CHAPTER SIXTEEN
1254 Words
Her eyes widened, lips parted and her heart dropped down to her stomach.
Park Jimin?
Thoughts started to wonder. Why is the man she met at the forest here? Or Is Jimin a butler in the palace? Bunch of questions were thrown by herself but couldn't even seek for answers. But from the expensive cardigan he is wearing, Ha Na could tell that he's not just any butler— she guess he might be from high class society.
Jimin was wearing a black turtle neck and a cardigan paired with black pants.
She watched him as he obliviously entered the dining room with his hands on his cardigan's pocket. As soon as they made an eye contact, his eyes immediately beamed while Ha Na gave him an opposite reaction.
Blood boiled inside her feeling it arising. His figure just made her remember what happened that night. Ha Na could still see and remembered every bit of what Jimin did to her nephew.
To her little Jungkook.
She clenched her fist, teeth gritted tightly, jaw stayed intact and eyes were burning with anger and hatred. What is he doing here?
"Ha Na?" Jimin's eyes widened when his eyes caught Ha Na, he put out an eye-smile on his face—one that could make the girl not resist his beauty.
She was too stupid to believe in him. She was too stupid to let him stay by their side, that night. If only she could turn back time, nothing like this could've happened. She was a fool for believing a stranger. Too fool to even take a notice.
Ha Na couldn't breath. Her breathing has become rigid and uneven now. She couldn't think properly as the memories continue to flash. The more that she looks at him with a smile plastered on his face, the more she thought to herself as a failure.
That she failed to protect a little kid because of Jimin, everything went down hill.
Ha Na didn't notice that she was crying already until she felt water dripping down her cheeks. She knew that it was tears. Tears continued to flow down her cheeks as she remembered that she couldn't murder a vampire. She's too weak for her own good.
Jimin is a vampire and Ha Na is just a human.
They're strong creatures that humans couldn't dare go against when it comes to strength and power.
Jimin shot Ha Na a look. A look of worry. Jimin's expression fell and tried to approach her. "Is something w—"
"Don't move!" Ha Na hissed at him, her vision has now become blurry from the tears and her knees were getting weak. She tried to calm herself down but she couldn't stop the tears from falling.
Pressing her lips together was useless as she suddenly blurted out. "Why are you here?"
"Is something wrong, Ha Na?" Jimin's voice cracked in worry as his steps got closer and closer.
"I told you to don't move!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs and covered her ears.
Ha Na wanted the memories with Jungkook to be erased. She wanted to erase everything. She want to escape here. I want to...please help me.
Jin- I-If you could hear this, please help me from this suffocating situation.
"Min Ha Na...?" His voice softened up, still confused as to why the lady is acting weird. "Taehyung told me to inform you that he wouldn't be able to come..."
She doesn't care about the King not being able to come but more worried about the presence of Jimin so close to her.
"How do you know—" Then right then,the door slammed open when Ha Na was about to ask him about his connection with Taehyung.
___________________________
While Ha Na was waiting for Taehyung at the dining room, she didn't realized that Taehyung was all along with her best friend, Elisse.
Taehyung was with her... Because he wanted to test her.
Elisse was crying and panicking as the wolves are getting closer and nearer her. She was backing out, step by step. Her hands tried to grip some objects. The wolves are growling and scowling at the sight of the little female vampire. She was beyond frightened. She didn't know what to do. She was scared and in panic.
During the first day, she was living a luxurious ways and now, she's living in horror as she watched them in fear. As much as she wanted to escape, she can't. No matter how many times she tried to open the door nor use her strength to break it, it was useless. She was too weak as well.
A wolf growled loudly and she knew that it was going to attack her already. The female wolf attacked her but she managed to dodge and used her ability to run fast. She was now across the room, but before she could even look, the male wolf was now attacking her as if it was being trained how to catch vampires already. An expert.
A scream left Elisse's mouth and used her full strength to give a big smack on the wolf. Although the wolf flew away, Elisse's strength was getting weaker. It was too much for her. Using her full strength was too much that its making her energy drained the life out her.
She didn't train herself to become a vampire since her family isn't into one. But she was determined to use all her strength even if it means beating them all. She tried to stand up but was too weak and suddenly felt a little dizzy. Her vision became blurry and held unto the cabinet for support while panting. Her legs wasn't helping at all and fell down on the floor as she leaned on the cabinet.
"Get out." A man's voice demanded, making the wolves all back out and left the room.
Elisse was panting very hard and she was tired already. She glanced at the man in front who was walking towards her. She couldn't see his face but the figure is so clear to her. She noticed him bending on his knees.
"Your name is Elisse right?" She didn't speak and just breathed for air. Her energy is too weak that she could barely speak already.
She wasn't expecting that scene. She never exercised herself to be a vampire nor fight with wolves and be involved in high officials—because the kingdom was in peace treaty until that Kim Taehyung declared the wipe out of the entire wolves.
"I'm Kim Taehyung." The man's voice filled her ears as she could feel him smirked at her. "And I was right when I told myself that you might be a vampire."
"W-What are you trying to prove?" Elisse stuttered and coughed out blood. Taehyung just looked at her.
But she was wondering about his words, he is a King, how could he doubt about Elisse being a vampire when he could just smell right through her?
"I know you're wondering why I did this." He chuckled, leaning in and his hot breath tickled her neck sending goosebumps. "It's because I couldn't smell anymore, aside from Ha Na."
Elisse suddenly felt something soft on her lips, and realize that Taehyung was wiping the blood away from her lips with a handkerchief.
"I just came here to tell you something." Taehyung cockily smiled before locking gaze with Elisse.
"If you go against my relationship with Min Ha Na, know that in any minute, I will tell her about you."
