Hobin leaned back against his chair. The light above them was illuminating Seokhyun's face and Hobin was taking a good look at the suspect.

To the untrained eyes, Seokhyun would look like a mild mannered timid servant doing his job but that was an illusion. He was working as a humble servant to hide his bloodlust. He was hiding himself in plain view, knowing very well that the cops would ignore him and go for all those who were directly involved with Rachel.

Who would suspect a poor servant who was doing his job?

"You left the party at 7:30 PM," Hobin stated. "Was it to kill Rachel?"

"Kill?" Seokhyun mused. He was silent for a while before he let out a cackle.

"Kill? No, no doctor! I wouldn't was to kill Miss Rachel!" he wheezed. "I could have killed her anytime but I didn't. I had many chances. I just wanted to see what was beneath her pretty face…"

His slightly yellowed teeth were flashing under the light and a sinister look overcame the youth as he spoke.

"I was curious about what will happen if I take off her mask," Seokhyun went on. "She wore many. The mask of being the most beautiful girl. The mask of pride and arrogance. I saw them all. I wanted to take off that mask and see what lies beneath."

"And what did you find?" Hobin asked.

Soekhyun was pondering the answer for a while, staring into Hobin's eyes without blinking.

"Just a weak little girl who craves attention," Soekhyun grinned. "Pathetic. I'm disappointed. I thought that we shared the same mind and face. Turns out, she's a nobody."

"Tell me about your fascination with Rachel," Hobin quietly ordered. Seokhyun grinned at him.

Outside, Jina and Jiwoon were watching the monitor carefully. The poltergeist was thankfully nowhere in sight partly because she still did not know that her killer was caught.

"Can he make this guy confess?" Jiwoon asked.

"It seems like the guy wants to confess," Jina stated. "He's not even denying that he killed her."

"He gives me the creeps," Jiwoon muttered. "Is it me or...or is he really apathetic to what he did?"

"God knows," Jina said. They held their breaths as they watched the monitor.

"I was always fascinated by her…" Seokhyun began.

*Few Months Ago*

"Seokhyun!" Hana called for the pasty looking youth who had joined them. She was wandering all around the mansion, searching for Seokhyun. Her temper was only increasing because the new boy was always daydreaming or doing something else other than work.

"Soekhyun!" she shouted, heading for the front entrance. "Seok-"

Her eyes fell on the main gate. Outside it, a thin man was feeding a stray German Shepherd whom he had sort of adopted.

"Seokhyun!" she called him as she approached the boy. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Ratty was hungry," Seokhyun mumbled. "I'm just feeding him."

Hana took a look at the ferocious looking dog which was slightly growling at her. The dog roamed around their street a lot and was quite dangerous. But after Seokhyun adopted it, the dog seemed to listen to him a lot and was almost domesticated.

"He reminds me of my first pet, Sada," Seokhyun went on. "I trained him for many years before he died. The orphanage matron threw his corpse away. Didn't even let me say goodbye…"

"Well hurry up and go inside!" Hana snapped at him. "The young miss will return from school any moment and you won't be able to clean her room afterwards! Go!"

Seokhyun meekly nodded and slowly staggered back into the mansion. He had been working with the Song's for a few months and was in charge of cleaning all the rooms. The rooms were cleaned on a rotational basis every week because it was not possible to clean all of them in one day. The mansion was too big for it.

On week one, the servants were in charge of cleaning the bedrooms upstairs, week two was for the guest rooms and living room and on week three, they cleaned the study rooms, garden and basement. Today, Seokhyun was in charge of cleaning Rachel's room.

Most servants avoided going there whenever Rachel was home because she wanted complete privacy. Since her parents were always out or ignorant, they did not care what she did there. The servants knew that she snuck in her boyfriends time to time and stayed locked up in her room for long hours with them. Sometimes, the boys even spent a night at the mansion without the parents knowing.

Seokhyun slowly made his way towards Rachel's room which was on the upper floor of the mansion. The room was plastered with sky blue wallpaper and had a wide balcony which Rachel kept closed most of the time. Her king sized bed was adorned with maroon blankets and cushions and there was an adjacent room where Rachel studied or spent her leisure time in.

He first went to the study where he was cleaning her mahogany desk. When he was wiping her laptop with a dry cloth, he accidentally turned it on. To his slight surprise, an explicit video was beginning to play.

"Ahh...ahhh...ahhhh!" Rachel was moaning in the video but the guy who was banging her was not her boyfriend. Seokhyun knew who her boyfriend was so he did not recognize the boy. Curious, he moved the mouse and opened a file where there were several such videos. Some had Rachel while the other ones featured different girls with the same boy.

"Are you recording this?" Rachel was panting in one video. "Make sure to blur my face when you sell it!"

She was riding the boy cowboy style and was completely naked. Her arrogant mask had fallen and now, she was a dominant force who was controlling the boy beneath her. She put him under her mercy, doing whatever she wanted with his body.

Something triggered Seokhyun as he watched the videos. No, it was not the porn which enticed him. It was Rachel who was interesting. All these months, he did not care much about her and she was nothing more to him than his employer.

But now that she was fucking another guy like a cheap slut, Seokhyun was interested to know what was she hiding behind her mask. Was it her usual arrogance? Or was she more dominant? The sight of her flushed yet victorious face as she rode the boy was making Seokhyun leer. She was the princess who was untouchable and unreachable. A taboo thought.

And yet, he wanted to touch that taboo only to see what she was worth. Would she show him the same look when he would bring her to his mercy? Or would she show him something more? What was her true face? The snooty princess who was cruel to all? Or was she this dominant who wanted to control everything in her grasp?

"WHAT THE FUCK?" Rachel yelled when she saw the lowly servant in her study. Seokhyun did not jump in fright but stepped back, his face impassive.

"How dare you touch my things?" she shouted at him. Closing the laptop's lid, Seokhyun faced her. He lowered his head, pretending to be in shame.

"I'm sorry madam!" he cried. "I was only cleaning this room! I didn't see anything!"

"GET OUT!" Rachel roared. "AND DON'T YOU EVEN COME IN HERE AGAIN!"

Seokhyun quickly scrambled up and left the room. As soon as he left, she rushed towards her laptop. To her horror, the video was still playing in it.

"That bastard knows!" she realized. "He knows…"

This is bad, she thought. I must get him kicked out of here! Somehow!

Outside, Seokhyun's ashamed face was slowly turning sadistic. A menacing smile curved on his lips as he thought about what he had just seen. He wanted to see that face again but only when she was under his mercy.

"This is going to be fun," he chuckled. "I guess Ratty should be involved in the fun too."
