Depraved

The Hunter Helps

WARNING FOR ICK AND STUFF- THIS CHAPTER IS CREEPY

The morning light started to come through the door before anyone moved.

Changbin swung into action, slamming it shut and kneeling in front of Chan. "Hey leech? Uhh... Chuh-Chan?"

The blond blinked, staring at the ground.

"Chan!"

The silence was like a tomb. Only Jisung's choked sobs and Seungmin's hard, wet breathing broke it. Changbin shook Chan's stiff shoulder, but he didn't move. Then he noticed the blood.

"You're hurt!" He tried to bend within his sightline, but it didn't register. "Chan! You're bleeding everywhere!"

There wasn't a response.

"Fucking-" Changbin looked around, ran to the kitchen and back. "Bite me. Before you're gone. Come on, bite me."

He leaned over, trying to put his throat under his nose but Chan either didn't notice or didn't care.

"Fine. You're going to make me be the dramatic one, aren't you?" He lifted the small knife he'd found in one of the drawers, making sure that it wasn't serrated. With a wince he dragged the metal over his wrist, gawking at the amount of blood that immediately started pouring out.

Chan blinked, and then he was on him, sucking hard at the opening. He didn't stop until Changbin was light-headed and pulling away. The vampire licked the cut enough to seal it completely over.

There was a question in his eyes, but Changbin had no answer. "Go. It's daylight. Feed them and rest."

"I need... to get Minho-"

"Chan? You NEED to rest. Okay? He's gone."

"Don't say that. Don't YOU say that-"

"Baby-" Hyunjin suddenly whispered, and Chan was beside him in a moment, nicking his wrist with a thick fang and letting the taller drink. As soon as he could, Hyunjin pulled away, getting to his feet as awkwardly as a newborn calf. Changbin found himself steadying him, eyes roving over the blood on the floor and wetting the leg of his pants.

"Is that wound sealed?"

"Yes. Ah. Felix didn't..." he stumbled to the stairs, stooping to check on Seungmin first. "He's going to need blood Channie- and uh, Felix didn't get up."

Chan eyed the pale human and Changbin huffed, dragging the neck of his shirt over. "Just don't fucking kill me."

"I won't."

Innie peeled himself out of Jisung's grip, waiting until Changbin weakly tapped the eldest's arm before speaking.

"Drink from me next."

"Innie, fox, I-"

"Please. Let me try. Just try?"

Chan was hesitant, but he finally slipped a steadying hand around his nape and bit down on the side of his thin throat, drinking until the younger put a hand on his chest. He sealed the bite a little more than he usually would, just because of how cold he'd become.

Chan flipped Seungmin over and administered blood the same way he had for Hyunjin. The darker-haired vampire was in a terrible mood upon waking, drinking just enough to heal and getting right to his feet. Everyone avoided his wild eyes.
