Obsessed (1) First meeting
🎶🎶🎶
Humming...
I opened my eyes to the sound of singing coming from somewhere. Beyond my blurry vision, a handsome, agile man was humming the song, lightly moving to the rhythm. His body, reflected in his thin cotton T-shirt, was covered in lean muscles and looked toned, and beneath his rolled-up short sleeves, tattoos covered the entire body.
Where am I...? I'm sure... it was an alley...
Oh my head....
As I thought about it, my head started to hurt. I tried to naturally touch my forehead in pain, but... I couldn't move my hand.
Clank, clank...
When I came to my senses, I was sitting on the floor on my knees, my hands tied in chains.
Black walls, cold cement floors, damp air...
As my vision gradually became clearer, I was able to make out my surroundings.
I'm stuck somewhere...
How did I get caught...? Let me try to remember...
Yeah... I was on my way to the operation site earlier. I was supposed to go and hunt down those crazy bastards from my clan, but they must have gotten the information first, and someone started following me. So I deliberately took a crowded street and walked among the pedestrians.
And then, as the guy who was distracted by the crowd lost sight of me, I hurried into the alleyway I saw next to me. But there was someone standing there, and in my haste, I stepped aside to pass, but for a moment, the back of my neck felt a prickle. And then I think I lost consciousness. The person who was smiling at me right before I closed my eyes was, yes, that was... that face.
The man sitting on the high chair rested his chin on his hand and looked down at me, who was sitting on the floor. He winked, looked at me, and smiled faintly.
"Hey... pretty one, are you awake?
I've been waiting for a long time.."
There was a faint hint of sarcasm in the voice coming from her pretty and neat mouth.
"Hey!! What the f*ck, who the hell are you? Aren't you going to solve this?!"
I screamed to keep from panicking, but the truth was, my situation as tied up was too insignificant. Every time I lashed out, the empty space was filled with the hollow clank of my chains.I'm quite tolerant of most toxins, but I lost consciousness...Something was fishy.
"Who is our pretty one...?
If you get bitten by my poison, you'll either die or be in a life-or-death situation.
How are you alive..?"
The man got down from the chair and approached slowly.
"How, how would I know that..?
"Unpack this quickly before I report it!"
As I screamed pitifully, the man came towards me and grabbed my chin with his big hand.
Wow..!
I tried to externalize it by putting strength in my hands, but my body did not change.What the hell is going on...?When externalization did not occur, I became overwhelmed with extreme anxiety.
Externalization* The transformation of the water people into animal forms
"you, Are you yelling at me right now..?
"I still don't understand the situation..?"
The man's voice was calm and cold.
""It's no use trying. I've injected you with a drug that prevents you from externalizing, so you won't be able to change for a few days."
The man's round, black eyes stared at me intently. Then, crunch! I heard the sound of teeth gritting, and for a moment, his round, black pupils split vertically and then returned to their original size.
Ah... this guy is a snake charmer...
Shit, I'm screwed..... I don't get along with the snake person...
I didn't think he would let me go easily if he found out my identity.The snake people consider us their natural enemies.... What should I do?... My mind went dark. I glared at the man to hide my fear.
dripping....
A moment later, a knock was heard outside the iron door.
The man got up and quietly opened the thick iron door.
A man in a suit with a white face could be seen through the door.
"Huh? Yoongi-hyung..."
"How is it...? Has the woman come to her senses..?"
"Uh... as you can see"
The man stepped aside slightly so that the white man could see me, as if telling me to look directly at him.
""Have you confirmed your identity? Are you the person I'm looking for?"
"Okay, here.... that woman's blood test results.
DNA is still being deciphered...
"I'll bring it to you as soon as I confirm your identity."
The man named Yoon Ki-hyung glanced at me, handed me a yellow file, and then closed the door and left.
The man sat back down in his chair and opened the file as if he was interrogating me.
"Let's see... Ah, so that's why my poison didn't work...?"
The man's mouth was filled with unpleasant arsenic.
"thank you. Miss Badger..for being caught by me...
Once your identity is confirmed, I won't leave you alone...
I have some business to attend to with the honey badgers..."
