89 Saving the world comes before admiring beautiful men (1/2)
Looking up at the magnificent castle surrounded by mist, Sung Se-Yong whistles. No matter what anyone says, the purebloods have style.
”See.” She points at the barrier surrounding the lake. ”It's even stronger than before.”
”You came here before?” Sung Se-Yong raises his brow.
Sung Na-Mi coughs and looks away. She might have been interested in catching the glimpse of the legendary antisocial vampire king who is supposed to have outstanding looks. She's sure that his appearance won't surpass her father, but still...
Her brother shakes his head. ”You don't date anyone because no one meets your expectations in case of appearance. Have you never heard of the saying? Never judge a book by its cover?”
”Why are you talking about my dating history during these times?” Sung Na-Mi glares at her brother. ”People are dying. Our parents are stuck in different realms. You only think about ridiculous things.”
”Don't lecture me.” Sung Se-Yong narrows his eyes on her. ”You are excited about seeing him, aren't you?”
”I am here on business.” She inserts her hands in her pockets. ”How are you going to make them come out of their hiding hole?”
”What do I get for helping you?” Sung Se-Yong smirks at her.
”You are my brother. You are supposed to help me.” Sung Na-Mi scowls at her brother. ”Why is it you? It was better if he threw someone else.”
Se-Yong shrugs. ”Deal with it.”
”Hmph!” Na-Mi folds her arms. ”When I was a kid, you used to be nicer.”
”You are still a kid.” He rolls his eyes. ”But your tongue and eyes only like seeing handsome men with crappy personalities. I am warning you. If you fall for the vampire king...”
Pureblooded vampires are supposed to be beautiful in appearance. They can easily lure women. He is the only one here now. If his baby sister falls for a vampire, his father will...
He shivers. He can face the wrath of eight other brothers, but his father will throw him in a giant mixer.
”Who do you think that I am? My duties come first.” She scoffs at him. ”I am the council head. I will resolve this situation. Saving the world comes before admiring beautiful men.”
Se-Yong squints at her. ”Admiring beautiful men? How old are you? You are too young to think about men. You should only worry about saving the world.”
”Oppa, I am only four years younger than you are.” Clicking her tongue, she walks toward the violet bubble that is shrouding the area around the castle. ”What a beautiful piece of magic! I am sure that Father can break it.”
