17 Doting Ethan

The shadows are fast like her bullet. She need back up and think of one thing. To kill.

She call her ally in China. She pull the drawer swiftly and the gun, loading it and aimed the ninja on his arm not on fatal part. He pulls out his swords like he wasn't even injured.

She reach her mask and put it on. She waited for him to come closer to her and then she fired his chest and he was throw on the floor. She stood, wearing her pajamas. She hit both of his pulse and another shadow came with his samurai. She duck down before they even cut off her head.

She fire her gun on his center and another came up after another. Just how many are they? They ban guns here in China so, maybe she have to use some ninja equipment. But where is she going to get it?

The door burst open and Chenxi's men came for her backup. Just in time. She took the other samurai and fight with other ninja, swift—but she's faster than they are. One by one, she slashes their spine and finish few on the balcony. Blood on her body… and she finished one last ninja. She didn't kill him. She drag him in front of the Chenxi's men.

"Who send you?" they start interrogating and pulling out the mask of the ninja. They started speaking in Mandarin.

"A message for the great woman, I'll come to you sweetheart. Just wait for my arrival."

She laugh and reach her gun and finish off his head. Her backup are quite surprised on her.

"Are injured, Lady Brina?" she shook her head. "We will clean this and checked you in to another room." She wave her hand and texted her pilot. "You're leaving?" she nodded and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

Ethan frowns when he received a message from Lou. He immediately call her but she's not picking up. He keep calling and pacing back and forth on his balcony. Then she pick it up.

"The f*ck! Who is trying to assassinate you in China?" Then he forget that she doesn't speak. "Okay, text me." He hang up and then in few seconds she texted.

"Just some punk. I'm on my way to airport. I'll be there in two hours."

"Okay. Send me your selfie." She did send him her selfie with time and date in Beijing. He sigh in relief and look out the lawn.

He don't know how to protect her this time. She was far away from home, from where he is and from where Enzo is. Her sister is really reckless and if she marry Gabriel—would she be protected? However, she can take care of herself and ninjas who attack her aren't that high class assassins.

There are more high class assassins around the world and the man who was so obsessed to have her. But since she built her own empire of agents—she's capable on protecting herself. But still, he couldn't help but to be protective of her sister. Telling Gabriel? He don't trust him truly. If her sister trust him, then he will trust him as well.

He fish his keys and drove his car to the city. He couldn't help but to be a little floating. He immediately stepped on the brake of his sports car and almost hit the woman. The woman growls and smack the hood of his Audi.

"Shit." He got out from the car.

"Are you trying to kill me asshole?! Can't you see that it's red light?"

He scoff and pull his shades off leaning on his car. The woman frown and her sour face makes her look adorable. She was surprised to see him in the city. Probably, he wished that she missed him. But it looks like she doesn't.

"Ohh, when did you become so adorable these past few months, my dear?" She's so adorable wearing that plump pink dress that compliment her porcelain skin.

"Do not call me 'dear', asshole." She walk off. He only chuckled and enter his car again. He turn left and drove slowly while watching her walking on the corridor of the building. He park his car near her and he got out lock it and walk with her.

Her eyes are glaring at him like a dragon. His little cute dragon. She walk briskly though she's wearing wedge heels shoes. He didn't even increase his walking since he got long legs. She gasped when her ankle twist and got out of balance. He grabbed her small waist before she even fall.

"Ahh," she hissed and hold on his arm.

"You alright." The male's baritone voice send electricity through her veins, mouth gaping up at him.

Damn she smell so good. Sweet fragrance of the nectar of a flower. He lean over and pull her up. They stay faze at each other, feeling each other's breath. He tilt his head ready to suck and bite that supple lips. She suddenly blinks and stand straight.

"Ah, thanks." She push herself a little.

"Where are you going?"

"Just—none of your business." She look away. He look down on her chest and damn—her dress is too showy. She frown on where he is looking. He shook his head with tsk.

"Why are you wearing so little?" She scoff. It wasn't that little. It only show a little of her chest and her dress isn't that showy.

"I'm leaving." She walk off though her ankle is hurting. He pinch the space between his brows and watch the woman walk slowly. He take few strides and pull her into his arm. "Hey!"

He bring her to his car and put her inside. He walk briskly to the driver's seat and lock it. Looking back at her who is puzzled. He ripped her dress in front of her chest and she scowl at him still confused. He throw his jacket in front of her and drove to the boutique.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" She scold.

What's wrong? It is her damn dress. It seduce him. Her phone started ringing and it was her boss. She answer it and she nervously agreed on the boss. The stupid man.

"Hey, I have to go back to work." She demand him.

"Of course, until you change your clothes."

He stop the car on the nearby boutique of Chanel and make her put the jacket on. He drag her inside and make her sit on the sofa as he choose dress that isn't that showy. She massage her ankle and he demanded for a dress that's too conservative. He kneel down and massage her ankle.

"Does it hurt?"

"Hmm."

"Wear flats." He choose a shoes that worth few thousand and make it fit on her.

"Ethan, I am fine. I just have to go back to work."

"You're new on your work place?"

"Mmm."

"Don't you want to go back with me?" He look up at the doll face of the woman.

"Ethan, I can take care of myself."

"Really?" He was still vulnerable that she's too independent. Though she was independent, he wanted her to be dependent on him. He wanted her to be doted more. She try on few dresses and he bought it all for her. She weaned on him but he insisted.

He drive her to the head office of Lawson's. He even walk her to her floor though she insisted on not to do it. And since he's also visiting Gabriel she left her and he went to the CEO's office. He settled down on the sofa and watch him finish stacks of folders.

"My woman is working here in your company." Ethan started.

"Mistress or girlfriend?" Gabriel asked without looking at him and concentrate on his papers.

"Ex-girlfriend." Gabriel closes the folder and look at him. "An analyst of one of your managers? Her job from me was way more better."

"Like—secretary?"

"She's a good assistant though she's an intern back then. I seduce my employee. Tsk. I never done it but to her."

"Hmm. Love is in the air?" Gabriel's upper lip lifted.
