BXBX NOVEL Chapter 199 He Is Mine
"Excuse me, what?" screeched the woman who, for some reason, the boys invited into my RV, my HOME, while I was sleeping. I cracked my neck from side to side trying to get rid of the tension in my shoulders.
"You are not excused, and I think you heard me just fine," I said as I got more comfortable against Chen Zi Han. My head fit perfectly between his pecks allowing them to act like a pillow. I would prefer to be sitting on the couch right now, but Chen Zi Han was so tied up in knots right now, that I needed to comfort him. "People that either transmigrate or reincarnate always seem to think that they are the hero of the story. Sorry, heroine, in your case."
She scoffed at that, like it was the funniest thing that she had ever heard, but tell me one instance where someone came back from the dead and didn't think that they were special. That the shitty life that they had before was gone and now they would get the gorgeous guy with a lot of money and live their best life?
Hell, even I fell into that trap in my second and at the beginning of my third life. Now I know better.
"Do you think that this time, you are just going to walk up to Chen Zi Han and save him? That he will be so grateful to you that he falls head over heels in love with you and treats you like a queen for the rest of your life?"
I felt Chen Zi Han stiffen under me and I tried to send him reassuring vibes along our link. I was not mad at him for this, I understood that she came looking for them. But the funniest thing of all was how she kept going on about Chen Zi Han without realizing that he was right in front of her this whole time.
Her face morphed into something else before settling back down into the sweet innocent look that she had before. You could never trust someone that transmigrated or reincarnated. They always seemed to have a golden finger of some kind or other that kept them alive a lot longer than they should have been.
Not like I actually met anyone like me in any of my lives, but let's face it, I read a lot of novels.
"Why did you come here?" I asked, no longer in the mood to stretch things out. She was stressing out Chen Zi Han and even Liu Yu Zeng, and I would not put up with it.
"I came here to tell Liu Yu Zeng about his brother," she said, raising her chin. I smirked, both at her statement and her posture.
"His bother is right there, you don't need to worry about helping him anymore," I said as I pointed to Liu Wei. "Next."
She stiffened as she looked back and forth between Liu Yu Zeng and Liu Wei. I mean, it wasn't that they looked exactly alike, not to mention their personalities couldn't have been more different, but they were clearly family.
Family.
Then it hit me. "You are here to grasp Liu Yu Zeng's thigh to cruise through the apocalypse, giving him hints here and there about what he needs to do to stand on top of the world and hopefully, he will be able to lead you to Chen Zi Han. The man that you came back to life for."
That fucking bitch.
The woman's face went white as she looked to Chen Zi Han for help. "Don't look at him," I snapped as I felt his disgust and discomfort. No one could make one of my men feel that way. No one.
She turned her attention then to Liu Yu Zeng. "I can help, I can tell you everything you need to know about the future," she begged. "Just take me to Chen Zi Han."
Liu Yu Zeng scoffed, his face becoming an expressionless mask. But if you looked close enough, you could see the rage in his eyes. "So you wanted to use me to find Chen Zi Han, is that it?"
"No," she said, frantically shaking her head.
"No," I agreed with her, and Liu Yu Zeng turned his gaze to me. I took the full brunt of his rage and then smiled. "She also wanted to hug your thigh to make her life easier."
"What does it mean to hug someone's thigh?" asked Wang Chao as he stood between the Liu Brothers, one hand in his pocket. The other hand was holding a 9mm. Huh, wonder how I missed that before.
"She wanted to cling to him so that he could pave her way and she didn't have to fight so hard to get ahead," I answered with a shrug of my shoulders. She spun around, her hair flying in a perfect circle and she turned her attention back to me. I smiled. I wanted to run my hand up Chen Zi Han's neck to pull his head down so that I could kiss him. Stake my claim.
But I also didn't want to do that. I didn't want to use our relationship, our need for each other as ammo against someone else. Someone that doesn't matter. Even if she was his soulmate.
As pain stabbed through my heart at that thought, Chen Zi Han took my neck in his firm grip and tilted my head back until he could claim my lips. 'You are my soulmate. The only one that I want in my life forever and a day. Don't ever hesitate to do whatever it is that you want to me, I don't care who is watching,' he growled into our link. My mind froze as he took complete control of my body. I had forgotten that he could feel me just as well as I could feel him.
The soft gasp forced my mind back to the present and not the promise of his lips.
"Chen Zi Han is mine," I said as I focused my full attention on the woman that was trying to weasel into my men's lives. "He was mine before, he is mine now, and he will continue to be mine in the future," I snarled, curling my lip. I could feel my blue flames rising to the surface, burning away the cold that I was feeling before.
"You will die," I continued as Chen Zi Han gently flexed his hand that was still around my throat. It was that connection that kept me grounded, that stopped me from burning her and everyone else down to the ground. "But I will be merciful. I will let you pick the way you die. Do you want to burn to death or a shot to the head?"
The weak, eager-to-please girl from before faded in front of us, and in her place was a woman who survived the apocalypse. "You think it is easy to kill me? Do you even know who I am?"
"No, I don't," I said. And I didn't care who she was. She had to die. But first--- "Are you okay with this?" I asked Chen Zi Han, tilting my head back to seriously look at the man that was my anchor in the storm.
He scoffed his response, not bothering to dignify my question with an answer.
"Why do you ask him that?" demanded the woman. I could see her trying to gather her powers and I knew that shadows were her thing.
"Ah, allow me to introduce to you... Chen Zi Han," I said with a smile as his hand gripped my throat a bit tighter. Not enough to hurt, never enough to do that. But he also knew that I needed it, so he gave.
The woman gasped and the shadows that she was gathering fled as she collapsed on the floor. "But he is to be mine," she said as she looked around the room frantically.
"He is mine," I said pointing to Liu Yu Zeng and her eyes followed my finger. Liu Yu Zeng smiled a maniacal smile and waved his fingers in a 'hello'. "He is mine," I said as I pointed to Wang Chao. The CEO and probably richest man in Country K if not the world, tilted his head down in a nod to acknowledge my statement.
"He is mine," I said as I pointed to Liu Wei. The woman's eyes followed me from man to man as I introduced them. Liu Wei didn't move an inch as her eyes fell on him. "You'll have to excuse him," I said with a smile as I scrunched my nose. "He is trying to figure out how to kill you without upsetting me."
Then I reached up and grabbed the hair of the man behind me and dragged him down to my level so that our cheeks were touching and she could easily see both of us at the same time. "He is mine," I said as I raised my chin. "Any questions?"
"You can't have them all!" she screamed and the shadows in the room reacted to her anguish, pulling themselves from all corners of the room and swirling around her.
