Doctor Demon

Chapter 227 - Baekha's Plan (7)



Baekha was in her makeup room, feeling a little dizzy. She held the dresser to steady herself but for some reason her body was acting strange. Her skin was burning with fever and she was pale as a ghost. 

"Agh!" she exclaimed and slumped on a chair. Her knees were getting weaker and weaker. 

"What's happening?" she mumbles weakly. She was usually very healthy. How did she fall so ill?

The door to her dresser opened and her manager, Jango, walked in. He was talking on the phone so he did not notice Baekha's condition.

"Yes, he will shoot for the commercial," Jango was saying. Baekha quickly steadied herself and started to put some powder on her face. Jango hung up the phone and turned to her.

"Good news!" he told her. "The CEO of Purple Light just called. They want you to become the brand ambassador of the men's fall line!"

"Ironic that they want a girl to promote their men's collection," she muttered as she put on her wig, securing it tight on her head. 

"They don't know that!" he scoffed. "This is great. Not only are you beating Hwang Minyoon in the charts but now, you're managing to take away his endorsements too! Purple Light was his brand until very recently."

Baekha was only pretending to listen. Her head was spinning but she ignored it and focused on getting ready. Jango chatted for a while but she was not paying much heed to him. He finally left her alone and as soon as he was gone, she laid her head on the dresser, trying to get some rest.

Behind her, the demon was still sucking out her energy. He was now restless and impatient. The shaman told him that the potion would be ready by the next day but he could not wait.

That damn doctor was ruining his Jisoo and he could not sit idly!

"I'll have to suck out more energy from this bitch!" he muttered, looking at his sister. "She's not enough though. I need more. Where will I get some?"

I should try sucking some out from the people outside, he thought. The shaman told him that only Baekha could be his source of energy since they shared the same blood and DNA. But the shaman lied to him about many things so he no longer trusted that man.

Baekha was on the verge of fainting but she managed to control herself. She could not afford to black out that night.

Meanwhile, Minyoon was backstage. He was already dressed and wildly energetic for the show. His new song, 'Restless Nights' got a tremendous response from the fans but Baek's song was starting to challenge his one. That night was going to be a battle for the top and Minyoon was charged up for it. 

He did not want a spoiled brat to take over his spot as the top idol. Anyone but that guy.

Also, there was something else he needed to accomplish that night.

"Are you ready?" Chanhyuk asked him.

"Yes!" Minyoon exclaimed. "Let's do this!"

He stepped on to the stage where thousands of fans cheered at the sight of him. Smiling at them, he waved at all his beloved fans who were screaming his name at the top of their lungs. The lights fell on him, making him brighter in their eyes and his dazzling smile made the fans go weak.

"He's so cool!" Soobin squealed in delight, making Yoonmin feel irritated.

"He looks like a stick!" he complained. "No good features at all!"

Soobin stared at him. "You two look the same!" she pointed out.

Yoonmin ignored her and kept on glaring with jealousy at his twin. He was going to make his twin work twice harder for the next six months, making his schedule so tight that the guy would hardly get time to breathe.

And I will get the fangirl to myself, he realized with an evil smirk.

Minyoon was still waving at the fans, happy to see that they love him so much. All his hard work was worth it simply for their smiles and happiness.

"Thank you everyone!" he waved at them. "I'm so thankful to you all for loving me this much!"

"YESSSSSS!" The chants of the fans echoed throughout the studio. "WE LOVE YOU MINYOON!"

He was overwhelmed but composed himself. The stage fell into silence as he adjusted his microphone. All the fans hushed up while the lights began to dim except for one which shone right on Minyoon. 

Slowly, his melodious voice began to fill the silence. 

"When I fell in love with you

My heart became restless and weak

Our love was not easy

We fought, we made up, we fought again

It was drama and romance

And sadness…"

The fans swayed to his tune, lighting up their lightsticks. The whole stadium was filled with periwinkle lights, illuminating the whole place as he sang. 

"He's so cool!" Soobin sighed.

"He's a drama queen," Yoonmin muttered. Soobin sighed and turned to her jealous boyfriend. Yoonmin was sulking because she was Minyoon's fangirl and he did not want to admit that he was envious. 

To Yoonmin's surprise, she lightly pecked his lips.

"You don't have to be jealous!" she giggled. "I might be his fan, but you'll still be the number one person for me!"

Her words soothed his jealousy and he became a little pompous. "Of course I'll be your number one person!" he boasted. "After all, I am the more handsome one of the twins. And richer."

"No one really cares about your money or looks!" she sighed but smiled at him. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and she settled against his chest while cheering for her idol. 

Inside Minyoon's makeup room, Jina and Hobin were also watching the show on a large television set. Miyoo was on Hobin's lap, happily cheering for her brother.

"Minmin!" she cheered. "Minmin!"

"He can't hear you from here, silly!" Hobin reminded her but Miyoo did not care. She was going to cheer for her brother. Jumping off his lap, she walked towards the TV and hugged it as if she was hugging her brother.

"He might have hundreds of fans but she'll remain number one!" Jina snickered. "By the way, where are Siwan and Jiwoon? They were supposed to grab dinner for us but what's taking them so long?"

"They'll be here soon," he assured her. "Besides…"

He put his arm around her and pulled her closer. "I want to stay with my cute girlfriend," he whispered in her ear.

"Miyoo is here!" she hissed. "Behave!"

"So what? She's busy with her idol."

He kissed her neck, making Jina blush. Miyoo turned around and Jina quickly pushed Hobin away, making him pout. They were both red in the face as if Miyoo had caught them doing something naughty. The little girl did not care. She simply shrugged and returned her attention to her brother on the TV.

"And my restless heart

Will only beat for you…"

Minyoon ended the song with a low note. As soon as the song was over, the entire studio exploded into loud cheers and chants for him.

"MINYOON! MINYOON! MINYOON!" the fans shouted. Minyon smiled at them and waved.

"Guys! I have an important announcement!" he declared. The fans were excited. Announcement? What was he going to tell them?

"Tonight, an email was sent out to two of my most special fans," he went on. "These fans were chosen based on their support and activities on the fansites…"

"Email? I didn't get one!" Soobin mumbled.

"You meet him almost everyday!" Yoonmin pointed out.

"But I'm his number one fan!" she lamented. Yoonmin merely shook his head and turned his attention back to his twin. This was it. Time to unmask those idiots in public.

"These two fans really love me a lot," Minyoon went on. "We've been tracking their activities on my fasite for months and I'm happy to say that they've been chosen for this task. They'll have to go through a series of contests tonight to win…"

Drum rolls began to play in the background as he made the announcement. 

"A DATE WITH ME!" he declared. The fans gasped and squealed in surprise. A date with Minyoon? Who were these lucky girls?

"Hard to believe, right?" Minyoon smirked. "But yes! Whoever will win is going to be my date for one night. Which is why, they'll compete it out in front of the whole world. But...they don't know this."

The fans were confused. Those girls did not know this?

"They will be kept in the dark about the contest being public," Minyoon went on. "As of this very moment, they've been taken to a safe house where they'll be locked away from the public for the night. No cell phones, no laptop, no internet. Nothing! All they have been told is that they'll be participating in a few small games and whoever wins, will get to go one one date with me. Needless to say, they've agreed!"

"Let's see what they're doing!" Minyoon said cheerfully as a large screen descended towards the stage. Everyone watched as the screen came to life and two girls came into view. Upon the sight of the girls, Soobin was shocked.

"They...they…" she stammered. She turned to look at Yoonmin, still reeling from her shock.

"Sera and Miho," he confirmed.
