Chapter 44: Wi GaHyun

The beautiful gold-trimmed coffee cup, the aromatic coffee within, the sweet shortbread cheesecake, and the handsome man sitting opposite her—these were the things Alice liked at Heart’s house.

Heart twirled Alice’s lovely golden hair around his fingers. It meant nothing, but he repeated it without getting tired of it. Alice dropped her head to hide her rose-colored cheeks. Then his fingers lifted her chin. The wrist attached to those fingers was wrapped in bandages, but Alice did not see them.

“I will tell you the third hint: there are eyes everywhere.”

Heart told her with smiling eyes and a soothing voice.

Alice Liddell had restored Shirley Howard with her healing powers. She had made sure no one was around to see, but eyes are not owned only by humans. The security cameras in the area caught this on tape, and as a consequence, her parents were killed.

Alice frowned and pouted, pretending not to understand it. Her pink lips were as pretty as a rose about to bloom, but Heart did not kiss her.

Disappointed, she whined, “How is this a hint?”

But all Heart did was to continue to smile. Alice Liddell tried to creep up as she stared, in a trance, at him. But the moment she felt Alice Liddell, she closed her lips.

“GaHyun? You don’t look well all of a sudden. Is there something wrong?”

Instead of answering, she shook her head, her eyes like crescent moons.

“I might be getting a cold…”

She barely got an answer out as she hurried from the drawing room. Heart’s smiling lips slowly made their way back down. Last night, the wire had almost got cut off his leg, and it throbbed.

She locked the bedroom door, hid under the covers, and began her fight with Alice Liddell.

The strength of Alice Liddell’s consciousness was becoming tougher and longer. Now, Alice Liddell would rise in her during even the slightest moments of relaxation. Alice cursed viciously at Alice Liddell, who pleaded for her body back. She forced Alice Liddell back down and chewed her fingernails nervously. I need a plan.

***

That night, Alice dreamt. She realized she was in a dream was because her surroundings were unnaturally dark. She looked around until she found a blurry shape and started to walk toward it. As she got closer, the shape became clearer. A glittering golden-haired girl was asleep in the fetal position.

Alice knew this was her chance. Her fingers felt heavy, and she smiled as she sensed a familiar feeling in her hands.

Suddenly Alice Liddell opened her eyes. Alice Liddell looked up with wide eyes as Alice hovered over her with a kitchen knife. Upon seeing this, Alice Liddell got up swiftly and ran away.

“She’s not a complete idiot,” Alice mumbled pleasantly while watching the back of Alice Liddell.

This place was a dream. The stronger person would win.

Several obstacles blocked Alice Liddell’s path as she attempted to run away. She was stopped by a wall, by a crowd of people, and a car almost hit her, but she kept running. Because she had been running so fast, she tripped over her feet and fell hard. She got up and tried to run again, but a wall rose in front of her.

Alice smiled and looked down at Alice Liddell. Blue eyes filled with fear looked back at her. That girl had looked like her too. Just like the stupid and naive Alice Liddell in the book Wonderland, her first love had been stolen: Ye SoYoon. Although the man’s face was now just a blurry memory, her feeling of hatred toward the girl was still intact.

“I’ll do to you what I did to that girl.”

She was just like that disgusting girl who died without even putting up a fight. Before I came here, I made a silly mistake. If I had just gotten rid of her through the false rumors instead of getting caught while finishing her off, he would have never treated me like that.

I will not repeat the same mistake. Alice lifted the kitchen knife. At that moment, Alice Liddell pushed her and ran away.

“Where are you going?”

Through the darkness, Alice grabbed Alice Liddell’s flowing hair. Her golden hair, blue eyes, beautiful face—she wanted to destroy all the features that looked like her. A piercing scream echoed through the darkness.

“Why aren’t you fighting back? You were torturing me all this time! Why don’t you do that now?”

A river of blood poured out of the butchered body. Alice threw Alice Liddell into the pool of blood. The destroyed body had already breathed its last breath.

Alice spat over the body. She wanted to make sure she never saw Alice Liddell again. As she thought this, Alice Liddell’s body sank into the pool of blood. Alone in this world, Alice laughed maniacally.

In that moment, SoYoon, who had been driving, felt a presence and stopped the car. One of the corpses stacked in a back seat, a small girl meant for Duke, started to move. SoYoon started the car again and parked the car in front of Wonderland.

She dumped the other corpses into the slums and lifted the small girl over her shoulders. The once-cold body had regained some warmth.

She entered one of the empty houses, put down the girl, and examined her. She looked to be about 14 years old, had dark, short hair and a chic look about her, like a cat. SoYoon was sure that she had been dead when the girl had been placed into the car.

“This will be bothersome.”

SoYoon mumbled then flopped down next to her.

***

The girl didn’t wake up for several days. SoYoon stopped by once or twice a day to check her status. As the days passed, the girl progressively became closer to a living human. With this development, SoYoon was sure that she would wake up soon.

Should I tell March to take care of her? Would he reject the idea, not wanting Alice to get the wrong idea? Pondering those thoughts, she left the place. A few minutes later, she ran into Twins in the middle of the street.

Currently, Twins were not in a good state. To be exact, they were riddled with an anxiety the cause of which they could not pinpoint. They lost their appetite. Even the second thing they liked more than girls, which was chocolate, had no appeal to them. Out in the streets they wandered, girls threw themselves at them, but none whet their appetite. They were meandering the streets in a desolate state when they ran into SoYoon.

I want to attack. I want to ravage her and bite her. They swallowed as their appetite returned. Their surroundings were becoming dyed red, and their head was spinning. I need a girl now. But the only girl in front of him now was SoYoon.

With lust-filled eyes, they scanned her thin body. She had on clothes that hid her soft breasts and bittersweet scent so that one couldn’t tell if she was a girl or a boy.

That girl will be enough. A chill ran down their spine at the thought of it. But you can’t touch that girl. Their heart trembled nervously.

As they were battling with feelings they’d never felt before, SoYoon continued on her way. Twins clenched their fist. As she passed him, Twins got a whiff of her soap.

They raised their right hand, but their left hand was able to push it back down just in time. Their hands were shaking from powerful urges, and a growl from the back of their throat escaped their lips.

After coming out of the small room, they realized that this was the first time that they were forced to resist their urges. Because she was dangerous? Because we couldn’t overpower her? When have we ever worried about that? Dum felt the dangerousness of the situation.

That night, Dum checked to make sure Dee was asleep, then stepped outside. The daily activities of Wonderland usually ended earlier than that of Outhouse, and so night here was quieter. Only his heavy footsteps broke the silence that fell over the street. Dee walked for an hour and stopped in front of a building. It was the place where he had spent a week with that girl.

“Girl. F*ck, she’s no girl.”

His lust-filled mouth smiled as he carefully opened the door. Due to the girl’s fearless nature, the unlocked door opened without resistance. He crept through the opening and quietly moved inside.

The sound of calm breathing filtered through the silent night. As if magnetically drawn to her, Dee stared. Her fairy-dust-filled brown eyes were shut.

He put his nose to her neck and inhaled deeply the sweet and bitter scent of fruit. Dee bared his teeth. In the blackness, his white teeth flashed.

His teeth were ready to rip into the thin skin when SoYoon’s blue vein pulsed. Ah, f*ck. That’s so cute. He placed his tongue on the vein to taste it and it jumped once more. I’ve lost my mind! I knew I’d lost it, but I’ve officially gone insane!

He scratched his dark golden hair in confusion but continued to look down at the pulsing vein. If I bit through that, would she jump like that too? She was expressionless even when she was pinning him into a wall. But thinking of her cowering and crying underneath him made his insides catch fire.

He mounted her and licked her neck, sucking at the seductive vein. His lips and teeth were itching. He was conflicted between wanting to bite her and wanting to enjoy the taste longer.

Without even realizing it, his hands were already clutching at her breasts. The soft flesh moved at the touch of his fingers. They felt different from the larger ones he had touched before, more like a marshmallow.

“Who are you trying to seduce to wear only this thin piece of cloth to sleep, huh? F*ck, who is this for…?”

Dee didn’t realize that he had said his thoughts out loud. He roughly lifted SoYoon’s T-shirt and placed her breasts in his mouth.

There was a time when he thought they tasted like cream. He had assumed that they would melt inside his mouth. But his tongue was what melted. What a feeling!

He salivated all over SoYoon’s breasts and whimpered. He was so happy that it felt like not only his tongue but his brain was melting. If I were to bite this, how delicious would it be? He bared his teeth but felt the foreboding again and hesitated.

And then his eyes met with SoYoon’s.

“Ack!”

Dee jumped back in fear. The problem was that he was on top of the bed. He grabbed thin air and ended up flopping onto the floor with a crash. He cursed while rubbing his sore bottom. As he did this, his eyes met with SoYoon’s. She was looking down at him from the edge of the bed.

“F*ck! Blondie! You just wait!

Dee ran away, repeating the line of a third-rate villain. SoYoon mumbled in annoyance at being woken up from her nap and cursed at him.

“Why?”

Having run out of SoYoon’s house, Dee felt bothered by a feeling between his legs and so hid in an alleyway. He looked down and found himself aroused. He crouched and buried his face into his knees.

“F*ck, I’m so embarrassed. Why must I be like this for that kind of girl?”

He ranted to no one as his ears turned red.
