After a fateful encounter, the CEO of Xia Corporation, Xia Jiannan, thought that Wang Rouxi was just a normal employee working under the Wang Empire Estates.

Or would he mistake her again for somebody else?

Kassandra opens her eyes in a bizarre room full of Christmas decorations. “Where the hell am I? Where is this place?” She started moving her eyes around the room. No one is inside the room except for her. She noticed that the room was painted white and full of Christmas decorations. She gets annoyed at the sight of red and green color decorations around her. “Is this hell?” she asked herself. “Hmm. If this is hell, I could turn this into my own haven.” Kassandra removes all the decorations and started throwing it into the fireplace found inside the bedroom. While she is busy doing her stuff, a woman entered the room. “You are awake. How are you feeling?” Kassandra turned her gaze to the source of the voice. The woman is familiar. “Are you Satan? Is this hell?” She innocently asked the woman. “Satan? Who is that?” the woman confusedly asked back. “If you are not Satan. Then I am not in hell. So, is this heaven?” The woman cannot help herself not to laugh. “What a cute human being. Anyway, you are not in heaven or hell. You are in Noel City, specifically Noel Academy.” “Noel City?” Kassandra stops and thinks for a while. She remembers something. She was hunting the meat for her lunch and supper when she encountered some unexplainable occurrences in front of an enigmatic wall that said to be the link of the human world from the place called Noel City. From what she had heard from the town people, Noel City is a place where people can celebrate Christmas every day. Also, this place is no ordinary. All the residents in this city possessed special abilities that are unknown to common people. “Are you kidding me!? Here is even worse than hell!” Kassandra’s skin turns pale white. “Please bring me back home.” The last words she could mutter before losing her consciousness. How can a grinch like her survive in a place like this?

Standing in the morning rays of the rising sun, was a woman with smooth, snow-white skin, piercing violet eyes and soft red lips. With the hood of the cloak pulled down, it revealed pure silver-white hair that was pulled up into a high ponytail with several loose strands framing her slightly heart-shaped face. The dark clothes she wore did nothing to hide her slender physique and accentuated the curves she had perfectly. A belt hung on her hips. Her head was held high and she carried herself with an air of regal elegance. She stood perfectly still, exuding a confidence and grace that was rare. However, the hauntingly beautiful face wore an emotionless, blank mask. A tangible silence enveloped the space between them as all three werewolves simply stared at her, entranced by her beauty -- a beauty that was bewitching.

[NOTE] THIS VERSION OF THE NOVEL HAS BEEN DROPPED DUE TO LACK OF PLANNING. (BASED SOLELY OFF A DREAM) IT WILL BE REWRITTEN WITH ACTUAL STORY BEHIND IT AND PROPER MOTIVATIONS. TAKE THIS VARIANT AS A TASTE OF WHAT IS SOON TO COME. Cauld Facility - A play on words, but not for the fact that the facility itself is cold - It's because of something far worse. In this world, there is a chance, albeit a low one, that a person who's born will gain an 'ability.' These ability-holders are called 'Blessed', simply because their ability is always unique and because they cannot be explained. These children are taken under the guise that they will be protected under the 'Lord's gaze' where in reality, they will be trained. By no means is this any normal training. Cauld Facility - Or in other words - Cold Facility. A dead, emotionless facility where feelings don't last long. This is undoubtedly the fate of all of these so-called 'Blessed.' However, what if one of these poor souls woke up? Realised the situation? Understood what was going on? Will he go mad? Will he break down? Will he end his life? We follow the story of Ryn. A boy who should've never woken up. - NAME UPDATE - Changed from Blessed and Cursed to The Blessed or The Cursed? (Because there's lots of blessed and cursed variants) - Novel Update Schedule - 2x chapters per day at the minimum. Depending on my mood, could be more.

And worse yet; summer is coming. Will the two sisters find the strength to survive the coming summer, or will they be just two more victims claimed by the Venusian sands?
