Kreme who had been standing at the front of the door saw the butler approach and turned to face the butler completely.

"Master will be arriving soon. Please take a seat in the drawing-room," the butler suggested. Kreme looked slightly tensed, he wished to wait here for the councilman, nonetheless he followed the house butler, "Would you like to drink something, tea or water?"

"No, I am fine," Kreme replied back to see the butler bow and leave him alone in the wide room. When Jungkook finally arrived, Kreme stood up out of habit and Jungkook waved for him to sit down.

"What is it, Kreme? You visited last evening. If you visit these many times I will mistake that you are in love and can't get enough of me," the associate councilman felt sweat break, smiling nervously as he didn't know how to respond to councilman Jeon's words. This narcissist vampire whom he worked for was he trying to imply that he swung to the other side of the sex? "What did you come here for?" the man raised one brow of his in question.

Kreme looked at the door and then at Jungkook, "Speak freely," he heard Jungkook say and he nodded his head.

"It is the witch...she isn't there anymore."

Jungkook narrowed his eyes, "Elaborate further."

"The black witch who we stationed in the village is not there, she must have escaped and there has been quite some commotion for a few hours and I couldn't go to take a look at the house," Kreme filled him with the report, "I looked for her but she wasn't to be found anywhere. The forest has no trails."

Jungkook didn't speak another word and turned around to open the door, "Let's go there and see what is up then. Get the carriage ready," he said stepping out of the room and the younger man quickly nodded following him and taking a left to head towards the hallways.

Going up the stairs and to his room, he pulled open the door to catch sight of Lisa  who was standing in front of the window. Since the time she had fallen off the balcony of the room, he locked the door in his absence. Not that she went there but it was better to keep her safe than have the incident be repeated again.

———-

After Jungkook had left the room, Lisa  finally stepped out of the bathroom. Looking around her eyes fell on the fireplace where she added the log of wood in the fireplace and went to stand at the window which faced the other side of the forest. Looking at the forest which stretched to the other lands. The lush greenery which was relaxing to one's eyes. With Jisoo  who had taught her the basic education where she had been busy lately, Lisa  had been stuck in the room with nowhere else to go when Jungkook was not there.

She didn't get to step out of the mansion or anywhere away from it and if she did it was only in Jungkook's presence. Since the time the maid was killed the maids steered clear of her. Their speech was short and maybe the butler was the only one whom she could speak to. The incident only made her wonder as to what she had to do to bear something so harsh as death. It was still a mystery as to which family member had ordered the maid to push her.

Lisa  had felt the hand on her shoulder and there was also a mark. But she found it strange that as she fell, she didn't see the person who had pushed her. She should have been able to see the person right? She found it rather difficult to wrap her mind with everything that was going on.

It was as if coming to Jeon's mansion and meeting Jungkook was opening the locks that were placed on her life. Things she wasn't aware of were coming to light one after another and she was still trying to deal with it. Thinking back to what had been running on her mind, her thoughts went back to what she was and what was around her. A white witch with certain memories erased which was returning back but to be blurred.
