Sora's arms clenched on Jake's arm tightens closing her eyes. Her hair blown by the swift of the air shifting so quickly in an untraceable length.

Just when you'd thing it's over. The wind disappears in a matter of moments.

"I thought this human would be brave I guess my impressions were true." Jake thought, who's right now grinning at the horrified sight of the human clenching into his arm for dear life when the portal is already gone.

Leaving out an heavy exhale he shook his arm away from her "Open your eyes, we're not in the portal anymore."

Sora's eyes flutter open, her hands tight holding on shaking "Is this-"

"The vampire realm," he interrupts her confirming where they are. Her eyes widden as she checks the interior of the big palace "You're in my palace, you won't see it fully when you're in here" he added, seeing how she's examining the surroundings

"Is he just rich or are humans really poor? Everything in this realm seems luxurious...no wonder the king is arrogant" she glares at him, thinking.

"Wait...can he hear my thoughts? Isn't that a vampire power they have?"

The Sim clears his throat before speaking "I've brought you here to find something," her very glares turned into a gaze of confusion "Find what?"

He sighed, reaching into his black blazer, pulling out the glowing crescent pendant "The truth."

"How am I related to this?" she answered, confusion evidently seen in her eyes "You're parents were vampire hunters. And my family was killed by Zellers, the very same vampires who are trying to kill you" Sora's heart ached from what she heard coming out of his mouth.

"What? N-n-no my parents were doing good for society? They'd never do something like that! How would they, the nicest people I know fight vampires and kill them?" she tries to be indeniel but it is clear she's hesitant to accept the truth.

If anything this was only the very beginning of the truth that is to be revealed.

"If only I could read her mind I would've know what she thinks! Damnit! Why doesn't my telepathy work on her!!" he thought to himself, grunting with heavy breaths quietly watching her, still being indeniel.

"The more you deny, the harder it gets human," he scoffed, holding the pendant in the air "You and I are connected. There's something the Zellers want between us and I seek for your obedience"

"Who are Zellers?" she turns to face him, he can see right through her emotions how much hurt she is of finding out her parent's killers.

But why did they get killed? What was the connection to all this in between that makes Sora's and Jake's tale tangled with one and another?

He didn't answer her question, began walking up the long staircase in the middle of the room heading to an incredibly large spaced library "Get used to this realm. You'll be here till the truth is found."he said, finally breaking the silence, passing her a vampire's book.

Before he could say further, one of the maids Lucy, comes in "Your majesty I'll take care of Ms.Min." he nods at her presence to begin leaving "You know her, don't make it too hard for her to take care you." he spoke, glancing at her sitting down to read the book, from a side of the head and turns away leaving.

"You brought a human to our palace!?!?!" Sunoo exclaimed, his voice echoing quietly among the tall palace walls

"For the sake of the truth, we must cooperate with her." he replied, walking back and forth between the room, his brothers all expressionless but bewilder faces evident in their eyes

"A human of all people? My apologies hyung but I can't do this." Jungwon joined, openly placing his thoughts with the rest mostly agreeing to what he said, nodding.

"She's the key and this is an order!" the Sim exclaimed, the glass in his hand shatters through the floor to his grunt

But this was an odd meeting. Because never before had Jake used his title as their king to them for orders and not brothers. Something was going to happen and they can only hope Jake is prepared for what is to come.

Once the Sim leaves ending the conversation with his brothers, "We should try to understand him. Jaeyun doesn't do irrational things unless there's a reason guys." Sunghoon, the one who stays silent most of the time expressed, earning many odd faces from the rest.

"As the eldest, I support him not the human but him. I trust his decisions." Heeseung, the eldest son said.

"What is this?" Sora stares at the red floral dress hanging on a stand for her to wear.

Realizing it had started to get dark Lucy escorted the Min to her chambers to continue reading and change before she continues.

Touching the soft fabric of the dress, leaves her smiling softly at how beautiful even such an ordinary dress is here "It's so...soft but-" a knock on her door interrupts her before someone came in.

A tall man, pale skin with his black hair in an unexplainable style, sharp features and an impeccable jawline
"Goodness is he heaven?" Sora's mind zones out at how sharp he looks

His head turns her way before facing her, his brown eyes glow red and he flinched slightly keeping his self control before walking towards her.

"He's a vampire too right? Shit I'm dumb ofcourse he is, Sora! But.. he's so.." He gives her a bottle of perfume, no words escaping his mouth as he turned away leaving her room.

"Oh...umm.." she snapped out of zoning out, realizing he's gone. Taking a glance at the perfume she puts it on with how fresh it smelled.
