Chapter 4



Baekhyun feels like he is two timing. When the sky is bright, he is courted by Chan, spending time with him and his soft hugs and warm touches and gentle kisses. When the sky is dark, he sprints to the deep forest to meet Yeol, welcoming him to his arms with a round of kisses that make him weak on his knees and elicit soft moans.

He feels like two timing Chan. But it also feels like two timing Yeol.

He doesn’t know what he is doing anymore, but Baekhyun is just following what his deepest instinct tells him to do.

His instinct tells him to be with Chan since he is the omega bride for the alpha, yet his instinct also tells him to get close to Yeol and explore the forbidden feeling. Baekhyun is torn in between. He is not sure what he should do next. Should he tell Chan about Yeol? Should he tell the alpha that he has a vampire twin?

No, he can’t do that. Yeol said that it’s not the time yet for the truth to be revealed. Actually, what kind of trust that is hidden from all of them? What’s his role in this secret?

“Baekhyun?”

He flinches in surprise at the call of his name, finding a worried Chan staring at him. The alpha touches the side of his face, his fingers smoothening down the frown on Baekhyun’s face.

“Are you okay? What are you thinking about?” Chan asks. Baekhyun shakes his head, mustering a smile to assure the alpha that there is nothing to worry about.

“I’m okay. Were you saying something?”

Chan doesn’t look like he is convinced but he lets the topic go and nods. “Yeah. I was talking about our courting session. It’s going to end soon and before we know it, we will mate soon.” The alpha says, lifting his hand up to kiss his knuckles.

Baekhyun gapes. Really? Has time pass so quickly that their courting period is going to be over soon? Then it means he is going to be mated to Chan almost immediately?

If it’s his old self, he will be jumping in happiness at the thought of being mated to his alpha. But now, he thinks about how Yeol will feel. Don’t get his wrong, he still loves Chan very much and he is happy that they are going to mate soon, but he remembers about Yeol and how they whisper lovingly during the nights. He can’t think of breaking Yeol’s heart like that.

“Love?” Chan calls, thumbing his cheeks. Baekhyun jolts back up to reality and he finds that Chan is frowning.

“Are you sure you are okay? You lost focus so often today.”

Baekhyun bites down on his lip. “I… I think I’m tired and sleepy.”

Chan thumbs onto his eye bags. “Were you unable to sleep at night? Do you want me to tell your mother to let me stay with you until you fall asleep?”

The mention of night makes Baekhyun stiffens. “No, I… I was just awoken a few times and it was hard for me to go back to sleep. Can we… get back home?”

Chan nods, “Of course. I would love to see you rest than to see you losing your focus all the time.”

Baekhyun tiptoes up and presses his mouth on the alpha’s. “Thank you, Chan.” He whispers softly. Chan grips onto his hips, tilting his head aside to claim his lips for a proper kiss. Baekhyun breathes softly while Chan nips along his bottom lip, pecking his mouth softly and he finds himself wanting for more.

He presses deeper, parting his mouth open as an invitation for Chan, who seems surprised at his movement but then regains his control back. Baekhyun whimpers when Chan backs him up against the tree, pushing his tongue into his mouth to explore the warmth and the slickness. Baekhyun whimpers loudly, his fingers twisting Chan’s shirt while he tilts his head to another angel. Chan breathes heavily into his mouth, tangling their tongues together and sucking on it.

“Haa,” Baekhyun whimpers when Chan pulls away, staring at him with his blue eyes clouded with the grey of want and need. The alpha noses along his jaw, reaching to peck his ear and nuzzling into the base of his neck.

“I can’t wait until our mating night. I want to do so many things to you, love.” Chan’s voice is so low and heavy, as if he is holding himself back from attacking Baekhyun.

The omega shivers, scratching onto the alpha’s clothed shoulder while taking a mouthful of air into his lungs. Chan peppers kisses all over his neck, licking on his hairline and Baekhyun mewls softly from it.

Chan grounds his hips down, his ears on top of his head are tensed, showing how hard he is holding back. Baekhyun reaches up to caress the alpha’s ears, seeing them flick when his fingers come in contact with the furry texture.

“You should really go home,” Chan says lowly, taking a deep breath. “I’m afraid I can’t let you go after this.”

Baekhyun blushes, nodding his head and running away from the alpha. He hears Chan’s low chuckle before the alpha comes up to him, holding his tight by his waist.







When the night comes, Baekhyun once again climbs out through the balcony and sprints his way into the dark and deep forest.

As expected, Yeol is already waiting for him there, his red eyes showing how gentle that look is. Baekhyun runs straight away into his arms, nuzzling into his chest.

“I miss you.” He whispers softly. Yeol stiffens, taking a step back and effectively releasing him from his embrace. Baekhyun looks up in surprise, as it’s the first time that Yeol refuses his hug.

“What’s wrong, Yeol?”

The vampire looks like he is holding back, his fists tight on each side of his leg.

“I… I have been warned.” Yeol says softly. Baekhyun tilts his head. “What do you mean?”

“The smell all over you,” the vampire says lowly, the tone sad, “I can smell Chan all over you. He puts his scent all over you, Baekhyun. You should… you should go from here.” Yeol whispers, taking another step back.

Baekhyun whimpers sadly. “Why?”

“I don’t know but… but I think Chan notices my scent and he is an alpha, Baekhyun. An alpha is territorial over his mate and it’s not my place to interfere.”

The omega steps towards him. “Yeol,”

The vampire glances away. “Go back to him, Baekhyun. I… I don’t want you to come back here anymore.”

Baekhyun can feel his heart breaking. “You don’t w-want me?” He whispers weakly. Yeol glances back to him, hearing his sad voice. The vampire makes a move to reach for him but he can’t even move.

“I’m sorry, Baekhyun. For showing up in front of you. It was… reckless of me.” Yeol whispers sadly, retreating his hand. Baekhyun sobs, running into his arms back.

“B-But you said you love me the other day.” The omega cries by now, gripping onto his black coat. Yeol gulps, “I do but… but you are going to be mated to… Chan, right?”

Baekhyun looks up with teary eyes, surprised. “What?”

Yeol gives him a sad smile. “I know, Baekhyun. You are going to mate with him and then you will live your life with him. It’s not a place for me to take. We… we might be destined in another way but I can’t betray my own sibling.”

Baekhyun yanks his coat. “W-What are you talking about?”

“It’s not my story to tell, Baekhyun. I love you, I really do, but it will be better if you don’t come here anymore. I don’t want to cause a war between us—”

The omega sobs, feeling his heart is beating out of control, feeling it wrenching painfully. Yeol talks as if they are not going to meet again, as if he is sacrificing himself for Baekhyun. Why would Yeol talk that way?

Baekhyun gasps, clutching his chest as he doubles over in pain. Yeol panics at his sudden painful whimpers, holding him up from hitting the ground.

“Baekhyun?” The vampire calls, tenderly holding onto his scrunching face. Baekhyun whimpers in pain, feeling as if his heart is stabbed with a knife so many times. He doesn’t expect Yeol sacrificing himself to let Chan have him, letting his sibling to have Baekhyun while he himself stepping back from this.

“Ah!” He cries out, feeling his eyes throbbing so painfully as if he has been staring at the sun for so long. His eyes feel like they are burning in fire, his whole body spasms.

“Baekhyun—” Yeol’s word is cut off when the vampire feels a very strong impact hitting him from the other side. He slams into the rock cave, coughing in pain.

Baekhyun can hear Yeol’s pained grunt and he forces himself to open his heavy eyes, surprisingly finding someone pinning Yeol against the rock, a hand enclosing over the vampire’s neck.

“What kind of creature are you?!” The person shouts in front of Yeol’s face and Baekhyun recognizes it.

It’s Chan.

“C-Chan!” He gasps, trying to tell the alpha to let Yeol go. Chan doesn’t seem to hear him as he tightens his grip around the vampire’s neck. Yeol doesn’t even try to attack back, he simply hangs limply in Chan’s clutch as if he accepts his destiny.

Baekhyun stands up in difficulty, running to grab onto Chan’s arm.

“Stop! Stop that!!” He cries. Chan gives him a sharp glare. “Is this creature a witch? He pretends to be me to kidnap you? I’m going to kill him!”

“No!!” Baekhyun screams, yanking Chan’s arm away. Yeol gives the omega a sad look, eyes closing in defeat. Baekhyun cries, “No, Chan. Let go, please! Please don’t kill Yeol—”

“You are defending this creature?” Chan asks in disbelief, his ears on top of his head tick in annoyance and his lips twitch in anger. The look in his eyes is so dangerous; he looks like he is ready to kill anytime.

“…i-it’s okay, Bae—argh!” Yeol groans when he tries to talk but instead, he gets a powerful jab into his stomach from Chan’s sharp claws.

Baekhyun drops onto his knees, crying and feeling his whole body trembling in pain. He looks up at the sight of Chan choking Yeol, his eyes blur and his sight keeps changing weirdly. His stomach feels like he is in fire, he can’t breathe as if his chest is pressed down by something.

He drops down to the ground, panting heavily. Both Chan and Yeol glance to him, a pair of blue eyes and a pair of red eyes stare at him in shock.

As Baekhyun whimpers on the ground, clutching onto his stomach, he sees Chan releasing Yeol down to the ground to take care of him.

“Baekhyun! Baekhyun, can you hear me?!” Chan screams in panic, touching his sweaty face. He sees Yeol staring at him from where he drops on the ground, his red eyes dull and his pale lips give Baekhyun a sad smile.

Baekhyun cries, gazing back up to the alpha who then freezes in shock.

“B-Baekhyun,” Chan calls in disbelief, “your e-eyes.”

Right before Baekhyun loses his consciousness, he glances to Yeol’s red eyes and Chan’s blue eyes, until his own eyelids drop down, covering his now purple colored eyes. He can taste blood in his mouth; do his newly grown fangs pierce his own lip?
