Dark salvation

Chapter 6

Vegas's pov:

I stared up at the ceiling as I laid in my bed.

My mind was whirling with the new information I found out today.

Ru and Kim are the same person.

The one who sneaked in through my window every night for the past month and the one who suddenly started asking me out to hang out are the same person.

Now that I think about it, they act kind of similar.

The way they sulk when something they dont like happens, and some other mannerisms too.

He's always kind of reminded me of a cat.

I never thought it would be true though.

I've heard of shifters.

They're not very common but there are still a few thousand in almost every country.

I lifted my hand up in the air and stared at it.

Who would've thought...

I wonder if I should tell him...

He said Kinn and Khun know about him being a shifter.

But no one other than pa know about me being one.

I sighed softly and plopped my hand down on the bed.

I've kept it hidden for years after the first time it manifested. Because Pa considers it embarrassing.

That his heir is such a pathetic shifter.

It would probably be different if i were something like a tiger or something.

But no.

I'm just a weak...

I was pulled out of my thoughts when i heard a familiar sound.

I looked toward the window and smiled when I saw him climb over the windowsill and jump down to the floor before heading to the bed.

"Still keeping it up, are we?" I chuckled as he hopped onto the bed and came to lay beside me.

He meowed and nuzzled against my side.

I lifted a hand and patted him gently.

"Someone likes being pampered, I see." I scratched under his ear lightly, making him purr as he leaned into it.

He's much cuter now that I know who he actually is.

The dangerous Kimhan sneaks into my bedroom every night because he enjoys getting pampered like this. No one would believe me if I told them.

I took a deep breath and sat up.

I should...

I want to...

Maybe it won't be that bad...

He looked up at me curiously.

"Can you shift back for a second? I want to show you something." I asked.

He meowed and scooted toward the duvet.

I pulled it up so he could go under it.

I let it fall as he started shifting back.

It fell around his waist as he sat up after shifting.

"What is it?" He looked at me after adjusting it properly around himself.

"You're not the only one with a secret like this." I smiled.

He blinked surprised. "What? You're also...?"
