It was dark out and you had just made it into the castle, the guards hadn’t spotted you, thankfully, but this was slowly starting to become a routine for you. You hid behind a pillar and waited for the next guard to make his first round. 

You could sense him, which meant he could sense you, but thankfully he ignored it and kept walking. You made a run for it, up the stairs, down the hall, knocking once on the third door from the left. The door was open and you slid inside before anyone could see you.

He smiled at you as you walked inside to catch your breath, “Baby.” He said, holding his arms out to you. You went to him easily and he squeezed you tight.

“Changkyun, we gotta stop doing this.” You said sadly, this was so much work for you to keep sneaking around like this.

“Hey, stop that.” He chided you, “This is us, we are together. You know that.” He said softly. “I’m sorry if you have to keep sneaking in like this though.”  He said sadly.

You looked up at him with a pout but shook your head, "It's not your fault, your parents don't want you to be with a commoner." You said to him. You your lips as a distraction but it made your blood boil that they refused to let him decide who he wanted. 

He sighed, "I know. But I also know they're trying to look out for the bloodline, there aren't many of us left." He said, and you knew he was right. Vampires were fading fast, the purebloods were dying out and soon only those who were formerly human would be left.
