A sigh left Heeseung as he watched both Youngtaek and Beomgyu interact with each other. It was obvious wasn't it?

The two of them were clearly mates but either Beomgyu ignored it or Youngtaek was too oblivious to the way they acted around each other.

Heeseung didn't say anything though, as he figured they would work things out themselves. All he could do for the time being was just observe.

"What do you want Seongyoon?" Demanded Beomgyu as he glared at said vampire. "You've had enough time to be with the fox," stated Seongyoon. "I would like him to come back now," he added.

"I'm not coming back to you," growled Youngtaek, being stubborn as ever. "You heard what he said," added Beomgyu. "He's not staying here any longer under you," he spat.

Heeseung was only observing the conversation going on, but he understood where Beomgyu and Youngtaek were coming from in terms of what he had been told, and even he didn't want to be stuck in a place like this for years like Youngtaek had.

"Look," started Heeseung as he got between Beomgyu and Seongyoon. "Here's my opinion, as an outsider," he added. "I wouldn't dare get between a 'shifter and his mate, and even then you'd have to get through his bodyguard first," he growled.

Beomgyu looked like he was going to protest, however he saw how quickly Seongyoon backed off, not expecting Heeseung to say something. "Were you too stupid to see the signs? Because I knew from the moment I met them," growled Heeseung.

"Who are you to be Beomgyu's bodyguard huh?" Asked Seongyoon. "Back off leech," snarled Heeseung as he took a threatening step forward. "Come on then dog, I dare you," hissed Seongyoon.

"Heeseung, stop it," commanded Beomgyu as he put a hand on Heeseung's shoulder. "That's enough," he said, tightening his grip. "Fine," growled Heeseung as he backed down for the time being, glaring at Seongyoon who glared right back at him.

"Youngtaek is staying with me, for obvious reasons," explained Beomgyu. "I'm sure you realize now, what those reasons are?" He asked. "I didn't want to pull that card, but it seems Heeseung beat me to it," he hummed. "Fine," sighed Seongyoon. "Do what you want fox," he said to Youngtaek. "I don't care anymore, it was inevitible that you left me," he added.

Youngtaek let out a shaky breath, causing Beomgyu to turn to him. "F-Fine," grumbled Youngtaek. "I didn't want to stay with you anymore anyway," he added. "We'll be leaving now," he said in goodbye, turning and walking away. Beomgyu turned, glaring at Seongyoon before turning back and walking away. Heeseung scoffed, though he didn't do much else and walked away.

"Were you two just oblivious to the fact that you're mates?" Asked Heeseung as they stopped at a foodstand so Youngtaek could get some food. "I knew, and I'm sure that Youngtaek knew also," responded Beomgyu as he shrugged. "We've never had to say anything about it until now however," he added, shaking his head at Heeseung.

"I'm sorry, I was just trying to keep it from turning into a fight," grumbled Heeseung. "It's okay," hummed Beomgyu as he shook his head. "I know you were only trying to help," he added. "It's fine," he said.

They both turn to Youngtaek who walked over with a sandwich wrapped in plastic, Youngtaek sitting on the other side of Beomgyu who turned his body to face him.

"Are you okay?" Asked Beomgyu. "I'm fine, relieved really," replied Youngtaek as he took a bite of his sandwich. "It's going to take some getting used to, since I don't have to see him anymore," he added.

"Also, we were planning on talking about us being mates at some point right?" Asked Youngtaek as he looked at Beomgyu. "Honestly? I thought we were passed that when we revealed secrets about ourselves?" Asked Beomgyu. "That's true, I guess," hummed Youngtaek.

"Can you introduce me to Kai?" Asked Youngtaek. "As your mate anyway?" He asked. "I guess I can," mumbled Beomgyu as he shrugged. "I know you probably don't want to head back, but I would like to see his resting place," explained Youngtaek. "I get it," responded Beomgyu. "We'll head over in the morning yeah? You need to sleep," he added. "But where?" Asked Youngtaek. "I know a place, come on," responded Beomgyu as he got up and walked away, Youngtaek scrambling after him.

"What about Heeseung?" Asked Youngtaek. "He'll meet us there, he knows where I'm taking you," hummed Beomgyu. "Okay then," hummed Youngtaek.

Heeseung was feeling nostalgic as he walked around the city after hunting, humming to himself as he kept his hands in his pockets. He wasn't looking for trouble, but he knew when someone was following after him. He ignored it, getting a text notification on his phone and checking it before continuing on his stroll, spotting a church nearby and heading in, sitting down in one of the pews at the back.

"Wow, I haven't seen you in quite a long time," came a voice as Seungmin went to sit down beside Heeseung. "It certainly has been a while huh?" Asked Heeseung as he studied the cross at the altar of the church.

"What brings you back to Russia?" Asked Seungmin as he looked ahead at the altar. "I decided to travel with Beomgyu," hummed Heeseung. "Thank you, for the help on getting Niki and I out of the country by the way," he added. Seungmin nodded. "It's not a problem, and there's a small door towards the altar you can leave from," he responded as he shifted slightly, crossing his arms over his chest in thought. "I know you were being followed," he added. Heeseung nodded, getting to his feet and making his way to the door, waving to Seungmin before leaving.

Seungmin scoffed, getting to his feet and leaving the church after a few minutes, going a different direction.

"Jesus Taehyun, can you stop following me?" Asked Heeseung as he stopped and turned around to look at said person. "i thought it was you I saw, does that mean Gyu is back?" Asked Taehyun as he came to a stop in front of Heeseung. "It is," hummed Heeseung. "But you're not getting his location from me," he added.

"That's fine, we were heading back to the fort since it's Kai's birthday next week, tell Gyu to come over yeah?" Asked Taehyun. "Sure," hummed Heeseung. "Is that it?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest. Taehyun nodded, turning and walking away. Heeseung sighed in exasperation before turning and heading to the meeting spot.
