a/n the pic up top is what they're wearing because i didn't put it in the last chapter

-나는 그들의 것, 그들은 내 꺼야-

she stopped trembling and i heard her heart skip a beat

🌷

"areum, do you want to know who you are?" he spoke out

her eyes widened when she realized what he said, her head slowly turned to him again, "w-what?" she stuttered

-areum's pov-

"w-what?"

i thought i was... just abandoned. nothing special about it. i thought i was just a regular person. how does he know things about me that i myself don't know?

his words shook me to my core, maybe this time i'll have real answers. maybe, after wondering for so long about who i was, i'll finally find out. maybe my nightmares will stop. finally

i'll know who i am...

but how does he know? how does the man that almost killed me know?

"do you want to know the truth about your parents?" he repeated the question

"y-yes" i stuttered, seungcheol made me look up at him by touching my arm, "sit down on the couch" he whispered to me

i reluctantly got out of his hold and slowly went to sit on the couch, trying to not get close to kai, he chuckled as he watched me walk. he too started to walk and sat on the couch across from me, taemin sitting behind him and seungcheol behind me too

"where do i start?" he chuckled, earning a small groan from seungcheol, "just get to the point" he huffed

"fine fine" he waved his hand softly in the air, making me flinch. the last time he waved his hands he sent mingyu flying to the wall, he terrifies me to my core

"your real name is moon selene, you were born to bae suji and lee jongsuk, they are your parents" he spoke with a bored expression and tone

"they're my parents" i whispered to myself, repeating his words

"they were common people, part of the lower working class and they were extremely poor." he laid back on the couch, relaxing. "areum you are the reincarnation of moon selene, the goddess of moonlight, and i can sense when i are reborn, so to speak"

"h-how do you k-know that? how c-can you sense that?" my words were shaky

"because my real name is ambriogo, i was the first vampire and selene was the woman i loved, we are connected for eternity. one day your memories of being selene will comeback and when that day comes you should come and find me, because you will no longer be areum. you will be a completely different person" he stared me to down, every once in a while looking at my fidgety hands, he had a determined face. he wants my memories to come back, he wants the woman he loves to come back

"that won't happened, i'll never leave them" i whispered underneath my breath, i looked down at my hands, watching them shake

"that's what you believe" he smirked, "your parents were so poor, that when they found out they were having you, they didn't know what to do so when i came to say that i would buy you from them, your father and grandmother said yes in a heart beat" he smirked

they really said yes so quickly? did they think i was some object? they really didn't love me did they

my eyes began to water at the new information, i felt worthless as unloved, like an object

"your mother wanted to keep you but could, your grandmother wouldn't allow her to keep you" he continued, "they say you were born you were supposed to be taken to me, but clearly something went wrong. your father was meant to take you but he never arrived. i sent my men to find you but you were nowhere to be found" he sat up and rested his elbows on his knees, "he must have left you at the side of the road somewhere. later on i found out he hid away in a motel for a week before he left you in a ditch and they found you" he pointed to seungcheol

"why d-did he now give me to y-you?" i muttered looking at kai, "he must've not wanted me to have you. in the end they didn't receive the money and they most likely died by now. i wouldn't know because they never found your father again" he shrugged off

so he might still be alive, i felt a small spark of hope form inside of me

"what about her mother and grandmother?" cheol suddenly spoke out, startling me a bit

"they disappeared too, the last i heard of them they went to live in jeju" he laid back down on the couch again, man spreading in the process

"why don't you go by the name ambriogo?" my voice was no longer shaking as much, i had calmed down. i was no longer shaking or sweating profusely but my hands were still fidgety

"that name no longer fits into society, i am from 20 B.C. i changed my name to jongin and then to kai. i felt it suited me more" he smiled softly

"how do you know areum is who you're talking about seungcheol aske from behind me

"i knew when i tasted her blood. i can sense it"

when he said that i touched my neck to where the wound used to be, it hurt for a moment. like his teeth were digging into my skin again

"now that that's over, can i join the party?" he asked standing up and with a bright smile, i could sense seungcheol stares, glaring at kai furiously

i looked behind kai to look at taemin, his expression never changed through the entire conversation

kai and taemin have always been a mystery to me but more so taemin. i know nothing about him and he seems very reserved and cold. like wonwoo a few years ago

"seungcheol, relax. i won't touch her" he stared back at cheol, "c-cheol it's okay" i stood up and looked at him with a reassuring smile

i honestly think he has no ulterior motive. I don't know why but he seems a little more trustworthy than before, he huffed for a moment before speaking, "fine, but i'm keeping my eyes on you" he glared

🌷

about an hour has passed and people started entering the mansion, first it was a group of seven guys who i've met before at the celebration for kai

(a/n imagine wonho is there. i couldn't find a picture of all seven that fit what i was going for, but he is there)

the guys were very kind towards me but they were wary around kai and taemin. they treated me with kindness, which was completely different from their outward appearance. they all look mean and rough but their attitude is gentle

then it was a group of eleven guys. they looked much younger than most of the people already there, but i was sure they were just as mature as the rest. soonyoung had told me before people started coming that was everyone invited was a vampire

they too were gentle towards me and it was enjoyable trying to get to know them since they looked a little older than me

i had noticed that so far it was only men that have entered the house, but then from the window looking out towards the drive way a black limo pulled up and nine women got out of the car. they all looked elegant and majestic with every stride they took

they walked into the house and they took my breath away, especially the girl with short red hair, (a/n jihyo is ✨bootiful✨) the guys greeted them like it had been a long time since they've seen them

they're beautiful...

later on, two cars pulled up on the drive way and thirteen men got out of them, six in one and seven in the other. all the people that had been coming in were all beautiful. i guess that's just what happens when you're an ancient vampire

(a/n i've only just recently started to get into astro but jinjin is so good looking oml)

but right after they walked in, before i could even introduce myself, more people walked in. this time it was someone i recognized

it was kookie and six other men who i've only met once before. the men had an intimidating aura about them. different from the aura they had before. but when i went up to them to say hello their eyes softened

"areum-ah" jungkook said rather loudly when he saw me, he ran to give me a hug and i gladly accepted it. it was nice seeing him again

"kookie!" i said back, "happy birthday, birthday girl" he smiled brightly, i chuckled a little, "my birthday isn't for a while" "what do you mean? it's in 6 hours" he teased, looking down at his watch

i turned to the guys behind him and bowed slightly, "hello" i said, "you don't have to bow, it's alright. you don't have to be formal with us" one of them spoke, i think his name was yoongi

"oh okay" i chuckled slightly

the sound of the door opening again made me turn my head to see who had come in, it was a group of very young men, they actually looked my age, like high schoolers

but what stuck out to me was that i recognized two of them, i met one of them when i went ice skating with wonwoo, i think he was called jungwon

"j-jungwon?" i spoke out in a small voice, not sure of it was him

"hello nice to see you again" he smiled back when he heard me, "you're a vampire?" i whispered to myself, not audible to him

i could sense jeonghan and wonwoo's presence behind me, "what're you doing here?" wonwoo spoke out with narrow eyes and a cold expression, "chan hyung invited us" another on of the. spoke

"you know him?" this time it was jeonghan who spoke, "yeah, he's the guy i told you about when we went ice skating"

"how do you know chan oppa?" i spoke to him, "we met when you lived in france, but before i met you" jungwon responded with a kind smile

"areum, go and call chan" jeonghan ordered me, he had a wary expression as he looked at jungwon, "nothing personal, we're just making sure" jeonghan spoke with a fake smile

i quickly hurried to find chan, going through the small crowd of people, i thought this was supposed to be a small gathering. now there were about sixty people, not counting myself. i walked out to the backyard to see him talking to eunwoo and one of the girls that came. "chan oppa" i said as i walked up to him

"what's up?" "they need you at the front door, some people you invited are here but jeonghan op-" i corrected myself, remembering he didn't want me to call him oppa, "jeonghan wants to make sure you know them"

"one of the guys name is jungwon" i said, a little out of breath from jogging around the house to find him, "all right i'll go see what all the fuss is about" he spoke, bowing to the others and leaving. i too did the same, bowing to them and leaving as well

i tried to walk in the same pace as him but my heels wouldn't allow me to, they had given me blisters a little under my achilles heel, making it hard to move properly. so i chose to not go back, i'm sure they'll take care of it

i sat down on the kitchen isle where there wasn't many people, the only others there were one of the girls and kai. the girl was drinking wine and staring deeply into the cup. she was the one i found breathtaking (a/n ahem ✨jihyo✨), she didn't seem to acknowledge my presence, too focused on the drink in her hand

kai on the other hand was sitting in the corner of the room, he seemed to be spaced out, also too focused in his thoughts to see my presence

but when the woman walked out the kitchen and closed the door with a slight bang, it pushed kai out of his thoughts and realized i was in the room

he stood up from the chair in the corner and walked towards me. every step he took made me more anxious and nervous. i've never been alone with him, i don't even want to imagine what he would do

i tried to stand up and walk out the kitchen, keywords: tried. he grabbed into my arm before i could get even one step away from my seat, he had a sly smirk on his face, "now where are you going?" he spoke, his iconic smirk still on his face

"w-what do you want?" i stuttered, my hands sweating. "nothing i just want to talk to you" he urged me to sit down with his hand, he moved to the other side of the counter. he took one of the wine bottles that contained blood and poured himself a cup, moving to sit down next to me afterwards

all his actions make me more uneasy and the thought of drinking blood made me feel queasy. sure i had watched the guys drink it in front of me, but it still made my weak stomach feel bad

he took a sip and looked over at me, i couldn't bring myself to look back at him. so he softly grabbed my cheek and forced me to look into his eyes, making me tremble

"don't be afraid love, i won't hurt you. as much as i want to drink from you I love you too much to do that again" he smiled softly, looking down at my lips

"what d-do you want to t-talk about?" i stuttered out, "nothing really, i just want to get to know the areum they know you as before you turn into selene" he took another sip from his cup

"what do you want to k-know?" "what's your passion? what do you love for?" he spoke, for once he seemed almost kind

"i-" i think this is the toughest question i've ever been asked... how do i answer this?

my entire life i've never really had a passion. i've just been living. not a dead life but i've just been living and i still have happiness despite not having a passion. for a long time i thought it was ballet or painting, they were my first loves... dancing and art. but when that faded i never found another to love but i'm still happy...

"-don't have one, i used to but now i'm just enjoying life without any specific passion or dream" i mumbled, not sure what his reaction would be, "that's fair, my passion has been finding you and having my selene back" he spoke gulping down the rest of his drink

"you must've really loved her" i whispered, "she's the only woman i've loved" he smiled and got up to pour himself another drink, catching my curiosity

"w-what does it taste like, t-the blood?" i uttered out, "it tastes like..." he thought for a moment, "a very sweet nectar, it's intoxicating and indescribable" he stared at his cup, "much like yours" he smirked looking at me. once again the area over my wound hurt for a moment, i put my hand on my neck

"but virgins blood is always more sweet" his eyes were filled with a hint of lust and mischief, "wh-what?" i muttered, he walked next to me, placing a hand on my shoulder, slowly moving it to my neck

i was frozen in place, i couldn't move from my spot. move body! get up and walk away quick!!

my eyes were filled with panic and fear of what he would do to me

"relax love, like i said before i won't hurt you. i didn't say i wouldn't tease you however" he had a smug look on his face, "please back away" my voice surprisingly calm

the smug face he wore went away and was replaced by a cold one, he walked away with his wine glass and walked off, "see you around, selene" his voice was dark and so were his eyes

when he closed the door behind him i let out a breathe i didn't tanks i was holding in

he's terrifying...

a/n also stray kidz is also there. i only just started getting into all these groups but they're all so amazing

a/n also i realized i made the grave mistake of making momo a maid in like chapter seven or something, pretend that momo here is someone else. i know its a plot hole but please ignore it until i find the patience to fix itedit: i changed momo to somi in the earlier chapters
