PS I'm Over You

When the little girl woke up for the second time, she couldn't identify where she is. She looked around and saw several children sleeping beside her. Where is she? Where is this place? She opened her mouth to ask someone what's happening when she noticed that she couldn't make any sound.

Her hands touched her throat and tried to say something again but failed. She cried again. What kind of nightmare is this?

The first time she woke up, she saw her mother dead and their home burn down into ashes. Now, she is somewhere, detained in a room full of other children. Some are sleeping on the cold floor, the others are silently crying not making a sound just like her.

She sat in a corner of the room alone. Her tiny hands folded on her l.a.p. Her tears keep falling from her eyes no matter how much she tried to calm herself. Remembering her deceased mother, she bit her lower lip until it bled. There's no one to save her now.

The little girl wrapped her arms around her legs before burying her face in it. She will not let them see her cry. Her mommy always told her that she has to be brave whatever comes in her way. Now she's alone, tired and sick. Ririna wondered how long could she endure this nightmare.

A tall slender man opened the door and looked around the room as if looking for someone. When his eyes landed on the little girl sitting in the corner, he strode towards her direction and knelt in front of her. His hand tilting up her small chin to look at her face.

His lips curved into a smile. A smile that the girl will never forget even when she grows up.

"The shade of your hair is different but the face and your features are the same as my Yelan. Beautiful. Too bad you aren't mine because if you were, you would become a princess." The man grinned at her.

The little girl looked at him with confusion. This man knows her mother's name but why did he kidnap her? Does he plan to sell her to other people after they already raided her home?

"Who are you?" The little girl asked.

"My, my. So inquisitive just like the mother. Now let's see what did your mother put in your blood."

He slipped both of his arms under her underarms and took her with him. The other children could only watch with fear in their eyes as they watched another child taken to the next room for another series of torture and laboratory experiments.

Present time…

A man in his mid-twenties with light strawberry blonde shade hair walked in the dark hallways of the west wing of the mansion. He had spent more than two hours on the road just to get to the place. He assumed Kian has already paid the old man a visit. As if he could change anything, he scoffed to himself. Kian is so obvious about what his goal is.

Of course, it is about that woman.

"So she's still alive?" He asked the woman who was following behind him.

"Yes, Master. She survived but still in a critical condition. Should we go and eliminate her this time?" The woman asked. She has long black curly hair that was tied in a high ponytail. Her business attire shamelessly highlighted her curves and ample b.r.e.a.s.ts.

The man shook his head. It seems the witch couldn't easily be eliminated from the game. He wondered though why the old man listed her as another candidate for the title. The woman is useless in terms of hand to hand combat although she's quite a catch when it comes to surveillance and strategic operations.

What made both the devil and Kian fall on her charm? Both men are dangerous in their own ways but she was able to make them fall on their knees. What kind of woman is she? He has seen her picture in the database. It was a bit outdated but he knew that she's just more than an average compared to other women he had taken on his bed.

He smirked at the idea of meeting her. She had piqued his interest. How could a woman of her caliber do something impossible within the Underground community? Even after her five years of retirement, she could easily dispose of those newbies they had sent without breaking a sweat.

A witch indeed. Someone who should be never underestimated within the community. She's more than dangerous now that the devil is beside her. This game is starting to get exciting. Not only has the witch joined the game, even the devil has too. He wondered how long could the devil protect his witch and his spawn from him and Kian?

'Ririna Han. If you are the witch and you got a devil, let me be the warlock,' he thought as he dug both of his hand in his pants' side pockets as he continued walking towards his destination.
