"Oh, the clothes are already damaged. You can throw it away!" Jace said casually.Rain turned around to find Jace standing in front of the bathroom door, wearing only a towel around his waist and the other covering his head and face. In Rain's hand was a white shirt that was torn at the chest and covered in blood like the claws of a beast.Rain knows how it feels to be ripped apart and torn by wolves, even though she's unsure if it's reality or a dream. When she saw the clothes and the blood, Rain immediately panicked. Rain ran over to Jace."What's wrong with you?" Jace backed away uncomfortably.But, Rain continued to approach him. Rain put her hands on Jace's chest and stomach. She checked for parts of Jace's body that might be injured but didn't say anything."Are you hurt, Sir? Your clothes are bleeding. Are you okay?" Rain panicked.Jace froze. He'd never gotten that kind of attention. He didn't even notice that Rain was touching his d

Jace Dauntess wasn't there, and his private room was empty. Rain stood alone like a confused person."Master Dauntess?" called Rain while looking around for the man's whereabouts. Rain thought Jace was making a joke and hid.The wind was blowing hard from the wide-open window. The dark curtains floated in the wind. Rain had to cover her face while walking there."Where is he going? Jumped out of the window?" thought Rain.Rain stood in front of the window staring at the darkness of the Darkwood forest with a shivering body."Hah, this is ridiculous! He would definitely die if he actually jumped from here, right? I'm sure it's just a trick." Rain pulled the window and locked it tightly again."Humph!" she sighed. Rain began to pay close attention to the interior of Jace's room. "He must be hiding here."Rain walked around looking for gaps, secret rooms, or whatever Jace might use to hide. She also checked any wall panels that might hav

"What happened, Your Majesty?" Erica almost got hit by Jace, who ran away in a hurry as she was about to knock on Jace's door. Jace was surprised to see Erica standing there casually. Jace became flustered and tried to hide his embarrassed face. "But, what a coincidence if we meet here. I don't have to go in there, do I?" Erica smirked. "You don't want your secret to be out, do you?" Jace hissed. "You know I don't keep any secrets in my room!" Erica snorted. "Not until last night, yeah!" Jace's face was red and very embarrassed. He seemed caught in the middle of sin. "Ahem! What's the point of you coming here so early, Erica?" Jace's eyes narrowed. "Did you come to stalk me? This early?" "Hey, you're looking at me like I'm the villain here!" Erica raised her hands in disappointment. "How about we have breakfast together downstairs?" Outside, it was snowing heavily. Jace could see the snow from the east tower window. "Not!" Erica tried to look disappointed. "Too bad, I though

Rain stopped in the middle of the ground floor of the old hall alone. At the bottom of the stairs, she saw a man sitting barefoot in this cold winter. Rain froze, with her whole body almost shaking. The man looked at her with a mischievous grin. His face is handsome, like a model in a fashion magazine that Rain often reads. However, the man's pair of sharp white fangs were sticking out with a bloodthirsty gaze. The handsome man instantly transformed with fur all over his body and an elongated muzzle. "Werewolve?" shouted Rain. "O, a friend of the beast came?" teased the werewolf with a slightly bent body position, ready to attack Rain. "You... the monster that attacked me in the forest," Rain said softly as she put her hand in her coat pocket. "Would you like to party with me, young girl? I am very hungry and long for the sweet flesh and blood of humans!" the werewolf pleaded with a pitiful face. The blood all over Rain's body immediately bubbled up as soon as she remembered how

Erica stood on the edge of the bed where Rain was lying. Rain fell asleep like the dead. Silently, Erica raised the sword she pulled from the armor display in the hallway. Erica's eyes blazed like embers, ready to explode. Her pair of hands clenched tightly on the hilt of the long sword. Erica lifted the heavy sword with all her might and prepared to swing at the supine Rain. In her sleep, Rain felt something push her to wake up immediately. When Rain opened her eyes, she saw a ray of light reflecting off the tip of the sword Erica was carrying. Erica swung the sword at Rain's chest. At that very instant, Rain rolled to the side, and the blade just dangled. "Erica!" shouted Rain, full of anger. "You're trying to kill me?" Rain rolled over and tried to run away from there. Erika sighed and threw the sword on the floor carelessly. "Oh, I was just trying to wake you up. You sleep like the dead. Yet here we are experiencing many difficulties. Can't you do a good job? You're paid to do
