The King's Obsession

C366 - It is time- Part 1

In the castle's dungeon, Jungkook leaned against the wall with his hands folded as he stared at the woman who was in the cell room staring back at him with a much intense gaze.     

"What are you staring at?" asked Mary keeping a calm facade, "Thinking you have outdone yourself?"      

Jungkook sighed, "I was thinking about how your family members enjoys spending time in these cell rooms. Unfortunately, your father had fallen in deep sleep before he was placed here."     

Mary's eyes narrowed, "Everyone lied about my parents not visiting the castle," she spoke through gritted teeth.      

"Not everyone. We just happened to show them the way to the dungeon after having some word with each other. Like you, they were too adamant on trying to get to Lisa so I killed your father and your mother turned to someone's chew toy," Jungkook ran his tongue across his upper teeth. "I am glad that Lisa has not acquired the foolishness from you or from your parents."      

"It seems like I was right, after all," commented Mary, coming to stand in front of the bars, "Lisa wore the chain, didn't she?"      

"She didn't."     

Mary scoffed, "How did you find out then?"      

Jungkook had got his servants who were humans to escort Mary to the dungeon because he didn't want any of the demons who were servants to be manipulated by this woman as he didn't know what she was capable of.      

"Thanks to your parents, you turned to acquire the position of being the next suspect directly. My question is, why haven't you tried sacrificing Lisa when you have been this close to her?" he tilted his head in question. "You are done for, Mary."     

"You haven't killed me because you want answers," the woman's expression changed.      

"Don't get conceited because it didn't stop me from getting rid of your parents," stated Jungkook, amused.      

"Then, you should. Why don't you kill me now? Come on," Mary provoked Jungkook. There was underlying evilness in her tone, inviting him and waiting to harm the vampire who stood on the other side of the cell.      

Jungkook pushed himself to reach out for the lock, and he took upon the woman's offer of stepping inside the cell room. Mary who watched the King get in, she couldn't help but think how stupid men were with their pride and confidence.      

With no guards around them, Mary didn't lose a second in muttering something under her breath and moved her hand which Jungkook caught sight of, but before he could stop her, he fell on his knees. Mary laughed, and said, "You are not as smart as you think you are. Did you think I invited you in here to kill me?" she raised one of her eyebrows, "My parents were a little dumb, but don't add me up with them. I might not have abilities like them, but that doesn't mean I am short of it."      

Jungkook caught hold of his chest, coughing.      

"To answer your question of why I didn't do anything to her yet because I doubt I alone can handle her. I have seen the body of the girl whom she killed the second time," explained Mary before muttering more spells and Jungkook spat blood on the dirty ground, "There are some others who are going to come for her. Do you know how happy I am, knowing that she's a dark angel?"      

"What do you intend to do with her?" Jungkook appeared to have trouble while speaking.      

Mary watched the King writhe in pain as his heart was being squeezed. How tables had turned quickly, thought the woman because it was only a few seconds ago this vampire was threatening to kill her.
