Midnight Blood

Truce

Music blurred my ears as Taehyung drove on down the back roads and made our way home. He reached for my hand right as we left and it's been sitting limp in his hand the whole time. I kept staring out into the night as my mind replayed those last few words Mom told me.

"I'm going to take your father and sisters down for what they did with or without you, Lilith..."

Tears blurred my eyes as we came closer and closer to home and I suddenly squeezed his hand tight. We came up to the house, parked into the garage and he shut the car off. He unlocked it, opened the doors and we got out as we shut them behind us.

Soon as we stepped into the living room from the side garage door, I finally snapped from everything that just happened. I let go of his hand instantly, stormed back and forth in the middle and I wiped away my frustrating tears that escaped.

"DAMN IT! This whole fucking time she had this plan and didn't even bother to tell me when she first found me! What the actual FUCK!"

"Lilith, love calm down. I know this is a lot to take in-"

I cut him off, "DON'T! You've been talking to my Mom this whole time and didn't tell me either! I should fucking KILL you right now, Taehyung!"

"But you won't, you wouldn't be able to forgive yourself if you did...Because you love me."

My cheeks burned hot as my fangs bared wide and I clenched my fists tight. I did love him, I know I do but I keep lying to myself that I don't and sooner or later, it'll snap.

"I DO NOT!"

Slight hunger brimmed in his eyes as he took a step closer to me and crossed his arms over his chest, I crouched down.

"You do, rather you believe it or not. You can leave, I won't stop you but your heart...is saying otherwise."

I started to attack, "Why you-!"

Only to be stopped by the front door slamming open. Taehyung looked over my shoulder as he dropped his arms and I slowly turned around and my eyes went wide.

"What the hell is she doing here, Taehyung!" Namjoon shouted.

"How long are you going to keep ignoring our warnings?!" Jin added.

I stared wide-eyed as the door shut itself behind them and Taehyung came in front of me, shielding me from their burning rage.

"First off, she's here because she lives with me! And second, I never listened to your warnings from the start!"

"You idiot! Do you have ANY idea what you've done!" Namjoon raged.

"You can't be serious! We are so screwed!" Jin added.

Taehyung was getting angry and I could tell. He bared his fangs as he took a step towards them and left me wide open.

"I told you two she was different! If you will relax for five minutes I'll tell you what's been going on!"

"Why should we?" Jin asked.

"How do we know she didn't corrupt you too?" Namjoon added.

Back and forth they argued, each of them getting closer and closer to turning this into a blood bath and I couldn't stand it much longer. Driving back home, I made my decision and I'm going to help Mom with her plan.

And in order for me to do that, I need Taehyung, Namjoon, Jin, Yoongi and the rest of them on board with me. I let out a heavy sigh as I eased my fangs back and slowly stood up, straightening myself and took a deep breath.

Mom did say she and I aren't enemies with them...

I came from behind Taehyung, jumped in the middle of them three and shot them all a death glare. They stopped instantly and locked their hard eyes with mine.
