Jungkook’s heart pounded in his chest as he flickered between the heavens and earth, wings aching but his desperation driving him forward. He landed back at the castle, breath ragged, only for his world to stop dead in its tracks. Jin wasn’t there.
His heart dropped into a void of dread.
Where is he?
His body trembled, his wings twitching in panic. He had no time to think—only act. Without hesitation, Jungkook vanished, reappearing at Jin’s home in seconds. But the moment he arrived, a wave of heat hit him like a physical blow. His eyes widened, and his breath caught in his throat.
The house was engulfed in flames.
Not just any flames. The sickly orange hue, the unnatural heat—it was unmistakable.
Hellfire.
Jungkook nearly cursed aloud. Hellfire on earth? He knew what this meant. He had broken so many rules already...what was one more? But this—this wasn’t about him anymore. This was Dong Wook's doing. A punishment far worse than anything Jungkook had imagined. His hands trembled as he scanned the scene, his heart racing, desperate to find Jin.
"Jin... Jin!" Jungkook called out, voice hoarse with panic. His gaze flicked frantically through the thick smoke and roaring fire. Where is he? His mind screamed at him. But there was no trace of him—no sign of life.
Until his eyes landed on a figure inside the house, motionless, surrounded by flames. Mrs. Kim.
Jungkook's heart sank. No...
"NOOOOOO!" The scream tore from his throat as he lunged forward, desperate to stop the hellfire from consuming her, from consuming everything. But it was too late. The fire wasn’t normal—it was from the depths of hell itself. His powers...they couldn’t fight this.
The flames flickered in mocking defiance as they consumed everything around him, leaving Jungkook standing powerless in front of the destruction.
His mind raced. He had to do something. He had to stop this—had to find Jin.
But with every second that passed, the dread only grew deeper.
Where is Jin?
Jungkook felt like his mind was unraveling. Where is Jin? The words screamed through his thoughts, over and over, as his panic swelled. He gripped his hair, pulling at it in a desperate attempt to calm himself. No, I can’t break down...not now... He had to be strong, for Jin’s sake.
But the fear, the helplessness—it was overwhelming.
Suddenly, two figures appeared beside him, their presence jolting him back to reality. Jimin and Jhope, his fellow angels, stood before him, their faces tense with worry.
"Jungkook!" Jimin’s voice cut through the chaos, urgency thick in his tone. "You have to hurry. It’s not the angels... It’s the hell lord, Hyo-seop. He’s the one after Jin."
Jungkook’s blood ran cold at the mention of that name. Of course, he remembered Hyo-seop—his sworn enemy, the one who had always resented him. Hyo-seop, once a fellow angel, had fallen from grace and now ruled over the darkest depths of hell. His hatred for Jungkook had been festering for centuries, and now he had found the perfect way to exact his revenge.
"He’s taken Jin!" Jimin’s words felt like a dagger in his chest.
Jungkook’s eyes widened, his pulse quickening.
"Hyo-seop plans to torture him. Heaven wouldn’t harm a human like this—but Hyo-seop would. He’s using Jin to hurt you, to get back at you." Jhope’s voice was steady but laced with urgency. "I overheard his demons talking. They’re at the Heaven-Hell Hill."
