4 Chapter 4: Man in Black

Before he could lose control, Greg immediately walked into the middle and convinced Seb to move back. "Young Master," he called him shortly, trying to calm him down.

"I came here for Halora and if I have only a chance, I will rip your face right here, and right now!" The boy said, standing by himself.

He then looked away from Seb's deep gaze and noticed the Doctor's playful stare. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm sorry, but I want to know how is she at the moment?"

The doctor gave him a short, sweet smile and replied, "The patient is currently experiencing nyctophobia that triggered her pneumonia.

She must be very afraid before she lost her awareness. Did something happened which provoked her to panic?"

Seb widened his eyes upon hearing the cause of her sudden faint. The room was too dark, and she has pneumonia which made it difficult for her to breathe.

The young boy looked into his way silently, "You found her first, right? Tell us what happened to her or I will never forgive you!"

"I found her unconscious inside of the dark classroom,"

"I knew it! That girl must be the one who did it!" He clenched his jaw, "Look after her, I need to see someone!"

Seb gulped and nodded his head, "Do you know who did it to her?" But the young boy gasped and walked away from them.

"You don't have to worry about her. She's in a good condition but I would suggest letting her stay in the hospital for two days. She needs to take a rest, and please, avoid those things that will put her into the brisk of death." The doctor said.

It was a warning for Halora. She needed to be careful and avoid such chaos as much as she could.

Seb rushed to her room and left Greg with the Doctor. He pushed the door and he saw Halora, slept peacefully with the hospital robe.

Silently, he walked towards her, gasping and swallowing his saliva. "I... I've been searching for you," He murmured while squeezing her soft, wet hand.

"Who are you? Why does my heart reacted this way since the moment our eyes met that day?" He asked the girl who was sleeping silently.

Sebastian set aside everything for her. His father was desirable enough to make him the most powerful young boy on Earth. His mother only cared of wealth instead of anything else that truly matters.

"If I'll tell you the truth, your life will be miserable but if I keep it at the moment, I can be able to protect you from anyone!"

The door creaked as Greg knocked on the door. He waited for the Young Master to allow him to get inside of the room.

"Come in," he told him shortly, caressing his temple.

"It's time to go back home, Young Master. Lord Solomon must be waiting for you,"

Greg reminded the Young Master to go home. He knew his family background and he's been at his side since he was a baby.

But Seb looked at Halora's pale lips. He wanted to stay beside her until she wakes up but, he has something to do with his father.

He took a long, deep sigh and caressed the young girl's hand. "Goodbye, Halora." He murmured upon kissing the back of her hand.

"Shall we? It's about time...," Greg asked him and walked towards the door to lead the way.

Against his free will, Sebastian Woo left her in the hospital room. He has no choice but to go back home instead of staying all night long with her.

He knew what are the consequences of his actions. And choosing to leave was the best decision to make.

Upon reaching the parking lot, Seb saw a suspicious man wearing all black. His eyes were cold, and mysterious until he walked inside of the hospital.

"Greg, I need to go back!" Seb told him in a hurry. He smelled his blood and if he was not mistaken, the man in black is a werewolf who belongs in the Beta pack.

"No! You have to obey your father, Young Master! You don't have to protect that girl!"

Sebastian looked at him coldly and followed the man inside. He ran as fast as he can, afraid to know that he went to Halora's room.

"Young Master!"

"Young Master!"

Greg called him disappointingly yet, he came after Seb. He will be punished by Lord Solomon if he'll get home without the Young Master.

Seb breathed heavily while running. He used the stairs as he can't manipulate the elevator.

"He's good at hide and seek, huh!" He mumbled, peeking at the area to make sure there's no one around who can see him running like a suspicious creature.

Seb was about to open the door when he saw the man in black entering the room found at the end of the hallway.

He quickly came after him and tried to hear their conversation. Yet, the door was soundproof and it was difficult to eavesdrop.

Seb remembered Halora as he ran back to her room. Upon pushing the door, he saw a man in black, choking Halora to death.

"It's been a while since we last meet, Young Master. And, I've been following you everywhere until you brought this beautiful, young lady here."

"Leave her alone! She's nothing to do with me!" Furiously, Seb clenched his fists and hope to see Greg behind him.

The man in black burst into a loud laughter and stopped killing the young girl. "I'll try my best not to hurt her, Master but, if only you will agree in one condition."

"A con–condition?" He asked him surprisingly while looking at Halora who was still sleeping peacefully.

His heart stopped pounding upon seeing the man nodding his head.

Would he agree to the beast's condition to protect Halora from him or he will let his pride win?
