The Satan CEO's Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell in Love with Her

Chapter 14 - 14: The Dream

In a barren place found in between the mountain ranges of the Himalayas, a woman who's skin was as white as snow and wearing a white dress was on her way to enter a secret passage which would lead her to a hydraulic platform that would bring her 2000 meters below the ground.

A passerby might mistaken her as the mythical Goddess of Snow because of how beautiful she was despite the strong and harsh blizzard around her.

On the other hand, Kim Eunji was puzzled why she was back in front of the familiar door. If she'd punch the code, she would be a step closer to the place that she had vowed to never be back again in this lifetime. The place that was once she called home.

As she looked at the steel door, something inside was urging her to punch the codes so that she could enter to the other side. Her gut-feeling was telling her that something was off on the on the place 2000 meters below her. She hurriedly punched the code and as soon as she pressed enter the lift opened with a weird smell.

She did not hesitate to get inside and hurriedly pressed the close button. The lift moved slowly which was weird. As far as she could remember, the lift was definitely faster than this. This made her more anxious.

Finally, the lift stopped and it chimed as it unlocked.

Kim Eunji was expecting to see a still lively community of the mercenaries and their families just like in the past.

But as soon as the lift opened, she gasped in horror! This was not what she expected at all!

What laid in front of her were countless dead bodies of her former fellow mercenaries and their respective families scattered on the ground. Their internal organs were even taken out of their respective bodies.

They were mercilessly executed by whoever it was. The gore scene was so terrifying.

The entire place also reeked with blood. Blood was everywhere. No. The place had turned into a pool of blood. The smell was too much that if an ordinary person happened to be in the place and witnessed such gore scene, he would surely puke as soon as the smell entered his nostrils. A much worse reaction would be passing out instantly.

Kim Eunji scanned the once familiar but already unfamiliar place before her eyes.

The former proud Head Quarters was now reduced into ruins. An explosion had clearly happened in the place.

"What happened here?" Kim Eunji mumbled in disbelief.

"Why am I here?" She asked once again. She walked and walked until she reached the training ground.

This time a familiar voice of the young girl echoed behind her back.

"Ana! You came!"

Kim Eunji turned around and saw a familiar face.

"Carmella? Oh my gosh! It's you!" Kim Eunji run towards her and then hugged her tightly. Gosh! Only heaven knew how much she missed her. She inwardly heaved a huge sigh of relief as she saw the child safe and unharmed.

"En! It's me!" Though Carmella answered her with a cheerful tone, Kim Eunji could feel that something was off about her.

Kim Eunji slowly detached herself from the hug and looked at Carmella. The former was stunned when she saw that the latter was looking at her with a sinister smile flashed on her once innocent face. Aside from that fresh blood spread all over the latter's face.

"What happened here?! Tell me!" Kim Eunji questioned her. 'Could it be?' she vigorously shook her head as she tried to deny what was on her mind. She did not want to believe what was happening.

"Ask yourself of why this happened Asia." Carmella's sweet voice was gone and was now replaced by a huskier feminine voice. This stunned Kim Eunji

"Who are you? What did you do to Carmella?!" Kim Eunji snapped.

"I am who you see. I have been here since day one. Unfortunately, you just didn't notice me." Carmella answered.

Kim Eunji stood up and looked at the girl in disbelief.

Kim Eunji then closed her eyes as she tried to process everything.

The feeling was so overwhelming that she could not take it.

After she managed to calm herself she opened her eyes and what she saw shocked her to the core.

Carmella was now holding the head of Kim Eunji's mother while her right feet was stepping on her father's head.

"Carmella!" Kim Eunji yelled in pure rage. She didn't know what to do.

However the girl whom she could no longer recognize chuckled and looked at her straight in the eyes.

"You're mine Asia. Mine." Carmella said in pure conviction.

Carmella then took out a sharp blade out of nowhere and slit her own throat. Blood gushed out from the deep wound like a fountain.

"No!!" Kim Eunji screamed in shock. Her gaze were glued on the bodies of her beloved people who were now lifeless in front of her.

When she looked at her hands, she saw the blade which Carmella used to take her own life earlier. She's holding it and both of her hands were stained with blood.

"What have I done?" She mumbled as Carmella's last words echoed in her ears.

She suddenly felt cold and her body shivered. The next moment, it rained. But instead of water, it was raining blood. Her once white dress was now stained with red. Everything around her turned crimson. Or was it really crimson? One thing that she was sure of was that her vision turned red.

She closed her eyes and inhaled as she balled her fist.

The blood rain did not stop pouring and flooded the place.

Kim Eunji stood still on the ground even if the crimson water level was rising. When she was about to make her move to leave the place it was already too late. She suddenly felt that something was pulling her from below. When she looked down on the sea of blood, countless of hands were holding her feet stopping her from leaving.

They wanted to pull her down and be drowned to death with them.

"Live your life like you wanted to." She suddenly heard her mother's voice.

"Mom?" She mumbled.

"Mom?!" She called but no one answered her.

"Live my Princess Eve."

"Dad?!" It was her father's voice this time.

"Live the life that you deserved."

"Please show yourself!" Kim Eunji pleaded but no one answered her call.

"Don't fret. Mom and Dad will always be here to support you. 'Till we meet again, Eve."

Her eyes widened and tears suddenly gushed out of her tear ducts as soon as realization finally hit her.

"No!! This can't be!" She cried in disbelief.

"Mom!!!"

"Dad!!"

She was weeping.

***

While Kim Eunji was drowning inside her dream, the atmosphere inside Nathan's room grew tense.

"Is she okay?" Madame Mo worriedly asked. As she looked at Kim Eunji's paled and now sweat soaked face. Kim Eunji's hands were balled into a tight fist.

"Why don't we try to wake her up?" Mo Ping suggested.

He was about to touch Kim Eunji's shoulder when Kelly stopped him as she warned. "If you want to keep your fingers and hands in tact for the next few years, you should keep your hands off her."

"?"

Her statement made everyone puzzled.

"What do you mean Kelly sweetheart?" Madame Mo inquired.

"Father broke five of his fingers when he did what first-cousin-brother was about to do." She explained.

"Seriously?" Mo Ping asked in disbelief. "Aren't you exaggerating things sister-in-law?"

'How could a beautiful, fragile-looking girl do something like that? It didn't make sense ag all.' That was what on his mind.

Kelly saw this and she sighed. "Eunji broke my rib because she kicked me while I tried to wake her up from her nightmare." Kelly confessed.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Minutes later.

"..."

"What?!!!!"

"We were sleeping together when she had this nightmare. I tried to wake her up but she turned violent and kicked me. Thankfully we were not alone in the house during that time." She paused and then looked at their shocked faces.

However, two people were having a sour expression on their faces when they heard her said, 'sleeping together'.

"What I mean is sleep over!" Kelly explained in disbelief. She then looked at the two and she inwardly face palmed when she witnessed how it changed back to normal. 'Unbelievable. So you're jealous of my own best friend?' She thought.

Any men seeing their partners, be it their wife or girlfriends, would definitely feel insecure if they saw them with Kim Eunji.

"The only thing to calm her down is to hug her." Kelly added as she looked at Kim Eunji who was now panting.

"Had I not being pregnant right now, I'll do it myself." Kelly sighed in helplessness.

The catch was Kim Eunji would calm down only if she was comfortable and felt-secured with the person who was hugging her.

This was the second time that she saw Kim Eunji in a bad dream. Though dreams normally won't kill a person, but for someone like Kim Eunji, it had a great effect on her behavior. Good thing Mr. Roland was on his way and could help them with Eunji.

Everytime Eunji would be having a nightmare, Mr. Roland would sedate her while she's asleep. That's the other means of making her calm.

"I'll do it." The masculine voice of the man echoed which made everyone looked towards his direction.

"..." They were speechless for awhile.

"Be careful." Kelly warned him.

Nathan Bai slowly approached the bed and was about to touch Kim Eunji's shoulder as he wanted to scoop her up and place her in his strong arms.

But before he could do so, Kim Eunji held his wrist with her pale hands and twist it almost breaking.

"!!!"

The people around the room were stunned.

Nathan could feel his bones snapping. It was really painful to the point that huge beads of sweat formed in his forehead. 'What the hell?!' He inwardly cursed.

Good thing Nathan had learned some basic Martial Arts skills.

Before Kim Eunji could break his wrist, he held Kim Eunji's hand and tried to unclasped it. But he was stunned when Kim Eunji's grip was so strong. Therefore, he had no other choice but to lay down beside her and hug her from her side.

Seems like his move worked as he felt like Kim Eunji's grip had loosened a bit.

"Talk to her." Kelly instructed.

"What!?" Nathan asked in astonishment. 'This woman was close to detaching my hand from my arm and then you wanted me to be nice to her? No way!' He thought.

"Talk to her. Make her feel that it's alright." Kelly seriously added but deep inside, she was giggling.

'Oh gosh my bestfriend is finally hugged by a man!' She inwardly screamed.

"Are you trying to mess up with me?!" Nathan groaned as he felt like Kim Eunji's grip on his wrist tightened.

"Don't you dare yell with my wife Nate!" Mo Jing-sheng reprimanded him.

"Do I look like joking to you? Don't you want your wrist anymore?" Nathan inwardly cursed as soon as he heard Kelly.

Left with no choice. Nathan drew Kim Eunji's head towards his broad chest and then he hummed. He was humming a tune that his mother would hum to him if he was having a difficulty in sleeping back when he was still little.

Surprisingly, Kim Eunji relaxed the moment she heard his hum.

The scene looked so sweet and intimate. Kelly and Madame Mo's eyes sparkled in happiness.

Such an eye candy scene. Master Mo who was standing beside his beloved wife could not help but chuckle upon seeing his wife's dreamy looking eyes.

'Seems like the matchmaking had just begun!' He said in his thoughts.

They were so lost by the scene that they did not realize that the two people had already left the room with a sullen look on their faces.

Kim Jeong Ho, having no experience with things like this, didn't know what was wrong with him.

On the other hand, Mo Ping knew what the feeling was.

But one thing was clear for them both, it should be them who was comforting Kim Eunji and not Nathan Bai.
