Taeyeon was crying her heart out as she struggling alone on the floor. Yoona and Sooyoung, who happened to be there, were trying their best to break the invisible circle that protects Taeyeon. It happened so sudden they were clueless about what to react. The other girls were already at the training chamber, leaving the three of them who were unlucky enough to wake up late.

“What in the world is happening?!” yelled Taecyeon the moment he caught the unbelievable scene. Without wasting any second, Yoona grabbed his hand and spilling everything she witnessed. He thanked his guts for telling him to check on the girls who are increadibly late for training.

Taeyeon seems to be pulled by unknown force, making her sweats all over as her voice become hoarse. Her energy had been drained out and by the looks on her pale face; she might be unconscious any moment if they cannot break the wall to help her.

A distinct step on the stairs was becoming louder. It only took a second for the door to creaks open and reveals the worried Wooyoung.

“Hev yu Vhaa!” He raised his palm on the air and moved closer to the dying Taeyeon. A sudden breeze approached them as Wooyoung mumbled his chant three times leaving the other froze on their position. Taecyeon quickly motioned Yoona and Sooyoung to step away.

“Is Von Haske!” Another familiar voice joins Wooyoung. Nichkhun came running earlier and stood beside Wooyoung who seems intimidated by the strong force that kept Taeyeon inside. Fortunately Nichkhun who has deeper knowledge in spells came by.

The breeze wind minute ago swirls up and slowly forming a huge tornado before it crashed upon the weak Taeyeon. All of them were forced to closed their eyes as an intensely beaming light escaped from Taeyeon’s necklace. The bright light blew up, causing them to fall on the floor.

"I should have known." muttered Nichkhun before leaving the scene.

                      The news of what happened to Taeyeon that morning spread quickly throughout the castle. Maids were assigned by the words of The High King to take a very good care of Taeyon who is still laying weakly. Whilst the other girls had completed their half-a-day training and now gathered in the dining hall for dinner. The huge wooden table covered in metamorphic rock pentelic marble has forteen seats along with it. All of them took a seat as the maids serve them their dinner.

"Have you deliver dinner to Taeyeon yet?" asked Seohyun to a guy that happened to be the only one male maid. He bowed a little bit before nodding off accompanied with a shy smile. He excused himself before vanishing into the kitchen.

The atmosphere at the dining hall was beyond awkward. The only sound that could be heard was the clutters of utensils and the sound of people chewing their food off. Nichkhun who seems a little anxious since that morning was the first to finish eating and stand up.

"But there will be dessert soon, Nichkhun-shi." muttered Sunny. Nichkhun politely excused himself and walked away without making any eye contacts. Yoona stood up the second he opened the door, taking her steps following Nichkhun from behind. 

"Are they kind of dating or what?" blurted the curious Jessica without thinking twice. Se
