....Flower of Evil....

"

Alright, I'm here,as you wished", Iseul said from Robin's lips.

The building fell into an eerie silence. Iseul was strangely calm while Robin was scared out of her wits. But Robin didn't want to let Iseul feel her fear. She is supposed to protect Iseul.

Iseul slightly smiled feeling Robin's sincere feelings. So strange. The feeling is so warm.

Suddenly, infront of their eyes,a white light appeared out of nowhere and a portal was opened through the wall. Behind the portal,everything was blur as it was inside water or something.

Robin's curious eyes widened in excitement and fear. "Wicked"

"Ah", Iseul said simply looking at the portal. "So,they want to take me far away"

Robin,"....Iseul",....."Don't leave my body ..... no matter what. There is no safe place than my body", she was dead serious for the first time.

And realisation hit Iseul. Robin knows. Robin knows why she is so special. Her brothers gave Robin special treatments without a reason? No. They would never allow just anyone to hang out with Iseul.

Iseul,"You...know?"

Robin,"Yeah...I've always known since the day I started working with your brothers. Yoongi told me why I should stick with you"

Robin Smith,a rare holy beast in human form. Robin had never known about her true identity until she met Iseul's brother Yoongi. Robin's first life on the mortal realm,a holy beast in human form. By sticking to Iseul's side,she could purify Iseul's resentment in her soul. Her body is like a purification center. Her holy aura was purifying Iseul's soul. And the other specialty is,no unholy beast,demon,ghost can ever lay a hand on her without her will. Robin was living unaware of this matter and would have lived obliviously if she didn't meet Iseul.

And as long as Iseul stays inside Robin, nothing will happen to her soul.

Iseul also knew it seeing her holy aura. But she didn't want to put any burden on Robin's shoulders. But her bastard brothers are using every single thing and person to keep her safe.

Iseul heaved a breathy chuckle and took a step forward towards the portal. "Robin,...thank you",  and I'm sorry.

Iseul entered the portal and a blinding light made her close her eyes. Once they opened their eyes,they found themselves infront of a half ruined castle inside a forest. A river with crystal clear water was beside it flowing beautifully.

The castle was ruined except for the large walls and few pillars here and there.

Robin,"Is this —"

Iseul,"An auspicious land for dark creatures. This land is filled with a lot of demonic energy. I bet,this kingdom didn't last for 50 years since they created it. They should have picked a land with spiritual energy. Hah,those idiots must have been  desperate to create their own kingdom and fell to ruins"

"Oh,so when we pick a land to create a house,we should check for the energy?", Robin asked.

"Hmm,it is the right way. Unless they are holy like you,you can't avoid the bad luck that brings with the land. You'll be doomed"

Robin,"Haunted house cases?"

Iseul,"Possible"

"Wicked",Robin was amused.

Iseul looked at the sun in the sky. It seemed like they are not in Korea anymore. The place is somewhere far since it is the morning sun in the sky.

"So dense with demonic energy, how did they find here?", Iseul mumbled to herself.

"Ho ho,my dear, if you don't mind,let me answer you"

Iseul and Robin paused hearing the oh so familiar voice,though Robin was unfamiliar with the voice.

They turned back slowly.

Robin almost choked on her saliva seeing the handsome demon. Hot and sexy in her point of view.

His killer smile took Robin's breath away but she stiffened feeling a burning sensation in her heart. Iseul's raging feeling. Her feelings are too painful yet she is managing stay calm infront of this demon.

Robin's hands were clasped behind her back by Iseul's actions. Iseul maintained a poker face,so Robin didn't dare to butt in their conversation to give Iseul some face.

Nian placed a hand on a rocky pillar. "This place....has always been mine. This is where I stored my energy. So of course, it should be filled with demonic energy, right? Haha,but some idiots built a castle in here. And look what I did?! Isn't it beautiful? I sucked all of their lives and ruined them beautifully", he seemed so happy saying some horrible deed he did.

Robin was sick to her stomach seeing his maniac speech.

"But of course, not as beautiful as your kingdom Iseul. You ruined it perfectly better than me. In a sick manner. So serene"

"By the way,your vessel is beautiful. Smartly chosen. Hello there beauty", He addressed Robin and waved with a charming smile. Of course, he sees everything. 

"Oh my dude,you are sick,you know that?", Robin spoke.

Nian tilted his head and smiled widely. "I know right? You little holy beast,you are interesting"

Iseul,"Robin,keep quiet. From now on,you won't speak. Let me do the business"

Iseul sounded so dominant and powerful.

"Yes,mommy", Robin said teasingly and went quiet.

Iseul stopped herself from punching Robin since she'll only make a fool of herself infront of Nian.

"Where is Linghe?", Iseul asked going straight to the point.

"Oh,he is having a nice chat with his wife right now. Wanna see him?"

Iseul's lips twitched in irritation. Wife?

"You...You showed him his past memories?!",Iseul gritted her teeth.

"Nope. His wife didn't want him to see them yet"

Iseul heaved a sigh. She doubted if her other self wanted it either. The past memories will only torment him. It will put him in confusion and turmoil. It will hurt him.

But in order to make Iseul surrender to the Queen Iseul,will she go that far?

What matters now is Linghe's condition. He must be scared about everything happening around him and it made Iseul angry. She only wants him to be comfortable and happy,away from all these shits.

"Let him go. I came here ad you wished,that's all you want"

Nian stroked his cheek as he grinned. He had a very suspicious look on his face though he was wearing that stupid grin. "Will you really let me take me your soul just like this if I let him go?"

Robin couldn't really keep quiet. "Bastard,don't be delusional. We came here as you wanted us here. It's upto you to fight and take her away from me"

Iseul wanted to smack her good on the head. But what she said is right. "If you are trying to threaten me with him,then it's useless because I know my other self won't let you hurt him in anyway. I don't even have to lift a finger,she will destroy you if you ever lay a finger on him"

Nian's grin widened as he started laughing. His eyes shone in malice. Too bad,he had so much handsome features. It was like he was a creation of a mad scientist. Robin's type of man but he is a demon.

"My sweet little Iseul,you are right. I will let him go. But would it be okay with your other self? She seemed reluctant to let him go?"

Iseul smiled slightly. "I don't think so?"

Nian was taken back. Iseul looked so confident.

"I wondered why she let Beomgyu go this easily. It was too easy to find him too. And gyu was really willing to be a villain to be with her. So,why did she throw her away like this? I wouldn't have done it if I were her. I would want to keep a loyal dog to myself. Also,if I'm tired of a toy,I'd just destroy it rather than throwing away. I mean,if I were the Queen 800 years ago. So,I'm a little puzzled. Even you didn't hurt Beomgyu.....perhaps you were scared you'll fall into my other self's bad side if you hurt gyu?"

Nian breathed out a chuckle. "You figured it out?"

"Of course. And I know for sure that she is in confusion too. That's why she needs Linghe to confirm her feelings"

"Right, that foolish feeling of love,it had again come back to her"

Iseul smiled,"Well,then I'm guessing you must be planning to destroy his soul and put the blame on my brothers,wasn't that your old routing? To increase her resentment?"

Nian's smile died down for the first time.

"Stop spouting nonsense"

Everyone looked at their side to see the Queen Iseul walking towards them with Linghe by her side. She was wearing a long black gown with so many accessories around her.

Iseul looked at Linghe who was walking towards them with a frown. She wanted to run to him and take him to her side by she couldn't be reckless and careless. When her worried eyes met his,he widened his eyes.

"Aren't you...Robin? Danbi's friend?",..."IS DANBI HERE?! IS SHE ALRIGHT?!"

Iseul's heart skipped a beat. He hasn't changed. Meaning, he hasn't seen any memory yet.

Robin,"Uh yeah. What are you doing here mate? This is not a good place for a vacation tho"

Robin was trying to fool him.

Iseul,"....."

"I was — I don't know! I was suddenly woken up here by this lady next to me! What is happening?! Why am I here? Who brought me here?!"

Iseul sighed. "Let him go now"

Though Iseul spoke,it was obvious seen as Robin speaking.

"Am I being held hostage here?", Linghe asked."Robin,where is Danbi?!"

Nian giggled as it was too hilarious for him. "Man,Iseul,don't you think you should tell him the truth? It was such a waste of time to bring him here? Why don't we threaten our little Iseul with him?"

Queen Iseul glared at him immediately.

Before she could say anything, Linghe was tied up in a spiritual binding and was slammed onto a pillar.

Both Iseuls widened their eyes.

"NO!",Robin(Iseul) immediately ran towards him but was binded by a spiritual bindings as well by Nian. Robin fell onto the ground helplessly.

Queen Iseul gritted her teeth as she sent a murderous glare to Nian. "What the hell do you think you are doing?!"

"I'm just making things easy for you. No need to get all defensive over me"

"Let.him.go", Queen Iseul deadpanned as her eyes turned bright red.

"You know Iseul,I'm not scared of you. I can take you down immediately. But we are bounded. So we depend on each other. So,I appreciate if you listen to me once in a while and let me do the things on my way. Now,don't be a stubborn girl"

Queen Iseul scoffed and turned to Linghe to remove the spiritual bindings. Of course, she wouldn't listen to Nian. No matter what,she would never threan her other self with Linghe.

But just as she was about to remove it,a sharp pain shot upon from her chest. With wide eyes,she fell on her knees.

Robin and Iseul watched the scene with horror. What was happening?

Nian's eyes shone in red as he grinned looking at Queen Iseul who was suddenly coughing blood.

"I'm so sorry my dear,I never thought I'd have to use this against you but you make it difficult for me"

Queen Iseul wide eyes stared at ground. Suddenly she stood up and turned to Nian. Her eyes had turned completely black!

Nian is controlling her!
