I have a growing headache, so I'm sorry if there'll be some parts that won't make sense or something.

I'm just gonna yolo this.

I'm doing this early so I can sleep early afterwards, and so I can still update while I can before it gets worst and cancels everything.

So yuh.

"wait a minute, wait a minute." Jeno blinks furiously as he kept shaking his head, trying to process everything his boyfriend had spilled out from his mouth.

After telling the human boy, Jaemin felt a little relieved that he could spill everything out. He knows Jeno needs to be introduced to this part of his life whether if he could be in danger or not because of it.

Jeno has to know, especially when he's Jaemin's soulmate.

Besides, it's better to know and ask questions now than later. What if something happens and Jeno can't do anything because he doesn't know what to do since– Jaemin never really told him.

However, Jaemin hopes nothing bad will happen to his lover. Especially when he's a gullible, pretty, little thing which makes him a very easy target to anyone.

Yet, the vampire boy couldn't help but think that it was weird when Jeno didn't react the same like how he reacted to him before.

Is Jeno a little upset at him?

He doesn't know for sure, but maybe the human boy actually is. Although, Jaemin doesn't want to ask right now and might ask later instead.

After a moment of silence, Jeno looks at him and finally speaks up. "So... You're a royal vampire?" He asks for confirmation, making sure he's definitely not dreaming or hearing things.

He earns a nod as he asks again, "a vampire prince?" He tilts his head to the side.

Jaemin shakes his head at that.

Furrowing his eyebrows, Jeno pursed his lips as Jaemin corrects him. "Supposed to be the next king."

The human boy gapes his mouth, a little appalled but manages to continue talking normally. "But... You ran away... And left your people." He slowly said.

Sighing, Jaemin takes Jeno's hands in his and squeezes them. "I have my reasons." He mumbles, almost not wanting to say it because he knows his boyfriend isn't going to let this slide.

And he was right.

"And what are they, Jaemin hyung?" The human boy asks, the same level of tone Jaemin currently has as he inches closer to the vampire boy.

Pursing his lips, Jaemin hesitates if he should answer him or not. Yes, he did plan on telling Jeno his life story, but he didn't plan on admitting something he even doesn't want to admit to himself about.

After missing a beat, Jeno pouts and crawls over to Jaemin's lap, he cups his boyfriend's face who looked conflicted.

"You can tell me anything, hyung. You know that, right?" He gave his well-known sweet eye smile at the older boy to hopefully reassure him.

"I just... Didn't want to rule our world, I guess..." The vampire boy said, trying to sound sure of his words but obviously failed.

Removing his sweet eye smile on his pretty face, Jeno pouts again as he caresses Jaemin's sharp jawline after hearing his words.

The vampire boy frowns as well, already missing the sweet smile he was given and was starting to regret acting like this.

Bongsik– who has been sitting near them and observing the two boys, quietly left to head somewhere else around the small apartment, not wanting to disturb.

"Hyung..."

"I just didn't want to rule the vampire world after my parents. Sure, I'm supposed to do it and carry on the legacy, but I... Just don't want to."

Jaemin attempts to convince Jeno so they could move one from this. But the human boy wasn't having it, "hyung. I don't know if this is a soulmate thing or not, but I can sense that there's something else."

Biting the inside of his cheek, the vampire boy unconsciously tightens his hold around Jeno's waist and licks his fangs. "Let's sleep, I'm tired." He abruptly announces.

Despite how they had their first argument a while ago and Jeno had literally got upset about Jaemin's antics on talking about a topic he doesn't like.

Most specifically, dismissing it all of a sudden and ordering the younger boy to go to sleep.

Although, Jeno could sense Jaemin's emotions a little bit. And he feels like this is the usual moment where he should just let it go and agree with his lover.

He decides to not push it, like before. Leaning in to nuzzle his face into the crook of Jaemin's cold neck, he presses a soft kiss on the boy's jawline.

"Can you carry me to bed, Jaemin hyung?" He mumbles out. "I'm not really hungry anyway, all the food we ate while watching TV was enough." He softly giggles.

He successfully lightens up the mood as his boyfriend chuckles back and kisses his temple. "If you're so sure. Don't starve, okay, pup?"

After blurting that short simple word out, they both froze for a moment and went silent. The two of them were flustered by what Jaemin himself had said.

Slowly pulling away, Jeno blinks a few times at him as Jaemin could only gulp audibly. "Did you just call me... Pup?"

There it is.

Biting his lip with his fangs, Jaemin doesn't realize his boyfriend was glancing at them for a second before blushing madly.

Well, Jeno can explain... But not now. Heh.

"Jaeminnie hyung?" The younger boy calls out again, seeing his lover spacing off a bit.

Sighing, Jaemin suddenly hides his face into Jeno's neck and hums. "Fine, yes. Yes, I did call you, pup." He mumbles against his boyfriend's soft skin.

He takes a sniff and groans, gosh, Jeno's blood smells so nice. But he had just drank from him last night, he can't do it again right now or else Jeno would pass out again.

He blinks his eyes open and saw a glimpse of his bite mark on his boyfriend's soft skin– making him feel a bit proud of himself.

Seeing his bite mark on Jeno's neck, he feels a sense of possessiveness from it. He likes the way it looks on the younger boy, he kinda wants to keep it there forever.

It does sorta show off that Jeno Lee is already taken and you should really back off before you regret anything.

Jeno pulls Jaemin's face away from his neck to face him, "why the name 'pup'?" He wonders, a small smile already on his face.

Grunting, Jaemin licks his fangs once again. "You're like a puppy. That's just it for me. Sure you're not actually a werewolf but still, you're better than a werewolf."

Raising a brow at him, Jeno kinda wants to laugh. "Hyung." He calls out again as Jaemin clicks his tongue. "Just say it."

"Fine, I can't believe I'm actually saying this despite being your boyfriend. But, you're fucking adorable, Lee Jeno."

Kissing his lover softly, Jaemin grins when the said boy was blushing at him before hugging him tightly again. "Let's go to sleep, hyung." He whines.

Laughing, Jaemin shakes his head at him and easily stands up whilst carrying Jeno in his arms before heading towards the bedroom.

"My dear soulmate, tell me soon, please."

"Pup, this is more stressful than I thought."
