Girl Who Cried Wolf

Presence

"Have you guys seen Sowon?" Eunha rushed up behind Eunbi and Yuju.

"She wasn't in the rest of your classes?" Eunbi turned around to face her, evidently confused.

"No. I haven't seen her since she left at lunch. I can't find her scent either." Eunha looked a bit panicked.

"Maybe she went home?" Yuju raised an eyebrow. It was a possibility.

"That's probably where she went. She was really tired this morning when I saw her. I don't think she's feeling well."

"Can one of you guys go to her house and check on her? I can't. I have to get to tennis practice, I'm already running a bit late." Eunha seemed to be in a rush seeing that she was already trying to walk away before finishing the conversation.

"I'll go check on her. I'll be back soon to watch your practice game." Eunbi took Yuju's car keys and headed out towards the parking lot.

"Hello?" An old lady snapped her fingers in front of Sowon's face to wake her up. "Young lady, you can't be sleeping in the library." She tried shaking her awake.

"Hm?" She groaned as she tried slapping the lady's hand away, not bothering to open her eyes.

"You cannot sleep in the library." She lightly slapped her arm.

Sowon violently woke up again. She looked confused about where she was at. She quickly bowed as she got up from the floor. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to slap your hand away." She frantically apologized.

"It's okay, darling. Go on home now." The lady sent her on her way.

Sowon was about to head out to the parking lot until she remembered that Eunha had a practice game. She was dreading having to go, but she had no other choice. She rolled her eyes as she made her way to the court.

"Damn girl, you okay? You look like you haven't slept in ages." Yerin greeted Sowon with a confused expression.

"I'm fine." Sowon shrugged it off.

"Where were you? Eunha was worried sick about you." Yuju mentioned.

"I was doing something. Can you make sure Eunha gets home safe? I think I'm going to go home already."

"Sure. I'll drive her home."

"Make sure to keep your eye on her at all times, okay?" Sowon seemed to be deeply concerned about Eunha's safety.

"Will do."

Eunbi was looking around, searching for Sowon's car as she headed towards the door. She was confused when she didn't see her car. Maybe she wasn't home either? She opened the door, not expecting what was waiting behind the door.

Eunbi covered her nose when she smelt blood coming from the field behind the house. She hesitantly walked down the hall towards the back field. She felt puke come up her throat when she saw a man with his guts torn out. He had bite marks and scratches all over his body.

Eunbi was about to investigate until she heard moaning coming from up stairs. She focused in on it, but the voices weren't too familiar. There were two people, one was a woman and the other was a man. The noises suddenly stopped.

Eunbi stood still for a moment. She began to turn around to go check up stairs to see who was in the house. When she turned around a woman grabbed her by the throat and threw her to the ground.

"What the fuck are you doing here?!" She kept her hand tight around Eunbi's neck.

"What are you doing?" Eunbi looked up at the woman in a bath robe.

"You think you can just come into my sister's house?"

"You think you can just bring a man in here? Now let me go." Eunbi glared at her.

"No, no. This is the perfect timing." She tilted her head, her eyes turning blue.

"What are you planning?"

"I can finally be the alpha." She slowly brought her claws to Eunbi's neck.

"Are you fucking insane?"

"Oh, honey, I'm perfectly sane. I'm a woman of habit, I do what I have to, to be the the most powerful so I can survive."

"You will never be like me. You're a killer, a monster."

"That man killed my kind! He tried to kill me and my sister! He murdered so many of us! How dare you call me a murder for saving our kind! I deserved to feast on his useless body."

"What the hell is going on in here?" Sowon walked in.

"Maybe next time." She whispered into Eunbi's ear before letting go.

"Your sister killed that man." Eunbi pointed to the guy lying in the field.

"She's done worst, trust me." Sowon brushed it off like it was nothing.

"You can't keep going around and killing people."

"She is not culpable, Eunbi. It is her nature. You cannot save everyone. There are many animals out in the wild eating humans everyday." Sowon did not agree with her sister, but she also understood what it was like, so she was not going to pass judgment on her. She was once like her sister.

"Her behavior is still insolent."

"I will deal with her. You need to go pick up the others since you took Yuju's car."

"Where were you anyways?"

"Doesn't matter. Go before Eunha finishes her practice game. I have unfinished business that I need to deal with." Sowon glanced at her sister with an evil look.

"I will see you tomorrow then." Eunbi closed the door behind her.

"Who the fuck do you think you are bringing someone into my house?!" Sowon immediately turned around and slapped her sister across the face.

"A woman has desires too, you know? Don't be jealous you aren't getting laid by a man. You pathetic 19-year-old virgin." She spoke with a sassy smile.

"You think I'm jealous? I don't care how many men you fuck, I will never be jealous of you."

"Um...should I leave or?" A man appeared by the front door with no shirt on.

"Get the fuck out of my house!" Sowon pointed to the door behind him. He looked at her with wide eyes before running off.

"Hey, what was that for? I wasn't done having fun with him." Sohee pouted.

"Why the hell did you think it would be okay to bring him into my house?" Sowon shoved her.

"Why wouldn't it be okay?"

"Because now this place reeks of him! Eunha will think it was me that had someone over. Do you understand how angry she will be with me?!" It took Sowon a moment to realize she had just slipped up. She took a step back with a bewildered expression. She had revealed her lie.

"You're not a virgin," she began to laugh, but it was a weird laugh, almost a creepy and evil laugh, "you're fucking that girl that lives here, aren't you?"

"No I'm not." Sowon lied straight to her face.

"Your heartbeat is beating rapidly faster, you're lying to me. I don't care that you're sleeping with a woman, I care that you lied to me about it. I'm your sister, I would never judge you for being with someone you love."

"If you want to be a good sister, then stay out of my business, and don't bring someone else into this house again!" Sowon shouted at her as she went up stairs.
