I'm The Boss's Secretary?!
Chapter 97 - How A Bite Taste-III
Seoyeon hadn't look well at the place she was in despite its magnificent builds as she was occupied with the look the vampires had given her. It wasn't that she could easily be intimidated by people. She had lived often in the worse place where parents wouldn't want their daughter to ever walk in. But the gazes the vampires gave to her was something no one could ever stand for. It was fierce like the sharp edge of a gleaming blade. At first she thought it was because her mind was filled with the thought that they were vampires and maybe she was correct nevertheless it was hard for her to take a good composure of herself even though she was often the best at it.
Seoyeon lifted her chin up, her black eyes looking first at how high the ceiling was. She had thought that from afar it was an old building of a church and when she entered, she was correct. There were crosses hanged around the place, paintings which was beautiful as if it had been taken by camera and there were also statues kept around the corridors. He eyes then went down, looking at her shoes which was walking on the glimmering floor before she walked and stepped to the red carpet spread on the floor.
To reply to his words, she shook her head and say, "Was it a church?"
"It is." he smiled at her quickness to catch up things. "I know what you think. Is it that weird for a vampire to believe in God?"
As he was having a very honest conversation, she nodded. Vampires killed people from what she heard though she didn't trust it since she had never seen anyone killed before her eyes but Jung Hwa didn't seem to be like a person with mercy and nor did the other vampires seemed too. "I thought they have no God to believe in."
"You're correct." He agreed fast that had her eyes looked at him and her head tilted to her shoulder. "They don't believe in Gods, me and most of people in this room. After all, we are beings that goes against nature." and it was also what Seoyeon thought.
"Is this still use a church?" she asked curiously. She could still see the pictures of angels and cross in the place but she didn't see any priests or nuns in the building. Instead, she could only sense the vampires still stubbornly staring at them.
"It's not. There are no masses other than the crosses, paintings, and altars which had been taken down, this place is no different than a simple building." The reply came as surprising but also understandable to Han Seoyeon's mind. Though she couldn't understand why the vampires would choose a church to built their own place.
"Confused?" he asked. Seoyeon honestly replied with a nod and took the time to explain, "Centuries ago this place were created by a certain pureblood vampire. As he was a pureblood vampire he had a longer lifetime even more than humans. He began to live here for centuries until he found a woman he love, had a child and live for another couple of decades."
That sounds like a good story which consisted of a calm peaceful life, thought Seoyeon. She thought the story would rather be gruesome as it was a building where a vampire lived in but it turns out the person who lived here before was no different than human. Marrying a woman, having a child and peacefully living together, it was a warm story.
But as soon as Seoyeon praised the story to be warm-hearted, she was quickly betrayed.
Jung Hwa continued, "Then one day as he lived with his families a certain group of people rebelled against him."
"Rebelled?" asked Seoyeon with her brows raised.
Jung Hwa nodded, "Long before humans and vampires lived together, most vampires work in upper class, instructing humans who live in the world." Seoyeon was surprised to know that there was time where humans and vampires lived together because only until she meet Jung Hwa did she know vampires existed. There was also no documentation of vampires in the past and even if there was, she doubt herself would believe the news.
Her black eyes shifted from the corner of the corridors she had been seeing and moved toward him to ask, "Then what happened to the vampire family?"
"What do you think happened?" he asked and she noticed the grin tilting his smile that didn't seem to be very good. When she replied to his question with a shook of her head, he continued, "The group of people surrounded the house. Vampires are strong when it come to pure power compared to humans but when humans grouped they defeated the pureblood vampire by numbers and plan. They had been planning to kill the vampire family for a very long time with a very well written plan to hunt for their lives. The humans didn't discriminate on who to kill. His children was staked to death before they burnt him to death and his wife was killed in front of his eyes, there was also rumors that the humans raped his wife first before killing him."
Han Seoyeon felt bad and sympathy to the vampire family and he could see the sadness hovering over the girl's pure and innocent inky eyes. She looked at him and ask, "Why do they have to kill them?" From what she heard the vampires family seemed to be living in piece. She couldn't see the reason to kill them unless they did something they deserve but even if they do deserve to be killed, they didn't deserve the death in such a fashion. That was too horrible.
"Fear, sweetheart." Jung Hwa explained. He knew that as soon as Han Seoyeon entered the vampires society she would have to discard her innocent thought for her own best interest. "When humans fear power, they would do anything to topple the fear they have. Vampires have power and they fear that one day the vampires would kill them and choose to kill before it happened. Think of it as such, one day you are living amongst lions, a human would fear them, afraid that you would be eaten soon as their food. Before that wouldn't you kill the lion?"
"I would not." Seoyeon replied with her eyes staring back at him that he found to be sparkling.. "They didn't harm me nor will I harm them."
Seoyeon lifted her chin up, her black eyes looking first at how high the ceiling was. She had thought that from afar it was an old building of a church and when she entered, she was correct. There were crosses hanged around the place, paintings which was beautiful as if it had been taken by camera and there were also statues kept around the corridors.
