Stalked

"Omg, Seojin is so handsome!" a group of girls squealed when they saw Seojin enter the school's main gate. A bunch of girls were waiting for him in the school's courtyard just to see him every morning.

Seojin politely smiled at the girls who were staring at him. After his sudden glow-up, he had been getting a lot of girl admirers, but he only had eyes for Valentin. He had been gathering even more admirers these days since he appeared on the dating show and worked out every day. His arm muscles were visible from the tight uniform.

"Good morning, Seojin!" Ji-a yelled while running towards him. The other girls looked at her in envy; she was the only girl who had been by Seojin's side. If they didn't know that she already had a fiancé, they would have misunderstood their relationship.

"Hi, Ji-a," Seojin replied while smiling. He was glad that everything was going well for Ji-a and her family. It was all thanks to Valentin.

"I watched the show 'Hot Singles'. You looked so handsome in it! I would've never guessed that you would end up with Valentin. Isn't he your guardian?" Ji-a asked.

"Yes, he's the judge you met at the auction event last time," Valentin replied.

"Are you guys together?" she asked. Like many other fans, she was curious about the couples who left the island together. Were they dating in real life?

Seojin laughed hesitantly. He didn't know how to answer his friend, and he didn't want to lie to her either. How he wished that were the case. Valentin never replied to his confession, so Seojin guessed that the judge didn't want to talk about that matter. Maybe Valentin just wanted Seojin to forget about it. Perhaps it was just for the show, to make the viewers curious and satisfied.

After the dating show, he had been keeping watch of the other couples on social media. He was curious to how they were doing. Some of them uploaded their pictures together. The fans were curious about Valentin and Seojin, the most popular couple of the show. But they were a bit scared to ask because Valentin was a renowned judge. They were afraid that they might be sued for intruding on their privacy.

"No, we aren't," Seojin murmured.

Seeing her friend's gloomy expression, Ji-a gently tapped his back, comforting him. It seems like the judge was important to him. Her friend has fallen in love. To be honest, she never expected Seojin to like someone first. He wasn't the type to be interested in dating.

After his glow-up, a bunch of girls confessed to him, but he rejected them all. Some of them were known to be beauties in their school. Ji-a was confused as to why Seojin wasn't attracted to them. She finally noticed that Valentin was the reason why her friend had been keeping his heart shut.

"Don't worry about it. I'm sure the judge is just too busy with his work. You can just ask him again when the time is right," Ji-a encouraged him.

Seojin nodded and tried not to think about the judge anymore. He also hoped that the judge was too busy and not keeping his distance.

After school ended, Seojin walked home as always. He was excited to see the judge's face after a while, since Valentin was busy with the child kidnapping case.

Suddenly, Seojin felt a pair of eyes on him. He had been feeling that a lot these days when he walked back home. Those eyes were creepily scrutinizing his body. He turned back and saw a girl walking at a safe distance behind him. She was wearing the same uniform as him. Seeing that she was from his school, he tried to ignore her. Was she also one of those admirers?

Seojin walked faster to lose the girl behind. He hoped that his guesses were wrong. He didn't want to deal with a stalker. The girl's steps also fasten, keeping up with Seojin's pace.

Suddenly, when they arrived in the richer neighbourhood, the girl crept behind him and placed a white cloth under his nose.

'What the fuck?' Seojin thought as his legs gave out. He passed out dizzily on the ground. He never expected a little girl to kidnap him.

The girl with two pink ponytails smirked in victory. She had been waiting for so long for this day. Dragging the handsome boy to her home, she smiled crazily. She successfully added another beautiful person to her collection.

Lilith dragged Seojin onto the white bed. She had been keeping her collection in separate white rooms. Since her parents were never home, she had the liberty to do whatever she wanted.

She traced Seojin's beautiful face with her finger as she cuffed him in chains, attaching him to the bed. Lilith giggled as she touched Seojin's dark eyebrows. The boy had a perfect face. He had long eyelashes that girls would die for, a tall nose and plump, rosy lips.

After admiring him, she installed her canvas in front of the bed and sat down on her stool. Strokes of white and black paint decorated the canvas. Soon, a confined Seojin was drawn on the canvas. Lilith watched her painting with satisfaction. She had been struggling with her imagination these days. Seojin was truly a work of art. After seeing him, she was fueled with creativity.

The girl was obsessed with beautiful people. It was her only inspiration for her paintings. She collected them like living art. Her other collections were confined to other rooms. She would juggle around the rooms to find more inspiration.

Lilith was worried because the police had been searching for the missing students at their school. She didn't want to release them, because she hadn't finished with them yet. There were still so many things for her to draw. Luckily, with the mass of missing children, the police had stopped searching for the suspect of the missing students. No one was paying attention to her; it was the perfect time to kidnap Seojin.

Suddenly, Seojin's eyes opened. He looked around in confusion. Where was he? The whiteness of the room made his head even dizzier. Then, he noticed the girl with ponytails staring at him creepily. He wanted to get up, but his limbs were locked into the chains. How did he even get into this situation? Was it a crazy fan?

"Who are you?" Seojin asked cautiously.
