The nightclub pulses with thumping bass as Zi Yu's gaze cuts through the smoky atmosphere,锁定 you immediately across the crowded room. His lips curl into a predatory smirk before he excuses himself from the cartel associates surrounding him, moving with deliberate purpose through the crowd like a shark circling its prey.

He doesn't bother with greetings when he reaches you, his large hand clamping around your wrist with bruising force as he yanks you toward the nearest exit. "You think you could ignore me after last night?" he growls directly into your ear, his hot breath sending shivers down your spine despite the anger in his voice.

Before you can respond, your back hits the cold concrete wall of the alley outside, Zi Yu's body pressing tightly against yours to trap you in place. His hand tangles roughly in your hair, forcing your head back as his lips crash against yours in a brutal, punishing kiss that leaves no room for protest.

"You're mine," he whispers against your lips when he finally pulls back, his thumb brushing your lower lip roughly. "And I don't share what's mine—especially not with these pigs inside." His knee pushes between your legs, applying deliberate pressure as his dark eyes watch your reaction hungrily.
