When I got out of the monster building, I immediately went to the parking lot of the car I had borrowed from the house next door that I bought. I can’t buy a car without using the credit card I probably had already cut by Kuya. Very heartless when it comes to me. When Grandma really comes home, I'll report her.

I quickly pulled the car over to Colt Vierco's house. I heaved a sigh when I realized that I'm going to a stranger's territory. Territory of monsters.

For a moment my eyes turned to my cellphone in the seat next to me. Unregistered number, but hell yeah, I answered it.

"Ms. Salvador, I know your actions are unkind. But, please, act like that in front of Colt. You won't like it when he gets mad. He doesn't like sharp tongues," a reminder told me. Flix Vierco.

"I know, so shut up your mouth, before I bleed that," I said angrily when I remembered his threat to me earlier.

"If you're going to obey me Ms. Salvador, I won't say anything to Cairo. One more thing, you need Colt's protection. He can give you the safety you wanted. The Lorenzos can't move you as long as they're in power you and Colt, "he said knowing I had a smirk on his lips.

"Oh so you think you can get me into that. What do you think of me, unable to protect myself? I'm sorry Mr. Vierco, I know your games," I seriously returned while staring at the red light. Hopefully the traffic will last a year.

"Really, then, let's have a deal."

Tempting.

I'm hiding because of the world I grew up in and then I'll just go to its deeper well?

"What gives?"

"Excuse me?" I heard Flix say. My eyes rotated automatically before stepping on the car’s accelerator.

"What do you want from me? Of course, it's not just because you want to talk to Colt that you're doing it. I know you want to get something else from me. And I'm pretty sure that's not my virginity, "I said frowning. "What can I get back? I don't need protection, I can do it myself."

Flix Vierco let out a crisp laugh. It took a few seconds and that was enough for me to hear his laugh music. But I can’t get over his handsome face and voice. There is still a lot hidden behind his almost perfect face.

"You're smart, like how my people described you." Suddenly my head heated up. He investigated me. "We'll talk about it when you get to ask Colt to come here."

"Asshole!" I said angrily before turning off the call. My eyes went to the waze of the car. I will reach the Fuentabella subdivision in just five minutes.

The annoyance I feel can’t be erased. Flix seems to enjoy blackmailing me. If so, I'll play along.

"Ma'am Salvador?" The guard at the gate of the subdivision asked me. I answered with a soft nod before starting the car again. Rich people and their power. It was only Gasino for the Viercos to give notice to the guard who greeted me. Flix and his games! Ugh, if I wasn’t just stuck in the situation I wouldn’t be taking the dangerous path of my life.

I immediately parked the car outside the large gate of Colt Vierco’s house. I won't deny that the beast has a taste. The structure of his house is beautiful. Well thought out.

I rang the doorbell. No one answered, of course, maybe it was still asleep. Flix said her brother has been lazy since his wife passed away. Locking himself alone in this house, what brain does that Colt have?

I know I understand him in part that he still can’t move on due to the loss of a wife. But he cannot be imprisoned for life. I bet his enemies loves what he's doing right now.

I pressed the doorbell button again. Animal, how long will I have to wait here outside?

I heard my cellphone ring. The bastard sent me a message. "Tame the Beast Ms. Salvador. I'll give anything you want, just do what I said."

I rolled my eyes, disbelief registered on my face. What did he think of me? From the safari that all the wild animals there I tamed so he took me to go to the den of his monster twin?

When I was not really opened by anyone inside I voluntarily entered. Tame the Beast he said, it doesn't matter if I just stare outside.

I entered the Beast den. Peaceful outside, but damn! You thought it was a haunted house inside. Very quiet, deafening. But I can feel the awrang coming from somewhere. It was as if someone would touch me at any moment.

"You must be Zairene," I said softly before picking up the glass picture frame, in which was the beautiful picture of Zairene. "Beautiful and innocent, yet, you tamed the Beast. I won't wonder why a Colt Vierco can't move." I smiled genuinely. Geez. The length of time since I smiled like this.

My eyes almost widened when the picture frame I was holding slipped. You kept falling and fuck, I broke it. What the hell?

I quickly picked up the shattered glass. And guess what, I cut myself. Tanga!

"Who the hell are you ?!" That voice resounded throughout the household. A man in front appeared with a dog in his side. Damn, gorgeous as Flix. It's just more dangerous.

I suppressed the moan that wanted to get out of my mouth when he pulled my arm hard. Bitch. Maybe he has no intention of breaking me, right?

"S-Sir, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," I said. An animal like that Flix, if I could only talk to his twin I would have done it. "Sir, I need to talk to you, Sir Flix ordered," I said while trying to stand up. This asshole dared to push me? Now I'm pissed off.

"I don't care about the company anymore! Doesn't he get that I don't want to come back ?! Get lost!" he said emphatically before closing the door on me.

"Sir! Sir, please, I might be fired when I don't come back with you!" Who cares if I get fired, that's even better. I will no longer ride the foolishness of Flix Vierco.

I slowly watched my arm redden from Colt's strong pull on me. Even my palm scratched. As well as the cut on my hand that was already dusted. If my hand is really infected, I will give Flix and Colt the injured part.

Again, my cellphone rang. I swear I agreed to Jane’s offer!

"What do you want ?!" I'm sick of Flix.

"My suspicion is correct," he said with a burst of laughter. "What did he do this time?" it seemed to Flix's own question.

"Your asshole brother pushed me! You two Vierco's pissing me off. Remind me to kill you once I'm done with your twin Beast." I said emphatically before taking a deep breath.

"Oh no, Keith, stop what you're doing!"

"Pissed off Vierco!" I said out loud before dropping the call.

Where am I?

Ahh.

I took another deep breath before kicking the door hard. Not thinking about what's going to happen after I broke the Beast's door.

Will he kill me?

Oh I doubt that.

I might even kill him.

Oh dear God, help me tamed the beast.

Because I don't want to get too annoyed with how I feel. I don't want to get involved in a tire I'm trying to run on.

Not that I don't want to go back to where I used to be. Of course I also left a lot in that life. My jerk friends.

I can deal with Lorenzo. I'm just afraid someone will get hurt. And now, I'm hiding something that I should just ignore.

And now.

Colt Vierco, let's count!
