Dongwook was waiting at his penthouse, although it was already past 1am. He was told by his men that someone had entered through the gates of this elite region. That must be Taehyung. Dongwook told me to leave it alone. After all, if you fight, maybe the lives that even floated were chopped up by mutant vampires.

Dongwook took a slow sip of his scotch. He sat on the sofa relaxed not afraid at all of the arrival of vampires into his penthouse. Dongwook is very optimistic that Taehyung will return to be his. In this penthouse was already present a dozen mafia that he brought, just in case it is necessary to subdue Kim Taehyung by force.

Dongwook's penthouse door opened automatically when Taehyung was already at the door. Surveillance cameras have seen Taehyung's arrival so Dongwook tells him to keep the door unlocked for the vampire. Dongwook was very satisfied with the arrival of the vampire was only alone.

Taehyung went inside the penthouse, his expression cold, his hands clenched due to how he had withstood patience and anger since then. His white eyes surprised Dongwook and the mobsters there. Vampires are really scary.

“Welcome, Taehyung..” muttered Dongwook smirked, impressed by the appearance of the white-eyed mutant vampire. Well, Dongwook certainly knows that the mutant vampire at ‘factory syndicate’ will leave some marks. For Taehyung's case, one of his eyes turned white.

Taehyung looked at the syndicate's big boss with hate, how the man could still sit back and relax as if he was having fun on top of the suffering of others. Taehyung clenched his hands tightly, wanting to strangle the big boss's neck no matter which dozen mobsters in the room would shoot him. But given the uncertainty of Soojung's safety, Jimin and his mother, Taehyung must hold back.

“What do you want exactly?” Taehyung. The purpose of his arrival, however, was to free the hostages at all costs.

Dongwook snorted, sipping back his scotch. “What I want? Just like before, Taehyung. You're in a syndicate. I haven't even tasted the quality of your blood since you became a vampire.”

Dongwook believes that with the track record he has regarding Taehyung in the vampire trials, Taehyung has good blood quality, let alone a lot of drugs and potions that have entered the vampire's body. Dongwook wants to tuck it.

Taehyung wanted to get all the swear words out on the man. He was a victim, tricked and became a test man in the syndicate. He even lost his existence as a human, having to experience painful times during various experiments that were tested into his body. And Dongwook still dared to say that Taehyung should return as if Taehyung was in debt. Has the moral been lost to this man?

“We can make a deal,” said Taehyung trying to withstand a wave of emotions in the chest, how he wants to immediately end all this and live a quiet life, “Let go the hostages.”

“Deal?” Dongwook raised his eyebrows. He leaned forward and looked at Taehyung sharply. “The deal with me is that you go back to the syndicate, where you belong. And the hostages I'll take off.”

Damn, the blood is so boiling inside Taehyung. He should have known that Dongwook would suck like this.

Taehyung quickly grabbed one of the mobsters not far from him, tackled the gun from his hand until it fell to the floor, then twisted the mafia's arm, preparing to break his arm.

The other mafias in the penthouse room were on standby, pointing guns at Taehyung, ready to kill him on the spot. Dongwook raised a hand, holding Taehyung back from being shot.

Taehyung was unimpressed, although now the guns were not aimed at him, he still twisted the arms of the mafia. The man screamed in pain as his painful bones almost broke the vampire. Taehyung's power is no joke.

“You threatened me?” said Dongwook, “You think I'm gonna be moved just because you're holding one of the hundreds of mobsters I have? Didn't you forget that I held your friend? Ah.. and elder sister Jungkook..”.

Taehyung's teeth were clattering. He couldn't save those people. He doesn't even know where the hostages are being held. The main thing for Taehyung is to release the hostages.

Dongwook gives smirk. “If you still have doubts, Kim Taehyung, tomorrow morning I can get the hunters to attack your residence.”

Taehyung's eyes grew bigger. What does that human bluff mean?

“You think I don't know your clan's residence?” Dongwook's triumphant grin grew longer and longer looking at Taehyung's face. He picked up the phone on the table and called someone. He called the chief hunter aka Jungkook's own uncle.

“Halo.. Sorry to interrupt the nights... I'll give you the location of the vampire lair, tomorrow you and your team can attack and capture the big game. No, no, the location I'm not giving you right now. Hopefully it will be morning.. because I have to make sure first..”.

Taehyung's eyes turned pushy. Dongwook will give his clan address to the hunter's headquarters? He did not want to send disaster to the clan members who had been guarding and loving him.

Slowly Taehyung's grip on the mafia loosened.

Dongwook parsed as he ended the call, seeing how Taehyung had taken off his mafia. The mafia went straight to the side and grimaced as her aching arm was almost broken.

“What is hard?” asked Dongwook scornfully. “You just obey me and I'll release the hostages. Do I need to finish off your clan too?”

Taehyung's heart was deeply broken. Dongwook is so ruthless as to achieve his goal. His legs trembled because he did not know any other way to stop the big boss' crazy action.

Dongwook grunting. “You think I don't know who destroyed my Black Dragon?” Dongwook's ugly grin was plastered horribly. “You have to pay it many times over, Taehyung, the loss I obtained..”.

Taehyung's knees wobbled and he fell to his knees on the floor. She had given up, desperate.The great fear was running her way, how horrible Dongwook could do to her clan, to Jungkook, to the innocent people around her. However Dongwook only deals with Taehyung.

His eyes were pushy, like someone was tearing his heart apart. Hope has vanished.

“Jebal..”.

Dongwook laughed with satisfaction at how the vampire had already been checkmated. This was the scene he was waiting for, as Taehyung returned to his side based on his own wishes.

“So, what's your decision?”

The vampire's eyes are glazed. His chest was so claustrophobic that he had to drag himself back to the syndicate, to a place that left his life shattered and inflicted deep trauma.

“I'll do your wish.”

“Bravo!!” Dongwook stood up and clapped his hands in satisfaction. His smile was wide. He approached Taehyung who was still kneeling on the floor. This is in accordance with his expectations.

“You are my ziti, Taehyung.

Taehyung's tears flowed upon hearing that remark. Ziti is a VVIP menu on the Delicious Pasta website. What does this mean is that the menu….

“Welcome home.” mumbled Dongwook with a grin while holding Taehyung's chin.

Tears are full in the eye until the vampire's vision blur. His heart was deeply wounded, he felt that all his struggles during this time were in vain if he only hurt the people he cared about.

Taehyung slumped to the floor because one of the mobsters who threw a drug injection into his neck made his whole body stiff instantly unable to move. Taehyung was still crying, looking ahead until everything was getting blurred and as if the world was spinning.

Dongwook's laughter was the last he heard until Taehyung's eyes finally closed, losing consciousness altogether.

***

Jungkook walks in a dark room. He was confused as to why he could be in a place like this. He looked around, just a windowless dark wall.

The man walked until he saw at the end of the bed. Taehyung was lying there. Jungkook grew more astonished and approached the vampire.

“Tae?” tanyakanya. He was more astonished because Taehyung was lying down and crying, his tears were so rushing.

“Tae, why?” ask Jungkook again anxiously while holding the vampire's arm. What he only realized was that Taehyung's wrist was tied to the bed. What the hell is this really??

“Taehyung...please..” said Jungkook was devastated to see the vampire, frustrated that he could not be heard Taehyung. Jungkook tries to release Taehyung's hand from the rope but can't seem like Jungkook's hand is translucent and can't touch anything.

“Taehyung...!” the stuffing, trying to summon that vampire. Hearts like pricked nails saw Taehyung who was crying pitifully.

Until finally the vampire said, “Jungkook..…”

.

.

Jungkook immediately jerked awake. He sat with his eyes bulging, breathing hard as if he had just run a marathon. What kind of dream had he just had?

Jungkook looked to the side, seeing Taehyung's absence next to him. Suddenly anxiety begins to fill Jungkook. He pulled out the blanket and got out of bed.

“Taehyung?” call him and check out the empty bathroom. He looked towards the empty balcony even though the door was slightly open. Jungkook immediately exits the room and goes down to find where the vampire is, hoping his anxiety does not occur.

“Tae?” call Jungkook in the dining room and get no one. He rushed to the front door which was still locked from overnight, indicating that no one had left the house since yesterday.

“What's up?” namjoon asked out of the room because he heard Jungkook's voice.

“Taehyung no.” said Jungkook panic.

Yoon-gi came out of the room and frowned in surprise at Jungkook's words. Last night he had locked the door with a padlock indicating that no clan members should leave the house.

“Hah?” Hoseok also appeared and was very surprised to hear Jungkook's words. Soon he, Yoongi and Namjoon go upstairs to check. And it turns out that there are no signs of Taehyung's presence, even the smell of his presence in this house has disappeared.

Jungkook was so panicked that his nightmares scared him enough. He tried to contact Taehyung's phone was not active. This is like a dejavu just like his brother's cell phone that was also inactive when kidnapped by the syndicate.

Seokjin came out of her room when she heard the noise. He realized what was going on. Taehyung disappeared from this house.

Jungkook's hand trembled and kept trying to call when he knew it was all a waste. This can't happen, right? Now Taehyung's been kidnapped by the syndicate? But how can the syndicate kidnap Taehyung because Jungkook remembers the vampire sleeping next to him last night.

“She ran away from this house last night,” muttered Yoongi worried, “I think she came out through the balcony.”

Jungkook's eyes are growing. “Ka-kabur?”

“What does he do?” tanya Hoseok anxiously bites her nails, “Did she go to the syndicate?”

“Sial, it's getting complicated.” Namjoon. He did not expect Taehyung to be reckless and go face the syndicate alone.

Seokjin was very angry because he was worried about his clan members. He had reminded each member not to be rash and not fooled into Dongwook's trap.he did not think that Taehyung even acted alone without telling anyone.

“Jungkook, he didn't tell you?” ask Namjoon.

Jungkook shook his head fretfully. His face was still pale after the shock he experienced. He feels himself to be very stupid for not even realizing Taehyung left him. It's really bad.

Jungkook was shocked when he realized that something was hanging on his wrist. His eyes were patterned when he saw the blue beaded bracelet that he had once thrown away. The bracelet Taehyung made for him. He blinked, not understanding. Did Taehyung put this bracelet in his hand last night??

Jungkook's heart was pounding, negative thoughts began to mill about Taehyung's plan. Did the vampire turn himself in to the syndicate to free the hostages?

Not all the puzzles have been solved yet, Yoongi's phone rings. The dhampir immediately reached into his phone hoping that the one who called it Taehyung. But he was very shocked when he saw Jimin's name on the phone screen.

“Jimin called.” said Yoongi in a choked voice.

“Mwo?” Namjoon glared in disbelief and immediately approached the dhampir, even though some days Jimin number tried to be contacted but never lifted.

Everything was so tense as Yoongi picked it up. “Halo?”

“Hyung..!” There was Jimin's voice across. His voice was as hoarse as not drinking for days. “I tried to call Taehyung but the number is off.”

“Ji-Jimin..” said Yoongi was shocked, still not expecting Jimin to call him. “Where are you? What happened?”

Jimin grimaced across. “I was drugged last night and when I realized I was under Han Bridge with Soojung Noona and my mother. They're still unconscious.”

“Gosh!” said Hoseok who heard Jimin's words. It was like good news that finally came. Seokjin was very surprised to hear that the hostages survived not being held captive.

“We will pick you up.” said Yoongi hurriedly as he felt the need to rescue them immediately before the syndicate's men again kidnapped. “Give me your location, Jimin.”

“OK, Hyung.” Jimin said across.

Finally they rushed to the place Jimin had told them about. They used two cars to get to the location. Jungkook was very worried and still not calm. Did Taehyung release the hostages? Then where's Taehyung now if he's not with the hostages?

Half an hour later they reached Han Bridge. Seokjin who first ran out of the car, was so emotional when she saw her lover there, standing next to Jimin, already aware of the influence of drugs.

Soojung who had seen her running lover then came running while crying. So stifling that Soojung is almost desperate that she will not survive and can not meet the people she loves again. Seokjin immediately grabbed him, hugging him tightly as if he did not want Soojung taken away again from the grasp of his hand.

“Oppa..” whispered Soojung crying.

Seokjin started crying, drowning her head in the neck of the woman she loved so much. “I miss you's.. I miss you so much.”

Others rushed over. Fortunately there were no significant injuries although Jimin was seen to need to be treated because there were some bruises on his face. Jimin's mother looked fine even though her face still showed trauma.

“Noona!” jungkook said as Soojung and Seokjin took off their hugs.

“Jungkook-ah..” said Soojung moved and hugged her only puppet sister. Jungkook cried slowly but was relieved that his brother was safe and in good condition.

“What really happened?” ask Hoseok after hugging Jimin.

Jimin nodded confusedly. “It looks like we were released by the syndicate and taken to this place.”

Namjoon. “Kukira Taehyung saved you. You didn't see Taehyung?”

“I don't see it.” said Jimin astonished, not yet understood what was going on.

“Because she has not been home since last night.” says Yoongi gettin.

Namjoon and Hoseok felt very frustrated. When the other hostages are free, is Taehyung missing?

Jungkook's heart was very upset. He sees how Seokjin and Soojung embrace again, relieved to be back together. Jimin is embracing his mother and is saying everything will be fine.

Jungkook's eyes were glazed over, his heart was deeply hurt, was all this the sacrifice Taehyung gave?

And now his soulmate is gone…
