Chapter 17 -- Food

Monsters: The Mousetrap

Hana sighed at Hyosung, “Can I stay in his cell?” She asked her. And Hyosung gave her a look of disbelief, opened but no words came out.

“Isn’t it better if I stay with the monster? I’m the only one who has a chance of escape and your monster can help prevent that.” Hana reasoned, she just wanted another chance to talk to him. But she had to convince Hyosung to do so.

Her lips pursed together as she frowned a bit unhappily. The girl had a point if she stayed with Kiki then there was no way she could escape. But a girl staying with Kiki… Hyosung wasn’t sure how she felt about that. He had yet to turn back to normal because of her, and she had tried to kiss him numerous times and it never worked.

“Fine. Just don’t show affection towards him.” Hyosung said finally as she left Hana behind and went out back to the city.

Hana approached him and she sat down on a hay bale in front of him. He held his hand out to her and climbed onto it easily. He brought her closer to him and she could feel that his body was warm. She moved closer, this whole time she didn’t even realize her body was cold.

“I’m guessing your body is warm because of the fire?” She asked out loud, her head bent down. He grunted in response and she took that as a yes. She cozied up to him and she somehow managed to fall asleep.

He looked down at her sleeping body and saw how fragile she was. He wanted to tell her that he didn’t mean to do it. That he didn’t do anything wrong, he did what he was told. And the magic did the rest but he couldn’t.

Not when Hyosung was around and could kill her at any second for knowing too much. He also needed to figure out a way to get rid of the spell anyway and he needed this girl for that. She felt her light breathing, he knew she had relaxed in presence. Which was different.

He had always expected the girls to tense up in fear or cower away from him whenever he walked past their stalls but she was different. But maybe she was also really tired. He wondered what Hyosung had meant about not showing affection towards him. 

Hyosung knew how the spell would end, he knew she did. But she would never tell him. He sighed to himself, he wouldn’t have been in this situation if it wasn’t for his principles. But there was no time for him to regret now. 

He knew that Hyosung would be gone for a long time, whenever she had press interviews and outings to purposefully get spotted by the paparazzi, she would be gone for days. Then come back, demanding him to find another girl to steal.

He had time to get Hana food, real food. He felt bad that the other girls could only eat jello, but they had no teeth, what was he supposed to do? He arranged a bed from the hay bales in his cell and set Hana down on it. He went out into the throne room to find some food, he knew Hyosung kept some junk food down here.

That girl liked to eat junk food right after she stole a girl’s youth because it made her feel even more proud of herself for looking so young.

He stepped on a random tile in the room and a refrigerator popped out from behind a wall. He smirked to himself as he found exactly what he was looking for. Instant noodles, eggs and a pot. He had attempted to make this before in the past when Hyosung demanded it. But he never made it to her liking so she stopped asking him to do it.

He set the pot in the fireplace Hyosung had made for herself and set a small fire, he was capable enough for that at least. He dumped bottled water that he found in the fridge and waited for it to boil. He ripped the package open and dumped everything inside as well. 

When it was half boiled, he used a fork to crack the egg open cleanly and put that inside as well. He started the pot with the fork and waited until everything was cooked. He saw girls’ heads peek out to look at him, he ignored all of them.

He could tell that everything was cooked and he took the pot of the fire, it was hot but nothing he couldn’t handle. He was used to being burned and he carried it back to his cell. She was still sleeping on the hay bales so he set it to the side and waited.

He knew the smell would awaken her and within seconds, it did. He heard her stomach growl before her eyes opened. She was hazy but she sat up and saw the food right away. “You did this for me?” She asked him as she approached it. The fork was already waiting for her.

He grunted and she turned to him so he nodded, she turned back to the food and reached for the fork which had been sitting in the pot. He made a noise to stop her and she turned to him again. He took the fork in his hand and scooped up some of the food and held it up for her.

She shook her head, “You don’t have to do this. I can do it myself.” She told him.

He gave her look and gestured the food towards her again. She sighed and blew on it before opening . She took a bite and swallowed, now she knew why he wanted to feed her. She felt her tongue get a little burned from the food.

He made another noise again and she swore it sounded like slowly or it’s hot, one of the two. She nodded, “I know. It’s hot. I need to wait a little bit.” She told him.

He grunted in agreement and set the fork down. He opened his hand to her again and she climbed into it. He sat down in front of the food and held her there.

They waited until the food cooled down before he started feeding her again. She muttered, “You really don’t have to do this.” She was grateful that he brought her food, but she didn’t want Hyosung to come back.

She wasn’t sure if this classified as showing affection or not. 

He grunted out a longer sentence and she got the gist of it and sighed, “Fine. Just don’t get us in trouble.” She said.

Kiki smiled on the inside, she was worried about them getting in trouble too. That made his entire world right, as long as she cared. He knew exactly what he needed to do.

“Can we talk after?” She asked him.

He nodded and she felt the shakes in his body without needing to turn around.

“Great."

Chapter 27: I've really enjoyed reading this story and the mystery has kept me on my toes since I first subscribed! ^-^ You're a great story-teller, with your subtle hints sprinkled throughout the chapters. It's been a rollercoaster of a ride, trying to figure out all (or at least most, haha) of the secrets in this story. Ki Kwang is such a sweetheart and I'm so glad he's got a happy ending now! x] Kudos to you for a great job and I'm excited to read the next installment with Nichkhun! :)
