Xie Eun stood staring out of the window her fingers clenched in front of her.Just yesterday her father had been sitting here and today he was no more in this world...His funeral had also been finished..Her eyes wanted to tear up but she had no idea how to let them out...Her day had passed in a haze with Si Jing, handling everything and everyone.She felt lost...

Suddenly a pair of arms wound around her,holding her from behind.She turned around in the circle of his arms, assuming it was Si Jing and hugged him tightly.... ​​

The man patted her hair lightly,comforting her and whispered,"It will be alright Eun-a..Be strong..Your father is still here with you in spirit..He would have hated to see you cry!!!"

Xie Eun stilled..It was not Si Jing.It was...Wolf..her husband..Her pliant body turned stiff letting him know that she had mistaken him for someone else. ."Wh..what are you doing here?"

"Why would I not be here? I came to pay my respects to my father in law."

His low voice caused a shiver to go through her body.Xie Eun unexpectedly felt a rush of danger and tried to escape the circle of his arms..but instead if loosening the hold, it seemed to tighten around her..

"I..I have already asked for an annulment."

"Ah..so you still remember that you are married?But little Euna, asking for an annulment is different from getting one...The ink on our marriage certificate is yet to dry and you already have a new fiance?Since that is the case, I have decided to not cooperate with you on this matter..Do you want to tell your dear fiance about how you were forcefully married?But you have kept yourself pure for him?So that he would know that even though you once belonged to another man, he is the only one who has you?Do you want to save your self for Si Jing?"

Her eyes had blazed with each word that was mentioned and for the first time in twenty four hours, Xie Eun came to herself as she retorted,"Yes!Yes I want to give myself to the person I love..."She did not know what had happened to her then to reply so brazenly.

The next minute, her mouth was covered with his.This was a kiss that was unlike the previous enticing and seductive one,this was pure punishment and a way of branding her ,telling her that he was only one who could claim her.

When Wolf had finished his kiss, he looked deeply into her eyes, forcing her to stare at his glittering ones,"Xie Eun-a, you may be a modern person but I am not.My mentor's last wish was that I marry you and I will honor it..I suggest you get rid of your fiance..!"

Xie Eun felt the anger coursing through her.He dared to say this!Gritting her teeth, she said,"What about my wishes?Si Jing is not my fiance..it is only people who have overactive imaginations!And I can force the annulment without you!I will go to the court and tell them that we have not consummated our marriage!I will not accept you as my husband!"

The next moment, Xie Eun had felt her back presses against the wall as Wolf leaned close to her and whispered,"Similarly, I can force you to consummate the marriage and then you can forget about the annulment!Be very clear Eun-a, as long as you are my wife, do not try to cheat me or threaten me..you will find the consequences not to your liking.Now, like you said,you have many aspirations and dreams.I told you that I will not obstruct your way.So I suggest that you start living those dreams after this.And if one of your dreams is Si Jing, then I won't be stopping you from dreaming but I will make sure that he is able to visit you in dream only..after I am done with him.."

Having said his piece, Wolf walked back the way he had come from and would have left when Xie Eun's voice stopped him,"Fine!Will you consider a divorce?I think that should be acceptable to your pride!And if you don't agree to that I will go for divorce by litigation!"

After a best of silence, having successfully accomplished his mission of reenergising and taking her focus off her grief, Wolf gave a small smile and answered,"And how do you hope to do that my dear wife?You don't know my name, how I look like and where your copy of the marriage certificate is?Are you going to to go to the courthouse and tell them that I want a divorce from a nameless person?They will lock you up in a mental institution!Take my suggestion and concentrate on your cameras and lenses..I will come for you when the time is..right..Goodbye."

Yu Seok,who had fallen asleep with Xie Eun in his arms woke up from his recollection of the past and looked at the little girl who was presently drooling on him in her sleep and rubbed his eyes..He had thought that after that she would distance herself from Si Jing,at least to protect the man but instead the man was still stuck to her like a leech!And he even had more leeches sticking to her..He would have to take them off one by one...
