WHY THE HELL DID I JUST SAY THAT! I thought to myself fighting the urge to face palm at my stupidity.
He chuckled, darkly. “Mira. You don’t want to dare me again now do you?”
I looked up at him to see that although he looked and sounded amused he was in fact not in any way amused by what I said.
I shook my head in response.
“Good girl. Do not test me again or I would punish you so bad you won’t ever want to see me again.” He said as a matter of fact. He looked away from me and then poured himself another cup of coffee.
My heart was beating so fast now that I felt that I was so close to having a panic attack. I started to breathe from my mouth doing my best to keep him unaware of my beating heart. I took a sip of coffee but I choked on it. I started to cough severely my eyes watering.
He ran to my side when I wont stop coughing. Then he patted my back, up_ down with mild force until I stopped choking. “Thank you.”
He didn’t reply. He simply watched me intensely. “Breathe Mira.” He ordered and I did. I breathed through my mouth and exhaled through my nose.
“Come with me Mira.” He said pulling me up from my sit. I stood still not moving. Hearing him call me Mira the way he did was alluring. I could hear the desire in his voice. His call was more of a summon and it shook me to the bones only hearing it.
“What is it?” He asked turning back.
“No_no_nothing.” I stuttered. My legs automatically started moving on it’s own_as I was afraid to piss him off.
“Good.”
He led me to the room and made me sit on the bed. He looked me over and started pacing.
“What is it?” I asked after a few minutes already disconcerted. My eyes were starting to turn me as he was going round and round and round.
“Nothing.” He spat.
Bipolar much.
“You took me out of the diner and brought me here just to tell me nothing?” I mumbled, more to myself than to him.
“Oh please just keep quiet already!” He shouted vexed. I pressed my lips together stopping myself from roaring in anger. He was still pacing when I heard gunshots. A stray bullet came through the window and almost hit me.
I ducked running to the side of the bed. He covered me with his huge body pulling me under the bed.
“There is an attack let’s go!” He shouted pulling me out. My hand in his. My heart beat stopped and started with a thump.
“From the police?” I asked in fear.
“No. They won’t dare.” I don’t know from who. A rival gang who hasn’t learnt their place. Fuck I’ll kill all of them! It can’t be Sophia can it?” He bellowed.
Downstairs twelve men were already gathered in the parlour. Armed and waiting for his orders. White lion started to pace again getting more agitated.
“What the hell is going!?” He shouted.
“Boss I have no idea but it looks like Sophia has caught on to the fact that you have taken another woman. I recognized one of her assassins. This is just one of her jealous ravings. I can’t believe that she is doing this again.”
“Damn that ingrate. I let her head one of my businesses and she turns my boys against me. When will she learn that she is nothing more to me! I will show her no mercy. Let’s go!” He ordered gesturing with his right hand for his boys to follow him.
He took out a gun from his pocket as he led the men out. “Take my woman inside and lock the door.” He said to Beatrice. “And make sure that she doesn’t leave this place. If she does I will have your head on a spike but that would be after I have killed everyone you have ever known. Do you understand me?!”
“Yes.” She nodded in fear.
I watched as they entered the Suv’s ready for battle.
“You need to go up ma’am.” The housekeeper said startling me and pulling me out of my fearful thoughts.
I nodded and followed her lead up the stairs. There was no need to argue with her or to ask for her help.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
She clearly saw white Lion as her god and she would never defy him for me. I was nobody to her_she definitely would not risk her life or that of those she loved just for me to escape the clutches of a mad man.
She locked the door behind after she had made sure that the windows were locked. She was shaking while she took me up.
Something was up and I didn’t even know what it was. It was not my battle to fight though. I just wanted to leave.
I needed to leave now!
