It was almost like a playful game of tag. Kai had run away, immature and scared by what he would end up doing again and Philip, not the type of person to give up, began going after him. Kai was a vampire, he could simply outrun him but he chose not to though, as if he actually wanted the wolf to catch him. 

The forest seemed endless, with trees spreading everywhere around him, the wind hitting his face as he ran. He hadn't felt that free, able to do as he wanted in a while. He always walked with his head down, he didn't speak too loud, he never looked others in the eyes. For two hundred years he had been like that, slowly forgetting himself, who he was. But now, who would judge him? Which enemy would recognise him? Who would go after him? Hidden underneath the thick trees, surrounded by Philip's home he felt at peace, safe as if he was being in his embrace. 

He jumped skillfully over a root that had surfaced from the ground at the last second and looked back for a mere second, curious about where Philip was. His blue eyes wandered in the background but the wolf was out of sight. He blinked a few times, slowing his pace and turned around, searching for him. 

Had he not followed him? He was sure he had. Kai could hear his footsteps as he went after him but for some reason everything was too quiet now. He looked around, suddenly getting worried that something might have gone really wrong. The prince had been lost in his own thoughts, buried again into a small daydream as a way of escaping his reality. 

This place though was part of his nightmare, everywhere he stepped stopped being safe and turned into a war zone. Philip's home, could he have led them here and ruined his shelter? His heart began to speed as he walked around, searching for the wolf.

"Philip?" he called out, his voice hasty. Could someone have hurt him? He wondered as he focused on the sounds of the forest. He could hear birds, rabbits hopping, the creak once more but there were no other signs of anyone else around with him. He bit his bottom lip, getting more and more anxious. 

He stepped deeper into the thick forest, his footsteps loud as he broke branches underneath his boots and fallen leaves. It was weird, being so alone in such a vast place. Everywhere he looked he could see the same scenery but his feelings had changed from before. Now he felt lost going after a dream, as if he was trapped in one of his nightmares. 

The prince had dreamed of similar moments. Many times before actually. Philip would be standing right in front of him, in his room in the palace, in the stables they used to meet secretly or the conference room of the treaties in BloodBound. He would be there, dressed with his warrior uniform, smiling at him, extending his hand for Kai to take it and then, when the young prince tried to reach him he would vanish, leaving him empty and upset. Reminding him that even if happiness was close it was always out of his reach. 

As he kept thinking, depressing himself even more, worrying and hoping this was not one of his dreams he had walked deep into the forest, finding himself away from the path he used to walk on before. He didn't like this feeling, he didn't like all the things he had started feeling ever since Philip had returned, they scared him, made him feel vulnerable again.

"Philip?" he repeated again, his voice cracking as his eyes were filled with tears. He heard a rustle from behind him and his head snapped, startled by the sound. The wolf appeared with a cheeky smile on his face. 

"I tricked you, didn't…" He started saying in a joking manner until he noticed that the vampire was crying. His eyes widened and he rushed towards him, confused. "Kai, are you alright? I am sorry. I just wanted to play a joke on you. Did you get scared?" he asked. 

Kai snorted and wiped his tears aggressively, embarrassed  that he had cried for something so simple. He averted his gaze and crossed his arms over his chest. 

"Of course not." he said, lifting his chin up a bit and Philip smiled.

"Sorry, sorry. I won't scare you again." he told him sweetly as he moved closer. 

"I told you, I was not…" Kai was trying to say he wasn't scared. He was cut off though by finding himself buried in Philip's arms. He was warm and smelled so nice. 

Kai closed his eyes, deciding to remain quiet as he heard his heartbeat on his chest.

It was like a song, a steady rhythm. The blood slowly flowed into his body, from his heart to his veins. 

Suddenly a thought Kai didn't wish to have invaded his mind. As he heard his pulse it began getting louder and louder in his ears. As he smelled his scent he remembered this was the person he had chosen to bite, he remembered how it felt not to want to throw up every time you ate. 

His eyes widened and with a harsh push he removed himself from Philip's arms. 

"Get off." he told him and the wolf looked at him with a frown. 

"Kai…" he called his name. "Why are your eyes…"

Kai felt his mouth watering like a child standing inside a candy shop, his eyes turning a bright crimson. Philip stared at him, realizing what was actually happening as the seconds passed. 

"I want you to leave." Kai said, taking his eyes away from the wolf.
