This isn't your typical paranormal/fantasy demon based romance...
In this world there is a thin line between a God and a demon. In fact, Lucifer himself recruited seven former Greek Gods as his own Dominion. Each leading a Dominion over each of t...
A/N: Sorry this is a little later. My beta reader, my husband, didn't have a chance to look this chapter over this week. So, I tried to go over it with a metaphorical fine tooth comb myself.
I've been waking up late, and even just now I was falling asleep while proofreading. So, it took me longer than I anticipated to get this chapter up.
Please know that there will be an important author's note after the chapter is up.
This chapter takes place the same day as Chapter 30

Over my many years as an empath I have learned that sometimes the people that I am emotionally closest to, those who have been in my life for several years, they somehow tend to forget that key element about myself. This most especially happens when they are overcome by their emotions. They forget to put up a protective mental wall, or their strong mental walls that are already in place easily crumble and fall apart due to their emotional upheaval. It's such a complicated ability to have to deal with. I literally feel everyone else's emotions as well as my own emotions on top of them. It's even more taxing in moments like these where everyone's emotions are in such flux, whipping through one emotion to the next due to uncertainty or self blame. I end up often feeling like a rubber band that has been stretched so thin I fear I might psychologically snap. Break.
I'm probably the only one in our Legion who knew that Hoseok was dually blaming himself. I hadn't asked the reason for it. I just knew that I felt his blame and guilt for the one thing everyone in this house is guilty about, and then a few days later I felt it had doubled in capacity.
I know Seokjin is feeling more than guilty; he is also in even more misery because for the first few days Everleigh wouldn't eat anything. He worried so much about her health that his own appetite started suffering from it. I'm not sure I can remember a time seeing him turn away food. He would still make huge meals for all of us, but he would always say that he would wait until Everleigh got her plate before eating himself. After watching the plate sit there in the hallway during the duration of the meal he would sigh and resign himself to the fact that it would remain untouched. He would then put very little on his own plate and only nibble on that small morsel, most often not even finishing the scant amount himself.
I'm probably also the only one that knows that while Jungkook won't switch from his rabbit form, he is kind of hating having decided that it would be his penance that he chose. After all, rabbits are herbivores, and, even more than Seokjin, Jungkook does like to eat... Everything. He likes to eat pretty much everything. He's been known to eat third helpings even after everyone else would state how full they were.
Unlike Jungkook, Yoongi won't revisit his alter form at all. I haven't completely worked out the reason for that though. I just know that in the past when he had to think something over he would go outside and sit in the shade of a tree as his Snow Leopard. I know that he and his alter don't think alike, but while his alter was at the forefront that gave Yoongi a secret place to think. I am guessing that he doesn't want to revisit his alter since he had spent so long with her as his alter before the big blowup happened.
