The Mafia Lover

Chapter 1

Loren's P.O.V

"And here I thought you were in great danger... But look what we have here"

The girl next to Calid looked at me, her eyes were glaring as if she wanted to scold me. It raised an eyebrow at me so I did the same. The helicopter started to fly so the pilot made me wear headphones. I followed what he said and stayed silent.

"Did you manage to pick up a stray kitten yet?"

Continuation of the woman. Even though it was insulting, I didn't show a reaction. I looked away and turned my attention to the window.

We're out of the city and it looks like we're heading deep into the jungle. Where can our helicopter take me? I hope I made the right decision to go with that man.

"How will you explain this to Caleb huh?! I'm sure he'll agree with me that, it's a really bad idea for taking this-- thing, with us"

It said ringingly. My ears were ringing so I looked at it. We stared at each other for a few seconds but I cut it off because it might annoy me even more.

"Can you please shut up?"

I looked at Calid who was next to the cursed woman. He was just looking out the window with his arms crossed. This bleeding arm caught my attention.

"You alright?"

I asked him, looking at his arm.

"Don't stare at him!"

The woman screamed. I was surprised because of the strength of his scream. What is the problem?

"Davis, can you please lower it down?"

The pilot, who had been listening to what the woman Davis had to say, spoke. This girl is crazy. Tsk tsk, it's good and I don't blame it.

I just kept quiet on the side and didn't even look at Calid. Davis might shout later.

"Shut up"

Calid said with his eyes closed. I don't know who it's talking to.

"I'm fine"

It woke up and looked at me. I just nodded and didn't speak. But a smile remained on my lips. When I realized this, I immediately stopped it.

'The h*ck was that?' I promised in my mind. Why do I feel like I fell for this guy right away even though I don't even know him that well? And wait, it seems like I'm forgetting something?

We've been in the air for an hour but we still haven't landed. It was dark down there, so I didn't plan to look down there because I might fall asleep. Calid is now sleeping.

I don't know if he is sleeping or just closed his eyes. Here is the girl next to him who has been observing me for a while now. I didn't realize I was paying attention to him because I might have been yelled at.

'It's quiet,' I whispered in my mind

I'm already outnumbered because I don't know them all. Why did I go with them? Ah yes, because I don't have a house to stay in anymore, I don't have any money. And I'm sure that people who want to kill Calid will hunt me down. For my safety, Calid probably won't hurt me. If he wanted to kill me, he would have just left me in the abandoned building.

After a few minutes, I seemed to be falling asleep. I tried to stop it but I failed. My eyes finally gave out, I couldn't stop the sleepiness.

"She helped me and I want to repay her"

"What you said, you took her in because she reminds you of her"

"Caleb, don't take this conversation to such issues.. What you are saying is not true"

"Well I hope I'm wrong brother."

I heard the conversation of two men with deep voices, which made me uneasy. I slowly opened my eyes and saw the sunlight. I am now lying in a soft bed not my bed

"Where am I?!"

I screamed. I immediately got up and looked around. Three people were in the room and now looking at me.

"You... don't remember?"

Calid asked. Little by little I remembered what happened before I fell asleep. By the way, I went with someone I didn't know. What else did I expect, I'm defenseless and still only petiks petiks in front of people I don't know.

"Maybe he was traumatized by seeing the shooting so there was a little forgetfulness... By the way you're in our private island"

I was stunned for a few seconds.. I was stunned when a man who looked like Calid said that. Who is now standing not far from the bed I'm sitting on.

"On I-island?!"

I screamed again. I'm not in the city anymore. And now here on an island owned by people I don't even know! It was wrong for me to go with Calid. Maybe later what they will do to me! What to do now?

I got up from sitting on the bed and ran near the door. I was about to open it when suddenly someone spoke.

"You wouldn't like the scene if you open that door right now"

When Calid reminds me. He looked serious that's why I followed my instincts not to open the door.

"W-where am I?!"

When I panic. It's because I went with them. But I still couldn't help being nervous and scared especially when they said we were on a private island.

"Miss Louisiana please don't scream, calm down would you?"

Said another man sitting on the single chair and looking at me. The men's auras are so intimidating that's why my stomach feels like it's churning with fear. It looks like I have a stomach ache.

"And why do you know my name!?"

I said with a hint of surprise. I saw how Calid and the man who looked like him shook. I turned around to the two and the man sitting on the chair. He was scratching his hair when he realized something.

"Am I not supposed to say that?"

It's a strange question. I noticed her blonde hair that matched her green eyes. It obviously has a breed. He scratched his hair and laughed slowly.

"Shut up Tyler"

Calid sighed as he massaged the senses. It's a good thing they're not close to me, because if they were, I'd probably think they'd done something bad to me. But they don't really look like the kind of people who'll do such things. That's why I breathed a sigh of relief when my body was checked.

"You still haven't answered my question.. Why do you know me and I haven't introduced myself to you?"

I'm squeezing. I was just reassuring my safety so I wanted to know how they recognized me.

No one spoke to them. The only thing the two other than the man in the chair did was look at me. There is still a stain on my face. It's really wrong for me to be here.

"If you don't answer me.. I'll just leave"

I promised to open the door. My hair stood up when I saw a dirty man at the end of the hallway. I covered my mouth due to shock. My knees suddenly went weak but not enough to make me kneel on the floor. It just trembles and seems to give any second.

"OH MY GOD!"

I screamed in fear. Why is there a d*goan man at the end of the hallway? It's not impossible for that to happen to me that's why my hair stood up again. I backed up from the stand, but something hard hit me.

I heard her breathing heavily, she was wearing an expensive perfume that's why the person behind me caught my attention.

"I told you"

His tone was straight. I looked up at him and saw how tall he is compared to me. I also just noticed that it has a small mole near its eyebrow.

"Tyler, I told you to clean up the mess.. look what happened"

I heard Caleb talking to Tyler in the room. I couldn't move from where I was standing as if I had become a statue because of fear. If that's what happened to that person, what will happen to me? Will i end up just like him?

"Don't be afraid.. we won't hurt you, only if you promise me one thing"

Calid said while tapping his right shoe on the floor repeatedly. I gulped and nodded at the same time.

"What's that?" I'm a weak question.

"Stay here with me"

This is a calm promise.

I blinked because of what he said. What? Can I stay here with him? Does that mean we'll live in the same roof? Well obviously this is his island after all! All the houses here belong to him!

I was speechless. What is this man going to say? He wants me to stay by his side? I thought that if I went with him, he would be able to hire me as an assistant, but now?

"Umm" I still can't speak, if I was speechless before now it's like I'm speechless.

This man, he's not offering me a job.. He is giving me a shelter! And on top of that he wants me to live with him! God, Holy Mary...How can i live with someone who would probably k*ll me....

I remained staring in front of Calid. Speechless and passive. My brain is still processing what he said earlier. I saw Tyler and Caleb come out of the room and I guess they were going to see the bloody man. I just didn't look at them and kept facing Calid who now had his hands in both pockets.

"A-are you sure?" I finally uttered after a long silence. Calid tilted his head to the side while still looking at me. His hair fluttered when he did that. His gray eyes were so beautiful yet cold.

"You helped me, and I would like to turn back the favor. It's for your own safety too, apparently I'm very sure you'll be dragged into this mess, they saw you with me after all."

This is a straightforward explanation. My nose is about to bleed from the length of his English. But I shook it off and gulped, trying to find the right response to what he just said.

"Yes, no, you drag me into this so you'll have to take the responsibility.. A-and you won't hurt me, right?"

I assure you. Maybe there is something in return for him staying with me in this house. Most likely I will become a slave if this man has bad intentions towards me.

"And why would I hurt you?" He asked with an amused tone. I saw a quick smirk on his lips but it suddenly disappeared when we heard his phone ring.

"Tsk" Calid irritatedly grabbed his phone and answered it. He moved away from me and started talking to the person on the other line. His forehead was wrinkled and he seemed to have a bad trip.

"Take care of that right now, then come back here."

That's all I heard him say. He hung up and came to me. I'm still here where I was standing before. I did not cough even a single strand.

"I'm leaving, you stay here and wait for me"

He said before walking away. I turned to face his back, he was walking down the hallway while wearing his leather jacket.

While walking, he met Caleb. The two talked before leaving together. The bloody man in the hallway is gone, so I can breathe a sigh of relief. I hope that person is okay.

Now that I'm alone here I don't know what to do. I looked out the hallway window and saw the beach. I was amazed at the beauty of the scenery, but I shook my head and said to myself 'don't be obsessed with the beauty of the place or the people here, you can ruin it!'

"What did I get into"

I sighed before returning inside the room. I looked around the whole room and I guess all the things here will be loved.

The bathtub in the comfort room is not an ordinary bathtub, it is made of rare material because it is blue in color with a shine. And the shower is automatic. Even the glass doors around the room are automatic.

High technology runs the electricity of this house. That's why I'm so amazed. After I finished going around the room I went out to the balcony. It looks like this room is on the second floor because I can see the sea. There was no one around, only a yacht I could see on the shore.

In the distance I saw a helicopter take off. Maybe that's where they were riding Calid. It went farther and farther until I could no longer hear the sound of its running.

The house was so quiet, only the splash of gentle waves and the silent blow of the wind could be heard. It was peaceful, as if I was living in the house that I've been dreaming to have.

"Can I really live here?" I asked myself.

I was thinking when suddenly there was thunder around my stomach. I winced as I remembered that I had nothing to eat. I walked out of the room and observed the surroundings.

I first made sure that there was no one else but me in this house. After making sure there was no one else, I went straight to the kitchen. I hesitated to open the fridge but in the end my hunger won.

I saw cereal so that's all I ate. After I ate, I washed what I ate and then left the house.

I remembered that there was a yacht on the shore so that's where I went. I curiously look at it and examine its engine. I don't know how to run it. I signed and crossed my arms.

"There's no other way, do I have to stay here from now on?"

I said while tapping my feet on the floor of the yacht. I came down here and entered the house.

I remembered what Calid said earlier.

'You stay here and wait for me'

It keeps repeating in my mind. I just shook my head and decided to just wait for him. I'll talk to him when he returns, I will definitely say that it was my mistake coming with them. And I would like to return to the city.

I nodded at my own idea. Agreeing that it was a good solution for me to get out of here.

And that's what I did. I waited and waited. I was bored all day doing nothing but watching the clock. It's already 4 pm! And he's not home yet. I sighed in annoyance and walked up the stairs stomping.

Just when I was about to reach the end of the stairs the door of the house suddenly opened. It was Calid.

"Finally" I whispered. I walk down slowly while staring at him.

"Dianne"

He whispered under his breath while looking at me. I frowned, what? I saw how shocked he was, but then his expression changed. It turns from shock to being cold and distant.

"I'm back." Be said and nodded a little to me.

He sat on the couch and sighed, he looked tired. I was about to talk when I heard him breathing peacefully. He fell asleep. I remained standing at the end of the stairs while still looking at him.

"Who's Dianne?"

I whispered, curious about the woman he just mentioned.

Chapter 2

Loren's P.O.V

I approached the couch where he was sitting. I stared at his face for a few seconds then I whispered.

"Hey, are you really sleeping right now?"

I whispered making sure that he won't wake up. When it didn't work, I frowned. He said I should wait for him, then he will just sleep with me? Tsk, what a j*rk!

I crossed my arms. I'm still in front of him watching how he sleeps peacefully. He looked up and both arms rested on the back of the couch. I see how his Adam's apple slowly rises and falls when he breathes. His face is so gorgeous. Even his smell is intoxicating. He was out of this world.

I watched it for a few minutes. I swallowed when I realized that her body is also very beautiful. The white long sleeve he was wearing suited him. It is folded up to his elbow, while the two boyones above are not buttoned.

He's so pricking hot! Like is there such a person? It seems that God has blessed him too much? What about us who have nothing?

"I'm pretty too"

I promise. I sound jealous, and that's when it hits me. The h*ck Louisiana? Why are you jealous of a man?! I'm going crazy. I shook my head while rubbing my temple. My head hurts from what I'm thinking. I gave Calid another look and said.

"Well, I'll just talk to you tomorrow"

I said before going upstairs. If he wants to sleep in the living room, I'll be here in the room. When I entered the room, the orange sky was revealed to me. It's a sunset.

I leaned on the railings of the balcony and looked at the sea. Just as the sun was setting, the sky was immediately beautiful.

"As always, you're still sad to watch"

I said with a lonely tone. I don't know but something bothers my mind and heart when I see this scene. It seems like I'm missing something. It's like, I have a past that I can't remember. I sighed and walked into the room.

I can't do anything now, because Calid still has my cellphone. I forgot to take it from him earlier before he fell asleep.

I sat on the hammock near the window and stared at the ocean. This place is so unfamiliar to me yet it makes me comfortable. A smile appeared on my lips, this is the first time I felt so happy. It feels like something inside me was complete just by sitting here alone. And I don't know why.

I've been sitting in the hammock for an hour so I didn't realize I fell asleep.

It was late when I woke up. I slowly rubbed my eyes then got off the hammock. I stretched and looked alertly around. It's dark in the room because I didn't turn on the light. Only the outside light illuminates the room where I am.

After a while someone knocked on the door which is why I was surprised. I was about to ask who it was when I remembered that Calid was the only one with me here.

To this day, I still get nervous every time I talk to him. I slowly opened the door and saw him standing there with his hands in his pockets. He's wearing something different now, he's wearing black jogger pants and gray turtle neck long sleeves.

"It's already 8 pm time for dinner.. just come down if you want to eat."

He said while looking directly at me. I smelled Calid's expensive perfume. It's really addicting to the scent. Especially when it's useful.

I shook my head at the thought. A fake cough came out of my mouth, it was so awkward for me. I don't know what to answer to Calid. But thanks to my stomach everything is clear.

I'm hungry as hell! I haven't even had lunch yet! I only ate an apple while waiting for Calid. Ah! It's embarrassing. Who wouldn't be ashamed? My stomach just boiled in front of Calid!

"Let's go down stairs and eat"

Calid said in a low voice. I heard him cough a few times, maybe he was trying to stop himself from laughing. I pouted and followed after him. My pride was so hurt right now, it's so embarrassing that I just want to hide somewhere.

When we got downstairs and reached the kitchen, I still didn't approach Calid. Even though it's on the table and I'm sitting, I still don't go near it.

We stayed silent for a moment, until my tummy began to make noises again. I couldn't stand the shame anymore so I just sat across from him.

'Shameful, too much!' I said in my mind, I must be blushing because of embarrassment. But when I looked at Calid, he was seriously downcast. I looked away when I caught him looking at me. I looked down at my food and was amazed at how it was prepared.

He cooked this?

"You cooked it?" I will ask.

"Uh-huh" He said nodding.

The food was so fancy, I felt like I was in a five star restaurant because of the food. I don't know what the names of these dishes are but they look delicious.

"Eat"

Short order. I looked at him again and shook my head, I was ashamed to eat.

"You didn't like it?"

"H-ha? No ah.. it's just, I'm ashamed to eat" I honestly said.

"Don't be, eat it"

He starts eating and so do i. It's also embarrassing if I refuse and reject his offer. While eating I was quiet, even when I chewed there was no sound.

"Hey, what's your name again?"

He asked. I finished chewing before drinking water.

"L-louisiana Eren... Loren for short"

He nodded. I didn't give my full name because I had a hunch he already knew it. With their wealth, it is not impossible for them to search my background.

"And you are?"

I said, asking what his name is. He looked at me while drinking wine. It's envious and he's the only one who has it.

"Calid Andrious Monterion...call me Calid"

Calid was sipping on his wine glass while looking at me. I don't know but I seem to be attracted to its eyes. My cheeks reddened when I saw him smirk.

"Adorable"

He was whispering but I didn't hear what he said. I just keep eating. I was in a hurry because I might melt under Calid's gaze.

"Done eating?"

I looked at him and slowly nodded. I drank water first and was about to put away the food when Calid stopped me.

"I'll take care of that"

He volunteered. I blinked twice while looking at him. I looked at him curiously. Can he wash the plates? With that wealth, I didn't think he was smart. Well he did cook dinner but wash the dishes? It's far too different than cooking!

I couldn't because he started putting away and washing the dishes. Until the end I was just looking at him. I'm still surprised because he knows how to pretend.

"Aren't you going up yet?"

Calid asked while a few meters away from me. I want to talk to him regarding my return to the city but there is something else I want to talk about.

"I'm going up.. I just want to talk to you about staying with me at your house"

I'm straight to the point. No more caressing. I was ashamed to look at him. How is it, even just looking at him makes me melt.

"What about it?"

He put his hands inside his pockets and stared at me.

"Are you serious about your decision? I mean, you don't know me, do you? Then why would you take me in? And more importantly, why are you so kind to me? Do you expect anything in return?"

I kept saying. I saw how he stretched his neck before turning to me again. He yawned before talking to me.

"I already said it earlier, you helped me that's why I would want to repay you. And Miss Louisiana, I don't need anything from you.. if you want to leave here as soon as possible I'll take you to the city ​​tomorrow morning."

His tone was serious. The expression on his face was so empty, I can't read it carefully. I don't know if he is telling the truth or not.

After he said that, Calid passed through me and walked upstairs. Leaving me in the kitchen alone. I sighed.

"Did I make him angry?"

I asked myself. I just shook my head and went upstairs. I saw Calid enter another room, maybe he will sleep there. I also entered the room where I slept this morning. I fixed the bed then sat on the bed.

"It's my cell phone"

I remembered that my cellphone was already in Calid's, I forgot to take it from him. Maybe I'll pick it up tomorrow, maybe it's already asleep.

I lay down on the bed and tried to sleep. And because I just ate, I fell asleep quickly.

DINGDING DINGDONG

I woke up to repeated doorbells. I immediately got up and left the room. I peeked to see who was at the door but I didn't open it. Do I know who that person is? And because the front door has a glass wall, I can see who is outside. I'm curious because it's a girl, maybe it's Calid's girlfriend, I'll be able to tweak it.

"Stupid! How long are you going to wait for me here! Calid open it!"

The woman screamed. My eyes widened when he started to scream. Jusko, maybe this is his girlfriend, let's do it! I quickly went upstairs and knocked on Calid's bedroom door. I have knocked several times but the door still does not open. This man is asleep and no one can wake him up!

"Calid I'm coming in"

I remind you before opening the door.

I was stunned by what I saw. Calid just got up from the bed. He was sitting on the bed while half of his body was covered with a blanket. I could almost see the parts I didn't want to see because of the light in the room. Does he sleep like that? Not even a cover?!

"Ahhh!"

I screamed. I covered my eyes but still seemed to be looking at him.

"shut up"

His voice was so deep and grumpy. His voice in the morning is also attractive. What if I have it with me every day?

"M-someone is looking for you downstairs.. please hurry because he's screaming!"

I shouted before leaving the room. I leaned against the door and covered my cheek. It must be blushing from shame, can you see a body like that first thing in the morning! My whole body felt hot because of that, I slapped my face to forget what I saw but I still couldn't get it out of my mind.

"Don't be such a p*rvert Loren! Shu! Shu! Get out of my mind!"

I said to myself while still slapping myself. I feel like a fool here. Why is he sleeping like that? And why didn't he even speak when I said I was going to open the door!? It's his fault that I saw his body! It's his fault not mine!

"And you really blamed him. You're the one who snuck in!"

I will tell myself. While teaching, teach yourself.

"Are you still sane?"

I didn't realize that Calid was already outside and saw me talking to myself. Why am I always embarrassed in front of him? Shame! I just want to hide in the ground again.

"someone is looking for you"

I said ignoring his question. Shame!

"So noisy, come with me"

He walked down the hallway and so did i. I just followed him until we left the house. The woman's glaring gaze was revealed to us. I didn't show up here because I might be attacked suddenly.

"So long!"

It screamed again. I flinched when I saw her look in my direction. He looked at me before starting to speak.

"So it's true? You take someone home?"

He asked. I'm nervous because they might come here because of me. I wanted to explain why I was here, but I couldn't insert myself into their conversation.

"I'll take her to the city today. It seems that she doesn't want it here"

My eyes widened. I didn't say I didn't like it! My only thing is that I want to go back even though I have nothing to go back to. Yes, no, why am I going back, I have nothing to go home to. I have no one to be with at home. I have no job and no money. Even my suitcase that was left there had nothing but clothes.

I'm having second thoughts about whether I'll even return to the city.

"I'm Ann and you are?"

He was looking at me with a smile so I returned it to him.

"I'm Lauren"

Let me introduce myself briefly.

"Can I come in? I've been outside for a while now, please sit me down. Besides, Calid, I have to take care of your arm wound. It'll be bad if it gets infected, I'll be the one who's angry with Caleb."

The woman said then went straight inside and sat comfortably on the sofa. I wonder why he reacted like this, shouldn't he be angry with me? Oh, maybe this isn't Calid's girlfriend and I overthink it?

I looked at Calid's arm. I remembered that he had a wound on his arm, only now did I pay attention to his bandaged arm. He was wearing a white t-shirt and black jogger pants, which is why I couldn't see the bandage on his arm because of the white cloth.

"My wound is fixed. You don't need to look at it every day. And one more thing, don't come here from time to time, it's annoying"

Calid said grumpily while sitting on the opposite sofa from Ann. His hands are crossed while looking straight at me and the woman on the sofa.

I remained standing while they talked. But eventually I left and went to the kitchen. I mixed two coffees, it was just right because it was already six in the morning. I brewed Dark Coffee for Calid while I brewed it with milk for Ann

I placed the cup in front of the two of them in the living room. They looked at each other before Ann suddenly spoke.

"Is this man enslaving you?"

He suddenly asked while still pointing at Calid. I saw how Calid frowned while looking at Ann. It was obviously annoying. I scratched my head then shook my head and said "No."

The woman nodded and then looked at the cup in front of her. He smiled and happily drank it.

"You're really good at mixing coffee! Take my taste!"

He shouted energetically. I smiled because of the compliment, I looked at Calid who was now looking at the cup of coffee. He just stared at it then looked at me.

"Don't you bet dark coffee?"

I scratched my head. I thought it was wrong that this was his taste. I saw a smile on his lips. He reached for the cup and took a sip. He didn't say anything so I frowned.

"He didn't even compliment me" I whispered to myself. I made sure no one could hear but I was shocked when Calid spoke.

"It's good, I like it" he said before drinking from the cup of coffee again. After hearing that, I turned around and left the living room so they could talk. I was embarrassed because Calid heard what I whispered to myself earlier.

I went to the kitchen and wanted to cook. But I was ashamed to interfere with the things here, so I went back to the living room and asked Calid if I could use his kitchen.

"Caleb told me everything. Why and how you let Loren stay here."

Ann made a serious promise.

"Keep out of this matter Susanna"

Calid's deep voice grumbled across the room.

The room became silent for a second, as if their conversation was intense.

"Okay okay! Don't use that name on me, I don't like it!"

Ann said with a pitched tone.

I wondered if there was another reason why Calid embraced me. If there is another reason, what is it and why doesn't he want to tell me? I remained leaning against the wall waiting for them to finish talking before asking what my real purpose was.

Chapter 3

Loren's P.O.V

"Um, do you guys want breakfast?"

I asked after leaving the kitchen. I was looking at Calid, but Ann answered.

"Can you make me an egg sandwich please?!"

It said cheerfully. I nodded while smiling. I looked at Calid again, waiting for what he would say. He was just sipping on his coffee while looking outside. When he felt that I was looking at him, he looked at me.

"I'm good, I don't eat breakfast"

I just nodded and went to the kitchen to do what Ann wanted. I make a four egg sandwich in case Calid wants it too. He's just embarrassed that I made his breakfast.

"here you go"

I put two sandwiches in front of Ann, she was so happy when I served it to her. I also placed another plate in front of Calid. I gave him one egg sandwich while the last one was mine. I bit into the sandwich while sitting in another chair. Calid was on the long couch while Ann and I were on two single couches.

"Eat it Calid, Loren made it hard for you so you should be greatful because he made you too!"

Ann said with her mouth full. I would have liked to see him speak with his mouth full of food when Calid said it.

"Don't speak while eating Susanna"

I see how Ann answered. Maybe he doesn't want to mention his full name. Ann didn't speak anymore so the surroundings were quiet. A few seconds ago Calid whispered.

"Thanks"

He said weakly. But it was heard because the surroundings were quiet. I saw Ann drop her sandwich on the plate while gaping. He suddenly pointed at Calid while snickering in disbelief looking at it.

"Did I hear right? You said thanks?!"

Ann shouted. I was confused by his attitude. Didn't Calid thank anyone? So Ann was surprised when she thanked me?

"Shut up Ann"

He said rudely. He reached for the sandwich and bit into it. We just ate and didn't talk anymore. After eating a sandwich I took a bite.

"Ahh, I want to say something Calid."

My introduction. He looked at me with both hands crossed. He didn't speak, maybe he was waiting for what I had to say.

"Ahh, it's my phone, do you have it?"

I will ask. He seems still shy.

"Oh right. Your phone"

He stood up and went to a drawer. He took something from there then faced me and presented my phone. I was about to take it when he suddenly raised his hand slightly. I frowned because of that.

"By the way, Calid. I'll check your wound for a moment, huh"

Ann said while focusing on eating the Sandwich. I looked up at Calid who now had one hand in his pocket while still holding my phone. I tried to take it even though I was still sitting. Annoyed, I stood up and tried to reach for my phone.

"Give it to me"

I'm really annoyed. Is it a trip to play with me? He knows that our height difference is big and then he purposely raised it.

A smirk was forming on his lips. It annoyed me even more, so I could feel the wrinkles on my forehead. A few seconds ago, he completely gave it to me and then went straight out of the house. I saw him take out his phone, he was going to call someone.

I looked at my phone and was surprised because it was fully charged. Did he charge my phone last night? I just shook my head and opened it. I smiled when I saw that my phone was connected to Wi-Fi. I was happier when I realized that there was a signal on this island.

I don't want to leave here.

Calid's P.O.V

"Give it to me"

She was trying to reach out for her phone from my hand. I lift it even higher making her crouch her nose from annoyance. Her forehead was creased while her lips were trembling a little. I wanted to tease her more because of that cute expression but I stopped when I felt my phone vibrate.

I left the house and looked at my phone. It was Caleb.

'We need to talk' He texted.

I dialed his phone number, Caleb immediately answered my call right after I called him.

"The transaction for the new weapons has to be done by today. You need to be here right now Calid. It's very important, I can't handle it because it's assigned to the leader of the group. And you know that you're the Boss , so get your lazy ass here right now"

Caleb immediately opened up to me. I signed and nodded.

"I'll be there in an hour"

When I said that, I hung up. I entered the house and was about to go up to the room to take a shower and get dressed. When I remembered that Ann actually checked my arm.

"You don't have to check my wound today Ann.. I have something urgent to do"

I kept saying. I heard Ann complain but I just ignored it and continued to climb the stairs until I got to the room.

I showered and got dressed. Then I left the room. I even met Louisiana in the hallway. It also went up.

"Are you leaving?"

She asked. I stared at her face for a second before answering.

"Yes, and I'll be back late at night so you don't have to wait for me. And um, I'll take you to the city tomorrow so just spend another night here"

I said realizing that I promised last night that I'll take her to the city today. He can't come with me because I'm going somewhere else. She'll be in danger if I take her with me so I decided to take her to the city tomorrow.

Louisiana didn't talk for a moment so I decided to leave for my business. But I stopped when he spoke.

"Ahm there's no need. I'll talk to you tomorrow about my stay here. I-i don't want you to take me in for free so I want to make a deal. Of course you'll benefit as well as I will so don' t w-worry."

Her tone was shy. She was all red and I kinda find it cute. I stayed there for a minute before nodding. So, she wants to stay here. That's good. I'll gladly take her in.

"I'll see you later then" I said before leaving her right there all red like a tomato.

"So, let me ask you a few more questions"

Ann said while looking at me with her squinting eyes. We were talking outside here, in the small pool area of ​​the house. I was sitting on a chair while Ann was lying on the tanning bed with an umbrella. Earlier when I saw the pool area I was amazed because of its beautiful construction. It even has a jacuzzi on the side, which is why I'm excited. But of course I won't use that! Shame on the home owner.

"Alright."

I still feel a little awkward. Ann has been interrogating me for a while now. He asked my full name and age as well as where I live. Well, I didn't complain because he was also telling his information. Ann was just 21, three years younger than me.

"Do you fancy my older cousin?"

My sparrows grew at that question. One of the information he said about him is that he is Calid's younger cousin. And I know he is referring to Calid in that question! I? Like and fantasize about that man? Who doesn't I would never!

"N-no! As for you, I've only known your cousin for a day and you're going to ask that right away"

I still stammered even though what I said was true. It seems like I'm lying!

Ann was staring at me while smiling. It's like it's thrilling, I don't know. He nodded while looking at me with inexplicable looks. Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief when she changed the topic. We talked for a few more minutes and lost track of time.

"I'm hungry"

Ann said while rubbing her stomach. We're in the living room because it's too hot outside. I looked at the clock and saw that it was eleven in the morning.

I went to the kitchen to cook lunch for Ann when she pulled me out of the house.

"Are you going to stay here? Let's go shopping!"

Ann shouted enthusiastically. I pulled it until we arrived in front of a yacht. This is what Ann rode to get to this private island. But wait? SHOPPING? where are we going to go shopping and I can't see any other island here in the middle of the sea?

"Where are we going?" I asked while Ann was still holding my hand. When we boarded the small yacht, Ann let go of my hand.

"Genesis"

I was surprised when a man spoke inside the yacht. When I looked back, it was just facing us while holding sunglasses. He was wearing a black polo and dark blue jeans. It looks like a bad boy.

"Ah, by the way, I'm with someone.. Khillian, I'm sorry, huh.. did I make you wait for a long time?"

Ann said in a very sarcastic tone. I heard the man snicker then grin. A deep dimple appears on his right cheek. I raised my eyebrows because these two seem to have a conflict.

"Don't worry I didn't wait that long"

Khillian said while putting his sunglasses on.

He didn't wait that long? We were in the house for almost four hours earlier. He waited for almost four hours in this yacht? Why didn't he enter the house??

The sun is already hot because it's almost noon, that's why we went to the dark part of the yacht.

"Let's go shopping, I want to eat seafood and buy clothes for sister Loren"

I heard Ann say to Khillian. This is the driver of the yacht, so he climbed inside and started to operate what we were riding. We went to the deck of the yacht and sat there. I didn't say a word and just let Ann take me somewhere.

How is it, there is no one at Calid's house. Surely no one would dare to go there and steal, right?

"I told you! It's fun!"

Ann shouted after we got on a jet ski. I got down here and knelt on the sand feeling sick. I will throw up everything I ate earlier.

We are now on an island that is visited by tourists. It is a resort because there are many people and there are also many stores around. It was a 20 minute ride to get here.

"Let's go there sister!"

Ann pulled me everywhere.. I don't even know how much she is spending. I've been telling him for a while that I don't like what he wants to do but he won't let me down. He still tries to include me in his pranks. But I gotta admit it, it's quite fun being with her. I just experienced this.

"wait... Let's rest first oh"

When I beg Ann now she is pulling me somewhere. I'm out of breath from exhaustion. I don't know if this girl with me doesn't seem to run out of energy. It stopped and then faced me, it pouted then looked like a child while looking into my eyes.

"Sister please?" She gave me those puppy eyes again. I still couldn't say 'no' to him because of that.

"She's tired Gen, let her rest"

Finally! The man who had been talking to us one after the other also spoke. Is it a bodyguard and it looks like we've been being watched for a while.

"Shut up Khillian! You're not going to bond with me anymore, you're even poisoning Ate Loren! You've been wanting to take her away from me for a while now! Can't you see? I'm having so much fun with her!"

Ann said as if hostile. I can see his tears. Suddenly, something inside me felt Ann's loneliness. He may have experienced this just now. She got emotional because she thought everything was against her happiness. She was longing for something like this but.... She never had the chance to. Just like me.

"Now, now... Calm down sis"

I looked at Khillian who was now in front of Ann and was coaxing her. These two are brothers, well that explains why they're always fighting.

I saw that Ann was avoiding Khillian's hands, which is why I laughed a little. Ann must have sulked at her sister. He continues on comforting his sister but Ann on the other hand keeps on avoiding her brother.

While leaning against a tree, I watched how the two lost. I closed my eyes for a while when my head suddenly hurt. I don't know why but it hurt more the longer I stared at the two brothers.

Khillian was patting Ann's head while saying something. But I couldn't hear it because something was ringing in my ears. I shook my head trying to get rid of my headache.

"Loren are you alright?" Said Ann. I smiled at him and nodded.

"I'm...fine"

I'm lying. My head keeps spinning. But I didn't make it obvious to my friends.

What's happening to me?
