Eunji stood three arm lengths away from Johnny but she could smell the sickness off him. His body looked a bit thinner than last time she saw him and his black hair was greasy and messy. His eyes were dilated and his body was twitchy from whatever he was coming down off or high on. He never looked this bad but Eunji figured that because she wasn’t there for him to lean on and had no money to cover up his other problems.

She stood her ground and glanced at the mirror wall and felt relieved that her eyes didn’t shift or her ears didn’t become furry, yet. Her attention returned to Johnny, who was smiling and trying to hide the mess he was. 

“Eunji, love, where have you been?” He said and Eunji narrowed her eyes as he walked over to her. When he went to touch her cheek she carefully slapped it away, while she wanted to rip him apart but her logical mind saw only trouble if they found his body here now.

Starlight growled in argument for a moment but quieted from seeing her logic and waited. “We are not lovers, I kicked you out of my heart and life.” Eunji hissed and flashed her teeth with her scowl. Starlight hissed in agreement with Eunji and was ready to shift if Eunji changed her mind.

‘He’s not in our heart, Lucy is living in it now.’ Eunji thought and she could feel Starlight happily yelp at that thought. Eunji now looked up at Johnny and remembered he was at least six feet tall but with a string bean body type, which was thinner now.

Eunji could see the rage raise in Johnny’s face and grabbed her shoulders firmly, “You are mine, you belong to me.” He said loudly, not yet a yell and Eunji figure he didn’t want to draw other people there.

“I am not yours and I know the truth.” Eunji hissed and grabbed both of his wrists. This time she wasn’t as gentle as squeeze and twisted his wrists and he winced in pain before his eyes widened from snapping of bone.

Eunji felt a rush of warmth from the bone break and Johnny went to his knees as she squeezed more. “You paid your drug dealer buddy to spike our drinks. Probably though the drug you use would kill me, right?” Eunji hissed and stared down at Johnny but he was looking down. “LOOK AT ME!”

He snapped up his face to look at her and his eyes widened in an unsettling fear. Eunji figured her eyes had shifted and she had felt her fangs grow larger and sharper. She wanted to rip off his face with her fangs but stopped and pushed him onto his back.

Starlight hissed in displeasure and told her to end him, ‘Toxic, no good to feed on him…too public too.’ Eunji thought as she watched Johnny trying to crawl away from her. Starlight quieted before letting out a small huff as she reluctantly agreed with Eunji’s words.

Eunji couldn’t understand what Johnny was babbling in fear and she stalked after him as he crawled away. Once he hit the wall at the end of the hall and used it to stand up to his feet. “T-This isn’t r-real…s-stay away.” Eunji was finally able to understand his words. 

“Oh this is real and some people have some qu-” Eunji was cut off when a pair of female hands phased through the wall behind Johnny. The hands look very soft and the nails on them were sharp and painted bright red. The right ring finger had a tattoo black ring and the left pinkie and ring finger was missing.

The hands grabbed Johnny and pulled him through the wall. Eunji rushed to Johnny and tried to grab anything. She was able to grab something and as she pulled she put a foot on the wall. It felt like minutes that she pulled but she knew it was only for a few seconds before the force pulling Johnny suddenly stopped.

The moment it happened something wet splashed her face and it smelt like iron. The sudden lack of resistance made Eunji land on her ass and she was stunned from what happened. 

Once the stun washed away she looked down to what she grabbed and saw she was able grab Johnny’s wrists, which she was still in her hands but not attached to Johnny. In a panic she tossed them to the wall and saw what made her wet was his blood. 

She was breathing heavily and trying to calm down, luckily Starlight was equally confused, so it was easier to calm. Once calm she looked at the body parts she was holding before and the arms were cut at the elbow.

The cut was very clean and the blade must be very sharp to make such a cut. Maybe a guillotine-like blade could have done it and Eunji wasn’t the only thing covered in blood, that wall had blood on it too.

“How the fuck am I going explain this?” Eunji asked and froze as she heard the clicking of heels moving fast but not running. Eunji tried to rush to her feet but stopped when she felt familiar hands on shoulders.

“Calm malen'kaya lisa, it's me,” Alina’s voice whispered, looking down at Eunji. Eunji could see Alina’s relief in seeing she was okay, “Explain, your silence spell is still up.”

Eunji was confused about a silence spell but shook it off and told Alina everything that happened after Eunji left the bathroom. Alina nodded with every word but stopped her when she mentioned hands phasing through the wall.

Alina walked to the wall close to the bathroom, “Like this?” Alina asked as her hand went through the wall like the hands. Eunji nodded and Alina sighed, “A wraith breed…female with small hands and missing fingers.”

“Someone you know?” Eunji asked and Alina shook her head. “Is it a rare breed like me?”

“Similar, a bloodline breed, more common in families that come from Russia and Germany." Alina explained before pulling hand out of the wall. “Keep going with what happened.”

Eunji nodded to finish off the events of what happened and once Eunji finished, Alina pulled out her cell phone to call someone. “Speak to no one else, I am your lawyer.” Alina said as used one hand to help Eunji to her feet and dialed with the other hand. “This is going to be long and will take a few hours.”

“Sorry, I should have just wa-” Eunji was cut off with Alina putting a single finger on her lips. Eunji closed her mouth and Alina moved her hand to cup the side of Eunji’s face. Eunji let out a sigh and relaxed her shoulders as she didn’t feel any rage pointed towards her.

“Good girl, now no more until we are safe in the mansion.” Alina said as put the phone to her ear. “Let me do all the talking as that is my job as the pack’s lawyer.”

Eunji let out a loud sigh as lay on her back on the grass of a small glade in the artificial forest under the mansion and she stared at the fake night sky. She had repeated her story to Juno and Eva three times after police tried to grind information out of her, but thankfully Eunji didn’t say a word while Alina did her magic as a lawyer.

“I hear you did your first magic today.” Rose’s voice said and Eunji stayed lying there as Rose got closer. Rose’s face leaned over Eunji’s face and gave her a soft smile. “A silence spell is the simplest and most common spell among spell users.”

Rose moved to sit beside Eunji and Eunji closed her eyes as she felt Rose start petting her head. “I didn’t mean to do it and I don’t know why I did it or what a silence spell is.” Eunji said finally and Rose chuckled.

“To prevent your prey from screaming for help.” Rose simply said and stopped her hand. “Remember, you are Kumiho, one of few spell casters among the Lycan breeds. So it may have been Starlight that casted the spell.”

Eunji opened her eyes and heard movement but didn’t move as she could smell it was Maria in her wolf form. She felt a very warm and heavy weight laid beside her, opposite the side that Rose sat on. “Hey Maria.” Eunji said and raised one hand to rub her side.

“Do you want to try to shift in your beast form or do you just want to keep lying there?” Rose asked and Eunji let out a large sigh. She could feel Starlight hiding inside her mind and not in the mood to run around.

“No, neither of us wish to run around tonight.” Eunji explained as started to sit up. “But if I’m going to lay around, it should be in my bed…maybe with an old book.”

Rose nodded and kissed the top of Eunji’s head before she fully got up onto her feet. “Have a good sleep, our little fox.” Rose whispered and Maria let out a happy chuff sound.

Eunji went back to her room and flopped onto her bed face first and arms stretched out. She had showered when she got back to the mansion but she felt like she needed another one, more to relax under the water. ‘Water is the great cleanser of the soul.’ Starlight whispered in Eunji's mind.

She got up from the bed and walked into the attached bathroom to her room. Eunji easily slipped out of her sweat pants and loose shirt, she didn’t bother putting on underwear after her first shower. She paused as she looked in the mirror and she looked worn down from events today.

Her hand trailed down her stomach and stopped at her small gemini constellation tattoo on the right side of her pelvis. ‘I’m really a gemini now, eh?’ She thought and remembered that Lucy got a similar tattoo at the same time but hers was the aquarius constellation.

Eunji paused, “Huh, guess the change didn’t get rid of my tattoos.” She said as spun around to look at her back. She could see her back tattoo of  one red and one black koi fish swimming in circles and it was perfectly fine. “Wonder when others got their tattoos…”

She shook her head and jumped into the shower to let hot water pour over her. She closed her eyes and started to think over what happened today. A piece of her was disappointed in not killing Johnny on the spot but also relieved that she held control not to kill him as they needed information from him.

Eunji started to think back when she told the story to Eva and Juno and their reaction to the description of the hands or more Juno’s reaction rather than Eva's. Juno was puzzled as if she was thinking of a list of Wraith breeds and none of them matching. “She muttered something about the old world packs after the second time I told it…” Eunji whispered to herself.

She finally let out a groan as slicked her hair back, “Lycan politics are at play here…” Eunji remembered each member of the pack told her it would be best if she didn’t dive deeply into Lycan politics and aimed to live her life without worrying about it.

She felt even more frustrated now and slammed the shower off. “I’ve got to stop thinking about this…for my own sake.” She muttered and got out of the shower. Eunji grabbed a fresh towel and dried off before walking out of the bathroom. 

She had the towel hanging on her neck and there was a small cat call whistle from her bed causing Eunji to look at her bed. Sitting on the edge of the bed was Lucy and she was looking Eunji up and down. “Hello there, Love~” Lucy cooed. “I heard someone had a long and stressful day because of the police.”

If Eunji wasn’t tired and frustrated, she would probably be blushing deep red and trying to cover herself up but instead she just walked over to Lucy. She leaned down and kissed Lucy’s lips softly, “You look over dressed for bed.” Eunji whispered before throwing her towel to the ground and crawling onto her bed.

Eunji lay on her back with her hands on her stomach, one knee bent and had her turned to the side to watch Lucy. Lucy stood up as she looked over her shoulder and gave Eunji a wink before giving her a strip tease show.  Eunji’s eyes locked onto Lucy’s back old school style tattoo of a cross and roses and felt uneasy seeing the bullets ruining the art on her back.

Lucy finished removing her clothing and crawled onto the bed to be over Eunji. Eunji leaned her head back as Lucy leaned down and started to kiss her neck. She let out a happy sigh from Lucy’s soft lips slowly kissing trailed down and Eunji shivered when Lucy stopped at her pelvis tattoo.

Eunji bit her lower lip and moved her hands to touch Lucy’s soft blonde hair. She saw Lucy smirk before moving to Eunji’s legs and Eunji didn’t fight Lucy when she did so. Eunji let out a small gasp as Lucy’s tongue started to pleasure her and Eunji moved her legs to rest on Lucy’s shoulder.

All the frustration and stress left Eunji’s mind from Lucy’s love and her mind no longer lingered on the day's events. Eunji was careful with her grip on Lucy’s hair and started to arc her back as Lucy deepen tongue into Eunji. She let out a loud gasp as Lucy lightly bit Eunji’s clitoris and Eunji felt a warm rush of relief as she climaxed.
