The world seemed to halt. Was she dreaming?
Jennie had seen it with her own eyes. Lisa had slashed the woman's neck with his blade. She should've been dead. So how was she still alive?! Wasn't she just a human?!
Her gaze fell on Lisa. Though she could only see his back, Jennie could tell he was as shocked as she was.
Even Chaeyoung and everyone who saw what happened felt overwhelmed. They couldn't believe it. The only one who could still live after being slashed like that was Lisa. No one else!
They could only pray that this was just an illusion. It had to be. How could this woman still be alive? There was just no way! They waited for the illusion to fade but she didn't disappear. She stayed there, looking as alive as any of them. If it wasn't for her blood stained skin and blood soaked clothes, they would have believed that Lisa hadn't slashed her throat.
It seemed this was real and the woman who was supposed to be dead was laughing again, a twinking laugh that would haunt their nightmares.
"Hahaha. Oh, Lisa… don't give me that look," her villainous yet hypnotic voice echoed again. The way she called Lisa name made Jennie feel a different kind of unease in the pit of her stomach. The woman was calling his name like she wanted him.
Lisa once again charged at her but the masked man confronted him again and with that, another round began between them.
The woman in black watched Lisa and the masked man like she was amused at their intense battle. On Jennie end, Chaeyoung, Bam and Chanyeol and five more of the other elites were left. All the other witches were dead.
The men, including Chaeyoung, surrounded Jennie.
"Chanyeol, I think it might be best if you guys escape this place with Jennie," Chaeyoung said, causing Jennie to immediately panic.
"No! Please. I can't just leave while Lisa is –"
"Jennie, we're losing! If you don't leave this place, you will… that woman will take you. And you know what will happen then, right? She will use you to make Lisa surrender!"
What Chaeyoung said made Jennie lips tremble. She knew that that was probably that woman's aim. But how could she just leave her Lisa here? She was going to run away and leave her husband to fight alone?
Jennie shook her head. She was scared for Lisa. And if she left like this, she would hate herself even more for being so useless. She had had enough of this. She was the only one standing around while everyone around her was dying to protect her. She hated this to her bones.
But if she refused and the enemy really used her, she would be the cause of Lisa's downfall. How could she live with that? What would she do? What could she do then?
Jennie felt like she was going to burst. She wanted to cry and she couldn't help but hate herself. Why couldn't she be useful for once? Why couldn't she help Lisa in his battle? She didn't choose to come to his hell just to watch. She wanted to do something for him too!
While her insides were being torn apart from her internal battle, she saw Lisa suddenly fall to his knees, clutching his chest. He looked like he was breathless. The masked man stood right before him, watching him closely.Jennie body began to tremble. What happened? Didn't he remember everything already? Why was he in that state again? No!! This couldn't be happening! Not right at this moment!
Tears flowed from her eyes. Lisa looked like he was in pain. He was in danger. He lied. He had lied to her. He was not safe at all. He hadn't regained all his memories yet."Oh, Lisa… how foolish you are to sacrifice your immortality just to save a girl," the woman in black stood up from her throne and she started waltzing towards Lisa.
As she walked closer to him, she picked up Lisa sword that was lying on the ground just out of Lisa reach. She kept walking towards Lisa, the sword's tip creating sparks as she dragged it against the ground.
Seeing that woman walk closer and closer to Lisa, who was still in pain and gasping for breath, made Jennie lose her senses. That crazy woman was going to kill him. She couldn't just watch. She couldn't take it anymore.
And before she knew it, she forced her way out of the circle, her protection, and escaped. Chaeyoung and Chanyeol were too late to stop her because they were too focused on the vampires and witches they were fighting against.Jennie ran towards the stairs.
"Lisa!!!" she screamed, crying as she climbed up the stairs.
Lisa heard her scream and he gritted his teeth. "Don't… don't come… leave…" he begged between his gasps.
But Jennie didn't stop.
The woman in black turned and when she saw Jennie, she let go of the sword and walked towards Jennie instead with open arms, as if to welcome Jennie.
Jennie halted upon seeing the mad woman more than ten steps away from her.
"Oh, Jennie. You're finally being obedient," the woman said, her voice suddenly kind.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?!" she asked. Jennie was surprised that she didn't feel scared. No, this woman didn't scare her. What scared her was Lisa being in danger. She would not be able to take it if something bad happened to him.
The woman took another step closer to her and then stopped.
She lifted her hand and began to remove her veil.
The moment her black veil fell on the floor, Jennie eyes dimmed. She was so shocked. Her body felt like it turned into a statue.
