"I'm sorry...  It's just...nothing."  You said and he took account for the way you acted.  He studied you a bit, but stayed silent shrugging his shoulders.

Yoongi rolled his eyes, "Anyways...we have a problem on our hands.  I need you Y/n."  He gave you a sincere look.  You knew it was about Dae. Your heart slightly jumped just thinking about how bad you were hallucinating a few hours ago.  He really was trying to get you.

So much things have happened in such a short amount of time.

You sighed accepting his words, "O-Of course."  Upon stutter, you covered your mouth.  It was clear you feared him, although you didn't want to.

"Fearing gives you something to do with your life. How can you fix it?" Jin's words echoed in your head. The way you've always dealt with fear was by running. Running from your problems.

But this time, it was different.

You were going to trust Jin.

Am I really?  Dae said to bring him Jungkook or Taehyung dies.  How do I even tell them that?  They've already tried going for Taehyung.  I don't think there's any good ending to this.

You started to follow Yoongi through the halls of the mansion. You looked back at the spot you sat. You were confused. What was happening to you?  You didn't want to deal with this more.  A part of you felt like for the night, you've reached your boiling point.  Anymore outbursts of emotion, you were going to snap.

You took a deep breath and continued to follow Yoongi into the depths of the mansion. You followed him through a dark hall and down a descending staircase.

He stopped at the door at the bottom.  You stopped on his heels and he turned to look at you. Yoongi nodded at you almost expecting you to understand where this was going.

He turned back around and opened the door revealing a dark cool room full of cells. Yoongi started to pace himself as you both walked across the numerous empty cells. The environment had completely changed. You were positive Yoongi brought you to their old dungeon.

If Yoongi brought me here, someone had to be here right? A part of shivered remembering that you had run away.

Especially since Yoongi was the one who said you had to stay with them. Maybe...He was bringing me down here to lock me up! Chain me to a wall and everything!

You slowed down, "W-Wait, why did you bring me here?" You questioned nervously and he turned to look at you once again.

He shifted his eyes a bit, "Y/n, I need you to help me with something. Just follow me and stop being stubborn. I won't kill you." He continued walking, "No promises..."

You ignored his comment and continued to follow him until you both reached the end of the hall. Yoongi turned left facing a cell. He shook his head and smirked, "You look like shit." You brought yourself to Yoongi's side and your eyes met the man's in the cell. It was the guy you had beat up in the staircase of the mall.

He looked worse than how you left him. He was strapped in a chair. He had stakes in the palms of his hands and his shoulders. Black blood was leaving his eyes, ears, and his nails. He was extremely pale currently passed out. You covered your mouth in disgust.

Yoongi placed his hand on the small your back urging you to step closer towards the cell. "Don't sympathize for him. He's up." The guy's eyes flickered open. He started to cough more black blood hitting the floor before him.

You tried to step back nervously and Yoongi wouldn't let you. You turned to him and he looked at you full of seriousness. "Look at him. Y/n...Look at him!"  His hands held the sides of your face forcing you to look at the cell. The guy smirked at you slyly licking his lips.

You couldn't understand why Yoongi was frustrated.  He was forcing you to see.  "Why did you bring me here?" Shifting your eyes you slowly grew emotional watching the guy slowly die before you. Could this...No...This could have been me...If it wasn't for Jungkook..?

You gripped Yoongi's hands removing them from your face, pushing him back. You looked at him waiting for his response, "Are you setting an example for me?  Any choices I make—"

His eyes darted into you, burning into you as if he was trying to puzzle his words. "I told you not to leave. This...THIS is what would have happened to you if Jungkook didn't get to you first. This or worse will happen to you if you continue to disobey our rules, Jin hyung's kindness. Maybe he gives chances, maybe he doesn't show the raw stuff, but I do. This," He pointed at the dying wolf, "This is reality. Your brother is sending literally human viruses to kill you. He's sacrificing them to get you. Do you understand how much more of a threat he's become?" He crossed his arms, "Our intentions are to help you in aiding us end this guy. We know him killing you, will make him stronger. Don't take our kindness for granted. You don't have anyone but yourself."

You stood there staring at Yoongi, "Are you done?"

He started to smirk with anger.  He moved towards the cell and slid the door open.  He went stepped towards the guy in the cell.  He pulled the stake out of one of his hands forcing the guy to growl in pain.  Yoongi then held his hand up for you to see.  His claws contained dry blood.

"What?  What are you trying to get at?"

"Your brother made sure his claws had enough wolfsbane, to get to you.  Him cutting into you, sent it into your system."  Yoongi walked out the cell and closed it.  "You won't even know who to trust anymore.  I could be connected to Dae, and have wolfsbane in my claws."  Yoongi walked you up into a wall between the cells.  He placed his hand by your head, "Do you get what I'm saying now?" 

You nervously nodded and Yoongi stepped back.  "Is that they only reason you brought me down here, or is there something else?"

"He specifically asked me to have you here to talk to him.  He won't talk to no one else."  Yoongi shrugged his shoulders, "Can I say I trust you?  No, but do I have a choice?"

You looked at him with sincere eyes, "We are on the same side."

"Then make us feel that way.  I'm giving you 5 minutes."  Yoongi walked back away into the darkness down the hall.  You listened to the door creek and close.

You stood in front of the cell watching the guy.  He looked up at you and smiled with black blood oozing through his teeth.  "Dae should've told me his sister was a babe—"

You scoffed rolling your eyes.  "You're disgusting you know that.  Who are you even?  His beta?  What type of sickening alpha does that to their right-hand man?"

He started to laugh while shaking his head, "My name is Chris and I'm an omega.  Your brother promised me a part of his pack if I did something for him.  Now look at where we are.  I mean, maybe I was tricked but I guess I'm not alone in this hell."

You raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

"You're an omega too."

"I'm not an omega."  You shook your head in annoyance.

"Then you're somehow some way a part of his pack?"

"I don't associate with Dae.  That bastard is my twin brother.  Nothing more or nothing less.  Not my alpha."  You confirmed and he gave a questioning look.  "Look, I'm not a part of a pack, but I'm not an omega.  I have people that take care of me.  Unlike you, I wasn't desperate to earn my spot in such a pack.  He killed our father when he was in a weakened state to earn his power.  No matter where I am, I am Dae's pawn.  He needs me for his full power.  You don't need to help him.  You are better than that."

His face softened, "You say you aren't in a pack but people love you, that sounds like your own unofficial pack to me.  You don't understand how hard it is to find acceptance when you've fell into loneliness."  You could see the pain in his eyes and you couldn't understand why he was so desperate.  You were surviving on your own for so long.

"I never asked for this.  I was doing just fine alone, and if I do still end up alone, I will be okay.  I literally have another half and he's trying to kill me.  You think I'm not okay, I'm still fine!"  I huffed and he started to chuckle.

He stared into my eyes, "For someone who says they'd be fine alone, you seem like you aren't even fine with people.  Who's bothering you?  One of those blood suckers?  I can tell your emotions have been shaken, disturbed."  He read you like a book. 

It was clear that you were bothered as much as you tried to hide it.  Jungkook really leaving with Nia rustled your feelings and you didn't want to accept how he made you feel.  "I am completely fine.  You are dying, you can't even control your power."

He bit his lip and gave you a small smirk.  "Y/n, we relate more than you think.  It's clear you will never be fine if you stay with them.  And even if you are fine, Dae will make sure to kill everyone around you slowly to make your life a living hell.  You won't find happiness here."

"And it's better that I give myself to him and die?  What do you think happens to everyone around him when he reaches his full power?"

He shook his head slowly, "No, Y/n.  You have three options.  You can stay here, you can turn yourself into Dae, or..."

"What could my third option be?  I have the choice of life and death.  There's none in between."

His voice grown softer, "You can let me out of here and we can run away together."  He smiled and you eyed him in confusion.

"I don't even know you.  I only know you tried to kill me."  He crossed your arms in frustration confused to his offer.

"I didn't and you whooped my ass.  We should be even."  He gave out a little laugh, you slightly raised your eyebrows in amusement.

"Are you psychotic?  Even?!  You are siding with my brother because you are tired of being alone.  You being desperate will get you killed.  Like right now!"

"You don't think that you getting attached to these people will get you killed?"  He slowly started to get frustrated, "You think me dying is messing up my senses?  You look like you are about to break down any second and you just came back.  Who was it, huh?  That freak who we took in the mall?  No... it couldn't be."  Your heart started to pound loudly.  Even without super hearing, your heart beat was loud and clear.  "You like one of these freaks?"

"W-What makes you say that?"

"You aren't good at hiding your feelings.  How do you think it's going to end with him, considering it's a guy?  This house if full of testosterone.  Who ever they are, they only want you to suck you dry.  Whatever side we are on, you need to understand, I wouldn't let you fall into the hands of bloodsuckers."

"What makes you think you have a say in my life?"

"It can be wolf against wolf, but when a vampire comes into the picture, everything changes."

You did understand where he was coming from, but after running from your brother for so long, you didn't feel like you were a part of them.   You could never be the same. This guy before you was getting you all riled up. I need to calm down before I do something irrational.

"Look...Ever since my brother and I became Orphans and he became an Alpha, I didn't want anything to do with werewolves. The whole fact I am one has ruined my life. I had it all and lost it all because of what I am." You clenched your fist giving him your most sincere eyes. You werewolf, and one who was never good enough. You being one was a nuisance to everything. You couldn't believe how being considered the weak twin by your parents, took a toll on your mentality and how you seen yourself. "I...I want a normal life. I don't want this."

He stared in your eyes. You could see a hint of sympathy from him. He didn't need to try to understand, because he did understand the pain of being unwanted. "Look, Y/n. I don't think you are a bad person and maybe if you weren't a wolf, your life would be different, but you are. You can't run away from what you are as much as you hate it. I hated the label of Omega. I tried to act like everything was fine, but it never worked out for me. I always fell back to my roots. You can never live a normal life, and being in this house will forbid you from it. At least as a werewolf, we do have our humane sides, but there is nothing humane about feeding off the living and living forever." He was very observant and smart with his words. He knew what he was getting at.

"W-Why...Why do you all of a sudden care?" You questioned him. He was dying before you because of his own desires to heal his pain. Only to leave him broken and injured beyond repair.

He started to cough out blood and then he slightly tilted his head, "Seeing you...Understanding you...I guess I have been fighting for the wrong cause all along." He started to smirk and laugh a bit, "I guess we are one in the same..."

Your lips twitched unsure of how to react, "Maybe..."

"Y/n...Now that you know my intentions were always pure, please just let me out. I have no business here. I rather die away from this place." He had pleading eyes. It was if the damage had take its toll. He just, he didn't want this no more.

Your eyes shifted and you looked down at your feet, "I'll ask Yoongi—"

"NO! I mean...no, you can't. You know he hates me. He'll say no and keep watch of me for even asking you. You are the only one who gets me. We get each other.  If you let me out, I'll run away and never come back again.  They won't see me ever!"

You furrowed your eyebrows frustrated on what to do next. You two did related and understood each other on a level no one else could. He was a wolf and you were a wolf. You were a wolf and everyone else here was a vampire.  Just like how Nia and Jungkook, could and would relate on a level you could never understand.  You and this guy before you, your sufferings birthed from the same reasons.

Shaking, you stepped forward towards the bars, grasping them.  You looked at him full of disappointment before making your choice.
