18. THE END

When Taehyung had shifted back, Jungkook was waiting for him. He walked out and saw him sitting and watching the tv. He was smiling, and looked almost angelic. When he turned to look at Taehyung with his sweet smile, Taehyung could not help but blush and look away. He walked over and sat by Jungkook, and his arms wrapped around him. Jungkook smiled and did the same. Taehyung smiled and closed his eyes, taking in every moment of this peace. He felt safe here, and couldn't think of anywhere he would rather be.

But soon his smile fell when he remembered what brought him here.

He sat up letting his hands fall from around Jungkook and he sat up with his head down, feeling the need to explain. Jungkook leaned forward trying to meet Taehyung's line of sight.

"What is it? Why are you sad?" Jungkook asked.

"My parents know what I am now. They are going to be looking for me. When they do, that's it my life is over." Taehyung said feeling tears fill his eyes.

"Tae, I would never let anything happen to you! We are connected, if anything happens to you it happens to me. We are in this together just like we have been since the day you shifted. I found you then, and I will always find you." Jungkook said reaching for Taehyung's hand.

Taehyung looked down at their hands joined together, and he let out a tearful laugh. Jungkook ever the poet, he thought. He looked up at Jungkook and smiled. He knew that he wasn't alone, but it also mean that the boy he loved was in trouble now too. No one knew what he was yet, but if they did he would be in danger as well.

"I shouldn't have come here, I don't know why I did." Taehyung said standing.

"Taehyung your wolf side knew where to go, and brought you here because you feel safe here. I know you are scared but we can fight this together no matter what that means." Jungkook replied standing and taking Taehyung's hand into his own.

Taehyung looked up at him, tears in his eyes and leaned in kissing Jungkook for just a small moment. As they pulled away Taehyung heard a noise coming from the other side of the door. Jungkook heard it too, and pullled Taehyung behind him.

"Hide." Jungkook whispered.

He walked over to the door once Taehyung was out of sight. He slowly opened the door, and let out a sigh of relief.

"Seyon, thank god it's only you." Jungkook said opening the door more.

The older vampire entered the apartment searching slightly for any sign of anyone else there.

"Are you alone Jungkook?" He asked.

"No Taehyung is here." Jungkook said.

"He is? Is he ok?" Seyon asked.

"Yeah, he had rough day so he is staying here for a little while. Did you want to see him?" Jungkook asked.

"Just to see how he is doing." Seyon said.

"Oh ok. May I ask why?" Jungkook asked confused.

"He has been through a lot, and anyone who has been through the test sometimes has some residual side effects. Is he in the other room?" Seyon asked walking to the back bedroom.

Jungkook stopped for a moment.

"How did you know Taehyung was tested?" Jungkook asked.

"Oh um Namjoon told me." Seyon replied.

"I never called Namjoon, he doesn't even know Taehyung is here." Jungkook said suspiciously.

Seyon froze and let out a small chuckle. He rolled his eyes and turned to Jungkook with a smirk on his face.

"That's true. You didn't tell him. In fact the one who told me wasn't my son." Seyon said harshly.

"Then how did you find out Taehyung was here?" Jungkook asked defensively.

"Well, see I have eyes on the inside. A certain brother. I have known more than I let on. You know for a time I thought leaving you alive was a mistake, but now you have brought me a wolf. So it looks like you're worth my time after all."

Seyon said smiling and inching toward Jungkook slowly.

His eyes slowly turning to their deep red shade.

Jungkook had to have heard him wrong.

"You-you left me alive?" Jungkook asked stuttering.

"That's right Jungkook. Are the wheels in your head turning? Are all the pieces starting to fall into place?" Seyon asked still moving toward him.

Jungkook dropped his head trying to remember everything that had happened this past year.

"But why?" Jungkook asked.

"Why not? The truth is, when I bit you I didn't plan on leaving you alive. However, I was interrupted by two young vampires tracking me. I guess I left too obvious a trail for them to track. I had to get away, so that meant I had to leave you alive. I came back to find you and finish you off, only to find my very own son mentoring you." He paused and laughed. "How ironic right? I bit you and my son saves you. Anyway, I watched you for some time and realized how powerful you were. I decided with my help you could be a great asset."

"And asset for what?" Jungkook asked angry.

"My deal with the Kims." Replied Seyon.

"What deal?!" Jungkook said holding back his anger.

"Well, we have had the deal that if a wolf should appear in this town and would not terminate on their own...it was my job to terminate them instead." Seyon said sitting in a near by chair.

"You have killed others?" Jungkook asked.

"Hundreds. The Kim family isn't the only family with the gene." Seyon said smiling.

"The bodies that have been found. They were wolves." Jungkook stated sitting on the couch across from Seyon.

"Ding ding ding! Correct. They had been tested, and failed just like Taehyung So where is he?" Seyon said standing and searching again.

"You are not taking him!" Jungkook yelled after him.

Seyon let out a sigh.

"Jungkook do you know why I left you alive?" Seyon asked turning to him.

"No." Jungkook replied.

"Well, think. I was hunting wolves. Why would I come after you unless..." Seyon said letting his voice trail off.

Jungkook thought for a moment.

"No that's impossible." He said nervously.

"Do you remember how you even got to the woods Jungkook? Do you remember most of what happened that day?" Seyon asked pushing Jungkook. "You were a wolf Jungkook. Your greedy foster dad drugged you, injected you and called me. You see I found out about you, about who your parents were. Your foster dad was more than willing to help me get rid of you. When I wasn't able to kill you, and yet you survived the bite being what you are...I was curious. What would a wolf vampire hybrid be like?" Seyon said pushing Jungkook harder this time causing him to trip over the leg of the couch.

"I figured you would be more powerful than any other vampire has been. You transitioned and indeed were stronger and your abilities more powerful, but your wolf side was suppressed. I wanted to train you to control your abilities and become an asset to me. Imagine my surprise to hear another wolf had emerged and that he had imprinted on you. I could not believe my luck. A hybrid that could sense other wolves would be a great help to me. So when Taehyung's parents called me to have him eliminated I already knew where he would be." Seyon said kicking Jungkook repeatedly.

Jungkook groaned but took every hit. He wanted to distract Seyon, to give Taehyung enough time to get away.

Jungkook had signaled for him to run, but Taehyung froze when he saw Jungkook on the floor taking kick after kick.

"Hey! You want me? I'm right here!" Taehyung yelled getting Seyon's attention.

The older vampire stopped kicking Jungkook and walked toward Taehyung instead.

"Well, here you are! I have my instructions to eliminate you on behalf of the Kim family. So let's get this over with, I have more pressing business." Seyon said rushing toward Taehyung.

Taehyung and Seyon struggle and land punches on each other.

Taehyung could feel the anger building up, but he was not shifting. He tried his best to fight the vampire off, but inhuman form his strength was no match fro him. Soon he was in Seyon's grip and struggling. From behind him, Jungkook lunge forward wrapping his arm around Seyon��s throat.

"Taehyung go!!!" He yelled.

"No I can't leave you to fight him alone!" Taehyung yelled.

"Call the hyungs! Tell them to hurry!" Jungkook yelled.

Taehyung nodded his head running out the door with his phone in hand.

"Hyung, it's Taehyung! You need to get here quick! It's Seyon, he is attacking Jungkook!" Taehyung yelled into the phone breathless.

He turned to look at. The window when crashing sounds were heard. He took a deep breathe and closed his eyes but this time he didn't focus on a good memory. He didn't want to keep the wolf in, this time he wanted the wolf to wake up and fight. Maybe, just maybe this time he could control it. He thought of all the bad he had faced these last few weeks. The lies he was told the hiding, the betrayal, the pain, the heart ache, every bad moment.

He struggled for some time, but the louder the noise became the more anger he felt and it was enough to push him over the edge. The hyungs arrived seeing a white wolf rushing into his apartment and the sounds of crashing and things breaking coming from inside. When they arrived int he door way, Taehyung was growling at Seyon's ho had Jungkook by the neck.

"Dad?" Namjoon asked suprised.

"Well, son...this is a little awkward." Seyon said jokingly.

"What are you doing?" Namjoon asked moving closer.

"What I was hired to do." Seyon answered looking down at Taehyung.

Namjoon followed his father's line of sight to try to understand what he meant.

"You are after Taehyung?" Namjoon asked.

"I was hired to eliminate him, and I will be taking Jungkook as well." Seyon said grunting trying to keep Jungkook his grip.

"What do you mean? What's going on?" Namjoon asked confused.

"Your little friend here...I bit him and he is a hybrid. Wolf and vampire, which makes him a perfect asset for me to find other wolves. They will trust him, even search him out. That will make my job that much easier." Seyon said smiling.

"Jungkook is a...a hybrid?" Namjoon asked looking at the youngest one. "That's why Taehyung was able to imprint on you. He sensed the wolf inside you, that's why you are able to keep him from shifting. Why you can make him shift back?"

"Now you are getting it. So don't interfere son. This is my business." Seyon said tightening his hold on Jungkook.

"You're not going anywhere with him, or Taehyung." Namjoon said loooking up to his dad meeting his red eyes with his own.

*some months later*

(Messages between Taehyung and Jungkook)

Jungkook: "Tae where are you, you are late?"

Taehyung: "I'm coming I forgot my tie!"

Jungkook: "Ok, well hurry the hyungs are here now and they want to take pictures with the graduates!"

Taehyung: "Uh, when did they get so corny?"

Jungkook: "LoL...I have no idea, they look like little mama birds fixing my tie and hair...please come rescue me!"

Taehyung: "HAHAHA...I'll be right there! Man I am so glad high school is over finally!'

Jungkook: "Me too I can't wait to get out of this place!"

Taehyung: "Have you found the new place the hyungs found?"

Jungkook: "It looks great! It's this cool old house and has lots of surrounding forest fo you to run where no one will see you! You will love it!"

Taehyung: "Really? I can't wait! I can't believe it's all over and we are free."

Jungkook: "Yeah! I am so happy it's all over too! No we can start over in a new place. Did you talk to your mom?"

Taehyung: "Yeah...I told her I won't be coming back. I also told her to never contact me again."

Jungkook: "Did you tell her about Seyon?"

Taehyung: "Yeah. She said they suspected that when they hadn't heard back from him that he was probably dead. I think that was warning enough for them not to try to come after me again."

Jungkook: "Good! If they tried again I kill each person who would dare hurt you ad send their hearts the them so they would know who they were dealing with."

Taehyung: "Uh! No you wouldn't, you are a big softy! You might break a lot of bones but you wouldn't rip hearts out! You are too nice for that! Lol!"

Jungkook: "Trust me if I saw some one hurt you, there would be hearts coming out!"

Taehyung: "Oh god, stop being gross! My protector! <3 Don't worry! Everything is fine now. Seyon is dead, my parents are utterly freaked by you guys, and soon we will be out of this town for good! So let's just enjoy today, cause tomorrow is the big moving day!!! Yay!"
