Rowan woke up feeling less pain than the previous week, her eyes fell on the sleeping man sitting on her window seat, his head hung in an uncomfortable manner.

"Park fucking Sunghoon-" the girl mumbled as she walked over to the male, gently shaking him awake.

"I told you- I don't need security- I left Riki's room for a reason-" Rowan softly said as the male rubbed his eyes. "Riki's orders, I don't want to put up with his bullshit so I stayed-" Sunghoon reasoned.

"You could've slept on my bed- it's really not that big of a deal" Rowan simply said as Sunghoon facepalmed "It's like you want to get me killed- anyways- brush your teeth your breath stinks-" Sunghoon mumbled as he left the room, the massive gun skidding across the floor as he dragged it out, half-asleep.

After 3 to four hours of procrastinating and finally getting out of bed to start her day, the girl grabbed her car keys slipping on trainers.

"And where the fuck are you off to?" Riki asked as he leaned against the doorway "Oh me? I was just going to- None of your mother fucking business town~" Rowan sarcastically said.

"Hmm. so we're starting to get a little too comfortable around me are we?" Riki asked as he pulled out a dagger with Rowan's name and many pretty designs encrypted into the blade.

"Yeah you buy all these weapons with your dear fiancee's name encrypted into them and yet you've never, once laid a single finger on me." Rowan goaded knowing very well that she was poking at his irascibility.

The male chuckled at her comment "Aww... is my darling fiancee craving my touch?" Riki smirked as he took threatening steps toward her... Out of instinct, the girl immediately backed away, her back hitting the cupboard behind her.

Riki trailed his finger, threateningly slowly down her face, his touch as light as a feather, but pretty eerie... his finger trailed down to her jaw to her neck and finally stopped at her shoulder. 

"Hmm... You seem pretty tense Darling... a second ago weren't you running that pretty little mouth at me?" Riki asked, a smirk playing on his lips.

Rowan smacked his hand off as she glared up at the taller figure "You might not want to draw blood on me, but if you keep this bitchy attitude up, trust me, that shiny dagger of yours will be stabbed right through your pretty skull." Rowan warned.

"Is that so... Show me what you can do then tiny." Riki was goading her, but the girl caught him off guard as she grabbed his dagger, and just as she pointed it at his neck, he grabbed her wrist, turned her around, and forced the blade before her neck.

"Oh, Darling... is that seriously the best you can do?... next time you try to threaten me, make sure you learned something above the amateur level." Riki smiled, cockily as he pulled away from her.

. . .

With many guards trailing behind her, Rowan found herself earning many whispers and stares, this time it wasn't for her miniskirts or supposedly slutty tops topped off with so much jewelry, it was purely because of the multiple men in uniform, looking as if they had just jumped out of the matrix.

Well, lucky for her, she was too used to the gossip and the shit-talk behind her back, so the girl went about her day, shopping at multiple clothing stores, unbothered by the men following her around like an army of ants.

"Oh, you boys want anything to eat or drink?" Rowan asked as they kindly declined the offer "Y'all crazy, you've been walking around me, paranoid for the past 5 hours and we come to the food court to the smell of so much food worth craving for only for y'all to decline?" Rowan asked, quite shocked.

"Oh no- you got us wrong, we already bought some food while you were shopping-" One of the guards reasoned. "Oh so that's why there was only half of u with me... it makes sense-" Rowan shrugged

"I think I got enough to help me get through a few months- Ok home time!" Rowan smiled, walking back to the car.  The guards did find it shocking, the girl was more composed and unbothered by their vivid presence, but given her hatred for Riki, they still remained alert.

Too bad they weren't alert enough to notice a certain stalker sneak multiple pictures as well as a strand or 3 of her hair...

. . .

Riki slapped a few files on his desk as the others stared at the ground in shame "What is this fucking shit?!" Riki asked, pissed.

"This fucker knows who she fucking is, through and through, they didn't miss a single fucking detail, even shit I don't know about her. You call yourself guards?!" Riki complained.

"Jungwon- track whoever did this shit. Jake, drag him to the basement and cuff him down. Whether it's a mere stalker, family rival, or whatever the fuck I want this fucker now." Riki warned as he left his office, and entered the kitchen.

"F-" Rowan winced as she leaned over the table, pain written all over her face. The male walked up to her somewhat, holding her up as he lifted her shirt to examine the wound.

"It's getting better... what are you doing downstairs at this hour?!" Riki asked as he poured himself a glass of whiskey, pouring the girl some as well.

"I couldn't get any sleep- so I played a little game, overtime and I'm still not tired-" Rowan said as she swirled the glass, gulping the whole glass down as Riki stared at her in shock.

"What?- oh Ahh it burns-" Rowan faked as Riki blinked "Right I forgot you used to drink underage- of course, you're used to it-" Riki sighed. "I've never seen you look not col and not angry before-" Rowan randomly admitted 

"Kay. From now on you can't go out. Some mother fucker stalked your ass and sent me a threat. with the wedding in only a few days, you need to lay low." Riki warned as Rowan was already drunk, 3 empty bottles beside her.

"Yessirrrrr- gimme this- ok byeee-" Rowan drunkenly giggled as she hugged her Jack Daniel's bottle, limping up the stairs with Riki's guidance.
