Devination |hongbin [completed]

16. Hongbin [pov]

I had no idea what they had done to her. I could see her moving, but her eyes were lifeless. It was as if she was a zombie, and the smile that spread across Hakyeon's face made me want to punch his teeth in. I deadpanned as I watched his guards pull the old woman out of the room, her eyes locked with mine. I knew this was forced upon her, but the situation made me hate her too. I hated all of them.

"Lock her in the tower" Hakyeon called after the men and slammed the door closed, not paying any attention to me. He loved doing this. Since the damn day I was put in here, he treated me differently from the others. He wanted to hurt me, and I couldn't understand why, after all we had been through.

"When are you going to realize that keeping people hostage doesn't mean you have friends" I muttered, finally gaining his attention as he sauntered over to me.

"What did you say ?" he said, raising his eyebrow.

"All those years ago, when I prevented you from getting bullied by everyone, this is the thanks I get ?"

Hakyeon let out a chuckle and pulled a chair in front of me, cocking his head to the side, "you prevented it? you saved me?" he questioned. "From what I can remember is that a lonely 16 year old boy was bullied by a group of his peers and almost left for dead in the middle of a damn forest."

I bit down on my lip remembering the distant memory of that night. Hakyeon was the weird kid that used to draw pictures of my then girlfriend. It bothered me a few times but I knew he was harmless until one weekend our class group went on a camp trip. Hakyeon obviously lingered around my girlfriend and she asked him about his drawings and his passion for fashion design, something they both had an interest in. Eventually it was night fall and I couldn't find the two of them anywhere, so I began searching. I finally stumbled on the two of them making out and in that moment I hated that I defended him so much and approached them. Soon enough Ravi, Hyuk, Leo and Ken joined me and I let them know what happened. I knew Ravi hated Hakyeon, and this was the first time I allowed him to do whatever he wanted to him.

I watched as Ravi grabbed Hakyeon by his collar and pull him into the dark woods and shove him into the freezing lake. I bawled my fists as I watched him gasp for air, knowing this was wrong but I was furious. We didnt see or hear of Hakyeon until a few years later where his name was heard all over the place and people praised his designs. But I always remembered that day and regretted it until right now.

"What did you do to her" I spat, looking over his figure where (y/n) stood peacefully.

"I just turned the curse up a notch" Hakyeon replied, "now she's loyal, just the way I want her to be."

I watched as Hakyeon gestured for (y/n) to come over, and she responded immediately by standing his side. Every ounce of me wanted to hurt him. I felt the burn against my wrists as I tried to break free from the rope.

"Now look how well trained she is Hongbin" He exclaimed as he brought her down onto his lap and caressed the exposed skin on her lower back.

I couldnt stand to see him touch her now more than ever. She didn't seem to have a clue about anything right now and I felt as though I had lost her for good. All the memories we had shared were now only left with me.

"Well, its getting quite late and I need this place cleaned up as soon as possible so I should get going" Hakyeon sighed and ran his fingers over (y/n)'s cheek. "A goodnight kiss my dear?"

"Yes master" she responded, and my heart jolted at the sound of her voice. But that excitement quickly turned to dismay when she pulled him into a kiss and I had to watch the entire thing. His hands ran shamelessly all over her as her lips moved with his, the whole ordeal made me want to throw up.

Hakyeon helped her to her feet and whispered into her ear as he bid the both of us farewell and made his way to the exit. I swallowed hard as she slowly walked around me and tugged at the restraints around my wrists, and undid the knot. As soon as I was free, she took a step back and looked at me, well more like looked through me.

"(y/n)" I called nearing her, "Jagi its me, Hongbin." I took her hand in mine, surprised by the ice cold feeling of her normally warm skin and held it up to my chest. "(y/n) do you know who I am ?" I asked, but she remained silent.

I slumped my shoulders as she released her hand from my grip and turn away from me, and returned to her display. She still looked absolutely beautiful in that display, even though it was now destroyed, but she was not my (y/n). She didnt turn back to stick out her tongue at me, or tease me about something. She didnt bite down on her lip as she watched the sun begin to rise, nervous about turning into a mannequin again.

"I shall obey all master's commands" she mumbled, stepping into position as I returned to mine.

Last of all she didnt tell me she loved me before we returned to our sleep. It was something she did because she was afraid of what could happen next. She was always afraid.

"I love you too (y/n)" I whispered, and my body fell into its sleep.
