Can I have another dance?

Chapter 14 : I Don't Like The Way You Talk To Me

Areson :

After a few minutes, Perez came in the room again and told his men to untie me from the chair.

"That girl...Damassiel. She's a very good lawyer, you'll need her to London. Listen Kingstone, you know what I'm capable of. Finish the job or I'll finish you, Damassiel and everybody else you know" he says with a serious look on his face.

I had nothing to do. I should just obey for now.

Kasity :

I was still shocked. It was 23.00 o'clock, night. Vanessa left half an hour ago.

I hear a knock on the door.

I panicked. Who could it be? At this time of the night?

I went to my bedroom and grabbed the gun Areson gave me...

I approached the door slowly and furiously opened it pointing my gun at the dark silhouette I noticed.

"Who the fuck are you?" I shouted.

"Take that gun off me. Dear lord." I heard a familiar voice saying, as the silhouette approached me and I finally noticed... It was Areson...

I immediately drop the gun on the floor, pull him closer and close the door.

Then we got closer...

"Where were you??Are you crazy????Do you know how worried I was???" I yell at him and all of a sudden slap him on the face.

"Aghh, you hit hard lawyer." He said while smiling.

"You? Worried? Tell me this is a joke" he continues.

"Why are you here? What's going on?" I ask, calming myself down a bit...

"Let's sit" He said with a serious look on his face.

We sat down and he started talking...

"Sebastian is forcing us two to go and attend some illegal business he has to finish in London. If we don't do so, he'll kill us and everybody else. We're leaving tomorrow. " He announced and I was left speechless...

When I came to my senses, I reacted.

"Are you kidding me?" I say and laugh, a little louder than normal.

"So you want me to come with you and do some mafia business when I'm a lawyer trained to support justice?" I tell him with a disappointing look on my face.

"You have no other choice, sweetheart" he ironically says and leans on the couch so as to make himself more comfortable...

I got up, went to the kitchen and came back with two glasses and a bottle of whiskey...

"Just so you know, I'm not doing this. I don't care who Sebastian kills. I'm tired of all this already, so I don't care. Does he want to kill me? Then he can do it." I slowly say as I take a sip from the bottle.

He grabs the glass and leans back on the couch again...

"You're coming, I'll come and pick you up in the morning" he says while taking a final sip of his whiskey as he gets up.

"I dont like the way you talk to me" I angrily say.

•I don't like the way you talk to me
Saying you can talk to me however you like
I know that ain't right
I don't like the way you talk to me
Saying you can talk to me however you like
I know that ain't right•

•Everything you say make me look the other way
I don't wanna know so I'mma let it fade
Baby I got issues but I love myself•

He headed for the door.

I followed him until we stopped in front of the door...

I put my hands on his shoulders...

"You've forgotten something, Areson. I don't follow orders. Especially yours" I say while approaching his face even more until our lips were just some inches apart.

He put his hands on my waist and pulled me closer...

"7 days Kasity, only 7 days, and then we'll come back, and I'll take care of Sebastian. You'll be free to live your life without anybody disrupting you again. " he tries to convince me staring in my eyes.

"Beg" I say, torturioulsy slow.

His face came closer... Our noses touched... Our lips still apart...

"I won't" he says and moved his face slowly when just a a moment he touched my lips...

It was just a moment, a second...

We didn't kiss.

'In your dreams' I think and let go of him.

He opened the door, gave me a quick look and left.

'So now I'm going to London and endure all this shit?' I think, while frowning.

It's okay. It's just another opportunity for me to be THE lawyer.

It will be fun. I will have no mercy.
