LOGIN𝐄𝐫𝐢𝐜The door hadn’t even fully closed behind him before I snapped, my hand sweeping across the desk and sending every file crashing to the floor, papers scattering in every direction as if that would somehow ease the anger burning through me. I didn’t bother looking at the mess, didn’t care where anything landed, because all I could see was his face and the way he walked in here like he owned everything, like I didn’t matter.“Who the hell does he think he is…” I muttered under my breath, my jaw clenched tight as I paced the office, unable to stay still, every step fueled by the irritation still sitting heavy in my chest. Frank had always been like that, arrogant, reckless, acting like consequences didn’t apply to him, but this… this was different, and the more I thought about it, the worse it got.Tim is in danger because of you.I scoffed, shaking my head as I tried to brush it off, because that was just Frank doing what he always did, pushing blame onto someone else, making
꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂“Sir, you can’t just walk in like this—”I didn’t stop.The receptionist was already standing up, her voice rising as she tried to get my attention, but I walked past her like she wasn’t even there. She called out again, louder this time, something about appointments and security, but I was already heading straight down the hallway without slowing.I wasn’t here to talk to her.I wasn’t here to wait.Kagemoto Kazama’s words were still running through my head, repeating in a way that made it hard to focus on anything else. Marry his daughter. The old man really sat there and said that like it was something normal, like I was supposed to just agree and everything would fall into place. It was disgusting. Not just the idea, but the way he said it, like Tim’s life could be traded that easily, like I would just fold and play along.My jaw tightened as I walked, my hands clenching slightly at my sides before I relaxed them again. I could still see his face clearly, calm, co
꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂It was already sunset when he walked in.I had been seated in the living room, doing nothing but waiting, my mind going over the same questions again and again with no answers. The moment the door opened and I saw him step inside, I didn’t think twice. I stood up immediately and closed the distance between us.“What is this?” I asked, my voice firm. “Why am I here?”Kagemoto Kazama looked at me like he had expected that reaction. There was no surprise on his face, no urgency, just that calm expression that made everything about him harder to read.“Let me go,” I added.He chuckled softly, like I had said something amusing instead of serious. “You’re impatient,” he said.“I’m not here by choice,” I replied. “So yes, let me go.”He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he walked past me slowly, like there was no pressure, like this conversation wasn’t important. I turned to face him again, my patience already wearing thin.“I will,” he said finally.I paused, the words catchi
꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂The car finally came to a stop after what felt like a long drive, though I couldn’t tell exactly how long it had been with the sack still covering my head. Everything had blurred into one, the movement, the turns, the silence from the men around me, all of it making it impossible to track where we were going or how far we had come. My hands were free, but that didn’t mean much when I couldn’t see anything, when every step I took had been controlled, guided, like I didn’t have a choice in any of it.The engine died down, and for a moment everything went quiet. Then hands were on me again, firm but not rough, pulling me forward. My feet hit solid ground, and I steadied myself instinctively, even as my vision was still blocked, my balance still not fully recovered from earlier. The air felt different here, fresher, more open, not like the city, and that alone told me we weren’t anywhere near where I had been taken.“Move.” I didn’t argue or resist cause there was little on
꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂I didn’t hesitate when the window rolled down and I saw him. There was no surprise, no second thought, just a quiet understanding settling in because I already knew what this was. Kagemoto Kazama sat inside like he owned the air around him, relaxed, composed, watching me with that faint smile that never quite reached his eyes. “Get in,” he said, like it wasn’t a request, like this was something already decided.I held his gaze for a second, then stepped forward and got in without another word. The door shut behind me, cutting off everything outside, leaving only the quiet inside the car. Like the silence was part of whatever scheme he had planned. He didn’t speak immediately, just watched me, studying me in that calm, measured way that made it clear he wasn’t here for some peaceful talk.Then again, it's Kagemoto Kazama. Nothing about him was ever peaceful, despite the facade he puts up.“You’ve been busy,” he said eventually.“I could say the same about you,” I re
꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂The scream cut through everything, sharp enough to pull me out of the fog completely, and I was already moving before my mind fully caught up. My body felt heavy, the dizziness was still there from earlier, but it didn’t matter, not now. I pushed forward anyway, stepping out of the room and heading straight toward the living room, my heartbeat picking up with each step, something tight forming in my chest.“Sheila?”No response.I reached the living room and stopped. Sheila stood there, but not the way she should. A man had his arm locked around her from behind, holding her tightly in place, and a gun was pressed right against her face. The metal caught the light just enough to make it real, too real, and she didn’t move, didn’t struggle, like she was afraid that even the smallest movement would set something off.Her eyes were wide, filled with fear, tears already streaming down her cheeks as her body trembled in his grip. Her lips parted slightly like she wanted to spe
☾♡ Eric ♡☽Hatred has always come easily to me.People liked to say brothers should love each other, protect each other, grow up side by side like two trees from the same root. But Frank and I had never grown like that. From the moment we were children, he stood taller, brighter, louder than me. H
𝓣𝓲𝓶By the time the nurse came in with my discharge papers, I had already been awake for a long time.The hospital room was quiet in that strange way only hospitals could be quiet, filled with the faint hum of machines and the distant sound of footsteps in the hallway. My body felt lighter than
𝓣𝓲𝓶I stared at the ceiling for a long time before I finally spoke.“Thank you.”The word came out small, almost weak, but it carried everything I had been holding inside. Frank turned his head slightly and looked at me.“For what?” he asked.I swallowed and forced myself to look at him. My hear
꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂The hotel lobby looks exactly the same as it did on Eric’s wedding day, and that alone makes something dark twist inside my chest. The polished marble floor reflects the yellow light from the chandelier above, and for a brief second I see my own shadow stretched out in front of me
