Yours For Eternity (Taekook)

57: The End To Everything

Hoseok was staring at his mate, worried as she layed motionless, heart beating slowly.
Her body was failing. He knew it. He just got her back and now she's already leaving him...
He caressed her hair a few times. "If your leaving then I'll only let you go after making sure you belong to me." He whispered and kissed her forehead.
Eyes filled with tears he smiled at her... ignoring his heart which was breaking apart.
"I love you... always have.. always will." He said and dug his canines into her flesh. Marking her.
He carried her and layed her motionless body in a secured corner. Pecking her forehead once again. He stood straight and walked towards his family who were struggling.

"No return?... You mean.." the elder trailed off...
"His soul will be destroyed...but there's a chance for him to survive too. But that depends on him alone." The oldest witch said.
The elder gripped his staff tightly. He watched as the royals began to bleed and suffer. There's no other way. Sacrifices should be made.
"How?" He uttered.
The witches nodded at each other. "Two ways. Both painful. One, burn him alive in red flames... by this the demon will be destroyed completely, but so will the elemental... Two, bleed his heart using a special weapon until every bit of evil leaves his body with each drop of blood he loses and he's left pure. But by this method, the demon won't be destroyed.
He will just leave his body and soul. But here also we have a problem. By losing blood, his body will become too weak. And his soul will leave his body. In both cases if the soul is separated from his body, it will be too much damaged and will be destroyed for ever. With no more return.. meaning he won't be born again..because he is no more." The witches ended.
The elder gasped. This was just too much.
He has known the two mates for so long.
He knows how much they have suffered already. And even after all that.. this! Why was fate so cruel to them..
He could only pity them. The world was in danger. It has to be done.
"We'll do the second one. I assume this one at least could give us a bit of hope."
The witches nodded. One of them closed her eyes and summoned a dagger. The dagger had a golden handle with jewels embedded on them. It also had burning red symbols written on the sharp black blade.
"Make him bleed with this. The blade should enter into his heart." The witch said.
With shivering hands, the elder took hold of the dagger. It was hot. But not so hot as to burn his skin.
He looked at the royal prince who stood frozen in his spot, his eyes not leaving his mate at all. Nodding to himself he walked towards the male.
"Jungkook..." he called him slowly.
Jungkook turned towards him with tears in his eyes.
"E-Elder...my Baby.. He..." Jungkook couldn't form a complete sentence.
"I know Jungkook. It's much worse than you think."
Keeping an eye on the battle going on, the elder told Jungkook everything. By the time he finished, Jungkook had fallen on the floor, his hands covering his face as he sobbed.
Jungkook was angry. He was sad and completely destroyed. It was cruel. Why? Just why? What was his sin? Was he that cruel? Is that why he was meant to suffer? Is that why everything was always snatched from him?
Looking back in his life... He searched.. for anything... Anything that would justify the punishment he was given...
He didn't know. He just didn't know. He watched his baby. His baby so pure and soft...
He waited... years and years.. just for him... only to have him snatched again. It was pure evil. Was he so hated by fate and life?
What did his baby do? He might have sinned.. What did Taehyung do?
He had lost him once. He killed himself once. He had known this pain once. He can't have that again.
Back then, they had given him hope.
Promising him that his baby will be back but now... gone for ever? What will he do then? What was the point if Taehyung wasn't there anymore?
Days before.. He remembered being so happy knowing he was gonna have his own family. He was happy knowing he'll be married to his love. The king and queen... what bullshit.
He wanted to scoff at himself. How pitiful?
How could he ever think.. He will be allowed to have happiness.. He was only allowed to suffer... To be in pain.
"Jungkook... please.." the elder begged him.
"You fucking want me to do this!" He screamed at the man.
His love was already getting snatched from him and this old man wants him to kill his only world with his own bare hands...
"You know you're the only one who'll be able to get near him... no one but you."
Jungkook cried again, his lips trembling.
"Why...cruel.."
The elder also felt the pain. But he didn't have any answers but to believe that their fates were to get separated forever. It was cruel. Evil.
"Jungkook.." the elder sat next to him and pulled him into his embrace. "If it was anything else. No one would have done this. But the world Jungkook... Millions of lives..."
Jungkook pulled back and looked at his mate, then hung his head, letting his tears hit the floor. He laughed... "I'm cursed aren't I? Should have known.. " He looked at the elder and laughed again. "So pathetic... no. no. Don't cry old man. Only I should. No one else... Don't worry. I'll kill him. K-kill my baby. With my own hands..." his voice broke.
Elder embraced him again, crying silently. His heart clenched..." I'm so sorry Jungkook.."
Jungkook pulled back and looked at him.
"Don't be. It's for the world right? I will sacrifice my everything. I'm not selfish. But I want a promise.." Jungkook asked looking straight into the old man's eyes with his blood shot one's, wiping his tears.
"Promise me that I won't have to live in this world a second longer without my Taehyung.
Promise me that along with him.. I'll be gone too. Promise me you'll kill me."
The Elder watched him with wide eyes. He knew what Taehyung was to Jungkook.
He had seen his pain. He knew Jungkook won't survive without him this time.
"Please... I can't without.. I can't..."
Jungkook begged him.
The Elder was left with no other choice than to agree. It was true, a soulmate can't exist with out his other half.
"Thank you..." Jungkook said smiling at the man as he held the dagger in his hand.
"I.. I'll go now."
He stood up. He felt his head spinning.
He didn't have any more strength. With trembling legs he walked towards his mate. This time not to embrace him, not to love him. But to kill him.
He watched as the royals fighting ahead of him as the demon watched with a smirk.
None able to get to him.
"TAE.." he shouted. He had to make him come to him.
He watched as the demon slowly turn towards him. "Come here." He said.
The demon scoffed. "No."
Jungkook held back his tears. "Taehyung I said come here!" He ordered. Brown eyes flashed at him as Taehyung gasped. His eyes were flashing over and over again.
Jungkook knew Taehyung was fighting.
He watched as he took reluctant steps towards him. In seconds he was standing right in front of him. Looking straight into his eyes.
"What do you want." The demon asked.
'Tae. please come.. I want to talk to you baby... please. please..I want you to hear me.. I want to see you tae..' Jungkook pleaded.
He watched as the eyes infront of him flick back and forth again, finally settling on the brown ones. Simply pure...
"Tae...." Jungkook called out cupping his cheeks and softly brushing his cheek bones.
"Kookie.." he called back.
Jungkook couldn't handle it anymore. He broke down again and pulled Taehyung into his arms, hugging him tightly. He opened his mind completely to other. Letting him know what he was about to do.
He heard him gasp. Pain. Guilt. That was all there was left. Taehyung pulled back just to look into his eyes. His eyes filled with tears again. "We lost again kookie.." he said as a drop of tear fell down his cheek.
"Sorry baby... I'm so so ...sorry.." Jungkook began to sob again. Taehyung broke down too.
They held onto each other.
"You know I love you right?"
"Hmm..And I love you... for eternity."
Taehyung replied back and cupped his cheeks. Letting their lips meet. A kiss to pour their feeling. A kiss to know how much they love each other.
Pulling back, Taehyung wiped Jungkook's tears. "Do it... Let it end.. kookie..."
Jungkook looked at other in shock. End?
Was this the end?
He pulled back. No. He can't do this. He can't. "Do it before he take over me again kookie.. please.." Taehyung begged.
Tears were unstoppable. Both cried. Was this it?
"Do it!" Taehyung screamed at him.
"I can't..I can't.. sorry.. I.. I can't..' Jungkook cried falling on his knees.
Taehyung bit his lips. He didn't have much time left. The demon knew what was about to happen. He wants control again. But that won't happen.
"Jungkook. I love you. I love you so damn much." He said before pulling the dagger out of his hand.
"Tae... what-"
Before he could finish, Taehyung smiled at him and stabbed the blade right into his chest, letting it pierce painfully into his heart.
"I... love you.." Taehyung whispered before falling. Jungkook, eyes wide, caught him. He looked at his baby who was still smiling at him painfully.
"Oh my god...baby...why...god! Tae.. why.. baby..I love you. I love you. please..." he broke down holding his baby close to him.
Was this it?
