Both John and Kai looked like an utter mess. The one seemed very sick while the other was field with bruises and cuts. He actually looked a lot worse a few minutes back and felt a lot worse as well but now it wasn't that bad. The quick healing was not something that John would easily get used to. The rapid changes in his body were too much for him to understand. At this point though as he walked slowly back to the entrance of the apartment building, lettin the early morning breeze bring them both to their senses he couldn't think about healing or all this stuff that seemed weird to him. 

"Will my life always be like this?" he asked

"No, it won't. Don't worry." Kai answered him. 

"Why does it feel like your life has always been like this?" 

"No, it wasn't." Kai said with a bitter smile. "My life used to be a lot better. Before some people decided they wanted to destroy it." 

"You know. You and Lun described purebloods as these very strong beings that could defeat an army, especially someone of the royal family but you always get your ass kicked." John said and Kai's blue eyes widened. He looked at John, blinking a few times, surprised with his comment and then he started laughing. It was John's turn to stare at him now. He had never heard Kai laugh before it was almost magical. The way his eyes turned into crescents, small wrinkles in the corners. His perfect teeth and the glow he was emitting. He had never imagined it to be like that. The man who always looked so close and distant while he laughed looked...adorable.

"You know." Kai said once he stopped laughing. "You might be right. I am out of shape, I should fix that actually. I used to be at the top of my class in fighting."

"Your class wasn't that good I see." John teased him. 

"John?" Kai called out and the werewolf stopped. He looked at his Boss with a curious expression, eager to hear what he had to say. 

"Are we...friends?" he asked.

"Excuse me?" The younger man asked in shock. He pulled his head back in an over dramatic motion and frowned. 

"Boss, you don't ask people if they are your friends. They just become your friends." 

"I do not follow the ways of the people. So are we friends?" he asked and the werewolf blushed as he rolled his eyes. 

"Yes, yes we are friends. Happy?" he asked him and retrieved to helping Kai walk. The vampire gave him a faint smile as he squeezed his shoulder. 

"Then I will never let anything happen to you. I promise." he told him and John coughed. 

"Why are you being so expressive all of a sudden? Go back. You make me feel awkward. You chose to say all these things now that we are literally touching each other. Are you trying to seduce me?" he said, joking. 

"You got it." the prince answered him just before the two other vampires came into view. 

They were sitting on the small stairs in front of Kai's building. The pureblood noticed that there was no sign of the bodies of the vampires, just ash spread everywhere, traveling every time the wind blew. He saw Lun sigh, as he looked at the specs lessen and lessen. 

"Most of them are dead." he told Kai when he reached them. His friend stood up for him to sit and Kai finally rested, comfortable allowing his muscles to relax. He turned his head, intending to check on Soran but he immediately stood up, not sparing even one glance at him as he walked away. The blond man frowned, unaware of what happened.

"They left." John said. "The wolves."

"Yes, Soran told me everything. That little wolf put on quite a show." he said with a grin as he locked eyes with Kai. 

"Yeah." he answered, slightly embarrassed that everyone had seen that. Thankfully no one actually talked about the fact that they almost kissed. Kai wished to not think about that. He had sent him away, he had chosen to distance himself and he would pretend and lie to himself. He didn't just almost lose control, it was all part of an act, even though Hans was already gone. 

"We need to get to a safer location. My house is being guarded and I've requested for more vampires to come from Bloodbound. They will probably arrive in a few days. Until we feel completely safe you will be staying inside." Lun told Kai. 

"I will be leaving this area soon." the prince announced. "I think it's time for me to move." 

"What?" Lun and John asked at the same time.

"I am causing too much trouble. It's not just the wolf pack, if word spreads out that I am here more...people will come for me. I don't want any of you to be in danger." 

"Kai, your whole life you have been running away. Do you want to keep doing this. I am here, Soran is here, you have John now. Will you leave everything again? You Won't be able to do it. You will just hurt yourself again." 

"I will be. I have to."

"What about Philip?" John asked. "He is here now. You can't let this chance go away. Boss, you love him. Also please, please don't leave me." the young man told him with teary eyes. "You said we were friends, you said you won't let anything happen to me."

"That's why I…" 

"It is pointless to talk about this right here. Let's get back. We are not safe yet. But Kai, really think about it. Is this how you want your life to be or maybe it's time to put an end to running away?"
