Kain's POV:
I've been trying to handle these fucking idiots all morning long, wondering how the hell you can just "lose track" of a 500 thousand dollar shipment.
I can't fucking stand people.

I had to call over two of my guys to the house, trying to figure out why nobody seems to know where my shit is.
And on top of that, Drea's been out all morning god knows where and it's pissing me off more than it should.

"This was supposed to be tracked every step of the way and I wanted you all waiting exactly when it arrived." I curse, rubbing my head.

"We arrived at the port just after the drop off, and there wasn't anything to be found. I swear-"
Don't fucking kill anyone today.

"I don't really give a fuck who screwed this up or what the hell happened. I want you both to get the fuck up and fix it. I can't believe I'm dealing with this shit right now"
I run my fingers through my hair, turning around to see Drea walk into the kitchen, her lips parted softly.
Shit.

"Um- I'll just go upstairs then..." she mumbles, moving to turn away.
"No. You stay. You two- leave. Figure this out."
The two men stand still, looking back and forth between me and Drea like a couple of dumbfounded idiots.
"I said move, not stare at her like an ass." I grit out and they quickly head out the door, leaving Drea and I.

I look back at her and she takes a deep breath, trying to keep her composure.
She already seeing me as a fucking criminal- this is the last thing I needed her to witness.

"I'm sorry. I usually don't have people come to my house. You didn't have to see that." I sigh

She rolls her eyes at me.
Fucking brat, as always.
"I don't like you Kain but I'm not fucking naive. It's your house. Do what you please."

"I know you don't like what I do. You live here now and you shouldn't have to deal with it just because it's my house." I step closer to her and she narrows her eyes at me.
Fuck she looks good when she's mad.

"I couldn't care less what you do with yourself Kain, don't get it confused. I don't like you cause you got my brother involved in your little bullshit." She crosses her arms in front of her, trying to seem more intimidating but all it does it push her tits up perfectly.
I fight back a grin.

"Oh I think you hate me way too much to not care about me Drea..." I step closer again, watching the sassy remark form on her lips before I cut her off.
"And just a reminder, my little bullshit is what got you and your brother out of that god forsaken town. And the money your brother made working with me? That's what pays for your college tuition princess. So I'd watch that pretty mouth of yours before you go judging my lifestyle." I grin, watching the fire grow behind her eyes.

"Fuck you Kain." She spits back at me, turning to walk off to her room.
"I bet you want to princess" I call out from behind her, loving the glare I get in return.

•••

Almost the entire day has gone by and she's yet to leave her room since our conversation.
It was nearly 8 and I had just finished making some dinner.
She might hate me but she still has to fucking eat.

I head upstairs, knocking on her door.
No response.

I wait a few seconds before opening the door, watching as her eyes immediately narrow when they meet mine.
Still feeling feisty huh princess?

"Come on, there's food downstairs." I tell her, nudging my head for her to follow me.
She rolls her eyes, looking back down at her laptop.
It's getting real tempting to fix that attitude of yours lately.
"Leave. I'm not hungry." She tells me, shooing me away with her hand.

"Bullshit." I say, stepping into her room. She raises a brow at me, her frustration rising.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah princess. I know you haven't eaten anything all day. You're probably starving. Just get up off your stubborn ass and eat something." I step closer, not moving till she gets up.

"Stop trying to be intimidating Kain. You look like a fucking idiot." She smirks.
This unbelievable woman.

I lean down, grabbing her legs as I throw her over my shoulder and carry her out of her room as she kicks and curses me out.
I seem to keep finding myself in this position...
"Kain! Put me the fuck down right now or-!"
"You always have to be so fucking stubborn don't you? You're going to sit the fuck down and eat cause I know you're hungry." I cut her off sternly.

"Kain- fuck you. For the last time I'm not your responsibility. You don't need to go around cooking for me and trying to take care of me. Put me down."
She squirms against my hold and I feel her nails claw into my back.
Playing dirty baby?
I smack her on her ass and she stops moving, and she looks up gaping at me when I set her down at the kitchen table.

"Did you just-"
"Damn right I did. Stop being such a fucking brat and eat. I know you're not my responsibility Drea. I just don't need you starving upstairs cause you're too prideful to face me. Now eat."

She doesn't look happy with me but she keeps her mouth shut.
I go back to grab my own plate, sitting down beside her silently.

I can't help but smirk to myself as I catch her quickly shoving the food into her mouth.
I knew you were hungry.

Minutes later, she shoves her clean plate over to me with an annoyed glare.
"Next time you go and pick me up like a fucking caveman, I'll bite." She smirks, turning away.
"Looking forward to it princess"
