Stood up.
Walked to Ethan.
Whispered sothing.
Ethan grinned.
Nodded.
Rex pulled sothing from his pocket.
Dog collar.
Black leather.
tal tag dangling.
Tossed it at Alex.
Landed in front of him.
"Put it on."
Alex looked at it.
Looked up.
"You want to wear your mom’s?"
"Should I give it back?"
Rex’s eye twitched.
Ethan wheeled closer.
"Put. It. On."
Alex laughed.
Coughed blood.
Still laughing.
"You ugly weak shit, no wonder why no actual beauty like you, hahahhhah!"
Rex grabbed the whip.
CRACK!
Hit the floor beside Alex.
"WEAR IT!"
"Or we break every finger."
"One by one."
The butler stepped forward.
Phone still recording.
"Just put it on, boy."
"Save yourself the pain."
"We’re sending this to everyone anyway."
"To that Ice Queen you like so much."
Alex’s grin widened.
"Oh, Raven?"
He tilted his head.
"She’s into this kind of thing."
"Might turn her on."
Coughed.
"You’re doing a favor."
Rex’s face went red.
"You—"
"Plus..."
Alex kept going.
"I look good in anything."
"I am just hooot."
He winked.
Blood still dripping.
Ethan scread.
"PUT IT ON!"
Grabbed the collar.
Threw it at Alex’s face.
Hit him.
Fell to his lap.
"PUT IT ON OR WE—"
"Or what?"
Alex looked at them.
Still smiling.
"You gonna get off that wheelchair and bleed? LOL."
Rex and Ethan stared.
Mouths open.
The butler’s eyes narrowed.
"This boy..."
He put the phone away.
Walked forward.
"Is broken."
Grabbed Alex’s collar.
Lifted him up.
Slamd him against wall.
"Or too stupid to know when to quit."
Alex grinned.
Face to face with the butler.
"I’m not stupid."
Coughed blood.
"I’m just better looking than you."
"And younger."
"And not a dog."
The butler’s grip tightened.
"What did you say?"
"I said..."
Alex leaned closer.
"You’re. A. dog."
The butler’s hand raised.
Pulled back.
About to punch—
BANG!
The door exploded open.
Laughter echoed in the cell.
Rex. Ethan. Butler.
All watching Alex.
Then—
CLANG.
The iron door opened.
A guard stepped in.
Leading soone.
Young officer.
Squad leader uniform.
He stopped.
Looked around.
Saw the tools.
Saw the blood.
Saw Alex.
Against the wall.
Shirt torn. Bleeding.
The officer’s jaw tightened.
"Bring him out."
Finally.
Finally...
Alex’s body relaxed.
Soone ca.
The guards looked at Rex.
Uncertain.
Rex stepped forward.
"We’re interrogating a suspect."
His voice sharp.
"Official business."
The officer looked at him.
Then at Ethan.
Then at the butler.
"This is a police station."
"Not your interrogation room."
Pause.
"The suspect is being released."
Rex’s face went red.
"By whose authority—"
"Chief’s orders."
The officer said.
"Release him."
"Now."
He gestured to the guards.
They hesitated.
Looked at the butler.
Butler shook his head.
Not yet.
Footsteps.
From outside.
Heels clicking.
Sharp. Rhythmic.
Getting closer.
Everyone turned.
A sexy figure appeared in doorway.
Rose.
Black satin dress.
Crazy mature curve
She stopped.
Looked around.
Eyes scanning the room.
Landed on Alex.
Sothing flickered in her eyes.
She walked in.
Stopped beside the officer.
Her eyes traced Alex’s body.
The torn shirt.
Exposed chest.
Muscles visible.
Blood streaking across skin.
Young. Lean. Strong.
Her throat moved.
Swallowed.
But her face stayed calm.
Professional.
She pulled out her badge.
Flipped it open.
"Rose Martinez."
"I guess you guys know who I am? Huh."
Ethan and Butler’s faces went dark, and Rex started trembling.
She looked at Rex.
"You’re done here."
Rex’s mouth opened.
"This is family—"
"I don’t care."
Her eyes stayed on Alex.
Scanning his wounds.
His face.
The way he leaned against the wall.
Breathing hard but alive.
Sothing in her chest tightened.
He’s just a kid.
Seventeen.
Bleeding.
But still standing.
She tore her eyes away.
Looked at Rex.
"Get out."
"Before I arrest all of you."
The butler stepped forward.
"Madam Rose—"
Rose’s hand raised.
Stopped him.
"Get out of my way."
"I will not repeat again."
Silence.
Rex and Ethan looked at each other.
At the butler.
Butler’s jaw tightened.
But nodded.
"We’re leaving."
He gestured to the door.
Rex hesitated.
"But—"
"Now."
Butler’s voice firm.
They left.
Rex glaring back.
Ethan muttering.
Butler calm.
Door closing.
Rose walked to Alex.
Stopped in front of him.
Looked down.
He looked up.
Their eyes t.
She noticed his face.
Young. Defiant.
Blood on his lip.
But still smirking.
God.
He’s so young.. so hot.
Her hand twitched.
Almost reached out.
To touch his face.
But stopped.
Pulled back.
Crossed her arms instead.
Control yourself.
He’s seventeen.
You’re thirty-five.
This is work.
The cuffs ca off.
Alex sagged.
Rose’s hand moved.
Grabbed his arm.
Steadying him.
Fed him a small golden ball.
Warm, healing Alex’s body.
Alex felt better asap!
"Thank you, Madam."
"Call Rose, I am not that old."
Alex smirked.
"Sure, Sis Rose~"
He peeped down a bit, at Rose’s full-white-huge breast.
And that deep gap in between.
Oh god, she is even bigger than Auntie.
Oh, I love mature won!
Rose froze a bit, swallowed.
Her fingers on his skin.
Warm. Solid.
She felt his pulse.
Strong. Fast.
Oh god.
Stop it.
Let go.
Stepped back.
"Can you walk?"
Alex nodded.
Tried to stand straight.
Wobbled.
Rose caught him again.
This ti under his shoulder.
Supporting his weight.
He leaned on her.
Body against hers.
She felt his warmth.
His breath.
Focus.
"Let’s go."
Her voice steady.
Led him to the door.
The officer followed.
They walked out.
Down the hallway.
Rose’s heels clicking.
Alex’s steps uneven.
She kept him upright.
Hand on his waist.
Feeling his body.
They reached the main hall.
Rose looked up.
Stopped.
The hall was full.
Officers. Guards.
Chief Li in the center.
And three more figures.
Sebastian.
Beside him—
Raven.
Face pale.
Eyes red.
Luna is clinging to her.
Pink twin tails.
Hands on Raven’s chest.
Again.
Raven didn’t even bother.
Staring at the hallway.
Then she saw him.
Alex.
Covered in blood.
Raven’s eyes went wide.
"ALEX!"
She ran.
Luna stumbled.
Still holding on.
"RAVEN WAIT—"
They crashed into Alex.
Hard.
Too hard.
"OW!"
Alex stumbled back.
Pain shot through his chest.
Right where the whip marks were.
Raven grabbed him.
Arms around his shoulders.
Pulled him close.
"You’re alive!"
Her voice breaking.
"You’re okay!"
Squeezed tighter.
Alex gasped.
"Ow ow ow—"
"ALEX!"
Raven let go imdiately.
Stepped back.
Hands up.
Face panicked.
"I’m sorry!"
"Did I hurt you?!"
"Where does it hurt?!"
She reached for him.
Stopped.
Pulled back.
Reached again.
"Tell where!"
Luna crashed in from the side.
Arms wrapping around both.
One hand on Alex’s shoulder.
Other landed on Raven’s chest.
"You’re alive!"
Her voice muffled.
Face pressed between them.
Alex winced.
"Luna—"
"I was so scared!"
Luna squeezed tighter.
Both of them.
"Can’t—breathe—"
Alex choked out.
Raven pushed Luna’s hand away.
"Luna! You’re crushing him!"
"Sorry sorry sorry!"
Luna let go, cover her face.
Raven looked at Alex.
Eyes scanning his body.
The blood.
The torn shirt.
The whip marks.
Her hands started shaking.
"They... they really..."
Voice cracking.
Couldn’t finish.
Alex tried to smile.
"I’m okay."
Blood on his teeth.
"We haven’t gone to that strip club yet..."
Grinned wider.
"So nothing will stop ."
Raven’s fist clenched.
Raised it.
Shaking.
About to punch him.
Then saw his face.
The blood.
The bruises.
Her fist loosened.
Dropped.
She grabbed him instead.
Pulled him into her arms.
Gentler this ti.
Face buried in his neck.
"You horny dumbass!"
Her voice muffled.
Shaking.
"I’m gonna..."
Shoulders trembling.
"Hate you!"
But held him tighter.
"You’re such an idiot."
She pulled back.
Looked at his face.
Wiped her eyes.
"A complete idiot."
Alex laughed.
Winced.
Laughing hurt.
"Yes cupcake."
Raven’s eyes welled up again.
"Stop laughing!"
Stomped again.
"You’re all bloody!"
"And torn up!"
"And—and—"
Started crying again.
Pulled him close.
"Just shut up."
Face in his shoulder.
"And don’t move."
Alex stopped laughing.
Held her.
"Okay."
Rose stood there.
Watching.
Her hand still tingling.
Where she’d touched him.
She clenched her fist.
Looked away.
Professional.
This is professional.
Sebastian started typing.
[Miss Raven: She actually fell for him. Oh, they are actually kinda sweet]
[Miss Luna: Why can’t she just touch herself to calm down?]
[Madam Rose: Professional deanor maintained,but i feel sothing is different.]
[Alex:....I don’t know what to say, but good for him]
