•Chapter 18•

          His sister was in-front of him. Byeol, his precious gem. Jimin stepped forward but she backed away, "Byeol," he softly breathed out, "I'm sorry for leaving you."

   Byeol tilted her head, tears started coming out of her eyes. Jimin's eyes started crystallizing, "don't cry, please." He stepped forward again, slowly trying to touch her. But he pulled back his hand instantly as those tears started turning into tears of blood. He gasped, covering his mouth as terror beheld his eyes. "Byeol."

    She smiled as blood rivers flooded out of her eyes, "you left me to die. You abandoned me." She said.

  Jimin shook his head, "I'm so sorry, I'm the worst." He ran to hug her but she pushed him roughly, her head turning to the other direction, he heard cracks as she harmed herself.

"Please, stop." He breathed out trying to stop her but she screamed in a high pitch tone making him kneel down and start sobbing on the floor.

  "You don't care about me. I feel neglected."

   Her spine cracked making Jimin yell, closing his eyes and weeping on the floor, "don't hurt yourself, please."

     Her legs cracked, blood coated his legs and hands, he trembled as he slowly looked up at her, and the only thing that was left on her face was a smile, that was turning into a frown. "You... abandoned... me."

    Jimin started screaming, "stop no, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Repeating that over and over again, he felt his heart being ripped out as he saw the fresh red blood, eyes burning because of the tears and his body weakening while he started yelling, "I'm sorry."

    He gasped, flinching awake as he saw Jungkook trying to wake him up, eyes fully of worry. "Breathe," he said, gently making him rise to sit up.

   Jimin looked around, "Byeol-"

   "A nightmare, it was a nightmare." Jungkook caressed his hair softly, a water bottle came flying to him open, Jimin gulped down the water. "Do you want to talk about it?"

    Jimin looked at him. Nolland wanted Jimin to forget about Byeol and not speak her name rather than discussing it with him, that question made Jimin slowly nod.

  The bottle was placed on the floor, Jungkook sat in-front of him on the bed as he waited for Jimin to start talking.

   "Before we do, how did you know that I was having a nightmare?" He asked the high lord.

   "The pact," he replied quickly, "I've been hearing you scream in my head at night for a month now. That's how I can tell it's a nightmare."

     The blonde boy parted his lips, he slowly leaned in closer. Jungkook was frozen as a rock, he didn't know if he also held his breath in. He watched Jimin get close to him, and he felt a pat on his head, he smiled softly at the blonde boy and heard him say, "I'm sorry you had to go through this with me." He felt guilty.

   He leaned away and sat normally, Jungkook just gazed at Jimin, "and thanks." Jimin added. Jungkook rose a brow, "for saving me last time, and waking me up tonight."

   Jungkook scoffed, "You didn't get just a hero, you got a handsome and charming one too. You are so lucky." He winked giving Jimin an attractive smile.

   "I take it back." Jimin said with a bothered tone, but he was still thankful. Thankful that the Fae made jokes when he needed them the most.

   Jungkook let out a cold giggle, "Park Jimin, I'll make you admit it one day." He swore on his life.

   Jimin sighed in sadness, "the nightmare," Jungkook's smile died out, he was all serious now, ready to listen to him. "Byeol was dying, telling me that I abandoned her which I did, and I feel so sorry." He explained even more in details.
