I sat down on the leather couch, sipping the cocktail I held in my hand as I lean back.
The executives of Bonten gather here once again after another successful mission, always having the VIP Lounge reserved fpr us because I owned this club anyway.
On my left, my brother's annoying voice could be heard as he flirted with the woman sat on his lap. On the other side, Sanzu's incoherent babbles about traitors could be heard as he popped another pill in his mouth. Either that or he's snorting crack through his nose.
'He's always on crack anyway, regardless if there's a celebration or not...'
In the far corner, Takeomi was quietly smoking while Mochi was on his phone -possibly playing candy crush. Kakucho was absent, surprisingly.
This occasion wasn't special, no. We already had countless victories in our missions, and these celebrations were probably just another excuse to enjoy themselves - talking about Bontens crackwhore here.
What made this night important was that this was one of the rare nights Mikey decided to join us. He wasn't here yet though.
So I stay silent on my seat, drowning in my own thoughts to blur out the noises that surrounded me - mainly the noise Ran made while he was making out with the random hooker.
My thoughts drift to what happened last month. The night I fell unconscious on the floor after some woman decided that she was better than me and hit me.
The memory still pissed me off, honestly. I haven't seen the woman since and I was too busy to go look for her. It bothered me how the memory of her lingered in my mind, along with the fact that I let my guard down that night and let some woman attack me.
'I really should've twisted her neck the moment I saw her on my spot.'
I let out an aggravated sigh as I level my head to sip my drink. As soon as I did, Mikey was already walking towards us.
Ran shooed the woman on his lap away now that Mikey was here and Sanzu had miraculously put down his stock of crack on the table.
Mikey's dead eyes scan us to see if we were complete, a quiet hum coming out of his liod when he realizes Bontens Number 3 wasn't present tonight. I guess he brushed it off, clearing his throat and capturing everyone's attention before speaking to us.
"I brought a client over." He said, cold voice echoing in the room because no one dared to talk over the man.
"They're a powerful asset to us, there should be a lot of benefits with them being a part of Bonten."
"I gave them the position of an executive, meaning they're given a position equal to all of yours." He spoke more sternly this time, not wanting any foul play or infights in Bonten.
"They should be here about any minute now." Mikey leaned on the table, elbows resting on the surface while his head hung low.
After that, everyone was back to being occupied with their own activities - except for my brother who was now just smoking after shooing his little hooker away.
I wasn't really interested in meeting the newcomer, but I wondered how powerful they had to be to immediately be granted the executive position.
"Lost in thought again, Rin?" I heard Ran mutter as his long arms rested on the back of the leather couch.
"Just bored." I sighed, shifting in my seat so my elbows rested on my legs and my head hanging low.
I scan the place and took note of how everyone didn't really care for the arrival of the new executive. It's unprofessional for them to arrive this late in the first meeting, in my opinion.
The sounds of the nightclub drowned out any other noise, my hearing senses heightening as I become sort of hyper-aware of my surroundings.
In some corner of the room I heard heels clacking, slowly getting louder and nearer with each step.
The steps came to a halt once a familiar pair of the expensive, red-bottomed Christian Louboutins stood right in front of me.
My body becomes tense, gaze slowly trailing up the stranger in front of me.
"Meet your new executive." Mikey muttered, everyone's attention focusing on the newcomer.
"The CEO of S.L. Enterprises and your new colleague. Get along."
I froze once I saw their face, annoyance taking over me. She had that same shit-eating grin on her red lips as she stoop infront of me, looking down at me as if I was prey.
It was her.
"Pleasure to meet all of you. I hope we get along." She muttered the last part, eyeing me with pride and and irritation all ay the same time.
I wanted you to leave in that moment. I couldn't bare the thought of you near me. I couldn't accept that there would be consequences if I finished you off now.
It's all too ironic when I look back at it.
Because now I spend my days waiting for you to return to my arms.
