Seohyun found her instincts yelping for her to let loose. She had come too unprepared. Why hadn't she thought about the other possibilities? That things might not go the way she'd planned? She felt so angry. Victoria, would have had a second plan. Seohyun grinded her teeth. She hadn't come prepared to run, not in heels. Releasing her lower lip from her teeth she calmed herself down within seconds. Becoming angry would be of no advantage to her. Not to consider that she was 40 floors up and heading back down might be an ass, especially with heels on. Well, heels might come in handy after all.

A mischievous smirk flew to the corner of her lips, "You might want to think twice about who you're dealing with, because, I, am not one for a joke either."

Grinding her hands into the cushion of the couch she felt herself sink for a few seconds before she was able to let her leg fly up. The unimaginable pain of the point of her heel pounding itself into Cha Tae Sung's stomach made him fall against the coffee table, and a clatter of the tea cups crashed against floor. Next was the most difficult she'd have to do since she didn't have the flexible skills that Victoria possessed. Oh, how she was realizing how harder it was without Victoria.

Letting out a grunt she pushed her hands into the cushion again and kicked up both her legs. The veins in her eyes tightened as her muscles strained themselves to work at her will. Seohyun had never felt such an urge to scream before when she locked her calves around his neck and pulled him from behind the couch. High pitched cries thundered the air when he crashed onto the coffee table with a loud thud.

"Security! Security! Stop the function of all elevators, lock all exits! There's a felon on the loose!"

Seohyun stared at him with a gaped mouth and immediately started toward the door. It would be no use attacking an enemy head on when she could use the time to run. There would extreme measures she would have to compensate for if she couldn't escape in time. Seohyun had been so wrong about the job. Stepping into enemy territory alone had been the worst decision she'd ever made.

She hated the echoing clicks of her heels against the tiled floor the most. It would make her the most easy target in the battle zone. She should have gone with the flats that morning. Flats also make one look classy.

"Urgh!" she moaned to herself when she turned another long corner and found herself facing another long hallway.

Where were the doors leading to the freaking staircase? Seohyun ran down the long hallway, the clicks of her shoe annoying her to the edge of the world. When she reached the goddamn corner and was prepared to enter it she quickly slid to a halt almost falling forward when she saw men running toward her. Men in neat suits, who looked built and strong. Well it would only make sense for someone like Cha Tae Sung to hire fit men to become his security, Seohyun guessed. And with no choice turned around to run back the way she'd come. A middle aged woman let out a bellow when Seohyun almost ran into her. As clumsy as the incident seemed, it was worse when Seohyun noticed the sprawled papers on the ground.

"Shit," she whispered to herself before the woman started scolding.

"And it was such hard work! Now I'll have to organize everything again! Why can't you be any more careful! Gosh, don't you people have any manners at all!?"

"Why, lady, doesn't picking your papers in the middle of escaping seem very manner-like of me?" Seohyun wanted to say the words but grumbled to herself instead. When pounding footsteps poured out from around the corner, Seohyun just grabbed the rest of the papers unworried about whether she'd accidentally created any creases or wrinkles in them and shoved them into the woman's arms.

Once Seohyun lifted her eyes up, she came to another halt when she spotted three other men running right at her.

"Oh great," she muttered.
