Demon's Prey

Chapter 23

~Jungkook pov~

"Omg, are you ok-....... Tae?"

My eyes widened as I realized Taehyung was in front of me. I happily hugged him.

"Ahhhhhh!" He yelled out. I gasped and pulled away. I looked at him. He's bleeding, everywhere really bad.

"S-safe house.... Get m-me there." He struggled to say. I nodded and helped him stand. I helped him to the safe house. The door was still open, so we walked inside.

"Oh my god." Hoseok exclaimed. He closed the door and helped me get Taehyung to the bathroom. Hoseok and I cleaned him up. We changed his clothes and cleaned his wounds. Hoseok dressed them.

We helped him to the bedroom. He lied in bed, breathing heavily as he struggled to breathe and keep his eyes open.

I looked at Hoseok. He was looking at Taehyung sadly, like, very sadly. A look he never has.

"Can't you just heal him?" I asked. Hoseok shook his head.

"No. His injuries were caused by another demon, I can't heal him. No demon can." Hoseok sighed.

"What will?" I asked.

"A human soul." Hoseok answered.

"How do we get one, without killing someone?" I asked.

"There's no way." Hoseok said sadly, tears running down his cheek. I looked at Taehyung, my heart dropping.

"H-Hobi, let me talk to J-Jungkook... alone." Taehyung said. Hoseok nodded and left the room, closing the door.

"Sit down, here." Taehyung said. I walked to the bed and sat down. Taehyung reached for my hand. I gave it to him. He intertwined our fingers.

"I missed you so much, Baby." He said. I smiled.

"I love you, and,..... I'm s-so sorry for getting you in all of this s-s-shit." He said, coughing. I felt tears stream down my face.

"I love you too. I've missed you, a-and, It's okay. I love you, and you are a demon, I love t-that part of you and I will deal with the consciences forever, for you." I cried.

"Tae, please d-don't die." I cried.

"I just got y-you back, I c-can't l-lose you." I cried harder.

"J-Jungkook, you'll find someone else. You'll be happy again. You'll m-move o....on." He said. I shook my head.

"No! I won't! You're the one I love. You're the one I want. You're the one I can't live without! You're the one I... I want to grow old with." I screamed as I cried. Taehyung tightened the grip he has on my hand. I cried as I lightly rested my head on his chest. He weakly ran his fingers through my hair.

"P-please, stay alive..." I begged. Taehyung didn't reply. He ran his fingers through my hair silently and calmly.
