"Where are you going, Selena?" Dan with his cold questioned the cleric.
"It's me who should ask you, where you have been, Dan?" Her voice was flat, not surprised with Dan's appearance, at all.
"Hah…" a sigh escaped Dan's mouth, "I am hiding from that monster, of course. I am sorry," despite his cold voice, he meant it with his words, and Selena knew it well.
"You should not have appeared," Selena suddenly said, causing Dan to stop his steps. He found there was something weird about her, squinting his eyes and scanning the surroundings.
"What do you mean? Also, what are you doing here this late?" Dan suddenly became suspicious of Selena, but he saw the girl was shaking her head.
"I am sorry, Dan," as soon as she finished her words, Dan felt a presence from his behind. He moved his hand to the dagger on his waist and was about to swing the dagger. But a hand gripped his wrist, he never got to reach the dagger until a force pinned him down to the ground.
Dan was shocked and looked back, he got even more shocked when he saw the man's identity pinned him down. That was the monster he had been hiding from.
The assassin immediately looked back at Selena. She just looked down at him with her expressionless face, "You!"
"Yeah, you should not have appeared to meet me," Selena pulled off her mask and showed her real face to Dan, "You should have recognized this face, don't you?"
Dan was Aren's childhood friend, he, of course, knew his friend's past, especially when his best friend was charged with murder and various kinds of charges. That was big news at that time, and he recognized the few surviving villagers who accused Aren.
However, the trial ended up with Aren proved not guilty, and the villagers were compensated for their loss. Dan remembered there was a girl amongst the villagers, that girl was in front of him now.
"Do you want to kill me too because I am Aren's childhood friend?" Dan's voice wavered as he questioned the cleric.
"It's not me who wants to kill you, but My Master," Her voice was emotionless, "You tried to hunt him, so it's natural for him to hunt you too, right?"
"Y-you betrayed us? We have been protecting you for months, battling death and life together, don't you have a feeling for us too?" Despite the cold appearance, Dan was cracked by Selena's betrayal.
"Ah, no wonder Aren never made his move on me, that's because his childhood friend fell for me, right Dan?" Selena came to a realization when she heard those, "Since you are Aren's friend, I never took you guys like my friend too. My purpose in joining your party is to avenge my family."
"You ungrateful B*tch!! I will kill you!" Dan yelled and tried to break free from Tang Shaoyang's grip, but he was too weak for that.
"Alright, that's enough for you two reminiscent of the past," Tang Shaoyang pinned the assassin with his knees while his hand moved to Dan's head. With a strong twist, he twisted Dan's neck.
Despite her resolution for revenge, Selena flinched at the sight. Each time fear tried to engulf her, she would try to recall the past where her mother and sister were killed. She was fighting the fear with her hatred, and that always succeeded, even this time.
Tang Shaoyang stood up and extended his palm to the corpse. Selena saw Dan's corpse vanish in the blink of an eye. She was less surprised and still wondering where the corpse disappeared to.
"What are you doing, come here!" Selena walked toward him. She looked the man in the eyes, but it was hard to read what he was thinking about with her calm expression on his face, but murder was not something new for him, of course.
As she arrived in his range, her waist was circled by his hand, and he brought her with him. He brought her to the old Ropina Village, to the treehouse outside the village. This was their secret spot to meet, but she did not know that the man would look for her the moment she came out of the city.
'That must be because of Dan. He used me as bait to lure Dan out, that was why he asked me to walk instead of taking a carriage,' she thought to herself.
"You are on the verge of breaking down for someone determined to avenge your family," she heard the man speak to him as soon as he released her from his grip.
With his speed, it took then less than ten minutes to reach this treehouse. She rooted on the spot and looked at the man who walked to the bed. This was the place where she lost her virginity.
Tang sat on the edge and looked at her, "You only want to kill Aren for revenge, right?" He asked while taking off the glove and the boot. Selena replied with a nod.
"What about the judge who led the trial for your family murder? If they convicted Aren, you should not be here, thinking about revenge. Maybe you will have a good husband that will spoil you instead of selling your body to a monster like me if they convicted Aren for his crimes, right?" Tang Shaoyang grinned at the girl.
"Are you telling me to kill the judge who led the trial too?" Selena opened her mouth.
"Nah, you said you want to avenge your family, if so the judge should be one of your targets, no?" Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "What I want to tell you is that you have me now. Since you have become mine, I will help you with your revenge too," he shrugged and tapped the bed next to him.
Selena was walking to the bed with the thought of the judge. What he said was not wrong, if the judge did his job she should not be here, and Aren should have died too along with his friends.
She sat next to the man, and he pulled off her cloak that covered her head. She could feel his hand on her waist, "If it's the movie, the man would gently console the girl to win her heart."
He muttered something she did not understand, 'Movie!? What's that?'
"I am not that kind of man, but I will console you with I am the best with," he kissed her, and she responded with a kiss. She let his tongue enter her mouth and played with hers.
She felt the man was about to rip her robe, but she held his hand, "Don't, I don't have the spare with me," Selena then got up and took off the robe by herself.
Behind the loose robe, she wore tight-skin clothes that showed her perfect figure. Without his order, she started to take off her clothes too. She approached Tang and started to help him to undress too.
Soon, both were naked, and Selena sat on his lap. She let him play with her bouncy breasts while holding her moan. To be honest, she did not dislike this, no, in fact, she liked it. Each of his touches would make her forget the harsh reality she had. He drowned her in pleasure.
She closed her eyes and let him lead the play. She let herself drown in pleasure.
