the undoing

chapter 5 ༉

Patience. It's what Lisa needs, just a little bit more and she'll get out of this mess.

Silently wishing that everything in this was just a nightmare she could wake up from, but unfortunately, it wasn't. Being babysat around everywhere she tried to go around the palace was not fun.

"Hey... do you think the angel being kept in here will actually marry Jungkook?" A random demon has spoke and Lisa eavesdropped, what?

"It's everywhere around the kingdom now, idiot. I heard her parents gave her away so easily, it's saddening to say the least, I feel bad for her." The person with the woman responded.

Lisa cursed. No, her parents would never give her out, they'll find her, they will.

"Are you alright?" A voice called out to the angel who was deep in thought, Lisa turned around and revealed Jennie, who's arms were crossed on her chest, but her expression resembled a worried one.

"I'm.... okay, I-I just need to adjust." She stuttered.

Jennie sighed, "I know you're wondering why your parents aren't doing anything about the state or position you are in, Princess."

"Do you know anything?" She asked out of curiosity, Jennie gave an doubtful look.

"I'm not supposed to be saying anything, I'm sorry. In order for you to have answers, you may want to ask Jungkook for that."   Jennie adviced and Lisa looked down.

Hell, she wants to just fly away.

"You'll be at dinner tonight, right?" Jennie spoke once again and Lisa looked at her in confusion, "uh, dinner?"

"Yeah, all the high positions in this realm will all be in one big table, you coming?" The brunette gave the angel a sincere look, and Lisa smiled. "Heh, I'd be glad to go."

-

"Okay so, since you are the prettiest woman around, picking something to wear for dinner won't be that difficult, am I correct?" Jennie says while searching for clothes.

"I don't think it's necessary for you to give me an attire too formal and fancy, even I don't wear such clothes to dinner back in the Angel Realm." Lisa pursed her lips.

Jennie chuckles, "well... it's a formal dinner so what can we do about it, Princess?"

"You guys have dinners like this often?" The angel asked out of curiosity, and Jennie chuckled.

"Ha... I'd laugh, we usually have lazy dinners and that's it, we mind our own business, sometimes we have conversations in the middle of it." She gave a smile and Lisa returned one with a nod.

The angel fidgets with her fingers.

"Has Jungkook been treating you well?" Jennie broke the awkward atmosphere.

Lisa shrugged, "he's kind of cocky and arrogant... so I don't know."

"That's just his personality, you'll get used to it hopefully, we got it all through since we did live with him since he crawled." Jennie explained.

Lisa had so many questions that needed to be answered, but it felt like it was too much.

"You seem like an independent woman, Jennie."

The brunette chuckled at this, "what makes you think that, Angel? I have a lot of traits that don't define independent."

"I don't know, you seem really different from all of the other demons here... my guts are telling me something." Lisa trailed, and Jennie raised an eyebrow.

"Hmm... if you say so, get dressed now, I need to leave, Jungkook's probably gonna check on you any second by now and ask me to get out." Jennie walked toward the door and Lisa gave her a confused, puzzled look, but she didn't turn back.

There was no explanation, and she's left hanging, again.

There wasn't really anything good to look at inside the room she was in, but as she spotted the ancient picture in the corner, her eyes squinted.

The war between good and evil.

It said to be the most cruel and crucial fight of all time, the events that occurred during the situation was chill and cold, the kingdoms that once had peace and order, and had each other had turned into enemies up to present.

Lisa looked down. It was always this beautiful between the two realms... only the one historical tragedy changed everything, forever.

Her head was pounding at the thought of everything...

-

"A royal dinner, huh?" The king in the angel realm spoke, the queen just beside him, Lisa's parents.

"If I'm not mistaken, that's the message delivered to us by one of the demons." Chaeyoung responded with ease.

"Is she even being treated right in there?" She spoke once again, and the Queen stood up.

"Ofcourse she is, my dear. I don't think the Devil himself would break such an important deal."

Chaeyoung wanted to rolled her eyes there, and curse at them, why would they do this to their daughter? Power?

"We will crash the party then." The king spoke and Chanyeol raised an eyebrow at this.

"Your majesty, with all due respect, I am going to have to deny that, it's going to be a dangerous way of trying to-"

"I didn't ask for your opinion, Chanyeol."

"I apologize."

"You two, get dressed, we're going to meet at the frontier, and perhaps we will get to see how our princess is doing." The Queen spoke and Chaeyoung gave out an uneasy expression.

Chaeyoung paced back and forth.

"I don't like the sound of this, I don't want to know, oh my God, we need to stop them, they're out of their minds! A simple deal that's broken can cause Hell!"

"I understand you're worried and I am too, but we have no choice, either we're just gonna stand there and give Lisa an apologetic look, or-"

The woman cut him off, "or just create chaos, ofcourse! I don't like this one bit, I'd rather die at this point, I swear to God."

"Everything's gonna be fine." He reassures her, he hoped.
