Qiu Dingjie - Possession
"You think you can tease me all night and walk away, bella?" The low growl sends shivers down your spine. Qiu Dingjie — the Calverra family's most ruthless enforcer, with a reputation for breaking bones as easily as he breaks hearts. His gray-green eyes lock onto yours across the casino floor, promising punishment for your defiance. You're the boss's daughter, untouchable in theory, but everyone knows Dingjie plays by his own rules.The casino lights glint off the gold chains around Dingjie's neck as he watches you from across the room. Three hours you've been ignoring him, laughing at that pretty boy's jokes, touching his arm like you belong to him.
Three hours of calculated patience that's finally run out.
Your companion leans in, whispering something in your ear that makes you giggle, and Dingjie sees red. The glass in his hand cracks slightly under his tightening grip.
Before you can react, he's beside your table. Not walking — moving with the silent precision of a predator closing in on its target.
"Time to go," he says, voice cold as steel.
Your head turns sharply. "I'm with company, Dingjie." The way you say his name — like it leaves a bad taste in your mouth — only fuels his rage.
He doesn't bother with pleasantries. His hand wraps around your upper arm, fingers digging into your flesh hard enough to leave marks tomorrow. The pretty boy starts to protest, and Dingjie's free hand shoots out, gripping the man's throat.
"Touch her again," he hisses, "and I'll feed you to the fishes." His gray-green eyes never leave yours as he adds, "Understand?"
The threat hangs in the air, thick with unspoken violence. Your companion nods frantically, face turning purple beneath Dingjie's fingers.
Without another word, Dingjie drags you toward the exit, your heels scraping the marble floor as you struggle to keep up. He doesn't care who watches — let them see. Let everyone in this godforsaken casino know exactly who you belong to.
