Everyone in the room understood exactly what he was talking about. Yu Lei rushed towards Jagi and carried her not caring at all that she was only covered in feathers. Kay and Yu Han took both Kali and Kim Yuri to a room and cleaned all the blood on their faces while Joo Ah and Shin Suri began cleaning.
Lu Jinho went outside with Kay to speak to the men and try to delay them from going inside. It lasted for a while but they soon went in. Fortunately, before they could get in, the entire house looked as normal as it could possibly be.
"Where is it? Where is the tiger?"
One of the men asked after they looked around but couldn't find her. Joo Ah went close to him and looked at him like she wanted to rip out his heart from his chest.
"She's gone. We let her go into the forest".
The man looked at the small looking lady in front of him and chuckled.
"Heh, you really expect me to believe that? You sounded like you'd never let her go".
"I'd rather let her go than hand her over to you".
At this point, they were both looking at each other intensely. Shin Suri was really surprised at how Joo Ah lied so effortlessly.
"Men! Search the whole house and bring that tiger to me".
They began searching everywhere and soon enough, they got to Yu Lei's room. Yu Lei was sitting on the bed while looking at the beautiful lady lying next to him. He had cleaned her and dressed her up in one of his shirts which looked really big on her. One of the men recognized him and went towards him.
"Mr, where is the tiger you vanished with?"
Yu Lei didn't say anything. As a matter of fact, he didn't even look at them at all, he just kept looking at Jagi. He was basically in a whole other world.
'I still can't believe that this is Jagi. How is she human?'
"You should answer us while we are asking you nicely".
'Damn it, she's so beautiful'.
"Can you hear a word we are saying? Hello..."
'Her skin, oh my god her entire body is....'
"Hello!!!"
The man said and shook him.
"Uhm...who...?"
"We are the men assigned by the government to bring in the tiger".
"Ohh, I see. But, why are you here? There's no tiger here it's just me and my lady".
He said and began smiling sheepishly. The men were dumbfounded. They decided to leave and search other places.
They kept searching but didn't get anything so they had to leave believing that they had actually sent the tiger off to the wild.
After the men left, the tension in the house died down. Kay went back to check on Kali and Kim Yuri but when he got there, he was shocked. He ran back to the living room room where the others were. Everyone turned to look at him thinking something had happened to Jagi again.
"They are gone".
"What are you talking about? Who is gone?"
Joo Ah asked scared that someone took Jagi.
"Both Kim Yuri and her daughter. They are gone".
Shin Suri stood up from her chair immediately.
"Wait what? How?"
"How would I know? The room was empty when I got there".
Lu Jinho stood up calmly as usual.
"Kay, stay here with Joo Ah. Shin Suri and I will go home to check".
"You really think they'll go back there instead of running away?"
"We can't be so sure if we don't check".
Yu Han drove them back home and as soon as they got there, Shin Suri rushed towards the room where Kim Yuri was locked in. When she got there, it was locked solid from the outside. She told the guards to open it and when she got in, she saw Kim Yuri and Kali sleeping on the bed. They both looked pale. She went close to see if they were dead but Kim Yuri spoke.
"I'm still alive young miss".
"Ohh".
"I'm sorry to disappoint you but if you haven't noticed, I won't die so easily".
She said all this with her eyes still shot so Shin Suri felt she was tired. She left the room and locked it back. When she left, Kim Yuri opened her eyes and it was completely red. All the white was gone and now it looked like pure blood.
Jagi didn't wake up till later the next afternoon. Everyone stayed with her except Lu Jinho. He had things to work on so he didn't go back to Yu Lei's home.
When she woke up, she saw someone sleeping next to her. There was a generous amount of space between them but he was holding her hand. She was smiling but suddenly, she noticed her hand was tiny and it looked like that of Joo Ah and Shin Suri.
She ran towards the mirror to look at herself and when she saw herself, she screamed.
"Ahh!!!!"
Yu Lei woke up and ran towards her.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt?"
The door opened and Joo Ah, Shin Suri, and Kay rushed in. Kay rushed towards her to check her vitals but she appeared to be alright. Jagi kept looking at all of them.
'What is this? They don't look surprised at all. Maybe they don't know it's me but, how the fuck do I look like a human, is that even possible?'
Joo Ah knelt towards her and asked.
"Jagi, are you alright?"
"Wait doc, what's wrong with her eye? Is that normal?"
It was then that they all looked at her eyes. It looked quite normal but the part that was supposed to be black was almost completely white. It made her look almost blind.
