She had always lived a privileged life under the care of her father, a wealthy businessman and the head of one of the country's largest financial companies. Since her mother’s passing, she had become the center of his world, and he fulfilled her every wish without hesitation. Despite being pampered, she remained kind and obedient, loved by everyone around her.
That day, she walked out of school, expecting to find her driver waiting as usual. But there was no sign of the familiar luxury car. She frowned and called the driver, only to find his phone turned off. With no other option, she decided to walk home.
The street was eerily quiet, the evening air cool against her skin. She walked confidently, wondering why her driver hadn't shown up. But suddenly, a strange feeling crept over her… as if someone was following her. She turned quickly but saw nothing. Swallowing nervously, she continued walking, but then she heard it again—footsteps, quick and growing closer.
Before she could react, a figure emerged from the shadows. His appearance was terrifying—glowing red eyes, lips stained with traces of blood. She barely had time to process what she was seeing before he lunged at her with unnatural speed, grabbing her and pinning her violently against the trunk of a large tree.
"Don’t scream..." he whispered coldly, his eyes locked onto hers as she trembled.
