The evening air was heavy with tension, the silence in the room oppressive and foreboding. Ana's ragged breaths were the only sound, her chest heaving with a mix of fear and anger. Her gaze was fixed on Eren, her eyes blazing with a fierce resentment that seemed to simmer just below the surface.

But despite her anger, Ana was trapped, her wrists pinned against the wall by Eren's unyielding grip. His fingers wrapped around her slender wrists like a vice, holding her in place with a strength that was both captivating and terrifying. Ana tried to jerk her hands free, but Eren's hold was unrelenting, his eyes burning with a fierce possessiveness that made her heart skip a beat.

It was clear that Eren had reached his breaking point, his patience worn thin by the presence of Ana's ex, who had been lurking around her with suspicious intentions. Eren's eyes seemed to bore into Ana's very soul, his gaze a scorching reminder that he would stop at nothing to protect her, even if it meant crossing the boundaries of their strained relationship.

Ana's throat constricted as she gulped, her nervousness palpable. Eren's gaze lingered on her face, his eyes drifting from her frightened eyes to her trembling throat. He knew she was scared, and his expression softened ever so slightly.

Releasing his grip on her wrist, Eren didn't step back, his body still mere inches from Ana's. The air was thick with tension, their ragged breaths the only sound in the room.

Eren's eyes narrowed, his voice low and menacing. "This shouldn't happen again, Ana Arthur. If it does, he won't live. You know I'm a man of my word." His sharp stare cut through Ana, making her heart skip a beat.

Without another word, Eren turned and stormed out of the room, slamming the door shut behind him. The sound echoed through the room, leaving Ana shaked

As the silence enveloped her, Ana took deep breaths, trying to calm her racing heart. Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes, and she let them flow, surrendering to the emotions that had been building up inside her.

Lost in her thoughts, Ana didn't notice her phone ringing at first. The sudden shrill sound made her jump, and she gazed at the phone in surprise. Reaching for the side table, she picked up the phone and looked at the number. It was unfamiliar.

Despite her reservations, Ana answered the call. A loud, menacing laugh echoed through the line, making her blood run cold. She thought it was the wrong number and moved to hang up, but then she heard a blood-curdling scream.

The caller started to reveal her personal information like reading a book, all of a sudden the world went blank, no one was making any noise, the images she was watching became blurred-a tear rolled down her eyes.

Lastly before revealing his requirements he made a statement saying "Butterfly, didn't you do a murder? Oh yeah A mistaken murder but does that even affect the fact that you are a murderer" again repeating BUTTERFLY he cut the call

Ana gulped her Saliva down, taking deep breaths and crying like a mess as if she remembered something and after a moment she wiped her tears, trying to calm the Strom inside her she left the room

Later that evening Eren was invited to a fancy party and his rivals as well as prominent business men were coming. If it was an Invite for Eren, Ana had no choice but to follow him and she did like an obedient puppet unaware of anything that would happen after

She was dressed in a Maroon Wine Gown, wearing louboutin heels perfectly matching with her choice but she wasn't happy. She looked in the mirror setting her hairs aside She picked up the phone and remembered the call A storm was made inside her she bite her lips lost in her thoughts without noticing Eren's presence behind her

"Are you ready?" He asked like he wasn't asking but stating that she was ready They made their way out of the suite with a "ideal couple" walk fake and smiles on their face

The drastic change in evening occured when a man pulled Ana forced fully to dance along him even when she refused not to and it got attention of Eren

He started taking steps in their direction
his eyes hinting of fiery like he has awaken the monster inside Eren. Although the dance partner Ana got was the owner of the hotel they were staying in but Eren couldn't care less

With a pull Ana was behind him in a second, he stood there like a shield and stared directly in his soul

"You have taken 16 breaths since you started dancing with MY WIFE, Be careful I can make you regret each of it" he stopped without letting go of Ana's Hand took a step closer to him, grazing against his leg he whispered bending to his level

"16 breaths, 11 steps and hesitation-on your face everything will be gone if you dare to touch my wife again" tapping his shoulder with a forced smile He led the way outside the hotel

On their way back, Ana was silently staring at him without being noticed but He was Eren Aaryan Ofcourse nothing was hidden from him He stopped the car at the side, the sudden break made the tires screech and looked at her while holding the steering. The silence was heavy to ignore

"I'm a demon butterfly, don't try to love me I take advantage of those who do and you know it better than anyone I guess" he paused looking at her thighs, laughing and then continuing their drive
