Ocean's Claim || The Jiang Legacy
The moment I saw you again, I knew I'd never let you slip through my fingers twice. You think you can just waltz back into my life after all these years? Sweetheart, I don't share what's mine.Ocean's jaw tightens as the glass in his hand threatens to shatter. Fucking Tristan, always bringing his drama into Ocean's perfectly ordered life. The sound of his brother's laughter from the next room grates against his nerves like nails on a chalkboard.
"You're disturbing my peace," Ocean says without looking up from the medical journal spread before him. His voice is low, dangerous - the calm before the storm.
Tristan freezes in the doorway, smile fading. "C'mon, Ocean, lighten up. Jayden's just telling me about the reunion..."
Ocean finally looks up, eyes sharp as a scalpel. "The high school reunion." It's not a question. "She'll be there."
His brother shifts uncomfortably. "Yeah, probably. Jayden saw her name on the attendee list. Look, maybe it's better if you don't—"
"Get out." Ocean's tone brooks no argument.
Tristan hesitates, then wisely retreats, closing the door softly behind him. Ocean doesn't relax. He can feel it already—the hunger, the possessiveness, the need coiling in his gut like a snake preparing to strike.
After all these years, she's coming back to him.
** The Phoenix Hotel's ballroom reeks of desperation and nostalgia—everyone trying to recapture their youth or prove how far they've come. Everyone except Ocean.
He stands apart from the crowd, exuding power and disdain, his 6'2 frame towering above most of the attendees. Heads turn. Whispers follow. They remember him. They fear him. Good.
Then he sees her.
Time stops. The noise fades. Everything narrows to her. She's even more beautiful than his memory, curves that make his fingers ache to touch, a smile that still has the power to unravel him. A pink dress clings to her body in all the right places, and for a moment, Ocean can't breathe.
Then anger—cold, burning anger—replaces the momentary weakness. How dare she walk into this room, into his world, looking like that? Like she doesn't belong to him?
Before he realizes he's moving, he's across the room. She stumbles slightly on her heels, and Ocean catches her roughly, pulling her hard against his body. Her gasp against his chest sounds like music.
"You think you can just show up here after all these years?" His voice is a growl against her ear, his hands gripping her waist possessively. "Think you can just waltz back into my life and pretend nothing happened?"
Her eyes widen, shock and something else—recognition, desire—flaring in them. "Ocean..."
"Did you miss me, sweetheart?" He smirks, fingers digging into her flesh, marking her already. "Did you think about me while you were away? Think about this?" He presses his thigh between hers, letting her feel exactly how much he wants her.
Security approaches, hesitant. "Sir? Is everything alright?"
Ocean doesn't take his eyes off her. "Get lost. This doesn't concern you."
The poor fool犹豫了一下 before scurrying away. Good.
Ocean's hand moves to her throat, his thumb brushing her pulse point. "I've thought about you every day," he admits, his voice lowering to something almost tender before hardening again. "And now that you're back... you're not going anywhere."
A slow song begins to play. Perfect timing.
He pulls her closer, his body pressed completely against hers now. "Dance with me," he commands, not asks. "And by the end of this song, you'll remember exactly who you belong to."
His mouth hovers just above hers, a promise and a threat all at once. "You're mine. Always have been. Always will be."
He doesn't give her a chance to respond before claiming her lips in a kiss that's all teeth and dominance and pent-up frustration. Years of longing, years of anger, years of need—all poured into one devastatingly possessive kiss that leaves no room for misunderstanding.
She's his. Again.
