♡Chapter-56♡

Third point of view.

You were lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, when the door suddenly creaked open. Your body tensed as you immediately sat up, back straightening. Your eyes narrowed slightly when Izana stepped into view, his usual smirk plastered on his face.

But just as the door fully swung open, your jaw clenched at the sight of another familiar face.

Kisaki.

The smug bastard stood beside Izana, adjusting his glasses as he glanced in your direction. His lips curled in distaste. "Tsk. I still don't see the point in keeping her locked up here." He started, his tone cold, calculating. "One way or another, she's going to be a nuisance. Might as well get rid of her now before she causes more problems."

Your blood boiled at his words.

A scoff left your lips before you tilted your head mockingly. "Wow, look at you, Kisaki. Crawling your way into Tenjiku after getting your ass kicked out of Toman. Must sting, huh?"

Kisaki's expression twitched, but he quickly masked it with a smirk. "Still got that big mouth, huh?"

You smirked right back. "And you're still as much of a spineless coward as ever."

Izana chuckled but Kisaki clicked his tongue in irritation, his fists clenching as he took a threatening step forward. His expression twisted in barely contained rage, eyes flashing behind his glasses.

But before he could make another move, Izana lifted a hand lazily, stopping him in his tracks.

"Leave us."

Kisaki hesitated, jaw tightening before he scoffed and turned on his heel. He cast one last glare in your direction before stepping out, shutting the door behind him with a soft click.

Your attention snapped back to Izana as he locked the and slowly turned to face you. "Good morning, princess," He murmured. "Are you facing any sort of trouble here?"

"Fuck off." You muttered pushing yourself up from the bed, instinctively stepping back.

"You always have so much to say, don't you?" He mused, taking a casual step forward. "Every time I hear that mouth of yours, it's either barking threats or spitting insults."

Your body stiffened when his hand suddenly shot out, fingers clamping around your waist. He yanked you forward with force, dragging you flush against him. His fingers digging into your side until a sharp hiss escaped your lips.

His smirk widened. "I wonder..." his tone turned mocking, eyes gleaming as he leaned down so close your noses nearly brushed. "..what will it take to make you shut up?"

"You'll pay for this Izana." Your eyes glared at his. "For kidnapping and locking me in here, I swear--"

Before you could finish, he twisted you in his grip and slammed you back into the couch behind. The cushions dented beneath you as his weight hovered over, his arms caging you in.

"Your so bold, aren't you?," he mocked, voice barely above a whisper. "I almost want to see you try. But tell me, can you really win against me? You already know you don't stand a chance."

Your glare burned into his. "You're a fool if you think this ends here. Underestimate me all you want, Izana. But the second I'm out of here, I'll make sure you'll regret ever touching me."

He let out a quiet laugh, leaning closer until you could feel the brush of his breath against your ear. "You know, most people would've cracked by now. And here you are still throwing a fit, despite being at my mercy."
