End Of Nightmares (Book 3)

Chapter; Extra: Fearsome Lioness And Fiesty Cat

One month after Lily's sudden disappearance...

Today is another fruitless find for the gang. Hwasa even gathered her men to widen up the search grid to all the neighbouring towns and cities, only to come up with nothing. Alice is right after all; when Lily does not want to be found, she will not ever be found.

"Motherfucking.... ASSHOLE!!!" Hwasa roars, throwing her sling bag at the couch with all her might. The bag explodes, scattering everything inside it around; on the floor, on the couch, on the coffee table.

Hwasa drops down to the armchair, her knuckles turning white as she clenches them as hard as she can, repeatedly hitting her forehead with the knuckles as she tries to find another way, another alternative to find her dearest friend. The Wolfharts is now in a huge mess, and with the way Lily departed, all the more reason for them to find her fast.

Every one of them knows Lily is foreign to this land, and they fear not of Lily, but those who tries to cross her. With her background and and what she has in her sleeves? It is only a matter of one wrong turn for someone to trigger Lily to ignite the flame of war. Lily might be a little composed at times, but after Alice? Her fuse is the second shortest.

Tears starting to fall onto the carpet from Hwasa's chin. Their time of knowing each other might be short, but Hwasa feels she had known Lily all her life. Lily to Hwasa is the same as Wheein meant to her, a soulmate. Lily did not only turn her back on Alice and her family here, she turns her back on Hwasa too. And that is unbelievably selfish of her to do so.

"Where... Where the fuck are you... You selfish bitch!" Hwasa's jaw tightens up as she sobs in silence in her empty, cold house. And suddenly her phone rings, halting her sorrow for a moment. She rummages her pocket for it, sliding the interface up without looking at the caller ID.

"Ahn Hyejin." Hwasa sniffs hard, bringing herself back to the center, her voice commanding and business like.

"Eee~~ Scary..." The voice snickers, and from the sound of it, it belongs to a woman.

"Who the fuck is this? You know  who you're fucking with right now?!" Hwasa yells into the phone, veins popping up on her neck and temple.

"Yah! Why the fuck are you yelling at me for?! And it's me! Yeh Shuhua! God, did you not save my number?! What the fuck?!" Shuhua blasts Hwasa with an ear-piercing shrill, so much Hwasa has to pull away her ear from the phone. And sure enough, when Hwasa looks at the caller ID, Shuhua's name is written on it.

"Shit... Sorry, Shuhua. I did save your number, I didn't check the caller ID when I picked up the call. And damn~~~ You sound different on the phone...." Hwasa chuckles. But the one on the other end is definitely not amused by her little joke.

"Fuck you! You ears must be full of wax! I still sound the same!"

"What's up?"

"Hanwoori, now. Emma and Della are here."

"You guys drinking? I dunno... I don't feel like it..." Hwasa rubs her forehead as she leans back into the armchair more. Shuhua seems to be reporting to Emma and Della in the background, with them all having a short chatter about the circumstances.

"Just come, okay? What you need the most is company, not this empty house here." Della's voice echoes around the room, coming from behind Hwasa.

"AAAARGH!!! MOTHERFU- HOW DID YOU GET HERE?!" Hwasa screams, tumbling forward in shock when she sees Della standing behind her. Della, just laughs instead seeing her friend almost pissing herself because of her sudden appearance.
