Even though Chaeyoung wanted to go and accompany the late queen back home, she couldn’t. All the previous queens’ memories and knowledge were now within her. She finally knew everything and that was why she couldn’t leave Jennie in Lisa side until everything was settled.

As the witches finally disappeared in the forest, Lisa walked towards her.With just one look, he could already tell that the princess had now become a queen.

Chaeyoung didn’t wait for him to speak because she could already tell what was wrong when she saw that he wasn’t the one carrying Jennie.

"We will go back to the glass house, Lisa. Jennie needs treatment for her injuries first," she said and Lisa just nodded.

"Uhm... What about the enemy? They are still out there," Chanyeol said. His mind was still on that masked man so he couldn’t stop himself from asking.

Chaeyoung looked at him. "They’re gone. They’re not in this place anymore," she answered, causing everyone to fall silent.

Bam and Chanyeol and two more heavily wounded elite vampires sighed with great relief. It was one hell of a battle they will never forget. Their comrades had fallen. Too many things happened all at once that they couldn’t believe they actually made it out alive.
And even after all that, they still didn’t manage to kill that woman. But at least they had accomplished a lot of things by coming to this place. Their comrades’ deaths weren’t futile because they now knew that aside from Lisa, another immortal existed in this world. They had also managed to retrieve Chaeyoung queen, as Lisa had promised, although the outcome of that mission was not what they desired.

...

Upon arriving at the glass house, Lisa didn’t speak. He also didn’t enter the glass house and left Jennie to Chaeyoung’s care.
He was sitting outside on the snow, his head down, still holding the sword in his hand.
The snow was falling on him silently but he wasn’t bothered. He stayed there for hours, not moving at all until Chaeyoung came out.

Chaeyoung walked over to him and stood next to him.
"You should come inside. She will look for you once she wakes up," she said.

But Lisa just ran his fingers through his hair and tugged them. "I can’t, unless this thirst leaves me. My blood is still boiling, craving for her blood. My body now only wants her blood the moment I had a taste. Kai’s blood didn’t calm me down. I knew this would happen the moment I tasted her!" he responded under his gritted teeth.

"Why are you so afraid to drink her blood? I know you won’t kill her, Lisa, and so do you."

Lisa clenched his fist and looked up at her with a fierce gaze.
"Are you saying you approve of me drinking her blood?" His voice reeked with displeasure.

"Yes. I approve. Her blood is the cure we are looking for. This is what I received from the late queen. The reason why Jennie is the only one you can’t remember is because the cure for that spell is her blood." Chaeyoung explained, causing Lisa’s eyes to widen.

What Chaeyoung was saying was right because with just a little taste of Jennie blood, Lisa finally remembered her face in his memories, and his body also became incredibly strong again despite the small amount of blood he had from her.

"Think on this, Lisa. You won’t hurt her. Have some trust in yourself. Your love for her will help you control your urges."

"You don’t know how good she tasted Chaeyoung! Even just the smell of her blood now makes my body tremble. It’s making me lose my mind. What if I cannot stop myself? And that’s not the only problem..." he gritted his teeth again. "Something strange has been happening to my body since I tasted her blood."

Chaeyoung creased her brows.

"What do you mean?"

"I don’t know. I am still trying to figure out what the hell it is," he hissed. Anger and frustration filled his eyes. He couldn’t tell what exactly it was that changed in him but all he knew was that something seemed to have awakened inside him. He wondered if it had something to do with the dragon’s blood. He remembered what happened to him inside the cavern. When his eyes and nails turned black, he felt like he was transforming into something else. Something even he couldn’t even restrain or control. Lisa couldn’t help but think that turning into a beast in the end might be his real curse and not his immortality.

That thought made him distrust himself. If he was still himself, he would be able to control his actions, but what if the beast residing inside him took over him and he ended up...

He tugged his hair once again when Chaeyoung spoke.

"Listen, Lisa," Chaeyoung looked intently at him. "You don’t have the luxury to figure things out at this point. That woman is immortal, just like you. She’s been alive all these years. She had all the time to prepare while all of us had no clue about her existence. Even my late queen couldn’t fathom just how much power she had accumulated over that time. And there is definitely a reason why she’s after Jennie blood. My late queen didn’t know the reason why but she believed that all the answers to our questions lie in Jennie. All the answers are hidden within your wife," she explained. "I know that you already know, Lisa, that Jennie was never just a little, weak human. There is more to her that none of us knew, except for that immortal woman. Jennie herself doesn’t know anything. So what I need you to do for now is drink her blood for yourself and finally get cured. Trust yourself, Lisa. You have to completely remember her now and make sure you will not become weak again. No one can save and protect Jennie from harm but you, remember that! You are the only one who can stand against an immortal like yourself."
