VIXX'S VOODOO DOLL

Chapter 10

After they eat dinner, the boys are talking in soft Korean in the car. May feels extreme frustration, she could only understand a few words and when she asked Ken, he responded with, "Work." What a lie. She gives up and falls asleep on his shoulder.

"Are you sure it was her?" Ken asks, ignoring May's tapping on his arm.

"Positive," Hyuk answers, "She clearly knew who I was, I felt her eerie presence. But, May seemed to know her too. When I walked in, they were hugging. May even knew her name, Camille."

"That's not her real name," Ravi comments, "She doesn't use her real name just as we don't use ours. She's the one who taught us, names have power."

"If her false name is Camille, and she seemed familiar with May, could May have a false name too?" Hongbin asks.

"It's possible," N answers, "Which reminds me Ravi, I owe you an apology."

Ravi looks confused, "For what?"

"You were right, she does have scars on her back," N answers, "They were cleanly cut, they looked fresh. But when I touched them, there seemed to be an extra bone that had been cut off, it was ridged."

"She told me most of the time she sleeps on her stomach because her back hurts," Ken offers.

"They disappear when she's awake," N continues, "I watched them fade."

"So she could be half angel?" Leo clarifies, "Angels have golden eyes and wings. Her eyes turn gold..."

"And black." Hongbin finishes, "So while it's not for sure, we know that she could very likely be part angel, but also part demon."

"Yes."

They pull into the driveway and all of them get out, Ken picks up May because of something she had expressed to him earlier.

"You slept with him last night," Ken comments when they are alone.

She sighs and explains, "He feels good to be around. I don't hate him, I don't think I can since he 'Claimed' me. I don't like it when he touches me, but when I'm next to him... I don't know how to describe the way it feels. It makes me feel amazing and refreshed. I like it."

"So you don't like it when he touches you but you like you're around him?"

She nods and is called back to the photoshoot.

He carries her up to N's room and carefully weaves around all the scattered clothes and lays her on the bed. She whimpers and twists onto her stomach. He takes off her shoes and goes over to N's dresser, taking a silver box off of it and removing a doll from the drawer. He walks over to the door and looks at her one last time before closing the door.
