Blood and Roses

Chapter-1

Hey guys!
I've decided to continue this as a separate story. Those who have already read it in my one shot serie, 'Home Is Where You Are', you know what it's about and can skip to the second chapter.😁

For those who is reading this for the first time, this is a vampire verse (my first time writing this verse) which I have had written as a one shot. But I enjoyed this trope so much that I wanted to write more and asked the lovely readers if I should continue it. I got a thumb's up from them!😍 So, here I am. Please read the tags before starting. I'll update the tags as the story develops.

Important: in my own headcanon, ZZ calls JingYu 'Jin' or 'JinJin'. It's my own creation, not reality.

Please comments/votes if you like it and want to read more of it.💗

Hope you enjoy the read.

Blood and Roses

“Well well well. Took you longer than I thought.”

JingYu stood at the doorstep as the stooping figure slowly straightened up. The words flew past him for  all his senses were zeroed on the writhing body on the bed.

No.

“Like what you see? Mmmm..he smells divine.”

It took less than a second for JingYu to drag the younger vampire by the throat and slam him to the wall.

Sneering mouth showing the growing fangs, elongated nails digging into the windpipe, eyes becoming crimson, heralding his transformation.

“How many times Athair warned us not to bring humans to the Lair, Chao?” He spat the words to Chao’s face, “On what authority do you dare to disobey him?”

Instead of backing away, Chao pushed himself to JingYu’s clutch more and smiled like a Cheshire cat, “But he is not just any human. He is The Human, JingYu. He’s your human.”

JingYu knew he had made a damning mistake when his mask of indifference fell at those words; he tried to collect himself immediately but it was too late already. Chao got his confirmation and cackled in glee.

“My my, never thought I’d see a day when the mighty Huang JingYu will be conquered by a filthy little human!” His face twisted in disgust, “Does Athair know that his son’s loyalty doesn’t lie with him anymore?”

“You. Know. Nothing.” JingYu bared his teeth, “Nothing at all. I am not answerable to a cretin like you. It is only on Athair’s command I am here now. You break the rules of the Coven, endanger the Lair and I will not think twice to slit your throat.” His grip became unyielding, as if to emphasise, “In fact, I will enjoy every minute of it.”

But no matter what he told Chao to convince him, JingYu knew that the reason he was here chocking this cunning bastard to death was not because of his duties to the Coven. It was because of that small body lying on the bed, unaware of all the devilry surrounding him. The reason was his Zhou.

As if sensing JingYu’s thought on him, a moan came from the bed, “P-ple-please...”

JingYu’s head snapped towards the sound. Chao leered at him, “Hear that? That’s for me. He’s begging for me, JingYu. Your precious little boy is be-“ His head was smashed to the wall.
