When Wakana doesn't appear for hours, Choi Minho and her sisters show some concern. Even if Sei and Wakana need some time alone to talk, they shouldn't have taken hours.
It doesn't take him long to find her. His blood freezes when he sees Wakana lying on the ground.
She's curled into a fetal position, her back, full of wounds, is turned toward him.
Choi Minho walks toward her, frightened to see what is awaiting him. Doubts haunt his mind. Though he has some idea what could have happened here, he still wants to believe that it didn't happen to her.
He bends down on his knees and places his hand on her shoulder.
"Wakana."
The burning smell of flesh enters his nose. Her body stirs as she cries in pain unconsciously. Horrified to see her flesh burning, he retracts his hand.
He widens his eyes and inhaled sharply. There's a large burned area in the shape of his hand where he has just touched her.
She's cursed.
LESSON ON BOND/TRUE BOND
1. Bonds can be created between normal mates (sexual relationships/intense love)
2. Though true bond is not for everyone, not all true mates realize it in the same way or complete the bond consciously or unconsciously.
3. Usually, one of the true-mates gets one or two hints, though they might mistake it as something else or just simple attraction.
4. Gods/Devils don't have true bonds. It's something to do with souls. However, devils (being dark creatures) can create simple mating-bonds with their mates.
5. Simple bonds are less binding than true bonds.
