The Dark Palace

Bom POV

Where am I? I tried to move and open my eyes but it was too dark in the room. Am I laying in my bed? I couldn’t see anything.

“Who is she?? She doesn’t smell like a human nor like a demon.” I heard someone.

“She woke up!” I heard someone’s high pitched voice and whispers. When I looked around again they lit up the room and I found three girls dressed in red dresses. How could they see me if they eyes were covered? What caught my attention were long earrings with small, red rubies in their ears.

“She’s ready!” one of them said and harshly helped me to sit on the bed.

I opened my mouth and wanted to say that it hurt but words got stuck in my throat. What the hell?! I grabbed my neck and all three of them laughed at my miserable face. My fingers landed on the necklace with big stones.

“Stand up and let me look at you.” One ordered and pulled my hand. My legs were bare and I was wearing some kind of a swimsuit?

“Those tattoos means something big?” another asked.

“I don’t know but she beautiful… “ the shortest said and lead me to the huge mirror.

This is not me, the hair, makeup… I’m almost !

“Let’s show her to our master.”

Luhan POV

She’s gone… and I can’t even move...

ChonYo stopped right in front of me.

“If I kill you and Lay right now my sons will be the heirs of the sky god clan.” She said and grabbed my chin.

Father will never let that happen! He’ll know about you and the fire clan! I’m not afraid of you… As if she could hear me “You should be.” she said angrily “Your father?” she started laughing.

“After all the poison I gave him I don’t think he can think straight anymore” she smirked.

What?! I felt my body swelling up and trembling. I’m transforming! The look in her eyes changed instantly into a scared one. I feel on my knees and she started moving back. Silver scales appeared on  my hands and began to spread higher on my arms. Slowly my strength an ability to move freely started coming back.

“Run or I’m going to kill you!” I said as her black magic left my body. She’s so weak... a roar came out of my throat while Lay and others kept standing like statues around us.

In panic she pulled out a dagger and screamed while trying to stab me.

“I wouldn’t do that.” I heard suddenly. I t was Xiumin who with the speed of light poured bucket of water on her and froze it. She wasn’t able to move even an inch. Her dagger feel on the ground.

“Xiumin…. I’m changing!!” I screamed in desperation. He tried running  to me whit his broken leg and grabbed my hands. My nails already changed into long clutches.

“Think about Bom! … and everyone precious to you! There’s no time for you to lose control now! Whenever I’m not around you always get in trouble!” he yelled frustrated at me.

I couldn’t help but laugh and it made me calm a little bit. Thinking about Bom did the rest. Even though it took a while I came back to normal.

“What about her?” Xiumin asked and pointed at my stepmother.

“Take back your spell!” I shouted, grabbed the dagger and put it next to her neck.

“You wouldn’t dare!” she smirked.

“Oh really?” I pressed the blade harder and first blood drops showed.

“Luhan, she’s not worth it!” Xiumin said and grabbed the black sack she had tied to her wrist. “That’s it!” he smiled and strewn the green sand that was inside of it.

“No!!” she screamed and desperately tried to liberate from the ice.

After a while Lay, Chanyeol, Minzy, Suho, CL and her guardians woke up. CL started crying… She just reunited with her brother and lost him again…

“Lay, put our stepmother to sleep and don’t let her contact anyone!” I said, he did as I said. “Xiumin, please keep your eyes on her…”

“Tsk… What about you?” he asked and frowned.

“No matter what, I’m going to save Bom…” I stated.

“I’ll go with you. You’ll need a guide.” Chanyeol said and Minzy wanted to say something but he only
