The moment his seductive gaze landed on her sharp almond shape eyes, myriad of memories gushed down in front of him. It was as if their first encounter was as fresh as yesterday in his mind.
[two years ago]
The booming bass music that can move one's hearts to its rhythm reverberated across the high-end night club. The flashing lights dance along with the crowd on the dance floor. Hundreds of noises envelop the place yet, deep inside the site, a remote room was devoid of all the thumping tumult.
Inside a seemingly luxurious noiseless lounge, Dragon was leisurely drinking by himself. Who would have thought that inside the most bustling place in the night of country y, hold the most silent place in the country?
The majestic man adores the company of solitary silence as he sipped another glass of aromatic, sweet-scented wine. At times like this, his men including Max were ruled to not disturb his rest. Hence, with his keen senses, he shifts his gaze on the door even before the doorknob turns.
When the door silently creaks open, Dragon swiftly threw a dagger, aiming at the person who dares interrupt his peace. Whether it was his own men or an enemy, the same fate will cast on him.
Alas, as swift as him, the person who's behind the entrance shut it again causing the dagger to set in the door. If the person was a millisecond late, the sharp bayonet would penetrate his skull.
Successfully avoiding his attack, the corners of his lips curled upward in amus_e_m_e_nt. 'Not bad.'
The second attempt the door opens, Dragon grace the person to enter. Now, he doesn't mind some entertainment since his interest was piqued. The intruder probably senses his odd welcoming atmosphere, thus she slightly peeks her head inside.
Dragon's brows knitted seeing an unexpected girl peeping her little head. She looks innocent and harmless yet, her flushed face indicated that she was drunk. After a second, the girl's melodious and adorable voice was heard.
"Uhm, I was looking for a thief..."
"..." Though Dragon didn't let his guard down, he tilted his head by her inquiry. He was neither curious nor enticed by her because it is possible that she was sent by an enemy, yet part of him is interested in this girl's tricks.
Sensing that the man was unmoving, Seraphina cautiously entered the room. As she slowly closes the door, she leaned her back against it.
*Hic*
Thoroughly examining the man's face in the distant, Seraphina didn't utter a word for a brief time.
Dragon, on the other hand, was emotionlessly observing her. If he based on her cute and short pink dress, she seemed unarmed and probably a drunk girl who lost her way.
Alas, that assumption immediately vanished being reminded that there are few men guarding this room from the outside. Thus, it was impossible for this girl to get her way here. He smirked as he was impressed by the girl's capabilities.
When Seraphina saw his bewitching smirk, she smiled brightly showing her cute dimples and even white teeth. "Mister, I was looking for a thief and after a thorough inspection, I am absolute that it was you!"
"Thief?" His voice made Seraphina's eyes lit up in an instant. She was all fired-up as if she doesn't sense the danger surrounding her.
"Yes! You stole this lovely, delicate and modest lady's heart!" Seraphina accused with certainty whilst shamelessly pointing her finger to him.
Dragon: "..."
"*hic* now, you're reflecting on your misdeeds, huh?" Seraphina as drunk as she was, accepted his silence as a yes answer which made her all proud and haughty. She continues to tap her feet while she placed her hand in her h_i_p_s as she waits for his reply. "Will you give it back?"
"Miss lovely, delicate and modest lady, what if I don't?" Dragon was bemused on her antics thus, he got along with it. After all, he wouldn't mind a little entertainment for a while.
Seraphina grin from ear to ear hearing his reluctance, she immediately sprints directly on his direction.
Dragon deliberately let her way to him as a reward for her little show. Though there is a high possibility that she would harm him, he's certain that the
end result will not be in his disadvantage.
Seraphina unreservedly pounces on him. Her intoxicating breath wafted instantly on his nostrils as their face only had a palm length gap. She mischievously giggles as if her expression says 'mission complete'.
"Then, you have to take responsibility, beauty. Marry me! *hic*"
