"…what did you just say?" Yoongi presented a somewhat perplexed look in response to your words, as Jungkook continued to lie on the floor; broken and beaten in too many ways to comprehend.

"I said; I'm here, Master" you spoke the words that sank Jungkook's heart once more as you took a small step forward – never taking your fixated stare off Yoongi in the process. "I'm ready to serve you, as you see fit" you blinked gently, relaxing your features to a certain extent. Taehyung and Namjoon who were both still present just off to the right of you, remained completely and utterly dumbfounded; their mouths agape and their expressions one's of pure disbelief. "…the binding of her soul has been completed…she's a Vampire, and she answers to him now – but something's not quite right…" Taehyung dwelt in his saddened thoughts as he looked down to Jimin – knowing that his time with his lover would surely come to an end shortly.

Yoongi let out a choked up cackle in his throat as he proceeded to throw his hands in the air – looking up to the high ceiling of the living room as he roared the sound of victory throughout the entire Manor. "I did it! I've done it – my precious (Y/N); I knew you wouldn't disappoint…for a moment, I truly thought you weren't strong enough to survive the change, but here you are…as perfect as ever" Yoongi stepped towards you – not knowing whether he should let his skin come into contact with yours – thus deciding on refraining until he had a chance to inspect you further.

"It's all thanks to you, Master" your newly coloured, sand-like eyes twinkled as a flash of lightening lit up the dimly surrounded room. "I knew I had to come back to you, so I fought with every ounce of breath in my lungs" your voice took on a monotonous intonation as you observed a look of sheer happiness mixed with relief take place on Yoongi's face. Jungkook – still lying on the floor as if it were his deathbed, looked into your eyes; trying to muster the energy to figure out why they were the glorious colour of the most exotic sand he had ever witnessed – but he had all but truly given up at this stage. "(Y/N)…can't you see me? Can you not even spare one glance in my direction? What happened during your change?" he fought an internal battle of grief, confusion and self-pity as he begged you with his eyes to notice him.

Namjoon watched you carefully – how your body never even wavered; as if you were truly a statue standing before him with a manic stare fixed right on Yoongi. Every single Vampire in the room was clearly able to sense that you had gone through the change; but you were not natum lamia as any normal human should have been. "Is it because she's a domitor? Do domitor's have the power or ability to evade that stage?" he pondered, noticing how Yoongi's bite marks on your delicate neck were non-existent; as if you had never been bitten to begin with.

In any other situation, you would have been terrified for your life – being in such close quarters with Yoongi; being able to almost reach out and touch him or smell the night air on the remainder of his leather jacket that was almost torn to shreds. But, this wasn't just any situation. As you continued to let your body adjust to your surroundings, you took time to notice the vast changes that were taking place right in front of you; all the things you could sense, feel, hear, smell and almost predict as you stood in the room with the seven other Vampires. You didn't need to look to the far end of the room to know that Hoseok was still alive and well – for you could hear his breathing loud and clear. You also didn't need to go over beside Taehyung to look into his face to know that he was filled with undeniable levels of resentment and sadness as he held Jimin in his arms. "Jimin…it's clear he hasn't got much longer to live…and Jungkook is no different at this stage" you said inwardly as you desperately longed to turn your gaze to Jungkook.

"Jungkook…I know you must be confused. I know that you wish I'd acknowledge you. But – for now, you'll just have to trust me. You trust me, right? Because I trust you; so, hold on for just a little longer…please?" you wish you could have verbalised these thoughts directly to Jungkook whose heart was pining for you in the most torturous way imaginable, but doing so would have blown your entire position. "Yoongi; let's see how he fares when the hunter becomes the hunted. When the abuser becomes the abused; when the manipulator becomes the manipulated" you kept these quiet thoughts to yourself as you let a cherubic smile shine from your face into Yoongi's. "He has no fucking idea what I'm planning…and unlike him, I won't waste time in talking." You concluded.

"Master – I thirst. I'm absolutely…ravenous" your voice dipped to a slightly lower octave as you told a bare-faced lie to Yoongi – who thought you were completely under his control. Since waking up, and since receiving copious amounts of information via your connected link with the sine nomine; you were certain of millions of things, however; only two interested you in that moment. One – Yoongi would have been expecting you to crave blood within minutes of waking as it was natural for new Vampires to do so; even though you really didn't thirst at all – for what reason, was irrelevant right then. And two; you knew that if you didn't help Jungkook, not only would he die of a broken heart, but you knew he needed blood…and you planned on giving him yours from the moment you sensed it.

Yoongi bit his lip tentatively, finding himself feeling rather aroused for the first time in what seemed like decades from the sultry, needy look for blood on you face and the tone of your wanton voice that sent his thoughts flying in all directions guttural. "Is that so? You'd like to take your first sip – right now?" he swooped in close to you – his lips almost ghosting the soft skin of your lobes that sent a shiver prancing across your shoulders involuntarily; however, you displayed no physical reaction except a nod, widening your eyes and licking your lips in false anticipation. "My sweet girl…how can I deny a creature as beautiful as you?" his voice almost sounded dainty and endearing as his eyes softened to look into yours – but you were no fool as to imagine he was being sincere.

"Please, Master…don't tease me any longer" your voice pulled on Yoongi's dead heartstrings as Jungkook felt overwhelmed with jealousy, hatred and downright bitterness for Yoongi; as he knew what was going to come next. "In the beginning, I had wondered why you were doing all of this when you planned on turning her anyway…and now, your intentions are more than apparent" Jungkook willingly let his body weight turn deathly heavy as he seemingly sank further into the wooden floor.

With a devilish smile, Yoongi cocked his left eyebrow as he trailed his line of sight over to Jungkook on the floor, before turning back to you and motioning towards the Prince's lifeless body. "He won't have much left in him at this stage; but why don't you finish him off, hmm? I promise that afterwards when I get you alone, you can have all the blood you desire; for I'll need you healthy and strong…" Yoongi's gruff whisper only sickened you further as you would never in a million years even think about 'being alone' with him in any context. "I knew you wouldn't be able to resist poetic justice, Yoongi. You are the most predictable being on this planet; how could you – a mere, pathetic rogue Vampire pass up the opportunity to have the Prince of the Eternal Kingdom's remaining blood supply sucked dry by the one he loves? You could have offered Taehyung, Namjoon or any other soul in this room and you would have foiled my plans. But…your ambition far outweighs your talent for scheming; especially now, when it comes to me" you could have jumped for joy on the spot as you offered a low, respectful bow to Yoongi as means to thank him for so generously gifting you your first meal as a Vampire.

"Thank you so much, my Master" you responded, before slowly turning around to gaze upon Jungkook for the first time since awakening; and the mere sight of him almost tore you to pieces. "…Jungkook…" you inwardly whimpered as you observed how weak and fragile he looked – his ripped white shirt hanging off him like shreds of fabric over a corpse, his luscious raven hair now unkempt that gave him a feral appearance; and finally, the look of total annihilation and defeat on his face as he caught your gaze.

"…go on, my sweet girl~ It will come naturally to you once you place your lips to his neck" Yoongi watched you with eager eyes as you hovered over Jungkook's body – knowing that the first time your fangs made an appearance would be a painful experience for you; which only excited him more. As you dropped to your knees beside the Prince pooled in blood, Taehyung – now with more tears in his eyes, couldn't bear to watch as he looked away with his mouth in an open, flat line. Namjoon and Seokjin joined in on the spectacle as you carefully rolled Jungkook over on to his back with the soft pads of your fingertips, allowing you to get just a small grasp of your newfound omnipotent strength you possessed as you flipped him over gently with ease. "You've made this too easy for me Yoongi" you almost smiled, the position of having your back facing Yoongi ultimately giving you an extreme upper-hand as it left him blind to your front actions.

"Yes…yes, that's it – go on…" Yoongi grinned as he found his breathing becoming more laboured in anticipation.

Jungkook lay as silent as a lamb, looking up into your shining, opulent face as he found himself unable to take his eyes off yours – how stunningly ethereal you looked in that moment. Never in a million years would he have wanted to admit that you looked even more captivating and prepossessing as a Vampire. "I wish I had the strength to vocalise so many things to you, (Y/N). But if I am to die…I'd rather it be like this. To be killed by the one you love; controlled by the one you loathe. If it wasn't all so damned, it would be beautiful, in a way" Jungkook fully submitted and accepted what he thought was his inevitable end – offering you several, slow blinks as a single tear escaped him, trickling down his temples to mix with his hair on the floor.

"I suppose my act eluded even you, Jungkook" you smiled, as you placed your bare hand over his cheek; cupping it ever-so-gently. In that moment, to say that Jungkook felt the biggest, most spine-tingling shock in his life would have been a complete fabrication of reality; as once more, he felt the life and emotion that you had given him before…except this time, it was amplified by numbers uncharted.

"…(Y/N)?" Jungkook felt his skin heat up under your touch as you lowered your head – never taking your eyes away from his; hoping with all your might that he could understand what was truly going on. As Jungkook let a severely perplexed look wash over him, you very quietly opened and closed your mouth – motioning for him to mimic you in turn.

"She wants me to open my mouth? What on earth is going on?" Jungkook knitted his eyebrows close together, before seeing you flash him a warning sign with the use of your eyes – widening them to their full capacity. "…she's…she's not under his control…" the penny finally dropped for him as he knew that if you were truly bound to Yoongi, none of this would be happening. Deciding to put his full trust in you, Jungkook opened his mouth – not being able to comprehend why, but knowing that neither of you had anything to lose.

"Thank goodness…you understand" you could have cried with happiness – but instead, you proceeded to bite the insides of your own cheeks; tasting the blood that seeped through the fresh wounds in your mouth as you let it pool on your palate. "It's a pity that Yoongi doesn't know that domitor's who become Vampires…do not 'need' the blood of other sentient beings to survive – as my own blood continues to flow through my body, and will continue to do so until the end of days" you quickly opened your mouth – letting your blood slip past your lips to drip down on to Jungkook's with the knowledge of the sine nomine flowing through your entire existence. At first, Jungkook's immediate reaction was to resist, but as your blood came into contact with his taste buds; allowing him to savour the spell-bounding taste of you – soaking up the enchanting consistency and warmth of your blood…it was like liquid gold to him.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bite him!" an impatient Yoongi raised his voice from behind you – wanting to relish in victory that was the death of his Prince.

"Yes, Master – sorry, Master" you replied, before lowering your face even further into the crook of Jungkook's neck.

"…bite me" you whispered the quietest whisper into Jungkook's ear as you proceeded to place your lips over his neck, but instead of biting him; you began kissing his skin over and over. It was in that moment, Jungkook didn't know all the ins and outs of what you were capable of; but he knew exactly why you wanted him to do such a thing. "She…she's saving me – her blood will act as consumed blood to replenish me" he finally understood why you let your blood drip into his mouth a few seconds ago; to give him enough strength to be able to feed off of you.

You shut your eyes tight; expecting to feel the same excruciating pain inflicted upon you, courtesy of Yoongi before your death. Only this time – you felt little to no discomfort as you made sure your shoulder was angled in such a way that hid Jungkook's fangs from Yoongi as they entered you – puncturing your skin and letting the rich, aromatic blood from your veins fill his mouth that slid down his throat as smooth as honey. Jungkook rolled his eyes back – his body stiffening and softening as he drank you down, knowing that he didn't need much to sustain him from the pure potency of your blood. The vicious Vampire inside of him wished to continue sipping on your fountain of life; and you would have been lying if you didn't admit to the slight pleasure of feeling him suckling on your skin – taking everything you had to offer in order to nourish himself that made you feel on top of the world. But, with the way you kissed him so tenderly; Jungkook's pure love for you and all things he held morally correct allowed him to retract his fangs from your skin as he felt his energy levels quickly solidifying and building within him once again.

Yoongi watched you with hopeful eyes as he observed the way you moved your head from side to side – giving him the illusion of you ripping into Jungkook's main artery; alongside the fact that Jungkook's body was pulsating in response. "Yes…yes that's it – until the very last drop…" he pursed his lips together while stealing a glance back at Namjoon who found the sight of you similar to that of a car crash – in which, he couldn't look away. The sounds produced by Jungkook's suckling – mixed with the trickling of your blood only further added to the spectacle you were successfully performing; sounds which ignited fiery happiness within Yoongi – and chilly sombreness within Taehyung.

Jungkook continued to lay there once he had taken his fill, feeling his power slowly coming back to him while simultaneously loving the way your lips felt against his neck. "I don't know what she has become, but she's still my (Y/N); yet – what is she scheming?" he silently questioned your intentions as you gently pulled away from him, giving him a secret smile; for his eyes only. "I can't tell you right now Jungkook; but I hope you'll follow my lead…" you rose to your feet, seeing Jungkook close his eyes as he remained looking all but lifeless on the floor; creating the illusion that he was barely alive.

"You should keep drinking (Y/N) – until he's bone dry~" you heard Yoongi's voice command you from behind – a sound that made the petty hate inside you build like a tidal wave ready to wreak havoc in its path. "Get back down there and eat your fill of him!" once more, his voice almost sounding like nails on a chalkboard to you at this stage. "You have no idea what you've done, Yoongi. It's time for me to end this now." you thought, smirking to yourself as you turned around to face Yoongi and the others.

"I think I've had enough for now. I'm good – thanks, though" you replied with sickly-sweet smile – a bold and daring look dancing in your sand eyes that took Yoongi aback. You observed him flinch at your words of defiance; alongside Namjoon, Seokjin and Taehyung who all looked like they had just witnessed something so unbelievable, it was almost comical to you.

Yoongi stared back at you – almost wondering if you were just making a sarcastic joke; but he knew from the way your smile dropped, and the way that your eyes glared at him as if he were the vilest thing to inhabit the earth – that you were being deadly serious. "How dare you be so disobedient? I'm your Master…and I said – get back down on your fucking knees and kill him!" he raised his voice menacingly, but you never flinched in response. Instead, you continued staring him down – and this time, you weren't afraid.

"That's where you're wrong, Yoongi" you paused to let a slight chuckle pass your lips – watching high levels of rage take place on his face. "You see; when you read your pathetic 'book' that claimed to know everything about how domitors would be when they change…it's apparent that it failed to inform you that domitors cannot be owned. To put it in simpler terms so that even someone as thick headed as you can understand; I don't belong to anyone. I am my own Master. You bit me, killed me…and then you played right into my hands. What do they call this position we're in? Hmm? Oh…that's right. Check- mate!" you whispered your last sentence so viciously that it caused shivers to run down Namjoon's spine; half impressed, half terrified by you. "She…she tricked him into thinking she was his? Why?" he still found himself confused, as Taehyung sat with his mouth wide open; the shock of everything becoming almost too much for him at this stage. It was at this point; you could very clearly hear the sound of whirring helicopter blades in the very far distance just north of the Manor – but you knew that you were the only one that could hear it…as your prowess and senses far outweighed and surpassed any of the male Vampires' around you.

"But…no – why would you – how did you –"

"Why would I pretend to be bound to you? How did I come back, not as natum lamia, but as a fully fledged, Vampire-domitor­ hybrid?" you cut Yoongi off abruptly, not wanting to waste any more of your precious time on listening to his useless words. "I'm afraid I don't have all evening to stand here and inform you of all the smaller details. I'm not your teacher; I don't owe you any kind of explanation at all. Yet – I think it would be easier to show you why I wasn't completely honest with you…calling you Master…" the mere word itself almost made you vomit up the non-existent contents of your empty stomach, as you reeled in joy at the look of absolute catastrophe and frustration Yoongi was giving you.

"Why don't you get up off that dirty floor…Jungkook?" you never took your eyes off your opponent, as you heard Jungkook near silently rise to his feet within half a second – before he was directly behind you; his chin just above your shoulder as he joined you in glaring at a very confused, very angry and very pissed off Yoongi.

"…what the fu…how are you? What? You – you should be at deaths door; how are you able to stand?!"Yoongi's face almost turned a deep shade of red with how enraged he was as you observed one of his veins in his forehead protrude, watching him ball his fists up so tightly that you were sure his bones would crumble beneath the pressure he was subjecting them to.

"Don't tell me…(Y/N); did she let Jungkook feed from her? How is this possible?" Taehyung's brain began working faster than the speed of light despite his dying lover in his arms. "Unless – domitors, when turned…they are still able to produce their own blood?…that means – she doesn't need blood to survive. (Y/N)…my good god, what on earth have you become?" he continued to come up with his own theories. Despite that, both he and Namjoon were relieved to see Jungkook still alive and more than apparently well as he took his place behind you. "She…she saved him with her own blood" Namjoon thought quietly at the image of you both together, as he began backing up towards where Taehyung and Jimin were on the ground; for he knew that some kind of altercation was about to unfold, and his gut instinct told him that he was absolutely no match for your power that they could all feel vibrating in the air around them.

"How dare you lie to me!" Yoongi spat at you with such fury, fire burning in his eyes as he felt himself lose any and all control of his composure. "Who do you think you are? I made you; I am the one who gave you your rebirth…you belong to me!" a double strike of lightening crashed to the ground outside that lit up the whole room like a ball of illumination. "I'm giving you one last chance…come to me and I'll let you live."

Just as you were about to respond, you flicked your eyes across to the broken window at the sound of a helicopter getting closer; the helicopter in question belonging to none other than Jungkook's mother and father. You looked to the conscious faces in the room; Yoongi, Seokjin, Namjoon, Taehyung, and finally – you looked over your shoulder to Jungkook; knowing from the look on their faces that all of them were able to hear it now. As a final nail in the coffin, you spoke up directly to Yoongi, knowing that he was most likely feeling trapped like nothing more than a mere rat.

"The day I ever come to you, is the day that the sun will rise in the west and set in the east. I would sooner die than ever, ever associate with the likes of a monster like you" you spoke without a quiver in your voice – and you could feel Jungkook's hand as it rested on the small of your back; a constant, guiding reassurance that spoke volumes of comfort and love to you, as if he was whispering "I'm right behind you. I'm always here."

Feeling like he had nothing more to lose, except the last ounce of any remaining sanity within him, Yoongi let out a violent roar as he proceeded to lunge at you, with every intention of tearing you from limb to limb. "She thinks she can just take everything away from me? Everything I've worked so hard to accomplish…my life's work for the past thirteen years? I won't go down like this…and if I must; I'll take her with me" was all he could think as he went to begin sprinting towards you to grab you in his hands. But – just as he did, he felt himself become firmly routed to the ground; unable to move a muscle, as if he were paralysed from the neck down.

"What the fuck? What? What's happening to me?!" Yoongi screamed as he continuously attempted to move his body; but to no avail.

"…is that you doing that?" Jungkook whispered into your ear, astounded by the sight of Yoongi completely and utterly powerless in front of him. Jungkook watched your head as you slowly nodded at his words, keeping your concentration intensely focused on Yoongi, as you held him in place with nothing more than the power of your mind.

"How are you doing that?" Jungkook asked, sounding both amazed and intrigued as Yoongi continued to struggle due to your effortless control, while Namjoon and Taehyung passed side glances of disbelief to each other.

"I'm - I'm not quite sure. I just…wanted to make him stop; and this is what happened" you whispered back, telling the gods honest truth as you got used to the feeling of the telekinetic, physical manipulation you possessed becoming easier for you to handle as the seconds went on. The next thing you knew, you spied Seokjin from just behind Yoongi – attempting to make a break for the living room doors in the hopes of getting away from you and the King and Queen's arrival.

"Not today, sunshine" you narrowed your eyes, as you raised your hand and flicked it sideways mid-air; causing Seokjin to follow your far-away movements in the form of him being vaulted across the room; his body slamming against the far wall as he fell down in a heap beside Hoseok; alive, but unconscious. "That's for the beating you gave Jungkook" you fumed inwardly, not able to stop the pettiness inside you from getting the best of your own emotions. Instantly, Namjoon stood in front of Taehyung and Jimin, almost in a protective stance. "These two…I can't let them be caught in the firing line. (Y/N)…whatever power it is that you have, I hope you're able to control it well" he thought as he proceeded to set himself up as a meat shield for both Vampires on the ground; completely abandoning his position as Yoongi's servant.

"Nngh!" Yoongi let out inaudible, nonsensical words of frustration and strife as he continued to try and struggle away from your telekinetic hold on him. "Let me go, you fucking bitch! Just wait 'till I get over there…I'll make you sorry you were ever born!" he screamed unapologetically. It was then that Yoongi watched you take a step forward, inching yourself closer to him to get a good look into his tormented face.

"You say that as if you haven't already given me reason to wish I was dead…" you tilted your head sideways at him, giving him a serious, sobering look that seemingly held his attention. "Has your memory escaped you? Or did you just choose to ignore the fact that you murdered my parents? You damn near murdered my younger brother too…had it not of been for Jungkook's father and your father" you let your venomous words spill out of your mouth like clouds of toxic smoke from a volcano about to erupt. "You…you took everything away from me. You took my family, my childhood…my entire life. You stole everything that was precious to me…and you almost took Jungkook away from me too. And now…you're going to suffer for your sins" you let out a menacing roar upon the tone of your voice increasing in volume; a shrill that seemed to shake the walls of the Manor from its reverberation. "Not only that…but what about Taehyung? Did you forget about him? Did you forget about how you bit Jimin and left him for dead? Did you forget about how – just before you killed me…you took away the only thing that your brother has ever held so dearly?" you kept edging yourself closer and closer as you listened to the sound of Jimin's heartbeat becoming so slow, you knew he had but a few moments to live.

You watched Yoongi as he pitifully twisted and struggled in agony, trying desperately to break free of the invisible shackles you had him bound to. In just a few short seconds, all of your past flooded your mind; the pain you felt when you were told your parents were dead, the grief that filled your childhood in the aftermath of Yoongi's destruction. You thought back to the day when Cassidy was taken away to live out the rest of his days surrounded by the white walls of a psychiatric hospital and all of the guilt and shame you felt in the years to follow. How you always had to lie to everyone you met; how you always had to hide your true feelings and your true self from each person that tried to be close with you. You thought about the ways in which Yoongi could have used you to continue doing those things to the masses of innocence. And most painfully, you thought about how Yoongi had singlehandedly taken away the only thing that Taehyung loved more than anything else in the world – his beautiful, gentle Jimin who now lay moments away from his untimely death.

"You…are a cancer to this earth. But I…I am the cure. I should end you right here, right now" you squinted at him in disgust – the sight of his beautiful – yet pathetic face right before yours, within inches of your grasp, ready to be decimated by you.

"He deserves this more than anyone I have ever known…and I should have had the back-bone to have done so, a long time ago…(Y/N); I won't stop you" Jungkook spoke lowly into your ear from behind, as if he was almost egging you on to take Yoongi apart right there and then.

Without hesitation, you let out a vexed scream as you raised your hands to Yoongi's chest; before ripping open the remainder of his leather jacket and black shirt underneath; discarding the fabric to the floor and exposing his bare, upper torso before you. You listened to Yoongi as he screamed, whimpered and shamefully spat vile, crude words to you as you watched his chest rising and falling to accommodate his heavy – almost terrified breathing. In many ways, a part of you felt accomplished; having made him so scared that he cried out like a child to be let go. But something held you back – almost like instinct inside of you, as you recalled the sine nomine's words from earlier.

"To err is human, to forgive; divine" – you didn't really know what they had meant at that time, but now, it seemed more than apparent what the sine nomine was getting at. "I am a domitor. I am someone who gives live…not someone who takes it. Who…who am I to play god? If I kill Yoongi now…am I the same as he? Will this vicious cycle of pain continue? Killing him won't bring back my parents…but does he deserve to live? And is that choice mine to make?" you felt your heart wavering as you clearly observed nothing less than true fear radiate from Yoongi in that moment.

"…I'm not like you, Yoongi. In fact, I'd say that you and I…we are as much alike as day and night" you whispered – your face so close to his that he could feel your warm breath on his chin.

"The fuck do you m-mean?" he stammered back at you – even Jungkook becoming slightly confused at your words.

"I'm going…to give you something that you took from me. Something that you never had in the first place to be able to appreciate. And I give it to you; willingly" was all you said, before you lunged forwards to him – pressing your chest against his; the exposed skin above the low neckline of your dress coming into direct contact with him…before enveloping him in your embrace as you wrapped your bare arms around his torso. The next thing that happened was equally mesmerising as it was unbelievable, as Jungkook widened his eyes at your actions. Every Vampire in the room could feel the life you were passing into Yoongi; they could clearly see the love and forgiveness that radiated from your body on to his as if it were a direct transfer of energy from one soul to another. Taehyung sat completely spellbound as he watched a glowing aura of gentle yellow circle both you and Yoongi; while Namjoon found himself feeling emotional for what reasons; he didn't know. The atmosphere and feeling in the room was near galactic in many aspects as you continued to swaddle Yoongi close – feeling him breathing heavily in the crook of your neck; hearing him whimper, moan and pant as your energy surged through him like an unstoppable tidal wave. Yoongi could hardly think – he wasn't sure if he was even breathing in that moment as all he could feel was you…and guilt.

Jungkook continued to watch and observe the impact of your power as he found himself listening to what appeared to be deafening white noise; as all ambience seemed to vacate the air around him. Quickly, he shot his eyes over to Namjoon and Taehyung; seeing Namjoon rubbing his ears in an attempt to try and hear anything other than nothing. "(Y/N)…this…this power of yours; it's the greatest thing I've ever felt" Taehyung thought quietly as he witnessed what no other Vampire had ever witnessed on earth before. For a few seconds, Taehyung couldn't help but think about how the tables had turned between you and Jungkook; how he was the one protecting you…and now you were the one protecting them all.

"My (Y/N)…how beautiful, how powerful…and how amazing and tenacious you are. Although I haven't the foggiest idea of what you're doing…I trust you. I trust that you're doing the right thing" Jungkook breathed deeply, as you retracted your arms from Yoongi and proceeded to draw a breath of your own; one that seemed to last for an eternity as everyone slowly began collecting their proper audio again – as if you were the one that had been distorting it from the beginning. No sooner had you let go of him, Yoongi dropped to his knees on the floor, still breathing like he had been gasping for air for the longest time…as he felt something change within him.

"What is this? What…what am I feeling?" he murmured inwardly; with the prominent sensation of every emotion coursing through his veins all at once. "She…she gave me my emotions back?!" Yoongi shut his eyes tightly; wanting to give into the gift you bestowed on him, but also wanting to remain the stubborn rogue Vampire he has been finessing within himself for well over a decade in solitude. "No…not this; anything but this!" he battled, but his efforts were futile, and not only could he not resist the power of a domitor…but no Vampire would ever be able to resist a Vampire-domitor­ hybrid. It was then that Yoongi felt guilt, shame and resentment towards himself smack him right in his face like a cold, dead fish. All of his wrong doings, all of his unfair judgements – the humans he had ruthlessly murdered in cold blood, the mistreatment of those who relied on him, and most of all; his only brother, whom he had betrayed beyond any words any one of you could have uttered.

It was apparent to all who witnessed the entire scene, that Yoongi had just received his emotions; but it was also apparent that there was something very different about him indeed. Jungkook watched you as you knelt down to your knees – placing your hand over Yoongi's perspired face…as his features began changing; as if it was becoming older – leaving his youthful image behind.

"Thirteen years ago, you manipulated my brother into letting you into my home. You took my parents lives…and in turn, you took my life too. But not in the way that most people would expect it. You took joy, happiness, safety and security away from me, and you never even batted an eyelid to the damage you had caused. And tonight; you really went the extra mile…by actually taking my life" you paused, caressing his cheek every-so-gently…seeing real tears escape Yoongi as he sobbed uncontrollably at the raw reality of your words with his emotions fully intact.

"At first, I couldn't understand why you had no remorse…even as a Vampire. Even as a Vampire whom I touched as a young girl that caused all this maddening mess to begin with. But now…now I understand" you spoke softly, as Taehyung finally understood what was going on – being able to feel his only brothers life force begin to slowly slip away. "Yoongi…he's not a Vampire any more. He's…he's human…", before everyone else who was still conscious felt it too, leaving Namjoon and Jungkook at an unbelievable loss for words at how you were able to reverse the effects of Vampirism with a single embrace.

"Yoongi…I wanted to inflict so much pain upon you that you would suffer the most excruciating death, and I would have happily watched, too. But then I realised that the only way for me to live with this for the rest of my eternal life…is to give you the very thing you stole from me. And that – as you can feel…is life; in its true form."

Yoongi cried out in nothing less than pain as he felt his bones weaken – feeling himself age drastically in a matter of seconds; feeling all of his youthful, superhuman strength get reduced to the strength of an elderly man who had been evading death for too long; eluding the reaper of souls for one year too many.

"Since my brother has outlived the average lifespan of a human man…he's ageing a mile a moment now. He'll die…of natural causes; (Y/N)…you were meant to be his weapon, his reaper of human and Vampire souls alike. But, you figured out a way to keep this world safe…without having his blood on your hands…" Taehyung found himself gripping tighter on to Jimin as he finally understood that your newfound power was absolutely limitless. A large part of Taehyung felt relieved for the simple reason that his brother was dangerous; out of control and more hostile than any wild animal that prowled the earth. He even felt grateful that his brother could be laid to rest like this; rather than being torn apart in front of the Eternal Kingdom's council and having to witness his mother and father weeping for their eldest son's death. But, a very small part of him – was causing his heart to break even more than it already had, as he looked down to Jimin; almost departed from the world. "You're evil, Yoongi. But…you will always be my brother." he wept silently, drowning in his sorrows in the form of his tears streaming uncontrollably down his face.

Namjoon watched with fearful eyes at the sight of you looking into Yoongi's face, touching his cheek as his life force continued to dwindle away. He couldn't fathom why – but he held you in such a high respect, even though he knew that the same end would probably meet him sooner rather than later; for he too had committed crimes against humanity. "…and I will accept my crimes head on" he vowed, no matter the cost. Even though Namjoon had only been acting under his Master's orders, Namjoon stood firm in his belief of accepting responsibility for his wrongdoings – and it was mostly thanks to your touch that allowed him to feel remorse and regret once more.

Gently, you hushed Yoongi's weakened cries and pleas for relief as he slowly became quieter and more docile; in comparison to the viciousness he had displayed just moments ago. As you felt his time drawing closer to the end, Yoongi opened his mouth – his face the face of an aged old man on his deathbed; attempting to utter his final words to those who were willing to listen.

"I…I'm sorry" he croaked, looking up into your sand coloured eyes as he gripped his chest for dear life. You nodded reassuringly in response – even though he was the one person you despised more than anything else.

"I know" you blinked slowly, watching him try to angle his face to look at Taehyung, seeing his eyes fall upon Jimin, too.

"I'm sorry… my brother. Tae…c-can you forgive…me?" Yoongi's voice was frail, broken and weak as he attempted to hold on just long enough to hear Taehyung's answer.

"…" Taehyung's words escaped him; and before he could think of anything to say….you all felt Yoongi slip away as his body returned to ashes on the ground before you; leaving only his remaining clothes laying where he once occupied, as you thought quietly, "Every living thing must die someday – ashes to ashes, and dust to dust."

"I'm sorry it had to end this way" Taehyung sniffled through his tears; truly feeling more alone than he had ever felt in all his years alive. "I'm sorry for not being able to forgive you, brother" he shut his eyes tightly, burying his face into Jimin's neck and crying uncontrollably – completely and utterly inconsolable.

You sat still for a moment, taking a few seconds to fill your lungs with the fresh air that swept into the living room through the broken window. "I hope I made the right decision" you brooded in silence. In the beginning, you had only sought to selfishly seek your own revenge, but upon remembering why you were created, along with the majestic words of the sine nomine; you had to think about everyone who would have been affected by Yoongi's madness – for you knew he was too far gone to be saved, even from himself. "If I gave him the death I had only ever dreamt about…I would be no better than him." You had concluded within yourself; but there was no time to sit around and lament over Yoongi, for you knew that there was just one other thing you needed to do. You stood up immediately – feeling dizzy and sick, as the reversal of the effect of Vampirism had seemingly taken a large portion of your power; leaving you fatigued and drowsy.

"Careful!" Jungkook quickly caught you – saving you from the fall to the floor as he held you firmly in his arms.

"T-take me to Jimin; he doesn't have long" you murmured through your weak state, before Jungkook instantly complied with your wishes and carried you in his arms over towards Taehyung and Jimin; with Namjoon quickly stepping aside with curious eyes to give you enough room – for what he was giving you room for, he didn't know.

Jungkook set you down gently in front of them, clearly being able to see Taehyung's distraught, reddened eyes as he had been crying out his entire heart and soul in the wake of losing his brother, and the thought of losing his lover. You didn't know exactly what you could do; if you could do anything at all, as you looked into Taehyung's face – feeling tremendous amounts of guilt about everything.

"Taehyung…I'm so, so sorry for everything; I never meant for any of this to happen…" you reached out to touch his hand on top of Jimin's, feeling him clutch on to yours for dear life. "He…he had to be stopped…and I didn't know how else to-"

"You did the best you could in the time you were given. And I could never hate you. Not even for that" Taehyung winced, stopping your speech as he looked back down to Jimin. "But…I think you're out of time when it comes to my Jimin. He doesn't have the strength to drink from you like Jungkook did; (Y/N)…he's really going to die, isn't he?"

The pain in Taehyung's voice hurt you like a thousand knives in your heart as you felt yourself tearing up, hating that you didn't know what you could do with the power you had left. "I…I've never done any of this before, but it can't hurt to try, right?" you placed your hands on Jimin, trying to focus on whatever strength you had inside you as you prayed for a miracle to appear out of nowhere while Jungkook held on to your shoulders; hiding his face away from his cousin as he joined you both in weeping; his heart as heavy as can be – all sorts of things whizzing through his mind, including his pondering of your unplanned pregnancy with him as he still hoped with all his might that maybe…just maybe you could both still have that future together.

"If you don't try – I lose him. If you try and nothing works, I'll still lose him. Please (Y/N)…please try anything…" Taehyung almost choked as you all knew Jimin had but seconds, before he would slip from your world into the next.

You took a deep breath, drowning out everything around you as you focused hard on Jimin in front of you. You took in all the little aspects of him – his dampened golden locks from his clammy skin, his eyes that had long closed and his plump lips that almost looked blue due to the effects of the toxins in his body. As you concentrated, you found your hands making their way to the knife that was still buried deep within Jimin's chest; hearing a voice telling you "Remove the knife; place your hands on his chest…we will help you…"

"Sine nomine?" you said out loud, not being aware of the innocent, strange looks you got off of Taehyung, Namjoon and Jungkook as they all still remained ignorant of your conversation with the ones who placed domitors on the earth. Carefully, you removed the knife from Jimin, watching the rest of his blood pump very slowly out of his wound before placing your hands over his gaping laceration.

"Oh god, Jimin…please…" Taehyung whispered, watching you press down on Jimin as you continued to mumble words that made absolutely no sense to anyone. Ultimately, you had no idea what you were doing; if it was going to make a difference at this stage or not. But something inside you told you to trust your instincts, to trust what was coming naturally to you as once again, you felt a strange entity of power leave your body, and enter Jimin's.

"Come on…" you prayed, hearing the faint, slow beating of Jimin's heart remain unchanged.

"Come on! Come on Jimin…don't…don't give up on us now!" you pressed down on him with all your might…before at long last, all of you heard the sound of Jimin's heart increasing in speed.

"…Jimin?!" Taehyung raised his voice in a hopeful manner as Jungkook kept his hands on you, sensing that you were about to pass out from the way your own heart began beating dangerously fast as it drummed behind your ribcage. Jungkook couldn't know for sure if the change had caused you to lose the baby, but he still held on to hope – and in doing so, such events like passing out from exhaustion weren't good for anyone; including Vampires – hybrid or not.

"(Y/N)! Take it easy…" Jungkook called out, squeezing your shoulders forcefully in an attempt to get you to stop, but you persisted like wildfire, despite his protests.

"Jimin, you HAVE to live…please; open your eyes…please…" you begged the sine nomine to do the impossible, to allow Jimin to cheat death just this once. "You sacrificed yourself to save me…and now I have to save you, no matter what. So please, please wake up…"

And as if there truly was a God that had been listening to your every prayer – as you felt your eyes start to roll back, and as you felt yourself just about to pass out; at the last second, you saw Jimin – confirming to everyone that you had just done the impossible, as his eyes shot open all of a sudden as if he had just been shocked back to life with a defibrillator.

"…she brought him back! I can't believe it!" Namjoon stood above you all in awe while you truly let deep sleep take over your entire body that caused you to collapse backwards into the safety of Jungkook's arms…

…before Serrena and Jeonju – accompanied by the rest of Jungkook's family, came bursting through the Manor doors.
