"What if I told you Jimin played a game with us, He didn't just abandon you but played with you for his malicious acts" Seokjin's voice brushed Taehyung's ears and he couldn't do anything beside to get curious to unravel the truth.

Taehyung was stunned by the fact he heard from his brother's mouth. Never, He had expected to hear something like this about the person he trusted the most.

His heart ached, His vision faded because the tears filled his eyes but he struggled to hold them back.

"Show me then" Taehyung shortly said, His voice cracked but he attempted to be strong although his struggle seemed to fail miserably.

"Come with me," Seokjin commanded, he then turned back to the door and emerged out of the room.

Taehyung proceed with his brother walking through the long passageway and walking down the stairs, Seokjin brought him to the old Dungeon.

"Did they catch him again?"

"No, It shouldn't happen, if he did something wrong then older brother would punish him"

"Jiminah you can't be caught again"

For a moment his heart hammered loudly in his chest, As Taehyung walked down to the stairs and now they both came to the basement where merely a few people were allowed to come. As  Lord Seokjin would hide his treasures and weapons in this basement or sometimes He would lock dangerous criminals.

Seokjin now stopped in front of the small chamber, The iron door creaked loudly as Seokjin pulled back to open it and stepped inside.

Taehyung breathed in satisfaction when he find an unknown man sitting on the iron chair, His hands were tied with a silver chain that had cuffs attached to it with sharp long teeth inside. The blood was seeping out from his wrist making him weak.

Standing near the fireplace, Jungkook was lighting the iron on fire while Namjoon was holding a knife in his hand.

"Let's see how long you can endure this pain?" Namjoon crooned, Gestured Jungkook to proceed with the torture.

A painful voice reverberated in the walls of the chamber as Jungkook stabbed the hot iron into the man's thigh, And the sizzling sounds of burning flesh brushed Taehyung's ears.

He felt sorry for the victim, For the first time in the last year, Taehyung felt his heart clutched against his ribs, His eyes narrowed in fear When he saw Seokjin's eyes glaring like wildfire. His sharp canon teeth grew longer not because of the craving for humans but because of the anger and hatred, he was feeling for the half-dead man.

"Meet the new creature on land," Seokjin said, As he dashed himself back to the chair, "Demon's puppet" Seokjin introduced the creature by revealing his face.

Taehyung widened his eyes in shock, He had never seen something like this, His face was paler as if his body was dried out of blood, His limb looked completely grey whilst his eye socket was empty.

"You must have seen something similar almost a year ago" As Seokjin began to speak, Taehyung's mind took a memory lane when Oh Nara had died on the day when they both had escaped the hellhole.

"Oh Nara, I remembered Jimin had fed on her" Taehyung replied, His eyes constantly sticking to the anonymous creature"But why he looked like her? I mean did Jimin feed on him?"

Seokjin nodded, "But he didn't kill him, He turned his prey into a demon puppet by using his dark powers, A puppet who will do anything Jimin would ask him to do" He explained the entire situation.

"Jimin is hidden in the dark castle, He's creating a force to protect him, It's not enough, Soon he will become the lord of the Ghakorine kingdom through the help of  Kangdae" It was Namjoon who now began to speak, Whilst his eyes mocked Taehyung.

"How can it be possible that Kangdae would help him to do something like this? " Taehyung asked curiously, It was hard for him to trust every word but he couldn't deny the truth his eyes were witnessing.

Seokjin gave him a deadly glare before he began to speak "Because Jimin is controlling his mind" He explained.

Taehyung exhaled a long breath in annoyance, He ruffled the back of his hair and waited for Seokjin to speak further.

"On the day when you both escaped, Lord Shin had run away with the fear of being caught by Jimin, But Kangdae abducted him in a cave and they all didn't leave Ghakorine, He kept hidden for days but a few days before the ritual, I received a letter through Kangdae that told me, Lord Shin was killed in the fire, I thought it was true so I told you but Jimin lied to you about selling him back to Lord Shin and then I realized that Jimin is using all of us.
When he left you alone so I sent Hoseok to bug on him, And For months Hoseok just spied on Jimin,  Since the first day he came into this castle, Jimin was using all of us, He lightened up the fire in the dark castle and through his dark powers, he began to control Kangdae's mind, And then Jimin's next goal to opened the gate of his powers completely that was only possible when someone would be angered the demonic spirit so he pretends as he's not able to control his demon side, While he capable to do such things, And we all foolishly fell in his trap.
His strongest weapon was you, Who was madly in love with him, You weren't ready to give up on him so, in the end, he made me do the thing he wanted to do, Without knowing the consequences I foolishly asked Yoongi to perform the ritual, I thought If I detached his demonic powers so he will be able to live a normal life but coincidentally I awakened the demon completely, And right at the moment when Yoongi detached his demonic spirit from his body he completely emerged himself with the demon spirit that made him the strongest one in all"

Seokjin stopped after explaining everything to Taehyung, Who now stood stunned at his spot.

"And why he's doing this when he can kill Lord Shin easily,?" Taehyung asked frowning his brows.

"But the more important thing is why he lied about Lord Shin and why he lied about Seokjin?" Jungkook interrupted, His question merely tangled Taehyung's mind further.

"Because he had two reasons," Namjoon added, "First he didn't want to divert our attention to Lord Shin cause it could reveal his truth, Second he lied about Seokjin because he wanted to create Chaos between you and Seokjin, perhaps it's his nature, Demon vampires are always like this, Doing such things that bring chaos and calamity," He ended his sentence with a slight smirk and Taehyung couldn't control his anger.

Right at that moment Hoseok entered the chamber and earned all the attention on him, "There is something important going to happen tonight, Kangdae announced Ghakorine people gathered together at the mill creek ground"

"Isn't that place for the cruel punishment?" Jungkook asked curiously.

"Perhaps he's going to punish Lord Shin tonight?" Seokjin mumbled.

Taehyung rashly turned back to leave, He couldn't understand if should he be angry with Jimin or if should he celebrate the victory, At this moment he just wanted to see the older's face.

Seokjin frowned over his brother's madness but Hoseok made him stop.

"Let him go," Hoseok said, he turned back to glance at Taehyung, Somehow he felt sympathy for both.

"Are you crazy, that bastard can hurt Taehyung we shouldn't leave him alone" Namjoon suggested, Atlas he had to express that his husband's younger brother was important to him as well. Although the truth was the opposite.

"I'll go with him, But I think he deserves to witness Lord Shin's punishment by his eyes," Jungkook said, During this period he barely spend his time with Taehyung but one thing he had observed that Taehyung wasn't someone who could give up on Jimin that easily.

Seokjin nodded his head, " Take enough amount of force with you" He commanded.
