Epilogue Moving around to put his clothes on was a little on the painful side. Minho cringed until he stood straight, buttoning his jeans. They were the same clothes he wore yesterday, and had slept in, but he had nothing else and he certainly wasn't going to hang around naked.
He was wondering, after a while, if Siwon was ever coming back. He carefully sat down on the bed, once again considering the possibility of escape.
Then Heechul walked in. Minho tensed up, looking at him nervously. Heechul smirked, "Siwon isn't around?"
Minho shook his head, not quite sure he was allowed to talk.
"Good. I've got some orders for you." Heechul said, stepping to stand in front of Minho, who looked at him with even more fear at the mention of orders - nothing Heechul hadn't seen a million times. He reached down, gripping Minho's chin. "Now you say, 'What do you want me to do?'"
"What do you want me to do?" Minho softly repeated,
"If I can feel all the stress rolling off of Siwon, I know you can. You're half the problem yourself, so you're gonna have to get rid of it." His hand fell, and he lightly slapped Minho's cheek. "Get the picture?"
"Do you want me to be happy, so he'll be happy?" Minho asked, truly uncertain.
There was a pause before Heechul laughed, "That's a joke, right?"
Minho's blank stare was the answer, which made Heechul laugh even more.
"No, no." Heechul said in his laugh, which slowed as he slapped Minho once again on the cheek, and picked up again as he continued, "When he comes in here, you're going to suck his dick."
Minho grabbed the bed next to him, his eyes huge, and he probably scooted at least an inch back away from Heechul. "I can't.."
"What the hell do you mean you can't!? You have a mouth, don't you?" Heechul laughed more still, "I know you've seen a cock get sucked before."
Minho gritted his teeth at the crude words, and he shook his head. "I don't think he wants that.."
"Hey, did I ask for your opinion?" Heechul reached out, bending and grabbing the sleeve of Minho's shirt so he could pull him a bit closer. "You wanna disobey?"
"No." was Minho's immediate answer.
"Then when he comes in here," Heechul said, his hand dropping from Minho's sleeve and groping between his legs. "You reach between his legs and squeeze, and tell him you wanna fucking suck it."
Minho jerked away from Heechul's touch, cringing. "I.."
"If he isn't telling me all the wonderful little details next time I see him, I'm coming for you." Heechul said, straightening up. He laughed again as he walked back towards the door, "Have fun, kid."
The door slammed loudly behind him, and Minho exhaled, then wondered when it was that he began to hold his breath..

It was the taste of blood. It was too good, it had turned him into a monster. He was swallowing it down until he realized that he was, and he fast spit out whatever in his mouth as he shot up straight and opened his eyes.
A poor human boy stared wide eyed at him, looking half-offended and half-scared. "Do I taste bad?"
Onew's mind cleared. Had he passed out? Had he been hungry? ... He'd remembered. "Don't think about it." he told himself out loud.
The boy blinked, "Well, I.. try not to think about how my blood tastes anyway, I guess."
Onew glared at him.
The boy, who had a cut in his forearm, just looked confused.
So Onew grabbed his wrist and pulled it over, lying back down so he could easily hold the arm over his mouth. He realized then that he was on the floor, but he didn't much care.
"Dara asked me to come make sure you were okay." the human said as he drank, "I thought since you were on the floor you weren't just sleeping, so I figured, blood.. Didn't mean to be gross."
Onew was barely listening. He drank the blood, trying to keep his mind focused. The blood tasted good, because he was a vampire, and blood is a vampire's favorite food. He wasn't ruined, he hadn't become a monster. He was a superior being now, far above this boy who needed to cut himself to help a stranger just because it's what he was told...
He was superior. And killing didn't make him a monster, it simply made him what he was. Powerful, and above humans.
He grabbed the boy around his torso, pulling him down on top of him suddenly. The human cried out, but Onew's fangs sunk into his neck in a second, and he was quickly too drained to do any more screaming. Onew flipped on top of him, tearing more and more into his neck, wanting the blood to come faster and heavier. It wasn't a life beneath him, only a container for his food.
Minho would be ashamed, he thought suddenly.
He sat up over the human, looking down at him. He was very much dead, his skin paled and the last of his blood dripping into a pool on the floor. Onew stared, wondering if he could feel bad.
.. Nope. Not really.
But that made him feel strangely empty. As if he wanted that annoying guilt that Minho forced into him. Well, not 'as if'... he really just, did.
He sighed and looked around the room. How long was he supposed to wait here for Dara? He narrowed his eyes and stood up, deciding he didn't want to.
He opened the door and leaned into the hall. Heechul was walking from the room he remembered Minho was in. He stepped backwards into the room, giving time for Heechul to get out of the hall. Then he walked, carefully, through the creaky small hall to Minho's door.
He leaned against it, hearing just.. a heartbeat. If Siwon was in there, he was being awfully quiet. That wasn't too unusual, but Onew suddenly decided he'd take his chances. He pushed the door open, stepping in.
Minho looked right up from the bed, eyes wide, "Onew."
"Minho." Onew said quickly, hurrying to the bed.
Minho stood up slowly, but stood up all the same. "You actually came.."
Onew put his hands on his shoulders and pushed him down on the bed "I'll bond with you, and we'll get out of here." he said.
Minho cringed when he hit the bed, and Onew blinked. "Did he hurt you?"
Tears rose in Minho's eyes, and he reluctantly admitted, "A little."
They both looked fast to the door when a creak made Siwon's presence known. Onew glared, and quickly turned back to Minho. He leaned towards Minho's mouth, and Minho expected a kiss, though Onew's only thoughts were to pierce his fangs into him so they could be bonded once again...
The tip of Onew's fangs met Minho's bottom lip just for a horrible, teasing moment. Siwon moved way too fast. He grabbed onto Onew's shoulder, just because it was the first thing he reached, and threw him off of Minho with all of his strength, straight into the corner of a dresser.
Onew didn't let the collision stop him for long. He lunged at Siwon, fangs bared, but Siwon was ready too, and the two just held each other off. Minho could even see Siwon's advantage though. So he stood up himself, and ran into the vampire in attempt to throw him away from Onew.
It worked, but only so that Siwon could wrap his arms around Minho and pull him tight against himself. Still, Minho held his hand out. "Onew. Bite me."
Onew moved forward to do so, but Siwon spun around, guarding Minho with his own body. Minho found himself in a corner, with Siwon all around him, keeping him from his last hope.
"You just blew your chance, Onew." Siwon said.
Onew looked over his shoulder as several other vampires, none of whom he particularly recognized, walked into the room. He snarled, "You tricked me?"
"I planned to." Siwon said, "You nearly caught me off guard, but this seems to have worked out fine."
Onew yelled in frustration, lunging himself at Siwon once again. If he could only get a fang through Minho, then..
Siwon turned, knocking Onew in the face with a powerful punch. Onew dropped against the floor and spit out blood. Minho started towards him, but Siwon simply held him back. "Take him." Siwon demanded the waiting vampires.
And they did.
