"Adrik... what does it say?" This time her voice was a bit hoarse.
Adrik let out a sigh and smiled pessimistically at her as he dropped the file beside him on the bed. "Little wife-"
"What does it say?" She gazed intently at him as she asked, in an anxious voice.
"Negative..." Adrik pinched between his brows and lifted his eyes when he saw Leia hurriedly grab the file from the bed and furiously flip through it. The moment her eyes fell on the part where the result was inscribed, her body stilled.
Her hands, which were holding onto the paper, began to tremble violently, and her eyes vigorously fluttered. She stared at the paper with a lost expression on her face, and Adrik's expression altered in apprehension. He raised his hands to touch her, but Leia slowly began to stand up from the bed.
The documents slipped from her hand and fell to the floor, scattering.
'Negative! Negative!' This word kept reverberating in her head, and something began to change within her.
The temperature of the room started to change, and slowly she took steps back, with her head hung low, creating a distance between her and Adrik.
Adrik's brow furrowed deeply at her action, and he stood up from the bed, proceeding to walk towards her. However, he was yet to get close to her when Leia unexpectedly lifted her head and he immediately flinched back.
His lashes blinked in confusion, and his eyes narrowed. He stared intently at her, only to realize that her pitch-black eyes were now completely red. "Leia..." Adrik whispered in shock and commenced to move towards her, but she raised her hand, stopping him in his tracks. "Do not approach me!" She emphasized her every word, leaving Adrik completely dumbfounded.
"All those times, I was living with a lie..." Adrik, who was about to move towards her regardless of what she said, halted on his step when he heard her murmur and gazed intently at her.
"I have been living in darkness! With lies! " The pitch of her voice rose a bit, and vigorous air blew around the room.
"I asked her, Mum, is he really my father? But she told me yes! She lied to me!" Her hand balled into a tight fist and her body began to twitch. "She had me live with a stranger who was in no way related to me and kept quiet as I saw him as my father."
Her breathing became unsteady and an unknown wind gradually began to blow in circles within the room.
"I thought she loved me! But she didn't! It was all a lie!!!" Adrik's pupils dilated to the size of saucers. He immediately turned to Leia, and his body shuddered in uneasiness. "Leia sto-"
"She watched him hit me!! She watched him humiliate me in front of the whole class in school, but she never uttered a single word but ALWAYS SHUT ME UP!!!" As though her anger arose to a whole new level, the objects that rose into the air began to whirl in a circle and the curtains fluttered vigorously.
"Leia, sto-." Adrik moved towards her to stop her, but a strenuous violent wind suddenly erupted from nowhere and sent him flying. Almost about to hit the wall, he caught his balance and fell to the floor on his knees.
His eyes fluttered in disbelief, and he raised his gazes, filled with skepticism, to stare at her.
Leia's body vibrated uncontrollably in fury, and her fingers began to elongate. Her red eyes darkened and looked so bloody.
The wind whirling up above her, together with the objects that rose into mid-air, began to violently swirl around her, and everything within the room began to break.
"He locked me up for 7 months and never allowed me to set my eyes on the broad daylight, but what did she do? She kept quiet!!!" Her fangs forcefully stretched out, and as though something burst forth from her, she fell to the floor and fire unexpectedly lit up within the room, surrounding her in a circle.
"Fire!" Adrik's eyes fluttered in both shock and disbelief, and he stood motionless, staring at the scene.
Leia, who was within the fire, twitched violently, and deep hate and fury burned within her. The only things that clouded her mind were anger, lies, and hate.
Her fingers malevolently scratched the floor in a rage, and before Adrik, who was staring at her, could snap back to reality, the fire spread a bit further.
He immediately stood up from the floor and proceeded to rush towards her to stop her. However, as though noticing him, the fire rose up and violently rushed towards him, almost consuming him.
Adrik flinched away, dodging the attack, and breathed heavily. How is this possible? ....His brow furrowed in disbelief, and his hands balled into tight fists. No one needed to tell him anymore, as he had already figured out what she was.
His fingers stretched out and his canines elongated. His white furs emerged on his body, and he transformed into a half-wolf, half-human.
Without any hesitation or thinking, he rushed towards the fire and jumped in, dodging the violent flames that dashed towards him.
He rolled to the floor as he fell into the fire, and the moment he raised his eyes to stare at Leia, he nearly jolted back.
Opposite him, Leia knelt with her bloodshot eyes gazing hatefully at him. It was as though if he didn't disappear from her sight, she would tear him into pieces.
"Little wife... it's me, Adrik." He said it to her in a tender voice, and she breathed heavily. It was as though she did not know who he was at that moment. Everything she stared at was a lie to her and hate burned furiously within her.
"Little wife, please, you have to stop. You are destroying everything. Please, I beg you." Adrik implored with a pleading expression on his face. However, expecting her to at least listen to him, Leia turned around and suddenly disappeared, as though she was never there in the first place.
Adrik's eyes widened in shock, and he glanced around him only to realize that the fire was no longer burning and the objects were all falling to the floor.
