III (1/1)

“I see; our Red Queen here just couldn’t stay hidden in her very own sanctuary any longer.”Quickly spanning around to take a glimpse at the presence of the new arrival, she couldn’t help but let out a gasp. But a gasp of what? A gasp of awe and astonishment or disillusion and abruptness to what caught her by surprise?It was him.Standing in six foot tall with a dead serious façade along with his ashy brown orbs which seems to just pierce through her, she couldn’t help but shiver slightly from the chills his own existence engenders.“W-what do you mean?” she questioned lowly and breathlessly; trying to make out their situation right now. He’s dead. He should be. He couldn’t have come out without a single bruise and still breathing from the hands of Kris.“Don’t play innocent with me, your highness.” It was mockery, mockery that she senses trailing along his voice. She couldn’t help but frown, staring straight at his ashy brown eyes; wide chocolate doe ones clashing with his hardened ashy brown ones. There was nothing but eminence. Not even a trace of affection.“Your highness? Is this one of your sick joke now?” she frowns, unconsciously rubbing her stomach out of habit. “Look, Kim Jongin. If this is a joke you’re playing on me now, don’t even sta—”Yoona was only cut short when he raises a hand, cocking one of his defined brows at her. “Kim Jongin?  Have you completely lost your mind during the period of your hiding? I thought we already agreed to it that you’ll be gone from the wonderland at least until it’s born.”It. Not he or she but it. He spoke of it so stoically and coldheartedly.“Don’t bullshit me, Kai!”Hugging her stomach protectively and out of instinct, she began taking a few steps back; slowly and carefully trying to get away from him. If this was a dream then it’ll be the best time to wake up now. She’s tired and exhausted, the stress and distress she’s under right now which can be bad not only for her but to the baby as well.The worst part is; everyone seems to be assuming that she’s this royalty of a Red Queen that everyone seems to detest and Kai is acting so indifferently. Does she really look like this Queen they’re all talking about and is this really Kai? The Kai that’s willing to give up his own life (which he already did); just for her and their child?Then suddenly, everything seems to have clicked altogether.The woman who was looking back at her. Her reflection which smiled at her so viciously sweet before being pulled into—here.She snapped back to reality from the constant light shook of Kai with both of his callous hands rested upon her shoulders.“W-Wonderland you s-say,” she stuttered out before staring straight at him. “Is it the place?”“The whole land is named Wonderland. Why ask of the obvious? Has isolating yourself for a bit really taken that big of a toll at you? What’s happened to you? It’s like you don’t even remember anything.” “I-I don’t,” she paused for a while; biting down onto her bottom lips in hesitant to how to explain it all before continuing on. “And I don’t think I’m the same Queen you’re referring to as well.”“So this is what that stupid cat was talking about.” He muttered quietly to his self although audible enough for her to hear.“So I wasn’t just being delusional! He, that creature which I came upon, it’s really a cat?”He scorned; brown eyes still set hard on her.“Of course he is.  Now, tell me. What did you do to Yoona?”“Yoona? B-but—I am Yoona. Im Yoona.”:::A/N: Been so busy lately and out of myself. otl emotionally unstable is how I should put it as (not like I'm not anymore).Anyways, special day tomorrow! Guess what it is? It's my birthday although, I don't feel a tad bit excited at all about it. It's just like any other days after all.
