Three days passed since Chaeyoung had last seen the other occupants of the headquarters. Aside from Sana who checks her recovery daily and her little sister who brings her food, no one else seems to bother. It was like she was left on her own devices. She never let her guard down anymore though. There will be no repeat of the incident against the woman with the red scarf, she had promised herself.  

And despite Sana's constant reminder that there was no reason to worry about anything while in their care, the young woman still finds it hard to trust her words. It's no easy feat to just bank their safety on strangers after years of relying on herself. Jihyo or anyone truly hasn't exactly been open about her plans on them as well.

She could acknowledge the benefits of staying, she was not stupid. Maybe she was just waiting for an offer or a straightforward request from Jihyo or any member from the group at that point.

A knock on the door then distracted her from her thoughts. Thinking it was just the nurse checking for her daily routine, she shouted to just let herself in. To her surprise, it was not who she was expecting. The woman who walked in was stunningly beautiful with a figure any person would envy and soft-looking long black hair freely flowing on her back. She had a face of an innocent angel but with tempting lips and the irresistible allure of an enchantress.
