[If the person who took Cinderella wasn’t the prince, who could it be?] This was the question in Lin Sanjiu's mind when she stepped back and hit Emma’s dining table.
It took a few milliseconds before she processed the sound of rain and of barking dogs. She quickly looked around, realizing where she was. The cottage was dimly lit but Lin Sanjiu could see Red Riding Hood hiding behind Emma. The scared girl clutched her grandmother’s clothes with both hands and peeked at Lin Sanjiu.
The interior of the cottage was lit with a bright light every time a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, at that same time, the knife in Emma’s hand was revealed.
Lin Sanjiu knew it was useless but she couldn’t help defending herself, "I am not a werewolf…"
However, Emma did not even look at her. Instead, she held her knife tightly with her trembling hands and shouted to the men outside, "It’s here! She must be the werewolf. Please think of a way to save us!"
