Gods and Demon Assassins

48. They're back

JENNIE

"If you don't open your eyes, I'll kill you, Manoban!"

"Should we tell her?" I heard Nayeon said behind me, I don't know who she was talking to but I whipped my head back and threw murderous glare at her. "She died because saving a deity isn't that easy, saving you and Lucas equivalent to 6 people and Demon can save two people only but she can still live again." She said and looked down to Jiyong.

"She's r-right." Jiyong said and he smiled weakly. "Help me get to my daughter."

Jeongyeon and Tzuyu quickly held him, even though Tzuyu feels so squeamish because of Jiyong's being armless, she still helped my father in law.

"Are you sure about this?" Jisoo asked, holding Chaeyoung in her arms, alive but still unconscious.

"Y-yeah, unless you want to do it?" Jiyong chuckled.

"You know that I can't." Jisoo said.

"You can, b-but you'll die."

"And you're not?" Jisoo scoffed. She looked up to Seulgi and said, "Favor Seul, bring Chaeyoung to our room." She said and Seulgi nodded before she bent down to get Chaeyoung and Ryujin took Amethyst.

When we heard the door shut upstairs, Jisoo sat down next to Jiyong and gestured her finger to Lucas. My son wiped his tears before he sat on Jisoo's lap, facing his grandpa.

"Do you think you can do it?" Jisoo asked my son and that's when I started to chimes in. There's no way in hell I would let my son try what my sister wants him to do. He died and just got saved. I don't want him to risk his life again.

"I'll do it." I said and put down Lisa's head on the floor and stood. I walked across and sat down next to Jisoo and Jiyong, put my hand in Jiyong's head and took a deep breath to steady my heartbeat. "Let's start."

"W-wait." Jiyong said, which caused me to open my eyes and see him staring at IU. "Just h-hold me until Lisa returns and let go if she's–."

"No." I firmly refused and he looked at me, his eyes were in shock but softened after.

"Look Jen. My w-wife died because I didn't do my best t-to save her and I w-want to be with her."

"But how about Lisa? How about your grandchildren? How ab—."

"They'll be fine, you are with them. And I k-know they will u-understand me." Jiyong said, his lips stretching into a small smile and he looked up to everyone. "Please, t-take care of my family."

"D-dad." Vamp Jennie said, her voice shaking. "W-we can turn L-lisa into a vampire."

"No, you c-can't. Lisa will refuse to do that, not because s-she doesn't want to but she'll become a rogue vamp and she'll be one of your enemies."

"But y-you'll d-die." Vamp Jennie started to cry, Jiyong is her dad in her own world and I know that it's hard for her to see that her dad will die in front of her even though our Jiyong isn't her real dad in our world.

"It's ok, I'll be with my two wives." Jiyong chuckled and the squad laughed, though it was too soft to even call a laugh but they did laugh. "Ella, come h-here."

Vamp Ella was about to move but my daughter pushed her on the side and rolled her eyes. "He called for me, now move." 

"B word." Vamp Ella hissed and she turned to wrap her arms on Vamp Lisa.

"H-hey, my little demon fighter." Jiyong rebukes and chuckles softly. "P-promise me that you'll take care of your twin brother."

"I w-will, even if he's always annoying, I will." Ella said and I could tell she wants to hug Jiyong, but she's hesitating about the missing arm.
