The Purple Eyes | Kim Seungmin

  "Here." Jinae pulled back the blankets, helping Airi get comfortable. "Is there anything you need that I can get you?"

  Airi smiled, grabbing her hand. "Thank you. I'm not sure why you care about me so much, but thank you."

  Taking a seat on the bed with a sigh, she smiled. "Before I met you, I had honestly given up. When you got thrown in to those cages.. you were different." She confessed with a casual shrug.

  "How long had you been locked up by Min?" She frowned, realizing now that she didn't know.

  Jinae let out a chuckle. "Almost a decade. I watched many humans die.. and I couldn't do anything. I'm not proud of anything I've done in my life.. nor do I feel good about escaping when so many couldn't. However, since I met you Airi.." she trailed off, giving another shrug with a sly smile.

  "You sparked something in me, I guess."

"Can you climb that one?!?"

"Yes, I can try!" Miyu insists as Seungmin gives her a boost into the tree, pulling himself up just in time for the wolf to miss him.

The two climb higher and higher until they find a good place to rest. As they've had to do this a few times now, Miyu squeezed her eyes shut as she accidentally looked down.

Out of the sisters, Miyu was definitely the one with the fear of heights.

  Unlike the older sister, Airi was always climbing high up into trees as a child.

Placing a hand on her back, Seungmin moved a bit closer. "You won't fall, I got you."

"Will the others find us? I don't know how long I can-"

"We will find a way out. Bangchan and the others won't leave us to die. The barrier that blocks my abilities will also make it impossible for us to leave or others to find us. Even so, Bangchan and Minho will break those odds, I'm sure of it. Until then, I will keep you safe." He assured, not breaking the eye contact.

Feeling heat fill her body, she couldn't break eye contact from him. He lightly smiled, moving to hold onto her torso as a strong wind blew through.

"S-sorry, are you okay?"

Just as she was about to answer, a loud gasp escapes her mouth. She reaches with one hand to hold her head, continuously groaning and screaming in pain.

"Miyu! Miyu, what's happening!?!"

-

"Airi!! Airi what is going on!?! BYEOL, BYEOL!! SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH AIRI!!" Jinae yelled down the stairs, trying to understand what was wrong.

Byeol, Felix and Jisung all ran in, no one able to figure out the source of her pain.

"Jisung, call Minho, now!" Byeol instructed when the girl suddenly went limp, falling over in her bed. Jinae cried, shaking her to wake up.

"She's okay, she is still breathing and has a heartbeat. Let's lay her down until Minho gets here."

It only took the older ten minutes to arrive as he held a large book with the name 'S. Kim.' on the front.

He inspected Airi, letting out a sigh. "Nothing in Seungmins book could help us with this. Unless something was done to her by Min.."

Jinae shook her head. "I was awake for everything he had done to her since I met her. This can't be something he did."

"Then, if I were to take an educated guess... She is just asleep. Let's monitor her breathing and heartbeat until we can get Chans opinion on the matter."

"Jinae?" Airi rubbed her eyes as Jinae jumped to help her up, franticly asking if she was alright.

The vampire froze however, as what looked back at her was not the usual brown orbs but- glowing purple ones.

"I'm okay.. I think. Why are you looking at me like that?"

  Watching as one of her eyes faded from purple to her normal eye color, the other eye still popped with color.

  "Airi- y-your eye-"

  Jinae walked the girl downstairs even tho she insisted she was alright. Pulling her in front of the others on the couch, they noticed her eye simultaneously.

  "Are you in any pain?" Byeol frowned, resting her hands on Airis shoulders. She then turned towards the knock on the door, informing that it was Bangchan.

  "Do you remember everything before you passed out?" He immediately question after taking note of her eye.

  Airi nodded. "I fainted from a head splitting pain when talking to Jinae. I do feel.. a bit strange."

  "I found something!" Minho jumped up from his seat, looking at Seungmins journal with wide eyes. "I'm not completely sure, however he has a few notes written here. This page is labeled 'The purple eyed twins'"

  "But Airi and Miyu aren't twins." Jinae stated matter-of-factly.

  "That's what I thought at first, but Seungmin even wrote that not many rumors have been proven to be true about them. Take a look."
