{ Recap of Chapter 3 }

"Is everyone in Inspiria... some sort of magical creature?" I asked.

"Yep." Dongwoo smiled. "Every single one of us."

"Wow." I replied. "So no Inspirian is human?"

All four of them looked at each other. "Well..."

Before anyone could answer, a loud 'ROAR' was heard. I jumped and let out a little shriek. A big flash of grey came across my vision and by the time I could process what I was seeing, there was a handsome boy who had an arm on Sungyeol's shoulder.

"Ya, Myungsoo!" Sungyeol shoved his arm off playfully. "When did you get here?"

"Just now." Myungsoo chuckled. He had furry grey ears and a grey jacket that made his tail almost seem like it wasn't there. "Didn't you see me?" He looked at me. "I know your friend here did."

I lowered my head, blushing at the way the new boy stared at me. His stare was deadly intoxicating... and deadly charismatic.

He chuckled again as he walked over to me. "Annyeong. I'm Myungsoo, but everyone calls me L." He held out a hand.

I performed the Inspirian handshake one more time. "Annyeong, I'm ___." I weakly smiled at him.

"L here, he's the friend who also lives in our house. He's a werewolf." Woohyun said.

"Ah, hyung, you make it sound like I'm scary or something." He looked at me. "I don't change during full moon..." L said, changing into a muscular grey wolf. "I transform whenever I want." He rapidly shrunk back to his human form.

"Omona !" I said, smiling. "That's really cool."

"Thanks." L smirked nicely (if that was possible...). Or maybe it was just a really cold-looking smile. My heart slightly melted on the inside.

I looked at my watch. "Oh my gosh, it's already 6pm!" My gaze turned back to the boys. "I should go back now."

Woohyun pouted. Sungyeol and Dongwoo's faces fell. Hoya and L looked at me.

"Already?" Woohyun said.

I nodded. "My parents will be wondering where I've been."

They brought me to a small door in Hoya and Dongwoo's mountain cave-home.

"This is a direct exit out of Inspiria. It will bring you back to your home." Hoya said.

I nodded. "Will I be able to find you guys the next time I come?"

"Of course !" Dongwoo said. "Now that you've been to Inspiria once, just think of Woohyun, L, and Sungyeol's house when you enter. It'll bring you right there."

"Arasseo." I smiled. "Annyeong." I waved at them.

They all waved back, smiling. I looked at them one last time before entering the portal door.
