Unlasting || Kim Taehyung

40: Regret

You're back at the base again. Bright white lighting shining in from the outside. You glance around slightly, the small table was in the center of the room again, but this time there was no one there. Everything else seemed to be in order. You spin around one more time, but when you make it around, you're met with Taehyung sitting across from you at the table.

"Taehyung?" He doesn't notice you, and you take a step closer.

You manage to get a look at his eyes. This time his eyes were red, and there was no food at the table. His gaze seemed to be locked off in the distance.

"Taehyung, what is it?" He doesn't respond, he can't hear you.

You turn your head to see what he is looking at, and across the room there is a dead body. It was lying lifeless on the ground in a pool of blood. Cautiously you get closer, but it only takes a few steps to recognize who it was.

It's you.

Startled, you jolt backwards, so fast that you stumble and fall to the ground. Your heart was pounding and you could feel your body trembling slightly.

"Y/n?" You jump as you hear your name being called.

You turn your head around to face the vampire at the table, but he isn't looking at you, he is still facing the corpse on the ground. You manage to get to your feet and walk over to Taehyung, his gaze never breaking from the body. You kneel down, looking at his face for any sign that he can see you, reaching your hand out and resting it on his lap. That's when his face finally looks down at you, his red eyes beating into yours.

"Y/n?" his voice is worn out, a single tear falling from his face. "Why didn't you run?"

Your eye's snap open, your head foggy as you struggle to remember what happened. You look at the ceiling, it's not somewhere you recognize, that's when your mind is flooded with memories, chasing after Taehyung, and Taemin grabbing you.

You sit up and look around, you're in a large bedroom, sitting on a soft red couch with your hands and tied together, along with your legs. You take another look at the room, it's extremely luxurious, not anywhere you thought demons would be hiding. In front of the sofa is a small coffee table, flowers and cups laid across it with several other chairs surrounding it, further behind is a large bed, covered in silk red sheets and a canopy, there are various other dressers and shelves covered in nic nacs and decorations, along with a large window behind you, looking down into the cast city. You sit up to try to get a better look to see where you might be.

"Well, if it isn't sleeping beauty."

You turn your attention to find none other than Soyoung standing across the room, and you freeze in your spot, completely terrified to move or say anything. She walks around the small coffee table and steps closer to you, reaching out and running her finger over your cheek. You flinch and squeeze your eye's shut.

"Pathetic," she scoffs, running her finger under your jaw to lift your chin up, and you open your eyes to face her. "Are you scared?" You don't respond, your eyes shift between hers. "You should be, but don't worry. We're not going to kill you. Not yet." She backs away, and you finally take a breath of relief, enough to give you the courage to speak.

"What did you do to Taemin?" She eyes you up and down.

"Whatever do you mean?" She tilts her head to the side with a smirk.

"He... he attacked me. What did you do to him?"

She leans back down, and you feel a chill run down your spine. "I didn't do anything." She runs her finger down your nose. "You know... I could let my boys have their fun with you if I wanted." You swallow, nerves shooting throughout your body. "But for now, I'm just going to let him worry for a bit longer." You can feel your heart pounding in your chest. Her eyes trial down your neck, and catch the glint of the ruby dangling. She takes it in her fingers, her long, sharp nails catching your eye.
