The Scent of Your Blood

Chapter 59

It was around 7 p.m. and the couple were on their way to the Eiffel Tower. Tomorrow would be the day that Hongjoong and Seonghwa were going back to Korea. Hongjoong couldn't believe 2 weeks passed by that quickly. He wished he could stay for another week, but he will admit he was missing his friends and classes were starting. He didn't wanna miss any. Seonghwa smiled at Hongjoong who was a few feet in front of him and the mortal glanced back at his fiancé, a smile growing on his lips.

"Walk faster! Come on."

The demon chuckled and picked up the pace, quickly catching up with the other. Their fingers intertwined and Seonghwa lifted their hands to kiss the back of Hongjoong's. The Eiffel Tower was getting closer and Hongjoong's excitement was growing.

"Are we taking the lift or the stairs?" The older asked and Hongjoong hummed in thought.

"The lift. There are too many stairs."

Seonghwa chuckled. They had purchased their tickets beforehand and made their way to the lift where a few other people were getting on. Their tickets allowed them access to the very top of the tower. The elevator clunked as it began moving and Hongjoong looked around with wide curious eyes while Seonghwa just stared in adoration at his soulmate.

"Did you know that there is a restaurant at the top?" Hongjoong said, turning to look at Seonghwa and the demon nodded. "Yes. There is also a bar and shops."

"That's cool," Hongjoong muttered and looked around again.

Once they reached the second floor, everyone got off and Seonghwa watched as the younger wandered off. "Baby, wait up," he smiled and Hongjoong turned around to grin at him.

"Move faster old man."

"Old man?" Seonghwa raised an eyebrow and rested an arm around the other's shoulders.

"Yeah, I swear I could hear your knees creaking when we were walking to the tower," he giggled and Seonghwa glared at him as he tickled his sides, making the other let out a squeal which caught a few peoples attention. "Stop, people are looking," he grabbed the demon's hands and tried prying them away but Seonghwa just held on tighter, a cheeky grin on his lips. "Seonghwa," Hongjoong pouted and the other leaned in to peck his soulmate's lips, the younger's face growing pink.

"Oh, hey, Hongjoong."

The couple looked around and saw Charlotte giving them a little wave, her little brother by her side.

"Hey, Charlotte. What a coincidence seeing you here," Hongjoong smiled and sent the young boy a wave to which he waved back.

The girl nodded. "Yeah."

Jonas giggled as he ran up to Seonghwa, jumping on the older male and almost causing him to fall onto his butt. Hongjoong and Charlotte laughed at the two. "My brother likes him."

The male's smile widened. "Seonghwa seems to be great with kids."

Jonas squealed when the demon held him upside down by his legs, the boy letting out uncontrollable laughter and his hands reached out to touch the floor.

"Charlotte! Jonas!"

They all looked over at the woman who was glaring at them, her husband by her side with an amused expression and a smile growing on his lips. "Come here." Charlotte frowned and looked over at her brother that was now standing upright, his cheeks flushed from being upside down.

"Honey, they're just having fun."

"Hm, having fun with the wrong people," she glared at Hongjoong who frowned and stepped away, his back connecting with Seonghwa's chest. His soulmate wrapped an arm around his waist. "I told you two to not run off. Stay away from those two," the woman grabbed Charlotte by the arm and the girl frowned, pulling away from her mother's hold.
