Chapter 4

• LEILANI
• He took a step close to me, and I found myself taking steps away from him.
• I'm staring at the scariest man I've ever laid my eyes on in all my life. He was build like a tank, and so tall, I barely came up his shoulders.
• I recognized the look he gave to Jonathan when he refused to let me go, and I know it's a look that says Danger.
• Every part of him was screaming danger. And that is why I find myself taking a step away from him as he walks closed to me.
• "M-Mr....." I clamped my mouth shut when I drew a blank. I don't even know his name!
• He doesn't seem to care because he kept stalking closer to me like a hunter would do it's prey. I gasped as my back touched the cold wall.
• He walked closer until he was so close I could breathe in his masculine scent. Then, he placed two hands on either side of my head, successfully caging me in.
• I swallowed hard as he leaned in. "Don't allow another man close to you ever again, do you hear me."
• I was scared. I swallowed tightly and tried to be brave. "Now listen, Mister, I don't even know yo--"
• "Don't fucking say it." He growled low.
• I clamped my lips shut and stared up at him, jerking at his use of words. I'm not used to people using cuss words around me. The sisters never cussed.
• "You don't ever let a man touch you anywhere again, do you hear me?"
• "O-Okay." I don't know what spurred me to answer but I did. Maybe it's my survival instincts to give him what he wants so that he can move away from me.
• I pleaded in that moment that a customer would ring the doorbell.
• "Good girl. You are mine, no one else's."
• "I'm not yours." I forced out.
• "You are whatever I say you are, Lani. You are goddamn mine." He spoke through gritted teeth, his hands curled into fists as of it's some he's straining himself from putting a hand on my skin.
• ZERO
• I want my hands on her. I want my cock in her. My want my tongue in her.
• I settled for raising a finger and running itt along her palm arm. Fucking skin so smooth.
• "H-How did you know my name?"
• "I know a lot of things about you."
• "I don't even know your name!"
• "You can call me Zero."
• Her ears perked up. "Is that your name?"
• "Yeah." I leaned closer and breathed in her flowery scent. I want to kiss her.
• I stared at her lush plump lips. My cellphone vibrated in my damn pocket.
• "Fucking cocksuckers." I gritted out at the goddamn interruption. She winced at my words and her cheeks turned red.
• Mother-fucking-Jesus. She blushes too? Where the fuck kind of hole did she crawl out from?
• Instead of replying her, I dug into my damn pocket, withdrew my phone and placed the bastard to my ear.
• "This better be good, Morris." I barked.
• "The boss is looking for you."
• I pulled the phone a bit away from my ear and glared at it. "Do you know why?"
• "It's about Falcon. Bastard has been sighted and the boss wants you in on it immediately."
• My ears perked up at the Bastard's name. As a motherfucker, I know a lot of bad motherfuckers like me that I want dead. Falcon tops number 3 on the first 5 list.
• "I'm coming immediately. You better wait for me or I'll feed you your black hairy balls when I get there."
• "Go fuck your mother, asshole, of course I'm waiting and not because your fucking cock deserves it." Came the grunted response.
• I hung up the phone and pocketed it. Lani was looking the relieved because I was leaving and her cheeks was as bright as tomatoes.
• She has something to say too but the words seem to be caught on her throat.
• "What?"
• "Y-Your words are not proper, Mr Zero. Please, don't say them a-around me." She whispered bravely.
• My lips curved to a corner but I didn't reply. Instead, "You be careful whoever comes here. You don't allow any motherfucker put his hands on you or I'm gonna kill him."
• Her eyes widened to unbearable degrees. "You kill people!?" She gawked in horror.
• "Hell, yeah. It's what I do, baby doll."
• Fear clouded her vision and she shrank away from me. "Killing people is bad."
• I chuckled because I couldn't help myself. "I'm glad you think so, doll. So, save their lives by making them keep their distance or their skull will splatter everywhere."
• That said, I turned to leave. Stopped. Turned back and kissed her neck. I ignored her gasp of surprise, before I turned again and walked straight out.
• It's nearly not fucking enough, but this taste of her will have to do for now.
• I've got that cocksucker Falcon to nail to the goddamn cross.
• Then, I'll come back again for her. Oh, will I be back tomorrow.
