Chap. 56

After a few hours blacked out, I think, I tried to pry my eyes out. The burning on my wrists was what woke me up completely when I tried to move my hands, which I assumed was tied behind my back.

The more I move them, the more pain I felt tugging deep into my skin, causing me to whimper. I look around, and see only darkness surrounding me.

I try to focus on whatever is something that looks visible in the naked eyes. As I try to see everything, I could see a silhouette sitting in the corner of the room. I narrow my eyes to see it clearly. But I couldn't.

Then, a voice booms out.

"Wakey wakey, sugar. Have enough beauty rest?"

I don't need to see who it was in this room with me. His voice is the one thing that I need to hear to know him.

His shadow steps closer to me and even though it was dark, his scent filling up my nose and I know he was getting closer.

I close my eyes to feel him.

His hand gently trace on my cheek to my chin.

"What was so special about you until he couldn't do it himself? You are just a mere weapon for him to get strong enough to tore down the Kingdom apart"

It sounds like he was sitting down beside me.

"To him, you are special because of the power that was lying underneath you, waiting to be unleash by someone who is worthy"

I open my eyes when mentioned about the powers. I turned to look at him, although I couldn't see anything.

"A bit lost?"

"What powers? What are you talking about? And where's Kris?"

He let out a sickening laugh that turned my stomach into twist. That laugh was definitely not in my favorite list to hear.

"Woah, slow down with the Qs there, girl. Don't worry. I'm just helping him doing it"

The darkness still blinding my vision to see what he is up to, but before I could calculate what he is gonna do, my braided hair was moved to the side of my shoulder and could feel his hand trailing the lines on my back.

The heartbeat within my chest began to rise quickly than I could handle. Helping him doing what? Are they gonna kill me? No, I wouldn't let that happen.

I begin to squirm in my seat and trying to free my hands from the ropes, but the more I wiggle my wrist, the burning sensation starting to biting my skin really hard.

He grip my neck in a deadly way that I can expect from him and drew himself closer until I can smell his scent.

"Trying to escape now? You should do that the minute you arrive in this hellhole"

The moment he let go of my neck, he touch my back and something sharp pointed the side of my back. A sharp pain exploded through my back, letting my scream escape filling the room. He was as if taking a knife and plunge it deeper and trail them longer than I expected and stop in midway.

The pain was excruciating, travelling to every single part in my veins. I blink away the tears that was starting to form in my eyes. The blood was trailing down on my back, dripping to the floor.

"Not to worry, my dear. This one will not hurt a bit" he said.

The shirt I was wearing already drenched in my blood, so he tore the back of my shirt apart and the knife was pointed on the other side of my back, basically just beside where he carved the knife.

"Fuck you" I spit out in pain.

He chuckled hearing me swear.

"Not too innocent here, I suppose? My my, you are something"

Not long after he said that, he plunge it again and pull it down, making the agony spread widely into my body. I no longer could hold my tears as I let them flowing freely from my cheeks. My body was shaking due to the pain that was raging inside and my breathe was ragged.

I bit my lips and don't care about the blood that began to surface when Tao pulls out the knife and letting the blood flowing out.

I shut my eyes tightly, so that I can focus to something else other than the pain.

"Tsk tsk tsk. Don't cry. You will feel your power soon enough" he said.

"What powers!? I don't have one and I'm not like you!" I yelled out in pain.

"I don't like interruption, ____. One more question out of you, you will not seeing Minho nor Kris again" he threatened.

Then, he touch the wounds on my back, causing me to whimper in pain. He then puts something in the wounds and pushed them further until I felt like I couldn't breath anymore.

The air was stuck in my lungs and I try my hardest to suck in oxygen. A new sensation begin to spread in every corner of my body, my eyes flashing with every memories that I had in my life before.

It was unbearable, but I can control it. The pain was no longer there, replaced by a soothing sensation that I never experience and, I might say I like it.

I blink my eyes few times. The ropes behind me was loose and I wiggle my hands and rub the wrists gently. Tao was clapping and afterwards, the room was filled with lights and I notice there is no doors or windows in the room.

I look around to see Tao standing beside me with a huge smile on his face. He offered me his hand and I took it with cautious, he pulled me so I was on my feet. But the weight behind me was unfamiliar and it was pulling me behind so I turn my head to see what it was.

I couldn't believe it.

"Surprise! Thought it would be bigger than you, but it fits you perfectly! Now, how about we give a try to those newly wings of yours, huh?"

Kris's POV;

I groaned and kicked the door open just to see no one is inside. I clenched my jaw and fist, knowing that brat already took her to somewhere else in the house.

I huffed and puffed and pace in her room, trying to figure out where he could possibly took her.

But then, suddenly I grunt and clutched my chest. Something is burning inside of me than I could comprehend it. I bend down, one hand on the floor to keep myself from falling, but it was beginning to spread like wildfire that I roll on the floor.

My wings spread out and stretched. They were getting bigger and stronger. That was when I realize something happened.

"He did it"
