When I wake, Ren is gone and I'm in bed. I reach over feeling lonely. I look up seeing a note on the desk in my room. I scramble out of bed to read it.
My Dearest Anna,
I now own you, proof is on your body, there is no running anymore. You are never allowed to let another man ever touch you. P.S. we still have work so co to my office as soon as you wake. No excuses!
Ren
I read the note over and over astounded by his forcefulness even in a note. What the hell does he an proofs on my body. I go to my large mirror and I have many hickeys upon my body. Stupid jerk, I smirk I did the sa to you does that an you can't touch another girl. I grumble noticing the blood flakes still on my body. Feeling disgusted seeing it, I shower. Trying to hide all the hickeys I search through my wardrobe This bastard, it's hard to hid them with my clothes. Best I could do was to wear a light blue sun dress that went to my knees with a red belt and heels, with a jean jacket to cover up my arms and shoulders. As for my neck and upper chest I am forced to use lots of cover up to hid them. The bruise is easier to hide today though. Pulling my long hair up I head to his office noticing my things were still at the ware house everything was gone right down to my I.D. As I walk through the entrance to Hashiro Corp. I am greeted with a warm smile from Maliki.
"That was quiet the adventure" he says smiling as if he's trying not to laugh.
Is there sothing on my face, did I miss sothing? Escorting into the elevator he watches as if he had sothing to say which is bugging .
"Is there sothing else you want to say?" I ask looking at him quizzically unable to stand it anymore.
"Not exactly," He was still smiling.
When I enter Ren's office he is out in a eting. Is it okay for to just wait? I look around the office I notice a contract on his desk and the na Golden Dragon catches my eye as I pick up and scan through it. This is? All these large sums of property and businesses what is this, it equals nearing almost several billion in the long run. My head spins with questions what is all this money from, it's got to be illegal. I can feel the blood draining from my face at the thought. What had I gotten myself into? I nearly forgot who Ren really was after last night when he held so gently. He was a real terrifying person to ss with.
"That's all thanks to you last night." I look up seeing Ren in the door watching . I put the file down apologizing for looking without permission. He just waves it off. Points to the file and smiles.
"First ti I've gotten what I wanted without to many deaths, well least it would have been that way but looks like I can't let it slide after all." He's going to kill them anyway I can't hide my shock I feel faint.
"You should get used to it now that you know." He must have seen my worry and fear in my face from his words. I don't know how I'm supposed to get used to it and why do I have too. "You will always be in danger, which brings to the next point." He glides over to his beautiful big hands taking a big box off the table and opening it. Arms reaching around my neck I flinch for a second he seems not to notice or pretends he doesn't.. He clasps the rose gold chain together. I look at it, a beautiful rose gold lion standing on a sun charm was on the chain. Speechless I turn my head to look at him confused.
He wears a pained expression "We don't have any woman in my clan. So, this was especially made, it's your identifying mark that you are one of us and you belong to . If anyone tries to lay a hand on you they would be a damn fool. My n are at your command." He states not even asking to join, it was just decided.
"What if I don't want to be in the Clan?" I ask franticly trying to take off the necklace.
"You little brat you don't get it, do you?" Suddenly angry he slams back against his desk hand pulling my hair back.
"It will be known all over the underworld how you single handily helped bring down the Golden Dragon Clan you will be targeted from here on. Do you feel like dying so soon after being saved? If so I can kill you here and now, then my trouble ends I won't risk my neck again for soone so useless!"
"I can't kill people," I holler in objection.
"Stupid I'm not asking for you to go murder people though I think you need to learn to shoot in case you get kidnapped again, because I can't always be with you." His serious expression softens.
"You seem to be good at getting caught. For now, think of this as a pretense he points at the necklace. I can't set you free till the ss is cleaned up." There's that stupid smile he wraps in an embrace. He was thinking of my safety yet I acted scared of him. I want to ask him then were does this leave us our relationship but I'm too afraid. Set free when the ss is cleaned up does that an soday I will be pushed away. It was only a few days ago, he said he'd never love; No I can't love him either this is for the best, I can't accept the leader of the underworld. He's the mob boss Ren Feng. I tell myself but my heart cries out if only he was a normal arrogant business executive this would be easier.
"I can't join you, I am sorry. I can leave town if needed." I say trying to push him away, I feel like crying.
"You have no choice, even if I have to lock you up! I told you that you can't leave till I tired of you. You're my toy." His cold expression back. "I told you once you knew there was no turning back."
"I didn't ask to know this, it's all your fault this happened If you hadn't been such a womanizer and left , none of this would have happened. If you had just let do the phone interview I'd have never been out with you I wouldn't have…." I feel myself beginning to hyperventilate as tears stread down my cheeks.
"If you say no like I told you I will just kill you here and we will be done with this. And I'm not kidding I don't fuck around" His voice deeply low as he glares he's not as fierce as last night with Michovali but I still shiver at his threat. I feel him watching he's waiting for . I can't run, I am a prisoner now by the Feng clan. I nod reluctantly. His evil smile appears as he reaches for wrapping his arms around . His heat seeping through again a vanilla and his sll easing my muscles with that hint of cigarette smoke lingering on his clothes. I relent to this man. He has the power and money to take and do as he wishes I am no match even if I left town he would find . Maybe it would have been better if I was killed then it wouldn't hurt so much to love soone I fear. Why did he choose ?
Handing my belongings that his n I guess retrieved from the night before at the warehouse he had following him around asking him questions for the article. I try to forget this morning with the thought of work, however; when I am leaving to go ho from work I am stopped by Maliki before getting on the elevator reminding how real this is.

Standing by the giant window looking down, a sigh escapes as I watch her disappear in the distance from the building. What have I done.
