Chapter 16: Warm Christmas

[A/N: Long chapter ahead and also (slightly) M-Rated content. Those who are not comfortable with reading such thing can just skip it, although there won't be much of it honestly. Enjoy!]

A young man ruffled his jet black hair, almost a year now and still he couldn't get his hands on that rat that killed his father. He's far beyong mad. It was also his guilt that he couldn't do a thing back at that time.

He still remembers what he felt that time, his legs shook as he stood behind the wall, peeking from behind it. As he watches his father holding his hands out for Vanessa to hold, it all happened to fast for him, last thing he heard was a crack and a loud yell from his father's co-scientist Hyunsik before he watches her father's limp body felt to the ground.

He wanted to run to them, but he saw it all, all the destructions that Vanessa made in the lab. He grits his teeth in anger as his tears flows down his cheeks. He sobs silently, he bends over and clenches his hands on his knees.

He looks up to them again with fiery eyes, he watches them hurriedly walk away. Once they're out of sight he ran to where his father is and scooped him up into his embrace as he cried loudly, cursing profanities.

"I'LL KILL HER!"

Kim Mingyu, Kim Taeho's only son. Taking a sip on his glass of champagne, he sat on his swivel chair. The same office that his father once owned, after the passing of his father he took charge and swore to his dead corpse that he'll make them pay, make her pay, and he will finish what his father have started. At this point he have informed the president and the commander in chief with this matter, and what to do at this point.

Just like his father he had to convince the two powerful men of the nation to work with him. All he want now is to catch Vanessa, killing her would be the last thing he'll do eventhough he badly wants to do that. First he'll take her power, he'll take what she has. All he needs to do what to get his hands on her.

"Haerin, what are you doing out here??" Minji mouths for the gingerhead to understand her. Since the distance between them is quite far.

She just got back from work, she had to buy something before she asks the other girl to come with her later. It's almost christimas, she could atleast do something for the both of them. She brought her a dress. Something she could wear later..

She took steps forwards, the stoplights were on green, meaning she can cross.

Just when she was already in the middle of the pedestrian lane a loud honk startles her, she whips her head to the side, finally seeing the speeding bus towards her direction.

She thought this was it, she widens her eyes and droze on the spot. She thought it only happens in the movies but it's true, once something like this happens to you, once you're right in front of it you can't think of anything at all but just freeze, stay rooted on the spot, waiting for it to hit you.

She clenches her eyes, she knows it'll get her, she's readying herself for it. It's either she'll feel an excrutianting pain or a numbing pain at first then it'll slowly kick in.

In a split second she heard screams, and loud honk, and a loud crashing sound.

'Did it hit me?' She asks herself but she didn't feel anything at all, she didn't even got thrown away.

She opens one of her eyes to take a peek then opens the other. Her eyes widens at what she saw, her eyes met with sharp golden ones, staring right at her with intensity.

The first time she's seen her with such expression in her usually stoic face. Eyebrows scrunched up as she purses her lips, she was forcing herself to stay still.
