THE BLOODY RING

15

"Your grandmother.the mother of your father, it was the youth who had betrothed you to me" Ryu said.

Grandma? the mother of my father? but mother and father said that the father's family did not approve of them and also did not acknowledge me as their grandson, why would he casually say that I was Ryu's fiancee?! Ketusku in my heart, feeling upset because all this time my father's family was never there for me and now I have to face a man who claims he is my fiancee since I was born.

But there are things that make me confused, why did Grandma match me with a demon? Is he not sane? marrying his granddaughter to a demon? or did Grandma need money to sell me that she didn't admit to?

Question after question continued to be thrown in my mind, I looked at Ryu with a slightly shocked and questioning look.

"Why did that grandma sell me to you who wasn't part of my race?" Askaqua.

"Not part of your race? You mean human race?" Ask Ryu.

"Yes, did you give Grandma that much money just like you bought me at an auction last night?" My interrogation was with Ryu.

"Hahahaha.you're really sweet Hyorin.." Ryu said as he ruffled my head to make my hair a little messy.

I clasped Ryu's hand to stop the action, my annoyance getting on my face.

"Your father is not Hyorin's man, he is the same demon as me" Ryu said, adding to my shock.

"What do you mean?!" I asked to feel displeased with Ryu's words just now.

"Your father is a red fox demon, he left the demon world and married your human mother. You are half fox demon and half human.." Clearly Ryu.

I'm half the demon red fox? how is it possible? dad never told me that, even I don't have a tail. I said in my heart.

"No way..." My objection.

I stared fixedly at Ryu looking for the real answer, but the look on Ryu's face said that it was real.

"Haha... How could I be half a fox demon? stop joking with me..." I said again feeling very unsure.

"I'll take you to your Grandma when you've recovered, I'm just a little late to take you with me until you experience those horrible things" Ryu said as he stared at my body filled with vampire bite scars a few days ago.

I pulled the blanket up high and covered the marks, the pain was still slightly felt in my body.

"For what if I don't want to meet that grandma?" I asked Ryu with confidence.

"I'll take you to him anyway, so you can receive all the rights..."

"I don't need any of that!!" I cut Ryu's words.

"I don't want that right, I.." My words came to a halt as I recalled the memories of my parents.

My tears flowed down my cheeks, sadness enveloped me.

"He never met me even once when both my parents died, he didn't come to see me or save me. Even just to ask me the news he never did, and now you want me to accept all of your words?!! NO!!" My words denied accepting the fact that Ryu would take me to my Grandma.

Even though I miss a family, but in this heart I hate my father's family so much. Moreover at this moment, his presence that was so sudden made my heart even more painful.

"I think you should calm yourself down first, I'll leave you to think calmly" Ryu said, then got up and turned and left.

When Ryu had begun to approach the door my crying began to stop because I saw one by one the white and thick Ryu tail also popped up a lot to even number ten, his ears began to form high above his head. The tails looked very soft and danced in her footsteps, Ryu stopped and turned around a little as if he wanted to look at me. But he did not do so, Ryu again walked until he vanished behind a tightly closed door.

"Grandmother..? I guess not..." My speech.

My mind has returned to Mr. Vilan, for these two days Mr. Vilan must have been looking for me.

If it says family, then Mr. Vilan is what I deserve to call family because he is the one who has been there for me all along. It wasn't Grandma that even her face I didn't know it was, then why now should I meet her after all this? there's no reason for me to meet someone who never cared about me, I don't want to meet him! My ketus in my heart was very upset.

"Now what should I do? even to escape this time I don't know which way to go..." Mumbles.

I got out of bed and walked to the balcony of the room, the view outside the room was beautiful and fresh to calm my mind and also my feelings were chaotic.

the sun has been in the direction of two o'clock, the heat of the weather is quite stinging if too long standing outdoors. I looked for a chair for me to sit down for a moment and contemplate everything that has happened to this day, everything happened very suddenly and left me a little in shock.

From a waitress who poisoned me, to my kidnapping to my auction. And now that I'm sitting in this house as a fiancee, it feels like a nightmare.

"Is Mr Vilan not looking for me? why hasn't he picked me up until now?!" Ketusku.

"Haaaaa~aaa...!! Just a few days I went to another realm, now my life story changes a lot. I either had to cry or be thankful for being the fiance of a rich man who bought me a huge sum of money..." Saying myself.

I lowered my head and looked at my body, Are all these holes able to close and heal? won't it leave a mark? if only Mr. Vilan were here...

I immediately shook my head, warning myself not to look weak.

"Why do I expect someone else's fiancee to save me? that Miss Claudia is going to be even more angry with me and will soon order another Vampire to kill me, I should not be thinking about Mr. Vilan at this time but rather think about my own safety" It is clear to myself that I continue to expect the presence of Mr. Vilan.

I got up from my seat and went back into the room, now my body again felt very tired.My legs began to feel like a flexible jelly-jelly with no bones, no bones, I don't think my body has completely recovered and it still needs a lot of rest.

I walked towards the bed and returned in my sleeping position, longing for Mr. Vilan's embrace behind my back as I fell asleep.

Wait...!! Why do I keep thinking about Mr. Vilan when I'm not with him..? does this mean I have feelings for Mr Vilan??

No.... no.. no... it's impossible right? I rebut in my heart while shaking my head, feeling less certain and impossible.

I kept thinking until my face became blustery like a boiled crab because of the shame of my own thinking.

"Likes..? Love...??" My speech.
