After a joyful night with my three closest friends, I was on my way to go home. It was late and the stars were already up. My friends had insisted to escort me home, but I insisted on going alone. I could defend myself.

Just one more turn and I'll be home. The street I was in right then always made me shiver. It was probably the darkest street in the whole city and made me feel extremely unsafe and vulnerable. Nobody took this road voluntarily except, of course, the stubborn me. But I could defend myself.

"You!" I froze right on the spot even though my instincts told me to run.

"Look what we have here." A middle-aged man, who didn't seem to know a thing like hygiene at all, stood beside me. His mouth was left open as he had trouble breathing properly. He stank of alcohol, it made me want to vomit.

"Had a nice night out?" He asked and hiccuped. I didn't dare to answer, which apparently pushed all buttons inside of him.

"Answer me, damn it!" He yelled and forced me to the closest wall. He was taller than me but not much, so I had the bad smell of cigarettes and alcohol right in my nose. I forcefully closed my eyes. This is the time I'm gonna get raped.

Just as I thought, he grabbed me on my chest and stood way too close to comfort. My heart was racing like crazy, it felt like it was exploding. Tears were streaming down my face. I wanted to scream but I couldn't make a sound nor move. The man groaned before something even happened. He deeply disgusted me. But I had thought I could defend myself.

At the very moment, he wanted to rip off my clothes, another higher voice rang out:

"Are we doing this again? Drunk paedophiles assaulting young women? Really?"

I opened my teary eyes to catch sight of a grey-haired man as tall as the drunk man standing behind us. Wearing a black leather jacket with blue ripped jeans, he stood there confidently. He had a scar on his left eyebrow which made him look kind of intimidating. The scariest part about him was his glowing red eyes and sharp teeth, but I could tell that I would be much safer with him.

"Get lost. She's my girlfriend." The man grunted and continued doing things to me.

"She doesn't look like she's enjoying it, though." He replied.

"You do enjoy it, right?" The paedophile asked me. "Say something!" Then he slapped me recklessly and I held my cheek which was burning from his heavy slap.

"Alright, that's it."

The grey-haired man pulled the drunk one away from me and punched him right in his stomach and then in his face. After that, he violently attacked the man's neck whose legs couldn't carry him anymore and fell to the ground after the red-eyed one was done with him. His mouth was full of blood and after he had cleaned himself up with a handkerchief, he said:

"Tastes as disgusting as he acts."

I was relieved that the man was gone for now. I sank to the ground and was shaking and sobbing uncontrollably. I felt so dirty. Then my saviour came closer and kneeled down next to me, putting his hand on my back to comfort me. It made me feel safe.

"He's gone now. You don't have to fear anything anymore." His voice has grown soft.

"Look at me." He whispered and so I did.

His eyes were still red. Before that, I didn't even have time to think about how I was dealing with a vampire just at this moment. However, as I directly stared into his eyes they turned into a warm brown. He looked like a normal human being now. I sniffled.

"I feel so dirty," I whined.

"I'm sorry that has happened to you." The man pulled me into his embrace. Unlike the other man, he didn't smell like alcohol, he smelled refreshing with a hint of vanilla. Everything about him made me feel safe.

"Thank you so much for saving me before worse things could happen," I said and he looked at me with compassion.

"Can I bring you home?" He asked.

"Y-yes. Please."

"Would you mind telling me where you live then?" You really shouldn't trust strangers like that, but somehow, I knew I could trust him.

"Just around the corner in the big blue building. My apartment is the one with the balcony on the highest floor."

"Come here." He got up and offered me his hand which I gladly accepted. Instead of walking me home, he suddenly picked me up.

"Hold on tight." With that, he jumped, with me in his arms, onto the rooftops until we landed on my little balcony. Luckily, I had my balcony door opened before I left, so I could enter my apartment without any trouble.

"Thank you again," I said to the vampire who just smiled and I turned around. But then I hesitated.

"Wait!" I turned around and saw that the vampire had still been watching me "May I know your name?"

"It's Hongjoong."

Hello! This is my first author's note, I think lol. I will probably not update this one-shot book that often anymore since I'm currently working on another book! It'll be a Yeosang x Reader story, so if you're interested in that you might want to have a look at it once it's out :)
