

San couldn't help but smile. It was kinda cute seeing their relationship even though he barely knew these people.

"This the guest room. You can stay here" Seonghwa pushes open the door to reveal a medium sized bedroom with a bed and dresser. The bed was neatly made and a simple wooden dresser along the wall with a stack of books on it. Other than that the room was empty.

"There's a closet here" Seonghwa walks inside and towards a slender door. He opens it to reveal a little closet with hangers hooked on the pole. "And this door leads to a balcony" He pushes some curtains to the side to reveal a big wooden sliding door which he pulls open and steps out into a charming little balcony space with 2 chairs and a mini table.

The place was already a lot more than he needed or even wanted. He smiles with genuine gratitude. "Thank you so much. This is- this is perfect" He places his bags on the bed and joins him on the balcony.

Seonghwa couldn't help but return the dimpled smile. His lips, a perfect shade of pink, stretching up into a smile. "And I know you said you'd be leaving in the morning but... feel free to stay as long as you need" His grey eyes glistened ever so slightly. They weren't the penetrating icy grey unique to most vampires, no his was different. They were soft, warm, welcoming. San moves his head, shifting his gaze away and on the lively town.

"Thank you. I'll keep that in mind" He shoots another smile, this one quick and brief.

"I'll leave you alone then" Seonghwa pushes himself off the railing. "Oh and the bathroom is just down the hall and the last door on the left. If you have any questions or.. just wanna talk, my room's across the from yours" He briefly brushes his hair back from the slight wind that blows their already messy hairs then returns back inside.

With that the werewolf was gone and San was finally left with his thoughts. From that spot he could see most of the town and it was much bigger than he'd initially thought but still very much a small town. Streets looked like they were always busy even now that the sun was slowly starting to set and the people are kind.

But he couldn't stay there long. He already felt terrible having to lie to Seonghwa who only genuinely wants to help. He had a mission. And has to tunnel in on said mission. No distractions.

After a few more long seconds letting the breeze blow into his face and hair he made his way inside. It was getting late and Seonghwa's parents would likely be home soon so he decides to go get a proper clean up.

He quietly made his way down the hallway, following the werewolf's direction and careful not to draw any attention to himself. At the end of the hallway there was a door on the left and he opened it to reveal a large bathroom. Not as large as one he had to clean with a single toothbrush back in Naex once upon a time but it was big nonetheless.

San couldn't help but smile at the memory as he closes the door behind him. But slowly his smile fell and he felt his heart squeeze painfully. He leans on the door, a sudden weakness taking over him and he squeezes his eyes shut. "I miss you so much" He whispers under his breath.

He takes a deep breath then slaps both sides of his face, hard. He takes in his appearance in the mirror and noted his already chin length hair looked a bit longer but it was probably in his head seeing as hair doesn't grow an inch in only a few days. The white in his hair still as prominent as ever but he doesn't even bother hiding it anymore since he wasn't in Naex at the moment.

He strips and jumps into the shower sighing with relief as the hot water warmed him up and washed off all the dirt and grime. He helped himself to the large soap bar inside to give himself a proper wash one he hadn't gotten in a good while.

Eventually he gets out and reaches for one of the many neatly folded cloths on the dark oak shelf in order to pat himself dry. Just then the door bursts open and San instinctively pulls a cloth to cover his nakedness. His cheeks red probably from both the hot shower and having realized it was Seonghwa that walked in on him.

"I apologize. I didn't realize anyone was in here" The taller boy immediately calls through the door after having shut it once he saw it was occupied.

"I-it's o-ok" San sputters, then nearly face palmed. Great.
