Demon // EXO

Chapter 19

"Yixing!"

He turned and spotted his other brothers, sighing in relief, he looked at their confused expressions as they were all in the centre of Purgatory.

"Have you found anything?" Jongin asked, the half angel pursed his lips as he pointed towards a box in the centre of the large empty room they were all stood in.

"Isla isn't here." Yixing clarified, feeling nervous for once in his life.

"Have they taken her to another circle?" Baekhyun questioned as Minseok and Chanyeol moved forward to inspect the suspicious green box.

"No. She isn't here. She isn't in Hell."

Everybody froze, even heavier confusion painted on their faces. Yixing sighed, pointing to the box again and looking at Minseok.

"Open it."

The older brother did so, and they watched the projection that shot from the box and onto the far wall.

"Does that make you angry Isla?" Taehyung was grinning at the human girl they'd all been searching for, however she wasn't as they expected.

She growled, once hazel irises turning a pale shade of white as she pounced for the demon, her teeth on display as if she attempted to rip his throat out.

Taehyung laughed, spinning away from her as suddenly her speed increased, the demonic anger on her face growing with every swipe she took at Taehyung.

"Isla..." Jongin whispered under his breath, Yixing had his head turned, refusing to watch the tape again.

"I guess violence is your undoing, little mortal." Taehyung suddenly moved quicker than light, grabbing Isla by her throat.

She hissed in his face, but remained still as he looked down at her with his large hand keeping her head still.

"My circle of Hell is the one that broke you, little girl," Taehyung whispered in her ear, leaning as close to it as he possibly could, her animalistic eyes side eyeing him. "You belong to me now."

She sagged slightly in his grip as his other hand came round to grab her waist. Her eyes were slowing closing as she leaned into him, her head rolling.

"Let's pay your homeland a visit." He muttered as her lifted her up in his arms, turning to the side as if he could see his demonic brothers watching this in the future.

His grin made Yixing's feral side open an eye.

The projection cut off.

"She's at Earth? But under Taehyung's influence-" Chanyeol spoke rapidly, eyes slightly wider than usual as he turned to the other's.

"She'll go on a violent spree." Baekhyun finished for him.

"This really isn't good." Jongin mumbled, staring into the distance.

"We can't go to Earth without Satan's blessing." Minseok grumbled, surprising himself as to why he was so bothered about her absence.

"If he finds out we've let this happen..." Jongin's breath hitched, grimacing slightly. "We need to find another way to get her back."

"I know somebody," Baekhyun spiked up, watching Yixing carefully, whose being radiated a certain type of chaos only he could emit.

Chanyeol's eyes widened even more. "Mino."

"Please! I have a family- I have kids, I have a wife-"

"Shut up," I hissed at the pathetic human who was cowering in the corner of the alleyway, his forehead covered in blood from when I smashed it against a glass window.

His body shook with silent sobs as I neared my steps, licking my lips, thirsty for blood. I tightened my grip on the twin daggers in my hands, nearly trembling with the urge to feel this weakling's warm blood coating my fingers.

"Who are you- what are you?" He whispered between sobs.

Bending at his level, I grinning wickedly. "Your worst nightmare."

He screamed as both of my blades shot into his soft stomach, piercing the skin so easily. Blood was already costing his lips as his wide eyes stared at me in silent horror and pain, I grit my teeth as I slowly twisted the daggers, feeling his insides accommodating the sharp weapons. "Once I'm done with you, I'm going to your house. I'll kill your beautiful wife, and then I'll kill your children whilst they scream in pain."

His eyes widened more, choking on his own fresh blood.

"I'll slit your wife's throat in front of your kids, and then I'll-"

A force so strong it caught me completely off guard shoved me to the side, bashing against the alleyway wall, my shoulder screamed in pain as I felt a crack.

"That's enough." A deep voice ordered, one I didn't at all recognise. I turned my head, gripping my shoulder as I tried to stand, looking for the source of the voice.

There was a man- no not a man, a demon, stood over the guy I was enjoying myself on. He looked at him, the human was now dead, blood leaking from his stomach and mouth, feeding into my hunger.

"Who the fuck are you?" I growled, pulling myself into a stand as I looked over at the demon who's mortal looking eyes turned towards me.

"Stronger than you," he scoffed, looking her up and down, as if unimpressed. "Baekhyun filled me in. Seems that my dear brother Taehyung has you in his thrall."

Baekhyun.

That name sent a pulse of familiarity through me, and I froze.

But a gentle voice in my head reminded me to not trust others, to only rely on my master, Taehyung.

Growling softly, I glared at the demon, nose crinkling in distaste.

He raised his eyebrows, "oh, you want to fight, Princess? Bring it on."
