Fiction Suspense Kids

Jungkook and Tania were newly married couple. They were recently married like a month ago. You might think they were in love or something by the looks of it or by looking at their wedding ring but that was so not the case. They were anything but in love.

Their marriage was nothing but an arrangement that was made by their parents. It was necessary. It was the need of the time.

You must be thinking why was their marriage so important? It was because they both had a secret that only they and their families knew.

Jungkook was a werewolf.

Tania was a vampire.

They were the last of their kind. And to make sure that no one could capture or kill them their families had to make a decision to get them married. They were each other's support if not love.

Having moving in a new apartment in a new neighborhood everything was new to the couple. They were still in the phase of getting to know each other while getting familiar with the neighborhood too.

Halloween was just around the corner and the thought alone was making the couple very anxious.

Because Halloween means letting out the demons, the inner beast.

On every Halloween Jungkook and Tania would turn into their natural form.

Jungkook would turn into a werewolf and Tania would turn into a vampire. It was something that was beyond their control and so to make sure they would hurt no one they use to keep themselves locked in their house.

This time again they both planned to not leave the house and avoid meeting anybody.

“Hello Mr J.” Jungkook was working in his gardens when he heard a little kid call out to him.

“Hey kiddo. How have you been doing?” Jungkook replied, smiling.

“I’m good. There is a Halloween party next door tomorrow. Will you and Ms Tania come too? I have not seen ms tania and I miss her.” The little kid, Taehyung pouted.

Taehyung was a 10 year old boy who lived right across the street and he immediately took a liking to Tania as she was super sweet with the kids.

“Uhh”, Jungkook didn't know how to tell the little kid that they won't be out the whole week.

“We’ll try our best tae.” Jungkook was saved when he heard his wife coming out from behind him and bending down to pat Tae’s fluffy hair.

“Please do come ms tania. I miss spending time with you and listen to your stories.” Taehyung answered with large almond eyes.

Tania chuckled and nodded.

The kid left after getting a few candies from Tania.

“You shouldn't have given the little boy hope. You and I we both know we aren't gonna go.” Jungkook sighed and spoke.

“I couldn't break his heart. Did you not see how he was sulking?” Tania smiled sadly. “I wish we were normal. I never spent Halloween with the kids, afraid that I might bite into them.”

Jungkook saw the sad look on his wife's face and leaned forward to wrap her in his arms, comforting her.

“I wish that too. But for now we've got to make sure these little kids especially your precious boy Taetae doesn't get hurt.”

Tania smiled at her husband's comforting words. No matter how much she wants to spend Halloween with the kids, she can't. She can not risk the lives of others and especially the little boy who just took her heart with his boxy smile and large puppy eyes. That kid was too hard to resist and Tania wouldn't let anything or anyone harm him.

It was the night of the party and Taehyung was in the house with the other kids, constantly looking at the door waiting for the couple to show up.

“What's wrong Taehyungie? Are you not enjoying with your friends?” Taehyung's mother spoke when she saw the way Taehyung was not paying attention to his surroundings.

“Ms Tania said she'll come to the party. I wanted to sit with her and listen to her stories.” The little kid turned to his mother with eyes full of tears now.

“Now now dear, don't cry. How about you go and call them yourself?” Taehyung's mother smiled down at him and nudged him to go out and call Tania himself.

Taehyung immediately lit up at the idea and happily went out the door and straight to Tania and Jungkook's house.

“Ms Tania. Mr Jungkook.” The little boy called out loud when no one answered the door. He tried banging it loudly but his little hands wouldn't allow it.

Thinking of an idea he went around the house and tried looking for an opening.

“Aha!” Taehyung whisper shouted when he found a very small opening where he could squeeze after a lot of struggle.

Once inside Taehyung dusted off his clothes then proceeded to look around.

The house was eerily quite and Taehyung was starting to feel a little restless.

It was dark however he could still see where everything was.

He took small steps and called out to Tania.

“Ms Tania. Hello?”

His voice echoed back to him.

“I-I think I should leave.” Taehyung spoke to himself, now scared because he was feeling a little cold suddenly.

“So soon?” A voice whispered in his ear and Taehyung jumped from his place.

He turned around but there was no one.

Taehyung's blood run cold because he was sure he heard someone loud and clear but now no one was here.

He quickly turned around and went to squeeze himself out of the door but something or someone caught his foot.

“Ahhh..” Taehyung shouted when the thing dragged him back inside.

His eyes met the big red angry orbs and Taehyung froze.

“W-who are you?” The little boy cried and tried and getting away but the creature held him tightly.

“I and your friend and I am about to eat you!” The creature roared and opened his jaw to reveals sharp big tenths. But before the creature could hurt Taehyung, someone pushed the scary creature off of him.

“Who are you and what are you doing in my house?” Taehyung heard the new stranger speak loudly. When taehyung blinked his tears away to look at the new voice he realized that it was Ms Tania but there was something different about her. Upon focusing Taehyung realized that Ms Tania’s eyes were red and she had sharp fangs. Behind Ms Tania was Mr Jungkook and he too had red eyes and sharp teeths.

“I knew you two were here so I came to kill you both but found a treat here myself.” The creature pointed at Taehyung drooling.

Tania quickly grabbed the little kid and pushed here behind him to keep him safe.

When the creature tried attacking them, Jungkook jumped and dig his long canines in the creature's neck, breaking it into two.

Tania had hidden Taehyung upstairs so that he won't have to witness such gruesome scene.

Only after Jungkook had cleaned the mess, they brought the little boy downstairs.

They were ready to hear all sort of crying and screaming from the little kid about their eyes and teeth but they weren’t ready for what the boy said next.

“Woah cool costumes. That was such a fun role play. Can we do that again?”
