Demon's Prey

Chapter 22

~Jungkook pov~ 

(4-month time skip)

Four months and I'm finally allowed to go outside. I have a limit of how far I can go, which is fair I guess.

Everyday, I try to explore a bit more than what I'm allowed, just to see if I can figure out where me and Hoseok are, but, I never see anything that I recognize.

It's always pretty here. There are no thunderstorms or snowstorms. It's always sunny. Never cloudy. Butterflies are always flying and animals are always walking around, enjoying life.

Except me. I'm hating life. I just want my life and world back. I want Taehyung.

Hoseok still doesn't really know where they all are. All he knows is that they aren't on earth, so humanity has been spared.

I sat outside, quietly enjoying the mostly quiet work around me.

The soft sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, the relaxing sound of the running river behind the house, and the soft touch of the grass made me relaxed and calm.

"Jungkook, come inside for dinner." Hoseok called from the house. I opened my eyes and looked up at the sky. The stars and moon shined brightly. I sighed and sat up.

"Okay." I called back. I stood and began to walk towards the house.

Without getting too far from where I was lying, I heard a noise. I froze, thinking it was an animal about to eat me. I turned around and saw nothing. But I could hear low pants and grants.

I cautiously walked towards the sound. Half of me thought I was being stupid cause this is how people die in horror movies. But the other half forced me to follow the noise.

I looked behind some shrubs and saw a person on the ground. My eyes widened.

"Omg, are you ok-....... Tae?" I questioned as I got closer to the body.
