[M] chapter ;)

~Byun Baekhyun~

Staring down at the red liquid hidden in the floppy bag behind Chanyeol's back, I grimaced at it while trying to pay attention to Jongdae. The family-doctor smiled in sympathy towards me, I could practically see the wheels turning in his head as he kept the stethoscope close to my chest in order to hear my heartbeat. My mate stood just behind him, watching Jongdae as he removed and found a new patch of skin that he hadn't rested the equipment yet. My stomach ached for food, a hunger that raged uncontrollably between my veins a strong drive pushing the desire to feast forward in my mind almost as if I had no other choice but to give into it. 

"Everything seems to be fine" Jongdae smiled, stepping back and taking his stethoscope from his ears in order to wrap it around his neck instead. "Your body has been reacting to the vampire blood in your system, it has healed the dislocated spine reconnect to your neck and skull so I'm not concerned about that right now" 

"How long until I go crazy?" I found myself asking, even though I didn't want to know the answer to that question. After a quick glance to Chanyeol I turned my attention solely to Jongdae who seemed hesitant in telling me what was on his mind. I was just about to dismiss Chanyeol when he spoke up, hushing my movements and thoughts using three simple words. 

"I can't tell" 

I felt my eyes close slowly as my lower lip slipped into my mouth as tears welled up in my eyes. I already knew that the venom of the vampire blood was beginning it's work on my body when the hunger was all I could think about. My fists clumped the bedsheets out of control, I wanted to overcome this animalistic trait that was desperate to claw its way out of my body. I wanted to think of the plans I needed to complete before my time on this earth was over, because there was no way that this infection would stop me from living the last few days, hours or minutes happily. Keeping that in mind, I withdrew lips from my teeth, allowed my hands to fall limp on top of the linen sheets and my eyes to open in the direction of my mate. Chanyeol's swollen eyes gave his emotions away even though he hadn't expressed them through words. He wasn't ready to loose me and I wasn't prepared to let him go just yet. 

"Is there any way that I can delay time?" 

"Hold off tasting human blood for as long as you can" Jongdae whispered looking down at his finger-tips instead of my eyes. "It will allow you to stay sane until the venom eventually takes you.." 

"Do you have a time limit if I follow that then?" 

"I have to say a day.. at least. The venom is spreading fast, it is only slowed by your resistance towards human blood, once you give into that desire the spreading will resume it's course faster" 

"I've heard that I'll become a full vampire if I take the blood is that true?" 

"Well yes" Jongdae nodded "you'll complete the transition from human to vampire by consuming the blood but you won't have long until the venom takes effect, then you won't have much time after that.. you'll start to loose your mind and even then we don't know what you could do, you'll be dangerous and no vampire would be able to stop you in that state" 

I slowly nodded my head, allowing the information to sink in to the best of my ability. Jongdae was dismissed by Chanyeol who knew that the doctor wouldn't be able to answer any more questions we could have, at this point everything was down to fate and destiny. Before he left, I watched as my mate passed him the blood bag he had prepared. The door closed leaving us alone and silent. 

"Please don't just stand there.." I whispered watching my mate through tear filled eyes. Chanyeol's head snapped towards me and within the blink of an eye he was before me on the bed, his hands cupping my face. "I know that this isn't what we expected and I'm sorry that I was stupid enough to think that a fake letter allowed me access to the garden after Sky warned me that no matter what happened I was not to go there" 

"You didn't know baby, I should have been with you but I was too focused on trying to figure out why our bond link that managed to survive throughout all these years when you weren't even born then"

"Chanyeol answer me honestly.. are you one hundred percent sure that you never felt our link break?" 

I watched as Chanyeol's chest heaved in a breath, his hands falling to my neck where they tickled the skin. "I can swear to you on all my years of life, on Suho's life and my entire families that I have never felt our mate bond break, Baekhyun before I met you I always thought you were also a vampire from a very young age I considered it so it came quite a shock to me that you were very much human" 

"But I'm not am I?" 

"I don't know what you ae sweetheart, but I promise you I will do everything in my power to find out the secret you hide" I could hear the chuckle in his voice as a small smile cracked on his lips. "And before you open that pretty mouth of yours protesting, I'm not going to give up on this, not unless you don't want me to" 

"I just want you to stay with me.. make me feel like I'm not one minute closer to death"

3rd person p.o.v~

Soft nimble touches travelled through the bright red hair of the vampire who pressed kisses against the pale white skin of the latter who shivered under the pleasure generating throughout his body. The plush lips pressing kitten kisses against his stomach and chest made Baekhyun's waist rise off the bed, his body in desperate need of touch after the colossal hands of his mate trailed down his sides sending nothing but electrical shocks that drove him crazy in all the right ways. 

"You know when I said to make me feel like I'm not close to death I didn't expect you to do this" Baekhyun gushed, his eyes closed as Chanyeol chuckled against his bare skin. The latter raised his head freezing in his movements making Baekhyun whimper under the lack of contact. "That wasn't an invitation to stop" 

Baekhyun groaned when Chanyeol suddenly stood up from the bed, his face burrowing into the pillows as he pulled the covers over his very naked body. "Stop your whining if we're going to do this, we're doing it the right way" 

Baekhyun felt a shiver run down his back as he flipped onto his side, peeking his eyes over the covers to spot his mate hidden behind the opened overheard cabinet in the bathroom connected to the bedroom. He could see the tanned flesh pecking out from Chanyeol's bare torso, his sweatpants hanging on his pelvis making his look like a five course meal in Baekhyun's mind. 

Covering his blush just in time to see his mate come back from the bathroom, with a small bottle of clear liquid and a box of condoms. "You know I never thought I would be doing this in my childhood room, maybe if we were in Seoul this would be a lot different.." 

"Hey, if you want to take those family pictures down from the walls I don't mind" Baekhyun teased flashing the taller a large grin, before pushing the covers away just in time for Chanyeol's leg to rest against the bed pulling him onto the mattress. Baekhyun blushed as Chanyeol grinned down at him placing the materials they would need on his pillow while allowing himself to sink lower pressing his lips against the smaller's. 

"The only thing on my mind right now is you Baekhyun" Chanyeol whispered against the smaller's lips, their eyes locked as their breathes mingled together. "And you will forever be on my mind no matter what happens between us, we're living in the moment right?" 

When words failed, nodding and tears of joy flowed down Baekhyun's cheeks as he desperately pulled his mate back into their kisses. Chanyeol's gentle fingers swept the discarded tears away with the pad of his thumb, his own throat closing up in attempt to hold back his own emotions. Feeling the smaller shift beneath his body Chanyeol's eyebrows furrowing as his eyes tightened closed further feeling the soft nimble fingers of Baekhyun's pressing a condom into his palm. They broke apart, their eyes meeting together in quiet understanding. Chanyeol sniffed and nodded, turning his gaze to the square packet in his palm, Baekhyun watched through water-logged eyes as Chanyeol tore the packet open and shift between his legs in order to pull down his sweatpants. 

Baekhyun kept his eyes on Chanyeol's face when he wrapped his hands around the semi-hard dick before him. The giant gasped at  the foreign touch, but his body quickly relaxed when he met Baekhyun's eyes. He stared down at his mate's flushed face, the bright pink blush sweeping across Baekhyun's cheeks as his tears were not yet willing to fall. Chanyeol gulped feeling the pleasure in his groin coil under Baekhyun's touch, his breath hitching. The smaller halted his wrist when Chanyeol grabbed it softly placing the now unwrapped condom into Baekhyun's hand, the smaller got to work placing it on his mate, their eyes never once leaving each other almost as if they had been in a trance since the beginning. 

Before his mate was even finished applying the condom Chanyeol reached forward and took hold of the lube, smearing his first three fingers in the gel before moving between Baekhyun's legs. The smaller as if anticipating the gesture, spread his legs wider opening himself up to his mates taking. Chanyeol leaned over the small body below him, his lips finding Baekhyun's again who was more than happy about the distraction from the sudden sharp pain Chanyeol delivered after gently pushing a digit inside. 

A soft grunt echoed throughout the air as Baekhyun grew used to the penetration, his body gently rocking against Chanyeol's as another finger was entered. Chanyeol made sure to keep the pace steady and gentle knowing that this was the first time that either of them had done anything like this. By his third finger, Baekhyun started responding to his kisses a lot easier and without soft pants of air escaping through his nose. When he felt like he had prepared his mate as much as he could Chanyeol pulled himself away. Baekhyun licked his lips clean of his mate's salvia savouring Chanyeol's taste. 

At first it felt like his insides were burning, like he was being spilt apart but the soft kisses to his neck and chest kept him rooted in the moment and the air around him. Baekhyun could feel Chanyeol throughout his entire body, their chests pressed together, the taller's hair tickling his chin as he connected and peppered kisses along Baekhyun's collarbones, their legs tangled together and of course the overwhelming feeling of being full, the amazing feeling of sharing space and time with the man he loved. 

When Baekhyun's fingers tangled into his hair yet again, Chanyeol took that as the gesture to begin moving. The rhythm slow and deep, their movements gentle and un-rushed because they had all the time in the world right now. They were together, in each other's arms making love under the safety of their beating hearts and bathed breaths. Baekhyun's hooded eyes rolled to the back of his head in pleasure as they both expressed something between them that was otherwise otherworldly. Chanyeol's soft moans drifted through the air, his hips never passing the sent rhythm too afraid that they would loose themselves in the pleasure and not value the possible only moment they would have being as imitate as they were now. 

Smiling up at the giant Baekhyun took those colossal hands he loved so much and placed them on his groin, mentally telling Chanyeol that it was okay to touch him. The vampire chuckled deeply before gently pumping Baekhyun's dick, watching intently as it sent the smaller onto cloud nine. 

"Chanyeol" he moaned, feeling his climax coming like a tidal wave. Chanyeol shifted his hips and found himself driving deeper into his mate's warmth hitting against a bundle of nerves that had the smaller seeing white. Seeing the hot facial expression Baekhyun pulled when he finally came made Chanyeol bust his load too. 

They stayed like that for a second while they came down from their orgasm high. When they were finally able to get their breath back Chanyeol slowly withdrew himself out of Baekhyun's warmth, taking the condom off before tossing it in the trash. Baekhyun welcomed the new warmth that formed behind him as Chanyeol fell next to him, he smiled as he felt an arm wrap around his waist holding him close as sleep overcame them. 

Meanwhile~

"But sir what is it that you hope to achieve by this?" the servant voiced out following his leader out of the airport and towards a waiting black land rover. "I don't think the Prince will be happy with you appearing after what just happened to his mate.." 

"That is exactly why I feel like I must come Jeffery, I need to see my son suffer the lost of his mate before I tell him the news of his marriage to Samantha, the daughter of my most loyal businessman" Kris smiled, patting the servant on his shoulder as he rushed to open the door for the king. 

"But I thought that the Prince was entitled to his mate, your people won't particularly like the fact that you denied him that right" 

"My people don't want to see my son on the throne, those other vampires who think that he would be a better king than I ever was will never get to experience that because I will make Chanyeol ruthless, they'll be begging me to take the throne back" 

"Absolutely sir, I'm sorry for assuming things" Jeffery bowed before closing the van door and hopping into the driver's seat to start the drive towards the mansion that he had no clue how to find.
