CHAPTER 23: DOYOUNG AND TAEYONG

Taeyong have decided to come and see Doyoung. He want to stop everything and he doesn't really know if he could stop everything happening. The heavy burden that he is currently carrying– he wished he was born normal like a clueless human who only think about their future and live a normal life without knowing the existence of the vampires, werewolves, demons and heavenly creatures. He didn't know what he had done to make this things happen, he's just a young man who fell in love and unfortunately to a vampire. He never resented his family even after all these years they hid the fact that they were no humans but someone who is higher than them. Taeyong was too kind for everything.

If the heavenly father favored me, why I must suffer like this?

Even in the situation like this, he couldn't believe that his best friend– Doyoung was after him and the Prince Abyss after all. Doyoung was nothing but nice to him and even gained his brothers' trust. Doyoung protected him, he's always there for him and lastly loved him. Taeyong was sure that the love Doyoung showed was pure brotherly love.

When he reached his destination, he took a deep breathe first as he looked how lively the place look like for Doyoung is staying in a bar somewhere the city.

"It's now or never"

"And what happened to his son, hyung? What did the heavenly father's son do?" Little Taeyong asked his brother who just told him the story of the life heavenly father's son who became the sacrifice just to have peace between the other creatures.

"He had to give himself up and get killed for the world to have peace"

"Did he see his father before he died?"

"No, Taeyong he did not. His father turned deaf and didn't answer to him when he was begging for forgiveness because of human's foolishness"

"Do you think it will happen again?"

"Not anymore, Taeyong. Never. We won't allow it to happen again"

"Oh, Taeyong? What brings you here? Are you here to see Doyoung?" Yuta asked when he saw Taeyong inside the bar. He's currently serving customers with drinks. The place seems like problem less place and that's why they called it Paradise. For whoever come here won't be trouble by their problems.

Taeyong nodded his head. "Oh, wait here. Juyeon! Come here for a second, I'll bring a special guest to Doyoung!"

When the guy came over to cover Yuta's place, the latter joined him with a smile.

Demons seems nice, smiling and showing off kindness huh?

"Are you nervous to meet him?" Yuta asked.

"Kind of.."

"Don't worry, Doyoung won't hurt you."

"How can I be sure of that when he wants me"

"Taeyong, he just want your power and he will never kill you. I'm sure there is something you desire too, right?" Taeyong was taken back a bit in shock when Yuta mentioned about desire.

"How did you.."

"I just know— oh here we are!"

Yuta opened knocked before he opened the door. He stood there smiling with a view of Doyoung reading a book with a reading glass on making him look different a bit from his daily look but for Taeyong, he is still the same Doyoung he met at university.

"Have you made up your mind?" Doyoung asked as he closed the book he was reading.

"I guess.. so?"

A chuckle escaped Doyoung's mouth.

"Are you for real?"

Doyoung is acting like he wasn't some sort of demon who's having a fight with other creatures. He may not be the Doyoung he met in university but he is the Doyoung he became close with and the guy his brothers trusted before.

"Being some sort of pathetic creature is tiring right?" Doyoung suddenly asked "more tiring than being a human" he added. 

He stood up and walked to Taeyong. "I get what you feel Taeyong. I'm also tired of this set up"

"Then why are you doing this?"

Doyoung became silent.  He lead Taeyong to the couch and the latter sat awkwardly on it. Doyoung poured a tea on his cup that was laying on the coffee table.

"It's a prophecy Taeyong," he cut off his words and took a sip of his drink. "a prophecy that need to happen and will bring us what we wanted— I know you have desires inside you"

I just wanted everything to restart or become a human.

"Yeah, I have desires"

"And angels aren't supposed to have desires that will ruin them"

"Am I not a fallen angel now? I have fallen in disgrace"

Taeyong couldn't help but to blame himself and to admit that he was no longer pure. He let himself be deceived by what ate him. There's no one to blame to except himself for he rebelled against his family and his responsibilities.

"Taeyong, you're still beautiful as ever. Your flaws make you more perfect and it's normal. Your brothers lied to you. Your family kept the fact that you have bigger responsibilities because they're afraid to lose you but look what's happening. Chaos." The demon reached for the angel's hand and holds it. He squeezes it and looked at him in his eyes.

"You're not the one to blame. It's them" Doyoung's eyes became red and Taeyong fell for the crimson eyes of the demon. All the memories he has with Doyoung and Ten flashed back.

It's true that he was just a clueless kid and Doyoung is showing him the truth.

In this world, no one remains pure. Everyone has their own desires and sins. If you let your innocence and arrogance dominate you— you will never know the truth. To make things balance, you have to know the good and bad sides. Because at the very first place, God created the tree of knowledge. The tree contains the knowledge of good and bad. It is bound to happen to humans to be lured once in the darkness to know the truth of ugly world.

"Hold my hand, I never mean anything bad to you. Taeyong, I can give you everything just cooperate with and let's end this."
