"I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream...."

"Alright then," your mother said trying to swallow her surprise, "Jaejung, you've binded Taehyung to your soul." and I gaped, raising her hand to silence me she continued. "You may not have meant to, but you have and he's a part of you, permanently. That also means if he dies, you die and vice versa. Also, he gets his power from your blood, that's why he drinks it. If he goes to long without it bad things will happen." she said and I glared at him.

"Why did I bind him to my soul, I just said what I read in the book." you whined and your mom paused,

"Book?" and I nodded, "What book, I never gave you a book." she said and you paused, before getting up and running to my room. Finding the sleek black leather bound spell book I brought it back,

"This book. It was on my night table a couple of months ago a page tabbed for the binding ritual." I explained and my mom's face paled.

"Where did you get this book." she hissed,

"It-it just appeared on my nightstand, I promise!" I said taking a seat and she sighed.

"This book is the ancient Grimoire, I don't know how this ended up in you room but..." she trailed off opening it to find my name written in the cover "did you write your name here?" she demanded and I shook my head quickly.

"No, I figured you were letting me borrow it so I didn't write anything in it." I mumbled and she paused,

"I've never even seen the book in the flesh, just heard of it...." she murmured and Taehyung groaned and stretched.

"That's because that book is mine. And I don't know how it got to her but it's mine." he growled and snatched it back before dropping it as it burned him. "Ow what the f-" he started before it glowed my name appearing embossed on the cover in small print.

"That book is Jaejung's now, she opened it, used a spell, to summon you. you know what that means. It's hers, it chose her." my sister said and I rolled your eyes.

"Oh please Soojin why would an ancient grimoire choose me out of all people?" I asked and she shrugged.

"Beats me but it chose you, and if i'm correct, tradition is you have to leave tomorrow morning to live on your own..." she said glancing at Taehyung, "with him. He's bound to your soul. Meaning he'll always be with you, he won't be able to stray very far. Plus if you can figure out his native language you can keep him under control better." she said massaging her temples, "I'll help you pack your potions and stuff, you did want to move to Seoul right, I have a shop you can start off in. The apartments aren't too expensive too, you've been saving up right?" she asked and I nodded sighing,

"Come on then, let's go pack." I muttered to my mother walking up the stairs. Taehyung just stood there, wanting to go back to his realm, but the further I got the harsher the feeling of something he couldn't put his finger on was.

"You feel a tug in your chest?" Jackson asked floating up next to him and he just nodded slightly confused, "That's the bond. You've never even been summoned probably, you're just been binded to her so it's effects are stronger in the new stages. I wouldn't stray too far from Jaejung right now, and I would definitely not go back to the Underworld, Old Luci wouldn't be to pleased to find out his son is binded by a witch, a soul bond too." he murmured chuckling to himself.

Jaejung just opened her suitcase that was already half full with clothes. Adding more she left that to her mother finding her potions set and opening a smaller suitcase for that, her cauldron going in along with her carefully packed and bagged stores of ingredients that she had been collecting for years. After she was done packed she yawned and her mom left her to sleep, changing out of the ritual clothes Jaejung hung them up and turned to find some more comfortable clothes before she heard a low whistle.

Turning she saw Taehyung standing in a corner leaning against the wall eyes raking up your figure and she yelped in surprise. "Get out!" she shrieked as she threw a pillow at him face bright red yanking up sweats and throwing a tshirt on, "aish, so rude." she mumbled when he didn't move. "We don't leave until tomorrow morning. I'm sleeping good night." she then crawled under the covers and fell asleep ignoring how the boy scowled.

She hoped that when she woke up it was just a dream, she didn't actually bind Lucifer's son to her soul, that she would get a nice demon like Jackson, one that wouldn't cause trouble.

When she woke up, she found it wasn't a dream and Taehyung was waiting by the bags he had brought down to the front door with some threatening from Soojin to get him to cooperate. Sighing she nodded "let's go." she mumbled as she helped put your suitcases in the car only to find out that you were short one seat. Soojin and Jackson sitting in the front, her suitcases taking up one seat there was one left, well two technically but she'd practically be sitting on Taehyung's lap anyways.

"Just get into the car you big babies." Jackson said pushing Taehyung down and Jaejung on top of him before shutting the door and getting in.

"Bye mom, bye dad I'll, see you later." she called out the open window and they nodded tears in her mom's eyes because her baby girl was growing up.

"You're so heavy!" Taehyung complained and I just elbowed him in the ribs

"Yah, shut it demon." I grumbled and Soojin chuckled shaking her head.

"He's so tame for, Lucifer's son." she murmured to Jackson hoping the music would mask their conversation.

"It's because he's confused. He doesn't know what exactly is going on. He's never even been summoned Soojin," he said pausing as they watched you squabble with him. "He'll probably be more bratty next week, he could be dangerous. Scratch that he is dangerous he's Old Luci's son after all, he might try and hurt Jaejung, or..." he shook his head. That would never happen. "We'll have to keep an eye on her." he murmured more to himself than to Soojin.

After more arguing and some well spent spells Soojin snapped jerking the car into park on the side of the road. "Damnit you two! Get along or you're walking to Seoul!" she screeched and we both froze nodding. After muttering something about you two both being major brats she started driving again.

Grumbling after being yelled at by my sister I settled down and sunk into the demon's regrettably cold lap shivering. "Why is your body so cold, don't you live in hell. With fire and lava and stuff?" I hissed and he snorts

"Yes, I do but not all demons are warm, study up." he said smirking and I just glared at him grabbing a blanket and pulling it over me to keep me warm. Falling asleep I just sighed contently and decided that Taehyung's lap wasn't too bad, it was actually pretty comfortable but I'd never say that out loud of course.

A/n: For those of you who are patiently awaiting for the royal au part to come into play, fear not it's coming up soon~ 

Also I'm sad because my other FF 'almost' was going so well, and then I ran out of inspiration so it's just sitting there in my documents waiting for me to continue typing it *cries*  but luckily I had a great portion of it prewritten before I posted it so a new chapter should be out in a couple of days!

Have a great day, 

Xin~
