It sounds like you have a parasite draw, which is a short somewhere in your vehicles electrical circuits which is drawing current from he battery, If you check the voltage of your battery now, what is it? It should be close to 12.5V if it is new.

With cables connected testing at between 7.6 and 9.6 disconnected it's slowing charging itself back up
