Chaeyeon's POV

"You still havent decide? Come on.. Be like us.." The girl, which is I guess is Eunbi hold my chin, I resist by moving my face away, she tied me here on a chair like a kidnaped person.

"N-No.. Why are you even doing this to us..? W-We just want to get Chaewon back!" I shout, she pause for a moment before she laugh then her face turn serious.

"Chaewon was never yours nor belong to humans.. Chaewon was one of us so she is just coming back home-" I cut her.

"H-Have you asked her is she wants to come back? The girl just lure her here! Its not her decision to come back-" A hand meet my cheek.

"You talk too much and that is what I dont like.." She walk to a table as she grab a glass drinking from it.

"You just saw your friends and you become so brave.. What happend to the Chaeyeon who was surrendering to me a few minutes ago?" She sat on a chair not that far to me.

"And if I surrender.. You will free them..?" I said looking at her, she place her glass down as she keep her attention to me.

"We can negotiate it.." She added, I gulp as I breathe heavy before speaking, its now or never, I have to save the kids.

"Just free Chaewon and the others.. I am willing to stay here.." I said, she look at me suprised but then it changed into a smirk.

"Brave soul.." She stood up clapping her hands.

One clap. She was walking towards me.

Second clap. The smirk on her face is still on her face that is really making me scared more.

Third clap. She is already in front of me leaning her face so close to mine, a few centemeter void is seperating mine and her lips. As if she have not kissed me.

"You know.. I really like your braveness.. Only a few people can do that in front of a monster.." My eyes was fixed on hers, I can already feel her breathing so close to mine.

"You are turning red.." Her smile got widen more as the gap narrow. I did not even notice I was blushing, why? Only a few people manage to say that to me, straight up saying they like me.

"And so-" The gap was suddenly not existing as her cold lips sealed my warm one. I honestly have mix feelings towards this, anger, frustration, joy? Love? I dont understand anymore.

"Chaeyeon!" The door flew open and it was Yena, Eunbi slowly move away smiling, why is she still happy when my friends found me.

"Y-Yena!" I manage to shout still grasphing for air.

"S-She is not here too.. Just where is she..?" My eyes widdened when Yena just close the door again.

"Your friend maybe a vampire but she cant still feel hidden presence around.. She still need practice.." Eunbi move away as she fix her clothes a bit.

"Excuse me as I need to shut them up.." Eunbi glance at me before walking towards the door.

"P-Please! Dont hurt them!" I shout, she pause while holding the doorknob before speaking.

"I cant promise anything.." Eunbi really is so evil. I even made a negotiation but she still doesnt agree, if they got hurt, I will never forgive myself.. I heard the door opened and she spoke, added.

"But for you I will try to.." The door then close shut.

'H-Huh...?'

       
Chaewon's POV

"Nothing.. No one is on the rooms.." Yena said panting, we all seperate as we visit every single room existed on the top floor of the house but even a shadow of Chaeyeon, Eunbi and Wonyoung cant be seen.

"Tsk.. Where did she took Chaeyeon-unnie.." I said clenching my fist, we cant even rest for a second because I am sure Eunbi will do something to her.

"Calm down.. We wont be able to think clear if we got swallowed by our own emotions.." A hand hold my clenched one, it was Minju.

"O-Okay.." I breathe heavy as I tried to contain myself.

"What I remember is I saw a cat in front of Wonyoung when the door closed.." Yujin suddenly said, a cat.

"I think it was Wonyoung's pet.." Yena said, Minju agreed.

"Yes.. It was Maru.. But we cant find that cat too.."

"I hate this.." I said looking at the clock, it was still two AM, we still have four hours before sunrise.

"What will happend if it turned morning and we still cant find them..?" Yena ask, I look at Minju for consent, I cant even share too much information to them so I have to seek guidance from Minju and my memories are still not organized.

"We have to wait for another full moon to save the humans.. And the cure will be ineffective until then.." She explained, I look down as I try to develop another plan.

"B-But if a cure got created.. Are you willing to become a human..?" It was Yujin's turn to ask Minju, of course I already expect it will be hard for her to decide.

"I-I dont know.." She look down, from what I still remember, Minju was born as a vampire, even she is not a pure blood I am sure it will be hard for her to suddenly drop being what she is, for the respect for the parents who raised her and for Eunbi-unnie, since after her parents died, she stayed with me and Eunbi-unnie.

"Aish.. Let's not talk about that now.." I said trying to cancel out their thoughts.

"We have to concentrate on saving the humans first like Hyewon, Yena and Yuri.." I said, they surely wants to be human first so we have to do something to achieve it.

"Yuri wants to be human too?" Yena ask, Minju is the only one who knows everything about this house so she answers everything.

"She was also once a human.. But sadly, she have to be turned into a vampire to be able to live.. And that was what Sakura-unnie did.." Sakura-unnie was really the kindess vampire I have ever met, who would have thought she will save a human while still taking care of Wonyoung.

"She and Eunbi-unnie started to hate eachother because of Yuri.. Yes they both oppose everything but they eventually agreed into something.. Then when Yuri become part of our family, Sakura-unnie and Eunbi-unnie doesnt even seat on the same table except only on occassions.." Minju said, she even argue with the clan head just to save a human.

'Kkura-unnie..'

"Oh Kkura cant come to you anymore.." A voice interrupted us as Eunbi-unnie appeared, I get in front of them as I look at her.

"Where is Chaeyeon-unnie?"

"Oh Chaewon.. Not even a hello or hi?" Eunbi smirk as she walk toward us.

"P-Please Eunbi-unnie.. Spare them.." Minju said beside me but I stop her.

"Say that when she is already crossing my dead body.." I said glaring at her.

"Sadly I cant fight you.. Too bad I promised I wont hurt anyone.." She said, I look at her confuse.

"W-What..?"

"I came here to tell you all Chaeyeon exchange herself for you all.. You can freely leave this mansion after full moon.. Nobody will harm you.." She said while turning her back towards us.

"W-We are free..? Because of Chaeyeon-unnie..?" Yujin said.

"B-But.. Chaeyeon.." I heard Yena, I bite my lip.

"J-Just who did you make that promise to.-" Before I continue Wonyoung appeared.

"You broke my rule. They will not leave." She was staring at Eunbi-unnie.

"W-Wonyoung!"

"G-Guys stop Wonyoung!" Minju shout, that is when everyone run to her to seperate her and Eunbi-unnie as much as possible.

       
Yuri's POV

"I-I hope they are okay-" I was seated on the ground when I feel a strong presence in front of me making me stand on guard, a shadow then approach me.

"Move.."

"K-Kkura-unnie..?" My eyes widdened when her figure fully appear on my vision.

"Move away before I will force you myself..." She said already clenching her fist.

'K-Kkura-unnie...'
