Body

Chapter 7

She gracefully stood up. Her red eyes still on me. I felt horribly exposed as I was just in my boxers, completely frozen in place.

"You shouldn't be surprised to see me V" her voice was so quiet it made the whole room feel colder. She stepped forward. The light illuminating her flawless face. Her lips a dark red it looked black. Her long black hair so straight it framed her snow-white face.

"So, the moment you leave me you decide to have fun with someone else?" her smile terrified me. I knew she was upset with me. I didn't know what to say. I was completely stunned.
"Oh? You're giving me the silent treatment too?"

"Just leave me alone" I managed to say quietly.

"You know I'll never do that. I own you." She had somehow closed the gap between us. "And I don't like to share." she said in my ear.

"Why don't you come on out" she said in her demanding way.
I heard shuffling behind me.

No.

Leave him alone.

He walked up to her. He clearly didn't want to do this, but she was too powerful. Her commands couldn't be avoided. She grabbed his throat and lifted him of the ground. The sounds of him choking was too much for me to bear.

"Stop it!" I yelled.

"Shut up" She commanded sharply. And with that I couldn't speak. I tried, and nothing would happen.

"Maybe I should take you in" she said to Jimin "All three of us could play together if that's what V is into. Wouldn't that be nice of me?"

"I-I'll kill you" Jimin choked.

Her smile widened. She threw him, his body slamming against the wall. He coughed gasping for air when he fell to the floor.

"Killing me would only kill everyone I turned including your new friend V" she was right. That's how the virus works. It somehow connects you to the pure blood that changes you. I saw it happen before. She had once killed a pure blood herself. When he died all his minions dropped dead too. I took a step forward to stop her from hurting Jimin further. She just raised her hand and I couldn't move a muscle.

She crouched down to Jimin. "I don't like how you changed him. Do you know how hard it was to break him? Because of you I need to do it all over again."

Then out of nowhere Jimin stabbed her. She moved away but he got her in the leg. The object was strange but still sank deep. She didn't react to the pain but instead snarled at him with intense hatred. I tried with all the strength I had to move, but it was impossible. I couldn't even scream.

She lunged at Jimin her claws slicing through his flesh. His blood splattered my skin. She was about to attack him again when she froze. She turned to face the front door. It was kicked down but before whoever was outside could enter she was gone.

A tall man walked through the doorway, gun ready and pointed at me.

"Hands up!" he yelled at me. I recognize his deep voice.

RM.

I did as he said. Now that she was gone I was able to move.

"He's not the one who did this!" Jimin yelled applying pressure to his wounds.

"I got your distress call." RM added and motioned for other people to enter the apartment. They went to Jimin to help him.

"Who are you?" he asked me gun still pointed at me.

"Tae" I said more concerned for Jimin.

"Trust me RM. He's on our side."

RM studied me for a moment and then lowered his weapon. I quickly went to Jimin's side. The medics were tending to him.

"You have a panic button?" I asked.

"Yeah, I pressed it when I heard you talking to someone while I was in bed." His voice was shaky. He was trying not to show the pain he was in.

"Why did you attack her then? You didn't need to do that if you knew RM was on his way." Why was he so reckless?

"I'm sure Jimin had a reason. He never fights unless there's a motive behind it." Rm said while checking the apartment in case Crimson was lurking.

Jimin gave me the object he used to stab her.

It was a syringe.

"I got her DNA." he smiled.

And with that, he became the coolest person I know.
