"HEY HYUNSEUNG," JUNHYUNG CALLED out, then a bouquet of roses appeared on his hand like magic. He handed it over to Hyunseung and casually asked him, "Go out with me."

     "What!?" 

     The whole world stopped, well not literally, but for Hyunseung, it did. A lot of guys asked him out before, but this was the first time he felt something weird inside him. There was even a moment where he wanted to say yes in front of all his brothers. 

     Was Junhyung hypnotizing him?

     "What's your answer babe?" Junhyung bravely asked with a smirk on his face, making Hyunseung's brother's even more furious. But Jiyong was the most affected. He looked at Junhyung with disgust as he thought to himself, "The nerve with this guy. Did he really think our Hyunseung would just say yes to you?" 

     "Is it a yes or a no?" Junhyung asked once again.

     Hyunseung smiled sweetly and took the bouquet on Junhyung's hand, making his brothers' eyes widen from shock on what Hyunseung just did. So Junhyung happily smiled back and said, "So, is it a yes?"

     Hyunseung didn't reply. But his happy expression just a few seconds ago quickly changed into a killer glare.

     "I might be the son of lust, but I will not give in with something as stupid as this one," Hyunseung angrily stated, then the bouquet of roses was caught on fire in an instant while Hyunseung continued to hold onto it. 

     People started looking at them too. I guess they thought they were doing some kind of magic trick.

     "Bastard..." Hyunseung said, the bouquet now turned into ashes. He looked back at Junhyung once more and left without anything else to say. Leaving their brothers to handle Junhyung for him.

     Junhyung just stared at the ashes on the ground. He couldn't believe that he was dumped on his first try. Even worse, it's in front of the demons too.

     Well honestly, what did he expect?

     "That's our JS," Jiyong stated with a proud smirk on his face. He knew that Hyunseung wasn't that kind of guy. But if he was, he'd be sure that he wouldn't say yes to such a jerk like Junhyung. But if Jiyong could control his temper, Sunggyu for sure couldn't, especially since he wasn't wearing the ring. So he went to where Junhyung was and pulled his shirt towards him.

     "What's that all about, huh punk?! You trying to trick us or something?!" Sunggyu angrily asked, but Junhyung didn't reply, only pissing Sunggyu even more, "Answer me!"

     Sunggyu was about to punch Junhyung but someone suddenly grabbed his arm. This time it wasn't Kharon who stopped him, it was Nam Woohyun of the Arcs.

     "We're not here to fight," Woohyun stated as he slowly lets go of Sunggyu's hand before heading to Junhyung's side.

     "Are you okay?" Woohyun asked as he was looking at his sad brother.

     Sunggyu thought that this was all ridiculous, so he angrily looked back at the two Arcs who almost killed them yesterday, "What's with this shit? Do you think we'll just let you be?"

     "Father Phanuel..." Woohyun stated, making everyone confused.

     "What about him?" Minhyuk asked, a little familiar of who that angel was.

     Woohyun looked at the deadly brothers and continued, "He asked us to make things right with you." 

     As Woohyun finished his sentence, everyone was even more confused, even Kharon. Why all of a sudden? Why did their father want to make things right with them? Weren't they destined to kill each other?

     "Something's fishy here," Taeil stated, a little doubtful of what that jerk just said. So Woohyun immediately defended, "It was an order, and we had no right to decline it. We don't know what they're up to but we wouldn't care at all. This was an order given to us by one of the highest ranked angels on heaven."

     The six sons were starting to believe Woohyun's lie. They thought that maybe what he was saying was true. After all, these are angels. They're like the nicest creatures alive. But there was one brother who still didn't believe it, and that was Suho. Suho was a con-artist. He knew all the tricks and lies a person could do or say, so he knew this was a plan to trick them.

     "Do you expect us to believe that crap?" Suho asked.

     Woohyun sighed and told him, "We know you won't believe us, and we expected that already. We just wanted to say we're so...s-so..s-sorry...there I said it."

    The brothers suddenly felt the hair of their skin stand up. What was that? Why did they suddenly feel like puking when they heard him apologize? Was it because they felt like it wasn't sincere at all?

     "But don't get us wrong. We're still rivals. Our father's just doesn't like it when we do a lot of bad things just to defeat you. We'll end you for sure, but not this way. So in behalf of Mark, we apologize," Woohyun stated before bowing in front of the brothers.

    "Oh please," Jackson stated as he rolled his eyes in annoyance.

     Kharon stood there too, trying his best not to laugh on what the Arcs were trying to do.

    "We need to go. Let's go Junhyung," Woohyun then said. But before Junhyung and Woohyun could leave, Taeil quickly signaled Suho. Without asking what the signal was about, Suho already knew what Taeil was thinking about, so Suho ran to where Woohyun was and held his shoulder.

     "If what you're saying is true then..." Suho took the opportunity and quickly stared at Woohyun's face, but he suddenly felt his head hurting so he immediately stopped and said instead, "Then we forgive you...I guess."

    Woohyun smiled and nodded his head. Then the two of them left the scene. 

     When the two were out of sight, Sunggyu quickly went to Suho whose head was hurting.

     "So, did you see anything?" Sunggyu asked him.

    Suho was hitting his head as he replied, "I'm sorry but I didn't absorb any of his knowledge. I'm still too weak to perform anything."

    Sunggyu sighed and thanked Suho anyway. At least he tried even though he knew that he was still too tired to even do it.

    "Looks like you have another problem to solve my sons. Imagine that this is your first physical mission," Kharon stated when everyone shifted their attention to him. Then Jackson replied, "We don't need to solve anything because it's already obvious that they're planning something bad. Who in the right mind would attack us and ask one of us to date them the following day?"

     "We don't know anything yet. What you're saying could be true and it can also be false. But its Hyunseung's decision if he wants to get tricked or not. Do you understand me now?" Kharon seriously stated as he looked at the sons.

     "Yes Kharon," everyone answered.

     "Now get back to class," Kharon finished, and then vanished before people could even see him.

     "You heard him, let's go brothers. We'll talk about this problem some other time," Sunggyu commanded all of them left and proceeded to Minhyuk's house except for Hyunseung who already left to head back to his own house instead.

*****

The next day, the brothers woke up at Minhyuk's bedroom. They decided that they wouldn't go to class yesterday and just talk about the problem at hand. Kharon would obviously be pissed off, but they had no choice. They had to talk about what happened with Junhyung and Hyunseung.

     "Sunggyu! Hurry it up or we'll be late for sure!" Jiyong shouted as he and the rest of his brothers were waiting outside Minhyuk's residence.

     "Found it!" said Sunggyu as he showed his brothers his phone.

     All of them walked their way to HAU, hoping that they'll meet their lustful brother there. They called him several times but he never answered his phone. The rest didn't do anything else because he might just get even more pissed off. 

     Well, who wouldn't right? Getting hit by lightning by a jerk then suddenly being asked on a date by the exact same person is pretty inhuman if you ask me. So Hyunseung has all the rights of being pissed off.

     "Where the fuck could JS be?" Minhyuk asked, a little concerned about his former best friend now called brother.

     "How about we split up?" Taeil suggested, then he looked at the rest of the sons and continued, "Let's go to our class first. If JS is still out of sight then message us and let's just skip our first class and look for him. I know that we should be giving Hyunseung his so-called space, but I think he had all the space that he needed from last night."

     *Ting**Ting*

     "It's the bell, we better go," Jackson stated.

     "He's right. Let's just stick to Taeil's plan and go," Sunggyu commanded, and everyone followed.

     On the other hand, Jang Hyunseung was walking down the streets like he didn't even know the place. He was confused, no doubt, but what he's more confused about was that he almost said yes yesterday. He clearly knew that this was a plan the Arcs did to trick not only him but the rest of his brothers, but why was he willing to be tricked like that so easily?

     "Ahh!" Hyunseung shouted in frustration as he clenched his fist until his palm was turning red on how hard his nails were pushing it. His powers were showing and he couldn't help it. He couldn't even sleep last night because of the same reason. So while Hyunseung was "trying" to control his powers without the help of their ring, someone familiar suddenly arrived in front of him.

     "Look who we have here, if it isn't Jang Hyunseung." 

     Hyunseung turned around and shouted in surprise, "Trey!"

     NOTE: Trey will be introduced further in the next chapter.

     "What are you doing here?" Hyunseung quickly asked him.

     "Following you of course." Trey smiled evilly.

     Hyunseung smirked back and told him, "Right timing because I'm going to explode if I don't release this."

     Trey looked confused as Hyunseung slowly lifted his right hand, summoning his deadly weapon. But in a split second, someone covered Hyunseung's eyes and whispered, "Whoa there demon. We don't want them to find out about your true identity, right?"

     "Who are you?!" Hyunseung shouted confusingly; a little surprise on the sudden turn of events. But the man was still covering Hyunseung's eyes, making it unable for Hyunseung to know who he was.

     "You know what hurts the most?" the man asked, but Hyunseung didn't answer, so he continued, "Is that you fell in love with someone you're not allowed to have."

     Hyunseung's body suddenly stiffened as he asked, "What did you say?"

     With all his might, Hyunseung quickly removed the man's hand and pushed him away. And to his surprise, Yong Junhyung welcomed him, shocking Hyunseung even more. But Junhyung ignored Hyunseung's reaction as he looked deeply at Hyunseung's eyes and said, "Is this part of your powers Jang Hyunseung? If it is then please stop. Because if I end up falling in love with you...we might end up committing a sin that we both cannot repent on."
