Love

To love someone and be loved by them is one of the greatest joys of life. People often wanted to feel that euphoric feeling in the world, where love is considered the pure essence of most desired emotions. People laugh when they love, people dance when they are loved by that specific one.

But there existed another universe where people laugh but in a wicked manner when they love, people mourn when they are loved by that specific person. People kill when they love. Because loving there is considered the royal sin of darkness, the pitch black viciousness never fails to lead them to the hatred which is bloomed when they love each other.

He was running out of breath, visions were becoming blurry. The same serenade muffled in his ears. He covered his ears not to fall asleep to that tune.

But all of a sudden a stinging pain in heart caused his breathes hitched. He clenched his hands near the heart area. That specific torment in that pain was intolerable. 

Slowly, he resided himself to dark kingdom. He was afraid to sleep, he was afraid to dream. But it was written on his fate which cannot be denied.

That melody, that specific urge to keep own self awake but a poisonous spell disguised in angel was casted over him already. He was deep asleep, he was kept in that dark kingdom of sleep where sin was the royalty. He was supposed to keep himself sane but that nightmare, that cold hand, that little bracelet, that cold and fragile hands made him wear, they were appearing again.

Those hands slowly touched his temple.

Cold like ice!

But burning his soul like setting flames with each touch. He was not aware what state he was in. Was he asleep or awake? Was all his senses were out of true events or it was that worst nightmare bothering his simple yet messed sleep?

He shot his eyes open wide. He didn't know either he will be opening his eyes, to watch something very uninvited but expected in front of him. There she was.

She was sitting there.

Just like she used to sit at the corner of the library with a very graceful posture, her honey like wavy hairs falling at both sides of her shoulder.

He thought that. But it was pitch dark, she was not illuminating like any angel rather some darkness was emitting from her surrounding. Smell of poison and sin.

Then why he imagined her like his love of life?

His eyes widen at the sight when she came closer to him. He was lying but somehow managed to sit on his bed. He don't even know how he end up lying on his bed, he was on his table, scribbling on papers. All those thoughts gushed out like storm wind when he felt the girl very close to him. But this time not in front of him but from behind.

When she went behind me?

He thought. He kept thinking until a very native yet unknown voice was whispering to his ears. He got chills, the voice was sweet sugar coated but that unheard obscurity in her voice gave him shivers.

His state was quite messed. Breathes heavy, sweating mess, the unfamiliar shadow yet a native smell that he can't remember was surrounding him. Part of him was mad crazy to know what is happening, why is this happening, what's gonna happen next and another part of him was scared to reveal which was unrevealed for so many decades. Maybe that part of world, that part of mystery is sworn to be not seen by someone?

"Jeongguk"

A whisper, a very desperate yet soft whisper was muffling in his ears. She was calling his name. Why the voice was so known? Why he felt like he heard this voice, this voice crying for his name thousand times?

"Jeongguk, you remember me?"

He snapped his head towards the direction of that voice behind him.

He found no one.

"You remember your Luna?"

Same voice this time but in a very sudden manner from the opposite side. He snapped his head that side.

Again none.

Suddenly the whole room started to get saturated with thousand whispers. Felt like thousands of people was whispering and screaming his name. He looked at every side but none was there to set his eyes on. Whispers more felt like screams to him.

He closed his eyes and ears. The intolerable pain in his head and heart was increasing rapidly. Sweats covering his hands and forehead. He tried to scream out all of it. He was petrified. He wants this to stop, stop at the very moment.

As he thought all the whispers stopped. Felt like it was a spell he casted and everything vanished with one word of mind. He peeped through slight open eyes at the surrounding with fear. Curled up toes on bedsheet was releasing the tension very slow and steadily.

Some minutes passed away. He looked everywhere, not any sign of that shadow anywhere. Not a sign of that serene yet horrifying melody, not a sign of any whisper disguised scream.

So it is the end for today?

"No love"

That same voice, that damn native honey coated voice calling him love.

"Where are you Yiana?"

He said out of blue at his unknown. He was surprised. Did he just called someone but he don't know who she is? The mess was breaking him apart at this point. He want to know it all. Know whom he called, why all these is happening.

"So you remember me?"

"Who are you?"

"You just called me by my name"

He froze at his spot as he felt that cold fragile hands wrapping his waist from the back side. The sudden urge to know who is she, why he called her by her name, why she is hugging him stormed up his mind.

He felt her head resting on his shoulder. This was supposed to be very creepy but he felt an ease to heart? Why he feels this calmness taking over him very slowly and steadily?

Soon he closed his eyes , not complaining her about what she is doing. As soon as he closed his eyes, the clear view of every answers appeared in front of him. He got to know all the answers he has been seeking all these time.

"Yiana, I wish I knew I was the cause of your death"

"Jeongguk, I wish I was able to save you from your death"

She chuckled in evil manner. He stayed unturned. Knowing that dying in her hands will be the best present for him in his lifetime.

"Jeongguk? You know what I still love you. But I would never love you if I knew loving is sin. I would never do that if I knew I had to kill you mercilessly."

Whispering those into his ears, she started to lull him a sweet melodious lullaby. The serene of his death he could hear. He saw just how he killed her being in that evil spell. Just how like this his fate forced him to kill his loved one only because he loved her unconditionally!

Slowly she dug her nails into his neck with a deep satisfaction. She felt the blood oozing out of his neck just like the fountain of water. She laughed. She laughed out loud in malicious tone.

He could feel those sharp nails on his neck along with his ears bleeding those red thick fluid. He tried to scream out the pain. He tried to save himself for once. But does he deserve after killing her brutally like this?

Soon he felt a sharp object went over his chest letting him feel how dark the pain could be.

"What if I feed on your poor heart who fell in love with me?"

She smirked while taking out his heart of his body.

Dead

She looked at his fragile body laying on the bed. Bed showered with his own blood. She smirked. Licking off her finger which was drenched with his blood she whooshed away just like the flame of candle is blown out.

Lullaby demon. The beautiful goddess serene of alternate world , was actually the sinner of involving itself in love in the world where it is considered as the biggest sin. Taking its own life a curse prevailed all over the universe to the fated lovers in every parallel lives. Each of them will be killed by their fated lover once they turn adult. Each of them will taste the bitterness of death every time they feel that emotion taking over them. Those melodious lulls were only a way to let them breath the journey of this demolishing sin.
Hence, every one of them tried to escape the curse but no one could escape the fate of dark magics saturated with their life. Thus the music which used to heal world and life was used to demolish lives afterwards. The lullaby demon was the only way to manifest the curse of this sin on them~

That last petal of flower which was kept alive to keep the moon blue holding his life in it fell in the ocean of blood. The white petal slowly got painted with red stain, drowning the life to break the curse of living being. Sacrificing love and life to set the world free so that people never have to fear the phase of blue lunar eve or by hearing melodious lulls from their lover to celebrate love. Thus loving was a sin was replaced by bliss with that white symbol turning to red.

Red; the symbol of love.
