Taken

Flashback

This is not a current situation takes place back when Shang first got back from prison, I never published it because of the confusion, I thought you'd guys would like it.

Narrator POV

Aysia set the dirty dishes into the sink. Where was Shang? She could not go more than two seconds without worrying about him. 

Sighing, she went towards their bed and sat down, waiting. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she knew.
He was fighting. She thought he would stop. The ninja Dammit Shang, where the hell are you?

As if answering her unspoken question, she felt a sense of his presence. He appeared through the door. As she expected, he was bloody, sweat dripping from his hair and body.

As much as he was beaten, he looked refreshed and alive. His shirt had been torn off long ago and his pants were almost in shreds.

He met her gaze, unafraid or unashamed.
"What are we eating tonight?" He said while wiping his face with his hand.
She got up, trying to control her fury with him.

He delighted in her anger.
"Shut up Shang." There, already the tiniest trace of an amused smirk rested on his full lips.

"Sit down." She pointed to the bed. He stayed rooted to the ground.

"I said sit down." She hissed between clenched teeth. He did slowly, grating on her already shredded nerves. She went into the bathroom and gathered bandages.
"Aysia." She ignored the husky tone to his voice. "Ohh no, not tonight buddy."

"Why must you put yourself in harm's way? Why do you like it so much?" she asked instead, ripping the cloth into strips.
"I come from Taiwan, Aysia. Violence is my life. Without it, I feel violated and robbed."
"There is something seriously wrong with you." She complained angrily as she wrapped his bleeding wounds.

He grabbed her arm, stopping her. She didn't look at him. She focused on his chest.
"Aysia." His voice was soft but there was no deny in how he felt.

"Mm, Aysia Aysia Aysia, you know I like you angry." She pushed him away.

"Stop it. Don't think this will change anything Shang. You can't kiss me and don't touch me either."

He looked up into her eyes. "I'm sorry."

Aysia looked at him. "You said that before you went to Jail."

"The thought of making love to you like this has crossed my mind on occasion." He was ignoring her.

He pulled her closer until she was nearly on top of him. "Just give it up."

"Is that what you do? You go out start fights, finish them and then you want to come home to a woman that'll cook your meals and pleasure you?"

"Aysia don't feel that way, baby."
He kissed up her cheeks Suddenly, he stopped.

He looked into her eyes and what she saw there was something he would have killed others for seeing. Regret.
"I hurt you deeply this time. It wasn't my intention."

He sat up on the bed. She smoothed damp hair back from his face so she could see him clearly.

"I know it's hard to stop fighting Shang. It is understandable, look at what you have been through. Such sadistic natures and violence were beaten into you. I get it."

He was about to say something but she cut him off.

"What you'll learn about us is that We have Kieran to take care of. I can handle many things, but I can't go on without you.I also understand why you are the way you are."

I wouldn't be yours Shang if I didn't love it.  Ok?"

He was still against her for a moment.

"I am a man of very few words, this you know, I don't know when but I see a future and you're in it."

"Promise me no more fighting, no more missions?" Aysia said.

"I'll work on it." Shang said while walking to the bathroom.

Aysia frowned. "Right."
