Bom POV

My skin and clothes were all dirty. CL grabbed my hand and told me that I have to bathe in the hot springs they have in their wind castle. I agreed quickly and she couldn’t hide her happiness.

Sehun and Tao went ahead of us. We decided to use some of the vehicles left by the fire clan, that stayed untouched. Lay, Chanyeol and Kris left to Suho’s apartment to take Minzy and Xiumin out of there. I heard Tao telling Lay to bring their stepmother to the wind palace.

“Are you alright?” Luhan asked me on our way and I saw him glancing at me every minute.

“Yeah why?” I asked and tried avoiding looking at his almost totally bare chest.

“I don’t know… just curious…” he said and pulled my into a hug. One of his hands was on my waist while he touched my head with the other one.  “I’ve missed you…” he finally said and his hand slid onto my back. Sudden wave of hotness hit my body. I knew that others were staring at us but it didn’t matter at all.

“Bom? …your hair?” Luhan asked me after a while. I saw him holding a strand of my  hair. It’s semi blonde and almost orange color looked really vibrant in comparison to the rest of my hair.

“Ehmm…. “ I didn’t know what to say “… Luhan what happened to Sunmi and Hyosung?” I asked and wanted to change the topic.

“’I’m afraid that they didn’t make it…. “ he said and I felt a sting in my heart.

“Don’t be sad.” He added after looking at me, leaned and pressed his lips onto my neck. His torn shirt parted a bit and I saw not only his chest but also sculpted abs.

“Lu…?!” I squealed.

“What? Can’t I kiss you?” he pouted and this time kissed the place next to my ear. I grabbed parts of his shirt and tied them. He looked at me with amusement.

“No… I didn’t mean that.” I said and glanced at my tattoos. Roses started blooming slowly. If he continue I’ll change even more!

“Look guys! We’re there!” suddenly CL yelled, grabbed my hand and dragged me to the window. I looked out and the view took my breath away.

“Wow!” I said and she looked at me with twinkling eyes.

When we landed Sehun and Tao were waiting for us.

“I welcome you in our home.” Tao greeted us.

“Get some rest for now and we’ll celebrate my dear hyung’s return later tonight. “ Sehun said.

“I’ll show you your room!” CL grabbed my hand again and lead me to the room with the most beautiful window view I ever saw. There wasn’t a bed in here but a sleeping mat with a white mosquito net above it.

“This place is like a fairytale!” I said and started exploring the room. Everything was designed and made in harmony with nature.

“I’m glad you like it.” CL said “You look tired. Let’s go and bathe now! I’m sure you’ll feel refreshed.” she said and we headed downstairs. The touch of wooden floor under my feet felt really good.

“This is my favorite spot in the castle.” CL said as we entered an open porch which stairs that lead straightly into the water. CL started undressing and I surely looked confused. What if somebody sees us?

“What is it?” she asked me while I stared at her.

“Nothing….” I blushed and tried to untie my dress.

“I’ll help you.” She offered and here we were standing . I covered my s with my hair. I didn’t look so and y as my body was all covered with tattoos.

“You look beautiful.” She said all of a sudden, gave me a small towel that I could only cover my s wit.

“Thanks… “  How could she say that? Her whole body and skin are pure perfection. I’m nothing comparing to her…. I have to admit that even I’m slightly captivated by her.

Then she walked into the water.

“Uhh…” she moaned “It feels so good. C’mon, what are you waiting for?” she said as I stood on the last step. Finally I  got into the water and uncontrollably smiled. It was as if the water instantly regenerated my energy level.

“Is it even possible? I feel great.” I said  and CL smirked. Time passed as we were enjoying the hot water.

“Wait a minute…” she came out of the spring and disappeared for a moment. I started looking around. I hope nobody will see us…

Right when I was thinking about it I heard a sound of a waterfall. Water started falling right next to me. I pulled out my hand to touch it and it felt so good. Actually I could smell the water… flowers or fruits I wondered. I’m not sure but it’s certainly magical…

I went inside the water stream. Standing there and facing falling water drops.  I looked at the tattoos again. If I could only be normal again… I sighed.
