Chapter 129 - Psychopath [1]

Seeing the portal before her glowing brightly, Moon Jiwoo clapped both of her hands together and enthusiastically spoke out, "Finally, I am at here! Luckily, my legs did not give out!"

The corner of her lips curved to form a wide smile. All the efforts she had out in had finally paid off. At first, she threw the baggages in get hand through the portal.

After that, she mumbled, "Here goes nothing, Moon Jiwoo!"

With that, she extended one of her legs forward, and as she was about to enter through the portal, something prevented her from doing so.

At the familiar presence, Moon Jiwoo's eyes widened, and a gasp escaped from her mouth. The shock could easily be shown on her features.

Before Jiwoo was able to go through the portal, Oh Sookyung hugged her from behind, preventing that from happening, and Jiwoo wondered about how he was able to catch up to her this quickly.

"Where do you think you are going, sweetheart?"

Hearing that sweet tone from Oh Sookyung caused chills to go down Jiwoo's back, and without looking at his face, Jiwoo could guess how angered he looked at this moment.

Her strength could not care when it came to Oh Sookyung, and as he pulled her back, the distance between her and the portal grew. 

Before she was able to enter her leg through the portal, but now, that wasn't possible anymore due to how far she had gotten from the barrier.

"Let go of me, Oh Sookyung. Yah! I don't want to stay at here anymore! I want to go to the surface! Oh Sookyung, are you really not letting go of me? I will get angry if you don't!" Jiwoo said.

"Regardless of what you do, I am not letting go of you, Daerin-ah," he stated.

"Yah! You are holding me against my will! You can't do this! You bastard, it's my free will if I want to go to the surface! You can't hold me back," she spoke out.

"I already told you that I will get angry if you leave me."

"You make it sound like as if I am going away from you for forever! This is just a small vacation for a year or so. I will be back, so let go of me. I am tired of Underworld. That's why, I want to explore the surface. That's all there is to it, so let me leave!" Jiwoo desperately voiced out.

"Liar," he said, "You are being a coward. You want to get rid of your feelings for me. That's why, you are leaving."

Moon Jiwoo's eyes dilated further at his words, and letting out a scoff, she spoke out, "That's nonsensical! It is nothing like that."

"Stop struggling. It will do you no good. Just follow me back to the palace like a good girl," he stated, "And I will ignore you trying to do this."

"No matter what the reason for me leaving is, you can't do that to me, Oh Sookyung. You don't rule over me, and I have the freedom to do whatever I want, You Jerk! Right now, I want to leave this place, and you have no right to stop me from doing so," she said.

"It doesn't matter to me whether or not I have the right. Even if I have to use force, I will prevent you from leaving this place, Shin Daerin. Mark my words," Sookyung vocalised.

Right at this moment, Moon Jiwoo wanted to leave this place because of how he was hurting her pride, rather than her emotions. 

There was no way she was going to let him walk over her feelings and force her to stay at this place. Even if she did not have these feelings, she wouldn't have been staying at this place.

"You bastard, I will seriously hate you if you don't let go of me in this moment," she stated, "You do know I don't like it when I am being forced, Oh Sookyung! So, stop this."

"You talk way too much," he commented before bringing his face over to her neck.

His cold breath hit her neck before the pain came. Extending his fangs outwards, he drove them in through her neck, and a sharp pain spread through that area.

A wince escaped from her mouth when Jiwoo exclaimed, "What are you doing, You Bastard? Let—"

Unable to hold it in for much longer, she let the sleep take her over and closed her eyes before mumbling some curses at Oh Sookyung.

°°°

As Oh Sookyung walked through the hallway with Moon Jiwoo in his arms, he hugged her body closer to his. 

Spotting Sookyung passing through the hallway, Lee Eunmi approached him, and seeing her, he halted in his steps to face her.

Staring down at the girl in his arms, Eunmi's eyes fell on the fang marks on her neck, and she said, "Oh! So, she is the woman you like?"

She raised one of her eyebrows.

He nodded, and while a small smile formed upon his face, he answered, "Yeah. Although she can be handful at times, she is the one I want to be with."

"Well then, although this will be definitely tough, I give you both all of my best wishes! The path is not smooth, but hopefully, you will be able to keep up with it. 

If you require my help with anything, please do let me know about it," Eunmi spoke out, "After all, I am lucky to be not bound to be you. I don't mean to offend you, but I don't like the idea of being with someone chosen to me by fate."

He nodded and said, "If you put it that way, I am lucky that someone like you is my fated one. I know that things would have been troublesome if it was someone else, and if you need help with something, surely let me know about it, Eunmi-ssi."

She nodded her head and answered, "I will make sure to do that."

°°°

A sharp pain went through her neck as Moon Jiwoo opened her eyes slowly, and she wondered why her body was feeling tired all of a sudden. The bright light from the ceiling hit her eyes.

Jiwoo attempted to move her hand in order to stretch them. However, finding them to be restricted caused grown to form upon her features.

"Ah! You are awake."

Hearing that familiar voice, Moon Jiwoo turned her head to face left, and seeing Oh Sookyung stand before her, all the memories from before she had lost her consciousness began to flow inside her mind.

She recalled about how she was about to escape from the surface, but Sookyung had caught her before she was able to do so. Then, he bit into her neck, causing her to lose consciousness.

Maybe she should have listened to Minnie's advise and tried to hurry up. Then, she wouldn't have been caught by him.

Finding something tight around her wrists, Jiwoo looked up to stare at them, and noticing that they were handcuffed to the bed caused her eyes to widen in shock.

"Yah! You jerk, have you gone crazy!? What the hell are you doing, You Bastard? Let go of me right now! I will seriously kill you, You Jerk! Aren't you taking a joke so far! Sookyung, You ȧsshole! Aren't you still not letting go of me!?" she exclaimed— anger noticeable in her tone.

"Sure, I can let go of you. There is no problem with that, but you have to promise to me that you wouldn't try to flee once again," he stated, "I did say that you will see a scary side of me if you try to flee, Shin Daerin. It seems that you didn't take my warning seriously."

"Do you think I will be even be able to run away if you let go of me? You ruined a good plan of mine," she said, "And how am I supposed to know that you would turn out to be such a psychopath? 

How dare you even try to lock me up that way? Sookyung, you bastard, I didn't think that you have this side to you! You are disgusting!"

Moon Jiwoo's body started to shiver slightly at his presence. This side of his wasn't something she was at all expecting, and discovering this side of his made her feel scared of him. It was as if Sookyung in front of her wasn't the same person at all.
