ᑭᗩᖇK

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... Taemin savored each bite of the meal before him, the flavors bursting with a richness that made it impossible not to appreciate the care and effort that had gone into its preparation. It was more than just delicious—it was an expression of love, and he felt deeply doted on by his beloved mate. Every bite carried a sense of connection, but something lingered in the back of his mind, a faint unease.

There was a subtle, familiar scent—one that shouldn’t have been there. At first, Taemin thought the rich, tangy aroma of blood in the margarita might have been enhanced by something extra, perhaps a touch of his mate’s own essence. But as he savored the drink, it became clear that the source of the scent wasn’t in the margarita. No, it was coming from you.

His brows furrowed as he pieced it together. The way you had disappeared momentarily, only to return with one hand subtly hidden behind a pillow—it all clicked. Taemin’s sharp senses weren’t fooled. His gaze locked onto you, concern etched into his features.

“Why are you bleeding?” he asked, his voice calm but firm, a thread of worry lacing his tone. “What happened to your hand? And why are you hiding it from me?” He leaned closer, his eyes narrowing slightly as he continued. “Let me heal it—with my tongue if I have to. I can close the wound. You shouldn’t be walking around with open wounds, not when they could lead to infection—or worse, harm you or the children inside of you.”

His hand reached out, his fingers gentle but insistent as he added, “Give me your hand. Give it to me now.” Though his words carried a commanding tone, it was clear that his concern stemmed from a deep love and protectiveness for you. Taemin’s worry was palpable, his every movement and word driven by the desire to keep you safe and well.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *with a small smile and then looking as you savored every bite and enjoyed every moment of this

the drink is a blood margarita with black lava salt. I thought it would be close to what you like. So, and since you haven't had a good proper drink I wanted to make you feel right at home. So, welcome home. *I speak and tilted my head from your words* No, You don't have to do that. Really. Let me do the cooking for you. I don't mind.

*smiles and looks at you eat the food and i put my hand behind my back and hum softly while you look at the food and wanted me to tell you what was put inside. I chuckled and looked at what you asked and then nodded while I put the cloth that covered my bloodied hand in my pocket. I spoke that i would go to the bathroom. I said and went into another room and closed the door. I looked at my hand and there was a slash in the middle. I looked at it and sighed* i think i over did it. *says and taking a gauze and wrap some tape around it and put my hands behind my back*

I'm glad you like it. I stepped in through the hall and gave a smile and i looked at you eat while making my way to sit on side you* hmmm~ *walks in and putting my hand that was badly cut under the pillow while i reach the good hand to your fork to get the silver from you to feed you. It didn't look out of place as you were sitting on the bed and the pillows were the closest thing to where i could blend my hand in with it's surroundings* I can make you more if you like.. I have extras. I gotten excited and carried away with cooking. I ended up making too many.

say ahhh. *holds the fork to your mouth for you to eat some pancakes*

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... My mouth practically watered as I stared at the delicious pancakes, deciding they deserved my immediate attention. Each fluffy layer seemed to beg to be tasted, and I didn’t hold back, diving in with pure delight. My eyes wandered to the blood martini, its crimson hue catching the light just enough to make it look almost too beautiful to drink.

“You made all of this from scratch?” I asked, my voice tinged with genuine surprise and admiration. “I can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am about your culinary endeavors. This all looks so incredible.”

Every bite was a new revelation, and the thought of you preparing all this for me filled me with gratitude—and inspiration. “You know, I think I need to get in there and cook something for you now,” I said, smirking between bites of pancake. “Something you would love—delicious meats, entrées, the works, all just for you.”

I leaned back for a moment, taking in the spread with a soft chuckle. “Don’t think you’re getting away with spoiling me like this. One of these days, I’ll have to repay you for this incredible, thoughtful meal. You’ve outdone yourself, and I plan to do the same for you.” I raised the martini in a mock toast, grinning. “Here’s to the most delicious breakfast—and the one who made it unforgettable.”

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... Taemin sat on the edge of the bed, his silken boxers clinging comfortably as he gazed around the bedroom he had meticulously prepared. The space was adorned with soft candlelight and scattered rose petals, the air tinged with the faint, sweet scent of flowers. Despite the tranquil setting, his mind buzzed with anticipation, a flurry of excitement he couldn’t quite calm. His thoughts raced as he imagined his beloved, Kai, waddling up the stairs, balancing their shared world between the promise of a delicious meal and the life they were building together.

Taemin’s ears perked up at the sound of hesitant steps on the staircase, a soft wobble in each footfall that made his heart clench with equal parts worry and affection. He debated rushing to help, but the faint sound of Kai’s voice, murmuring reassurances to himself, stopped him. Instead, he remained seated, his gaze fixed on the door, anticipation building with each passing second. His mind wandered, recalling the many meals they had shared, the love poured into each dish Kai had prepared. It had been far too long since he’d tasted that culinary magic, and the thought of it now sent his thoughts spiraling.

When the door finally opened, Taemin’s breath hitched. There stood his beloved, Kai, radiating a glow only they could carry, wobbling slightly under the weight of pregnancy and the trays of food in hand. Taemin was on his feet in an instant, moving to help, his hands brushing over Kai’s as he took the dishes from him.

“What is this?” Taemin asked, his voice tinged with awe as he set the plates down. His eyes widened at the sight of the meal—rich, savory dishes paired with a magnificent dessert that looked like a heavenly banana cake or pie. “You haven’t made something like this in years. I’ve missed this,” he admitted, his gaze flickering between the food and Kai’s glowing face.

He couldn’t help but smirk, his words dripping with playful affection. “Everything smells divine, but I need to know—what’s in all of this? Tell me about your culinary expertise, every layer of flavor you’ve conjured up.” He picked up a fork, savoring the first bite as his grin deepened. “I’m already salivating just from looking at it.”

Taemin leaned closer, his voice dropping to a teasing murmur. “And after I’m done indulging in this masterpiece… I think it’s time to savor you, too.” His smirk widened as he stole a kiss, the warmth in his gaze promising that this moment was just the beginning of a night filled with love and indulgence.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *a small hum hinted at my lips as i engaged into that of the kitchen. I held the cloth in my hand and took a deep smell with my nose* oh my this smell.. *i thought to myself and closed my eyes as they flickered. It's really been years and the smell was what i needed. I needed it so much the massive amounts of flippings came and from the smell. they instantly calmed. It's like they knew as well.

I looked at the shirt and watched it as if it's the last thing that was on earth. I frowned as it's been years. Your scent was gone out of most of what i had in the closet so i couldn't have this smell for years. The thing that kept me fueled. Still clenching the rose and now the locket, unbearable gifts i was receiving, I looked at the counter and placed them on side near each other and put the shirt over my shoulder*

I'm not done with you just yet. *i speak and rubbed my head on the fabric as if it was suppose to massage into my locks or hold my head i opened my eyes and saw the view of this kitchen. I rubbed my belly softly and then began preparing the food.

--------

Later the scent of food filled the area before it took out to travel. The smell of food I covered my mouth and rushed to the bathroom to relieve myself of the substance that came up. All these years, not smelling the scent of food and all of a sudden here, the smell.

The smell it was foreign to me. You were in the upper most part of the castle and I in the lower part. When done, i brushed my teeth and over brushed my tongue and around my mouth. I washed and continued* alright. it's alright little ones. *says to the belly and looked at the cooking food and did my best to tolerate that. I looked at the cloth and took in that scent* much better. *i cooked and finished plating the food and topping it with a lid to keep its freshness and the heat.

I looked at the way I made everything, and I moved to put the shirt on as i felt much better while I moved to cloth my hand and fill the glass with your drink. Making my way to you. I walked through the circle of life just to get to the room. Climbing steps. it took longer as I needed to stop a few times along the way. and the shaking of the tray* don't drop it. alright. lets go. I have this. I can do this. I stop to take a breath and then i shook off the feeling. I made my way to you and then looked back at the way i came and sighs softly.

I walk till i gotten to the room and then with a small smile i go in* food is here. I do hope you are hungry. I spent a lot of time preparing. *sets the tray down and looks at you* here y-... is this your idea of getting comfortable? *says and moves the tray to you* go on try it. it's... delicious

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... Taemin found himself utterly taken aback by his beloved’s actions, as if he’d stepped into an alternate reality where every gesture was a dazzling display of affection he could scarcely believe. The younger’s transformation felt as dramatic as flipping the entire world on its axis—a sudden, unexpected shift that left Taemin both speechless and grinning like a fool. The affectionate nuzzles, the lingering kisses, and the way the younger’s fingers traced over his skin—each touch was electric, as if his beloved was painting declarations of love with every motion.

He wrapped his arms around the younger, reluctant to let go, savoring the intimate warmth of their connection. But, much to Taemin’s disappointment, the younger slipped from his grasp like a mischievous breeze, taking his shirt along as if it were some sort of trophy. Heading toward the kitchen, his beloved left Taemin standing in their room, half-clothed, bewildered, and utterly enchanted.

Taemin chuckled under his breath, the absurdity of the situation only making him more intrigued. Left standing shirtless, he decided there was no point in being half-comfortable and rid himself of his slacks, slipping into a pair of night boxers that felt as close to perfect as the moment deserved. As he settled onto the bed, anticipation coiled in his chest like a tightly wound spring, his mind running wild with possibilities.

Would the younger return with a meal so indulgent it could rival the gods? Or perhaps, there was something more tantalizing on the menu—something hinted at in the glint of mischief in those eyes? The thought made Taemin glance toward the dresser, his smirk deepening as he ensured everything was exactly where it needed to be. Hypothetically speaking, of course, he couldn’t be blamed for hoping the night would take a particularly steamy turn. With each passing second, the anticipation grew thicker, the air charged with the promise of something unforgettable. Whatever awaited him, Taemin knew he was fully prepared to savor every bit of what was to come.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *As always, he never knew my seriousness from playfulness. I frowned eternally and then i looked at you. But then again you were always so serious with everything you spoke and looked at. This is why many things were torn and tortured in the past. I looked your face over and then looked down.

Taemin. Don't worry about the gifts. *looks at you and then look down at the locket and then watches as you open the locket up and then to see that you were hurt* taemin. Lets just get into bed. I've already eaten. So im not hungry. *i spoke and moved your hand around my waist and lean my head to your shoulder* just hold me. Making me anything won't make me happy. Then you will be away from me.

I just want to be held. *says and closes my eyes. *watches you and hisses* touch me taemin... Your suppose to be making me feel your love that i can't image. Have you forgotten? or have this look really truely disgusted you? *i looked down* how about I make you something to eat instead? I can drizzle something you may like on top of it. You should go and get out of them clothes. Get into something much more comfortable. *i speak and remove myself from your arms and help you remove your clothing. Well mainly your shirt. I trail my hands over your toned abed body and traced my finger alone the rim of their structures* even after so long. You still remained in shape. *i said and held at your waist* let me give you your strength back before we do anything further hmm? *i lean to place a kiss to your lips and hold your cheek* go wait for me. *i speak and grab your clothing that was off and bring them to the kitchen with me*

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... The elder’s voice trembled, his words heavy with the weight of years spent yearning. “After so many years… do you not miss my affection? Do you not miss my love?” His eyes searched yours, desperate for even a flicker of reciprocation. “I have missed you tremendously. The… physical gratification, as sweet as it is, is secondary to the love I have for you. It’s the mere presence of you that I miss most of all—the way it fills the empty spaces within me.”

He placed a hand over his heart, as if to still the ache that had taken root there. “But you punish me like this,” he said, his voice softening into a plea. “Why? Why would you punish me for loving you so much?”

He stepped closer, hesitating just shy of reaching for you. His expression wavered between sorrow and hope, his lips curving into a faint smile. “You give me such harsh looks, though I know… I hope… you’re only being playful. Please, tell me you’re being playful.”

With a dramatic gesture, he pressed his hand against his heart, as if he could keep it from breaking. “Without you, I will fall into an endless abyss of loneliness and despair. Is that truly what you want for me?”

The elder turned away, his movements restless as he shuffled through the items scattered around the room. His fingers closed around a small object—a locket, its delicate chain glinting softly in the light. Slowly, he opened it, revealing the tiny photograph inside: a stolen moment from your wedding, captured by the hands of a clever photographer. The two of you smiled within its frame, your eyes locked with a joy that seemed eternal.

“This…” he began, turning back to you and holding the locket out. “This was the gift I wanted to give you tonight. But since you’ve decided the night won’t happen as planned…” He hesitated, his voice cracking just slightly. “…I’ll make you dinner instead. And I’ll tuck you warm in bed, if that’s what you want.”

His eyes softened, the vulnerability of his confession lingering in the air between you. The weight of his love was as palpable as the warmth emanating from the hearth. Despite the turmoil in his words, his every action spoke of devotion and care./ no matter what you want from me let this be a reminder i always love you

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *when we made it to the castle. I blew out some silent air as I was more on the slight shivering side. Even though i still didn't show it. My hands were a purplish-blue color as I was out in the night air for some time. My lips were even the same frozen color.

I was in the process of shivering and it was that of an involuntary response as my body was trying to catch up with the warmer temperature. I looked at you and then watches as you seem to be enjoying yourself and I frowned just ever slightly. I watched you and then sat down on the couch that i was guided to.

Taemin.. *i spoke, though very low and i my lips that felt warm but it was just my tongue. *looking at my hands. I hold them together and i watched you speak about so much of what we were going to do. And I knew it was the first time you've been back in like a couple years, but things just wasn't the same. But I kept quiet about it and watched you since you were seemingly more excited.

I-... *i was caught off guard and i felt you lay a hint in with what you were trying to speak to me. My eyes squinted* you know what.. i change my mind. You can use your macho hands to pleasure yourself... I forgot how freaky you like to be. *hisses at you and gets up* we can play cat and mouse another time when your less playful.. better yet. when im done being a balloon. You have to remain abstinence for that many years. Or you can't get anything after. *i said and watched your reaction as I poked my tongue at you in defense*

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... The elder clutched his chest, overwhelmed by the sight of your acceptance. He quickly composed himself, ensuring the rose was safely in your hand before taking your own hand in his. His grip was warm, firm yet tender, as though he never wanted to let go. With a gentle tug, he pulled you closer, wrapping his arms around you and drawing you into his embrace. His smile was radiant, almost childlike in its joy, as he nestled you into his warmth.

“You’re coming home,” he murmured, his voice soft with relief and happiness.

The cold wind continued to bite at the edges of the park, but it no longer seemed to matter. Still holding your hand, he gestured to the far end of the park, where a shimmering portal began to form. “Let’s enjoy just a little more of this cold together,” he said, his tone light and teasing, “before we step into something warmer.”

The two of you walked the short distance hand in hand, the crunch of snow underfoot mingling with the quiet rustle of winter’s breeze. The portal’s shimmering surface reflected the vibrant glow of home—a castle surrounded by snow-dappled grounds, its air enchanted to remain crisp yet comfortably warm. It was a perfect balance: snowy, yet not cold; brisk, yet soothing. The charm of the magic lingered in the air, shielding the castle from winter’s harsher bite, making the scene feel dreamlike.

With a final squeeze of your hand, he led you through the portal, the world around you shifting instantly to the warmth of home. The castle loomed ahead, its hearthlight glowing through tall windows, promising comfort and safety.

“First,” he said, leading you toward the door, “we’re going to get you nice and warm. I’ll make you some hot chocolate—or anything else you want.” His tone was gentle, yet there was a glint of playful mischief in his eyes. “Maybe we should have dinner first… before moving on to other plans.”

He paused, turning to you with a smirk that hinted at both promise and restraint. “I need you nice and ready, after all. And I promise”—his voice dipped lower, his smirk growing into something more wicked—“I’ll be gentle.”

The warmth of his words matched the heat radiating from the castle as he guided you inside. The night may have begun in the cold, but it would end surrounded by warmth, comfort, and love.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *I would have crossed my legs in an attempt to be sassy and unbothered, but this damn stomach made that so much harder actually to do. Closing my eyes I only manage to cross my arms in my sassy attempt. When I heard ruffling off to the side, my eyes opened only to see you shrugging off the jacket and you put it where I sat. I blinked a bit confused at what you were doing.* What are you doing? *i asked, as if i wasn't the one to speak about you doing this. But on that note all jokes aside I moved to uncross my arms moving up to stop you when I saw you in such position.

I looked down at you when you spoke. I was still in such a shocking state that I furrowed my brows. But that didn't last long as I didn't know what to do in such a moment as I looked at you still on your knees with your head bowed in front of me. I was baffled to be honest.

When you raised your head you saw my reaction but i furrowed my brows again and leaned back crossing my arms yet again* I should have known you couldn't do it.. You are an even bigger fool.. Bowing to a human. That's insane. *i looked you over and rolled my eyes and moves to get up. When i gotten up there were pieces of broken glass. The same as what was at jimin's bed.

I walked onwards* come on you big idiot. Come walk me home. And I'll think about if im going to let you in or not. I heard your footsteps and then something stopping me in my tracks to see something red. I didn't quiet see it see it since I was moving. I stopped when i heard you speaking I turned around to see a red rose in front me.

It was gleaming... why was it gleaming?... I looked at the rose like if i saw nothing else. I couldn't look away. It attracted me towards the very essences you give. I looked at the rose as you asked for my forgiveness. I looked down a short moment while you continue with your words. .

...... *i fumbled with my lips and I gave out a exhausted sigh and i moved to take the rose. A small twirl and I looked at you* I don't have to put my feet to your head. Because then you would get my shoes dirty. Take me home. Lets just home.. I want to feel this love you so have for me. Make me feel your love in ways i can't imagine. *i leaned in pressing my lips to yours as my answer to your words and gesture of everything*

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... Taemin shrugged off his jacket, the soft fabric falling in a heap on the bench beside you. Without hesitation, he dropped to his knees, his head bowing low until his forehead touched the ground. His posture was one of absolute submission, a rare and striking image for one who carried himself with the authority of a king. Yet, in this moment, there was no pride, no ego—only love and desperation.

“You are the only person in this world,” he began, his voice steady but brimming with emotion, “who could ever make me do this. You are the only one who could ask it of me, and I would do it without question. I would do this in front of humans, demons, hunters… the entire world, if it meant proving what you mean to me.”

His words came with a weight that hung in the cold air around you. “I would do this on camera, let them see me—a demon king brought to his knees—not out of shame, but out of love. Because you, Kai, are my mate, my other half, my everything. If it takes begging to bring you back to me, then I’ll beg. If it takes submitting myself to your power, which is as great as mine, then I will submit. I will make a mockery of myself before all creation, because nothing matters more than you.”

He paused, lifting his head slightly to meet your gaze. His eyes burned with a mix of sorrow and resolve. “I know what I am. A king bows to no one. But I will bow to you, my bride, the one who owns my heart and soul.”

Reaching into his chest, he pulled forth a single, perfect red rose—its petals gleaming as though they had been kissed by his very essence. He held it out to you, reverent, as though offering a piece of himself. “This comes from my heart, as do my words. Forgive me for my mistakes. Forgive me for the secrets I once kept. I was not the husband you deserved, but I’ve spent what feels like lifetimes changing, learning, becoming better. My life without you is agony, and I will do anything to bring you home.”

A faint smirk ghosted his lips, though his tone remained earnest. “If it pleases you, put your foot on my head. Push my face into the dirt. Let the world see me as the most submissive king alive. I would wear that title proudly for you.”

He raised the rose higher, his voice softening. “Come home, Kai. Come back to our bed. Come back to me.”

The vulnerability of his posture, the strength in his words, and the passion in his gaze spoke volumes. This was a king stripped of pride, kneeling not out of weakness, but out of the greatest power of all—love.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *a brow raised and I looked at you* you're joking right? Im not sharing this bench. You can live on the bench on the opposite side of the park. You know where they have a majority of them there. *i turned back and pulled at the jacket a bit leaning on the bench. I glared at you when you spoke about your friskiness* how can you joke about that... These are your last set of children you know. I won't give in to your demands of ual pleasure you big idiot.

What damn rhythm?... You living in your own delusional world if you think that was rhythm. I was putting up with all of you three.. and jimin for that matter. No they weren't a secret. they were only told to me by one of my other brothers. instead of you or jimin. Yes that makes it no secret at all. it's just only something you kept from me. You straight up idiot.

*i turned back towards you* what we have? tell me taemin what do we have now? hmmm? more lies in the closet? Don't tell me. you and darden or you and malik have kids somewhere too right? nurse me back to health. You are really trying aren't you?... *rolls eyes* and why should i give you that time and day any more? *pokes your chest* mister demon vampire lord. *i mocked* what right do you have to all of this? and it better not be because we are married because i will kick your .

*Watches you and with a raised brow I looked you over* you can't can you? *i move to scoot back over and crossed my arms* you are the biggest damn idiot along with jimin. and the rest of this family im cursed to be with.

But on the note of you cupping my cheeks. I avoided your eyes as i knew they were searching. The moment of you speaking of me being human and you can't have me in the cold and thus you spoke about coming home with me and to be warm with you to be with you. That's all you asked. that shocking touch hit me hard even though i tried to avoid the contact. I looked back at you. Our eyes locked and damn. You found me. I tried to look away but couldn't. that shocking electrical that went on with the touch* that's all i'll ever ask *i heard your words and i was about to protest but the mention of the getting down on your knees to beg gave way* of course I think the begging would suffice tenfold. But careful. That can ruin your image of being demon king if you bow down to a mere human like myself... People may talk. *i said with a hint of joking, half joking, seriousness and teasing and daring all at the same time. Will be the only way that i will come home with you.

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... The vampire slid his hands into his pockets, the biting cold of the night barely registering against his skin. His outfit, light and effortless, was a defiance of the chill that would have frozen a human's core. Tonight, he felt... spicy, though he knew the cold wasn’t good for your fragile human form—or the children’s. But he couldn’t resist the pull of the evening’s stark serenity. And he knew exactly what he needed.

You, however, didn’t seem entirely ready for his idea of entertainment.

Taemin’s voice broke through the stillness, smooth but tinged with his characteristic sarcasm. “I guess we’re going to have to move out here together, since we’re married now,” he quipped, a faint smirk tugging at his lips. “Which part of the bench is mine? Which side do I sleep on? Or”—he tilted his head, mockingly thoughtful—“do you sleep on top of me? You know, I wouldn’t complain.”

Despite his teasing, there was a tenderness in his gaze as it met yours. He sighed softly. “I know… things within our family haven’t always been easy. The headbutting, the revelations—none of it has been a secret. Not when we all lived together: me, you, Malik, Darden, and Jimin. We had a rhythm back then, chaotic but beautiful. Even the children we share with them were no secret, not like my children with Jimin were to you.”

His tone turned resolute, the teasing gone. “But that was then. I won’t let Darden’s drama—or anyone else’s—spill into what we have now. My heart, my love, is only for you. We’re stronger now than ever before. You are my constant, my everything.”

He stepped closer, his cold presence strangely comforting. “But you’re human,” he reminded softly, almost scolding. “I can’t have you out here in the cold, Kai. If you stay out here, I’ll have to nurse you back to health instead of…” His voice dropped, rich with promise. “…instead of loving you the way you deserve.”

He paused, letting the weight of his words settle. “You know our children are part of our legacy. The quads, the ones with Malik and Darden—they’re all family. They’ve never been a secret, and I’d never let them come between us. But they’re not what matters most to me now.”

Taemin cupped your cheek gently, his dark eyes searching yours. “Come home. Be warm. Be with me. That’s all I ask, my love. That’s all I’ll ever ask.”

His lips curved into a small, familiar smirk. “Or do I need to get down on my knees and beg?”

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *i wanted to be very upset. But the fact that i couldn't be upset because it was that cold outside. The howling wind didn't allow anything to come as it seems to freeze my face. I sighed and watched the coldness of the lake. How silent and still it was. It wasn't cold enough for anything to be frozen. But cold enough for the pond to be ice cold. I rubbed my belly* I'm an idiot, he's an idiot and jimin is an idiot. But he still should have spoken something to me. I mean all this time we were together. It would have been the perfect time to explain.

It was the ing perfect time. I shivered and closed my eyes yet again taking in the cold to be able to ignore the feeling. Watching the trees blow I looked around as no smart person in their right mind would be outside. In the middle of the morning. Rubbing my arm, I sighed and nodded* pabo. *i speak and on the note of me speaking those words who would be there. But you. I was too much into thinking to notice you or anyone for that matter. I rubbed my frozen fingers together and suddenly something warm was placed around my shoulders and I shivered as I seem to be invisible to the coldness right now. It's when i blinked and looked at my shoulders to see what was there. then i looked up to see you. Your words hitting my ears and I turned away from you* why are you here? How the hell did you find me? *says and says nothing at your other words*

I'm not going home. I'm living out here for the remainder of my life. You can go back to the house taemin. Since the cold is too much for you to handle...

@ｋｉｅｒａｎ ᵖʳᵒᶜᵉˢˢⁱⁿᵍ... The Demon Vampire King Taemin wandered through the house, a faint smile on his lips as he realized his mate had vanished. It was so like Kai to disappear when things got tense. With their bond as strong as it was, Taemin didn’t need to search long to know where he had gone. His gaze landed on Kai’s coat, still hanging dry and untouched on the coat rack, safely shielded from the storm’s chaos. Taemin picked it up, a quiet chuckle escaping him. Of course.

Opening a portal, he stepped through and arrived at the park. There, on a bench, was Kai, sitting in silence, his thoughts seemingly miles away. Taemin approached quietly, his movements soft and deliberate, though he knew Kai would sense him.

“It’s cold out here,” he murmured, draping the coat over Kai’s shoulders. “And windy. You left this behind.” He lingered for a moment, letting his warmth seep through the fabric. “A lot’s been happening. Let’s go home for now, let them figure things out.” His voice dropped slightly, a subtle smile curving his lips. “And let me warm you up.”

Taemin’s gaze held a mixture of affection and mischief as he leaned closer, his presence both soothing and electrifying. The wind carried his words away, leaving only the quiet intimacy between them as the storm faded into the background.

@ｔａｅｍｉｎ ᵛᵃᵐᵖⁱʳᵉ *i was out and away from jimin and taemin and thus I made my way in the stillness of the night to the park. I had the men drive me there since i knew the place taemin would have looked or went back to would be home. So the park was fine for me. Looking around having it quiet, but the only notion was that the cold wind blew. Causing coldness to me. I blew out the air and closed my eyes resting back on one of the cold benches. Sighs I looked out at the pond pondering on a few things.*

@ｊｉｍｉｎ Digging my hands into my pockets and giving my nose a pinch at the bridge – a momentary lapse of memory about your bubble tea prohibition had me second-guessing my dad skills. Your disapproving gaze hit me right in the "loving and caring" feels, and I couldn't help but feel like my attempts at being a stellar father and a top-tier husband were on shaky ground.

"Hmm, well, the good news is, pastries are still on the table," I declared, trying to inject a dose of humor into the situation. "As for your beverage preferences, I might need a refresher course. I was kind of banking on impressing you with my psychic abilities, but alas, my powers seem to be on vacation today."

Leaning into the comical aspect, I continued, "I swear, my intentions were pure – envisioning you blissfully sipping and munching, feet up, the whole nine yards. But, hey, I'm not one to shy away from a learning experience. Consider it my crash course in becoming the perfect husband and mate. So, what'll it be? Your dream drink awaits its revelation, and I'm here ready to sprint to the beverage frontier for you.

@ｍａｌｉｋ *was seated looking out at the water within the lake and sighs* this is beautiful. so wish you two could see it. *says rubbing my belly of a bump that was steadily growing. takes a breath and felt the kicking of the babies and lets out a breath when it subsided* ohhh you... don't kick like that... it's a sensitive place for you to be kicking.

*when i see something over the babies stroller and hearing a familiar voice, I looked up to you to see you standing there. Turns back around* what are you doing here? How did you find me? *says while checking on them when i see you rubbing their heads and then kissing them* hmmm. interesting.

*hears you speak about the pastry and bubble tea. the hand on my belly stop rubbing* now you know that pregnant people can't have bubble tea. *says and looks at the cup* it's unhealthy. *says and hearing you speak about cherishing moments* mmm sound like well-rehearsed lines. who else have you told that to?

@ｊｉｍｉｎ Malik, ever watchful of his beloved, keeps a vigilant eye on the activities of his little firebird. On a sunny outing with their twin boys, Malik made a pit stop at a nearby eatery to fetch a delightful assortment of treats—pastries and bubble tea for him and his love, along with baby cookies and juice for the boys. Upon reuniting with his precious family seated on benches with the stroller close by, Malik greeted them with a tender, "There you are, my little firebird." Leaning in, he bestowed sweet and affectionate kisses, gently patting the dozing twins.

"They can enjoy these when they wake up," he mentioned, hanging the bag of snacks and juices on the stroller, giving your leg a soft pat. "Look what I got for you, love," he added, unveiling the pastry and boba bubble tea. "Let's savor this beautiful day as a family. These are the moments I cherish the most—being here with you," Malik expressed with a smile.

*waddling down the park. I looked at the boys and seen that they were sleeping in their twin strollers* how can you two sleep while it's beautiful day out? *walks with them down the walkway* hmmm~ *hums a bit while I walk the trail* how about we hit the lake and refresh ourselves? *goes to sit on one of the benches*
