《Mr Lion, Please Divorce Me》


 1 That Nigh

    "Where am I ?" A soft and weak voice comes out from a female lead in this story.She just opened her eyes after feeling a very long sleep.Recalling her dream, she remembered her name is TianTian, as sweet as a candy, her appearance it is; big eyes, small face ,small body and long hair.A young girl from a common family, not poor but not too wealth also.In dream, her father is a traditional doctor and her mother is a traditional martial art teacher.She remembered she is not the only child , but she has 3 brothers who very dote on her and acts like the fierce guardians to every male who dare to take a step on her.Her life was very peaceful actually.It was until she offended a terrifying heir of Li Family; just like a handsome beast he was; came from no where. One accidentally, unplanned meeting with him in a club ,which she regretted so much for going there even though it was her first time going there.Thanks to her bestie WenWen; she must stepped to that club and then ''that accident'' happened, and next thing she remembered , she blacked out and everything was dark until...wait a second. Its not a dream right? It is her life, she is indeed TianTian so...


    ''Where am i ?'' TianTian repeated that question in her mind, seeing around her.She is on the bed, beside her is a machine to detect her heart and her right hand is attached with a plastic tube and some fluid flows inside, but it is not a hospital room.The room looks like a giant bedroom, enough to be a class for 100 students.This comparison she made based on her daily job as an elementary teacher. Its wall covered with flourish wallpaper which looks luxury as all other parts of the room, the curtain, the smart tv and others and it even has what seems as a balcony; it also has 3 other doors; guessing 1 of them is an out way door but don''t have any clue which one it is.


    ''"Auchh" a pain comes from her forehead.When she reflects to touch it, she realises her head is wrapped with white-band cloth.


    ''When I got hurt here?'' She tries to remember but no clue at all.Suddenly all flashback of that accident came to her mind.


    At that night, she remembered WenWen called her suddenly, in drunk tone;


    "TianTiann,.... I am sooooo saddddd. plizzz comee herreee...Im so lonelyy here..."


    Ah, WenWen must got brokenheart AGAIN... emphasizing tone for the word ''AGAIN'' coz since first time TianTian met WenWen in highschool until they already in twenties now, she could not counting how many calls she got from WenWen either she drunk or cried.WenWen is actually an attractive woman with bright brownish short fancy bob hair surrounding her skinny face.Her style isalso so modest, which what needed from her job, as a model.She is pretty, she just too aggressive and over passionate for anything about love. Easily believes flirting words from any handsome man she met, a fool woman but cute most all the time.As a friend, WenWen is a faithful friend for TianTian.In fact, WenWen is her savior during her highschool time. There was a time when TianTian was gossipped as a call girl, it caused by the jealousy of girls at class because a popular boy confessed his love to TianTian.Almost all girls believed the gossip, and only WenWen that stood up for her.But now, looks like TianTian always be her savior, so a worrymaker this WenWen...


    "Where are you now?" asked TianTian worry ,hoping the place is reachable.


    "Haah, where...hey...where is here? ooh oyaa i remember its Lion NightClub...come hurryy TianTian...i misssss youuu so muchhh... and the drink in here is sooooo goooddd; Hey fill my glasss more..."


    Twirling her eyes, TianTian gave a threat


    " Don''t you dare take another sip until i get there !!!"


    Thanks God, the Lion Night club is not too far from here.Even though TianTian never enter such a place but she knows it because it is a very famous club, so famous coz its regular place for all celebrities and rich people to have fun.Its also often become a background place for many scandals that you can watch in television.As a model, surely WenWen is a regular member there.


    Not too long after that, TianTian arrived there and immediately noticed some noise at the hallway inside the club.She horrified seeing the noise source came from WenWen; She was quarreling with some strange men.There were two men in suits, like some bodyguards, each of them was holding WenWen''s arm, dragging her out from some kind a private room while WenWen looks fighting back to be free.


    "Let go of meeee...you son of b****...Let gooo..." but their grips were too strong.In instinct, TianTian looked around and took a metal plate from a steward who just served drinks from another room.Ignoring the protest from the steward, TianTian gave some hard hits to those men''s back head.Unexpected attacks from TianTian made those men lost in balance and loosen their grip which giving a chance for WenWen to free herself.


    "Don''t you dare touch my friend!"


    Hearing TianTian''s voice made WenWen felt relieved, she right away run and hugged TianTian,


    "TianTian...you comeee..save me...i''m scareee. ." TianTian calmed WenWen


    "WenWen, what happened to you? Why these men captured you?"


    at that moment, both of them were at the mouth of the room.Without they realized, someone inside the room had given instruction to push them inside the room and then they heard...


    "Close the door. Leave us" A cold and sharp voice came from inside, it was not loud but sounded very intimidating.The guards immediately obeyed the command.The door was closed and those men stood at the door, were making sure no one could trespassing them.


    Inside the room, TianTian suddenly felt cold and she got goosebumps around her body, she realized someone inside the room had stared on them from beginning.TianTian knew Wenwen also felt the same, even more; She was shivered so much.Her eyes seemed fixed on something at their front, and terrified with it.She held TianTian''s arm so tight and whispered in fear, "I''m sorry....TianTian...what have i done...its my fault...I''m sorry..." TianTian noticed that WenWen too scared until it made her sober from her drunk.


    ''Why did Wenwen say sorry? What is it that make WenWen so terrified suddenly until she sober from her drunk?''


    To answer that question, TianTian followed the eyes of WenWen, tried to see what WenWen saw so terrified.


    Then she saw two men. (What? They are just human right? what so terrified about them?At least it is not monster or ghost...)


    TianTian continued observing, one of the men was sitting in a luxury long sofa lazily and he looked more superior than another man who standing beside the man.Tiantian could see that the standing man was busy with his handphone talking with someone.TianTian observed him first, he was quite handsome, ok he was actually very handsome, like a pretty handsome with his black long hair that tied neatly and the white line suit that he wore adding the elegant of his appearance ,reminding TianTian of a fox ghost character from fairy tale which turns into a handsome man, a white fox.Somehow TianTian felt this white fox could be as cunning as the fox in the story.With that kind of face, TianTian was guessing that a lot of women can be hypnotized by him easily but not TianTian coz he just not her type. She never trusts a pretty man.


    Meanwhile the other man.... In one look, TianTian could easily guessing that the sitting man is the boss.More than that, from his attitude, he looked like a king of the room (if it is a lion den, that means he is a lion king right?).He was also handsome indeed in his black suit; it so oppositely than the whitefox.With a short hair and fierce thick eyebrows, he could not be called pretty handsome but he was indeed fierce handsome, the face looked arrogant and intimidating.In fact, he was intimidating by staring on TianTian, at that moment their eyes met and TianTian felt surprised in her heart.


    His eyes seems like a lonely lion,so sharp and deep, somehow TianTian can felt the shadow of sadness in his eyes.But TianTian felt trapped in his eyes, both of them just stared to each other. For a moment no one of them were willing to release their eyes from each other.


    "Mr Li" The soft voice from whitefox kept TianTian back to the ground.


    "As your instruction, this girl (He looked at WenWen, making WenWen looked more pale) officially banned from this club and also all her jobs as a model in Li Company has been cancelled"


    "What?" TianTian didn''t believed what she heard, could they do that? Just now he was called Mr Li? Is he that Mr Li, the owner of Li Company?Li Company is known so well in international market for their products and their bussiness including entertainment and the agency where WenWen works.If it is that case, then this man, Mr Li really can make WenWen lost her job. This time WenWen really in a big trouble.


    She looked to WenWen, worried,


    "WenWen, what was really going on here? What did you do? Did you really offending these people?" Instead getting her answer.Tiantian saw WenWen immediately kneeled and bowed his body many many times.She begged for forgiveness, "I''m so so sorry, Mr Li.I was drunk, didn''t think clear, I didn''t know it was you... I''m sorry...I''m sorry...I''m sorry..." WenWen kept bowing her head so low until touching the ground.TianTian was so surprised to see WenWen like that.As she remembered WenWen was a very proud girl, she never easily bow down to anyone even to her own parents but now...


    In her mind, TianTian tried to evaluate the situation quickly; ''So WenWen did something wrong and make this king so angry until he decided to punish WenWen very bad.But what was her wrong? Did WenWen really deserve to be punished by taking all her job, it is same as making her unemployed.''


    As a bestie, TianTian knows even though during drunk, WenWen would dare to do any crossing line debts.A lot of terrible possible cases might happened occured in TianTian''s head but she could not be sure which one, the worst perhaps that WenWen said anything wrong? Insulted those men?She must know for sure so she can know how to help WenWen out from this trouble.She was really uneasy seeing WenWen like that.


    "WenWen, tell me what did you do wrong? Did you say something wrong? Hey, help me to understand the situation here...what was happened?"


    Didn''t getting any response from WenWen.TianTian decided to confront the king and the whitefox,


    " What happened in here? Can you explain why my friend have to beg to you like this? It seems not right for letting a woman kneeling down like this, Aren''t you a gentleman? " WenWen tried to stop TianTian but she kept continue,"So, what did she do wrong? If possible, let me pay for my friend''s mistake, just cancel your punishment and let her go"


    "No, no TianTian don''t do that..." begged WenWen, but as she could not take the situation any longer, WenWen finally fainted on the floor, "WenWen...WenWen???" TianTian checked her pulse like what being taught by her Dad.''Thanks God, she just faint, nothing serious, but i must immediately take her out from here.'' From her action, The king noticed this girl maybe not just a girl who only can talk.


    Like a faithful servant, the whitefox looked at the king and then he finally explain to TianTian,


    " Your friend, Ms WenWen has entered this room without being invited and seduced Mr Li."


    ''Oh ,that''s why....wait WHAT??? Just it?


    come without permission maybe rude but WenWen was drunk, it was an accident right? and seduce? Is seducing a crime? especially in this kind of place? An appropriate conduct, it might! But was WenWen deserve to lose her job just because she accidently seduced man in drunk?'' TianTian tried to digest the information she got and she looked to the king again, such a healthy man;


    ''A pretty woman like WenWen came and accidently seduced you in this club...IN CLUB! Wouldn''t you supposed to be happy, Man, what do you lost? Its not like you lost your virginity here...''


    More she was thinking she became more anger.''It seems ridiculous punishment WenWen got? Doesn''t it mean he just an arrogant rich man who trying to bully a commoner like WenWen? TianTian knows so well how hard did Wenwen''s effort to achieve her position as a top model till now. Being model was her life.Without supporting from her own parents and anyone, she never gave up and kept trying and now this man wants to destroy WenWen''s life? I can''t let it happen.


    "Mr Li, I know WenWen had make you angry by entering your room and seducing you.But she was drunk and didn''t know what she was doing.Doesn''t it too far to punish her by taking all her jobs? Beside...flirting and seducingare not harmful right? It can happens to anyone in this kind of place? Especially for the people like you."


    Hearing her words, the king was surprised, there never before a woman dare to argue with him, and this girl was even doing it not for herself but for defending somebody else. So naive, so pure...isn''t her?The King raised from his seat, approaching TianTian with anger stare, tried to more intimidating her.He knows soon or later this girl will give up foremost after knowing who he is , like other women.


    "I am not anybody.Do you know who i am?" He looked at TianTian as a lion who threatens its prey.


    But TianTian was not afraid, She fought back, stared back in anger to the king, because she really hates the arrogant rich people like Mr Li. So she was more angry than scare.


    "I know who you are, didn''t they call you Mr Li? As the owner of a giant company like Li company, how could you had so tiny heart?WenWen just drunk and what happened here was an accident.She didn''t planned to do it to annoy you.If you are a good person, you suppose to forgive her and let her go..."


    Mr Li blinked his eyes once, how could this girl not afraid to him after knowing his identity.Interesting...


    and ''A good person'' she said? what a laugh.Mr Li laughed ironically in his heart.


    He was born in a very difficult environment.Fighting alone for his right, and in the process, he learned not to trust anyone, especially women; like his own mother who abandoned him for money and desire.Her aunt and cousins who have two-faces. All women he knew in his life, tried to take benefit from his coz of his money or his status.But this girl was different, she hated him for who he is.Did she just pretend to be pure and naive?Deep inside the king''s heart, a strange desire born, a desire toward this girl.I want to defeat this girl.I want to see her cry.


    A little smile shown on his lip, but it made his face more fierce as his eyes kept staring on TianTian.


    " Unfortunately, I am not a good person.I cannot forgive your friend...but..." the king chose his word wisely and slowly, for he also had a battle inside his mind for what he would do later "You said you were willing to pay for your friend, didn''t you?" A smile on Mr Li''s face made TianTian felt she was stepping on a hole trap.


    Meanwhile the whitefox shocked to hear his boss giving a chance to a woman? a WOMAN? There was uncountable numbers of women who tried so hard to be with Mr Li, but none of them was success; and Mr Li didn''t give any chance to anyone of them.Why this girl is different? Does Mr Li attract to her? No, it can''t be.The whitefox looked at Tiantian ,she is not ugly but also not too pretty enough for a man like Mr Li.As a most wanted bachelor, Mr Li is surrounded by fairy-like celebrities and elegant models. This girl has small face and small body, make her looks like a little bunny. Based on the face and body,this girl definitely cannot compared with them but still...


    "Well, will you pay as your said?" Mr Li felt amused by seeing how TianTian confused to give an answer.


    "Y..yes...I did say that.If it can make you to return all WenWen''s job, as long as i afford to do it, i will do it." She kept thinking, is she doing right thing? but again as long she can save WenWen right now, its worthy.


    "Good!" In flash, the king gave a look to whitefox which be responded by a small nod, and without TianTian realised, the whitefox already took WenWen out and left TianTian alone with the king in the room.


    "What? Where did your man take WenWen? You said you''ll let her go?


    In panic, TianTian rushed to the door, willing to chase the whitefox...


    "If you go now, then the deal is off."


    TianTian stopped, she turned back...


    "Do you really let WenWen go...?"


    "I did.My man is taking her home safely right now" The king slowly back to the table, pouring 2 glasses of wine.


    "and returning all her jobs?"


    "Yes, that''s also. I let your friend free for now." He walked toward TianTian, naturally put the glass on her hand, which she accepted without she knew it.


    "What do you mean ''for now''?"


    "As long you do what you promise to me,


    then I will keep my promise too."


    The king raised the glass, signing her to drink with him.


    "Well,..what do you want me to do? As long it is not illegal...I..." She doesn''t care about the drink.She wanted everything got over soon and went home.So she put the glass on the table, which made the king pissed a little.The king drank his, and then poured the second wine.


    " You are not in the position to object, Little Miss..." He gave another sign, patting the sofa beside him, want her to sit beside him, closely.


    An alert ringed in her heart.TianTian wasn''t that fool not to know what was the message behind the signs he shownShe must get out from the room before too late.


    "No, I''m good in here. Mr Li, or maybe we can discuss this problem tomorrow at your office.Its already so late and I am worry about WenWen, I need to go now."


    As TianTian started to move, the king has already rushed in front of her,


    "Are you trying to escape?"


    TianTian moved backward to give the space between them but the king kept coming forward,


    "No, I am not.I will keep my promise, you can ask me to do anything but..."


    At the end TianTian could not move and finished her words because of the wall behind her, and also because without giving any warning , the king had pressed his lip on her lip, kissed her passionately.


    Feeling shame and anger, TianTian tried to slap the king ,but it had anticipated by the king.With his hand, he held TianTian''s hand. Feeling anger caused she couldn''t do anything, she just glared angrily to him,


    "Pervert"


    But it didn''t piss the king. Instead, he was enjoying the moment, all the reactions of her made him aroused.


    "Come on, didn''t you said before, flirting and seducing are not harmful in this place, especially for a person like me.... beside its not like you never kissed before ,is it?" The face of TianTian turned red ,in fact it was her first kiss. But now it was robbed by a pervert arrogant rich man which she hated so much.


    Guessing what in her mind, the king was getting excited '' So...it is her first kiss! So innocent; How could i never met this girl before; where have she been all this time...'' The desire in his mind and his body became too strong to be resisted. ''I want her...i want her right now... This girl is mine."


    and then the king continued kissing her again and again, as now the desire had controlled him, ignoring the rejection responds from TianTian, he kept continued pressed his lip, even more he started to put his tongue in her mouth, and as he took out its tongue, he continued smelling her body, made him desired to bite her neck, kiss it, taste it.TianTian can felt something below the king''s pants started growing hard , it rub her body too.The other hand of king started to explore her body wildly on her boobs.


    "Please...stop...I scare..." and then he stopped.He stared to the tears that came from her eyes.It freezed him.He could not believed himself.He stopped because of those tears.


    Realizing he had stopped, TianTian slapped his face hardly and then she run away, out of the room suddenly, surprising the guards.As they didn''t hear any commands from the king, one of them looked inside the room and hesitated to ask, "Ng, Mr Li...should we take that girl back?"


    "....No..., leave me alone..." Unbelieving what they heard, since when Mr Li just let a girl go like that? They didn''t take any action, which pissed the king so much, "GO...LEAVE ME!" then in a second, the guards had disappeared, leaving the king just stood in the room, he himself seemed didn''t believing what just happened.He stopped because the girl cried...didn''t he want to make the girl cry so badly before? What''s wrong with him...


    Not too long the whitefox entered the room, without fear, he asked to the king,


    "Are you done playing with that girl?"


    "..." The king turned around and walked as nothing happened, as he stood beside the whitefox , he talk in soft but sharp voice, a commanding voice.


    "No...I just start.Give me all information about that girl. I want to know everything about her..." and then the king left the room, and the club.


    The whitefox just took a deep sighed, he felt sorry to that girl ,that little bunny.She has been marked by the lion."Well, little bunny, this time you can run away but i don''t think you able to run away again for the next time..."

 2 My eyes are hur

    Back to the room, TianTian keep trying recalling the events after that night.But she feels so tired, her body feels so heavy and weak so she decides to sleep again.Maybe, next time she awakes, she would already gains more energy to explore the room.She closed her eyes, and not too long ,she could heard the door has opened and someone comes in.She wants to open her eyes at that time but she cannot.She feels very sleepy and then she is really in a deep sleep, not realizing beside her, has a nurse giving her an injection and then recording the result she sees in the monitor of heartbeats then that nurse goes out from the room.


    In her sleep, TianTian is digging inside her mind.Some memories come out like a movie.Right the day after the accident at that night in the LionNightClub, she of course checked WenWen''s condition right away after her teaching time.TianTian was relieved as she found WenWen at her own home, healthy and safely.WenWen repeated her regrets for offending Mr Liand dragged TianTian to this problem. She even vowed not to drink anymore from that day. Although she was curious what kind of deal that TianTian made with Mr Li for having her jobs back.TianTian could not telling what happened at that night, so she just made sure WenWen that nothing bad happened, she lied that she just need to work for Mr Li several weeks in exhange for WenWen''s jobs.


    Then after from WenWen''s home; TianTian knew she must kept her promise even though she was not willing to meet that king anymore.And she better doing quick.Her parents always taught her to never delay to deal any problems.After making her mind, she took a step into a shop.


    In the same time, the king had known all information about TianTian, he just felt amazed for how simple was TianTian''s life and how this simple girl had burned his desire so strongly.


    And right at that time, TianTian appeared in front of the king one more time at his office ,in Galaxy building ,owned by Li Company.


    The whitefox was surprised to find that the little bunny offered herself to come into the lion''s den.Maybe this bunny was not a weak bunny after all ,he thought but he didn''t say any words except assisted TianTian to Mr Li''s office.


    The king was so happy in his heart to see TianTian again but he also started afraid to lose his interest.Before this, he thought many plans to force her to come, but turned out it was not necessary.''Is she changing her mind now, knowing that I am Mr Li? Or perhaps now she, like other women, has a thought to take benefit from me?'' If that is the case, then he swore in his mind that he would destroy her at once.


    "So, Ms TianTian finally remember to pay her debts? Well it has cost more than before" asked th king coldly, touching his cheek, purposely reminded TianTian for a hard slap he got last time.


    TianTian surprised that the king had known her name ,but then she realised it was a piece of cake for a person such this Mr.Li, as the owner of Li Company to find out her name.


    "I did come to pay my debts coz i am a person who kept the words.... but not in your way like last time. Mr Li, I hope we can negotiating the way that more proper..." TianTian seemed nervous, recalled what happened last time in the club but she tried her best to keep her bravery in front of this king.No, she didn''t want to look weak at all. She didn''t want to lost.at least she has prepared some protection tools such as pepper sprayer in her bag in case if this king tried to do anything pervert like last time...


    A smile drawn back on the king''s lip.


    ''So brave, after what happened last time, this girl still dare to come here not because she wants me but just to keep her promise tome.I did not judge her wrong.She is my girl.''


    " Hm...okay, then what do you offer ,Ms TianTian?"


    Surprising that the king was willing to accept her thought, she got stuttered at the start,


    " Well, I...it must be something that i can help you...i am willing to do anything except having...having..." Her face turned red for unable saying a word.


    "Well, go on...having what Ms.TianTian?"Once again the king felt amused to tease TianTian as he actually already knew what word she tried to mention.


    "You know it !!"


    "I am afraid i don''t know." The King walked closely to TianTian, enjoying the nervous act that TianTian shown, she looked very cute.But knowing the king walking toward her, made TianTian awared, one of her hand had inserted her bag, holding the pepper sprayer to be ready used anytime.And as the king close enough to her, he whispered to her ear, "Is it like... having sex with me...?"


    Getting unprepared flirt from the king, TianTian jumped backward and losingher balance; But a strong hand prevented her from falling, instead, that hand pushed her close tightly to him.


    Shock and fear for anything unwanted happened again, TianTian panicked and then sprayed the king''s face and screamed, " Nooooo...!!!"


    The king shocked with the unexpected sprayer attacks, hereleased his hands and felt painful on his eyes,...


    "Auch, my eyes, Ms TianTian, what did you done? Aarch, its spicy on my eyes... Did you...did you just sprayed me with apepper sprayer?" This girl is unbelieveable!No one ever attacked him with such a silly tool.He laughed for himself, and felt admired this girl for what she planned to protect her self. ''Does she think with that thing, she can protect herself from me? Fool girl but cute.''


    "You deserved to get it, pervert... I told you I don''t want to...to be so...intimate with you..." TianTian stepped backward, she felt the negotiation was failed, this man only thinking about pervert things.''How could i make sense with him? I suppose not to come here anymore but how about WenWen....ah, for now, I better go far from this beast..."


    But when the king noticed TianTian prepared to go, he screamed so badly...


    "Aargh my eyes...its so painful...I think i could not see anymore..."


    "Is it that bad?" TianTian stopped her step, she didn''t expect that a pepper sprayer which she bought so cheap can give such a big harm.


    If TianTian noticed, actually the king just pretended to keep TianTian stay.Yes, he felt pain but it just a while ago, the effects was vanish little by little.


    "Should we go to the doctor? Let me check your eyes..." Feeling responsible for what happened, TianTian rushed closely to the king and not being aware anymore.


    At the moment she stood in front of him and tried to observe his eyes, The king took this chance to hug her and once again kiss her passionately.TianTian tried to free by beating him several time but the king didn''t loose his hug, even more he pushed her tightly to him, one hand of him hold her back head as he kept kissing her again and again.For almost a half of hour, TianTian''s mouth had been tasted by the king''s mouth and his tongue played inside her mouth, making she hard to breathe and her heart started to beat faster.This is the second time she was being force kissed by him, it looked her mouth had got familiar with his mouth.TianTian shocked realising that deep in her heart, she started not to dislike this kind of kiss, she felt a shame for herself that she could easily moved by this beast''s action. That she had the same desire like his.


    Getting her mind back to the earth, she pushed him with all her power, it worked because the king also decided to release her.


    "You... Prevert...Thieff...!!" TianTian''s face turned red like a tomato and she sudden became stuttered as she was too angry for what just happened.Seeing her like that entertained the king a lot.


    "I guess as a teacher , you didn''t swore a lot hahahaha Your words really are not too creative Ms TianTian..."


    "You....!!!" In anger TianTian tried to hit the king but the king looked so amused that he laughed so freely and didn''t care how many hits he got from TianTian, he didn''t response anything else but laughing.


    At the front of the office, miss Yan, who is Mr Li''s personal secretary felt she just heard unbelieveable laughing voice coming from his boss, that cold Mr Li? laughing with a woman? for 10 years she worked there, it was never happened before until now... just who is this girl? Perhaps his... future wife? She shook her head hardly believe it and tried to focus back to her job.


    Feeling being ignored, TianTian decided to stop and go,


    " I hope we don''t need to meet again, Mr Li...Good bye. " But that words scared the king, he right away hold her hands and stared at her. His eyes full of passion and desire on her.


    " You must do your promise.Now I know what can you do for me, Ms TianTian"


    "and what is that?" She regretted soon she asked him.


    " Be my girl, stay with me forever." These words that he never thought could say to any woman ,but he said it to this girl, TianTian.Yes, it was truly from his heart, as he wanted this girl so bad.


    "I won''t do that. Ask another thing except that" TianTian felt fear for the desire of this king of beast.She knew she run away, coz these all things are new and terrified for her , she never being so intimate with any men before, she was so virgin...But for this man, she could possibly just a toy to satisfy his desire which can dumped anytime... TianTian afraid if she fell too deep for him, then there won''t be a turning back....beside didn''t they just met twice? How could possibly this man serious to her? These thought made her boldly answered,


    "I won''t be your girl"


    Getting the second rejection made him angry, he could get anything he wanted until now but why is it so hard to get this girl...he was also not patience at all.


    "Why? I know you don''t have any boyfriend! In fact, I am your first kiss.I want you TianTian, why you don''t want to be mine?"


    "You cannot force someone to be yours as you like, i have a free heart and free will.How come i am being yours just because you decided like that!! It is ridiculous... I am leaving...lets pretend I never come here..." It''s enough, TianTian felt if she was stay longer, her brain would explode for making sense with this arrogant pervert beast king.In the beginning he was an abnormal pervert rich man.No need to keep a promise to such a beast, right?


    "Then you don''t care about your friend WenWen?" The king sudden changed his tone coldly.Now he decided no matter what he must got TianTian stay beside him forever.Unfortunately this king never learn how to love someone properly.In his world, he got used to threat people to get what he wants, no wonder he known as the cold-hearted king.At that moment he only knew that way to make TianTian his.A way that he would regretted so much in the future.


    "You wouldn''t dare..." A horror scenario run in her mind.


    "Do you think I won''t?" The king stared coldly at her, reminded her at the time she met him in that club.Yes , he would do it.Didn''t he has done it before? Now TianTian realized that the man in front of her right now was really cruel and cold-hearted.The only way to stop him was...


    "Then if I agree to be your girl ,you will not harm WenWen?" she asked it not because she didn''t know the answer, but she must to be sure...


    "That''s right." Would she accept? For the first time, the king felt a fear of losing.He never lose in any business deals, nor felt nervous to get the answer.


    "..."


    ''Why me? You can get any girl who much more pretty than me...'' TianTian actually wanted to ask it, but she couldn''t.She felt she knew why, isn''t because she offended him, '' i was trying so hard to fight back but it became amusing for him , like getting a new toy ,typical what rich man did. Maybe i should give what he want for now until he felt bored.Hoping it wont be too long...''


    "Very well, I agree to be your girl but in 1 condition."


    "You are not in position to bargain...!!"


    "Do you want me to be your girl or not?!"


    Both of them didn''t want to lose.TianTian knew she need to surrender but at least she need to have her dignity, to protect her virginity, to protect her heart.


    "Fine!! What is it?"


    "Give a test first."


    "What? a test? For what?"


    "Yes, to prove that you are serious about making me your girl..."


    ''Damn Girl ,you are testing my patience! How could she doubt for a word of Mr Li? She need proof, fine...i am playing your game for now...'' But the king didn''t know that he would regretted it soon.


    "Fine, what test? Do you want me to buy a house, a car or a building for you?''


    "I don''t need those things, just a simple test.You cannot sleep intimately with me in three months."''Well, three months supposed to be long enough right, no man bared to have girlfriend who won''t sleep with him, soon or later he would bored on me and then dumped me like him...'' TianTian suddenly recited bad memory about her former boyfriend, left her coz she was a boring girl who didn''t want to be kissed or bedded.All men are really beast.


    "Its absurd, you are my girl and you said i can''t have sex with my girl for three months. You are really a strange girl, you know?"As far he remembered, any women would love to climb up his bed, having sex with him, even better if they can having his child...which none ever success to do it.Behind this perverted beast mask, actually the king was also as virgin as TianTian.Not because he''s not able to perform it but he never had desire to any women like he did to TianTian.


    "If you don''t willing to do the test then I leave right now...maybe you can make WenWen unemployed but then i believe WenWen still can continue living well with my support...so your threat about WenWen is useless". It''s a weak arguement, TianTian knew it, her heart was beating so fast, so nervous.If only the king realized he could use his power to force her right now, but she prayed, hoping that somehow deep in this beast king had a heart to give her a little respect.


    What TianTian didn''t know, thought about losing her made the king could not


    think clearly.


    "Alright, in three months we won''t have sex, but you should be my obedience girl, you will stay where i stay and will go where i go....clear?!"


    "stay..with you...? but..."


    "Don''t push your luck, girl! Its final decision!!"


    " I won''t...but give me some time to collect my things..."


    "No need! Your things will be delivered from your apartment.I know you live alone there.But right now you are going home with me..."


    Not yet to give any response, the king had grabbed her hand and dragged her to his car.Then the car went smoothly to the luxury complex where many rich people stayed there.It known as ''A Gold Garden''.The house in there was valued around 10 billions, and each of them has their private swimming pool and sauna.


    The king''s house is also like that, what a luxury house ,but for TianTian, she felt being sleighed to what could be called a luxury jail.

 3 Ism Sorry, Little Vase

    in a present...


    ''Do you see any sign of waking up from her?'' ask the whitefox to the nurse.


    The same nurse who came before and injected TianTian with some liquid.


    "No, she still not wake up since that day."


    "Okay, you may continue your work..."


    The whitefox looks to the girl who is laying on the bed, she had been sleep like that for a long time, like a sleeping beauty... a poor sleeping beauty...


    In her dream, TianTian recalled the moment she came to the king''s house for the first time....


    That time, when TianTian was in the king''s car, she became too silent, but not with her mind.


    ''Are you crazy, TianTian? How can you just follow this beast?''


    ''But we have a deal right? he should keep his promise, not to touch me or...''


    ''Wouldn''t he? Didn''t he has force kissing you without permission? What makes you think he wouldn''t attack you this night...in his own home?''


    In a quick glare, she looked at the king. ''Why is he silent too? What is he thinking about? Could be..." At that moment, the king glared back to her, surprising TianTian.She turned her head immediately to the window, pretended seeing the road...


    The king smiled, right now he had a victorious feeling, well...at least he already got a half of way to achieve his goal.TianTian will stay with him, she had promised to be with him anytime.Of course deep in his heart, he cursed the ''test'' that TianTian wanted, but he could not swallowed his own words, he is a business man, keeping a promise is a vital to gain trust between him and all his clients.Very well, it just three months, he had been lived like a monk before he met TianTian.How hard it can be? Then the king checked on TianTian who kept her sight on the road, the king made promise to himself, ''On the first day of fourth month, I would eat this girl up, embracing her as much as I want...otherwise I am not LiWangHu, the king of Li Empire. Just wait, girl!''


    The car had trespassing the outer gate, but it takes a few minutes more until the car finally stopped in front of the house.What a big garden he has....


    "We arrive.Lets go..." Always commanding, TianTian took a deep breathe before she finally got out from the car, and silently amazed with the house.It''s so huge and so decorative in luxury...two statues of chinese lion guards watches over the front door, and chinese ornaments on the sides of house....


    The door was opened and TianTian noticed an old woman, dressed as a head of servant, followed by two young servants, welcoming the king politely, "Welcome home, Master Li".


    The king just nodded as his response, and not wasting time anymore to introduce TianTian as a new member of the house.


    "Aunt Ma,this is TianTian and she will stay here starting today...."


    TianTian could see a surprise look ,even though just in second on the old woman who called as Aunt Ma, but when she looked her again, the look was gone.


    "I will prepare the room for Ms TianTian right away..." TianTian didn''t see wrongly, Aunt Ma was surprised indeed but as a professional maid, she made her face flat and keep doing her job while she was evaluating in her thought, ''It is the first time Master takes a woman to this house and more than that, he allows her to stay here...who is this girl, is she a girlfriend? a future Madam of this house? But this girl looks so...ordinary...a commoner... she is not fit for Master Li'' For Aunt Ma , the king is already like a young prince she cared so much as she witnessed him grew. Even though she knew, she was not in the position to ask about the king''s decision, she made her mind to evaluate the worthiness of this girl furthermore.


    "Don''t bother, put her things later in my room..." the king took off his cloak and gave it to Aunt Ma...


    ''What...i must sleep in his room? Hell No...''


    " No...You had promised... ''the test!''....so you have to give me my own room..."


    The king felt irritated for being reminded about ''the test''.... , he stared on her as a protest but TianTian won''t gave up...


    She stared back, "three months!"


    "Fine!..., Aunt Ma ,go prepare a room for her..."


    ''Fiuuh, thanks God.At least this beast can keep his promise.


    "Yes, Master Li" Aunt Ma didn''t waste anytime.She right away instructed other young servants what to do and they went to other inner sides of house busily.After making sure a room was being prepared, she turned to the king, expecting another commands from the king,


    "A room is being prepared, do you need anything else, Master?" and then TianTian could saw the king gave another instruction about dinner and seems this Aunt Ma also wanted to report regular daily things to her master.TianTian didn''t interest to hear it, she more interested to explore the antique things around the house.


    Looking at all those antique gave TianTian more data about the beast, ''So he is...an antique collectors ... these antique are so old and original...I cannot imagine the price he has spent for them...'' TianTian grew in a very traditional family; she familiar with antique things as her grandfather whobe called as an antique expert by all his old friends.When she was a little, she often played in her Grandpa''s house, she learn a lot of things from her beloved Grandpa... TianTian slowly moved, observing one antique vase to another.... seeing those antiques always made her thought of her Grandpa, who had passed away when she graduated school...oh how she missed him so much... TianTian stared on a small chinese vase with a fairy with long chinese ancient dress drawn on it, she didn''t realise that she holding it as she was deep memorizing her Grandpa...


    "Do you like it?" A whisper blew on her ear, it was so close until TianTian could felt the breathe of the king.It shocked her and accidently loose the vase.


    "Prankkk!" Oh No..the vase...


    The brittle noise also surprised the servants around the house.Aunt Ma was still there, witnessed what happened; this girl just broken one of master''s antique collections.She knows how this Mr.Li loved his collection so much.She remembered in the past when there was a servant so clueless and accidently broke one of the vases, instead of just cut her salary and forgave her, Master Li broke her fingers and kicked that servant out from the house.She couldn''t imagine what possibly happen to this girl now,...what a poor girl...''


    The king didn''t expect that TianTian would dropped the vase.His precious little vase,...he remembered it priced at least around 50 millions,...it might be the cheapest one in the room but the art is priceless...what a waste... a little battle occured in his mind...


    ''Damn Girl, you just enter my house and now you already broke my vase... if only you are someone else...i would kick you out of here...'' He looked at TianTian... ''Hooh...look at this girl, look at her face....she is also in shock and scare...Hah, let me punish you hardly...''


    But before the king said any words, he froze, seeing tears started come out from her eyes. ''...is she so scare to be punished?''


    But instantly, TianTian gave a anger look to the king,


    "Look at what you''ve done!!!!"


    ''What??? How come she angry back to me?''


    TianTian kneeled down and cried...


    "What a poor vase....I''m so so sorry, little vase...it''s all his fault...he was not supposed to surprise me like that...but i''m also wrong, i didn''t hold you tightly just now, i''m sorry i could not protect you...hik hik..." She started to collect the big pieces of the broken vase...while she kept crying...


    ''I''m sorry Grandpa, I broke an antique vase, which looked similar like one of your favorite vase...'' TianTian really felt that she had disappointing her beloved Grandpa in Heaven...


    The king and Aunt Ma blinked their eyes, not believing what they saw... what a weird girl....


    ''She can be more sorry to that vase and then dare to blame the Master...this is the first time she watches such a thing, wonder how does the Master respond?'' Aunt Ma glared to her Master.


    "Ha...Ha...Ha.....Ha...Ha...Ha..."


    Sudden the king could not hold his laugh, he laughed a lot....not the kind of anger laugh but enjoyable laugh. Seeing the reaction , made Aunt Ma and other servants who peeked from other rooms felt their hearts jumped out.


    ''The master didn''t angry to the girl forhas breaking his antique collection ,instead he laughed? Is it the end of the world???''


    ''This girl is really interesting...it makes me more and more attracted to her... So she also loves antique things like me, its good.But...somehow I don''t like that she care that little vase so much...look at her. she even didn''t care that his finger had cut by the broken piece...''


    "Stop taking those pieces...let others clean it...come with me."


    Without asking first, the king just grabbed her hand, and pulled her away from those shatters and took her.


    As an understanding servant, without being asked, Aunt Ma instructed other servant to immediately collect the pieces of broken glass...


    While she looked at his Master and that girl goes to dinner room direction, she took a short sigh, "This girl is really not an ordinary girl...." but she felt still need to evaluate on her furthermore.


    "What...wait...i''m not finish yet..." as usual, the king didn''t bother to listen to her.He took her to what looked like as a living room, its quite luxury with some high tech electronics and a large painting hanged on the wall, another priceless antique painting, unfortunately TianTian couldn''t put her mind on it yet. In her mind, she busied thinking of what would happened next?


    ''Sit...'' TianTian couldn''t disobeyed it as the king pushed down her shoulders to make sure her laying on the sofa, and she was also could not move as his body was covering her way, so closely.


    "What ...you...!" she protested, trying to push out his body to stay away.


    "Silent!" a short yell yet efficient, caused it made TianTian stopped, but she kept thinking in her mind...


    ''This beast is really odd, he laughed so loud just now....but now ,he''s angry? what would he do next? What should I do now? Well, I should accepted the punishment for breaking the vase, maybe i can tried to fix the vase later or paid for it...I need to talk to him, i will not run from what i did wrong...''


    "Mr Li... I..." But the king silent her with the glare then he sit closely to her, he turned his eyes at TianTian''s hands.He held the wounded finger andthen slowly he licked the small cut part.TianTian once again didn''t expecting what was going on; She tried to pull her hand back, but he didn''t let it go. He grabbed her wrist...Furthermore , he started licked the hand in sensual way.


    "Stop...stop it, you...you are violating the promise.. " As a virgin, TianTian''s face easily turned red for getting such a treat.


    "I am not violating the promise coz this is a punishment...."


    "What...what punishment? STOP" but he didn''t stop, he continue kissing her right palm, then slowly smooch her right arm, its getting up and up to her right shoulder...and then he whispered to her right ear,


    "Your hand has breaking my precious little vase,...so I am giving your hand here a small punishment, girl..."


    ''What kind of punishment is it? He is so pervert...he just can''t wait to get any chance to do pervert things!! I should never agree to come here in the first place...''


    "Alright I get it...I did wrong, i''m sorry...I will pay for the vase... now get away from me...." TianTian stared back in anger to him...


    "I bought that little vase for 50 millions, and it was really hard to find the same vase...do you want to pay in cash?"


    TianTian'' eyes got widened, what a high price for a small vase... with her salary as a teacher ,it would taken tenth years to pay him back...


    "Well ,if you couldn''t afford it, then you should be a good girl, take the punishment nicely."As her response, the king noticed her ears turned so red.


    ''Could it be..? I wonder...'' and then he licked the ear,


    "Aahh...No..." At once, a strange desire came up from all her body.It seemed her ears are the sensitive parts as he guessed and it made the king getting more exciting to know about it...he softly bit the ear to hear her cute moan just now... ''


    "Aaah, No...stop...I can''t..." TianTian felt weird and so scared... her body was becoming weird right now...''What''s wrong with my body?...why I become so weak to resist his actions.This is danger...if it continues...'' She couldn''t help herself except started to cry...


    "Please...let me go..." she begged...


    In the same time, Aunt Ma appeared and became her savior.Ignoring what was going on, she gave a light cough to tell her presence,


    "Ehm.... dinner is ready, Master Li."


    The king stopped.He took a deep sighed, and then kissed her right cheek lightly.


    " Its about time Aunt Ma...coz I''m so hungry,....so hungry till i am willing to eaten up a person in front of me... Let''s eat..." the king smiled teasing TianTian, he raised from the sofa and also raised up TianTian.Then he walked to the dinner room, expecting TianTian to follow him but no, she didn''t.She just stood silently, considering should she go out from here right now...her heart was shouting a warning, before its too late, she should run away...from him...


    Like reading her thought, he warned her also,


    " I''ll keep our deal for this three months, but if you try to run away from me.I will use my power to bring you back here and do whatever I like !"There is no way he would let go this girl...


    "Besides, don''t you need to eat first before you can fight me back?"


    Like responding to the king''s words, TianTian''s belly gave a loud hunger sound...


    "Ggurrrr..."


    TianTian felt so embarrassed, ''Damn belly, why should be noisy right now...'' but TianTian knew why...it is, the time she suppose already have her supper.


    Then she decided to agree for what the king''s said; no matter what, she need to eat first.She walked steadily to the direction which has shown by Aunt Ma ,while the king laughed again, following her into the dinner room.

 4 Mr Whitefox , I need your help

    The dream is continuing...


    "Dinner is ready, Master Li"


    "Its about time Aunt Ma...coz I''m so hungry,....so hungry till i am willing to eat a person in front of me... Let''s eat..."


    So there they were, sitting together silently, faced each other, around a giant table.It was a weird view actually, a lion, the king of beast was solemnly waiting for food to be served with his prey, a little bunny, stared fiercely to him. At first, everyone in that room could felt cold and tense aura from them both.... but it slowly changed when the food came...


    TianTian widened her eyes when she looked at the food that served,


    "It is a homemade dinner?! More like a dinner from five stars restaurant... furthermore... all of the dishes are her favourite food". As a food lover, TianTian could not resist a temptation of delicious food, for her it is more tempted than money or jewelry.Not waiting anymore, she immediately started to put one to another dish in her mouth, ignoring the criticizing eyes of Aunt Ma and the other servants, ''Definitely, this girl never been taught a table manner.''


    ''How could the Master choose this kind of girl?''


    But it didn''t matter for her. In fact, she purposed to do it, maybe if she looked so ugly and rude in manner, this beast would lost interest on her.As the addition of her overact, she took the honey chicken wings by her bare hand and ripped it harshly until clean to the bones.But after eating the chicken, as her habit since her childhood, she sucked the flavor of those bones from each her fingers, it felt sooo yummy.


    But what TianTian didn''t know that the king enjoyed seeing TianTian''s glutton face.All these time, he was sick with all pretending lady-like manners from women around him.TianTian''s eating way looked honest and refresh to be watched.Beside, this was the first time he felt comfort to eat with someone...usually he could not put his awareness when he with someone, even with the whitefox , his trusted right hand.


    Speaking of devil, The whitefox had arrived to drop TianTian''s belongings; Within a tight black vest, his body looked so fit, like a model. He entered the dinner room, and felt odd seeing TianTian was enjoying her food, while the king just glared on her happily.


    ''So, the little bunny really has been captured, is she has been tamed also?'' he wondered.


    "You come..." The king noticed the presence of the whitefox, and he had put on his cold mask as usual when he talked with him.


    "Yes, Mr Li...everything is done... I also already made some deal contracts that you need to check..."


    "Ok, later i will...."


    "But i am afraid it must now, caused ''He'' wants to know about it very soon..."


    "..." The King stared on TianTian and thinking. Even though he still want to spent more time with TianTian, but he couldn''t ignored some important works, especially if it comes from ''Him''. He also could not asked her to stay with him at the office , because some works are very confidential cases.


    ''Very well, beside tonight she won''t go anywhere...''


    Meanwhile, TianTian who was almost finished her food, noticed that the beast got up from his seat and seemed talked seriously with the whitefox...


    ''O so..., this beast still need to work during dinner? it quite ruining the mood of dinner right...well, what should I care... but wait...a contract...A CONTRACT....THAT''S RIGHT. Why i didn''tthought before...I must have a legal contract with him so he would not dare to touch me again...but how can I make a contract paper ?...''


    TianTian glared to the whitefox andsmiled a little .... somehow with sudden, the whitefox felt a cold breeze blew to him.


    The King instructed some orders to Aunt Ma which could not be heard by TianTian, and after that he left with the whitefox to the stairs.TianTian kept her eyes on them as they entered to one room, which must be his office room.


    Not too long, noticing the food in her plate had clean out of food, Aunt Ma asked if TianTian want to take a rest in her room.


    ''Of course, after what happened today, I demanded a nice sleep time but before that i need to do something...'' but TianTian replied Aunt Ma politely as she seeing Aunt Ma as old as her beloved grandpa.


    "Please take me there and...thank you Aunt Ma, for preparing the room and the dinner. and the food was wonderfully delicious, i must meet the chef who cooked it later, coz i want to get the receipt, or even better learn how to cook those food from him..."


    Aunt Ma smiled a little after she heard those words, ''This girl is not bad; at least she knows how to show gratitude.''


    "This way, Ms TianTian",


    " ah..." even though she would like to say something but coz Aunt Ma had walked before her, TianTian followed her obediently.At the hallway, Aunt Ma directed her to the end of the hallway.At there, she noticed there were 2 rooms which has similar single doors.TianTian was guessing that her room would be the farther one , but she was wrong.Aunt Ma led her into the closer room, which just beside another room before the office room.When she entered the room, the smell ofthe room was telling her that this room either still new, or seldom to be used before.It must be a guest room.


    The decoration of the wall is giving a feeling of a luxury hotel room; exactly what she felt about staying there, it was like staying in a luxury hotel.It won''t for too long.As soon as possible she hoped.


    "I will arrange you to meet the chef tomorrow as your wish. What time will be fit for you, Ms TianTian?"


    ''Tomorrow? Do I really need to stay here for three months ahead?''


    "Well, after dinner will be fine...if that not too bother the chef..." I better have a business at night also in case...


    "It''s fine, Ms TianTian..."


    "Thanks....Ah, Aunt Ma..."


    "Anything else, Ms TianTian?"


    "Can you just call me ''TianEr''? I am not used to be served all the time like this actually, so I was feeling uncomfort also to be called Ms TianTian all the time."


    "Its ...rude"


    "Please, it will make me in ease at least ...Please Aunt Ma..."


    "As your wish,...Ms...ehm, Tian..Er..."


    TianTian smiled brightly to Aunt Ma, she was really thinking her as like her own grandma...indeed TianTian is easily fond to the elders.


    "Thanks, Aunt Ma..."


    The smile of TianTian seemed contagious coz Aunt Ma couldn''t resist not to smile back to her,


    "I know you have a nice smile, Aunt Ma! You should smile a lot than being cool all the time like him..."


    ''What a simple and lovely girl...Now I seem to know why the Master could bring this girl home...''


    "Well, I must go now... hope you get a nice rest,...TianEr".


    "You too, Aunt Ma" Aunt Ma had left the room.TianTian followed her until the door, and after Aunt Ma went down to the stairs, she closed the door and instantly took out a blank paper and a pen from her belongings, and then she started to write...


    Meanwhile in the office, after checking some documents which brought by the whitefox, from his work seat behind the desk.He looked at the whitefox,


    "So...what is His ''message'' this time?


    The whitefox took a pause, everytime he must delivered ''the message''; he should be very carefully choose the words to say...


    "He knew that you brought a little bunny to play a house; As long as you keep the promise to him, he wouldn''t bother your little bunny..."


    "..." The king closed his eyes ,his mind tried to digest the message he just got...


    " I see. Tell him not too worry; I will always remember to keep the promise.Now, if nothing else, you may go..."


    The white fox bowed his body as a polite response to his boss and then went out from the room, leaving the king, who just light on his favourite cigarette and started to have a smoke.Clearly he also having a deep thinking.


    The whitefox just want to walked down the stairs when a hand pulled him.It was the little bunny...


    "Mr Whitefox ,I need your help..." She whispered while dragged him to her room.Slowly she checked that the king was still not come out from the office yet, so she still have a time.


    ''Mr.Whitefox? Since when he got that nickname?'' The Whitefox remembered that he never had a chance to introduced himself officially to this little bunny. But still ''Mr Whitefox?'' What made her pick that nickname for him, he curious...


    ''Ms TianTian, my name is YuFang...not Mr.Whitefox.''


    TianTian surprised, and then she realized she always called him with that nickname in her mind all these time ,she felt shame suddenly...


    ''I''m sorry, i don''t know your name before but you looks like a handsome white fox that i ever watched in fairytales, so...''


    ''Well, at least she admitted my handsomeness... '' The narcissistic whitefox, eh.... YeFang smiled to ease her...


    "It''s fine, you free to call me Mr whitefox if you want...So what can i help you, Ms TianTian?" The whitefox''s smile was so attractive, so handsome...


    ''This whitefox is very opposite than that beast... i am sorry that i ever felt you were cunning as a fox before...maybe this whitefox actually is an angel...who can help me out from here...oh that''s right, back to business...not much time left...''


    TianTian immediately took the paper she just wrote to him.YuFang confusedly took it and then read the paper, in the middle he couldn''t not hold his laugh but still he managed not to take it out loud.


    ''So this bunny is not yet tamed by the lion hah...this is an interesting idea, how could she got such idea? I really want to see LiWangHu''s reaction to this...''


    "Well, what do you think? Can it be qlegal?" asked TianTian nervously.


    "Maybe with some changes i can advices, Ms TianTian....here...and here.."


    TianTian heard him obediently like a student who listen to her teacher...


    Back inside the office, LiWangHu, the king still deep in his thought,


    How could he forget that he was actually not ''free''?There was an unseen chain on his hands and a shadow watching over behind that chain.So, He heard already about TianTian...but...


    It''s not like he forgot ''the promise'' when he met TianTian and decided to make her as his... he thought these were two different matters, it wouldn''t harm ''the promise''...he just desired TianTian for a moment, want her so bad...want her to stay with him...


    ''I want to see her now...'' LiMingHu, the king took a step out of his office and walked to TianTian''s room.


    When TianTian dragged the whitefox, YuFang to her room, she didn''t realized that the door was not close properly.So when LiMingHu walked there, what a surprise he found TianTian was talked with some one, a man in her room!


    An anger feeling came out burned in his heart, but he tried to hear what were they talked about...


    "Thank you, Mr. YuFang.I could not make it without your help..."


    ''What? what help?!''


    "Are you sure about this Ms TianTian? Actually being Mr Li''s girl is nothing bad for you.instead of it, you will gain a lot of fortune by staying with him..."


    ''What actually this girl planned to do?''


    This girl and His trusted man, are planning something behind him, unbelievable...he could not take it anymore.


    "BrAkk" He kicked hard the door, he knew that YuFang was standing right behind the door, so YuFang''s back got bumped with the door so hard. Its very painful.


    "Are you okay?" TianTian surprised to see what happened, and looked back to LiMingHu angrily,


    "Why did you do that? Couldn''t you just have knocked first?!"


    "Ms TianTian, I''m fine..." Seeing anger face from the king, he immediately explained,


    "Mr Li...Ms TianTian just asked me some advice about how to make a contract..."


    Mr Li just stared him coldly,


    "Are you done?"


    "Hah, o...yes...I''m done here."


    "Then you must go to the office right now.Tomorrow morning i want all agreement contracts for two weeks ahead must be on my desk!"


    ''What, that means I need to do overwork tonight???'' Damn, this jealousy king should not be offended.In the future, I must be more careful.


    YuFang replied in poor spirit,


    ''Yes, Mr Li....Ms TianTian, I''m sorry, I could not help you anymore..."


    and then, the whitefox a.k.a YuFang had fled from the house, leaving TianTian alone with the beast in her room.


    A tense filled in the room.TianTian knew that the king just punished and sent away YuFang purposely ,but isn''t it because she only asked his help??? What a child, this king!


    LiMingHu slowly closed the door behind him, not letting her run away.He still felt angry for seeing his girl with other man...but he also curious what did this girl plan with YuFang''s help? What contract he means just now?


    He moved forward, directly to her, made TianTian instinctually took step back.


    "So...where is the contract?"


    "It''s..."


    "You need a help to make a contract, I''ll help you...Next time if you need help, you must come to me..." It seemed a nice offer but with the way he said ,it sounded like a threat on TianTian''s ears. She could see the anger in his eyes,


    "But as my girl, you dared to be with a man alone in a room, how should I punish you this time?"


    TianTian was cornered...again...this time, to the bed...She accidently pushed down herself to sit on the bed, as the king kept moved forward to her.Now his face is so close to her, he put his arms on the bed, to the both of her sides, he bowed his body, secured her, so TianTian could not move to any directions.The King now bending forward, more closely to her face.


    "Well?" But he was not waiting for a reply, once again her lips had been robbed.This time, with his mouth, he forced his tongue to invade TianTian''s mouth not in a soft way but it felt really a punishment for her...A rough and deep kiss, but full of passion;


    "Mmm...!!! Mmm...!!" TianTian''s tried to fight back, she pushed and pushed him hard... but she got an opposite react from him.The king pushed her down on the bed, with him to be on her...He stroke her hair passionately while still not wanting to let her lips free.


    After a while, the king felt satisfy with his punishment on her, he freed her mouth... both of them took a time to breath by staring on each other...


    The king looked at her anger glare mixed with her tears, the face was as red as a fresh rose, similar like a rose with thorns, ''Beautiful, but thorny...'' he thought.


    Seeing a chance,TianTian right away pushed him hardly until out of the bed.


    She wanted to slap him hardly but her hands had been held tightly by him.


    "...!!! Pervert, You had broken the promise by what you did just now!!!" Feeling powerless, She only could scolded him in words


    "I am not.I am punishing my girl.I hope you can watches yourself from now...! Coz the punishment will not be just like this...." The king released her hands...


    ''What a delusion rational!!!!'' She screamed in her mind...


    "I want to make a legal contract with you!!!"


    In anger, she looked for the contract.Thankfully the contract was beside her, reachable on the bed, she grabbed it and shown it on his face.


    LiMingHu felt annoyed, he stepped back and took the contract paper and he read it.''So YuFang was helping her to make this contract just now...''


    The main points of the contract were:


    *He is not allowed to give a kiss, having sex or doing any other pervert things without her permission during the ''test'' period even though as a punishment.Otherwise He must let her go and cut any connection ever with her, which is also he can''t threat her by anything to get her back.


    In other hand, she promises to act as his girl properly, will stay in his house and will always accompany him when ever he want as long it doesn''t disturb her work time.


    If she violated the contract without acceptable reasons, she is willing to be his servant for entire her life.*


    LiMingHu stared on the contract.


    ''This girl hasn''t give up yet...well it is too early for her...but I admired she could make this kind of contract in such a little time...Damn YeFang, he must helped her a lot to make this contract.'' Now the king felt that the punishment he gave was still not enough ,comparing to what he lose in this contract.Far away, on the road, in his own car,YuFang sneezed and felt cold suddenly.


    "I already sign it.Now I want you to sign it!" TianTian offered a pen to him. "Or... I''ll out from this house right now!!!..."


    ''If he didn''t sign it, then...i don''t care anymore....I must go out from this house, free from him!!!''


    TianTian sounded so angry and really mean it for her threat.The king won''t dare to lose her so quickly. He took a deep sigh.


    "Fine..." LiMingHu took the pen and then he moved to the small cabinet, close to the bedside, and wrote on it for a while.


    "Here, satisfy?"


    TianTian couldn''t not believe that this beast just sign it without any complaint .She started to cool down, but it just for a while until she checked the contract, she realized that LiMingHu had added 1 term below ,which is:


    *When the ''test'' period has finish, TianTian should agree to give all herself to LiMingHu at the first night of the fourth month.


    "What...? I don''t agree with this..You corrupt the contract" She angered to him.


    "It''s legal as we has signed it together..." LiMingHu came and whispered to her ear "Sleep peace for now, but I can''t wait for our night together later..." and he blew her ear softly, as he knew it would made her ears became red instantly.Then He left the room, closed the door behind him and smiled while he walked to his own bedroom.


    TianTian threw a pillow she could grabbed to the closed door as she could to release her anger...she just could not believed that the beast could easily rob her kiss for three times...


    "Pervert !!!!!!!!!!"

 5 She was fallen for the beas

    "Beep...beep...beep..." A steady sound from the high -tech machine becomes the only sound which filled the room.TianTian gains her consciousness, but not awake fully; She just feeling so tired.Once again she felt odd, is she in serious sick? but why no one stayed beside her, how about her family? Mom? Dad? Her brother? Where are they? or...did they know? or it is because the last time she fought and disobeyed them ...


    and where is he?...Has he finally dump her?


    Her eyes felt deeply sleepy, TianTian can''t stop them from being closed again...


    TianTian remembered...


    After living at the king''s house in the Gold Garden for a few days, she felt her life was never be the same like before.Even though LiMingHu allowed her to go to work like usual, but he made sure that her actions could be monitored all the time, by putting a bodyguard beside her.This bodyguard was called Ali, named based on his favourite boxer.TianTian recognized him as one of the bodyguards that she hit at the club last time with a metal plate.She remembered that she did protest to him since beginning,


    "I don''t need a bodyguard..."


    "You don''t, but I do, his primary job is to make sure you are not run away..."


    "I will not run away...We have a deal , written on a legal contract..."


    "Yes it is and as I remember in that contract, you agree to be my girl properly and my girl need to obey what I say!!" And just like that. The king was undebatable.


    At that day, A black roll joyce stopped at the gate of ''First National Elementary School'' and all the eyes around looking at TianTian who embarrassed out from the car ,accompanied by a black-suit man, like the main character from movie ''Men in black''. TianTian warned him not to enter the school ,surely it would be weird for a normal elementary teacher accompanied a bodyguard in the class. But Ali didn''t dare to neglect the command from his boss so he just stood still at the front of school, waiting for TianTian finished her work.He stood so firmly ,giving a scary vibe for anyone who walked entering the school.Only an old school gardener didn''t afraid to him and after the first bell rings, Uncle Chow, the gardener asked Ali to have a teatime with him...and it happened like that for a few days.


    ''What the hell...'' She felt like a prisoner now.Everyone in the teacher office wondered what had happened to her, as suddenly there was a fierce man in a suit like in *the movie ''a man in black'' appeared at school every day.Even her principal came personally to ask her..., what TianTian could answer just a lie that the bodyguard was her friend who is an actor and was practicing as a bodyguard with her...and then she run instantly to the class without any further more clear information...


    In her class, it also became a hot gossip between the students.How not? Suddenly there was a stranger man brought their favourite room teacher to the school from an expensive car.For the third grade students, it was too tasty not to being a hot news...


    One of her favourite students, Xiao Ai guessed that Miss TianTian was a missing princess who just been found back, what an imaginary girl! TianTian laughed. Oh how she wished it could be true...


    Others said that their teacher suddenly won a lottery and became a rich woman.It was more pleasure to hear the children imaginations than hearing by herself what adult''s thought about her...


    TianTian was at outside of the unclosed door while her teacher colleagues talked about her in the teacher office.They guessed that she must got a rich boyfriend ,or even becoming mistress of an old rich man. Then when she came in, the office sudden became too quiet, so quiet until a ringtone from TianTian''s handphone surprised everyone.


    She saw the called id, and relieved...it was Wenwen... She wanted to meet her after the schooltime at the regular cafe.Of course she agreed, beside she supposed still have time right? The office work time was not yet finish, so that beast shouldn''t bother her yet.


    Then, after finishing her teaching time, she rushed away to the cafe, noticing WenWen had sit at their regular place.


    Seeing TianTian came out from that rolls joyce, WenWen felt weird,...


    "So you are really working for LiMingHu as for exchange returning my job? Honestly, yesterday I was not believing what you said, but seeing you come out from that car just now...fiuhh, so its true..."


    "Ehm Hm..." TianTian purposely kept drinking her favourite guava juice she ordered.She was thinking how to explain the truth to WenWen.TianTian didn''t want to keep any secrets to her bestie, but she also didn''t want to make WenWen felt guilty....


    "Oh , TianTian...you are my true friend... I love you so much...and I promised I will pay this debt later... soooo...how is it?"


    " What do you mean?"


    "The job,....actually, TianTian...after I am thinking deeply about what had happened that night, we are so lucky to get involved with LiMingHu, you even work for him....you can meet him in person often times...right?"


    ''Wait...'' TianTian saw a familiar expression from WenWen and she didn''t like it


    "I thought you are afraid of him?"


    "Ah...yes , I still scared a little bit, but he is so handsome....and so rich... beside i can see that he is actually generous...he even giving you, his worker a ride from one of his car...I hear that he is still a single. At least in my job place, he is never been gossipped to have any relationship with any women.Do you know what his other calling name? ''The handsome monk''...!!! Hahaha, what a bad name right? It is not fit with him at all...


    Ah, TianTian...do you think he would remember me if we meet in any company party?You know...tonight there will be a launching party of new Li cosmetic product ,ooh I wish I can be there ,but unfortunately I am not chosen to be the member of the models for that product. Aaah...I want to fix our first meeting, I had ruined it at the last time....!!"


    ''OH....MY....GOD....WenWen is falling for that beast'' How come???


    One thing TianTian knows well about WenWen, that she is a very bad jealousy girl.Once in their college, there was a man who WenWen liked so much but that man chose other woman which was also their closest friend.But since that man and their friend finally in a relationship,WenWen cut any connection with that friend until now. TianTian didn''t want the same thing happen to her so she decided not to tell WenWen, at least until three months later...or maybe WenWen''s crush would not hold that long... beside its too early...


    "I don''t know, WenWen...I think you better stay away from that beast...you don''t know his real face...


    "And you know it how? What do you know about him? Are you close with him?TianTian, please tell me everything about LiMingHu, i feel maybe he is really the one...you know, my prince..."


    and again, about this prince....Since school, WenWen told TianTian about her dream many times, the dream was about a man who kissed a sleeping princess which was her but in that dream, she could not see the face of the prince.Since that WenWen believed that out there, there must be a prince waiting for her love.And of course that prince must handsome and rich.


    TianTian sighed,


    "He is not your prince, WenWen... definitely not! As far I know...


    he was so cold, cruel as the beast , and so...sO...SO...SELFISH...he likes to force anyone to do what he wants and never considering others...!!!" Without she realized, she was already talked in anger as she remembered how LiMingHu treated her...robbed her kiss...TianTian even hitting the table so hard with her glass, caused the juice spilled a little.


    WenWen so surprised and a little bit scare seeing TianTian like that..."TianTian, are...are you okay?"


    TianTian calmed herself, at that moment, her smartphone was ringing...She looked to the caller id, just a stranger numbers...wonder who is it?


    "Hello..."


    "Meet me in the SunMall now. I want to see you here in 10 minutes...!"


    "SunMall? Why?" The working hours are suppose not finish yet right?...what is this beast doing there?


    "Get here immediately or I''ll lose my patience. *click"


    ''Did he...just commands me and hangs up without any explanation??? How rude...!!!


    "Who''s that? You looks so upset TianTian?"


    "It''s..." Not yet finishing her word. Ali, the bodyguard had entered the cafe and approached them.


    "Miss TianTian.Mr Li asked me to take you right now. Please come." Ali tried to be polite as possible for he hoped that TianTian agree to come, coz if not, he had to drag her out from the cafe which would be humiliating for her.


    Of course TianTian knew she should cooperated for now.


    "I''m sorry WenWen.I have job to do, be given by your handsome monk...I''ll call you later okay..." TianTian raised from her seat.


    "I see...wait, TianTian..." WenWen quickly pulled her close to her, whispering to her so Ali could not heard what she would said.


    "I know you don''t like your boss, but please give him and me a chance, be my informant, tell me all everything about him ,pleaseee...I beg you?"


    ''Here we go,...'' A child-like miserable face of WenWen had successfully made TianTian couldn''t say no for her wishes everytime.


    "Pleaseeeee ... or at least send me his photos...."


    "Fine,...i''ll do what I can do"


    "Yeah, I love you TianTian..." WenWen hugged TianTian like a child who got the birthday gift already...

 6 but he is my brother

    Less than ten minutes, TianTian was already in front of a luxury boutique in SunMall.SunMall was the largest department store which belonged by Li Company.It known for its exclusive and expensive shops for high-class people ,in other word, a luxury mall for the rich people.


    ''Maybe he has some business in this mall and he ask me to come accompany him working?'' She guessed ''Well, it won''t be hard right, anyway I do need to follow the contact..." She sighed one more time before entering the boutique.


    "Welcome ,Ms TianTian.Please come with us" Surprisedly, two lady employees dragged her to the fitting room and in the second, had taken off her clothes. It was so fast until TianTian couldn''t stop to ask.


    By just covered with a shower jacket, TianTian was being pulled to a chair, and then in a minute, her face and her hair were being transformed beautifully.One last touch was helping her to put on the dress...a beautiful white purplish short strapless gown.


    And there she is, in front of a big mirror in fitting room, she was stunned for her own appearance.Of course she ever dressed up herself but never could turned her like this. She was now looked like a fairy from a modern fairy tales.


    "Beautiful..." A whispers came to her ear, a very familiar voice.


    TianTian looked aware to the reflection of the voice owner in the mirror.Somehow she felt shy and nervous, to be seen by him in this look.Besides, its too close ...she wanted to stay away from him...but...


    LiMingHu touched both of her shoulders,


    "Don''t move!I want to enjoy seeing my beautiful girl for a moment." LiMingHu examined the reflection of TianTian, from her hair till legs,


    ''She is really beautiful...and She is mine.''


    And then he took out a silver necklace, it has tears shape with diamonds.It was put on her neck, as TianTian still admiring the necklace , LiMingHu kissed softly her right back shoulder.


    "LiMingHu !!" He did it again...this time...


    "Don''t worry...I won''t do anything else" He smiled to her and talked softly "It is just a small reward...for being beautiful..."


    ''Deg..deg..degdegdeg.'' TianTian could felt her heart started to beat fast.For a moment she felt being trapped in the beast''s eyes, they were soft but has adeep desire...desire of belonging her.


    "Come..." LiMingHu smoothly hold her hands and walked her out.


    "Wait...where are we going to?" asked TianTian , while she also noticed that every employee who passed by them bowed politely to the king until they got in the car.Even though they didn''t comment anything about TianTian''s appearance, she felt shy but what Tiantian didn''t realize that after they were gone , many of those employees grabbed their smartphones and typed something on it.In the minutes, there was a new rumour in internet world that for the first time, LiMingHu, the President of Li Company has a girlfriend...the handsome monk maybe not a monk after all the time...


    As the car moving, TianTian still tried to repeat the same question,


    "Mr Li, would you kindly tell me where are we head to?"


    "We are going to the party.You come to accompany me as my companion"


    ''Finally...the explanation...the party? a company party? Is it the one that WenWen mentioned before? Thanks God that WenWen isn''t go there, or.... wait ,why my hands feel warm?'' Then TianTian realized that LiMingHu didn''t yet to take off her hand since they entered the car.


    "Mr Li,...please let go my hand"


    But LiMingHu just stared to his smartphone, pretended not hearing her.


    ''I missed her so much today.Actually I want to hug her, kiss her and more, but I can''t so at least I won''t let go this hand.''


    "LiMingHu !!" She scolded.


    The king stared back to her, smiled evilly


    "Ms TianTian , are you saying I am not allowed to hold my girl''s hand? What kind of girlfriend who doesn''t allow her boyfriend to hold her hand? Especially in the party later, I hope you can behave well as my girl."


    "..." TianTian knew the act of LiMingHu was indeed still in a proper line. But already so long her hand wasn''t being held by a man, it made her felt uneasy and shy.Oh. well, she was indeed promised to behave as his girl so she became silent and try to keep her mind busy than just listening her heartbeat kept beating fast.


    "Fine ,he wants me to behave as his girl, maybe its a good chance to ruin this image of his girl.By that, he will disappointing and then dump me...and I''ll be free...now...what should i do..."


    LiMingHu, in other side, also busy with his thought.


    ''Is it wise to do?'' Taking this girl beside him to the party, is same like introducing her to the world as his girl; well it will make this girl can''t run away from him but.... It also means that he shows TianTian openly to other men,and he hated that idea so much..."


    Actually he preferred to lock this girl in his room and never let her go at all.If it isn''t the demand from ''Him''... To proof that LiMingHu was not serious with this girl, he must dared to bring her to every formal party where ''He'' was involved...


    Then they arrived in SunHotel, a five-star hotel owned by Li Company of course, a luxury hotel for the high class.Before they went out of the car, LiMingHu looked at her and warned her again,


    "Remember you must stay with me all the time and don''t say or do anything else...and don''t smile to other men!!"


    "So are you saying that I just have to act like your doll in the party?" TianTian spoke her mind, meaned to criticise him but LiMingHu took it with a smile...


    "Exactly..." He said proudly, "as my beautiful doll..." The car door was opened and he pulled her out of the car.


    And right at that moment, suddenly flashes of cameras stroke TianTian''s eyes.There were abundant reporters stormed LiMingHu with questions...but all of them sounded asking the same thing,


    "Mr Li, who is the woman beside you?


    "Mr Li, is she your new girlfriend?"


    "Mr Li, which family does she come from?"


    "Mr Li..."


    As becoming a sudden celebrity, TianTian felt dizzy with a rush of light flashes from their camera.Without giving any words, the king kept holding TianTian''s hand, walk straight forwardly to the ballroom where having less reporters...


    Noticing the attendance of LiMingHu, made all eyes searched him and then they looked to TianTian ,examined her.


    Many whispers mostly came from the women guests.TianTian could felt admiration mixed with jealousy stares sharply aimed her.


    "Who is that girl, she able to come withthis cold king...?"


    "She was not that beauty, only the necklace is gorgeous...I still more beautiful than her but why? She must be come from strong influence rich family!"


    "unbelievable..."


    "unacceptable..."


    Since they entered the place, the king finally released her hand, but he put her hand around his arm, demanding her not to let go his arm as they walked to greet from one to another guests. ''This beast really sticking like a glue''


    And for the first time TianTian realized that LiMingHu was really a public figure.


    She could see each people who greeted LiMingHu, were trying to lick his boots with their sweet talks. And the beast had already masked himself as the king of business, he was also didn''t give any chance for anyone to find out anything about her at all...as he always diverted any question about TianTian, or if anyone tried to ask TianTian directly, before she answered it, LiMingHu took a step and answered it for her so TianTian only could smiled as his order.


    Not so far from them, YuFang, the Whitefox who looked managing the party busily, widened his eyes when he noticed TianTian.''The little bunny can be this attractive ,no wonder the lion couldn''t resist to catch her alive'',


    For a minute, he was raptured by TianTian''s appearance but then he managed to focus back to his job.YuFang walked forward to them and greeted TianTian politely with his gentle smile.TianTian was happy to see YuFang, she wanted to smile back to him but LiMingHu reminded her about his warning by purposely hold her wrist and dragged her closely to him,as he also want to warn YuFang, ''This is my girl, stay away!''


    YuFang pretended not to notice it, and reminded LiMingHu that it was the time for him to give the speech.


    As LiMingHu''s name was called to give a speech; LiMingHu finally must let her alone.


    "Stay where i can see you.Don''t go anywhere! I''ll be not long..."


    LiMingHu then left her alone as he also dragged YuFang with him.


    ''Fiuuh, so tired" TianTian watched LiMingHu stepped up to the stage and started his speech.Some reporters below stage seemed not patience to gave him questions.


    ''I hope he stuck there...'' Along the time, TianTian kept thinking how could she fade away his attention to her if she really acted like a doll here...


    As a waiter walked toward her to offer the wine, she got an idea...


    She took the wine and gulp down it at once...


    ''Maybe if she looked drunk enough, it would humiliated that beast...drinking three or four glasses should be enough...''


    So even though she was not fond with alcohol drink but she continued drinking the second wine...the third...and then...


    before she took the fourth glass of wine from another waiter, a familiar old voice called her name in gentle,


    "Tian Er ?" The voice sounded surprised.


    TianTian turned around to see the voice source, and she was also happily surpised,


    "Uncle Sam...?" She looked to the old man in fifth who sit on the wheelchair accompanied by a beautiful lady.


    "It is a surprise to see you here, TianEr..."


    "Me too, Uncle Sam ,its been a long time and....your legs ,what happened, Uncle?" As the alcohol effect started to kick in, TianTian kneeled closely to the wheelchair of Uncle Sam, ignoring how odd it looked to others.


    Uncle Sam seemed happy to see TianTian''s reaction, he patted her hand gently.


    "Things happened, Tian Er....I lost my walking ability since 10 years ago...because of a car accident"


    "Oooh, I am so sorry to hear it Uncle..."


    She remembered when she was in elementary age, as one of the closest friend of her Grandpa; Uncle Sam often come visited Grandpa only to play chess with him.Sometimes he even brought his granddaughter with him, a shy little girl that TianTian loved played with.But at that time, Uncle Sam still could walk.It was really a long time.Since TianTian entered junior high school, she never saw Uncle Sam came to visit her Grandpa.''Now I know why...''


    Now as she had drank three glasses of wine, the alcohol effect really influenced her actions.She started cry, unable to control her tears...coz seeing Uncle Sam, reminding her to her beloved Grandpa,


    "I...hik hik...really sorry Uncle...hik hik"


    "Now Now....don''t cry like that. It will ruin your pretty face...Ms Chen.." The lady beside him seemed understand what to do ,she gave TianTian a nice handkerchief to wipe her tears.


    "Thanks...." *sssnnoorttt..."hik hik..."


    "Well, what is it that really make you sad, my dear? I know it must not only because my unfortunate legs..."


    "I am sorry ,Uncle...I...remember my Grandpa...hik hik....I am...reallly misss himmm"


    "Yeah...I miss him too..." Uncle Sam smiled sadly, but he appreciated TianTian for so doted on her grandpa, ''I wish my granddaughter can be like her too..''


    Then a man approached them in hurry, he bowed down to Uncle Sam, for coming late from the restroom.


    ''Why the back of this man lookssss familiar to me?'' thought TianTian, and when the man turned back.They looked at each other and stunned a second.TianTian turned around and wishes to disappear at once from there but it was impossible, he saw her already...


    "TianTian !!! What are you doing here???"


    "Hiiii....brother Kang..."


    ''Oh sh*t , my brother here....whhyyyy ooh He works for Uncle Sam???.. Oh Nooo...i''m doomeddd.Brother Kang eill be sssoo angryy if he know that shee made a deall with thisss beasssttt? if they met...Waittttt...he seem not knowing it yet...'' In her drunk, TianTian tried to keep her mind stay clear.


    TianTian excused herself from Uncle Sam, but asked permission politely to speak with her brother for a while...


    Then she dragged him to the unseen corner. TianTian absolutely forgot about the beast''s warning...


    "Brother Kang, i cannn explainnnn..."


    TianKang, the first brother of TianTian was a strict oldest brother who sometimes acts like their father to discipline them everytime they did wrongs.The problem is he''s also the most stubborn one if talking about morales. He smelled her mouth,


    "You drunk??? Since when you love to drink, did you forget Dad''s teaching about alcohol hah?!!And this gown, dressing like this! Tell me the truth, with who you come to this place? outsiders supposed can''t come without special invitation.Are...you come with a man?"


    ''Sh***tWhatttt a hunchhh...Brootheer you are gooddd.....''


    "I comeeee...with a frienddd...?"


    "Who?..WenWen? ..Don''t lie, I know she couldn''t attend this party.What''s really going on here?"


    "I...I..."


    "If you couldn''t answer then you go home with me right now!"


    TianKang looked really upset, besides that he realised how attractive her sister right now, it''s danger to leave her here, especially drunk like this.Any beasts among the rich man in this party could easily eat her up.He pulled TianTian''s hands and planned to ask permission to Mr Sam for taking his sister home.


    " I...I..can''t....wait..." TianTian sudden remembered the cold anger look of LiMingHu.


    At that moment,


    "Bukk..." Unprepared, a hit laid down on TianKang''s face very hard...making him felt down on the floor.


    "No one allowed to hold my girl''s hand except me"


    "Noooo...!!" TianTian so shocked, she wanted to check TianKang''s condition, but LiMingHu immediately hold and dragged her closely,


    "And you.... YOU HAVE DISOBEY ME!!"


    "Let me gooooo, noooo...I want to see him..." Following her instinct, she bit LiMingHu''s hand hardly.


    "AAKH" His hand was bleeding, but what did hurt him more was seeing TianTian caring another man in front of him.


    "Are you okayyy?" TianTian helped TianKang to stand up.


    Angried with TianTian''s act, the king finally lifted her body up, shouldered her like a thing and out of the room, witnessed by the reporters and other guests who thenmade it as the top hot gossip for a week.Some reporter successfully captured the moment ,but YuFang, who followed him just now did his job without being instructed, he made sure that no pictures or any bad reports came out from that room.


    ''Really a troublesome jealousy lion...'' he just could complaint in his mind.


    Meanwhile TianKang just stood freezely.


    "Was... LiMingHu just now shoulder my sister out from this room?" he asked to himself, unbelieving what just happened.


    Uncle Sam who witnessed everything just now just sighed...looked sadly to the door where TianTian and LiMingHu got out from.


    "What a poor TianEr..."


    While dragging TianTian, LiMingHu instructed to open a room for him.When they entered a room, a vip room.which usually be used several times by LiMingHu to take a rest;the king threw TianTian harshly on the bed.


    Before TianTian protested, LiMingHu had climbed up on her and stared angrily to her.They stared to each other so closely, it made TianTian''s heart beat so fast again...


    Then the king bit her neck harshly but also sensually.


    "Nooo....you can''t touch me!GO AWAY!" TianTian only could screamed as she felt dizzy to fight back.


    And the king let his anger controlled him, he didn''t stop,..no he won''t stop...


    "ITS YOUR FAULT TO MAKE ME ANGRY!"


    "What do you mean...WHAT DID I DO WRONGGGG?"


    "YOU SMILED AND TALKED WITH ANOTHER MAN!"


    ''But he is Uncle Sam, an old mannn?''


    "YOU LET OTHER MAN TO HOLD YOUR HANDS!"


    ''But he is brother Kang, my own brotherrrr?....this beast is irrationally jealousssss to themmm....!!!''


    "AND YOU BIT MY HAND, SO I BITE YOU BACK NOW!"


    He continued bit her neck, her collarbones...he started put his hands inside her under gown...


    "STOP...STOPP.....I''M SORRY...I''M SORRY OKAY....STOP...stop, please...hik hik" TianTian cried, she so scared.... she couldn''t resisted now coz the alcohol weakened her, but even though she wasn''t drunk, she doubted that she could fight back this beast...


    Seeing the tears come again from TianTian''s eyes.LiMingHu sudden taken off his hands and got out from the bed, silently he entered the bedroom andshowered him in full cloth with cold water.


    "Sh**t!" He cursed himself,


    ''This girl always gets him out of control... An anger to see her with other men, an uncontrollable desire to touch her....this girl has make him mad''


    At the bed, TianTian was so scared, she kept crying...she want to run from the room, but the alcohol mixed with crying made her so sleepy.


    A couple minutes later, LiMingHu finished the shower and got out from the bedroom with just a towel covered his underbody.He found out TianTian had in a deep sleep.He laid beside TianTian, noticing TianTian was talking in her sleep,


    "I'' ..m so...ry..."


    LiMingHu gently touch her face, wiped the tears and then kissed her eyes softly.


    "I forgive you, little girl...lets just sleep..."


    Then he slowly closed his eyes while his hand patted TianTian''s shoulders several times before finally stop.

 7 Donst call me in the morning

    "Auch, my head..."


    For the first time in her life, TianTian woke up with unpleasing headache coz by alcohol.She ever drank wine before, but never that much.


    "And where..am...I?"


    She stared on the bed for a moment, tried to gain last night memory, the party...the wine.. the hotel room and the rough kiss... and then...


    ''Aakh...I am....soooooo stupid!!!'' She screamed in her mind.Being drunk not only successfully only humiliated herself but she gave him an opportunity to do pervert things on her...again...


    ''TianTian, you never learn, aren''t you?''


    Not yet finished her words in her mind.She felt something moving on her,


    ''A hand?!''


    TianTian slowly looked at her right side, and what she saw was LiMingHu, sleeping barely on her right side,


    ''Did we...? No way, I remembered clearly what had happened yesterday night...He stopped...but after that...?''


    Touching her neck, she recalled the feeling she had last night. scared...but deep in her heart, she didn''t dislike it, she felt it, her heart wanted the passion....but her mind rejected it, she just couldn''t accept being forced when she was weak.


    ''Tian Tian, what is in your mind? Get it straight...'' then she realized something more important, ''What time is this...?'' She looked around and found a wall clock showed 06.50 a.m; the class usually starts at 7.00 a.m and she always is thirty minutes before.


    "Aaah, I''m late..." She rushed out from the bed, but her right hand suddenly held by the king''s hand tightly.


    "Where are you going?" asked him, the king, stared her deeply.


    "Let go, I''m really late to work..."


    "If you are late, then don''t go...stay..."


    ''This beast must be joking, right? How could I stay? Neglecting my job...? How irresponsible she will be...''


    "Easy for you to say like that, I was not as free as you, Mr. President Li... and I love my job so I don''t want to lose it...Now let me go...."


    "..."


    "Fine...go, but don''t bother me later with your call, I don''t like to be called if I still asleep..." LiMingHu took off her hand, then he back to sleep.


    ''A very high self-man huh? Weirdo...why do I need to call him later..???....oh right... school....!!!''


    TianTian immediately prepared herself to go and when she walked out from the hotel, Ali and the car had waited for her.


    Because it was still too early, there weren''t many people in front of the hotel.But without TianTian knew, someone had taken her photo out from the hotel secretly.


    TianTian successfully got in the regular bus she takes to the school, it was full with students and some office workers, like usual, they were ignorant to each other, and focus to their own smartphones. But somehow TianTian felt something different today, she felt being observed secretly by other passengers.Some teenagers whispered to each other while staring curiously to her.


    ''Is there something on my face? I was so rush just now, perhaps my hair was so messy?'' TianTian quickly checked her hair with her hands.


    It takes just a few minutes to arrive at the bus stop nearby school, even faster in the morning so TianTian didn''t have time to figure out the odd furthermore.She walked in a quick path but then she slowed it down because she noticed there was a crowd in front of the school... a swarm of reporters gathered at the school gate, wondering what had happened at school?


    She took a step closer, and one of the reporters noticed her...and then...


    "There she is!!! Ms. TianTian..."


    TianTian just realized what reason they came, they were looking for her... It is because of last night????


    ''Oh..crap, too late to hide...I must run away'' TianTian turned around and run from those info warriors as possible as she can...


    While she kept running, a memory occurred in her mind,


    ''Don''t bother me with your call...''


    ''So this is what he meant?! He knew this would happen but he didn''t say anything...what a jerk!!!!''


    "Bukk!" The small XiaoAi fell down, bumped by TianTian accidently.


    "I am sorry...sorry XiaoAi... are you okay...?" TianTian didn''t have much time to check her, so she just helped XiaoAi stood up quickly.


    "Miss TianTian, why are you running?"


    "There are bad guys come after me, XiaoAi...I must hide from them...so..."


    "Aha...AiAi has an idea.. come, Ms. TianTian..."


    A few minutes later, some reporters came to where TianTian was before.


    They looked to XiaoAi, who just stood behind the wooden wall of an old house.One of them asked her,


    "Hey Little girl, do you see any woman running to this way?"


    XiaoAi just smiled and shook her head softly.... she did that coz she didn''t want to tell a lie...


    Then the other reporters talked,


    "What the h*ll, we lost her...whatever, let''s go...let us just wait at school, perhaps she managed to come back there...if not, we must wait for her every day...!!"


    "Yeah, let''s do it, coz I really die curious what kind of woman could subdue that cold king of Li Company?"


    "I heard that she was not an ordinary woman, maybe she was from an old rich family who didn''t show off their status..."


    "Wow, she sounds like a hidden princess from nowhere..."


    "Hey, that''s a good title, ''A secret princess vs a cold king''...hahaha, let''s go..."


    When they had gone, XiaoAi moved aside, there was a big hole on the wall, as a secret passage to the old house behind her, and TianTian came out from there.


    "Fiuhh, thank you XiaoAi, you really helped me just now...and you even tried not to lie, good job" TianTian smiled and patted her head gently.


    ''Now, I really don''t think I can go to work...'' TianTian sighed,


    ''The worse maybe I can be lost my job...''


    "Ms. TianTian...?" XiaoAi looked at her curiously


    "Yes, dear?"


    "Are you really a princess like those men said?"


    Hearing what XiaoAi said, TianTian just could laugh weirdly.


    In another place, a ringtone of smartphone rang and the owner just out from the bathroom, and took the phone confidently.


    "I told you, I don''t like to be bothered too early..."


    "But you told me to call you this morning?, ...to tell you the condition..." said Yefang, who was called.


    "..." LiMingHu looked again the caller id, ...


    ''Sh*t, it''s not her''


    "Ok... continue..."


    While he tried to stay focus listening to the reports from Yefang, his mind was busy questioning...


    ''She doesn''t call yet, is she still on way? No, it couldn''t be.Or she just being stubborn to ask him a help?That means he doesn''t do hard enough to make her surrender to him? Well, I need a new plan....''


    "Yefang, give me the address of TianTian''s parents house."


    ''Breaking News: The cold king of Li Company, LiMingHu finally set his eyes to a mysterious woman from old dynasty...could it be love?''


    TianTian swallowed her own saliva when she read the headline of news she saw at screen board on her way.


    In the news, she can see the photo of her walked out from the hotel this morning...the face was clearly seen.Everybody could recognize her right away...


    ''How come it so fast be in the news....?


    Now what should I do...


    I can''t go to work, but i don''t feel want to go back to that beast''s house...not after what that jerk had done last night... forget about the contract, if he can''t obey it, why I must to follow it also...the most important is now that news about her has already spreading widely like this... how if my mom knows...dad?


    Did Brother Kang had told them..?


    Right, I must go home and explain to them before they got the wrong idea...


    and WenWen? She must heard it already right now...oh, well...settle it one by one... deal with WenWen later, beside she must be so angry, and refused to hear anything right now...''


    TianTian then stopped a taxi and entered it.

 8 I can explain, Mom

    In her childhood, TianTian remembered how she grew up in the house.Since she was a child, her Mom, Ms.Chen taught her discipline in manner and skill of martial art in hard training meanwhile her Dad, Mr.Tian taught her some medical traditional techniques.


    But it was mostly her grandpa taught her knowledge of life philosophy.


    As the only daughter and sister of Tian family, she could felt how she has been protected, too over actually.In the neighborhood,everyone know that any man who dared close to her, have to get a test from the three guardians of Tian. and no one could pass the test.


    As TianTian grew up, she could not wait to get her own place and got out of the house.Now, because everyone grew up and started busy by themselves, TianTian felt a little bit relieved.The eldest brother, TianWang, was the one that will inherit the legacy of the house, which also a martial art school. He was busy working with her Mom while he also studied medical traditional techniques from her Dad.Her second brother was Tian Kang, whom TianTian just figured out later that he worked for Uncle Sam, had moved out from the house and lived alone in an apartment.


    Meanwhile her little brother, Tian Lang, still in college, busy with his youth time.


    TianTian really enjoyed her freedom but now she was standing in front of the house.It had been a while, she didn''t come home, maybe around 2 years...Usually, she went home only during Chinese new year event but she didn''t make it last year.


    ''What should I explain to them, the reason I come? Ugh, I really hope they are not hearing about me yet''. TianTian knew how seldom her family to pay attention to the news of show biz.


    As soon as TianTian opened the heavy wooden door of the house, she heard a loud voice from inside, together with a loud beating table sound,


    ''Brakkkk.....''


    "Gettttt outtttt..."


    ''It''s Mom''s voice, what happens...?'' TianTian rushed to the source.It sounded from the guest house, the disciples gathered and tried to eavesdrop at the front of the room.They immediately disbanded when they saw TianTian.


    "I will go...but TianTian must go with me...so where is she?"


    ''Degg...''


    ''It''s that beast!!! How come he is here?!''


    TianTian entered the room. Her Mom, Mrs. Tian was standing in front of the table, she just hit the table.And LiMingHu was sitting arrogantly in front of her in his luxury white shirt.


    Mr.Tian stared sharply to Him behind his glasses with terrifying aura.The eldest son, TianWang looked backing his Mom, ready to attack.TianTian''s presence gave a silent for a moment.


    Mrs. Tian walked toward her,


    "It''s good you''re here now, TianTian.Tell us what''s actually your relationship with this impolite man?"


    "I...He..."


    ''Oh God, what can I say? Mom, I make a deal with this guy, to be his girl?? Mom and Dad will kill me right away''


    "She is my woman, what else to explain..."


    "Aaaakhh,...I can explain this...." TianTian sudden raised her tone loud, tried to cover LiMingHu''s voice.


    ''Really, I need to cast this beast away from here immediately''


    "Then explain to us...What exactly happened between YOU and ''HIM''?" TianTian could hear her Dad also raised his tone upset. It reminded her the same tone when she was little and did wrong and punishment after that...it made her froze. Her Dad wasn''t easy to angry, and that what makes TianTian more scared of him.


    Brother Wang was also upset but it''s already his habit to protect her beloved sister instantly from their parent''s scold.So he also asked TianTian but in a kinder tone.


    "TianTian, in the morning this arrogant man suddenly came in without permission and asked us to hand you over.He accused us of hiding you from him. Did what he said true? That you are his woman and you run away from him?"


    ''What???''


    "I don''t have time for this, TianTian, let''s go..." ignoring what happened, LiMingHu raised from the seat and coming forward TianTian, but as their instinct, Mrs. Tian and Mr. Tian blocked his way and put their defense pose. While TianWang pulled TianTian''s shoulder backward.


    "TianTian, come here!" he commanded again.


    "I am... *Brother Wang, its okay *, Mr. Li....please, I am not trying to run away.Give me time to explain this matter to my family.I promise I''ll return to you soon."


    "No need to return. TianTian, you stay here! No matter what was your relationship with him but it ends here, RIGHT NOW!!!" it was a bold declaration from Mrs. Tian.


    "No, Mom....please.."


    "You, young lady...shut your mouth! I will deal with you later..."


    "I give you last chance to come here, TianTian!!"


    "If you dare, I''ll cut your legs!!!" Of course, Mrs. Tian didn''t serious with her words but TianTian froze after hearing it.


    ''Aahh, what should I do??...''


    Seeing that TianTian hesitated to come over,LiMingHu got terribly upset.He felt that TianTian chose her parents over him and he was not okay with it but...


    ''Is she really afraid to her Mom or she just trying to run away from me? Well, she can try it but I won''t let her go from me...''


    LiMingHu didn''t give any warning, as he tried to grab TianTian away from her keeper.But Mrs TianTian didn''t give him any chance, she didn''t hold her power, trying to hit LiMingHu''s hands with her knife stick.LiMingHu quickly avoided it.But then TianWang also attacked LiMingHu with his swords.In a next minute, TianTian and Mr Tian suddenly became the audience of a martial art competition between LiMingHu, the king of beast who looked like a furious lion vs the duo of Tian who moves like the furious rabbits. At first, LiMingHu seemed superior in the fighting but as strong he could be, still couldn''t compete with 2 expert martial art teachers.


    After taking 2 slashes of their weapon at his hand and back, LiMingHu didn''t showany sign of surrender ,he even looked more fierce than before. He also managed to steal TianWang''s sword and just leave a light cut on Mrs Tian''s right upper arm cloth.


    If this is a real competition ,then the result was high tie between them, but no one gave up from any sides.


    TianTian moved forward between them and shouted to avoid the fighting kept continuing.


    "Stopppp, Mom ,brotherWang, please stop it.Mr Li, stop fighting."


    Before they could respond to TianTian.A phone call from LiMingHu''s smartphone interrupted them.After seeing the call id, he answered it,


    "Hmm...ok, i know it.. I''ll be there!"


    "Sh*t, it seemed I must go right now " He looked to TianTian, then to her family and felt be fooled and anger.


    "Very well...TianTian, I had made myself came to pick you up, it supposed be a privilege for you...but since you and your people here didn''t appreciate it.I decided I won''t pick you up again in the future...unless you beg me, do you understand?"


    He came closer to TianTian, and whispered to her, "Remember, you have. a promise to kept so please beg to me soon"


    ''Is it true, did he just let me go? Just like that? Obviously i won''t beg to go back to him....ever... but actually i had promised...'' TianTian looked to his wound, some blood leaked out ,caused his left arm shirt became red.Somehow she felt a little pity on him.


    "No need to talk furthermore.... LEAVE THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW, WE WILL NOTSHOW ANY MERCY NEXT TIME!!!" Mrs Tian grabbed TianTian away from LiMingHu and gave a gesture to force him walked out from the room.


    LiMinghu couldn''t hid his annoying face and started to walk out to the room,


    "Before you go, can you answer my question..."


    LiMingHu stopped, he wondered what question Mr. Tian asked about...he looked at him and Mr.Tian looked back to him. They stared sharply and giving a battle vibrate.


    "There is thousand more delicious prey outside...Why must the king of the jungle insist to get a small one ?"


    LiMingHu sudden smiled, he liked the way Mr. Tian interpreted the situation,


    and of course he understood very well the meaning behind the question but the others just confused to hear it.


    "Because the small one is special for the king, Mr. Tian and as the king, he will and always get what he wants. Maybe not in present but.... eventually."


    Then LiMingHu left the room.


    TianTian saw the left of the beast and felt relieved.


    ''Well, at least he has gone...for now...''


    "KNEEL!!!" spontaneously TianTian acted as she heard the command came out from her Mom.


    "Mom, I''m sorry...but let me explain..."


    "Then go ahead. We are listening... how can you involved with that terrible man? Entire my life, I never met an arrogant and impolite man like him!" Mrs. Tian sat on the chair and used her hand massaging her forehead.


    "Mom''s right, you''re supposed avoiding a man like him, couldn''t have any good relationship with that kind of man." TianWang shook his head.


    TianTian surely knew that she had to tell the truth, so she started from how she met LiMingHu and how she helped WenWen till ended with this weird relationship, but what she told just a big line of the story, not including that she already lived together with the beast.After hearing the story, Mrs. Tian whammed the table beside her,


    "Ridiculous!!! and you too, so clumsy...even though you want to help your friend, how could you agreed with such thing!!"


    "I thought... if he got bored, he would release me soon or later...beside it just a game for that man, Mom...nothing serious...you see what just happened, he finally let me go right?"


    Brother Wang once again shook his head,


    "...I''m afraid it''s not that simple. You are playing with fire, TianTian...That man...he looks not give you up yet, i''m afraid he would do anything to get you..."


    "TianTian, be honest and tell us did you already give.... to him?"


    Everyone stared curiously odd to TianTian after listening to Mom''s question.No need to mention the word, they already know what Mrs Tian means about.Suddenly TianTian''s face became red as an apple,


    "Oh God, No....NO, Mom, Dad I didn''t AT ALL.I still have my dignity as your daughter..."


    "Really?"


    "REALLY!"


    Mrs.Tian sighed deeply,


    "Well. It''s good... then we''re really no need to have any connection with him furthermore.... ah it''s too much for today, look at the time! Because of that impolite man, I even late to prepare our dinner..I''ll starting it now..." Mrs Tian went out, leaving her husband to give a moment to deal with TianTian alone.


    "I also need to go back to my class.catch you later, little sister"


    TianWang patted TianTian''s head like they were little, then he also went ahead out of the room.And after he was outside, he immediately took his smartphone and sent a quick message, which was written: ''CODE RED: HOME ASAP''.


    Meanwhile in the room,


    "TianTian...you may stand up now."


    "Thank you Dad...auch ,my legs"


    "It''s been a while...you didn''t come home last year"


    "Yeah" Last year actually she hesitated to come home, and since that she kept herself busy...so hearing her Dad mentioned it, she felt guilty right away.


    "And now you came home with unexpected guest and stormed this house... what a mischievous daughter you are..."


    Now she felt double guilty.


    "I know I am really sorry to bring this trouble to our house..I promise I will settle it right away..."


    But Mr Tian just smiled gently to TianTian...when TianTian saw it, she felt being tricked.


    "Dad! You''re teasing me!"


    "Alright, we can talk about it later. Now you just arrived.Why don''t you take a rest in your room and then join the dinner.I believe your Mom is preparing your favorite dish right now...ah...I almost forget to say...welcome home, TianTian"


    "Dad..." TianTian couldn''t holding her tear, oh how she loves her family...''I''m home''.


    She felt silly to avoid her family this entire year just because she didn''t want to hear any nagging from her parents about when she should getting married...


    Everything so peace when she was back home ... but unfortunately TianTian remembered it ended in a day.As she woke up the next day, a big surprise had waited for her.

 9 A storm in my Life

    (*present)


    A weak body laid on the bed, entire her body seemed in a deep sleep but her mind actually doesn''t sleep, it''s wandering in a dream about her past...''I miss my family...I really want to see them again... why don''t they come to visit me? Is it because of that time? I had left them...that''s right! But it''s because of that beast... all because of him..."


    (*past)


    In the early first morning since TianTian back to her home, a noise from outside house woke her up.Her room was in the second story and had a window faced to the outside of the front house, so curious about the noise; she walked to the window to open it but at once it opened, flashes of cameras irradiated her eyes. Clamours came out from the reporters and all were about her.


    ''There she is....!!''


    "Ms. Tian, is it true you are the king''s mistress?"


    "Ms. Tian, can you tell us when was your regular meeting with the king? Was it in Li hotel? Once a week? Every night?"


    "Ms. Tian, how long is your pregnancy period?"


    ''Wait...WHATTTT? Obviously, this has out of control...'' In the flashes, TianTian could see the crowd of her neighbors start to swarm... the curiosity of human of course...and then from inside the house, suddenly a splash of water from a hose attacked the reporter in their surprise.It was Mrs. Tian, accompanied by TianWang.And that attack finally could casted the reporters away.Afterward, TianTian saw how her Mom and brother apologized to their neighbors for the annoyance.


    It was just a start, later on, the day there was a lot of disturbing calls from any media, wanted to interview TianTian.And in one week, bad gossip had to spread in the environment.


    "Do you know, their daughter is a mistress?"


    First, TianTian ignored it when they talked badly about her, but it getting boldly, not only about her but also about her parents and brothers.


    "What a shame, I thought they are respected figure....how did they teach other children if they couldn''t manage their own daughter..."


    "What a fraud...I wonder their sons perhaps also did immoral things behind us..."


    Talking about the bad side of society, it also affected her family''s martial school, the disciples became less and less to come.Only some faithful disciples stayed.One of them was Jeff Chang. who also TianTian''s childhood friend.


    If there was a man who could be allowed to stay beside TianTian by the brothers then it was Jeff Chang.It didn''t mean that he never tasted the test of Tian brothers.In fact, he was the first man who tested by them when they were children and it really traumatized him.That''s why he just could make his feeling to TianTian as a secret, deeply and acted as a best friend ever for her.During the condition, Jeff kept comforting TianTian with words.


    "Don''t worry ''bout the rumors, I believe it would disappear right away...I know you and your family are innocent."


    But all of what happened had made TianTian felt guilty to her parents.Even though her Dad and Mom asked her not to worry about their conditions, TianTian could not stop thinking that she brought a disaster to her home...she wanted to fix all these, no..., she must fix it but how?... How to stop the rumor if you don''t have power in showbiz like...like LiMingHu... If TianTian rethought about it, she became weird why that beast didn''t give any actions after what happened.Doesn''t it also affect him? or does he purposely be silent, waiting for her, TianTian to back to him?''


    "Sister TIANTIAN..." Suddenly hands hugging TianTian from her back but she didn''t reject it cause she knew the voice,


    "TianLang...you come home...I thought you are staying in the college mash?"


    "Is that how you say to your long-time-not-see little brother, Sis? I am disappointing...you see I am missing you so much when I heard you re at home, I immediately managed myself to go home also..."


    "But how about your study?..."


    Among her brothers, TianLang is the most free-spirited, so he is also the one that sometimes makes TianTian worries so much.She tweaks TianLang''s ear like doing to a child,


    "Don''t say that you abandoned the study..."


    "Auchh, noooo, you know I wouldn''t do that, I still don''t want to be killed by our parents..."


    TianTian released him, then seeing TianLang checked either his ear still attached or not, she became guilty,


    "I am sorry, little bro; I just don''t want you to do stupid thing.It is enough for our home that only me did that..."


    "Yeah,I also heard about that... unfortunately, I could not go home faster to meet that bastard, if I could, I would already bake him alive..."


    The way TianLang talked, like always, had making TianTian smiled,


    "Thanks, little Bro, ..."


    "O yeah, where''s big bro? I''m looking for him but couldn''t find him at the class as usual..."


    "He was helping Dad at his drugstore..."


    "Oooh I see, well maybe I need to go there to check Dad also...bye, Sis"


    TianTian looked at her little brother going to the drugstore, TianTian sighed again,


    "Even TianLang purposely came home to check on me...I am really making everyone worry...What an awful sister I am..." TianTian knew that if not because of her, TianLang would prefer enjoying his time at his college than returning home.


    At another place, an intense cold aura was spreading out from an office in Li.Corp Building.Everyone wondered who dared to anger their boss until like that.Over these weeks, everyone felt in hell, cause there was no a day where their president didn''t fire someone, some of them even got kicked out just for their not-so-big mistakes like being late for 1 minute to come when be called by him.They were just unlucky.


    Then in a few weeks after that, no one dared to step in the king''s office except the White fox YuFang who regularly reporting the update condition of what happened to TianTian.


    "Well, everything happens according to my plan...let see how long she can hold on not to meet me..." A big smile drawn on his face, making YuFang wondered in his mind,


    ''Doesn''t he too obsess with that girl? This is the first time he did this much only to get a girl. But that girl maybe will not give up easily.She was not just an ordinary girl after all...'' he signed.


    "Is there anything else, YuFang?"


    "He sent a message to you according to the girl..."


    "....what is it?"


    "He said, ''You may play with the rabbit for awhile but don''t harm the rabbit."


    LiMingHu surprised to hear it,


    ''...Why does that man so extracted with this girl, are they have any connection somehow?Hm, interesting....''


    "Say to him, ''I understood'', any else?"


    "The rest is about the business..."


    "I''m listening..."


    Then They continue busy with business problems.


    In other side of house, TianWang and TianLang gathered secretly behind the house.


    "Too bad that TianKang gets assignment abroad this time..." TianWang laid on the wall.


    "Yeah, he would missed all fun parts" TianLang sat on the rock.


    "Hey, don''t excluding me, i can hear you both" A voice came out from the smartphone that held by TianLang.


    "Seriously, this time our opponent is not easy, its worse indeed.I believe all the rumours started by him to make TianTian give up and back to him."


    "Can''t you do something about it, TianKang? Didn''t you also work in business world? Just stop the rumours."


    suggest TianWang.


    "Its not that easy, brother.I tried but the power behind the news is powerful.Besides I just a secretary, what i can do is limited."


    "So what! Why didn''t we just grab this LiMingHu and threated him like we did to others???" TianLang kicked the stone out of his anger.


    "I am afraid this time is not the same like others.Our opponent is too strong and we are still blind about him.Tell us, TianKang, what do you know about this guy?" TianWang, as the oldest alwayslooked calm.


    TianKang explained as he could about LiMingHu, about his famous nickname, ''the king beast'' and how he crushed his enemies without mercy.


    After listening it, the brothers were silent in mind.But they didn''t give up to protect their beloved sister.


    "Well its really difficult..." Tian Wang slowly said "but we can try..."


    "No matter what, lets do it.I could not forgive anyone who made my sister suffer"


    "Anything you want to do, please do after I am back...."


    "When will you come back from your duty?"


    "tomorrow"


    And then they continue discussed about their plan furthermore.

 10 Lets fight, brothers

    Another day, in the past.


    TianTian was at her house yard, she sat on a swinging chair, her favourite place since she was little to think....


    It just a week since the rumour started, but it seemed didn''t want to vanish easily.Oppositely it became worse; in a moment, TianTian couldn''t stand any longer to see her Mom defensed her all the time in front of their busybody neighbours. Her Mom was always calmed her,


    "Don''t worry about that. TianTian.Remember, as long we are right, we should not afraid and give up..."


    But TianTian was not that strong, she was also missed her job...she had tried to call the principal to explain everything,


    she was hoping to get second chance but the rumours were too strong and it could affected the school so there was impossible for her to teach anymore.Her dream to be a teacher, a noble daughter had destroyed.In this point, TianTian felt hatred so much to LiMingHu, the beast who had destroyed her normal life and thinking so hard how to deal with the situation right now, should she begging to the beast or should she keep running?


    "TianTian..."


    The voice who called her name made her back to the ground.


    "Brother Kang....you''re back..."


    TianKang rushed coming close to her, holding her shoulders, checking her condition, its like if she had some wounds or bruises.


    "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?"


    TianTian remembered that the last time they met was in an awkward situation. ''The one who got hurt was brother Kang, not me'' She smiled regretted.


    "I''m okay, BrotherKang; he didn''t do anything harm to me..." (''well, except for the kiss'') TianTian''s words relieved TianKang. He took off his hands from her, and then sat beside TianTian ,made the chairs swung heavily.


    "Aah, why do you need to involve with that man, TianTian..."


    "I..."


    "I know ... I heard it all... but you stupid girl, why didn''t you call me right away when it happened..."


    "I don''t want to bother you, BrotherKang.I know that you are so busy with your works..."


    "You know i will always come to you no matter how busy i am"


    TianTian smiled sadly,


    ''Yes, I know. and that precisely why i didn''t call...'' Among her brothers, BrotherKang is the one who the most often helps her when she is in trouble.He was ever been punished to cover her at school time, been scolded for her, even been fired from his old job cause of his pervert Boss had eyes on TianTian.


    And many more... TianTian is always indebt to his brother Kang and decided no matter what ,she doesn''t want to drag his brotherKang into any trouble. But now...


    "I am fine, brother....Really fine... You don''t have to worry about me, just keep focus to your job.Don''t trouble your boss with your laziness " TianTian tried to give her best cheerful smile as usual to TianKang.


    "Its okay. You know, Uncle Sam is also worry about you....that''s why he allowed me to go home for a few days, to check your condition.You remember meeting him at that party right?"


    "Yeah, I remember. O right, You never tell that you work for Uncle Sam before?How come?"


    "Well ,its a long story.But when Uncle Sam knew that I am the grandson of his best friend.He gave me a lot of helps in the past...But enough about me, now that everything already become like this ,what will be your plan, TianTian?"


    "I...honestly, i don''t know, but i believe i''ll find a way.I hope that maybe...like in the past, the problems will fade away by itself..."


    For every problem with any boys or men she ever experienced, somehow it was always be solved by itself without TianTian needed to deal with it.


    "...You''re right...you are my lucky sister anyway..." Tian Kang patted TianTian''s head gentle. For a moment, both of them enjoyed the evening view till the other brothers came and joined with them.It was a pleasing moment for TianTian because all her brothers gathered, caring for her.And that is why she loves them so much.


    Meanwhile at that night, LiMingHu which was still in his bad mood, driving back to his house.He just finished having meeting with some clients in the hotel. In the middle of deserted way, a car blocked his way.LiMingHu stopped the car and he could see a man came out from the car.He recognized him as a man he ever punched in a party ,a man who closed to TianTian at that time.Surely he knew it was TianKang, TianTian''s second brother.He smiled, wondering what would can be happened next.He could guessed but he wanted to know for sure...He got out from his car.Both of them walked forward to each others. They looked intensely to each other.


    "Sorry to stop you in the middle of way like this. But we need to talk." said TianKang, trying to be polite as he could.


    "What a coincidence, I also want to talk with you..."


    There were 2 shadows behind LiMingHu, willing to attack him but LiMingHu was sudden whistling, and in a flash, there were another shadows defeated those 2 shadows.When TianKang saw it, he tried to attack LiMingHu but unfortunately LiMingHu was stronger than him.He successfully avoided the attack and give a reverse attack and hitting TianKang''s stomach so hard.


    "Oh, let me correct my words.I am really have a business with three of you, brothers..."LiMingHu then instructed to his men "Take them, you may hit them if they are fighting back, but don''t kill them.I need them to keep alive."


    He lit his cigarette and looked the sky.


    ''Now...now...what should i do to catch a rabbit?''


    In the next day, TianTian decided that she must go far away until everything settled down, or more precisely until that beast gave up on her.She prepared everything she needed.And then she checked the condition of house coz she didn''t wan to tell anybody.TianTian knew that her parents and brothers wouldn''t agree with her idea.They rather keep fighting the rumour for her than letting her go far away from them.But that was exactly what TianTian scared the most.She didn''t wanna make bad scenes anymore for her family nor harm anyone of them.


    So, in the early morning, she put a letter which explaining her decision and then she grabbed her things.Even though there were still having some journalist out of her home; by taking the back way of house,TianTian managed to go out unknown.


    Then in the middle of the way, TianTian felt hungry.She stopped on a small market and bought an instant cup noodle.While she waited for the noodle ready, her smartphone had ringing.TianTian saw the id caller, it was the beast...no, she didn''t want to do anything else with him so she ignored it.The call was coming three times and started to annoyed TianTian,


    ''I better just shutdown my smartphone''


    But before she did that, a message came and she opened it.


    The message was short but it shocked TianTian so much until she accidently made the noodle spilled out.


    This was the message:


    "Come home if you still want to see your brothers alive."


    ''The sender was that beast, Is it possible for him to have my brothers? Yes,it is...If it is right...He had destroyed my life,now he threatens my brothers?!!! That crazy man..."


    TianTian immediately leave the market in hurry, she even almost forgot to grab her bags with her.Second time she returned to get her bags, she was also bought something with her.

 11 You know what I wan

    Back to the house where she supposed to run away from.The luxury Li Mansion was now look like a huge cage for her.


    ''Are my brothers really here?''


    She sighed, and took steps until be in the front of door.She pressed the bell, which the door was right away opened by Aunt Ma, it made TianTian felt surprised, she felt that her presence had been waited.She was entering the beast''s mouth.


    Aunt Ma looked pleased to see TianTian again.She welcomed TianTian warmly this time.Maybe because she could see the big impact of her leaving from this house to her master''s mood.


    "Ms TianTian, welcome back... Let me take care your belongings" And like usual, Aunt Ma worked so efficiently until TianTian didn''t get chance to say no.Aunt Ma instructed for the servants to take TianTian''s bag and delivered it to her room.


    "Come ,Ms TianTian.Mr Li has waiting for you in his office." TianTian followed Aunt Ma slowly to upstairs.


    "Ng, Aunt Ma.Did Mr Li ever bring some men back to this house recently? Maybe three handsome men? Are they hurt?"


    Aunt Ma looked back at TianTian with a confuse expression,


    "What are you talking about, Ms TianTian? You are the only guest that we have in this house, there is no other guests"


    ''So , my brothers are not here.Does it mean that the beast is lying to me? or he keeps them at another place?''


    And then TianTian had standing in front of the office room.


    Aunt Ma knocked the door,


    "Mr Li, Ms TianTian is here now."


    "Let her in"


    Aunt Ma opened the door, and then gestured TianTian to enter,


    ''Gulp...Well, I am already here, i must deal with him soon or later...maybe this is a good chance to clear all things. After this, I swear i will no longer want to stay in the city where he is now.Here we go..." TianTian gathered her courage and enter the room.


    Behind her, Aunt Ma closed the door.At that moment, she felt a little bit trapped.


    She looked to her front, and seeing the king of beast, the crazy and bastard man who let the rumour destroyed her life, and probably caught her brothers, LiMingHu, sitting comfy on his workchair, he was staring back to her...and smiled like in victory.


    "Welcome back, my little rabbit"


    "I am not your little rabbit, Mr Li. Cut your non sense....Where are my brothers?! I just come to..."


    Li MingHu stood from his chair, coming closely to TianTian...seeing TianTian so close triggering him to lost control.


    "I miss you..."


    And without asking, he touched her face and then forced kissing TianTian''s lips.


    ''Again...this crazy man...'' TianTian took out something from her pocket and then


    managed to hurt LiMingHu''s hand with that thing.


    "Auch..." LiMingHu released her, and figured out that TianTian just scraped his hand with a cutter.He felt upset with it.


    "You dare!!!..."


    "Don''t you think I don''t dare after what you did to my life!!! Even though you want to kill me, go ahead...i don''t care..." TianTian stocked up the cutter toward the king.


    "..." LiMingHu felt a little worry seeing TianTian''s reaction...did he push the girl over the edge? But he didn''t know the other way to make this girl be his.He just didn''t want to lose this girl...why she is so hard to get? When he did this method in business, the opponent would always surrender. Why this girl still not surrender yet? Well ,this TianTian; She must learn that he, LiMingHu, always gets what he wants eventually.


    "Then you also don''t care for what will happen to your brothers?" he threaten TianTian.


    "You..." TianTian tried to keep calm even though she felt so furious, "You are a liar...you''re actually don''t have my brothers, right? You''re just using it to threat me..."


    "O is that so? Well than what is this?"


    LiMingHu turned on the smart tv which hanged on the wall beside them.


    In the screen, showed the Tian brothers were being tied, their eyes and mouth were sealed with some clothes.TianTian could see some bleeding bruises on their faces.


    ''Oh no...'' TianTian got shocked and shivered anger to see what inside the screen.


    LiMingHu once again came forward and he held the cutter with his bare left hand and talked slowly to TianTian,


    "I will not harm them as long as you come back to me..."


    TianTian stared fiercely to him,


    "How can I believe you....You did hurt them...you''re bastard!!"


    "Well, at least i didn''t kill them...yet"


    "No..no way...you are crazy, you cannot just killed people easily...."


    LiMingHu just stared sharply to TianTian and smiled, "What do you think...?"


    ''This man is really crazy...what should I do?''


    TianTian suddenly felt so limp, she let the cutter go from her hands, and then be thrown by LiMingHu to the floor.


    "Lets stop playing hide and seek anymore, TianTian.If only you didn''t run and had kept your promise, I wouldn''t do this far..."


    "What...what do you want?"


    LiMingHu stepped closer to her , whispered to her right ear,


    "You know what I want...I want you..."


    TianTian''s mind was messy right now ,she just could think two options right now.Neither the options were ending good for her.But she just didn''t want to give up, TianTian pushed LiMingHu, took the cutter again and this time , put it on her own neck.


    "TIANTIAN, what do you think you''re doing right know?!" LiMingHu surprised to see TianTian''s reaction, which was not what he expected at all.


    "Don''t you say you want me? But how if I die...will you still want me? What you''re done is useless...!!!" This was her last chance.If her death could save her brothers and gave a peace to her family. why not?


    LiMingHu was so furious but also admired TianTian because till this point, she didn''t give up fighting back to him.''She is really special...'' But of course, he wouldn''t let TianTian die easily.


    "Then after you die, I will still kill your brothers, or even destroy your parents because I will so furious, TianTian! Well, later because you had died, no one can protect them anymore..."


    And that''s it. After hearing those words, nothing TianTian could do anymore except giving up. She could hold the tears to come out, she felt weak...


    LiMingHu once again came closer to her, taking the cutter from her and this time broke it with all his power and threw it to the trash bin.


    "You...hik...you are crazy bastard man...hik..."


    "Do you really want me to kill your family?" LiMingHu swept TianTian''s tears with his hands, he even kisses her eyes gently.


    "Nooo...hik hik....please let them go...hik hik hik...please don''t harm them..."


    "Well, and then what can I get from that?"


    "Hik...I....I promise...hik... i will not run away...anymore..hik hik"


    "and what? TianTian, you should now what I really want to hear from you."


    TianTian now felt very weak, she even hated herself to become this powerless.


    "I...I...hik hik...surrender...hik..hik...I am yours .. just let my family go..."


    ''Finally...'' LiMingHu felt victorious and satisfy to hear those words from TianTian,


    "Yes, you are mine ,TianTian.... don''t ever go from me anymore..." Then LiMingHu couldn''t hold his desire to kiss TianTian... He had won and she was his reward to be enjoyed. So he tasted her slowly.He started by kissing her gently.He kissed her eyes, then her nose and then her lips.... TianTian didn''t fight back, she just kept crying...


    But when the kissing became more intense, when it started moving to her neck, her collarbone and the king''s hands started to find a way to touch her body.TianTian became so afraid with the touchings, she started to reject it as she could.


    "No...hik...please...please...no...stop..."


    "TianTian, I want you..." The desire had became so strong that LiMingHu had really becoming a beast...he had cornered TianTian to a sofa close to them and then he was forcely opening TianTian''s shirt ,his hands grabbed her breasts fiercely and he kept kissing her body.


    TianTian started to scream,


    "NOo...PLEASE...STOPPPP..."


    A loud knocking from outside made the king back on his mind, even thought he felt upset for the disturbing sound.


    "WHAT IS IT???!!"


    "I am sorry to disturb, Mr Li but there is Mr YuFang below, want to meet you.He said this is very confidential."


    ''Confidential'' is the clue between Mr Li and Mr YuFang if they need to talk about important thing, mostly about ''that man''s message.


    "Sh*t" LiMingHu looked at TianTian.He realized that he was too impatience, he almost eaten TianTian up.He then gently tidied up TianTian''s shirt and wiped her tears.


    "Don''t cry anymore.You may take a rest and wait for me later okay"


    He wanted to kiss her again, but TianTian reacted terrified to his touch. Then LiMingHu just kissed her cheek gently and stood up.


    But before he went, TianTian suddenly grabbed his pants.LiMingHu surprised and confused,


    "What is it?


    "My brothers..."


    "Don''t worry, I will keep my promise.Your brothers will be released soon without any harm, as long you''re also keep your promise to stay beside me..."


    Then TianTian released him.


    LiMingHu opened the door, and instructed Aunt Ma to take care of TianTian , while he went to downstair and met the whitefox YuFang.


    Aunt Ma was a little surprised to see TianTian''s condition, she felt pity on TianTian, thats why she was saying softly to her,


    "Come, dear....let we clean you first..."


    "Hik...huuuhh....huuuuhh..." TianTian couldn''t hold her tears for that kindness. She laid down her head to Aunt Ma like an exhausted little child.


    "Now now dear....don''t cry....let me help you walk okay..." Aunt Ma stroke her hair gently while they kept walking out from the office and walked through the alley to her room.


    At downstair, while waiting LiMingHu cleaned up himself and went down, he could see TianTian walking with Aunt Ma, out of the office room.


    ''Hm...the little rabbit is finally once again trapped,...what a poor girl.'' He felt pity on TianTian, but he knew he couldn''t do anything to help her either.''Well, better not to be involve too deep in this king''s private matter'' That was his own rule to keep his life in peace.


    "YuFang..." LiMingHu had went down and now walking forward YuFang.


    "What is it this time?"


    "Well, ''He'' had heard about the rumour and ordered us to stop it in any cost coz he infers that it may affecting the good name of the company."


    "Hm, really?" LiMingHu felts strange, all these years, ''He'' didn''t put a lot of attention to the company, why this time he was being irritated with the rumour,... unleast..." LiMingHu stared the upstair room, TianTian''s room, but he shook his own head softly ''It can''t be! I had checked her background, is it impossible if they know each others?...beside if she is really that important, why doesn''t ''He'' just command him to let her go?... it must be because of other reason...but what?''


    "I don''t get his purpose this time...and i don''t like this!"


    "Do you think he starts to aim the company?"


    "That is one of the possibility but I wont let it so easily" Not after all his hard works to build the Li company and also his sacrifice to ''him''.


    "Just do what he wants for now" Beside LiMinghu was also already gets what he wants for now, he didn''t need that rumours anymore.


    "Alright..." YuFang bowed to LiMingHu and then was leaving.But before he reached the door, YuFang turned around, "This is none of my business but I am curious...how long do you want to keep that girl with you?"


    "I don''t know...maybe years...maybe forever.But you know what,it is really none of your business!"


    LiMingHu stared sharply to YuFang, which terrified YuFang,


    "Lets pretending that I never ask...bye"


    then he just left the house.


    LiMingHu stared again to the upstair.


    "One thing for sure, I''ll keep her closely this night..."

 12 I am sorry Mom

    At the bathroom, TianTian looked her naked reflection in the mirror.She could see some red marks of hickeys on her necks.And her lips....she still could felt the taste of tobacco when he kissed her.


    TianTian knew cleaning her body so badly couldn''t removing the marks, but she kept did it.


    Tears were streamed again out from her eyes, but she cried in silent.


    TianTian shook her head, wiped the tears.She cried because she felt weak, she angered to herself.It was not the first time the beast had touched her anyways, but in this morning, the touchings were felt more intense.What made TianTian furious to herself that she didn''t feel sick with the touchings, it roused a weird desire of her body instead. But for the first time in her life, she felt that man domination could be so scary. She was just too scared.TianTian shivered when she thought of that.But she tried to keep herself sane ,she talked to her reflection in the mirror.


    "No, TianTian...you must be strong!!! First I need to check if the beast really had letting your brothers go... Then..., and then we''ll find another way...remember like GrandPa always said,''there will be always a way, you just don''t see it yet...''


    After she had cleanse up,Aunt Ma took her to the dinner room, preparing a warm soup or her.


    "Its not good to let your stomach empty too long.I believe this morning you didn''t have a proper breakfast.Please sit here and enjoy your breakfast.."


    TianTian didn''t have much appetite actually after what happened but the kindness of Aunt Ma touched her so she ate up the soup a little.She was able to take few spoons and then Aunt Ma served her a warm tea to drink.TianTian looked around,


    "Where is he?" she asked slowly.


    "Who...ah..you mean Mr Li? He has gone to work.But he has ordering me to take a good care of you, Ms TianTian. Don''t worry about anything else.You may relaxing in this house all day and waiting for his return this night.He said that he will go home as soon as he can for you."


    "gulp"...''That beast can''t wait to continue what he want this night... what should I do !!! I pray that his works can hold him longer, it will better if he held at work until tomorrow!'' TianTian stopped thinking about that, now she was concern about her brothers, she must checked either the beast had released them or not.


    "Aunt Ma, I want to go out..." TianTian went to the door,


    "Ah...Miss TianTian..."


    But what a surprise, TianTian saw her previous bodyguard, Ali and his friend were standing, guarding the house, keeping watch on her precisely.


    "Ms TianTian, please go back into the house.Mr Li has giving a clear order that you may not go out from the house without his permission." Ali explained.


    ''So I am in my cage now....''


    "I will come back soon...I just wanna to check my family first."


    "Please ask Mr Li''s permission first, Ms TianTian."


    TianTian knew its useless to ask the king''s permission, so she gave up the idea.


    "Okay..." TianTian felt upset but she returned back into the house.she wandered around the house, thinking what should she do right now. She was so worry with her brothers.She didn''t realize that other servants were looking at her strangely.


    Then Aunt Ma came and surprised her,


    "Your phone is ringing. Ms TianTian..."


    TianTian took it, "Thanks Aunt Ma", Aunt Ma returned to her job in the kitchen while TianTian was checking the id caller...


    ''Its Brother Kang !'' She immediately went to the living room, where there was no one around, then she answered the phone,


    "Brother Kang, are you okay? Where are you...."


    "I am the one who want to ask you TianTian, where the hell are you??? You are leaving the confusing letter here. Mom and Dad were worry deadly now. Are you really leaving this house?Where are you right now??"


    "I''m.....Wait, brother Kang! You are at home? How about Brother Wang and TianLang? Are all you has return home safely?"


    "We are...Everyone has return at home now..." TianTian was so relieved, "But TianTian, how..how do you know? TianTian ,don''t say that you....are you going to that bastard? Did he threaten you? Is that why he let us go easily?... Don'' worry TianTian, we will save you..."


    TianTian sudden remember the words of that beast, ''I will kill your brothers and entire your family...''


    "NO!!...No...don''t come...don''t do that, I am okay...Listen, brother Kang..." TianTian'' mind searched the right words to say..."He..he didn''t force me, I...I am the one who want to go to him...this is my own decision..."


    "What?? TianTian ,are you insane? It can''t be truth...That bastard must be had threaten you !! TianTian, don''t listen to him.It was our false though....we were underestimate him before...but we won''t next time.Just tell us where are you know, we pick you up and then we solve this problem together..."


    ''That''s what i am afraid most, there won''t be the next time.I am afraid if that beast will really killed you next time, brothers...''


    "No...You are wrong, Brother Kang.I...I have thinking a lot and change my mind...being his woman is not that bad.He can buy me anything i want, and i don''t need to be suffer anymore...I can live in luxury...."


    "TianTian...what happen to you? This is not real you talking!! .."


    TianTian held her tears and tried to suppress her sick feeling in her belly, she was never telling a big lie before in her life, especially to her own family.She heard another voice took the phone,


    "Let me talk to her...TianTian, this is Mom....and I want you to tell the truth right now! Don''t be fool and just go home! We will fighting that bastard together until the end"


    "No Mom. I won''t come back....I said I decided to be his woman.Please don''t bother to find me or take me home...i won''t go with any of you"


    "TIANTIAN??! What has possessing you? Are you serious with your words.... if you did that, you know you will humiliate yourself and entire family!! Have some senses for god sake! "


    "....Then...I''ll cut my tie with Tian Family from now....No matter what you say, Mom. I will not go back to home anymore, I promise I won''t humiliate Tian Family, just please forget this filial daughter, pretending that your daughter is already dead and keep on your life healthy..."


    "What? TianTian?...you..."


    TianTian disconnected the call, she couldn''t held her tears. She squatted down, hugging herself like a sulking child.She also could felt in her neck, like having a big rock blocking her throat.She was hardly to breathe and she sobbed,


    ''Mom....Dad,...Brothers....I am so so sorry...so sorry.....I need to do this so you all save from that beast....I need to hurt you so you all won''t come and do anything danger.... You can punish me as much as you want later when that beast finally bore and let me go...''


    Aunt Ma enter to check TianTian, and surprised to see her condition,


    "Are you okay, Ms TianTian? Come, let just go to the bedroom and take a rest..."


    TianTian just let Aunt Ma led her up to the bedroom.


    TianTian felt dizzy after crying a lot, she laid on the bed and tried to sleep for a while.She wanted to forget all the problems for a while and also gained more energy to fight with the beast later.


    But in this point, she was thinking, how to make that beast letting her go? Is it enough by just giving what he wants? But as a maiden who comes from traditional family, she has been taught to keep her dignity and just can giving herself to her future husband.How could she easily giving it to that beast...?


    ''Stupid TianTian, do you think right now you still can protect yourself from that beast? Now you are in his nest. No matter you want or not, it can''t be avoided.''


    ''No!!! I rather die before that happens... Don''t we still have an agreement for 3 months.It has been 2 months passed.Still have 1 month left.''


    TianTian''s mind was so busy debating what will happen later...


    A knocking from Aunt Ma made TianTian awoke from her thinking.Aunt Ma brought a medicine for TianTian''s headache and stomachache.TianTian felt grateful and drank them all.


    Aunt Ma took the empty drink, and then helped tiding the blanket, to cover TianTian,


    "Please don''t think too much, Ms TianTian.You must take care of yourself or you will make Mr Li feel worry."


    "He won''t..."


    "Ms TianTian, please give Mr Li a chance.I have seen him grown soI know that he is a hard man to deal, but it is also because since little, he had lost his family.Honestly, he never attracted to any women like what he did to you.You are the first woman I see who can stir his mood this last month.Since you went last month, Mr Li didn''t had any good appetites and sleeps, worse than before.I remember only one time, he was having good sleep , it is when after he slept with you that day.Oh, I am sorry that I am talked too much.I leave you for resting now, MsTianTian." Then Aunt Ma left.


    ''Is that beast really has a strong affection to her?'' TianTian shook her head, she believes it just because different than other woman, until now she didn''t yet give herself fully to him.But when he already gets what he wants ,TianTian believes that the affection will fading away.Yeah, it seemed the only way to being free from him, by giving herself to the beast.


    TianTian could not thinking anymore as the side effects of the medicine had worked.In a minute, TianTian had fallen asleep.

 13 An unexpected Nigh

    ''MOM...''


    Ms Tian is giving a disappointing face, "You are a filial daughter...you give a shame in this family...."


    ''DAD...''


    Mrs Tian closes his eyes, shook his head, "I don''t have a daughter like you.You chose wealth upon this family..."


    '' BROTHER TIANWANG..''


    " I can''t believe it, TianTian.I regretted to protect you from that bastard..."


    ''BROTHER TIANKANG..''


    " After what he did to us??! Didn''t you know how he beat us so badly...how could you...?"


    ''TIANLANG..''


    " For all these years, I never know that you are so materialistic, Sister Tian.How disappointing...let go, everyone..."


    ''Noooo,...its not true....I love you all, I did it to protect you all.....I am sorry...please...please don''t leave me alone...PLEASE COME BACK....!''


    TianTian cries and kneels down, seeing all disappear from her sight...


    "Now..now...who makes my TianEr cry so badly?"


    TianTian looks up and can''t believe who she sees.


    "Grandpa...Hikkkhikk...Grandddpaa..."


    TianTian fold her elbows around Grandpa''s shoulders so tightly and then cries... suddenly she turns into a small child and they are at house yard of Grandpa''s house like in the past.


    "Don''t cry, My TianEr..." Grandpa pats little TianTian''s back gently.


    "You didn''t do anything wrong in your heart, right? Remember, as long you keep your heart right, don''t fear and be strong! No one can really really defeat you and you will find a way...There is always a way for the one who has a strong heart..."


    "Hik....hik...yes Grandpa Hik..."


    TianTian opened her eyes.Turns out it just a dream, but she felt it so real.TianTian sat on her bed,


    ''Grandpa is right...I must be strong and not give up, not yet...'' Her Grandpa reminded her what is important.


    She looked at the clock wall, it was almost 11 pm.She had sleep almost all day.Then she heard her stomach''s sounding loud, demanding a food.TianTian decided to go out from her room and tried to find food at the kitchen.


    When TianTian stepped downstairs, she already could smelled the yummy flavours came from the kitchen.Aunt Ma who noticed her coming, smiled and welcomed her to sit at the dinner room.


    "Please sit here, Ms TianTian.I am glad you are awake at the right time.The dinner will be served soon.Please wait a little bit more..."


    ''Dinner? at 11 pm? Is it cooked for me only or...?''


    Aunt Ma seemed knowing her mind, she explained more,


    "Mr Li will come home soon and he want to have a dinner with you."


    ''As I thought...but what then? I am afraid that beast will not satisfy by just eating the dinner...'' TianTian sudden felt her body became so tense, she folded her arms.She knew what could be happened later and she was not ready yet...so not ready...


    A car arrived at the outside of house, Aunt Ma immediately rushed to the front door, opened it and welcomed the homecoming of the master of this house like usual.


    "Welcome back, Mr Li..."


    "Aunt Ma, where is she?" LiMingHu gave her coat to Aunt Ma.


    "Ms.TianTian just wake up from her sleep and now she is waiting at the dinner room." Aunt Ma answered.


    "I see..." LiMingHu loosen his tie, and walked straight to the dinner room.


    ''He has back!'' TianTian''s heart was beating so hard,...she clenched her hands, she didn''t know how toexpress her feeling in her face, angry? yes; scare? yes; hurted? also yes; disgust? maybe a little...


    LiMingHu was so please to see TianTian still in his house.In this last month, how many times he imagined this scene, able to see TianTian when he went home.


    He then came closer to TianTian , standing at her back and held her shoulders while he kissed TianTian''s right cheek softly.Then he sat beside TianTian''s right side,


    "Aunt Ma, Is the food not ready yet?" He held TianTian''s right hand tightly on the table.He looked to her closely, "Are you waiting for me to eat?" He purposely whispered to TianTian''s right ear, " That''s good, I can wait to ''eat'' also...'', it was making TianTian''s ears turns red and she felt tinkling on her body.


    TianTian tried to take off her hand but LiMingHu''s grip became more tight, he didn''t want to let her hand go.


    "I am not going anywhere.Let go my hand..."


    "...I don''t want to...you said it yesterday, you are mine... this hand is mine now..."


    He raised TianTian''s right hand closer to his lips, and kissed it.


    ''Crazy...crazy beast!!'' TianTian just can shouted in her mind as her face had turned red.


    In that moment, Aunt Ma came and led other servants to serve the food.Once again TianTian was distracted and temped with the food coz once again ,all the food served were her favourite food.


    "If you don''t let my hand go, how can I eat?"


    "I can feed you..." LiMingHu took a fork of meat slice and then put it in front of TianTian''s mouth, gesturing her to open her mouth and eat it.


    ''Now he treats me as like i am his pet!!!''


    Some servant who watched it couldn''t held their smiles and giggling.It embarrassed TianTian. She stared angrily to LiMingHu,


    "I can eat by myself.If you do this, I won''t eat at all..."


    LiMingHu laughed a little, He didn''t pissed at all coz he liked to see the rebelled TianTian, the part which makes her so attractive to the king.He put down the fork and finally freed her hand.


    "I won''t bother you anymore...let''s just eat..." Then he started enjoying his own food.


    TianTian didn''t know how to respond him after all. Her tummy sounded louder again so she just concentrated with her own food.In a next few minutes, both of them didn''t talk at all and just enjoyed their own food.But Aunt Ma could see, that her master''s appetite today was much better than this last month.


    As time passed on, LiMingHu had finished his food meanwhile TianTian was purposely not to finish her food yet.


    She tried to eat slowly as she could.But it didn''t bother LiMingHu.After drinking his water, LiMingHu just stayed on his seat and enjoyed looking at TianTian.He stared on her eyes, her lips, her body... its so intense that made TianTian felt uncomfort.


    The food was almost finish.It was a few spoons more.TianTian kept thinking for her next move...


    ''What should I do?...After this...I don''t have any reason to reject him...I can''t run nor fight him back...He is too strong...''


    TianTian ate the last spoon of food.Now her plate was finish of food and then she drank her water slowly till she managed to drink all water in the glass.


    LiMingHu sudden gave a signal, and the servants immediately cleaned all plates on the table and another servant came and served a bottle of wine with two empty wine glasses.Then Aunt Ma instructed all servants to leave the dinner room andin a second, there were no one except TianTian and LiMingHu in that room.


    TianTian stared confusedly to LiMingHu, while LiMingHu opened the wine and pour it to the wine glasses.He then gave one wine glass into TianTian''s right hand.While he took another glass and made a small tap sound with the glasses.He drank it till the glass was empty and then gesturing TianTian to drink it too.His body slowly bent closer to TianTian, he put his left hand on TianTian''s shoulder.


    "Drink it with me...I want to celebrate our first night..." Once again he whispered it to TianTian''s ear while his right hand grabbed TianTian''s right hand which holding the wine glass and guided it smoothly but firm that made TianTian couldn''t not stop herself from drinking that wine.LiMingHu kept locking his eyes on her eyes.


    TianTian could felt her heart''s beating so fast...she admitted that somehow her body seemed being hypnotised by LiMingHu''s charm eyes and his smooth gestures but she was still not giving up.


    "Ughh..." Sudden she bent her body and her left hand touched her stomach...


    It surprised LiMingHu,...


    "What happens?"


    "My stomach hurts..." TianTian hoped that her acts could fooled LiMingHu. "I need to go to the bathroom" She then took a chance to go to the living room, where there is a bathroom and then she closed the door before LiMingHu could responded.


    At first, LiMingHu felt worry but after some minutes, TianTian didn''t come out and he didn''t hear any sound from inside bathroom. Then LiMingHu realized that this woman once again tried to run away from him.He smiled.


    Meanwhile in the bathroom, TianTian was thinking hard to survive at least for this night, she couldn''t stay all night in the bathroom...she only could tried anyway...


    A knocking made TianTian put her aware. She knew it was LiMingHu,


    "TianTian, are you okay?"


    "I...I am...not okay....I ...I think I eat too much....uughh...my stomach is really hurt... Why don''t you go sleep first.... it will take a while..don''t wait for me..."


    ''Please...please just go...just leave me alone for tonight...'' TianTian prayed inside her mind.


    "..." LiMingHu didn''t answer immediately,


    "Very well, if that so, I am leaving now..."


    Then silent.


    ''Did he really go? Did I fool him?''


    TianTian was not sure ,but she was hearing no sound at all outside.For a minute she waited, then she slowly opened the door.She just took one step out of the bathroom then suddenly a hand pulled her and carried her on.


    LiMingHu was lying.He actually just waited patiently till TianTian went out from the bathroom.Then he carried her on and walked upstairs to TianTian''s bedroom.


    "No...no...put me down..." TianTian tried to fight back but useless...


    LiMingHu entered the bedroom and threw her down on the bed.


    "You can''t do this...!! We still have a contract!!!" TianTian arose and tried to remind the three month contract, hoping LiMingHu could stopped.


    LiMingHu pushes her back laying on the bed and he was being on her,


    "The contract is not applicable since you run away to your family, remember?! Stop fighting, TianTian! You are mine.Since beginning you are always be mine.Why do you play so hard?!!" LiMingHu started to kissed her again and again; his hands sealed TianTian''s hand, so she couldn''t pushed him back.


    "Because I don''t love you...I don''t want!!!"


    LiMingHu stopped, he couldn''t believe he became so anger to hear those words... He never cared before about ''love'', No he didn''t!It just a lust that he wanting TianTian fully.


    "So what,...I''ll giving you a love pleasure right now, TianTian...you don''t need to love me...but I want you..." After that, LiMingHu became so rough in kissing and bitting TianTian''s body, giving a lot of hickeys around TianTian''s collarbones.He ripped off TianTian''s cloth; and started to knead TianTian''s boobs and kissing it.It made TianTian felt weird, she couldn''t stopped to moan...


    it was hurt...but some how she felt aroused. She also felt weak to fight back.


    "No..noo...aaaahh..aaah.no.."


    While he put his tongue inside TianTian''s mouth, kissing her passionately, LiMingHu didn''t waste the time to take off his pants, and also finding a way to touch TianTian''s hole below.He could felt that below part of TianTian had became wet,


    "What is it? So you are enjoying too,...you are so wet...let me enter you, TianTian"


    "No..." TianTian cried, she didn''t ready yet...


    But when LiMingHu looked to his hand... he stopped.


    "Sh*t", He suddenly turned away from TianTian...then he put his pants back and went out from the room...


    "What?...What happened...why suddenly he stopped?" TianTian confused, but also relieved.Suddenly she was really feeling hurt in her below stomach,


    "Auch..." Something wet at her below part, she checked it; Turned out she got her menstruation... the bedcover became full of dirty blood.


    She now understood why the beast left the room.


    ''Thanks God....he stopped...hik...hik...''


    A knocking came from outside, it was Aunt Ma,


    "Miss TianTian, Mr Li asked me to help you clean up..." She saw the blood and understood..."Oh no need to cry, Ms TianTian...It just a bad time...wait until your period ended, both of you still can do it again any times..."


    While LiMingHu was taking a shower also in his own bedroom.He punched the bathroom wall to express his disappointing.


    ''Damn! Why did she must having menstruation at this moment...I felt terrible doing it while she is in that condition...''


    He calmed himself...recalling the words from TianTian, *Because I don''t love you, I don''t want* His heart felt uncomfort again.


    "I don''t believe that I can''t make you surrender, TianTian....Maybe next time...yeah, next time....I can wait..."

 14 Tame the beas

    *Miaaawww...*


    "Nooo...go away from there..."


    *Miaaawwww*


    Little TianTian is trying to chase a wild cat away from an antique table in her GrandPa''s shop.


    "What is it, TianEr? Why are you shouting?"


    "Grandpaaa, this wild cat doesn''t want to go, it will making the table dirty later..."


    "Haiyahh, maybe the cat loves being there...if you are shouting all the time to it, it won''t happy and obey to you...Now, let see..." Grandpa takes some fish snack, and then lures the wild cat to come,


    "Come...kitty kitty kitty....here a food for you..."


    The wild cat stares to Grandpa and then to the food, then it slowly goes away from the table and comes to Grandpa.Grandpa gives the food gently to the cat, and rubs its head softly.


    "See....don''t fight with the beast, TianEr...but you must tame them..."


    "Grandpa, you are great..." Little Tan is amazed with what Grandpa did, hugs him warmly.She closes her eyes.


    A soft voice was waking her up.


    "Wake up...Wake up Ms TianTian..."


    TianTian opens her eyes, she blinks her eyes and sees Aunt Ma was waking her up in the morning.


    "What is it, Aunt Ma?"


    "Mr Li is waiting for you.Lets get ready soon, don''t let he wait too long..."


    ''What? What does he want from me in the morning?" In confusion, TanTan follows the guide of Aunt Ma. She cleaned her self, and Aunt Ma prepares cloth for her, a simple and cute informal blue dress.


    ''A cloth for walk? Does he want to take me some place? But it still work day right? Doesn''t that beast should go to work?''


    In confusion, TanTan went out from her room and walked downstairs, she can see LiMingHu had waited for her.


    "Finally...wasting some minutes..." He just grabbed TianTian''s hand and pulled her into the car, "Come, we''re getting late..."


    "But go where...?"


    LiMingHu didn''t answer yet, he moves to driver seat and started to drive.


    "You can''t just pull me and take me go like this!!! Where are we going???"


    "You come with me to Li Company, you will accompany me to work..."


    "What??? But Why....I don''t work there..."


    "You are now...as my private assistant .."


    "What??? I don''t want, I don''t ask the job....you can''t just hire anyone you like...You even didn''t ask me first?! Stop the car, I want to go back!"


    Suddenly LiMingHu stopped the car at the way side but he didn''t unlock the doors so TianTian couldn''t get out immediately.


    "OPEN THE DOOR!!"


    "And what?" LiMingHu pinched her chin to force TianTian looking at him closely,


    "Do i need to send you back home so you can run away again from me like before?"


    TianTian stared angrily to LiMingHu but it just made him can''t hold himself not to kiss her.So he kissed her, again and again until he satisfied kissing TianTian, he took off his hands.


    ''Unbelievable...all in this beast head just a lust...."TianTian wiped her lips harshly expressed her anger.In her shock, she couldn''t say anything.


    "Now be a good girl and sit nicely..."


    LiMingHu drove his car again.


    This time TianTian became silent, she just looked at the car window.She was thinking how to deal with this beast, the more she fight him, he became more fierce and too force.


    ''Remember TianEr...don''t fight with the beast,...but you must tame them..''


    Sudden TianTian remembered her dream, more precisely what her Grandpa said in her dream... is it about this beast? Should I tame him? But how? Giving what he wants? He is not just a street cat, Grandpa...What should I do to tame this beast???


    "...do I just need to accompany you all day at work?" TianTian calmed down her tone as possible she can.She was trying to tame the beast beside her.


    "...Yes" LiMingHu kept focus driving the car.


    "But it will seem weird to anyone in the office, also your workers.. what will they thinking later?"


    "I don''t care."


    ''But I care...they will seeing me like a mistress who no shame to follow man at his work''


    "But I will not comfort with it, listen LiMingHu..." TianTian gulped before she decided to touch LiMingHu right hand which on the gear shift. "I will accompany you all day, okay... but help me a favor...can we do it in secret? I mean not all people in your company need to know about me..."


    ''What is it, now she is willing to touch me by herself...well, its good anyway.I like it. That means this girl finally makes her sense and gives up...''


    "Its too late, woman.Everyone is already know about you.The news, remember?"


    "I thought the news has already be erased?"TianTian pulled off her hand from LiMingHu hand but then LiMingHu caught it and held it tightly.


    "Yes, for the outsiders but not in Li Company.You already famous as my woman.." He kissed TianTian''s hand, which immediately being pulled again by TianTian forcefully.


    And then they arrived at Li Company.


    LiMingHu drove his car into the private parking place at 100th floor, which is the highest floor in the building.It directed to his office right away.


    "Don''t worry about others, you will seldom meet other workers in my office.Come..." LiMingHu opened door for TianTian like gentleman, and TianTian sighed before she went out from the car.When she just stepped out from the car, LiMingHu at once was holding her hand again and pulled her with him entering the office.


    In front of office, had waited YuFang, the whitefox and Miss Yan, LiMingHu''s secretary.They greeted LiMingHu politely but being ignored by LiMingHu like usual.He just directed to his own office room with TianTian, YuFang followed them.Meanwhile Miss Yan seemed didn''t surprise and didn''t concern with TianTian''s attendance and continued her works like usual.


    Inside the room LiMingHu guided TianTian to the sofa,


    "Sit here... make sure that I can see you when I work"


    ''Just sit and then what? become a statue...?'' TianTian feels annoyed but she can''t say anything as a protest yet, because LiMingHu just left her and then talked to YuFang with seriously.


    YuFang seems amazed for the fact that TianTian was in LiMingHu''s room.This was the first time LiMingHu allowed a woman to stay longer than 5 minutes in his office.Even for any important woman clients, he would prefer to meet them in other places than in his own office.


    "You...really take her here..."


    "Yes, I need to keep watching her...I won''t let her run away again... Alright, back to work...give me the update of everything..."


    "Well, nothing crucial can be reported, all progress of works are smooth.Only one thing about the new image of new cosmetic product, the agency hasn''t decide which model fit for the job.Some candidates from our agency had been chosen but they want to make sure that the model fits also with Li company image. They will send the photos this morning."


    "Alright, leave them on the desk. I''ll check them later.How about the condition of Li company in the stock market, any moves?"


    "Well...nothing odd yet.Do you really thinking..." YuFang looked to TianTian who started make her busy with all magazines or books she can find around the table in front of her.


    "I want to know for sure..." LiMingHu understood what YuFang tried to say,


    "What ''he'' asked last time was a little unusual...keep checking it for me..."


    "Roger...so I will go now to continue my job, o right, don''t forget that annual shareholder meeting will held in 30 minutes later...." YuFang then permittedto go politely, to LiMingHu and also to TianTian.


    After YuFang went out, LiMingHu just sat and then focus to read all documents on his desk. TianTian was felt being ignored now so she finally spoke her mind,


    "LiMingHu, what on hell I need to do here?? I can''t just doing nothing while waiting for you until finish? Please at least give me any job to do to kill the time..." TianTian still tried her best to say it nicely.


    LiMingHu didn''t answer immediately, but he gestured TianTian to come to him.TianTian did it, she came closer and then suddenly LiMingHu pulled her waist, and lifted her on his lap.


    "What...No.." TianTian surprised and tried to release herself.


    "Don''t move!" LiMingHu scolded her, so TianTian stopped struggling.Beside she remembered that she must tame this beast.LiMingHu whispered on her left ear,


    "Your job is to be with me...If you bore, you can try to please me anytime"


    The king teased her, made TianTian''s ear turned red as tomato. There was no other word that TianTian could say except one word,


    ''"pervert..."


    At that moment, Miss Yan had knocked the door, LiMing Hu instructed her to come in but he was not willing to let TianTian go.


    So when Miss Yan came in and put the document on the desk, she widen her eyes seeing TianTian sat on LiMingHu''s lap but she tried her best not to give any reaction.Even so, TianTian felt so much embarrassed.


    "Put me down please, I am feel shame..."


    "No" LiMingHu pretended to ignore her request coz he enjoyed to see an embarrassing face of TianTian.He tried to continue his job, he opened the document that just be delivered, it contained some photos of Li agency''s models.


    "Look...there are so many pretty woman in your company....they even more beautiful than me....Why don''t you try to make them your woman? Call them to accompany you to work also!"


    ''Maybe by that, he will see that i am a boring woman compared with these women and let me go...come on...''


    LiMingHu stared happily to TianTian,


    "Are you..jealous to them?"


    "What? No...I am not jealous... Ahh nevermind..."


    ''Oh My God, what is exactly in this beast''s head...I try to offer another woman to him but he thought that it is an act of jealousy??? I never can understand his mind!''


    "Don''t worry with these women....I am not attracted to them at all...I just attracted to you..." Once again TianTian wasn''t strong enough to take LiMingHu''s flirt, her face turns red.There was no man before giving such strong affection to her like this beast.


    "Beside they all are ugly....Look at her...so skinny right?" LiMingHu took randomly the photo and showed to TianTian, and what a coincidence, it was WenWen''s photo...


    "Wait...its WenWen...Does she also be one of the candidate...?" Oh how TianTian missed WenWen so much.They hadn''t met yet since the rumour started.WenWen didn''t call nor send any message.TianTian knew that WenWen must be very angry to her, and still ignoring her completely like the usual she did to any close person who hurt her


    "Who?"


    "WenWen...she is my friend.Don''t you remember you threaten me with her? You said if I didn''t obey the deal, you would fired her?"


    "Ah...WenWen...I remember."


    "So...is she good?"


    "Hm?"


    "I mean..., if she is one of the candidate.That means she has high potential right? Do you think she can defeat other candidates and be chosen to do the job?"


    LiMingHu looked to the photo more detail and thinking, ''She is indeed has a potential....beside because of this woman, I can meet and have TianTian now...so she deserves to get a reward...''


    "Well, what do you think?"


    TianTian was hoping that WenWen couldget the job.Maybe this was her selfishness, that by helping WenWen, she hoped it could ease WenWen''s anger to her later.But she was also sincerely wishing WenWen to be success.


    LiMingHu kissed TianTian''s cheek gently,


    "You''re right.Lets trusting your choice this time... Beside if this WenWen failed the company, you are willing to pay the compensation to me, right?"


    "What?...oh,alright I will accept any kind of compensations....but it won''t happen coz I have faith in WenWen...She will be success..." TianTian felt be challenged by LiMingHu,but she never back off from any challenges.


    And then LiMingHu made a calling.After that, WenWen was officially becoming a new image of LiCompany''s new cosmetic product.


    The next minutes, another calling from Miss Yan, reminding him about the annual shareholder meeting.


    So Finally LiMingHu released TianTian and then kissed her deeply and intensely before he went out from the office.The king didn''t forget to warn TianTian, not to go anywhere and stay in his office until he back.Outside of the office, LiMingHu instructed Miss Yan to order place for 2 people in a five star Li Hotel for a dinner tonight.


    After LiMingHu went out, TianTian laid back on the sofa, thinking ''Did I have tame the beast? He chose WenWen because i asked him! Will he do the same also if I ask him to treat me more gently?''. TianTian touched her lips, she didn''t know since when she got used with the beast''s wild kissing.Lately her body started to enjoy it, she embraces the moment.But then she shivered by her self and back to her sense.


    "No, TianTian! No, be strong...don''t lose to the lust...you are not pervert like him!!"


    Still have a few days before her menstruation period ended, TanTan needed to tame the beast quicker so she could protect her dignity and also her virginity.

 15 A Dinner with the Beast 1

    *A present


    Although her eyes are closed, TianTian can feel her hand is touched warmly by someone.The voice is so softly talks to her,


    "When will you wake up, my sleeping beauty? I miss you so much.Please wake up soon...I believe you will wake up someday.."


    TianTian also can feel the man stays closer to her, so close that he kisses her forehead gently.TianTian can smell the aroma from his body, its smelled like the traditional medicine incenses, which is familiar for TianTian.She wonders when she ever smells it.She tried so hard to think about it, but her mind just becomes wandering thinking about other things, about her family, the dinner and the photo at that day.


    *In the past,


    After be left by the King, TianTian just sit on LiMingHu''s chair behind the desk. She thought if the beast had meeting, it mustbe took around one or two hours to finish? The point was she had her free time to explore this office,


    "Maybe I can find anything that I can use to deal with that beast later?"


    So she started by searching on the king''s table.There were not too many things on the desk, just some documents of works, TianTian sees them a little.When she looks the document and photos that just now LiMingHu shown to her, she took WenWen''s photo and felt regret for not contacting her yet.She promised in her heart, later she must find the way to meet WenWen and explained everything to her. Then she closed the documents, nothing special about other documents, they just contains reports and numbers which TianTian didn''t too expert about it.


    She moves to the drawers. There were 4 drawers and three of them are locked, ''LiMingHu is not stupid, of course he locks the drawer'' TianTian felt dumb for herself.But still she checks all drawer, including the last drawers, which happened unlock.TianTian startled before but then she pulled it and there was nothing inside except an old photo.


    TianTian took the photo to observe it more but suddenly a knock coming from out,TianTian immediately took the photo and closed the drawer, then she sat again on sofa, pretending never stand up from there, she answered,


    "Come in.."


    Miss Yang entered the room with a food tray.She put it in front of TianTian, and offered it politely,


    "Please enjoy it Miss TianTian, these food are special ordered from 5 star Li Hotel....made by the head of chef there"


    TianTian widened her eyes, ''A tiramisu cake and mint chamomile tea, her favourite food that she often ordered it everytime she went to a cafe. How could that beast know?'' It was a rhetorical question coz TianTian realized the king could do it easily.


    Miss Yang seems waiting for the responds,


    "Miss TianTian, is anything lack?"


    "Oh..no..thanks, its good..."


    "Well ,if that so please enjoy it till President Li comes back from the meeting.I''ll be outside if you need anything else." Miss Yang excused herself politely and walked to the door, before sudden TianTian called her to ask,


    "Aah, Miss Yang..may I ask you a question?"


    "Please, go ahead"


    "Does President Li...has a little sister? niece? or maybe...a daughter?"


    The question startled Miss Yang a little bit, but she managed to stay polite and answered,


    "President Li doesn''t have a sister or any siblings so he also doesn''t have any niece.And about a daughter,...as far I know, he doesn''t have any daughter."


    Miss Yang looked curiously to TianTian, she wanted to know why TianTian asked that such question but she knew it was none of her business, beside she still had many job to do, so she want to excuse herself,


    "Is there anything you want to ask?"


    "No...no...thank you. eh, Miss Yang?" TianTian hoped she didn''t misspelling the name tag on Miss Yang''s cloth.


    Miss Yang smiled as her name was mentioned, she glad TianTian considered to know her name.


    "Well then, excuse me" Miss Yang then got out from the room.


    While TianTian took off the photo and looked to the photo carefully.It was a photo of a little girl, in beach dress and wearing a wide beach hat.Her face looked pretty with a big smile on face and her brown long hair.Her age was around 10-12 years.


    TianTian seemed puzzled,


    ''Who is this girl? Is she someone important to LiMingHu or nobody? Well...better than nothing...'' TianTian took her smartphone to take a picture of that photo, in case she needed it one day.Her instinct was telling her that the little girl might important.TianTian turned on her smartphone and took a snapshot.After that, she realized that so many messages and voice messages came since yesterday.All sent from her family.TianTian heard all the messages,all were telling her to go home and asking that she was not serious to leave the family,


    "Just...come back TianTian okay?"


    that''s the end of the message and it made TianTian couldn''t hold her tears,


    "I am sorry, Mom...Dad...brothers..."


    She wiped her tears and encourage her self,


    ''I hope I didn''t do wrong, its for protecting them... Just wait, until I success to tame that beast, or find his weakness...I can be free and go home...''


    She then looked to the food, and decided to eat first as she could hear her stomach being noisy.The food was delicious but TianTian didn''t enjoy it at all, she just eat to fill her energy so she can deal with LiMingHu later.


    Meanwhile in the meeting room, everyone in the room can see the King was in a very good mood.YuFang as the vice of CEO in the Li company delivered the report and felt odd also for the king didn''t give any sharp comment like usual yet, although there was not too much progressing in the profit growth of Li Company.LiMingHu looked so calm and it puzzled the investors, especially because not allmembers were present in the room.There was a blank chair among the investors.Remembering the chair was belong to the most strongest rival of LiMingHu, Philip Huang to take control of Li Company.The seat had been empty for many times.And Usually his absent was one of the reason that irritated LiMingHu.


    In the next minute YuFan had finished delivering the report, and sudden the door was opened by a tall charming man, whose hair as bright as the colour of sun.He gave a big smile and just barged in the room with confident, he then sat on the empty chair.


    "I''m so sorry for my late...I just landed directly from Paris,....and i got bad traffic on the way to be here, what an exhausting right? Long time not see everyone....how are you all?"


    Everyone smiled nervously to Philip Huang and then looked to LiMingHu, to see his reaction, which usually cannot be a good one.But LiMingHu seemed stay calm, he greeted the man politely.


    "We are glad you can manage to be here,Mr Huang...it has been 6 months finally we can see you join in this meeting..."


    The man who be known by all as Philip Huang squinted his eyes to LiMingHu but then he continued,


    "That''s right...Oyeah, do you know on the way, I also saw some of Li company''s banner has been cleaned off from some regular places.Its too bad right, can''t you do anything about it, I like the banners so much, you know?"


    Although Philip Huang asked it lightly ,like in joke. But everyone can see the main purpose of the question.He tried to point out of the incompetent LiMingHu as the president of Li Company.


    LiMingHu stared sharply to him, and he gestured to YuFang, letting him to answer Philip Huang,


    "Don''t worry, Mr Huang. The banners are taken off to be replaced the new banner, new image of Li Company''s new product"


    Philip Huang gave a force laughing and looked to others.


    "Ohh ,is that so? Wow, we can''t wait to see it right, it must be better than the old banners!...ok, now what else that I miss?"


    LiMingHu smirked, he stood up,


    "I am afraid the meeting just finished.But don''t worry, you will get the update information like usual, Mr Huang"He then instructed YuFang, and went directly to the door to left the room.


    YuFang then announced properly that the meeting was really over. The investors, little by little were leaving the room, leaving Philip Huang who looked humiliated coz he felt LiMingHu purposely dismissed the meeting just when he arrived.YuFang approached Philip Huang and gave the copy of the meeting reports which Philip Huang took it harshly.When YuFang also excused himself and out of the room.Philip Huang stared out of the room and talked to himself,


    "LiMingHu, just wait...I am back to destroy your arrogant and kick you out from this company soon!"


    In the way, YuFang managed to reach LiMingHu in the private lift.LiMingHu used this chance to talk more private.


    "After half of year, that man just suddenly show up...YuFang, what did you know about it?"


    "I am afraid not, President Li.As far I know in Paris, he spent his time to have fun as much as he want, sometimes with the different women. He was also spent a lot of money to buy antique things and clubs"


    "Dig it more deep.I don''t like his sudden present...he might hiding something..."


    "Yes, President Li, then I''ll continue my job"


    Right after that the lift had delivered them in front of LiMingHu''s office.LiMingHu went out from the lift alone, while YuFang closed the lift to go to another floor.


    Miss Yang immediately welcomed LiMingHu politely,


    "Welcome back, President Li"


    "How is she?" LiMingHu stopped his step before he entered the room.


    "She is enjoying the cake and tea inside"


    LiMingHu smiled to hear it,


    "Is the dinner ready for tonight?"


    "Yes, President Li, I had reserved a whole restaurant in Li Hotel and make the preparation as your order."


    "Very good" Miss Yang was happy to listen for it was seldom to hear his boss'' compliment.She opened the door for LiMingHu and after the king entered the room.Miss Yang closed the door gently.

 16 A Dinner with the Beast 2

    In the room, LiMingHu found out that TianTian had taking a nap on the sofa. He walked closer but without any sound.Then he saw there was a little piece of cake on TianTian''s lip.He touched the lip with his thumb to remove the piece, but it awaken TianTian, she startled and woke up immediately, her face turns red...


    "You...you has return..."


    LiMingHu pleased to see TianTian''s reaction, he then purposely ate the cake piece on his thumb, but he looks intensely to TianTian,


    "Hm...so sweet"


    TianTian tried to cover her shy and try to divert his attention,


    "Now what do you want me to do? Do I still need to wait here for you all the day? You make me die from boring here!"


    The King closely looked at her face and said,


    "Without my permission, you even cannot die leaving me, TianTian.Come on..." He pulled TianTian''s hand again, out from his office.They entered the lift.


    In the lift, TanTan dared herself to complaint,


    "Where are we going now? Can you please just tell me before you drag me?"


    "Well, I don''t want to ruin the surprise..." LiMingHu smiled teasing her,


    "Surprise?" TianTian wondered in scare, will be this one of his crazy surprise type? Since they met, TianTian felt she had enough to get unpleasing surprises in her life.But she decided not to fight yet, she just obediently entered the car with the king.


    And after a few minutes, they arrives at the Li hotel again.But this time the King took her to a boutique in the hotel, the manager and other staff in the boutique greets the king politely,


    "Change her now!" LiMingHu''s command was immediately be done by the staff.They guided TianTian to the change room and then helped her to change her cloth, make up and put some accessories, TianTian realizes on her neck was being put the same necklace like before.It reminded her what happened to that night, when the king jealousy angered to her coz of meeting her brother.TianTian touches the necklace nervously and gulped,


    ''What is his plan this time? Changing me into a doll like this? Is he asking me to accompany him again to some event?''


    When TianTian was ready, she looked to her own reflection in the mirror.Once again she became so pretty in her blue short dress this time and simple hair ties.


    "The lady is ready, Sir" announced the worker to LiMingHu, while giving a way for TianTian to walk out from changing room.


    LiMingHu was stunned,


    ''This is the girl that I want so much...she is so astonishing and adorable...''


    LiMingHu smiled, he offers his hand to TianTian,


    "Shall we?"


    TianTian had a little bit doubt, but she finally took LiMingHu''s hand.In her mind, she was ensuring herself to cooperate with the beast to find out his weakness.


    Then both of them moved to other floor, which was the 5 stars restaurant of Li Hotel, ''Star Li Restaurant''; where is known as a luxury and high-class restaurant in the city.TianTian felt amazed with the atmosphere of the restaurant.But what surprised her most that it was empty, no other customers at all.All restaurant servants welcomed LiMingHu as the only customer for that night.


    "Please this way, Sir..."


    The waiter lead them to the most vip table, where they can see a view of city night from 500th floor in the wall glass beside their table.


    ''This is crazy, he ordered one entire expensive restaurant just to have dinner with me?''


    TianTian can''t stop herself to feels flattered about it.But again she reminded herself to have self control.She, TianTian was not a materialistic woman. ''The beast is showing off his wealth, I won''t easily moved by that.''


    LiMingHu was enjoying TianTian''s changing looks, he could clearly saw what was struggling in her mind.


    "So do you like this place?"


    "Its...fine..." TianTian actually want to scream, ''Its too much.. you wasting too much money, which could be used to feed the needy out of the street!!!''


    "Hm...you act nice tonight.That kind a weird...Are you finally giving up to me?"


    The King teased her, TianTian stared fiercely to him,


    "No...I am not, I just wanna to make a peace with you for awhile..."


    "Oh ,is that so? Well, it is better if we can eat in peace...but somehow I miss your fierce acts" LiMingHu smirked, and gestures to the waiters to serve the food.


    When the food has come, TianTian once again keep reminding her to control herself coz she was now almost drooled seeing the delicious steak which served in her plate.


    "Now enjoy the food..." LiMingHu started to cut the steak and eat,


    TianTian didn''t wait any longer to eat also.In a few minutes, her plate became empty completely and also with another dishes.LiMingHu seemed glad to see TianTian enjoying her food.After all food had been served, LiMingHu gestured the servant to pour the red wine.


    "This is Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru 2012, a sumptuous cornucopia of flowers, gentle and delicate with silky tannins..." The servant who is actually a sommelier was giving the explanation of the wine.TianTian couldn''t understand it at all, but what she knew that the red wine must be so expensive...


    When the sommelier left them, LiMingHu raised the wine glass to have a toast with TianTian''s glass.


    "Cheers for a peaceful dinner"


    TianTian felt the same.The dinner was not too bad, although the King didn''t say anything during the meal, but somehow she felt quite comfort and unexpected enjoying the meal.So she raised her glass too, but before they finish the toast, a loud voice sounded from outside of the restaurant.Someone seemed barged in and complained,


    "What do you mean, you can''t accept another guest tonight! Don''t you know who I am!! Beside who is so dared reserved entire of my favourite restaurant tonight Hah!! I wanna to see the person by myself.."


    What a shock when LiMingHu and TiantIan saw who came.It was Philip Huang, and he was accompanied by WenWen.Four of them clearly surprised to see each others.


    "WenWen..." TianTian called her name but WenWen threw her face to other side and gesturing that she was really really upset


    While Philip Huang obviously was unpleasing to see LiMingHu the one who reserved entire restaurant.


    "So...its our President Li! No wonder they won''t let me in....but as the owner of this hotel, should you dominate the entire restaurant for yourself??? I am afraid it won''t good for the business later..."


    Philip Huang clearly mocked him.But LiMingHu didn''t give a lot of respond, he just stayed sit calmly and answered,


    "Well, Mr Huang...like you said, I am the owner of this hotel, so I think I have right to use this restaurant for my benefit also."


    "Come on Mr Li...as one of your biggest investor, you must safe my face.I had promised to Ms WenWen here, to celebrate her being chosen as new company face by giving her splendid dinner here...Don''t I do this for the company also...?!"


    LiMingHu held TianTian suddenly,


    "I am sorry but today is also special for me and my woman...You see my woman is too shy.She can''t have dinner with someone else except with me only... Beside I believe you have another better place for your date like usual" He smirkedto Mr Philip and WenWen.


    WenWen felt embarrassed to be found out by LiMingHu that she became Mr Phillip Huang''s date, and mostly felt so jealous to see TianTian here having a luxury date with her dream man.


    "You...!" Phillip Huang didn''t want to give up, he came closer and glanced to TianTian, he startled for he never saw this woman before around LiMingHu..


    ''So...this is his new girlfriend...who is she I wonder...?''


    TianTian was silent but actually she has many things to say to WenWen, she just didn''t know how to start it.


    WenWen seems couldn''t stand there any longer, she speaks to Philip Huang with a shivering voice,


    "Mr Philip,...I don''t mind if we change the place...suddenly I don''t have any mood to eat here anymore"


    "Ah...well ,if that so...I won''t bother you anyrmore, President Li...Enjoy your date.."


    WenWen turned her back from TianTian and ready to walk but TianTian suddenly stopped her,


    "Wait...WenWen...I want to speak with you..." She grabbed WenWen''s wrist,


    "There is nothing to talk!...you traitor!!!" WenWen angrily took off her hand harshy, and it pushed back TianTian strongly back to the table, caused the wine bottle fell down and broke.


    LiiMingHu with instinct, stood up and checked TianTian''s condition.


    "Are you okay?" He held TianTian shoulders, TianTian shook gesturing she was fine.Then LiMingHu put his arm around TianTian''s waist, makes her closer to him and stared angrily to WenWen,


    "What do you think you are doing to my woman, Ms WenWen?"


    TianTian tried to release herself from LiMingHu''s hug, she really didn''t want to show the intimate between her and LiMingHu, especially in front of WenWen.


    "Let go...No, WenWen, this is not like what you see..." But LiMingHu gestured her to silent by putting his finger on her lip.


    "Sst...silent"


    WenWen was burst in her jealousy.For her, TianTian looked like showing her affection toward LiMingHu purposely.She wanted to scream and yell to TianTian, but she only could controlled herself and pressed her anger inside her.


    ''I hate you, TianTian...I really do''. TianTian shocked seeing WenWen''s look that clearly spoke out her mind.


    Philip Huang observed what happened,


    ''LiMingHu''s treatment to this woman seems different than to other woman. And it seems Ms WenWen knows more about this woman too. This is getting interesting'' He smiles,


    "Please forgive Ms WenWen.I can see she is a little upset for not able to dinner here and accidently pushed this lady.Come, Ms WenWen.Let me take you to other restaurant which as good as this restaurant, or maybe better one..."


    Philip Huang held her shoulders and took WenWen out from the restaurant.


    WenWen didn''t say anything, she just followed Philip Huang quietly.


    After they gone, LiMingHu released TianTian, who immediately want to chase WenWen.But LiMingHu grabbed her hand, not letting her go,


    "Where are you going? Our dinner is not finish yet..."


    "I want to speak to WenWen..."


    LiMingHu pushes her closer again to his body and his left hand hugged her waist tightly while his right hand held TianTian''s left hand.Their position was like they were ready to have waltz dance, the music was really playing at the moment and LiMingHu whispers to her,


    "It seems WenWen is not worthy to become your friend...now didn''t you regret to choose her as your bet before?''


    "I am not regret! She is my best friend...She just angry because of..."


    ''Ba-dum!''


    TianTian looks at LiMingHu and startled that his face was so close to her, his eyes stared to her intensely.


    ''Ba-dum!"


    Suddenly she forgot what she wanted to say.In that moment, when the music kept playing, LiMingHu slowly moves their body in one rhythm.


    ''Ba-dum...ba-dum..ba-dum!"


    TianTian''s heart gave a fast beats, her face became red till her ears.The atmosphere was giving romantic aura till TianTian felt drawn to the moment.


    While their body still moving in one rhythm, slowly the king kissed TianTian''s forehead gently.TianTian didn''t fight back, she was liked being witched by the moment. It gave the courage for the king to keep kissing her eyes, her nose and then her lips.


    At that night, for the first time TianTian giving her lips to be embraced by LiMingHu without any fighting back. She responds so lively to every touching of LiMingHu''s lips... But when LiMingHu started to put his tongue inside TianTian''s mouth and his hand started to caress her back passionately, made TianTian awoke from the lust.She pushes back LiMingHu suddenly,


    "Nooo!" TianTian widened her eyes, shocked to see herself so easily moved by his touching, and she even enjoyed it... She turned back from LiMingHu, hugged herself in terrified.She looked to the glass wall but not really seeing the view, she still in shock and confusedly with herself,


    ''Since when she becomes so weak...and easily attracted to this beast?''


    Seeing TianTian being nervous like that, LiMingHu hugged her from the back, he kissed her neck gently, and whispered,


    "Please...don''t be afraid of me... I really like you, TianTian...I want you so badly."


    "...I am so tired...Can we just go home now.." said TianTian nervously, LiMingHu could felt her body also shivered, so he let go his hug.


    "Fine...let''s go home now." He held TianTian''s hand and never let it go either when they walked out of the hotel or in the car, during the journey to back home.TianTian didn''t reject it at all.He escorted TianTian until her room and kissed TianTian''s forehead again, saying


    "Good night" and then he back to his own room.


    In her room, TianTian sat on her bed, holding her self.She was so confused and terrified, ''Is it maybe actually she has been captured by the beast charisma all these time without she realized it?Then can she really freed from this beast...or the real question is does she want to be freed later?''

 17 WenWens Anger

    Out of the Li Hotel, WenWen still silent in her anger, she entered the car with Phillip Huang.


    In the car, Phillip Huang tried to request some replacing place for their dinner...


    "Shall we go to....restaurant or....there?" But during the road, WenWen actually didn''t responding Phillip Huang too much. She was busy with her mind that full of anger to TianTian,


    "How come...how come.....how come.....HOW COME!!! She clearly knows that I like LiMingHu but there she was, being held by LiMingHu... TianTian,.she is really stabbed my back!!! My best friend does that!!!" Tears started to flow from her eyes.


    Phillip Huang noticed it and gave a handkerchief to her, it made WenWen finally pay attention to him,


    "Thanks Mr Phillip" WenWen carefully wiped her tears without destroying her make up.


    "So...I see you know that woman who with LiMingHu, do you know her closely? Is she your friend?" asked Phillip Huang curiously,


    "NO! She is not my friend anymore!"


    There was a cold tone in WenWen''s voice, fit with her anger look.


    ''Wow! Scary...an anger woman is indeed scary...'' Phillip Huang saw this was an opportunity to attack LiMingHu''s weakness.


    "She is really make you angry hah!"


    Philip Huang purposely hold WenWen''s hand."Its really a bad night, why don''t we have a drink to forget these unpleasing moment?"


    WenWen nodded her head, yeah, why not? She really need to drink a lot tonight to throw out all her anger...


    Not too long, Phillip Huang had taken WenWen to a night club, he reserved a private room and then letting WenWen drink a lot until drunk...


    At that moment, Phillip Huang digged all information about TianTian from WenWen,


    ''Hm...so this TianTian just an ordinary girl?! I can''t imagine that king can be influenced by an ordinary girl? so funny...Hah!"


    "Can you imagine, my best friend...has betray meee!!!"


    "Yes yes...its very cruel...you much much more beautiful than her..." Phillip Huang smirked evilly,


    "Then if I say I can get your revenge...what do you want to do about this TianTian??"


    WenWen was not in her straight mind, she was so filled by anger, so she answered


    "I want her to disappear...kill her, vanish her...do anything you want to do to her...I don''t care...I just want TianTian to disappear from this world!!!"


    "Really...and what do I get if I can grant your wish?"


    WenWen looked to Phillip Huang and giggled unconsciously, she touched his nose with her fingers.


    "I''ll give you...handsome...myself..."


    "Then I want to have a payment first..."


    Phillip Huang didn''t wait any longer to kiss WenWen passionately, opened her dress and started to caress WenWen''s body to make love completely with her.


    The next morning, WenWen woke up with a very bad hangover.But she then realized that she was naked, covered by blanket on the bed in a hotel.


    She recited what happened last night, and felt shameful by herself.A shower sound indicated the man she slept with was still in the room.The door of bathroom opened and Phillip Huang came out by half of his below body parts covered with a towel only.He then approached WenWen who still unbelieving what had happened, and he kissed her cheek, her neck and said in teasing voice,


    "Good morning beauty...last night was great! You are so delicious...do you want to do it again?" Phillip Huang seems rosing his lust once again, he started to kiss and kiss and kiss...


    "Wait...wait...No..." WenWen tried to reject the touchings, but failed for Phillip was stronger, he had pushed WenWen laying back on the bed and he was be on her top...


    "Sst, don''t fight, woman...don''t you said last night that you want to take revenge to your friend TianTian?"


    "Revenge...I..yes...I want but..."


    "Then from now, you must follow my words and do what I say...ok, now just be an obedient girl...and lets enjoy it together..." Without waiting forWenWen''s answer, Phillip Huang once again kissed WenWen passionately and fondled her both peaks, giving a high pleasure that WenWen couldn''t reject.


    "hmm...mmm...aah...aaah..."


    And so they spent all morning passionately in the hotel.

 18 Loving a Beast?

    That night, after TanTan returned from the dinner with LiMingHu, she had a dream.In her dream, TianTian felt like she saw a cartoon movie, there was a princess who be caught by a beast in a castle.Princess'' brothers were trying to save her but failed.The princess'' best friend tried to offer herself, replacing the captured princess but be rejected by the beast.Finally the princess fed up and tried to escape by herself, but only to be caught again by the beast.At the end all citizens of the kingdom wanted to kill the beast but the princess unexpected protected and save the beast.


    She awoke until that part, reciting the dream she had just now made she giggled herself coz suddenly it reminded her to a similar cartoon movie that XiaoAi, her student always told her about, ''What a weird dream...."


    Then she went down from her bed and prepared herself with taking shower.In the shower, there is a mirror where TianTian could see her reflection.''Have I change?'' She shook her head and then finished her shower.


    When she descended down the stair, she didn''t see the beast everywhere, its odd


    a little bit.TianTian met Aunt Ma, then she asked about the beast,


    "Aunt Ma, where is..the...President Li?"


    TianTian almost said ''the beast'', but Aunt Ma didn''t notice it, she just answered her politely,


    "President Li already go to work, he tells me to let you rest at home today" Aunt Ma explained.


    ''Hm...not taking me again? What a weird moody that beast...well, its better than I must bore waiting him like yesterday...''


    TianTian then looked to Aunt Ma and asked again,


    "I am hungry, is there any food ready to eat, Aunt Ma?"


    "Sure, Miss TianTian.I''ll prepare a breakfast for you..."


    Then later at the eating room, TianTian enjoyed her simple meal, be accompanied by Aunt Ma.While eating, TianTian kept busy with her mind, reciting what happened yesterday ,with WenWen...with the beast...


    ''Last night, I finally can meet WenWen ,but the situation was so bad...how can I meet her again to clarify all these? That I and that beast have... nothing?'' TianTian touched her lip with the spoon she hold, the last sentence in her mind was spoken unsure...''nothing''? the passion that she felt last night? And the beast...he somehow became so gentle in kissing and touching her.She recited the passionate moment she had with the beast last night,


    ''I...want to kiss him again...''


    That thought sudden occured and shocked TianTian. She felt shameful with that thought till it made her face red as a tomato.Aunt Ma who looked at her, felt worry...


    "Are you okay, Miss TianTian.Your face seems reddish, do you have fever?"


    "No...no...I am fine Aunt Ma...'' She immediately finished her meal to proof that she was fine.She even almost chocked a little bit and coughing,


    "Just slow down, Miss TianTian.No one rushes you here.." Aunt Ma smiled seeing a childish act of TianTian.


    After drinking a water, TianTian looked around the house and realized how big it was but felt empty.


    "This house is too big but empty..." She spoke her mind...


    While Aunt Ma cleaned her empty dish, she responded,


    "Its not always empty like this... 20 years ago this house full of happiness when President Li''s parent still alive.They were a lovely couple, so fond to each other and little Master Li was a very sweet cheerful boy...."


    TianTian widened her eyes hearing that,


    ''Cannot imagine that beast ever became a sweet cheerful boy!''


    "Then what happened?" she asked,


    Aunt Ma sighed and gave her sad look,


    "*Sigh....The car accident...they three went to celebrate little Master Li''s birthday but their car had problems... only little Master Li survived from that accident....it changed everything... it changed him and changed the happiness atmosphere of this house..."


    TianTian was speechless, she couldn''t imagine a ten years boy lost his parents like that and got such a big trauma.


    ''No wonder he turns become this cold and selfish beast...''


    Aunt Ma observed TianTian''s face and smiled sadly.She even grabbed TianTian''s hands like begging to her.


    "Miss TianTian...I know maybe I am not deserved to say this but I have been watching you and President Li lately.I know you are a kind woman, different than other gold diggers out there and President Li seems so peaceful and happy when he with you... so please always be his side, help him to get out from his sorrow..."


    "Aunt Ma...?"


    Aunt Ma looked so concern, TianTian even could almost see tears coming out from Aunt Ma''s eyes.


    When another servant came,Aunt Ma felt shy to cry, she let go TianTian''s hands and then continued to clear the dishes.


    "Just...please don''t give up on him!" Aunt Ma said before she went out to the kitchen.


    The concern of Aunt Ma touched TianTian''s heart, ''If Aunt Ma can concern about him that much,...maybe...that beast is not really bad after all....''


    Now that she was already full, she didn''t plan to stay at home all day.Especially she wanted to meet WenWen if possible.So she reached her smartphone, tried to call WenWen.


    What a surprise that she heard a man voice answered her,


    "Hello, Miss TianTian"


    "Who is this?" TanTan asked curiously, ''a man picks WenWen''s smartphone in the morning, is it her lover?''


    "We have met last night.This is Phillip Huang, I am afraid that Ms WenWen is not able to pick up the phone...she is...still sleeping."


    "Oh...I see..." TianTian really could see their relationship was not simple.


    "Ok, maybe I will call her back later...thank..."


    But Phillip Huang interrupted her words,


    "Wait...Ms TianTian. I don''t think she want to answer your call even though she has awake later..."


    "..." How far this man knew her problem with WenWen?


    "But I might can help you to meet WenWen...so how if we meet for a while at lunch later?"


    ''Lunch?'' TianTian remembered that this man, Philip Huang had a rivalry relationship with LiMingHu, ''It it wise to meet him?''


    Feeling the unspoken hesitated from TianTian, Phillip Huang continued to persuade her,


    "...I''ll speak to WenWen so she willing to meet you later..."


    This might be a good chance to her to clear things with WenWen.So she agreed,


    "Okay, tell me the time and the place...I''ll be there"


    "Good, let''s meet in The Grand Restaurant at lunch time..."


    "Ok!" *click, TianTian hanged up her smartphone.


    "Now, still have time till lunch, maybe I can make something sweet for WenWen" She recited in the past, everytime WenWen in bad mood, her sweet home-made cake could soften her mood easily.

 19 Beasts Memory

    At the 100th floor of Li Building, YuFang watched the rare expression of the King.LiMingHu seemed more peaceful than usual but not in his high mood.There was a sadness look whenever he has a thinking.Although he was still focus to read all documents today but YuFang knew that his mind was not there and definitely he was not thinking about what were written in the documents.


    Yes, the King slash, the beast slash, LiMingHu was thinking about his lovely rabbit.


    ''Last night, her responds was a little bit different...has she open her heart to him yet?''


    While YuFang was the one who patiently waiting LiMingHu to finish checking and signing all documents he needed today.


    Suddenly LiMingHu asked him,


    "YuFang...you ever said that treating the animals softly can make them close and fond to you, but why my little rabbit still scare to me?"


    YuFang knew exactly who was the little rabbit LiMingHu mentioned, he just irritated that they must discussed about it in busy hours like this but he still answered him politely,


    "It needs a patience to make them closer to you...just treat them gently then don''t worry, quickly or not the rabbit will be yours"


    LiMingHu actually already knew that answer, he just felt to be confirmed about his actions. Coz in his mind, there was a struggle,


    "I want to kiss her again...but no...I must be patience...or she will run away again...''


    Finally LiMingHu had signed the last document YuFang needed so the white fox just took them right away and ready to excuse himself.But before he left, he felt needed to remind him,


    "Please don''t forget that you have an important lunch later with ''Him''!"


    "I know"


    YuFang left the room.A reminder just now makes LiMingHu took a pause for a while, he laid down his back and sighed.


    Then he opened the last drawer and took out the photo, the one with a little girl inside.He stared on that photo, reminisced the little girl in that photo...


    "Brother Li...don''t be sad...I''ll stay with you...I won''t leave you..." He remembered that little voice ever said that.It was the day of his parents funeral.The death of his parents had changed everything.When he was a child, he accidentally heard some business partners of his parents speaking to each other, their conversation indicated that the accidents couldn''t be a coincidence, someone did it purposely to destroy Li Company.Since that, LiMingHu made a promise to himself...that he would be strong and just kept focus to find who killed his parents.That''s the day the cold beast born in his heart.He closed his heart to everyone but there was someone who innocently kept trying to enter, it was ShuLian, the girl in the photo.Unfortunately it''s ended badly... An accident that made ShuLian couldn''t be with him anymore, and LiMingHu knew he was the main cause of it.


    LiMingHu closed his eyes, sticking the edges of the photo to his forehead, like a praying gesture, he whispered,


    "I owned you a lot...XiaoShu..."


    Suddenly his phone was ringing, a message came.He checked it, it came from home, from Ali, the bodyguard.His eyes be wrinkled as he read the message,


    ''Meeting WenWen at lunch?''


    The king pushed the button to call his secretary by phone.


    *click


    "Yes, President Li?"


    "Check for me the schedule of WenWen, our new product model"


    "Ok, President Li. Please wait for a moment"


    *click


    While waiting, LiMingHu started to think ''why this rabbit so fool? caring about someone who doesn''t return any goodness to her! But maybe that''s what so attracting from her'' He smiled for himself.

 20 The Grand Restaurant 1

    A luxury black car arrived at the Grand Restaurant.TianTian came out with her simple blue dress.Before she came out, she told Ali who drive her there to wait outside the restaurant.


    "Maybe I can be long inside...just enjoy your day around, Ali...don''t wait for me...I''ll is fine". TianTian knew that Ali is faithful for his job as a bodyguard but she still uncomfortable to be followed everywhere.


    "I''ll wait at outside restaurant, Ms. TianTian.I''ll ready to come whenever you call later." Ali gave his words firmly.


    TianTian just sighed and smiled to him,


    "Ok.."


    When she entered the restaurant, she wonders,


    ''Is this restaurant really just too expensive or just not having good taste?'' Coz she saw there were not too many guests eating lunch there.Among some empty tables, she recognizes a man who also noticed her and gestures her to come.It was Philip Huang, he smiled seeing TianTian walked toward his table, he stood and greeted her politely.


    "It''s nice to meet you again, Ms. TianTian...please, have a seat!"


    TianTian sat and then observed Philip huang.Last night she was only paying attention to WenWen.Now she noticed that Philip Huang had a quite handsome face like an idol, younger than LiMingHu obviously and clearly a metrosexual man with his style of hair, clothes and a diamond earring on his left ear. But somehow TianTian didn''t like his eyes.''Like a liars'' eyes'' But TianTian didn''t want to judge people too early.


    "Where is WenWen?" TianTian just wanted to settle the problem soon.


    "She will be late...coz suddenly she had a job to do, you know the business as a new product model...but don''t worry, she will come so why don''t we eat first while waiting for her..?" Philip Huang tried his angel smile, that usually could melt many women.But it even made TianTian more uncomfortable.


    "It''s fine.I am not eating, thank you.I just come to meet WenWen..."


    "Well, at least let me buy you a drink" Philip Huang didn''t wait for the reply, he called a waitress to come and ordered some drinks, two glasses of juice.


    After the waitress left, Philip Huang gazes back to TianTian,


    "Miss TianTian, there''s something to make me curious since our meeting last time if I may ask ?"


    "What is it, Mr. Phillip?" TianTian wondered.


    "What is your real relationship with President Li?..." Phillip Huang stared on her deeply...


    "Its... it''s complicated..." TianTian herself wasn''t sure what their relationship was.


    "You must be special for him, seeing how he treated you last night...but it must be hard for you to stay with the beast like him right?" Phillip Huang smiled, once again he tried to charm TianTian...


    "It''s not really..." TianTian found it''s hard to answer that question.


    "I heard that you come from a very simple family and then you decided to choose the beast than your own family...you must be like the beast so much or maybe her riches has charming you as well?" As he said, Philip Huang moved his hand closer to TianTian''s hand which holding the glass, till their finger almost touched to each other.


    In reflex, TianTian moved her hands far from Philip Huang''s hands.


    "If WenWen is busy, perhaps I can see her in another time" TianTian followed her instinct to get away.She raised and willing to go, but Philip Huang grabbed her hand,


    "Wait..wait...Why so hurry?"


    "Please let my hand go, Mr. Philip!" TianTian tried to free her hand but the grip was getting stronger, while Mr. Philip Huang seemed didn''t care and looked around, after he managed to see a figure he waited entered the restaurant and noticed their presence, suddenly, Mr. Philip came closer and pulled TianTian''s body closer to him,


    "What are you...let me go" TianTian surprised with the unexpected gestures of Philip Huang...while he whispered to TianTian,


    "Oh come on...stop pretending! How much did he pay to have you? I can pay double...even more, I can offer you anything you want...How ''bout it, not bad right...Just leave that beast and be mine!" and he forced kissed TianTian.


    With all her strength, she wanted to push back him but suddenly a hard fist landed on Philip Huang''s face, it even makes Philip fell down on the floor.


    "BANG!!!"


    TianTian turned to see and shocked to know who was it.LiMingHu with so angry pulled her hand harshly and took her away from the restaurant.


    "Wait...auch, you hurt my hand..."


    TianTian felt pain but the king seemed didn''t care, he didn''t give any response.


    Outside the restaurant, LiMingHu seemed had instructed Ali to prepare the car, as it had ready at the front and He pushed TianTian entered the car harshly.


    Inside the car, LiMingHu ordered Ali to stop driving when they were still in the restaurant''s front field and asked Ali to go out for a while.And then before TianTian could say anything, LiMingHu''s hand had to be around TianTian''s neck, choked her.In a raging tone, he stared on TianTian widely,


    "What are you doing with that son of the b****! Who gives you permission to kiss another man???!!!"


    "I am...ugh...not..." TianTian tried to remove the king''s hands from her neck coz she started hard to speak.


    "TianTian, I warned you that you are mine! Only mine!" The king loosed his hand but then kissed her harshly, TianTian didn''t like that kind of kisses, it rough and hurting...she tried to fight back, as she managed to bite his lips at the end.


    "Auch" The king stopped and a little fresh blood was coming out from his lower lip.He then pushed TianTian away from himself.


    He looks to TianTian who already crying but giving a very offensive look to him.LiMingHu startled as he felt hurt to see TianTian''s face like that, he felt sad but also angry at himself.TianTian was really angry, that she wanted to slap him but LiMingHu caught her hand before it successfully landed on his face.They looked to each other in anger but then LiMingHu released TianTian''s hand and TianTian was also didn''t want to slap him anymore.


    He turned to look at the car window and also with TianTian, she looked to another side of the car window.There was an intense silence between them but not in their minds.


    LiMingHu kept feeling rage, for the first time he felt rage because of a woman.No matter what reason might be, he just couldn''t stand to see TianTian kissing with another man.


    "She is mine...I won''t let anyone have her!!"


    While TianTian felt angry for what the beast just did.He didn''t give her a chance to explain but just giving her a bad treat right away.


    "He is the worst man ever...!!!" TianTian tried to stop her crying by wiping her eyes and also her lips.


    Sudden a smartphone in LiMingHu''s pocket has rung.He looked to the id caller and his face suddenly shown a little bit of worry.He picked it up and answered carefully.


    "Yes? I am sorry...I had something to do just now..." He glanced to TianTian, but then back to his phone, "No...its nothing...I''ll be there in a minute" The phone call was off and the king went out from the car.He ordered Ali to drive TianTian home while he returned to the restaurant.

 21 The Grand Restaurant 2

    LiMingHu entered the restaurant and Philip Huang was still there, sitting and he surprised to see the beast back. He laughed sarcastically to him,


    "What makes you come here? To beat me again? I still not suing you yet for the assault in public!!"


    Although LiMingHu still felt rage and want to beat Philip Huang again he held it as best as he could.He just passed him by like nothing and it pissed Philip Huang,


    "Stop right there or I will..."


    "What will you do?" A calm but cold voice from his back which startled him coz Philip Huang knew well the voice.He turned in fear,


    "Grand...Grandpa, what are you doing here?" Philip Huang''s grandpa or also be known as Uncle Sam by TianTian before stared sharply to Philip in his wheelchair,he came accompanied by his secretary lady.


    "The right question is what are you doing here?!"


    President HuangLuiSam is the person who Philip Huang scare the most for he is the head of Huang Family, the most wealthy and powerful man.Making him angry can make Philip Huang lost his inheritance right later.


    ''S***, I know that LiMingHu has a meeting here, but I never thought that he is meeting Grandpa...''


    "It''s nothing, Grandpa...I just finished my lunch..."


    "Well, then?" President Sam still looked at him.


    "I...I am leaving now...." Philip Huang bows politely and then leave the restaurant immediately.In his mind, he still wondering what kind of meeting LiMingHu has with his grandpa?


    ''I must find out it soon...''


    After Philip Huang went, LiMingHu politely greeted President Sam and his secretary.By raising his hand, the secretary lady understood and left both them alone.


    "Please forgive my stupid grandson, Ming Er if he did anything make you unpleased"


    "It''s fine..." LiMingHu answered shortly. LiMingHu called the servant to come and ordered food for President Sam while he just ordered a cup of coffee.


    "Not having the appetite I see, huh?" asked President Sam.LiMingHu didn''t answer it, he just smiled in cold.President Sam observed the lips and continue saying,


    "Is it because of that small bitten wound?"


    He showed the wound position by gesturing his finger to his own mouth.


    LiMingHu touched his lips,


    "It just a small wound...I got it accidentally"


    "What happened? Is it bitten by a wild cat?" President Sam said in a teasing tone, but his eyes weren''t teasing him but glanced to him sharply.


    "..." LiMingHu doesn''t have any mood to answer it. He just drinks.


    "It''s nothing..."


    President Sam stares sadly to LiMingHu,


    "Playing with a sweet cat is always a pleasure...but don''t take it too seriously you might hurt by that sweet cat..."


    LiMingHu stares back to President Sam,


    "I''ll keep those words in my mind"


    President Sam takes a sip and smiles to him,


    "I know you won''t disappointing this old man...and my beloved ShuShu..."


    Hearing the name made LiMingHu felt guilty as usual,


    "How...is ShuShu?" he asked softly.


    "She is fine....you know, she is so stubborn...still resting as long as she wants..." President Sam chuckled although his eyes didn''t laugh.


    "You don''t come visiting her lately..."Find the right time to come and visit her, she will happy to see you..."


    "I will..."


    The food was served, the simple dishes shows that despite his great position, President Sam''s appetite is as humble as commoners.


    "Let''s talk about other things...how about your works lately...?"


    and their conversation turned to be business talk.Not many people know President Sam is the power behind the great Li Company.After his parents passed away, President Sam had helped LiMingHu to gain his position till right now.He could be described as LiMingHu''s savior for what he has now.President Sam is also the old friend of LiMingHu''s grandmother.


    While TianTian who arrived at Li Mansion, immediately go to her room, ignoring Aunt Ma who confused with the view but she somehow could guessed something bad must be happened.She decided to make some warm alcoholic drink to calm TianTian.


    In the room, TianTian couldn''t hold her tears again, despite felt sad, she more felt angry to herself, why she was so weak? Letting him did anything he wanted to her.LiMingHu''s anger reminded her that he was indeed a beast, treating her like his belongings...she must leave him before too late...


    Minutes later Aunt Ma came delivers the warm tea.Touching with Aunt Ma''s kindness, TianTian threw her upset feeling to Aunt Ma,


    "Aunt Ma...help me..I want to leave here...I don''t want to be here anymore..."


    Aunt Ma knew she couldn''t do that, so she just hugged TianTian like a mother calms her daughter,


    "Sst...don''t think about it right now...you can''t leave in this condition...calm down, you need to be strong first..."


    Aunt Ma took the cup and served it to TianTian,


    "Now just drink and sleep..everything will be better when you wake up...."


    TianTian obeyed, she was also tired...she drank and tried to sleep... Aunt Ma put the blanket on her, and keep watched her till TianTian really fell asleep, patted her shoulders gently.


    "Poor girl...Young Master must be rough to her, he shouldn''t do that...both of you are too pity..."


    At evening, LiMingHu returned.He asked Aunt Ma where TianTian was.Aunt Ma looks to LiMingHu sadly, boldly she spoke out her mind,


    "Young Master...you should be more gentle to that girl...she is exhausted..."


    LiMingHu surprised a little bit to hear Aunt Ma dared to comment like that.


    He then entered the room where TianTian still felt asleep.But in her sleep, she seemed dreamed and crying in her dream, she even mumbled in her dream,


    "Mom...Dad..."


    LiMingHu moves closer to her, he wipes tears from her face,


    ''Did I do too far?...But you''re the one who make me mad like crazy, little rabbit....What should I do so you won''t run away from me?"


    LiMingHu sighed, he removes his tie and then slowly lays himself beside TianTian, he hugged TianTian and in reflex TianTian turns around and lays on LiMingHu''s chest.LiMingHu hugged her closely and then kissed her forehead, whispers to her softly,


    "Let''s just sleep, little rabbit...I am with you now..so sleep well.."

 22 A Gentle Beas

    In the morning, TianTian opened her eyes.What she saw was the sleeping face of LiMingHu, so close with her.She startled realizing that she was now in LiMingHu''s embrace.She wanted to wake up but she didn''t want to wake himup too.So she slowly moved, she even held her breathe, hoping that the beast stayed sleeping, but it''s failed.LiMingHu opened his eyes and even cuddled her tightly.


    "Let me go..." TianTian tried to free herself.


    "Don''t move!" ordered the beast and TianTian stopped struggling.


    LiMingHu stared on her and move closer, gestured like want to kiss her but TianTian nodded her head to avoid the kiss.LiMingHu realized it, so instead of forcing her, he just kissed her forehead before he released her,


    TianTian didn''t expect to get a gentle morning kiss and after that he released her so she just be stiffed.LiMingHu smiled to see her,


    "Wake up and let''s have breakfast together..."


    He kissed TianTian''s cheek softly again before he went to the bathroom.


    TianTian felt still dreaming...she touched her cheek,


    ''Am I still dreaming? What happened last night? Did we...sleep together?'' Soon her face turned red.The sound of opened bathroom door made her full conscious, LiMingHu came out freshly, half-naked. he smirked to see TianTian still not moving out from the bed.He came back closer to TianTian, whispered to her ear,


    "So...you want to stay on the bed? Its sunday, I can accompany you all day..."


    TianTian sudden felt shamed on her self, she pushed the beast and came down from the bed.


    "No...breakfast!I want to eat breakfast" She immediately run into the bathroom.The way she escaped made LiMingHu laughed a little, ''Really like a panic wild rabbit''


    In the bathroom, TianTian still confused coz she couldn''t remember clearly what happened yesterday.Last time she remembered that LiMingHu almost choked her and forced kissed her roughly because of his mad jealousy but then they separated.She returned and remembered drank something from Aunt Ma, was it something in the drink that made her slept all night? But what troubled her was why LiMingHu slept beside her, even hugged her all night?


    Thinking what happened made TianTian felt dizzy...in fact, she was really felt dizzy and hot..her face turned red and less than a minute she couldn''t stay opened her eyes.


    *BRAKK


    A sound of something heavy felt in the bathroom made LiMingHu immediately force opened the door, he discovered that TianTian fainted on the floor.


    ''...!!!''


    LiMingHu panicked and carried her bodyimmediately on the bed,


    "Little rabbit,....wake up!!!" He patted TianTian''s cheek but TianTian still not responded.


    "AUNT MA!" The shout also made Aunt Ma rushed coming to the room, wondered what panicked her Young Master.Soon she knew why after she saw TianTian''s condition...


    "CALL DOCTOR, RIGHT NOW!!!" LiMingHu commanded in panic.


    Hours later, a family doctor had finished examined TianTian.Doctor Xu who also LiMingHu trusted doctor explained the condition of TianTian,


    "She will be fine...She just has a light fever, due to her exhausted and perhaps a collection of stress.Proper resting and enough nutrients are the best medicine.Just also take care of her mind, don''t make her more stress than she had..."


    Aunt Ma escorted the doctor out while LiMingHu stayed beside TianTian.Reciting what Doctor Xu said, LiMingHu sit beside TianTian and observed her closely.He touched TianTian''s fore hair and speaks softly.Seeing TianTian''s condition like this reminded him to Shushu.


    ''She had stress?...''


    A servant has come back and bring some water and a small towel to reduce the heat of TianTian and to wipe her sweat.But when the servant want to wipe TianTian''s head, the King stopped the servant,


    "Let me.." A servant gave the towel, LiMingHu started to wipe TianTian''s head. He did it with a full care, made the servant startled.When Aunt Ma returned, she was also surprised to see LiMingHu wiped TianTian''s head gently.


    "Young Master, let me do it..."


    But LiMingHu didn''t respond it, he continue doing it and then he just asked back to Aunt Ma,


    "Aunt Ma, what should I do to relieve her stress? Should I buy something luxury for her?"


    "I am not sure Ms TianTian would like it, Young Master... If you allow me to give an advice, perhaps Ms TianTian is having a hard time to be always stay in the house...why don''t you take her a walk and spend more time with her...it will her happy."


    "Just take a walk? Is it enough?"


    "Well, talking gentle to her will helping a lot..."


    "...I see..." LiMingHu seemed take Aunt Ma''s advice seriously.When he wiped Tian Tian''s back palm.He held up the hand and kisses it''s back palm.


    ''Its crazy that I feel willing to do anything to make her mine...''


    At the same time, TianTian slowly opened her eyes.She felt so dizzy but she recognized LiMingHu.TianTian felt surprised to see LiMingHu beside her.


    "What hap...?"


    "Sst...don''t move, just rest..." LiMingHu put his hand on TianTian''s head to keep her laying on the bed and also checked her temperature.He relieved that the medicine from injection had worked very soon.


    As Aunt Tong was also in the room, LiMingHu instructed her immediately to bring breakfast there, to the room.


    TianTian still felt surprised, for the beast treated her so kindly.When Aunt Ma delivered the breakfast, a warm porridge for TianTian easy to eat.LiMingHu stayed and fed her like feeding a child.Not only TianTian but Aunt Ma and other servants outside the room felt surprised with the way their master treated TianTian.


    In her confusion, TianTian just be obedient coz she felt weak to resistand somehow although there were no words between them, TianTian felt oddly warmed with the situation, and so the beast.


    When the porridge is finished, the beast helped TianTian to drink.TianTian stared on him, slowly she said,


    "...thank you..." It felt odd to say, but TianTian knew a good manner so she spoke it in a very soft voice.


    LiMingHu smiled, he surprised how a few regular words could pleased him so much, he held TianTian''s hands and kissed them again gently.Surprisedly, TianTian felt okay with that act.It showed the affection of the beast and she didn''t resist it, her heart beat in other hand started beating faster.


    A ringtone of the King''s smartphone ringing, made TianTian pulled back her hands.Annoyed with the ringing, LiMingHu picked it up with unpleasant tone, especially after seeing the id caller, it was YuFang, the WhiteFox.


    "I told you I don''t want to be bothered today...!!"


    "I know and I am sorry but Mr JiHun, just comes from Korea, he insists to meet you directly or he won''t sign the deal with us..." YuFang reported.


    Mr. JiHun is one of the strong business partner for Li Company who being expected by LiMingHu so long.It''s not a small deal that YuFang can handle it alone and that''s why YuFang dared to disturb the King. As he knew, LiMingHu always priority work even in his day off.But what a surprise when the King answered him,


    "Then tell him, I will meet him tomorrow or no deal at all...and YuFang, I don''t want to be called again today!" and LiMingHu hung up.


    "But...President?" YuFang startled, wondering what on earth can make the King ignore such important meeting...is it because of that little bunny? ah, impossible...no woman in earth is considered more important than business by LiMingHu before.The WhiteFox shook his head, and sighed.However he must handling Mr JiHun first.But before he talked again with Mr JiHun.Surprisedly Philip Huang had shown up and talked friendly with Mr JiHun.YuFang wanted to inform the King but he remembered the order from LiMingHu just now..so he just send the message, and hopefully, the King read it right away coz YuFang could see that Mr Philip Huang tried to take a benefit yo defeat LiMingHu by making a deal with Mr JiHun.


    Back to Li Mansion, catching the conversation she heard, TianTian assumed that LiMingHu just chose to stay at home than go to some important meeting.She didn''t feel too confident but she quite believed that she was the reason LiMingHu stayed.


    "I..am okay now...you don''t need to stay..." she said, hoping that LiMingHu would go back to his business matter.


    LiMingHu turned and looked on her,


    he sudden came closer again to her,


    "But I want to stay...Its good if you are okay now because I have decided to be with you all this day..."


    TianTian immediately regretted what she said, she felt digging her own hole.


    "What...what do you want to do?" She felt scared to hear the answer as far she remembered the only thing the beast want from her, to sleep with her.


    LiMingHu stared on her intensely, but hurted somehow, he sighed, ''This little rabbit obviously scared of me a lot...''


    "Don''t worry...clean yourself, I just want to take a walk with you..."


    TianTian widened her eyes, confused "Take a walk? Where?"


    "You''ll see later...now I give you time to get ready...I''ll wait for you at downstairs.." LiMingHu then stood up and walked out of the room.

 23 A Date with the Beast 1

    Although she is not having a fever anymore TianTian still felt weak.She tried to get up and prepare but she hesitated.In her mind, she had one fear actually, ''He...won''t force me with my condition like this right? I won''t have any strength to refuse him right now...should I just stay and pretending to faint?''


    Aunt Tong who was there to help seemed know what TianTian''s thought about.


    "Don''t worry too much, TianEr... Young Master really cares about you.He was so worried when you fainted"


    TianTian doesn''t know how to respond to Aunt Tong, so she just smiles weakly.


    In her mind, she is still doubting but she decides to give it try.After all, the beast has indeed taken care of her when she was sick,


    ''Alright, I''ll go but it just a grateful act,right! It is!'' She made her mind.TianTian then walked to the bathroom to get ready.


    An hour passed and LiMingHu started impatiently at downstairs,


    ''This little rabbit! Does she purposely make me wait?!! What makes her so long?!''


    He stood from his seat, willing to go up but his step was stopped when TianTian coming down with her simple thin casual cloth although he looked full covered with long sleeves and a turtle neck to warm her body that still weak, and simple long skirt. Tian Tian purposely chose the cloth which would make her looked less attractive. But on the contrary, her appearance couldn''t make the King stop staring at her.


    TianTian was now close in front of him, she wondered why the beast didn''t say anything, so she asked,


    "Where will we go?"


    But LiMingHu didn''t answer, he just smiled and then held TianTian''s hand and led her into the car, "let''s go..."


    Inside the car, although feeling shy, TianTian let her hand to be held tightly by the beast.She didn''t have energy to repel it.TianTian was still wondering where the beast took her.She asked again slowly,


    "Can you tell me first, where will we going? I don''t like any surprise...at least let me know so I can prepare for any worse waiting..."


    LiMingHu glared to her, he smirked for what TianTian thought about,


    "...There won''t be any worse...trust me, you will like the place..."


    TianTian just silent after that, but


    she replied sarcastically in her mind,


    ''How does this beast know I will like it? He doesn''t know me at all...! If he really does, he has freed me already...''


    She felt ironically if the beast knows her liked place but be blind at all about what she hates the most, being thralled by him..


    The car was stop in a market street, right in front of an antique shop. When TianTian walked out from the car, she looked stunned for what she saw.The street and the antique place was too familiar for her.She recognized it as her grandpa''s old shop. Even though it had renovated as an luxury antique shop, with ''Li'' Name on the signboard, indicating the place was belonged to Li Company as well.


    Seeing TianTian''s stunned expression pleased LiMingHu a lot.He chose the place as he remembered how TianTian likes antique things before, so he brought her to one of his favourite antique shop.LiMingHu then hugged TianTian''s waist to enter the place.


    "Come..."


    "Welcome, President Li" A regular greeting from the manager and all workers there made TianTian felt shy, but LiMingHu just ignored them and looked TianTian,


    "How is it? You like it right? You may see around and find what you like here...!"


    TianTian didn''t respond as she looked around with belonging gaze.It''s been years she never had chance to come to this place and how she missed it so much.And then her eyes suddenly fixed with things in a glass display cabinet.She walked closer and observing a gold antique watch, with a flower and two little birds pattern at the cover. TianTian looked to the watch with a longing feeling.She recognized it as her grandpa''s favorite antique watch.She often played with it when she was a little.She remembered she ever dropped it and be scolded by her Grandpa.


    The manager came closer and explain,


    "Do you have interest with this antique watch, Madam? But unfortunately this watch just to be a decoration because it is broken.Let me show you another antique watch which more valuable than this antique watch..."


    LiMingHu also came closer to see what kind of antique watch that attracted TianTian.Surprisedly it was also one of his favourite thing every time he visited the place, but he didn''t take it because like the manager said, it doesn''t work.


    "It''s not valuable coz it''s not working anymore.....Come little rabbit, let see another..."


    "Can I have it?" TianTian suddenly said


    "What?" LiMingHu didn''t catch the words.


    "I don''t need the others, just that watch, can you give it to me?" begged TianTian.


    The manager and other staffs couldn''t believe what they heard, there was a same opinion in their mind,


    ''Other antiques are much valuable than that old watch but this woman insists to choose that?! What a waste!!''


    "Are you sure you don''t want to choose others?" LiMingHu asked again.


    TianTian sighes a little,


    ''I am intending not to demand anything from this beast...but that watch is an exception...it''s grandpa''s...''


    "Yes, for others that watch might be meaningless but for me, it''s more valuable than anything in this room!" TianTian tries to explain how much she wanted that watch and it made LiMingHu curious and a little jealous also to the watch.


    ''Is it more valuable than me?!'' and by that, his desire to subdue her occurred,


    "Well, if you really want it then I can give it to you...but you have to give me something like a return..."


    TianTian''s instinct told her to be aware, it could be seen from her eyes,


    "What...what do you want as the return?"


    The king slowly moved closer to her, and whispered, "Give me your best kiss and say that I am more valuable than that watch...if I satisfy, I''ll give you the watch"


    At once TianTian''s face became red,


    ''This pervert...I know he has no good plan to bring me here..''


    LiMingHu pulled her body closer to him,


    "Well, I''m waiting..."


    Her body was still weak for she refused him, with the soft voice she asked, she bent down her head and closed her eyes, hoping mercy from the beast which she knew it might useless.


    "Don''t...I don''t want... please...everyone is looking..."


    Looking that kind expression, it suddenly hurt the beast''s heart, LiMingHu.But he controlled himself, for now he planned to cheer her up, not to hurt her or being hurt actually.


    He looked at TianTian and sighed,


    ''Why this woman always make everything hard...''


    So he freed TianTian, he just kissed her cheek, and then he gestured the manager to hand over the antique watch TianTian wanted.After he got it, the king put the watch in TianTian''s hand,


    "It''s yours...."


    TianTian looked to the beast widely, and then she looked to her grandpa''s old watch on her hand. A happy drop of tear flows out from her eyes, Tian Tian didn''t hide her happiness for getting the watch, but the king seemed being a little bit disappointed to be ignored.He walked out from the shop before TianTian noticed it.


    TianTian now felt regretted.She caught him up at the outside of the shop, shouted to stop him going far,


    "Wait..." Coz she sudden run, she felt dizzy and almost fainted if LiMingHu didn''t return immediately to hold her.


    For a second, TianTian feels safe in the king''s embrace. LiMingHu released his hold when TianTian had standing firmly.


    "...Thank you...."


    "Silly girl, you just healed...why do you run?!"


    "I...thought you are leaving me..." at that moment TianTian shocked with words that came out from her own mouth,


    ''What???!! Why did I say that...?!!!''


    But its too late to take it back.LiMingHu seemed pleased to hear it.


    "So...you finally can''t stay away from me...??" teased him.


    "No...it''s not like that...I..." And her words stopped, sealed by a light kiss from the beast, TianTian even didn''t have time to refuse it and she didn''t intend to.For the king, its like an open invitation..that''s why, LiMingHu held TianTian''s hand, leading to the car.


    "Now...let''s go home..."


    "Wait...are we going back?" TianTian resisted, she might trying to avoid the lust temptation but mostly because she didn''t want this moment quickly end,


    "I don''t want to come back yet...its too soon.... can...can we just walk for a while?"


    Fighting over his lust, somehow the king also didn''t want this moment end so soon.


    "Fine...let''s walk..."


    TianTian continued felt surprised for the beast had been listened all her demands, its really not like usual.


    ''Why does he so kind to me today?''


    "So...where do you want to go?"


    She wasn''t used to be with the kind version of LiMingHu...for somehow she sudden felt awkward,


    "Ah..ehm..." She noticed some street food she missed the taste "I like to eat street food...let''s go there..."


    "Street food?" Entire his life he didn''t have a chance to eat those kinds of food.

 24 A Date with the Beast 2

    When TianTian brought LiMingHu in front of one street food stall which sold many kinds of seasoned fried meat, LiMingHu gave a confusion and worried look to the food.Seeing it somehow made TianTian happy, she picked 1 stick with 2 meatballs in it.


    "It''s a pity that you never taste them... it''s really yummy...but I understand that this food is not your level..." TianTian was eating 1 meatball from the stick, there was one left and she showed one stick of smokey oily meat toward the beast.LiMingHu hesitated before but he felt challenged by TianTian''s words so then he directly ate from TianTian''s hand.It startled her, that she dropped the last meatball on the ground. There was some sweet sauce dropped on TianTian''s hand.


    "Don''t move...You waste the food.." LiMingHu held TianTian''s hand steadily and then he licked the part where the sauce dropped.TianTian''s face once again burst into red, she pulled back her hand forcefully and stared angrily the beast.


    But LiMingHu just smirked,


    "You are right.It is delicious..."


    "Pervert..." TianTian couldn''t control her flushing face which was pleasing the King.


    Then LiMingHu hugged her waist stick to him,


    "Now, where should we go? Should we taste another one?..." Somehow TianTian could hear the lewd tone in the way he spoke.


    TianTian could felt her heart started beating fast, she felt embarrassed with the embrace.Immediately, she freed herself,


    "Let...just continue to walk...!!!"


    She walked forward, faster and awkwardly which was amused the beast.


    LiMingHu chuckled and then followed her gladly.When TianTian kept walking, she started to reminisce her past.The street gave her the belonging feeling, of how she often spent her childhood there.As her parents were too busy with their deals, mostly helping their neighbors, they often left the children to be taken care of by their grandfather.


    For LiMingHu, the street was also giving old memories to him.He only ever came there one or two times when he was a little, together with little ShuShu...


    it was a happy memory for him.


    Both TianTian and LiMingHu realize that they were now walked side by side and they enjoyed the moment silently.Then suddenly a black cat jumped from no where and it surprised TianTian till she threw herself toward LiMingHu,


    "Akh!!"


    The black cat meowed to TianTian, like scolding her reaction,


    "I don''t know that you scare to a cat?" LiMingHu smirked as he still held TianTian''s shoulders, pleased with the condition.


    TianTian realized that she was almost cuddled by LiMingHu, immediately moved away from him,


    "I am not...it just surprised me for appear suddenly..!"


    "Miaoww.." The black cat sudden curled up around TianTian''s leg, it seemed so friendly with TianTian.


    "Hm...even a cat can be seduced by you, little rabbit..." LiMingHu found it amusing to tease her,


    TianTian likes cats so she didn''t mind with the black cat''s attitude, but she wondered,


    ''Is...this cat could be... the little kitten I met a long time ago??''... She observed the cat closer, she was confirmed,


    "I know this cat! It''s you, isn''t it? My little XiaoMao?" TianTian felt glad to meet the same cat whichever occurred in her dream lately.Then she remembered that she compared this cat with the beast which standing beside her, it made her laughed a little as she looks at the beast''s face and then back to the cat.


    LiMingHu seemed knowing that he was being mocked.He felt irritated but also aroused with TianTian''s little laugh,


    ''She seldom laughs like that in front of me...This little rabbit...''


    He then pulled TianTian up and gave a sudden kiss, a soft one was being put on TianTian''s lip.


    It''s surprising TianTian,


    "You...!!" protested TianTian as his lips freed.

    "It''s your fault to be so cute just now..."


    He smirked, moving backward and by that, accidently stepped on the cat''s tail.


    "Miaaooww!!!" as its instinct, the cat was pissed off and jumped up of anything around to successfully landed a scratch on the King''s face, at his nose exactly.


    "Auchh....'' Didn''t expect to get the attack, LiMingHu became dumb for a second and then he became furious to the cat and tried to catch it, like a little child having fight with a cat.


    TianTian widened her eyes, she felt seeing the side of the beast that she wouldn''t expect that he had it and she didn''t dislike it but oppositely.She laughs so happily to see it, LiMingHu didn''t look scary at that moment.


    "Got you...Haahh!! Now what should I do with you...Should I skin you out??!!!" That was a very serious threat from the beast to the little black cat that finally be caught by the beast.


    As a scary feeling mixed with hilarious feeling, TianTian followed her instinct to be a hero for the cat, she grabbed the cat from the king right away,


    "No...XiaoMao!! She is innocent...How could you do such evil thing to this weak cat!!"


    "It''s not weak at all to me!" LiMingHu once again felt irritated and also became a little bit of jealous to the black cat which now was in TianTian''s embrace.


    "Give me that cat!!"


    "NO!"


    LiMingHu was silent, but TianTian could see his anger was rising up.''He is seriously want to harm the cat'', thinking fast TianTian decided to tame the beast,


    "Please...don''t hurt the cat....I...I''ll do something for you in return..."


    The words were so effective as the beast smirked hearing them,


    "Oh...really...?"


    A slight regret occurs in TianTan''s mind,


    maybe she was throwing herself into a trap.


    "Ye...yes, as long I can do it...just don''t harm the cat..." the unsure tone of TianTian amused the King.


    He couldn''t stop smirking and purposely moved his face closer to TianTian''s face,


    "Then...?" He gestured hoping some response of TianTian.


    Without any clues, TanTan looked lost, she didn''t know what this beast expected her to do? ''...Perhaps...kissing him? He might want it, as he is a big pervert, doesn''t he!!!"


    *gulp, she started to get used to be kissed by this beast but she was never been the one who initiate to kiss him, its somehow so embarrassing for her.


    But she gains her courage, ''I do this for the cat, just imagine kissing a wall!'' She closed her eyes and landed a very quick kiss on the king''s lip.


    The sweet attack from TianTian froze the beast.He really didn''t expect it, his eyes were widened.


    The respond of LiMingHu made TianTian realized that she was wrong, right away her face turns red as tomato,


    "I thought...", she tried to explain but LiMingHu interrupted it, he sealed her mouth by giving a very deep kiss, his body in reflex moving to hug TianTian, but then the cat who seemed very objection to be pressed between them was groaning aloud and jumped from TianTian''s hug,


    "Miaaoorrrww!!!" Thanks to the cat, TianTian could free herself.Getting a so-passionate kiss was making her lost balance a little bit.But after getting back her consciousness, she glanced angrily to LiMingHu.


    "You don''t have right to be angry, little rabbit.You''re the one who started it..." LiMingHu smiled teasing her.


    "It wasn''t what I mean...You showed me your face...and...didn''t say anything...it''s making me misunderstood..."


    "Previously, I just want you to treat my nose...how did I know that you are so eager to kiss me, little rabbit?"


    "It''s not like that!!!" TianTian kept arguing although she knew she wasn''t in strong position to reasoning with him. In her mind, she had scolded her self for her idiotic regretful action. Meanwhile LiMingHu really enjoyed to tease her more,


    "Well..., why don''t you just admit that you want to kiss me either...I don''t mind at all, I allow you to do it again..." He raised his arm, as welcoming TianTian to jump in his embrance.


    "Like I would do that!!! You...you had tricked me...!"


    "Hahaha..." LiMingHu laughed so freely, he was really enjoying the moment and realizing that he was hoping that moment would never end, especially with the girl who stood before him,who looked so pissed off but still cute in his eyes.


    TianTian in other hand felt very embarrassed and tricked, she put a protest action by taking the black cat and walked away from the beast.


    "Come, Xiao Mao, let''s leave this pervert!!"


    LiMingHu enjoyed to see TianTian walked before him but some men suddenly appeared from other corner and grabbed TianTian,


    "....!!!???"


    It happened in front of LiMingHu''s eyes and shocked him.It seemed his enemy had noticed that LiMingHu was alone without his bodyguards, and didn''t want to let go this chance to attack him.

 25 A Date with the Beast 3

    Around nine or ten men suddenly appeared and surrounded LiMingHu.


    "Finish him!!!" Shout the man who grabbed TianTian.The other men acted as the command, they attacked the King at once.LiMingHu didn''t look panic instead he avoided all the attack with easy and didn''t letting any attacks be successfully hurting him.When the leader noticed it, he shouted,


    "IF YOU DARE TO FIGHT BACK, I''LL KILL THIS WOMAN RIGHT NOW...!!!"


    Now when LiMingHu heard it, suddenly his concentration was disturbed, and the others took this chance to give more hits and punches.They finally successfully hurting the king.LiMingHu lost his balance and was falling on his knee.


    "Good!!! Finish himmmm!!!"


    "Noo...!!!" TianTian knew the situation was not good for LiMingHu.He was outnumbered.In other hand, TianTian''s situation was also in difficult position.The man who grabbed TianTian was bigger than her and quite strong.


    Actually since she was a little, her mother has equipped her what to do in dangerous time.She just never had a chance to use it because his brothers protected her so much. Seeing the situation and also feeling so worry about the beast,TianTian decided to practice out what her mother taught her. TianTian stepped so hard on his grabber''s foot,


    "AARGH!"


    and when that man in reflex released his hands, TianTian gave a hard kick with her leg to his between legs,


    "AUuucch, the...that..wo...man....!!!" and then she runs away from him, runs to LiMingHu.


    All men at once felt sorry to their leader who just kicked by TianTian, so they stopped action for a while, waiting for their leader''s next instruction.While LiMingHu tries to stand back, ignoring his injuries and blood which flowing out from his tore lips.


    "Are you okay?" TianTian immediately helped him stand.


    Despite his pain feeling around his body, LiMingHu smiled to hear the worry words from TianTian, he looked at her and pushed her to be his behind.


    "Stay close behind me, I''ll finish them in a second..."


    "WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT??!! ATTACK HIM...FINISH HIM AND BRING THAT BITCH TO ME!!!" Shout the leader in pain, he clearly put a rage on TianTian because if the pain he got.


    But this time, knowing TianTian safe with him, the King seemed getting his game back.With easily, he returned back the attacks while he also made sure TianTian didn''t get any harm.


    At the moment, what TianTian saw mostly was the beast''s back and seeing how brutal the beast defeats his enemies but strangely this time she didn''t feel afraid to the beast.On the contrary, she felt saved by the back of the beast although she still worried, worried that the beast got hurt.


    But turned out she didn''t have to worry, as LiMingHu''s bodyguards appeared and immediately protected their boss and TianTian.In minutes, they managed to control the situation.TianTian was quite amazed to see that.


    One of his man came regretfully,


    "I am sorry, we come late, President Li! Some men suddenly blocking our way to come here...."


    LiMingHu didn''t reply it, he just give the order madly and coldly, as a intimidating lion.


    "Find who they worked for and then finish them...!!"


    After giving the command to his men, LiMingHu held TianTian''s waist and forced her walk into the car.After he locked the car, LiMingHu grabs TianTian''s hands.TianTian already felt upset for being forced in but then she noticed that the beast stared on the red mark on her wrists, he looked weird. LiMingHu then did something surprising,


    he kissed the marks gently.


    "Is it hurt?" LiMingHu asked softly.It surprised TianTian, for she never expected that the beast can be so gentle to her.She felt embarrassed,


    "I am okay..." TianTian pulled back her hands from the beast.LiMingHu then just lay his back and sighs, he looked tired after what happened.She glances to LiMingHu, she also realizing that LiMingHu''s wounds are much serious than her.And all those wounds happened for he tried to protect me so hardly.TianTian felt responsible and as reflex, she touched the wound on LiMingHu''s face, around lip corner and she looked at the beast in worry and regret.


    "This must be hurt..."


    In next second, TianTian seems realizing that she has over the board and ready to pull back her hand but LiMingHu won''t allow her, he grabbed TianTian''s hand to stay touching his lip corner.


    "Don''t move..cause its really hurt...I need your touching to heal me..."


    "It''s absurd, how can just a touching heal your wound?" TianTian felt upset for the beast still have time to tease her.But LiMingHu still didn''t let her hand go,he closed his eyes, and then kissed TianTian''s palm gently.Then he held down TianTian''s hand, folding his fingers to her fingers.TianTian gave up, she let the beast holding her hand, yet she still worry about him,


    "I think you need go to the hospital immediately!"


    LiMingHu opened his eyes and smiled,


    "Are you worry about my wounds?"


    TianTian was nervous, she tried to explain,


    "Well...you were hurt because of me...I just feel bad...how if I take you to the hospital now...let''s treat your wounds before it getting bad."


    LiMingHu smirked again,


    "Then I don''t need hospital...what I need is this..." And then without any warning, he kissed TianTian passionately.TianTian surprised, at first, she wanted to pushed him but somehow she just let LiMingHu satisfied to explore her mouth with his tongue.And a weird pleasure feeling came to TianTian as she didn''t hate to be kissed in that way anymore.Minutes later, a knock on the car window finally made the king willing to release TianTian''s mouth.


    In upset, LiMingHu opened the window,


    "What!!"


    "Eng...I am sorry to bother you, President but you left your smartphone and there is a call for you..." One of his men with terrified handed over the smartphone.


    LiMingHu took the smartphone and see the caller.He seems disturbed when he answered it,


    "...yes?"


    TianTian felt shy for the kiss, she tried to let go her hand but it didn''t work for the beast didn''t want to let it go.


    "...I see, nothing to worry, I''ll check it immediately..."

    TianTian thought whoever the beast spoke to, the caller must gave him a trouble news for she could feel his intense when he sudden hold her hands tightly.


    After the call was off, LiMingHu gestures one of his man to drive the car back home.Seeing LiMingHu''s face so intense, TianTian couldn''t help not to asking in worry and curious.


    "Is...everything okay?"


    LiMingHu looked at her, and suddenly he laid his head on TianTian''s tiny shoulder.It surprised TianTian,


    "Don''t move...just for a while...let me sleep for a while" and LiMingHu closed his eyes.TianTian really didn''t dare to move, she observed that LiMingHu was really asleep.


    A driver was also shocked to see the view from the car inner mirror, he comments to TianTian.


    "Wow, you are awesome, Miss TianTian!!...President must be really loved you, coz I never see him sleep easily in any woman''s shoulder before..."


    TianTian only could smile nervously.She observed LiMingHu,


    "He is really handsome when he sleeps..." TianTian whispers and then felt shocked by herself, her face became red and she turned her head to the window, but she couldn''t stop thinking,


    ''Who is the caller? LiMingHu seems so troubled when he answered it... but why do I care about it??? TianTian, are you really has falling for this beast?!"


    Although TianTian kept looking the road, but she still can feel the warmth which came from the folding hands between her hand and the beast''s hand.

 26 The Chain from Pas

    When the car was stopped at the mansion. TianTian still didn''t dare to move. She was thinking to wait till the beast awake. But then she heard...


    "Umh...No...ugh..." LiMingHu seemed to have a dream...his face looked troubled, but his eyes stayed closed.


    ''Does he has a nightmare?'' Tian Tian started worried....


    "Hey...wake up...are you okay?"


    Hearing TianTian''s voice, LiMingHu opened his eyes and shouted, grabbed TianTian''s shoulder,


    "ShuShu...!!"


    Then he was fully awake, he noticed he just daydreamed and wrong seeing TianTian as ShuShu so he immediately calmed himself and went out from the car.


    LiMingHu remembered there was something important he needs to do, so he ordered TianTian to enter the house.


    "Just eat and sleep well okay little rabbit..." He kissed TianTian''s forehead before he turned around,


    "Wait...where are you going?" Without she realized, TianTian had grabbed LiMingHu''s cloth to hold him back.


    LiMingHu smiles,


    "Are you not willing me to go?"


    TianTian let go the grabbing, "No...I mean...be safe..."


    LiMingHu felt happy for TianTian''s concern, he hugged TianTian and whispered "...don''t worry, I definitely will back...and I will definitely come back to eat you up" teased him.


    TianTian pushed him back and LiMingHu just laughed, enjoyed the respond of TianTian, which looking at her face that was flushed before then he drove the car by himself and went to someplace.


    TianTian in another hand, entering the mansion but her mind still curious and worried about LiMingHu... about the dream he had, and the name he called,


    ''ShuShu...He called that name in a dream...isn''t that a woman''s name?'' TianTian shaked her head strongly,


    ''Wake up TianTian...his dream is none of your business...'' then she walked in the mansion.


    A couple of hours later,


    With a steady but quick steps, LiMingHu walked into a small room of DaiShou Hospital, which from there he could watch a room beside, where the doctor just finished checked the patient.. The patient is covered by many medical tools to extend her life. Although the face couldn''t be seen but the patient was definitely a female.


    A minute later, the doctor entered the same room where LiMingHu was. He surprised to see the king had arrived, but the doctor seemed familiar with LiMingHu''s coming. By kept looking at the mirror, watching the patient, LiMingHu asked,


    "How is she?"


    The doctor just sighed,


    "Just now the status is not stable but then everything''s back like usual...nothing improving...but she survives, she is a fighter..."


    LiMingHu didn''t respond, he just kept looking at the body on the bed.


    ''Nothing changes...after all these years...''


    Seeing the way LiMingHu look to the patient so intense, made the doctor had assuming that LiMingHu was really care of her, like a lover but no one knew the real feeling LiMingHu towards the patient just caused by a regretting feeling. He just couldn''t leave her alone..


    for what had happened in the past and what had he promised to President Sam.


    The door was opened, another visitor entered the room, it''s President Sam in his wheelchair, accompanied by his loyal assistant, Ms.Chen.


    He instructed the doctor and Ms Chen to get out from the room, leaving just two of them, Him and the King...


    "You seemed being delayed in the way?"


    President Sam opened the conversation, but it had an unhappy tone. LiMingHu could see that President Sam actually already knew what just happened to him,


    "...Please forgive me, I got a pest problem in the way...but it''s already been dealed. Thanks for your concern..."


    President Sam just looked at the mirror, it looked like he either looked at the patient or the reflection of LiMingHu''s expression.


    "It''s good to hear it...ah, poor my ShuEr... no one can immediately accompanying her when she suffers...after all these year...Tell me the truth, MingHu... have you giving up on her?"


    The question was spoken soft but sharp, it shocks the king to hear it, as he answers right away intensely,


    "Never... I had promised to you, I will do anything to save her...even giving all I have...I never give up on ShuShu..."


    For a second, both of them stared to each other with deep tension. LiMingHu''s eyes showed a conviction of his words...which then made President Sam took a sigh,


    "I believe you, Son... Don''t disappointing me and ShuEr... I want you to be careful with your ''little pet'' at your home, don''t play with her too long...don''t make it complicated...or ShuEr will sad..."


    "I...understand" It was spoken with a deep pressure in the King''s mouth.


    President Sam pressed some button on the remote in his wheelchair, it seemed has function to call, because right away Ms Chen entered the room and assisted President Sam out of the room, leaving LiMingHu alone, with his cold and flat expression.


    Escaping to the roof and having his own time, LiMingHu''s thought back to his past... All his successful life and the position he has right now, they are actually the cruel chain that given by President Sam to him. Since he was a little, all his family were died on ship accident. As the closest partner of his Grandpa, President Sam took care of him and since that he grew together with ShuShu, the only President Sam''s granddaughter. ShuShu was an innocent and weak girl, and clearly fell on him since they met...so she treated LiMingHu as her future husband and stick with him all the time. But LiMingHu was actually just have a brother-sister feeling with her, not more.


    In other side, without asking his opinion, President Sam had decided to engage LiMingHu with ShuShu and made LiMingHu as his only heir of all his companies. Now, LiMingHu is the strongest man in business and President Sam had retired but actually with a little influence from President Sam, he could easily destroyed everything that the King had. If LiMingHu is the king, then President Sam is the Emperor...


    In his rebelling age, LiMingHu struggled with this relationship, he extremely didn''t like to be ordered/chained like this... He tried to escape, joined with the triads and almost lost his life. Again, ShuShu helped him to revive, and that day....the terrible accident, ShuShu saved his life but since that she fell in coma. LiMingHu then blamed himself and made a deal with President Sam...no matter what condition of ShuShu...live or die, she already have a status as his wife. It is to repay her sacrifice for saving his life...


    LiMingHu never regretted the deal before, until now...he had a doubt in himself, could he kept his promise as he realized his heart no longer could be controlled by his mind.


    ''ShuShu never wake up...while I have TianTian, waiting at home...''


    LiMingHu knew he was being selfish all this time... Before he met TianTian, he never let himself being led by passion...he never had interest with any women... Now, all he could thinking was TianTian, how he wanted her so much, and how he cared her so much.


    But the ambush that happened just now and a hard reminder from President Sam seemed awaked his mind. He couldn''t be more selfish than now, soon or later, he made TianTian in danger if he kept her by his side.


    ''Maybe I must let her go, before it was too late''

 27 A Fiancee and Her hear

    Back to the mansion, TianTian had her own struggles... The attack experience she had made her realized that she no longer hated the beast...especially after she saw how the beast protected her and got hurt because of her, now the only thing she could think about was why the beast was not coming home yet...


    She couldn''t relax and wandering around the front hall of mansion. All servants noticed it, even Aunt Ma tried to calm her,


    "Don''t worry too much, Tian Er... Young Master will be alright, but you...you should take a rest now...You haven''t eat since back, why don''t you eat dinner first?" Aunt Ma advised.


    "But he got hurt a lot... Why hasn''t he come back yet?...It really worrying me...Don''t you worry too, Aunt Ma?"


    TianTian looked at Aunt Ma.


    Aunt Ma smiled a little, she glad to see how TianTian started to care of her Master...


    "Well, I worry too but this is not the first time Young Master got hurt...so we all here kind of get used to it..."


    "What do you mean?"


    Aunt Ma took TianTian to sit, and then she told TianTian how in the past, when the beast was young and rebelled, even active joined with the triads, at that time, almost every week he went home, covered with wounds and blood. Thanks to the white fox, Mr YuFang that always be with him and protected him, no matter in any conditions, the beast could return to his home.


    From the story Aunt Ma told, TianTian started to understand more about the beast...


    ''So LiMingHu grew in a hard time, no wonder he became so fierce and cold...like a beast...''


    "...and he really made us all worried even Young Miss Shu..." Aunt Ma suddenly stopped after she almost mentioned the ShuShu name. "Ah...look at me, already old and reckless...never know when to stop if already talking...."


    But too late, TianTian had heard it,


    "Young Miss Shu? Is it Shu Shu? Aunt Ma, I ever heard LiMingHu mentioned that name in his dream...do you know who she is?"


    Aunt Ma was hesitated, the name supposed shouldn''t be mentioned especially in front of TianTian...


    "Please Aunt Ma...tell me..."


    Aunt Ma sighed, she could see TianTian already curious about the name, soon or later, she would found out about it. Beside Aunt Ma also felt unfair for TianTian if she never know about ShuShu.


    "Young Miss ShuShu...is Young Master Li''s...fiancee, she grew up with Young Master since they were in primary"


    ''Fiancee?..LiMingHu has a fiancee?'' This fact gave a shock to TianTian, suddenly she couldn''t think of anything, she just felt confused....


    ''If he has fiancee...why? why did he after me? He...??!'' And her feeling turned into an upset feeling... she felt disappointing with the King... ''What an unfaithful man he is!!''. And TianTian felt hurt in her heart, she felt be lied all these time...'' If he has a fiancee but he still want...to me? Then he is really a bastard!!''


    Seeing non-expression from TianTian, Aunt Ma was really worried, she knew the fact about Young Miss ShuShu would shocked TianTian, but she didn''t know that it shocked TianTian that much.


    "Tian Er...are you okay?" Aunt Ma patted her hands with worry and it awoke TianTian,


    "Ah...eh...so...ShuShu...is his fiancee...how come he..ah nevermind...but Aunt Ma, where is she now? Why she never come here?"


    "Young Miss ShuShu...she is sick and already in coma for many years... TianEr, Aunt Ma doesn''t want you to be misunderstanding Young Master... Although she is his fiancee...believe me, they are more like a brother-sister relationship... Young Master never...never really fall on her, it is you, the first woman he loves..I can see it" Aunt Ma looked at her to convince her with her words...she hoped she didn''t make any trouble in her Master''s romance life.


    Hearing the coma condition of a fiancee, suddenly TianTian felt guilty for her... She curious why the girl was in coma..but she doesn''t have will to ask about it...TianTian was filled by anger more than a curiosity.


    "I...don''t know, Aunt Ma...maybe you are wrong...He selfishly pushed and took me here, threaten me to follow what he wants....I think he just toyed with me...it isn''t real love..."


    "Tian Er..I know the way he did was harsh and...sometimes wrong, but he is really care about you...I never see he cares other women like he cares you more...he was even willing to get hurt to protect you, right? He just don''t know how to show his love..."


    Aunt Ma kept persuaded her but TianTian doesn''t want to hear anything more,


    "I am tired, I want to sleep..." She walked to upstairs, ignoring Aunt Ma that still want to talk...so Aunt Ma just could looked at her in sad.


    In the room, TianTian doesn''t sleep at all...she still mad and felt frustasted after knowing about ShuShu...what made her so frustasted was she realized now for sure that she already fell on the beast for a quite time...maybe since she got used to be kissed by the beast, and how her body always reacted to him in passion... tears started to flow, she felt herself was very dumb to easily fell for such a bastard...she cried silently.


    In that moment, the sound of engine came...Aunt Ma immediately opened the front door and saw LiMingHu had returned, he walked into the mansion and looked around...looking for TianTian, he looked still sober, but the alcohol smell could easily detected by Aunt Ma, ''Looks like Young Master has drink a lot...''


    "Aunt Ma...where is she?"


    Realizing whom that her Master looking for, Aunt Ma answered softly in worry,


    "Miss TianTian is in her room, she might taking a rest right now..."


    ''Sleeping already? Didn''t she care about my wounds before?'' LiMingHu felt upset about it, "Fine, I also want to sleep..." He was going to walk to his room when Aunt Ma stopped him,


    "Ehmm..Young Master..."


    "What is it, Aunt Ma?"


    "Actually Miss TianTian was kept waiting for Young Master return just now...but then Miss TianTian asked about Young Miss ShuShu and...I told her....and then after that, Miss ShuShu just returned to her room..."


    "She knows about ShuShu?" LiMingHu surprised, but then he remembered he ever mentioned the name accidentally in his dream. Maybe TianTian really heard it at that time.


    "Please forgive this old lady, I didn''t think that Miss TianTian would be very shocked after know about Young Miss ShuShu..." Aunt Ma didn''t stop to show how she regretted it.


    "She is shocked?" Aunt Ma nodded.


    "I see.." LiMingHu changed his mind to go to his room, instead he is headed to TianTian''s room.

 28 The Little Kitten inside the Beas

    LiMingHu walked slowly toward TianTian''s room,... he was thinking,


    ''If she knows about ShuShu...she might hate me now...is it a right time to let her go?"


    But his heart didn''t agree,...he didn''t want to let her go. TianTian was the first woman who made him felt a passion...everything about her like a drug that makes him addicted. Once he sees her, he suddenly can forget anything and just be with her make him happy the most...This intense game to get TianTian to be his....made him felt alive than usual...


    Now he arrived in front of TianTian''s door, he didn''t knock, he just opened it slowly and then he saw the back of TianTian who laid on the bed, although he didn''t see the face...he suddenly realizes how often he saw that sad figure of TianTian...maybe all this time, he really being selfish to TianTian...


    All this time, the beast tried to conquer his little rabbit...he almost success, but just in that moment...he finally saw how scared the little rabbit was and the beast didn''t have heart to see it.


    LiMingHu slowly approached the bed, TianTian who didn''t sleep noticed his coming and she didn''t want to welcome him at all, but she didn''t have energy to cast him away...too tired...so she just covered herself with blanket.


    The beast kept come closer and when he sat close to TianTian''s side, he reached his right hand, want to open the blanket but stopped when he heard TianTian from inside the blanket...


    "Don''t come closer...go away...I want to sleep"


    "You don''t want to see me at all?" asked the beast, not in anger...but in soft voice that TianTian surprised to hear...there is a sadness in it. What kind of face he made now? TianTian finally peeked from her blanket and she startled because LiMingHu was looking at her... the wounds on his lip still not yet be treated and the smell of alcohol was very strong...


    "Is it still hurt?" TianTian instantly felt worried again...


    The King smiles a little, he felt happy to see how TianTian worried about him, he closing his face to her,


    "It''s nothing...don''t worry..."


    TianTian back to realize that she was angry to him, so the tone was change sharply and sunk into her blanket again


    "I don''t worry about you..just go away..."


    Although he felt sad but LiMingHu kept smiled to see how cute the reaction of TianTian when she was upset. This kind of moment, TianTian''s warmth and cuteness made him unwilling to let her go...he wanted to touch and kiss her more...


    " ... It seems I have made you very angry today..." LiMingHu paused, "...no...maybe since beginning, I have been so...so...wrong to you..."


    ''What happened to this beast? Is he showing regret about how he treated me all this time?''


    TianTian kept silent but listening,


    Almost in entire his experience in business, he, LiMingHu, the King never shows any repentance for his mistakes, either in destroying other man''s business or even make others losing their life. He kept all in his heart and wore a beast mask, who never looks weak to anyone, even in front of President Sam, his superior. It was his motto..."Like in the law of wild animals, the weak will be destroyed..."


    But now, he felt weak in front of this woman...he doesn''t want to hurt her anymore...so he pressed his ego deeply,


    "....I am....I am sorry...for everything..." in a very small tone, but still could be heard by TianTian,


    ''Finally...for the 1st time...he can say sorry to me...maybe he was really drunk right now'' Somehow TianTian felt satisfied, although she was actually no longer upset about the way beast acted...but then she remembers about ShuShu,...


    ''Yes...he should felt sorry for what he did to me and to his fiancee...''


    "You should say it to your fiancee...not to me" TianTian spoke her mind...she could kept it more.


    "My fiancee...ShuShu, she has been in coma since 10 years ago...But the engagement happened because I promised to her Grandfather, if she could wake up, I will make her to be my legal wife...its my debt to her..She,..being in coma because of me" It''s strange to tell all about it to TianTian, but somehow that night, the beast started to open his heart and told TianTian about his past... Maybe because deep in his heart, the king wanted TianTian to understand his condition, about why he stayed to keep the promise to ShuShu but also understand that he didn''t have any feeling to ShuShu like what he had toward TianTian...and maybe he could do this because kicked by the alcohol''s effect.


    "And...that''s why I still kept the promise until now...but you know TianTian... she never wake up...never..." LiMingHu slowly closed his eyes...and when he paused, TianTian was curious, so she opened her blanket and saw LiMingHu lost his balance, TianTian instantly caught him, which made the beast now laid on her embrace...Now, TianTian sure that LiMingHu was really drunk, but she could accept that he just slept like that,


    so TianTian clapped LiMingHu''s cheeks softly to wake him up,


    "Hey...wake up...you can''t sleep here!!"


    The King reacted, he opened his eyes and just straight looked at TianTian''s eyes that looked swelling a little because of crying. LiMingHu raised his hand, touch gently TianTian''s cheek,


    "I have make you crying a lot....I am sorry...TianTian...I really really sorry...can you forgive me...? Please don''t hate me..."


    ''Didn''t expect this beast can become a cute kitten when he drunk...'' TianTian kept her mind clear, she took off the beast''s hand from her cheek and tried to wake up, moving the beast from the bed,


    "LiMingHu, go back to your room....you are drunk right now!!"


    But LiMingHu was too strong for her, when he fought back, somehow the beast managed to lay TianTian back on the bed with him on her, so close, and thrn LiMingHu was suddenly laying his head on TianTian''s chest.


    "No...I won''t go till you forgive me..."


    TianTian felt she was talking to a child right now, she also knew it was useless to make sense with a drunken, so she tried to follow what the Beast said, to lure him back to his room,


    "Ok...ok...I forgive you...now...let''s stand up...and let''s go to your room okay...it''s already night and you need to sleep"


    "But...I want to sleep with you..." LiMingHu raised his head again and when their eyes meet together, LiMingHu can''t hold any longer and giving a soft kiss to TianTian''s lip...more and more intense. In a moment TianTian like bewitched by the beast''s kiss. She could think clearly,...in her mind, she mumbles...


    ''He is cute, the kiss is good...I like him... but does he like me??? How about ShuShu...his promise...???'' And by then TianTian back to her consciousness, right when LiMingHu started to embrace her more intensely, kissing her neck.


    "STOP...!!.. I don''t want this!!!". As her hand was free, TianTian immediately slapped LiMingHu''s face strongly to awake him...


    Because of pain, the beast stopped...


    he looked surprised, angried, hurted..but then he dropped his face right beside TianTian''s face...whispered in her ear,


    "Please don''t hate me...don''t go... I...love you, Tian....Tian..." In the next second, the beast didn''t move at all, TianTian figured out that he had been knocked down. With all her strength, TianTian successfully pushed LiMingHu to her side, and TianTian herself laid down again at another side of bed.


    "Why does his body need to be so heavy?...If you drunk, you supposed to back and sleep in your own room!!!" TianTian knew her protest couldn''t be heard anymore by LiMingHu who already in deep sleep. TianTian once again turned to look at LiMingHu''s face beside her. Her finger softly touched LiMingHu''s eyesbrows...and then it''s exploring to his nose, and lips... she remembered the soft kiss she had just now and her face was flushed.


    "It is dangerous...I think I really have fallen on you...what do you think I should do now, hey the King of Beast?" TianTian chuckles about the nickname that she made secretly for LiMingHu... Suddenly occured what her GrandPa said in the past..."You can''t solve the problem when you are tired....Take enough sleep and when you''re awake, you can start to find the solution of your problem..."


    And she decided to follow that advice...


    "It''s enough for today...let us just sleep tonight and see what we can do tomorrow..." TianTian slowly closed her eyes and fall asleep. Both of them didn''t realize that their sleeping positions, each was bending their bodies toward each other, and it looked like a heart shape they made with their bodies.


    *In the present,


    Inside the memory...TianTian whispers to herself,


    ''If this is a dream, I don''t want to wake up again....I really wishes that I can always sleep by his side every night...Please don''t wake me up from this dream...I am scared to remember what happens next...''

 Chapter 29 - A New Deal

    In early morning, LiMingHu got awake first, and he noticed that he was drunk and ended slept on TianTian''s bed...with TianTian slept beside him. Despite of his hangover pain, it was surprising him happily to see the sleeping face of TianTian... so he back to lay down and kept watching TianTian sleeping, his hand started to held TianTian''s hand and the other hand began to explore TianTian''s face, he touched her eyes, nose and lips softly... and he slowly closed his face to kiss TianTian''s forehead but before he successed.


    TianTian opened her eyes and caught him in the act, but TianTian didn''t move away from him, which was a good sign for the beast to continue his act, he kissed TianTian''s forehead, and smiled to her nervously,


    "Morning..."


    TianTian actually not fully awake yet, it was the kiss that finally awake her fully, she startled and rose her body from the bed so did LiMingHu...


    "You...you already awake ..so...you can back to your room..." TianTian felt nervous suddenly, she covered her nervousness with demanding him in high tone, but she didn''t actually upset...and the King knew it... in fact, he now had remembered what happened during his drunk time, which made him felt shy for showing his weak side in front of this woman.


    "Ah...Ahah up...You''re right...I return to my room now..." LiMingHu stood up from the bed and walked stiffly out of the room. Before he went out, he turned,


    "If you are ready, come down immediately...to have breakfast" he commanded and then he went out.


    Strangely, in this morning...the usual arrogant commanding tone of LiMingHu didn''t upset TianTian anymore... she even could see and understand that LiMingHu actually also felt nervous like her...after what she heard last night, the explanation, the confession... it almost like a dream, but TianTian knew it was real,...and now she began to look LiMingHu in different way... it didn''t mean that she was no longer upset about ShuShu.... it just she might can understand the circumstances, ShuShu had saved his life, so he repaid with the promise....it made her understand that LiMingHu was not a bastard like she thought, but a responsible man who care about people that close to him. And LiMingHu''s feeling about her...


    ''I need you....TianTian..'' Those words pretty much like a confession for TianTian... LiMingHu might be really like her...


    But still, she wondered could she allowed to keep liking the beast while there was another pity woman who wait to wake up and dreamed to be the king''s wife? Are they allowed to be together? She was not sure she could do it.


    While in the dinner room, LiMingHu still sitting nervous, waiting for TianTian went down to there. Aunt Ma and others was preparing the food. Some servants had gossiping what possible happened last night, as they knew their Master slept all night in Miss TianTian''s room again.... they assumed Miss TianTian had officially became the Madam of the house, Aunt Ma scolded them back to work, but she also smiled to see the expression of her Young Master was better than yesterday.


    While waiting, a call from the whitefox, YuFang came... LiMingHu answered it, but before he said anything, YuFang had swarmed him with many questions...


    "Where were you yesterday? I tried to reach you....I heard about the attack, are you okay? Should we go to the hospital?" Despise of his coolness appearance, YuFang always easily panic if hearing anything happened to LiMingHu, maybe because what they had in the past...for many times YuFang had to drag wounded LiMingHu''s body to the hospital...and then YuFang need to scold him a little bit after that.... it was when they were in triads, but still old habit never dies.


    "I am fine...any progress about the attack?"


    "I have check their background...it seemed they just be paid by someone to attack you purposely... but I still trying to figure out who is behind them...any thought?"


    "From the way they fought, they are not from the same group we used joined...so It''s not the old enemy....maybe someone that closer to us...someone inside...I have some suspects....later I send to you the names, try to check what had been they do lately...see if there is any connection."


    "Okay...then will you back to office today? We have some important meetings that can''t be delayed..."


    At the same time, TianTian was going down and approached the dinner table, she sat silently, tried not to disturb the calling...LiMingHu just glanced to her before he replied to YuFang,


    "....Because of my wounds, I think I will not go to office for several days ahead...you can represent me in any meetings and you can send me the updates with any reports I need to read about...And take a note, I don''t want to be disturbed for couple of days ahead..."


    "What??? But the meetings...*click" The calling was disconnected by the King.


    YuFang in the office, just could stared his smartphone and then spontaneously throw out his upset mind,


    "Are you kidding??!!! You said it was not serious injury but still want to have some days take-off ???!!! You purposely wanted to make me suffer Huhhh...aahh, so many meetings and work papers...I can work overtime again...hik hik..."


    When he realized some employees stared oddly to him.... YuFang tried to control himself to calm again...


    "Ehm...nothing to see...back to work..."


    In his mind, he also curious about the reason His Boss wanted to stay at home instead working at office...


    ''Its weird...Before, he just goes home to sleep or eat..the most time of his life, he preferred spending his time working than stay at home....hm...is it because of that little rabbit? I wonder....''


    TianTian stared confusedly to LiMingHu who disconnected the calling.


    "You...don''t go to work today?" she asked carefully. She diverted her eyes to the food that be served by Aunt Ma and the servants, tried not to look at LiMingHu''s eyes directly.


    "Yes" LiMingHu also did the same, he began to focus eating the food.


    "Oh" Short reply from TianTian and then they stopped talk and just focus to eat... This odd view made the servants thought that they were fighting last night... but TianTian and LiMingHu didn''t feel odd at all, on the contrary, they felt comfort to just eat and not talking... they enjoyed the moment. For many times, LiMingHu glanced to TianTian and so did her. They paid full attention to every moves of each other, like how LiMingHu moves the spoon and fork...strangely TianTian caught that LiMingHu was so elegant and handsome while eating...she didn''t notice it before.


    In other side, LiMingHu seems recording what he saw, how TianTian liked to roll the noodle with her fork before she ate it, or how she moved the last piece of honey chicken meat that she like most, and then ate it for the last. At the end, TianTian would drink a lot of warm water at once then ask for the refill once more time until she was really done drinking. Actually he always noticed these eating habits of TianTian before and now...Those were cute acts in LiMingHu''s eyes anyway.


    But now the dishes already be taken up and the table was clean, the breakfast was done, still none of them rose from their seats, they were llike waiting for who first to stand.


    ''He doesn''t go to work today...and from the call just now...it seems he plans to stay at home for several days...what is his plan?'' TianTian wanted to ask, but she didn''t know how to start...


    ''She is different today, it is like she starting to be more kind and friendly to me...even more... does she start to like me? Doesn''t she... But either of them, I still have to let her go...maybe not rally have to be now...maybe after couple of days later...I really don''t want to...''


    "I..."


    "I..."


    Finally they opened their mouth at the same time, what a perfect timing...but then TianTian let the King to say first...


    "I know you never like to stay here any longer...so...I decided to free you from our deal..."


    TianTian surprised, the deal about being his woman for three months... how long was the time already passed? She forgot to track the time because of all events that happened lately... it maybe already 2 months since the deal...


    "But...it still have 1 more month..." TianTian suddenly felt shy when she found out she actually didn''t want the deal to be off too quickly.


    The beast noticed it, he smirked teasing her,


    "So..you really want to be my woman like in the deal...or to be my private servant??"


    "No!...I mean...I glad if you want to cancel the deal...I am really happy that I can go home now...!!" TianTian rose with upset..


    "Wait....I am not finish..." TianTian sat again... "Like you said, there is actually still one month left..."


    "So...?"


    "This time, I don''t want to force you...but can I ask you to stay with me for just 1 month...? Its okay if you cannot like me...I won''t force you to, just accompany me for 1 month and then you free to leave me, leave this place and return to your home..." LiMingHu stared to her deeply...there was no lie in his eyes...he was being serious...


    ''....Just for 1 month...to be with him? Actually without being asked, I really willing to be with Him...but if only 1 month, will I not fallen on him too deeply later?...Can I still forget about him later and make all those 1 month memories just as my treasure... atthen he will back to his promise with ShuShu, I also will return to who I am before? ... in just one month...it seems still too long but also... too short...'' TianTian thought deeply about how she felt right now...but the silence from TianTian made the King nervous and discouraged.


    "You really can''t give me your time, even just for 1 month? Then how about 3 weeks..." Still silence....


    LiMingHu sighed...maybe he was wrong to think that TianTian could like him after what he did to her...he was too boastful...


    "...2 weeks?" It was the last offer...if not maybe 1 week or even if only 1 day, he would happy if TianTian willing to be with him, not by forced to...


    "Deal..." Suddenly there was a responds... and it surprised LiMingHu...


    "2 weeks....I agree to stay for that long..."


    TianTian still flushed to answer it, because that means she admitted that she had a bit of like feeling toward the beast after all....


    And the beast realized it clearly, which made LiMingHu so happy and smiled widely to her... TianTian also smiled back to him...


    "Then...what should we do in these 2 weeks?" TianTian felt nervous again, remembering what thing that the beast always tried to do in the first deal... taking her virginity...if he still wanted to do it now...she would regretted to agreed this new deal...


    "I won''t make you feeling not comfort anymore...this time you can decide what should we do in this 2 weeks. I promise to do anything that you like, TianTian..." LiMingHu didn''t want to be selfish anymore...although he really wanted to touch TianTian so much...he restrained himself until TianTian willing to be touched.


    TianTian didn''t expect that kind of answer from the beast... she felt being respected this time, and it made her so happy, she immediately tried to think what activities she could do with the king, but when she saw the dry wounds on LiMingHu''s lip, she decided,


    "Then... we need to take care of your wounds first"

 Chapter 30 - Sweet Moment (1)

    The Sun had reached its peak, and there was the unusual scene in the centre of The living room.


    "Is this necessary?" LiMingHu hesitated.


    "It''s not a time to feel shy...Listen to me...hurry up, take off your cloth..." TianTian ordered with a very serious look.


    "I think...better not..." he was still hesitated.


    "If you are not willing, I will help you to take it off..." TianTian did come closer and pulled out the beast''s t-shirt that he wore on...while LiMingHu tried to defend himself even though he kind alike TianTian''s initiaive.


    "Alright...alright..."


    Finally he gave up and took off his T-shirt, showing his six pack muscles that covered with some bruises and wounds. If not because of these bruises, of course the Beast wouldn''t hold his desire on TianTian whom was so close to him now.


    Seeing those bruises and wounds made TianTian felt remembered the incident and felt bad ...She touched the most dark-blue coloured bruise which looked the worse bruise around his left waist.


    "Hey,..." LiMingHu reacted a little bit pain,


    "Is it hurt?" TianTian looked worried and almost cried...she didn''t expect there were so many bruises...and all of them came from protecting her from the attack.


    Seeing TianTian who almost cried for him made LiMingHu felt warmth and touched.


    "Don''t cry... it makes you look ugly..."


    Upset with the words, TianTian purposely pressed the other small bruise and LiMingHu pretended to be hurt by the hit,


    "Auchh...actually you want to treat my wounds or just want to add it more?"


    he teased her again...


    "I really will add it more if you don''t be silence and let me work..." TianTian scolded him like scolding a naughty student.


    While she was dabbing the medicine oil on to the bruises, she talked softly,


    "Next time, don''t let anyone hurt you because of me...I will also try my best not to give you trouble like this again...just...protect yourself..."


    Although it was sincere words, it sounded a mock for the King,


    "How can I do that? The real man have to able to protect his woman... I won''t never let you in danger...if it happens again, then I will still protect you first.."


    LiMingHu stared at TianTian seriously, then he held TianTian''s hand and kiss the hand,


    "I will always protect this hand...and everything in you...none will be harmed..."


    TianTian blushed right away... now as she conscious about her feeling to LiMingHu...every flirting word from him now could shake her heart easily...she immediately took her hand away from his hand.


    "Hah...what are you talking about..." ''dug...dug...'', her heart beat so fast so TianTian tried to calm herself... she gave herself a hand-fan to cool her down, "I think the weather today is too hot..." Her reactions just too cute for LiMingHu, so he teased her again...


    "Is it hot? I don''t feel hot at all..." He purposely come closer to TianTian and managed to cornered her in front of the book shelf..."Ah, well, maybe if you take off your cloth too like me...you will not feel hot...should I help you to take it off like you did to mine?" He pretended to reach her cloth... but before he went furthermore, TianTian instantly escaped through below his arm and start to run to the kitchen...


    "Hey...where do you go?...we are not finish yet!...my wounds still need to be treated !!" shouts LiMingHu


    "Take a break!!..I need to drink..." shout TianTian back while she kept running...


    LiMingHu laughed a loud to hear the excuse...


    After that, when she came back, TianTian warned no teasing while she continued treated the wounds...LiMingHu obeyed her...


    "Its done!" TianTian once again couldn''t hold her proud smile, seeing her masterpiece of wound wrapping on the beast''s body,


    LiMingHu who was being forced to stand still for quite long hours, felt finally free and wanted to wake up but suddenly TianTian held him to sit back,


    "Wait,...not yet.." LiMingHu stared to her confusedly...didn''t she said ''...done'' just now?


    The beast didn''t expect for what TianTian did next. She closed her eyes and both her hands touched his wound part softly,


    "Let it heals quick...begone all pain" and TianTian blew onto the wound wrap.


    "What are you doing?" LiMingHu couldn''t hold his laughing...for him, the acts of TianTian just...too childish yet too cute...


    Seeing LiMingHu''s reaction, TianTian sudden felt embarrassed, she always did that since little, and in everytime she treated her brothers or to her students sometimes. She just forgot that the beast was not her family nor her little student...


    "It..its nothing....its just a small tradition from my family...you don''t need to laugh about it" TianTian couldn''t see the beast directly because she still felt embarrassed. How could she treated the king as her brother or even worse as an elementary students?! Now look at him, he mocked her already with the look. She just wanted to go...


    But LiMingHu realized that and then he smiled and held TianTian''s hand and lay his forehead onto TianTian''s shoulder to make her stay, "I like that..."


    "What?"


    "You must do that to me every time I feel pain..." commanded the king, raising his head, made his face became so close with TianTian...


    "Because it''s really work.. ah, I don''t feel pain at all now...you are amazing healer..."


    "You are too exaggerate it!!" TianTian now still felt embarrassed, but with different reason... its because the beast''s face was too close...


    "TianTian..." with that short distance, LiMingHu couldn''t take his eyes away, he looked deeply to Tian Tian''s eyes..


    "Maybe I need another treatment which can make me feel better?"


    "What do you mean...?" Too close...slowly the beast''s face moving closer. It''s made TianTian couldn''t think anything else...she felt bewitched by LiMingHu''s eyes.


    And slowly but sure, LiMingHu kissed TianTian''s lip softly. Unusually for TianTian, she allowed it and didn''t fight back at all but just surrender to this passion... Maybe it is because she had started to open her heart for this beast.


    Seeing how welcome TianTian is made LiMingHu''s heart filled with warmness. It was different than before... the kiss was not too passionate but soft... The beast was somehow became very gentle, maybe it was because his wound so he couldn''t too be more active, but maybe because he just wanted to embrace this moment...it comforted TianTian and it made they couldn''t stop kissing for quite a long minutes...


    Then when the both of them separated their lips... and just stared to each others deeply... they smiled and laughed, no words needed, it just they seemed felt the same happiness.


    LiMingHu then stroke TianTian''s face softly...and kissed her again...


    He knew now for sure that TianTian was finally accept his feeling...and finally he got her...


    but suddenly...LiMingHu stopped kissing her, he leaned back away from TianTian...and looked at TianTian worriedly. TianTian was also felt back on earth again, in a minute, her face blushed as she just realized what she just did...although she was also confused to see the beast who stopped the kissing first, not her. And now LiMingHu''s face seemed worry about something...


    "Are...you okay?" she asked.


    "Yea..yeah, I think we are done here..." LiMingHu stood up and smiled to TianTian, " I sudden remember that I had some works to do...and...you can take a rest..."


    LiMingHu put his cloth on and then gave a peck on TianTian''s forehead before he walked to his office room.


    "ow...ok"


    TianTian somehow felt a little disappointing, she didn''t expect their moment will end this soon. She wanted to hold him stay but she didn''t dare... she was too shy to do that...


    After a few steps, LiMingHu turned around and asked to TianTian with smile,


    "Do you want to eat with me later? after my work finished..."


    "yeah...sure..." TianTian was really confuse why she still felt nervous.


    "Good" LiMingHu smiled and then he walked to his room, leaving TianTian who was still felt unease with this suddenly polite behaved-beast. Although she was quite warmed and happy to see this side of the beast.


    But what TianTian didn''t know was in a flash just now, there was a scary thought came into LiMingHu''s mind... Entering his office, LiMingHu tried to calm himself...


    Yes, he was happy, extremely happy kissing TianTian and also scared... The warning came into his mind...''I believe you, Son... Don''t disappointing me and ShuEr... '' the words President Sam sudden was sounding in his mind, make him questioning himself,


    ''Should I let her go before too late?!''


    He knew for sure, now he couldn''t let TianTian go...not after TianTian has starting giving her heart to him...


    ''I want to protect her...no matter what cost it will be...'' but the ''responsible chain'' which tied him too long...it''s not that easy to be broken.


    And soon the beast had drown deeply into his thinking for hours and then at the same time YuFang called him about work issues...The king was finally really need to work till late.


    Meanwhile TianTian decided to spend the time by helping Aunt Ma to prepare lunch...But when the lunch time had passed and LiMingHu didn''t come out from the office room, TianTian finally decided to deliver the food to LiMingHu''s room...


    "Just put there..." TianTian learned that when he works, LiMingHu could be such a workaholic...he could forgot to eat at all until the work was done...TianTian didn''t want to bother him, so she just put the food and then walked slowly and looked around the room.


    That was the first time TianTian entered the room. She felt learning more about LiMingHu from any things in his room...so she stay a little while there. There were some old photos that put inside a glass shelf... one of them were the family photo that had his parents and small version of LiMingHu .


    ''He was already handsome when he was a little...his parents were also good-looking...such a good genetic..."


    LiMingHu noticed that TianTian still at room and stared at his family photo, so he stopped working and approached TianTian,


    "What do you see?" He asked softly.


    "You looks cute when you were little...I wonder why this cute boy can grow become a beast like you?..." Teased TianTian. But it seemed not a right time, because LiMingHu could not happy every time he saw the photo. TianTian paused, she regretted to mention it, she then remembered Aunt Ma ever told her how LiMingHu lost his parents, he must be always sad to see this photo...


    "I am sorry...I should not mention..."


    TianTian moved backward, away from the photo.


    LiMingHu took the photo and stared on it with a strong belonging feeling,


    "... My parents...they were the best parents I ever had in the world..." LiMingHu didn''t usually able to talk about his parents to anyone...but that night, he wanted to share his story with TianTian... TianTian noticed it, so she braved herself to ask, she also wanted to know more about him.


    "What do they like?"


    "My Dad...he was the smartest man I know, he taught me many things, such as riding bicycle...although he was busy, he always managed to take me to the theme park or game station every my birthday....My Mom, she was a very gentle woman that I know in the world, she loves to read book for me every night... sometimes she sang a lullaby too..." LiMingHu''s mind kept recalling his memories with his Dad and Mom...he remembered that he just a normal happy boy at that time.


    "They sound like a lovely parents..."


    But the moments didn''t stay longer, the accident...burning...fear suddenly crushing over his mind, and leaving a deep sadness in him...


    "Yes, they are...but they were gone now..."


    While LiMingHu put back the photo, he remembered how a fire that day took his parents away and left him alone...then he learned about the cruel world and decided to grow as a beast to able continue living in this world... his face shown a deep sorrow.


    TianTian couldn''t imagine what LiMingHu had been through in his youth life... Seeing the sorrow expression of the beast, she knew no words could she said to comfort him...but she wanted to comfort him, so she bravely touched LiMingHu''s hand, LiMingHu looked at her,...


    "I...just don''t want you to be sad...I know there''s no word can take away what you feel...but please remember that you are not alone..." TianTian kept stared on him sincerely, she prayed in her heart and hoped that she could took the sadness burden in him into her... she felt that she was willing to take all sadness he had..."I ...I am here with you.." She could say anything else than what she was feeling right now...


    LiMingHu felt warmth again with TianTian''s words... He held TianTian''s hand, stroke it gently, even played with her fingers.


    "Having you beside me now is enough to make me happy..." he continued in his mind...'' forever...''


    TianTian didn''t move, she didn''t want to..


    she felt wanna to be more closer even....She let the beast''s hand touching her face...''If the time can be freeze''


    "TianTian..."


    "Hm?" TianTian raised her face toward LiMingHu when be called, she then realized than LiMingHu had closing his face to her, he was going to kiss her again... at least that what TianTian thought, so she prepared, she closed her eyes...


    But turned out, LiMingHu hugged her tightly, embracing her body like someone who desperate to be loved... "Do you really mean it?." he whispered..."to be with me...?... Can you just be with me forever...?"


    TianTian quite awaked when hearing that question, she was also questioning herself...''Do I?'' She just learned these soft sides of the beast and it just immediately melting her heart. But her logic kicked and shouted inside ''Don''t you remember who he is? THE BEAST....Hey, he kidnapped you! Remember????'' Between logic and feeling, they seemed kept fighting to each other in your mind.


    Nevertheless, TianTian lifted up her hands around LiMingHu''s back, and patted him gently- Her feeling was the winner... so she whispered back softly but sure,


    "I do... I want to be with you .." - in her mind, ''forever, i hope...''


    LiMingHu never felt so happy when he heard that. He looked to Tian-Tian again, showed his charming smile, which TianTian never noticed before- and without giving Tian-Tian time to be ready, the king had kissed her gentle but also passionately. Shock a little bit, but Tian-Tian welcomed the kiss happily just not until the beast''s hand started touching up her body. Tian-Tian released her self...she might opened her heart, but it didn''t mean she was ready for any further body contact.


    Her face had blushed so red...


    "Ehm...its getting late right now...I...I think I need to go back to my room..." she looked to the king, considering his feeling...would he allow her to go or...?


    Although LiMingHu still wanted to embrace her, but he knew he didn''t want to force her anymore like before... he doesn''t want to ruin the gentle and warmth atmosphere between them.


    "It''s okay..." Once again the king whispered to TianTian''s ears, "This time I will wait till you''re ready...whenever you want..." TianTian felt her heart jumped out,


    she went backwardly, smiled awkwardly,


    "Hah...I see...okay..."


    TianTian then walked toward the door, but just before she touched the door knob, she felt curious and turned back,


    "Are you... planning to work all night?"


    "No....just a little bit more...after its done, I also go to sleep..."


    "Hm..." Seeing TianTian hesitated to say anything else, LiMingHu can''t help not to tease her...


    "Or...do you want to wait for me so we can sleep together later?"


    "Of course not...." TianTian blushed, "Good night, I''ll going to sleep now..." TianTian rushed out from the room.


    Behind the door of LiMingHu''s room that she just closed...TianTian startled to herself, ''What''s wrong with me...it just one day, and I''m already don''t want to be separated from him.... and I started to worry about he kept busy till late....and more than that I kind felt regretted to stop the kissing just now... its dangerous...''


    TianTian walked back to her room and mumbling to herself how she needed to restrain herself to do stupid things, she remembered how many times she listened to WenWen''s love stories... at that time, she felt love expressions that WenWen did were too absurd and unrealistic, she mocked them. But now it started happening to herself....so she mumbled that she wouldn''t do anything stupid like WenWen did. Now she sighed...


    ''I never know that love can be also this scary....''

 Chapter 31 - Sweet Moment (2)

    In TianTian''s memory, present time,


    ''Those seven days were my most happiness time and also my most agony time...I want to forget it but I can''t...''


    A tear flows from sides of her face as the past flashes back in her mind...


    (In the Past)


    *Buk* TianTian smashed lightly a paper onto the dinner table in front of LiMingHu who just in the middle of enjoying his morning coffee...


    "What is this?" He took a look the paper, smiling, seeing TianTian so enthusiastic in that morning...


    "That...is the list of what will we do in this week..." said TianTian with a little proud, ''All night without sleep I spent to make that plan...it is a perfect plan..." although the other reason why she couldn''t sleep was because of the embracing kiss they had last night.


    "Hm...let see..." LiMingHu read out what was written on the paper: exercising by riding bicycle, go to a theme park, go to a game station, go to a library...


    LiMingHu freezed as he realized something in TianTian''s weekend plan...all the activities were the same activities he had with his parents in the past, which he just told to her last night. Those activities he never had to do again since he lost his parents so he now didn''t sure how to react with TianTian''s plan.


    Seeing the beast''s face expression, TianTian started to doubt her plan... she was indeed purposely chose the same activities from LiMingHu''s past but not to hurt him...otherwise, she wanted to create a new happy moments over the sad memories. By that, maybe LiMingHu would not too sad anymore remembering his parents. But she could be wrong...how if it even hurt him more? Well, TianTian believed she could shown to LiMingHu how to overcome the sad memories... like when she lost her grandpa...at first, she didn''t want to close with anything that can remind her to her grandpa but her mother reminded her, "Grandpa will always with us in our memories... if we throw all the memories about him because of the sadness, then he will really ''gone''...that''s why we need to remember him in happiness, then he will keep ''alive'' in us..." then she and entire family keep doing anything that Grandpa usually do with them, she was no longer sad and hurt remembering Grandpa... and now she want LiMingHu also feel the same about his parents.


    "Yesterday...you promise that you will do what I want..."


    "Yes...I indeed promise..." LiMingHu hesitated, he glanced to TianTian who looked happy about the plan and he knew for sure, either TianTian planned to hurt him or not, he just can''t reject her...


    he sighed but smiling...


    "Alright, let''s do what you want..."


    The face of TianTian got brighten,


    "Then let''s start from the top of the list..."


    And there was it, a full week filled just to do the list...


    *Riding bikes together...*


    As a romantic soul, TianTian pictured a romantic scene would happened as a couple riding bikes together, like in drama... yeah, turned out in reality, it was not that sweet....


    Different than TianTian; LiMingHu, the king has a competitive soul... Cause of a long time he skipped in his life, at the first he looked awkward in riding bike, then it made him upset, TianTian teased him by racing him, leaving him behind...beside...its not every day you can beat the king...it pleasured TianTian somehow...


    But not too long, as the king gained his skill on again, he rushed and left TianTian behind and laughing... it''s clearly unpleasant and woke up TianTian''s competitive soul along...


    Both of them were finally being too serious to compete...and seemed forget that they supposed to be a couple, yet both of them were still enjoying the moment.


    When they reached the sea side, TianTian had stopped his bike... LiMingHu who was ahead some distance from her, realized it and then returned to TianTian''s side , giving the curious look.


    "I like to see the waves...do you mind if we stay here for a while?"


    No words, LiMingHu just nodded and then TianTian, took off her shoes, run with her bare feet, excitedly to the coast.


    "It''s beautifulll..." She shouted, not clear to who...


    The king taught that TianTian is more beautiful in the view...


    "Yes, it is beautiful..."


    TianTian then sudden sat on the sand, and started to tell LiMingHu who also sat beside TianTian,


    "My family loved to go to the beach during holiday...when I was little, I often played sand or beach ball with my brothers...it was so fun..."


    TianTian recalled the memory and shared to the King...whom she never expected to sit and listen attentively... at the end of her story, she realized it was just her who kept talking, she felt awkward,


    "How...bout you? Any memories about beach?"


    LiMingHu digged his memories... No much he could shared comparing TianTian''s family experience, he didn''t too remember his childhood memory when his parents were still around. If there was one he could remember...it was when he accompanied ShuShu on holidays- ShuShu was also loved sea but because of her weak body, she was easily tired and ever once almost drowned if LiMingHu didn''t immediately saved her. This was not kind of story he would shared happily to TianTian,


    "Not really...I am too busy to come here...beside there is nothing much can you do alone here..."


    TianTian felt a little guilty for boasting about her happy memories of family...she then just leaning her head on LiMingHu''s shoulder. "Maybe next time, you can join my family vacation...it will be fun"


    "Really? With all your family? your brothers? Doesn''t it seem you try to throw me to the sea?" LiMingHu chuckles,


    "Ow, come on..my brothers won''t that bad...once they know you...i believe they will like you...well...as long you can be kind to them..." LiMingHu kept laughing, hearing the unsure tone in TianTian''s voice.


    "Yeah, maybe..." the King smiled... LiMingHu could imagined when he brought TianTian''s back to the brothers only just for taking her again in marriage.


    ''Marriage?!'' Such a silly idea... sudden the smile disappeared from LiMingHu''s face and TianTian noticed it, she then woke up and splashed water purposely to the king''s face.


    This childish mischievous act surprised LiMingHu but didn''t make him angry as he looked to the brighting laughing on TianTian''s face.


    "You look always seriouss...


    sometimes its okay to stop thinking and just feel fun...just enjoy this moment..." shouted TianTian louder to defeat the sound of sea wave...and she was also prepared of what would be the reaction of the beast.


    LiMingHu felt ease, TianTian''s words seemed wiping all worried or whatever he was thinking just now. That''s right, he just want to enjoy this moment with TianTian.


    So, they like turned back to become two mischievous children; LiMingHu tried to revenge, splashed water to TianTian and tried to catch her. It was a perfect scene of two lovers playing at the beach...


    When TianTian tired, she finally laid down on the beach, she let LiMingHu to lay down beside her... they laughed sincerely...


    "Hahaha...hahaha... Seriously, you are the toughest little bunny I ever met..." teased the beast.


    "Sure it is...even my brothers cannot catch me easily...and by the way, don''t call me little bunny, I am not little bunny!" protested TianTian but not seriously mad.


    "You are...you such a small girl like a little bunny... and even hitting like the little one...but..." Although LiMingHu kept talking while looking to the sky, maybe because of happiness, he felt at this moment he could say anything honestly...he wanted to say what he was thinking about TianTian for entire time....he sudden chuckled a little bit, "I always wondering how you can be so strong, Tian Tian? ...You dared to challenge me at the first time we met, you''re not even scared to me..and never obedient too...its frustrated me seriously... Why don''t you scared of me?"


    TianTian couldn''t answer it immediately, actually she was scared, deeply.... but once she chose to confront the beast and more knowing him...she was no longer scared now...


    "Why would I? You just an ordinary man...you are not gods... LiMingHu , you just...just like a small little kitten in a giant body of beast!" That''s what she really felt about LiMingHu, the king of beast kingdom.


    LiMingHu''s eyes opened widely when he heard what TianTian said, he then laughed a loud...


    "Hahahaha...I am a kitten? Hahahahaha...there''s never one said...me as a kitten.... Hahahaha...just you..."


    It was true, no one dared to call him as a kitten, if anyone else said that, he might got offended and furious...they might lose their life at once.


    It was embarrassing for TianTian, she didn''t expected to get that kind of reaction from LiMingHu, but what''s more surprising her was what the beast said next,


    "...and...that''s why I love you so much...hahaha"


    ''...love you so much'' The words came out so naturally that it sounded sincerely from the beast. TianTian couldn''t say anything else, she felt her heart started to beat so fast.


    The next second, LiMingHu realized what he just said, and also that TianTian became so intensed by his words. He rolled over on her, stared to her wide eyes.


    "I...I love you...!" The way LiMingHu said was not like he is confessing to TianTian...but it was more that he said it to himself. By looking at TianTian, he confirmed his feeling again, ''Yes, I love this girl, definitely, I love her!'' So the next he did was kissing TianTian passionately.


    And TianTian...


    who usually always aware with surrounding;


    But this time, she just followed the flow of passion, under the spell of love words... letting the beast''s tongue conquered her mouth...again...and again.


    Till her conscious kicked in, when LiMingHu freed her lips and kept looking into her eyes intensely... TianTian almost sure she could read the beast''s mind or like they talked in telepathy,


    ''TianTian, I want you...completely!'' His eyes widely asking...


    ''No! Not here...'' TianTian shook her head firmly, she pushed the beast a little bit far away from her.


    ''Now you...reject me again...?'' A slide of disappointing occured on his look.


    LiMingHu sighed, stood up slowly.


    TianTian felt awful...then she also stood up, and surprising the beast by kissing his cheek and then said softly,


    "Maybe...later...." With a blushed face, TianTian turned to her bike without waiting for LiMingHu''s reaction.


    LiMingHu who was dumb fooled for a moment, just realizing the meaning of TianTian''s words, with happily rushing to his bike, riding side by side with TianTian''s bike... this time, which finally could being seen like the couple that bikes together romantically.


    When they returned to the house...TianTian decided to take the shower first and so did the king. But after taking shower, LiMingHu had no intention to forgetting what TianTian had said so just by covered by towel on his bottom body, LiMingHu waited impatiently on Tian Tian''s bed.


    TianTian was so surprised to find the beast had laid comfortably on the bed as she came out from the restroom. When she took a bath, she caught herself a dilemma, she didn''t know what kind of nerve which let her said that ''sign'' to the beast... she hoped that LiMingHu didn''t hear it or didn''t get what she mean...because she was still scared truly, because this kind of relationship was too wild for her...at the moment in the beach, she felt drown with adrenaline... she wanted to be wild with him, following her feeling...but still, she was scared...because she knew once she did it, there wouldn''t be a turning back way.


    And now, what should she do...?


    The beast was on the bed, so ready to flavour his meat...he smiled widely and his entire body invited her to come to him.


    TianTian still hesitated to come forward. She just stood in front of bathroom door.


    LiMingHu then rose from the bed, walked closer to TianTian, felt unsure seeing TianTian stayed still.


    The closer he was, TianTian became more nervous. Till the beast just in front a step from her.


    "You..don''t want to?" asked LiMingHu gently; but his look - TianTian could see a glance of disappointing look. She started felt awful, because she was the one who brought this up...and she must honest, that she wanted it too so badly...it just...this was her first...she didn''t have any experience about it and what so ever. Could it go well? Would everything be fine?


    "Its okay if you don''t want..I won''t force you anymore.." Although he wanted it so badly; the king decided to be more gentleman. He found how odd that he could control his beast for this moment...He rather killed his inner beast than hurting TianTian''s feeling.


    The kind words from the LiMingHu made TianTian felt warmth; she then felt more brave... her hands slowly touched LiMingHu''s broad chest which still wrapped with bandage.


    "It..s my first...just...please be gentle..." She tucked her head on LiMingHu''s chest too, she couldn''t look to LiMingHu''s face because she felt her face must be as red as tomato right now after saying that cheesy line...


    And by that words from TianTian, it triggered the beast in LiMingHu to take control of his body back... he right away carried TianTian up with his two strong arms and laid her down gently on the bed...


    He started kissing TianTian gently but slowly it changed became a wild deep kissing... while his hands, this time freely exploring TianTian''s body. And every touch she received, it made her body felt oddly hot and good... especially when LiMingHu managed to remove the towel that covered TianTian''s body. When the beast saw the entire naked body of the little bunny, what a small yet attractive bosoms she has... he didn''t hesitate to lick and suck them, it made TianTian moaned instantly,


    "Ahh...ahh" His fingers also joined to play with them.


    "Ahhh...it''s feel weird....stop..."


    "TianTian...your body....so beautiful,.....ummm" LiMingHu kissed her again while his right fingers kept playing with her bosom and his other fingers started to find the entering of her.


    He then started kissing Tian2''s body, from her neck, her collar bones, her bosoms, her abs, her tight and even her pussy, preparing it to welcome his thing.


    "No...ahh...stop...aah...don''t go there..ahhh...its...its dirty.." TianTian begged in her moans.


    The beast didn''t just ignore TianTian''s words but he even more vigorously enjoying her pussy...He licked and licked....and he then inserted his finger, fingering the vagina till its completely wet ...


    "I always want to try this...I heard it will make you feel good..." LiMingHu whispered to TianTian''s red ear, and he kept fingering more deeply.


    "Aaahh...ahhh...aaaaaahhhh" TianTian just had her first orgasm when the beast''s finger successfully touching her inner sensitive area...


    "Is it good?"


    "Aaahh...yes...yes...aahh"


    LiMingHu glad his first performance was not disappointing, ...


    "Uughh.."


    Part of the beast''s body also became hot and hard...TianTian glanced to it when LiMingHu opened her thighs widely...the thing had touched her opening...she never saw that man''s thing could be so big and rigid like his. And she knew it means that it was ready to entering her,...she became shy and scared at once,


    "No...its gonna hurt.."


    "Don''t worry...ughh...I will gentle..."


    "Nooo...aahh...it won''t fit"


    "...Uugh, yours already wet...its ready...I want to...uuugh come in..."


    As the beast kept preparing TianTian''s body to welcome his cock... he kept kissing TianTian as he penetrating it...


    "Ahhh..AHhHhh" TianTian felt a pleasure pain... the kissing and the hands which kept playing with her nipples giving her a high ecstatic pleasure, helping her to able to confront her pain as the beast kept thrusting his cock,


    "Aaahhhhhhh...aah...ahh...ahh." TianTian moaned loudly as her body was being shook by the beast''s body over and over again


    "...ah...TianTian...I love you"


    As like a harmony rhythm, their body became one and they reached the climax together.


    TianTian could felt something warm had flowing inside her...


    It was amazing and undescribed experience for TianTian... And when she thought it was over, the beast still continuing kissing her body,


    "Are...we done?"


    The beast smiled in lust,


    Now as he just tasted the pleasure of sex completely for his entire life- one time was surely not enough for him...


    "No...we aren''t done yet...I just starting..."


    "Wh..what?..No...ahhh..ahhh"


    The pleasure came and went as the beast repeated his movements many times till day had changed.


    TianTian was completely under his control, she only could protested with her mouth weakly,


    "...you...ahhh....beast...!!!"
