The manor was quiet in the early hours of the morning, dawn was due to rise in the next couple hours and two people were still wide awake. Baekhyun had learnt that vampire were able to survive on at least a couple of days without sleep, which would more than likely prove useful in the coming weeks ahead of them. 

The new born stared out the window of the library, his body resting on top of the window ledge cuddled up in a large blue blanket. He pulled his phone out and snapped a picture of the scenery, the raindrops on the window making the captured moment that much more special. Through his newly found heightened senses Baekhyun was able to hear his mate in the hallway, approaching the room with a tray of goodies and clanking glasses. 

Turning his attention away from the window and towards the opening door, Baekhyun smiled as Chanyeol walked over the threshold with a hospital bag of blood and two wine glasses in hand. Baekhyun eyes them suspiciously before noticing the other bottles and biscuit packets on the tray, raising a brow in his mates direction he allowed the latter to organise the items on one of the tables before he spoke. 

"What's all this?" he questioned standing up from his seat and holding the blanket against his body, being near his mate made him subconsciously smile a grin that had Chanyeol's heart racing. "You must be really hungry after everything that happened today huh?" 

"You could say that" the taller laughed, pulling his mate into his embrace. Baekhyun welcomed the hug, his cheek pressing against Chanyeol's soft sweatshirt. The elder vampire chuckled at the nuzzling action the younger was doing against his chest, his sense of smell driving him wild. "I know that you haven't been eating or drinking anything since you had the human blood." 

"Is that bad?" he asked, turning his head backwards so that he could stare at his mate's face for a reaction. "Is it weird that I'm not craving it as much as I thought I would be?" 

"You just have extremely good control over it" Chanyeol laughed pressing his lips against Baekhyun's forehead. "We had to learn at a young age how to control the blood thirst but, here you are a newborn with incredible self-control." 

"Maybe that's my primary power" Baekhyun joked shrugging his shoulders in a mocking action to himself. "Maybe my own power is incredible self-control" 

"Wow so how many is that now? Three?" Chanyeol wondered tilting his head to the side, watching as his mate laughed at the joke. "You can hide us away from the rest of the world, you can blind people and now you have strange self-control towards blood?" 

"Jealous?" Baekhyun smirked looking at his mate with a teasing glint in his eye. "You can only burn people alive" 

"That's more than enough for me" Chanyeol admitted earning himself an amused kiss from his mate. "Besides at least I know that my power can protect you.." 

"You don't need to protect me anymore Channie" Baekhyun whispered, his nimble fingers crawling up to his mate's cheeks. The elder relaxed under the touch, his eyes closing as he listened to the soothing voice of his smaller. "I'm stronger and fully capable of killing or seriously damaging people." 

"I don't doubt that" Chanyeol chuckled, pressing his lips against the younger's opened palm. "You proved that to me when you terrified my father baby." 

"One of the best moments of my life" Baekhyun beamed a small white gleam surrounding his head making Chanyeol whistle at the sight. "He thinks I'm dead now, doesn't he?" 

"He was surprised to see you still up and kicking when he first arrived, that I will agree with." Chanyeol nodded, pulling himself away from their embrace in order to pour them both a drink from the hospital blood bag. "He knew you were strong because of the human blood you drank but at the end of the day he believes that you aren't capable of surviving the remainder of the transition. So yes, I believe that he thinks you're dead." 

"Well isn't that a good thing?" 

"I suppose so," Chanyeol shrugged, his fingers wrapping around the bottom of the wine glass. Baekhyun accepted the crystal into his hand, careful to hold it properly since it looked rather expensive. "Kris has an army with him since he's the king, I know he wants to keep the throne despite what his advisers think. They want me on the throne and Kris to take a step down to be with Suho since he's the longest ruler in all of our history."

"Has he been a good one?" Baekhyun mumbled looking up from the rich red substance in the glass to his mate. "To his people, not for messing around when he's married." 

"No" Chanyeol admitted hanging his head in guilt. "As you know he has a rather explosive temper and he often takes it out on his subjects, he enjoys battles and often sleeps with his business men's wives or daughters." 

"Ew" Baekhyun gagged, rising the glass to his lips. Although the taste of the blood didn't quite settle his already upset stomach, after swallowing a gulp of the liquid Baekhyun kindly placed the glass back down onto the table. "So, the whole reason that he wants to stay in power is so that he can have sex and fight people?" 

"When you say it like that it sounds stupid." 

"That's because it is stupid" Baekhyun snapped back his eyes blazing in anger. He was slowly beginning to lose his patience with the so called 'king of darkness.' "Can we change the topic before my blood turns boiling please?" 

"Colin will be travelling with us back to Korea" Chanyeol thought without a hitch, Baekhyun's head snapping towards his mate in shock. Chanyeol laughed at his facial expression, mouth agape, eyes so wide that they could fall out at any moment. "But obviously he'll have to join us wherever we run off too first." 

"Oh my god" Baekhyun gasped rushing to hug his mate tightly around the waist yet again. Chanyeol's eyebrows furrowing together in confusion but he quickly hugged back enjoying the attention. "You're allowing my ship to set sail!" 

"What?" 

"Skylar has a crush on Colin and she is going to test my theory tomorrow by kissing him." 

"WhAt?! You gave my baby sister permission to kiss him?!" 

"Okay calm down" Baekhyun hissed shoving the latter away from him, his eyes widening at the sight of Chanyeol being thrusted into the air and landing against the furthest bookcase. "I'm so sorry!" he gasped running over and holding him close to his body, scanning his back for any injuries. "I haven't gotten used to this whole vampire change thing yet" 

"Yeah" Chanyeol grunted taking the smaller's hand to assist him in getting up from the floor. "That's pretty easy to notice by the way, guess we'll have our hands full with teaching you stuff huh?" 

Baekhyun's cheeks changed to a bright pink, Chanyeol's lips curling up in a teasing manner. "I'm sorry that I hurt you giant, I didn't mean it at all I just wanted to push you away only slightly!" 

"It's okay sweetheart, I'm not hurt but you need to learn that you're a lot stronger than anyone in this house right now. New born vampires are quite the handful since they haven't grown up with the traits." Baekhyun placed his hands against Chanyeol's chest, pushing as gently as he could. His eyes widened in surprise as his mate was only thrusted a step backward, Chanyeol's proud smile making his stomach flip in butterflies. "There you go baby, look at you already.. such a fast learner" 

"I want to learn more!" he shrieked, taking the blanket off his shoulders. The clear excitement making the once serious atmosphere more relaxed and playful. Chanyeol watched as Baekhyun's focused closely on the books lining the bookcases upstairs, he could see them from his spot in front of the smaller so he wondered how well his mate's vision had become. "Wuthering Heights, The Great Gatsby, The Odyssey, Of Mice and Men, The Grapes of Wrath and The Art of War right?" 

Chanyeol laughed and nodded his head, Baekhyun jumped up and down in amazement. His hands clapping quietly against each other, keeping in mind that even though he was practising his new 'skills' there was still many vampires sleeping throughout the mansion -who also had sensitive ears. "Well done baby" 

"Try the sound one" Baekhyun announced, turning his back to his mate. Chanyeol stared at his boyfriend's backside, his lower lip being taken under his teeth as his eyes dropped lower. Chanyeol whispered the words, his voice barely audible. Baekhyun's ears straining in an attempt to a simple idea of what it could be. By the time the elder vampire had finished his rather along confession Baekhyun had managed to catch almost every word.  

Before he could register what was happening Chanyeol found himself pressed against one of the bookcases, his shirt being torn off his body by the suddenly fierce Byun Baekhyun. His mate watched in surprise and slight pride as Baekhyun took control, pressing his lips against the taller's in a passionate smooch. 

"Bold of you to say such things" Baekhyun whispered against his lips, their foreheads touching. "Where did you get such confidence mister?" 

"Oh you know, when I finally got you to love me" Chanyeol grinned bending low and taking his mate's legs into his grip, lifting him up and onto his waist. Baekhyun squealed tilting his head backwards allowing his mate full access to his neck. "You do love me right?" 

Baekhyun giggled, the soft sucking on his neck dulling his mind for a moment before he answered honestly. "You set my heart on fire" Baekhyun joked, Chanyeol shaking his head at his mate's terrible attempt of making fun of his power. 

Taking his mate by surprise Chanyeol slowly allowed Baekhyun to slip against his torso, their bodies gridding against each other as Baekhyun was brought closer to his level. The new-born's lips pulling up into a smirk feeling the poking at his butt. "You light up my world" 

"Okay that's enough" he whispered with a grin before he brought their lips together again, silencing any attempt of agreement. Chanyeol turned them around and pressed his mate against the bookcase, Baekhyun head hitting against the pine wood. They could hear each other's bathed breaths and could feel the latter's heart thumping harshly against their chests, Baekhyun truly shocked about the new power while Chanyeol just chuckled. 

~*~

Baekhyun grunted as he turned over onto his side, his eyes crinkling under the bright light of the sunshine. After having turned his back to the window, Baekhyun smiled and snuggled further into his mate's hold. Chanyeol's arms naturally wrapping themselves around Baekhyun's waist pulling him closer to his chest, all the while staying deep in dreamland. 

They lay like that for a few moments more until Baekhyun finally decided that they should wake up to prepare for the rather long day ahead of them. Gently placing his hand over his mate's decorated chest Baekhyun snickered quietly, his fingers tracing the outline of one of the beautiful purple hickeys that had yet to disappear. Glancing down at his own chest Baekhyun blushed noticing just how painted in blue and purple he was, surprised that the mark haven't yet disappeared. He wondered if they would be permanently visible on his skin like the other gash on his neck from the time Chanyeol bit into it in front his entire family.  

"Good morning honey" Chanyeol grinned twisting himself around so that he was lying on top of his mate, Baekhyun's shocked expression making him crack a giggle. "Did you sleep well?" 

"Like a baby" Baekhyun grinned looping his arms around Chanyeol's neck, the taller gently placing his hands on either side of the smaller so that he didn't put all his weight on his boyfriend. "How did you sleep giant?" 

"Even though we only slept for three hours I have to admit that it was beautiful" Chanyeol chuckled, allowing his head to fall forward so that their lips brushed against each other. Baekhyun humming in pleasure, rubbing his foot up and down his mate's leg. "You ready for today?" 

"No" Baekhyun answered trustfully, his head shaking from side to side on the pillow making his hair stand on end. Chanyeol chuckled and tried to contain the mess but it was obviously a mistake, the more he tried to move the hair back the more Baekhyun laughed and moved around again. "Do you have an idea of where we should go?" 

"I was thinking Scotland" Chanyeol admitted, falling down next to his mate and allowing Baekhyun's head to rest against his chest. "It's a lot like here, big open fields, rich history and amazing music. Obviously Kris hasn't had a touch there otherwise I wouldn't have suggested it but I'm considering the other possibilities." 

"What about Italy?" Baekhyun wondered, turning so that he looked up at his mate. Chanyeol glanced down at the boy on his chest, Baekhyun's hands holding up his head so that his eyes met his mate's. The elder vampire's eyebrows furrowed in confusion, Baekhyun releasing a laugh as he shook his head. "It's a book vampire book thing don't worry about it." 

"No come on I want to hear about it" Chanyeol commented fixing the pillow below his head, Baekhyun's eyes sparkling in the morning glow. "Come on baby tell me all about the vampire you think I am." 

"Well your name is Edward Cullin you are a vampire that sparkles in the sun" Baekhyun giggled watching the sudden horrified expression pull itself onto Chanyeol's face. "and seems to be battling for the love of a girl named Bella who is having a rather hard time deciding between you and a werewolf named Jacob." 

"Okay?" Chanyeol nodded slowly, his lips pursing together forming a small line. "I don't see the common sense here.." 

"Oh right in the second book he went to Italy to try and kill himself because he didn't want Bella to be in danger even though when she tried to kill herself she was able to see glimpses of him so the entire movie she did that until he thought she actually killed herself and that's why he tried to kill himself." Baekhyun explained with a smile knowing that he didn't need to take a breath after it. Chanyeol stared at his mate with a dropped jaw, his eyes blinking every so often making Baekhyun cock a brow. 

"What?" 

"I didn't understad the plot either but it was fun to watch, my favourite is Breaking Dawn part two." Baekhyun grinned, reaching forward and pressing his lips against Chanyeol's cheek. 

"Wait how any movies did this make?" 

Baekhyun took a moment to think, his fingers gently brushing around themselves as he counted. "Five" he answered watching as Chanyeol's jaw dropped yet again. 

"Humans are really uncultured about us aren't they?" Chanyeol muttered wrapping his arms around Baekhyun's neck and pulling him closer. The newborn grinning up at him and nodding his head. 

"Yep we were, although I gotta admit I was team Jacob for awhile until I met you." Baekhyun admitted with a giggle, Chanyeol's lips opening in a gasp. He felt his mate's arms fall off his body and rest against the bedsheets. 

"That's why you asked me if I was a werewolf after the shower accident" Chanyeol stated rolling his eyes as Baekhyun pouted up at him. "If I was a wolf would you love me more?" 

"Chanyeol look at my chest" Baekhyun deapanned using his boyfriend's waist as support to push himself into the air. "You might be a vampire but you are a total different sort of species in the bed, you know if you acted like the way you did last night when I was still human I might have actually died from the pleasure." 

"Don't tempt me" Chanyeol smirked pushing himself up so that he could press his lips against his boyfriend's. Baekhyun welcomed the kiss with a smile, his legs wrapping around Chanyeol's waist as he felt Chanyeol's arms wrap around his wasit. Their bodies were pressed against each other, Baekhyun running his finger's through the elder's hair tossing around until he got a grunt in response. 

"We need to prepare to leave Chanyeol" Baekhyun laughed pulling away, only to feel his neck be attacked with kisses and soft sucking. "I'm sore after last night we went a little to wild.." 

"I knew I should have used the condom and lube" the elder pouted, gently rubbing his fingers into his mate's lower back. "I'll carry you around today if you want me too I have no objections to it at all." 

"Okay" Baekhyun nodded his head, his lips pressing agaisnt his mate's forehead. Chanyeol's eyes closing at the gesture, his heart swelling at his sweet boyfriend. "You'll be my slave for the day because my ass is killing me and it's all your fault." 

"Hey what would happen if you're pregnant?" Chanyeol wondered glancing down at his mate's bare stomach, a small smile developing on his face at the thought. 

"You really want kids don't you" Baekhyun whispered holding his boyfriend's hand to his stomach, his eyes wide as Chanyeol nodded his head. "Chanyeol.." 

"No no don't ruin the moment Baekhyun" Chanyeol groaned shaking his head from side to side. "I would be honoured to have a child with you, although they will be taking the throne after me.." 

"What happens if I'm one of the ones that can't have kids, I mean that's what Jongdae said not every guy can birth children in the vampire community.." 

"Babe if you can't have children that's okay with me, we can adopt a child or better yet just look after Skylar like she's one of our own" he laughed, his body trembling against his mate's. "Besides it would benefit me in the end anyway, we wouldn't be pressured into reproducing for the throne which would have happened if you could." 

"Really?" Baekhyun asked earning a nod in return. "Who would get the throne if we cant have a child?" 

"Sehun" Chanyeol explained with a sigh. "Jongin is the kings bastard son and Sehun is the queens but he has more claim to the throne than Jongin does." 

"What that makes no sense, they're both bastards so how does that work?" 

"Our people love Suho more than Kris who is the true heir to the throne, when he married Suho it was obvious that the perople valued him over my father so if it came down to Jongin or Sehun they would chose the queen's bastard." 

"How does Jongin feel about that?" 

"He's fine with it, both of my brothers don't want the throne and never have. It's like a curse in my family if you're on it I guess, I never wanted it but since I was the first-born I'm taking one for the team." 

"Well if I can have children" Baekhyun whispered repositioning himself on his mate's lap, his fingers looping around Chanyeol's neck. "You sure tried hard to get me pregnant last night" 

His boyfriend rolled his eyes and tightened his arms around Baekhyun's waist pulling him closer if that was even possible at their already close distance. Chanyeol breathed a sigh of relief pressing their lips together for a brief moment before pulling away agan. 

"Okay so let's get up before I try again!" he shouted earning a laugh from his boyfriend and a nod to the head. Baekhyun stood up first, wrapping one of the blankets around is body so that he wouldn't need to go around naked when he got his clothes. Chanyeol staring at his body for a moment smiling happily as Baekhyun glanced over his shoulder at the boy. 

"Like the view?" he wondered pulling his robe on as the blanket fell onto the ground, his legs the only part of his body that could be seen naked against the white walls of his room. 

"I need to see more of it" Chanyeol demanded clapping his hands like a stereotypical prince, ordering his subjects around with the snap of his fingers. 

"Oh is that right my Prince?" Baekhyun wondered narrowing his eyes at Chanyeol from afar, his mate secretly loving the fact that his boyfriend had managed to notice his play almost right away. "Well I'm sorry my kind sir but the queen is expecting my pressence this morning and I would hate to make a bad first impression." 

"Like fainting due to my brother in law draining you of your blood wasn't the worst thing that happened to you?" Chanyeol laughed slipping himself out of the covers and onto the floor, his body shimmering in the morning sunlight. Baekhyun's cheeks covered in a faint pink blush, as he glanced down at his mate's glory. Chanyeol making it obvious by walking closer and wrapping his arms around his waist. "What I would give to be able to spend the rest of the day with you in bed cuddled up and watching movies" he whispered. 

"We can watch Twilight" Baekhyun laughed watching as his boyfriend's face shrivelled at the thought. "Or maybe not" 

"We'll see" Chanyeol chuckled pressing his lips against Baekhyun's forehead, before stepping out of the way and started getting dressed. "I think I'll need to mentally prepare myself for that one.."

Baekhyun's laugh filled up the room as he nodded his head in agreement, his mate would most definitely need to prepare to see what the human thought he looked like.

Meanwhile:

"Congratulations Mrs Lee you're pregnant, I think the king will be very happy to hear of the news" the doctor grinned from ear to ear, his gloved hands pulling out a small notebook.

"Must the king know everything about my life?" The woman muttered, carelessly throwing her backwards on her bed. "It's not like my baby is his."

"You know the king has a underlining plan for all the children of his business associates, I wouldn't expect you to disrespect his wishes now when you've been such a loyal follower."

"Do not question my adoration for our king, he is the one true ruler of our species and his son should know his place. All I'm saying is that I don't want my baby involved in his plans."

"Your husband seems to think differently" the doctor tsked shaking his head as he left the room, briefcase in hand.

Mrs Lee stared after her family doctor, flinching when the door slammed closed behind him.

No, she thought. There was no way that the king would use her baby for any of his plans.
