sanzu haruchiyo, a criminal and a member of bonten just opened up his own business, an underground fight club. as his business expands day by day, this gorgeous woman walks into the club with a flyer in her hand.
little did he know, this woman is go...
A month later "Hello, how may I help you this evening?" I grin at my customers who has been staring at me like a piece of meal. "Can I get the #4 meal?"
I note it down on my notepad with a nod. "Yes, is that all?" I ask. "A couple of beers as well." A few of them answer. "Sure thing, I'll be back with it shortly."
Once I disappear to the corner to the bar, I waited for the bartender to finish up with a customer.
"Here is your bill, thank you." One of the bartender states to a customer when she hand the older man his receipt.
He brushes his finger against hers when he grabs his receipt, "Thank you, hoping to see you again." He winks at her then leaves.
I watch him exit until his form disappears. "Disgusting." She muttered under her breath. I playfully roll my eyes and ordered 4 bottles of beer.
"4 beers for table 10." She nods and slides the tray towards me and I thanked her.
When I place the 3 beers down on the table 10, a scream catches everyone's attention. It belonged to Suki.
Suki's voice was loud and clear from fear. Without hesitation, I approach the group of crowd that's surrounding the scene.
She is being dragged to the restroom so I rush over with the last bottle of beer in my hand. "Hey!" I hear one of the men from Table 10 shout for taking their beer with me.
"Let go of me!" Suki resists and pulls back from being dragged into the restroom. Closer and closer, I finally place a hand on the man's forearm with a grip.
Once he turns back to look at me, his expressions change. He quickly lets Suki go, "Well, aren't you a pretty one?" He says and takes a step towards me.
He takes a look at my body with a smirk, "You're a fine woman, why don't you come with me?" He whispers into my ear.
He wraps his disgusting hand around my forearm as Suki hides behind me, "Pathetic aren't you? Can't get girls at the club and you think dragging women here into the restroom without their consent will make you god?" A smirk form on the end of my lips.
"What did you call me-" Before he could put his arms around my neck to choke me, the bottle I've been hiding behind me, I smash the glass on his head so hard, it shattered.
He stands glaring at me then eventually lose consciousness after blood start to stream down his face.
"Disgusting." I mumbled and throw the bottle down to walk away to the employee room. When I find an empty and quiet room to pick out the glass that pierced my skin after smashing it against the guy's head, I hear the door unlocks.
Footsteps approach me and halts when it towers over me, "Suki, you don't-" I stand up to tell her how I was feeling but it wasn't her.
Sanzu.
His blue ocean eyes stares into mines with admiration, "That was quite a show, sapphire." He compliments. The end of his lips curves upwards showing his dimples.
Somewhere in my lower abdomen made me feel a weird sensation, "Are you going to fire me?" I ask. The blood start to drip down to the floor and it caught his attention.
He looks down at my hand and gesture me to sit. "No." He answers and take his blazer off. He hangs it on the head of the chair I'm sitting on and walks over to the side table.
He grabs a first aid kit somewhere in a dresser and pulls a chair that's in the corner of the room to sit across from me.
He unbuttons his shirt cuffs and roll it up to his forearms. His exposed masculine arms greets me and I watch his fingers open the first aid kit.
Just imagining what his fingers can do to me made me instantly flush. Stop it. "Give me your hand." He commands in the most gentle way.
I do as I was told, "Good girl." He praises. My stomach does flips and I stay silent as my face turn hot. "Are you mad at me at all?" I ask.
He shakes his head as he picks out the glass with a tweezer, "Why would I be?" He says.
"I don't know. I assume you to be because my old boss got mad at me for defending myself when I was being harassed. That's why I left, well more like fired." I explained.
He looks up at me and grin, "This is the most you've been opened to me. Progress, sapphire." He says as he go back to treating my wound.
My brows furrowed with confusion, "Sapphire?" I ask. He hums in response, "My name for you." He responds.
When he finishes up picking the glass out, he grabs the alcohol wipes and wipe my hand down. I hiss in pain and he blows onto my skin to ease the pain. That's kind of attractive.
Once he was done, he applies the ointment then wraps the wound up with the elastic band. "Why the name sapphire? We're not close." I ask and waited for his answer.
He finally looks up to look at my eyes, "Because your eyes are beautiful like Sapphire. Whenever I look at your eyes, I always get lost in them. It doesn't matter if we're close or not. I like the name for you." He admits.
It made me want to scoff at him but my stomach flips again instead but I try to keep calm, "Well, how can I thank you?" I ask as I stand up.
He stands as well and grab his blazer, "Let me take you out on a date." He responds. My eyes grow wide with surprise, "A date?" I question.
