The brunette slept soundly, not a noise escaping her lips. Hovering above her was a male figure just as quiet as the young woman, but menacing and deadly. The man took the unused pillow on the other side of her double bed and instantly pressed it down into her face with the force of adrenaline put to ill use. At first the woman continued to sleep, but moments later the man that had chosen to straddle his victim could feel her start to squirm beneath him. He felt her head move underneath the pillow, trying to shake free of the might pushing down on her; the assailant put more pressure on the woman’s face, keeping her body restrained under his so as not to allow her any chance of escape. When the writhing of the woman ceased, the man waited another few minutes in that position to bring her sweetly into death, then stood up, gazing down at her limp, warm corpse.   

A large hand the face of the brunette as another one brought a knife to her cheek. The softness of her skin compelled the man to dig his fingernails into her, the squishiness of the flesh beneath bringing a smile to the man’s face. He so badly wanted to see inside of her.

Chapter 14: So this certainly took me by surprise! Oh my. I must admit my concern is all over the place: from Hongbin's condition, to Hyeran's current state, to Taekwoon's advances rapidly reaching new heights.

Glad I took some time to get updated with the story, and again, all the best with future updates!
