Chương 38: Arc 2 Prologue: Nightmare In The Dark

Xiao Yun whimpers from the sharp pain that she felt on her wrist. Her eyes could never adjust to the darkness of the room. She struggles again to loose her tightly tied wrist.

Her teeth sink in and bit her upper lips until the iron taste like blood starts to dribbles. Teardrops slowly fell from her swollen eyes.

The only feelings that she could describe were bitter, hate, fear, and regret. She hates herself for being caught by 'that man' and she hates everyone who destroys her life.

The fear and regret that swallow her whole was unbearable. She could feel that her sanity slowly drifts away, but she could never let herself end like this... She still has to see him once again...!

Suddenly the creaking sound from the door snaps her back to reality. Bright light from the door blinded her for a second before she adjusts her eyes to it.

Her reddened eyes fiercely glared at the man behind the door like a wild beast.

He gaze at her as he let out a slight laugh. Xiao Yun's eyes still couldn't see his face clearly, but she could feel a chill running down her spine as she heard his laugh.

" Xiao Yun " He called her name tenderly and walk to her. The man sat on his knees and gazes at her for a moment.

The long fingers of his reach out a small handkerchief and wipe away her tears and the blood on her lips. Xiao Yun twitch as she felt his cold hand brushes her face and before she knew it her body had trembled in fear.

He continues to caress Xiao Yun's jet black hair with a smile " Do not worry my love, I am not here to hurt you "

Xiao Yun knew how frightening the man was, but she could never let herself show her weak self in front of him.

She spitefully laugh at him and sarcastically retorts " M-My love? Not here to hurt me? Then could you explain what you did to me ?! " Her voice raises in both fear and anger.

His sharp eyes look at her trembling body and bleeding wrist " Is it that man? " He asks.

Xiao Yun's eyes widened "Y-You! Don't touch him! "She shouts

He once again laugh " Don't worry, I do not have interest in him- " his smiling eyes make her blood run cold.

She could feel the soft whisper of the Devil's came out from his lips right next to her ears. Her body jumped slightly to the back in fear as his face got closes to hers.

" -But if your eyes still follow his, your mouth still calls his name and your mind is still filled with him...Then I have no other choice-"

"Y-you! -" She whimpers from the aching pain on her wrist.

The man took a small knife from his pocket and cut the rope on her hand. He then took her hand and put pressure on her wound. His eyes follow the dripping blood on her wrist and put more pressure on it. Xiao Yun could not hold her moan and her hand trembles from the pain.

" I wonder- " He locked his eyes to hers " -If your eyes follow him and your hand reaches out to him.... Perhaps I should either make him disappear or make this hand and eyes of yours unable to work anymore? "

His long black hair brushes on her hand- Her body trembles as she looks at his smile,

The smile of a Devil -

" It's alright, even if you become blind and disabled I will always be by your side "

She fears him but she also fear that her sanity would slowly engulf by the abyss and lost herself

With her last strength, her hoarse voice screams in fear from the terrifying nightmare-

" No !!!!- "

Her body jumped in fear and sat on her bed, the cold sweat drenched her pajamas. She could still feel the pain on her wrist that she felt in her dream.

Xiao Yun's fingers trembles as she wipes her tears, the fear that she felt that day came surging on to her like a sudden storm.

She hugs her legs to stop the trembling that she felt. The smile of the man repeated on her mind, a murderous smile that always look amused.

Her scarlet lips quiver as she call the name of the long-haired devil that hunt her in the past ...

" C-Choi Yeon Jun !- "
