A/n : First of all, I'd really like to apologise for not updating for more than 1 month. I know how much you guys support me and love this story, an I am really grateful for how understanding y'all are. I still don't know if I'll be able update regularly anytime soon :( But I hope that day comes again. I miss writing my stories so much :'( Ffs, I shouldn't have taken this internship I am doing. It's literally sucking the soul out of me. But anyway, I can't live without updating anymore 😤😤

As soon as I was done drinking the tea, a sense of calm immediately took over me. Sana was right, it must be some enchantment she had mixed into it because it felt like drinking a warm cup of your favourite tea while watching the meadows, enjoying the cool breeze and staring at the sunset with the purple sky cascading over you.

But I knew this calm was nothing but an illusion for my feelings. We were in some deep crisis and the answer to it was about to be revealed. Fully. I looked at Sana, giving her the empty cup with a soft grateful smile. "Now... Can we get to the bottom of this?" I asked.

She nodded and went to keep the cup in the kitchen counter as she washed her hands and dried it off. "I guess Yeonjun must be awake by now, let's go check on him... And your other friends." She said and helped me up as my feet still felt wobbly and my head was still so heavy like I was carrying boulders inside them.

I knocked a couple of times on Yeonjun's door which was slightly ajar, before walking inside. He was up, and drinking from a similar cup as me in his hand. Maybe he was having the same tea I had. I guess, we all needed that by the looks of it. Jimin smiled comfortingly at me as he took the cup from Yeonjun and Kai immediately stood up at my sight.

"Oh Hyun Ae! How are you feeling now?" He asked with concern flashing over his eyes.

"Don't worry about me Hyuka... I..." I trailed off in a frail voice and looked over at Yeonjun who was staring at me with an unreadable look in his eyes. He looked like he wanted to speak, say something or just get out of bed and maybe come to me. Or to be more precise... Scream.

Scream that why does this always happen to us?

"Who was he? He looked exactly like Yeonjun." Soobin spoke up as he pushed his weight up from the bean bag at the corner of the room.

Taehyung who was drawing the curtains, turned and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "I see you feel responsible for all this, don't you?" He said with a chuckle.

"I—" Soobin started but cut himself off as he looked away, clenching his fists. "Would this not have happened if I hadn't come here?" He asked, his voice low and soft but strained nonetheless.

Taehyung took a deep breath before he let out a sigh, as if to compose himself. "To answer your question... And to be really blunt about it... How about you sit down—"

"Oh for heaven's sake Taehyung, you're being far from blunt." Yoongi snorted and rolled his eyes. "Soobin, yes. If you didn't come, then none of this would've happened." He replied plainly leaving a gawking Taehyung with his eyes wide as if saying 'you heartless piece of stone!'.

Soobin took a gulp and bit his lip without saying anything. Beomgyu stood by his side and put his arm on his shoulder. "But we don't regret having Soobin with us. Just tell us how can we stop that dragon or doppelganger Yeonjun... Whatever that is."

"Guys guys, just, listen first, okay?" Jungkook said holding his hands up.

"So... Hyun Ae, remember what we said about Yin and Yang?" Hoseok asked making me nod.

"Yeonjun is Yin." Said Jin, walking towards Yeonjun's bed and sitting at his foot. "That dragon is Yang."

"What? How.." I furrowed my eyebrows and shook my head. "But how is this possible?"

Sana and Jimin shared a look and pursed their lips. "Because of you." Said Jimin, as if this wouldn't have felt like I'll fall from sky after that blunt piece of information.

"This cosmos is made of heavenly bodies, guardians, angels, Archangels and many more. After humans came into existence, God made Yin and Yang, the symbols of good and evil, connected with each other, having a bit of both in them just like human nature. This... You can say a symbol for the 7 virtues and the 7 sins." Sana started and then paused sharing a look with Yoongi, who nodded his head as if beckoning her to continue. "Just like we are the guardians of Magic Shop and Soobin was one of the guardian angels of one of the many spirit realms, Yeonjun... Was... Is... Well you get the drill, it's a dragon..." She trailed off.

"I was a what?" Yeonjun spoke up for the first time this time, but he barely was heard because Jungkook just gave him a look and said, "Can't be that hard to believe, now shush."

Jimin tried not to smile a little at how Jungkook said. "Hyun Ae, before being a human, you were an angel. Just an angel, but beautiful and alluring nonetheless, and you became friends with the dragons. Specifically Yin, who was the Golden dragon."

I made an 'o' shape with my lips as I thought back to the dream I had. So that wasn't just a dream, was it? It was Yeonjun.

"The thing is, Yin, I mean Yeonjun fell in love with you, but you had to be sent for a human life. You both couldn't tolerate the separation so with you, Yin came too leaving Yang, or that doppelganger Yeonjun alone. This shouldn't have been because that was strictly not allowed... You see, it created a imbalance in the Universe. Only the existence of Yang without Yin wasn't just threatening to everyone else but to Yang himself. You both keep each other and in turn the entire Universe in control... To seal the world specially from Yang's wrath, Guardian angels were designated... Aka Soobin. When he left, he left one of the doors to this world unguarded... It was just the door Yang needed to enter to wreck havoc... To have Yeonjun back because you both are one." He said looking at Yeonjun.

"The Black dragon and the Golden dragon are one? How?" Taehyun asked.

"It's like... Liking a person for their qualities but also embracing their imperfections!" Taehyung said quickly. "I think so... At least."

I sighed, falling on to a nearby chair. "So it's my fault?"

Sana shook her head, "Obviously not! You fell in love. Loving is not a fault."

"But... How do I fix it?" I said desperately, even scared at the thought of losing everyone I value in my life right now. This felt so unreal. All of this information... It was hard to take in, and even harder to think this is all my and Yeonjun's doing. Our responsibility.

"Well that..." Hoseok sighed. "We don't know, perhaps start from taming a beast?" He said flashing a helpless smile and oh god, I honestly felt my soul leaving my body this time.

Taming the beast... Huh...

That freaking dragon is more ferocious and smarter than any beast ever born.
