     “How does Infinite know Haneul?” Youngjae asked, out loud but mostly to himself, as he returned home with Daehyun.

     Yongguk’s eyes snapped open from where he was lying on the couch. “What did you say her name was?”

     “What? I— Did I say a name?” Youngjae hadn’t even realized the words that had slipped out of his mouth.

     “Haneul. You said her name was Haneul. How did you know that?” Yongguk leaned forward intently, propping his forearms against his knees.

     “I’m…not sure actually,” Youngjae scratched his head, “I think I know her, I’m just not sure how.”

     Yongguk snapped his fingers. “So you get that feeling too. I’ve been trying to figure out who she is since the first day we saw her with Infinite. Himchan looks like he knows something too, but obviously that hasn’t been any help.”

     They glanced at Himchan, who was sitting at the table with a dark expression. Himchan never spoke, not for as long as any of them could remember.

     Youngjae rubbed his temples tiredly. A pounding migraine had overtaken him ever since he and Daehyun had run into L and Haneul. He crossed the room to the bathroom doorway, then flicked on the switch as he rummaged through the cupboard for a bottle of painkillers. He flicked the switch back off as he exited, wishing away every other bright light in the house with it.

     “Something weird happened when I saw her though. I don’t know how to explain it,” he said as he threw back a couple of pills with a swig of water. Even his own voice was enough to make his head pound, so he kept it low. “When she grabbed my arm, I saw the two of us sitting in what looked like a library or something.”

     “Youngjae, in a library?” Zelo laughed, “Maybe you were a smart kid.”

     “Maybe that’s it, maybe she was a childhood friend,” Youngjae nodded, “But I didn’t see her in the library, I saw myself, like it was from somebody else’s perspective.”

     They all stared at him like he was crazy, and he glanced away, knowing he wasn’t making any sense. Not that he could be expected to, what with the pressure in his skull making it feel too small for the brain it held inside.

     Having heard enough of their useless theories, Himchan slammed his hand against the table, which effectively drew their attention. Himchan knew a lot more than they were aware. Spending so many years in silence, he had a lot of time for self reflection and figuring out his own mind. He knew the rest of them still didn’t remember, but he had already started to.

     They all waited patiently for what Himchan would do, as it wasn’t often he did anything to draw attention to himself. Grabbing a pad of paper and pen from the table, he drew three rings intertwined in a peculiar design.

     “What is that, a logo or something?” Jongup asked in confusion as he peered over at the page.

     Himchan held the pad of paper up to Youngjae, giving him a hard look. He knew that if anyone was going to remember what that symbol meant, it was going to be Youngjae. The younger man stared at the drawing, saying absolutely nothing for what felt like an eternity before finally looking Himchan in the eyes.

     “It’s not a logo; it’s a crest,” he said.

     Himchan nodded once, then began drawing something else: a pair of wings.

     Youngjae went cold. The library. A stone citadel. The Divine realm. The king and his daughter. Haneul. His daughter was named Haneul. He dropped to his knees as it all came flooding back, the pounding in his head getting to an unbearable level of pain. He remembered.

     Himchan look

Chapter 37: Found this gem by chance, and I am so happy that I did. Literally had my mouth open in amazement the whole time I was reading this. The plot is like Romeo and Juliet with a bit of His Dark Materials (the whole aspect of 'sin') and even some Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Oh, this was just wonderful. And I suddenly just remembered that this is also like the 'Fallen' series by Tom Sniegoski. Keep up the good work, Author-nim :)

Chapter 37: It was really really good! I'm so surprise by the end though .. I just can't belive something like that happend to her. I'm glad everythings seems alright at the end. I will definatly read the prequel! (I'm the type a reader who read only when the fiction is over so don't take it wrong if I didn't comment).
I really like your way of writting. Your despcrition and vocabularyare perfect! The plot is really interesing and different from what we are use to read. That's why I think your story is a masterpiece haha.
I have a question .. where did she put her wings when she go outside ? While I read I always have this question in my head xD
I hope you will made another story with Myungsoo on the main caracter.

Chapter 37: Chinguuuuu~~~! I feel like I haven't talked to you in over a year!! (Of course I do, didn't you finish your last story over a year ago? :p) I'm not sure if I ever commented on this story, but I really had no time to comment on every chapter like I did with your previous story. School hates me.
Ok, first thing's first: the characters. Have I mentioned how much I love you for using Infinite (especially Myungsoo) as the main? No? Well, I really really really love you right now! I can't think of any group that would be more perfect for the role. Honestly, I'm not happy that BAP were evil, or that Youngjae died (since he was actually good in the end), but again, can't think of a better group for the role.
Second, the plot line. Again, have I mentioned how much I love your plots? Again, no? Well, let's just add two more reallys to the I love you! I love how the story just flowed smoothly and there was character development! Wow, you really know how to write a story! And I love everything from the simple chapter titles to the ending!
Lastly, my final rating for this story. Of course, it's another 20 out of 5 stars! You've earned it! Now, I'm going to subscribe to the prequel! Saranghae chingu~!
