Bitten 「A Xiaodery Vampire fanfic」

「TWENTY SEVEN」

By the time the prince woke up, he was in an infirmary, and someone had put handcuffs on him to keep him on the bed. He yanked at the handcuffs uselessly, sighing. "HELLO?" he yelled, trying to angle his head up, but groaned as the pain in his neck hit him.

Lucas rushed in, seeing Hendery awake, and nearly sobed with happiness. There were actually tears in his eyes, and he dove across the room, hugging Hendery tightly, making the vampire groan in pain. Lucas quickly let go, and Hendery hissed, looking around. "Ow... this hurts. Where's Dejun?" Xuxi rolled his eyes, wiping his tears.

"Of course it hurts, he nearly tore your head off, and half of your ribs are broken." he paused, hesitating. "Dejun- Dejun is outside and he's arguing with your grandfather." Hendery looked confused. "Why is he-"

"Baekhyun is yelling at him for putting you in danger, and he won't let Xiaojun in to see you. He won't even look at me, much less listen to me." Hendery growled, and snapped his handcuffs, forcing himself up, ignoring the immense pain. "Huang Guan Heng-" Hendery glared at Lucas. "I am perfectly fine!" his vision swarmed, and Lucas quickly ran over to him, helping him stay upright.

"You are such a bloody idiot-" "Aren't we all when we're in love?" he questioned, and Lucas thought about how he had freaked out over Hendery's injuries and drove him overnight to Baekhun's castle, crying and breaking, begging for him to wake up and not die all night. "Yeah, we are. We certainly are."

He helped Hendery out, letting the vampire lean on him as he stumbled out to Baekhyun's throne room. "Grandpa.." he croaked, forcing himself to stay upright. Xiaojun was being yelled at, and the human looked more distressed than anything, his eyes red from crying.

"Look- I just want to see Hendery, please, he's hurt and-" "AND WHY DO YOU THINK HE'S HURT? BECAUSE HE HAD TO SAVE YOUR MEANINGLESS MORTAL LIFE-"

"Grandpa." Baekhyun snapped his head up, staring at Hendery. "You're awake- wait- why are you out of bed?" "Why are you yelling at my boyfriend?" "Hendery, he is no good for you, he will get you killed-"

"And one day something will. Better me than him." Hendery smiled weakly at Dejun, trying to look healthy despite his pale tone and his shaking form. Xiaojun walked up to him, and hugged him tightly, bursting into tears. "Hendery.. I am so sorry.... I- I- it's my fault-" Hendery shook his head, patting Xiaojun's hair. "It's not. I should've checked the locks more often. I'm sorry if I scared you with my original form, I won't turn again if you don't want me to-"

Dejun slapped him, his face red and blotchy, and covered in tears. "Don't you dare hide who you are because of me. I love you because you're yourself, you're unique, and you're special, because you're you. Like Ten says, Be you, be unique, be crazy, you're beautiful."

Hendery touched the red mark on his face, but smiled. "Thank you, pet.." He could feel his knees beginning to give out, and he stumbled slightly, but Dejun caught him. "Let's get you back to your room, donkey." He muttered, then helped Hendery towards the infirmary, leaving Baekhyun and Lucas in the room. Lucas was about to follow, but Baekhyun stopped him.

"Two things, Xuxi. First thing, the dead brute was sent to Hendery's house, we don't know his actual goal. In our searchbase he's a mercenary, an assassin, to be exact. But since he went upstairs instead of into where Hendery was..." "You suspect he went for Dejun or me. Or both."

Baekhyun nodded, sighing. "Here are some tracking chips, help me put this on those two, and the third is for yourself. Just put it on the back of your hand, and it automatically goes in your blood system. Basically, microbots." Lucas nodded, and put one of the chips on the back of his hand, taking the two and putting them in his pocket. "And the second thing. Regarding your feelings for my grandson.." Lucas started sweating, wondering how the hell Baekhyun knew and was it that obvious. "He is with that human, but I'll still say this." Lucas stared as the grumpy vampire king smiled. "Go get him, tiger."

Lucas didn't even try to contain the smile on his face, and nodded. "Thanks, Baekhyun." The king turned, and sat back down on his throne.

"If anyone ever asks, I'll deny I ever said it, but I did. So if you're finally gonna get the nerve to tell him instead of backing down like a few years ago, just do it. Worrying about it does nothing, but I suggest you find the right time. However, I have a feeling, within this month, something will happen and he'll be yours."

"Wha-"

"I don't know. It's just a feeling, might not even be true."

"Just a gut feeling."
