Chapter 9: The Voice in the Water
Luo had both hands on Jinghan's shoulders and his face very close in the candlelight.
"Was that you?" he said quietly.
Jinghan was awake now, his mouth shut, and he knew in his bones that he had not said it.
"It wasn't me."
"I know. I heard her."
"You heard a girl."
"A girl, younger than Tang Yu."
Luo sat back on the quilt with his braid hanging over one bare shoulder.
"She said it twice," he said.
Jinghan touched his lips.
They felt exactly as they always did.
Under his breastbone, where the lotus lay, something small and cold moved.
"Is it her?" Jinghan said. "The demon?"
"Ask."
"Ask a demon?"
"Do you have a better idea?"
Jinghan sat straight on the bed and closed his eyes.
He put his hand flat over the lotus the way the warden had shown them.
"I'm Fang Jinghan," he said, feeling like a fool. "You are in my chest. Who are you?"
Nothing happened.
Then, from deep inside him, a thin voice said, in a tone of faint surprise, "Cold."
"What?"
"You're cold. And he's warm." There was a pause, like a child searching for words. "Thirsty."
Luo had gone rigid.
"Are you hurting us?" he asked, rough.
"No."
"Are you making us do things?"
"What things?" the voice said.
Jinghan opened his eyes and met Luo's.
"She doesn't know what you mean," he said.
"She hasn't made us do anything," Luo said slowly. "Not the first night, not the kiss. That was ours."
"All of it was ours." Jinghan felt his face heat.
"If it could make a man want someone, I would have wanted a lot of people."
"Than who?"
