❝ WATCH TO DANGER ❞

21

As soon as the morning came, you went back to work at the Bonten's workplace in the office as if nothing had happened between you and Koko yesterday.

"Y/n!" You glanced around and noticed Mask approaching you.

"You've been gone for days, what have you been doing?" Mask and his friends asked as you worked on some files at your office desk.

You quickly responded, thinking you might get scolded due to your frequent absent days.

"W-Well, my boss requested a week off due to my sickness, and they suggested that I work at least in my room during that time. I hope you don't mind, but don't worry! I'll catch up in no time. I'm really sorry." You added, immediately sitting at your desk.

"Oh yeah sure, and don't worry, you didn't miss much. We've done half of the work. You need to rest more often these days. You easily get sick, huh?" Mask said.

"Oh, really? Thank you so much. You've done a lot for me." You said, showing a large amount of appreciation. You started your work early, also to make up for the tasks you've missed.

"Of course! Thanks for your concern. I'll go to the cafeteria for a while." You smiled and bowed as you went out of the office.

"Pst, Mask." Mask's friend named Haru nudged him as he whispered something.

"Are you sure there's nothing up with Y/n and our bosses?" Haru whispered as you went out of the office.

Mask only raised a brow. "What do you mean?"

"You know," Haru whispered, side-eyeing.

Mask eventually got what he meant, and he just sighed. 

"Right okay." Haru quickly took his words back as soon as he noticed Mask going quiet.

You walked through the hallway, going to the cafeteria. Your heels clanked through the floor as you checked the time on your phone.

Your phone rings, and as you checked it, it's one of the employees from the office.

"Hello? Yes, I'm sorry I took a break for a week but I'll finish the reports—" You were cut off as you heard footsteps behind you.

Feeling a little shocked, you looked back and scrunched your brows.

The hallway is empty.

"Hello? Y/n are you still there?"

"Um, yes I'm still here, sorry for that and yes I already did the marketing one last week." You said as you tried to compose your breathing, and you looked around and noticed that this part of the hallway to the cafeteria is usually empty and no one goes here.

"Y/n? Are you listening?" From being too occupied, you lost focus on the call.

"Y-Yes, I'm listening." You sighed as you opened the door to the cafeteria and went inside.

"Hold on, I'll call later and I'll just submit the file via email. Have a good day." You hurriedly said and ended the call.

You placed the phone in your pocket as you went into the pantry.

The foods inside were also provided by Bonten. Obviously, everything here is owned by them. You grabbed some food and placed them on the table.

As you closed the pantry door, the lights suddenly turned off.

"What?" You jolted as you looked behind, and you quickly toggled on the flashlight in your phone as soon as you grabbed it.

The first thing that you did was run to the switch and turn it on, but it didn't work.

"It's impossible for this large-ass mansion to have a power outage." You groaned as you walked.

You were walking carefully and slowly while holding the flashlight.

As you were holding the flashlight, you heard the door creak open.

You flinched as you turned around and saw no one. Feeling anxious, you grabbed one of the brooms from the storage room and walked carefully to the door, holding the broomstick in your hand. You were well aware that the mansion you were living in was a dangerous criminal organization's headquarters, and anyone could attack at any time.

"And it's possible for this mansion to be haunted." You joked and laughed in nervousness.

You're walking sideways and hid behind the wall as you slowly walked to the door, but you felt someone tap your shoulders.

"AHHH!" You screamed as you begin to swing your broomstick.

"Y/n?" You heard a familiar voice as he switched the lights on and caught your wrist to stop you from hitting.

"Oh, Ran." Your eyes widen as you adjusted to the light and saw Ran in front of you. You sighed in relief as you put the broomstick down.

"What are you doing in here?" Ran said.

"I was supposed to eat, but after what happened, I lost my appetite." You replied as you scratched the back of your head.

"Were you scared? Sorry about that. We fixed something in this area. We thought no one was here."

"What?! No! I'm not scared, I was just shocked." You tried to convince him.

"Oh really?" He chuckled as he observed your reaction.

"Well, go eat now. I heard you didn't eat breakfast." He said as he walked to the pantry and grabbed food.

"Wait I'm not really hungry now and—"

"No, you should eat." He cuts off as he placed the food on the table.

"Well— fine." You said as you sat down at the chair while he was sitting across you.

Ran is silent while you are eating, causing you to adjust in your seat as you felt a little uneasy.

"So, how was your day with Koko yesterday?" Ran asked and your breath hitched from the sudden question as you looked at him.

Ran waited for your response, unbothered, while sipping his cup of tea.

"Oh, uh well we went to the mall a-and he treated me to shopping." You said with a small smile to reassure him.

"Mhm, that's it?" He repeated as he placed his elbows on the table and intertwined his fingers while he placed them under his chin.

"Y-Yeah?" You said, quickly averting your gaze to the food as you were intimidated to look at him. You can't help but stutter, especially with your heart beating quickly from apprehension.

Ran didn't say a single word after that, yet you can feel his eyes on you every time you move, your hands nearly trembling while you held the spoon and fork.

You gulped as you slowly looked at him, and your eyes widen as you see him staring at you,

Intensely.

It felt different, like a scorching heat that was slowly lingering, yet his eyes radiate deadly cold. You could feel his anger radiate off of him, and you were terrified to speak as if you'd pushed a button that would push him over his limits.

"Is there something wrong?" Ran asked as he noticed you, he raised his head as he gazed down at you.

"I think I should ask the same." You replied, well damn, you kind of regret saying that now as you heard him shift in his seat.

"What do you think?" He replied.

"Um—" You were cut off as you felt him hold your chin, you inhaled sharply as he tilted your head and looked at your neck.

You knew you fucked up as your stomach dropped and you realized what he just did.

"Is this from Koko?" He asked and you almost flinched from the tone of his voice, it was stern and blunt.

Ran was referring to the hickey from yesterday.

You were left stunned. You felt panic attacking you, fiddling with your fingers as you chew the inside of your cheeks due to nervousness.

"Hm, okay, huh?" Ran said as he raised his brows and stood up from his seat, he leaned forward at the table as he placed his hands on the desk. "I see how it is."

Your brows furrowed up at his demeanor at this moment. You looked at your surrounding, not knowing what to say.

"So," he spoke, shocking you with his command. "--Tell me what happened."

"Huh?" Your eyes slightly widened.

"As much as I don't like repeating myself, I said tell me what happened. Go ahead. I'll listen." Ran said, with a deep tone that he doesn't usually use.

"I-" You muttered. "Shit." You know there's no escaping from lying now. He already knows, so what's the point of lying?

"W-we... we fucked." You mumbled, barely above a whisper

You caught the sides of Ran's mouth slightly lifting, forming into a subtle smirk. He only nodded, continuing to drink his tea.

"That's all?" He raised a brow.

As soon as Ran doesn't hear another response from you, a deep chuckle resonated from his throat.

"So there's nothing wrong with me fucking another woman, then?" Ran asked.

Your eyes slightly widened, brows raising up as you looked at him with a teary, yet irked expression. You have no right to be mad. No rights at all. What Y/n and Ran did are mutual. None of them have the right to be mad as what they did was clearly... the same.

A sin for a sin, perhaps?

"Why do you suddenly look sad?" He asked.

"I can't take a pussy for granted when you're out there taking another cock?" He laughed, placing the cup of tea on the glass table with a loud clank.

"Y/n, I'm hurt." He cooed, faking a pout and sympathy. 

"But it's okay. If you don't enjoy my company anymore, I can find another woman to keep my pleasure--"

"I don't know. The question is, who fucked me better?" You retorted, causing Ran to pause in his words.

"Hm," Ran chuckled at your snarky response. 

The next thing you know is that Ran is towering over you as he grabbed your wrist and pushed your upper body onto the table. He flipped you around, your back now facing him. 

"I think, I can answer your question," Ran whispered as he leaned toward you. 

You feel your wetness pooling in your underwear as you felt Ran's bulge poking your clothed pussy. Your own body was betraying you, and you hate how you easily succumb to his will. 

"Stop," you whimpered, fighting your own arousal.

He paused for a moment, taking in your reaction. You closed your eyes for a moment, feeling like you have been waiting for hours. 

"Sit up," he said, his tone shifting a bit softer. 

You did what he told you, but you avoided his gaze, feeling shame loom over your body.

"I'm sorry," you mutter.

He didn't let you continue your apologies as he only secures your head on his chest, with his hand behind your head.

"I didn't, and I'm not going to fuck another woman on your watch." He said.

"I'm sorry," you mutter once again, feeling guilt pool in your chest.

He was about to speak until his phone rings in his pocket. He ignored it, and just kept on embracing you. You decided to nudge him and tell him it must be something important.

"It's not that important." He said.

"But it is." 

Ran sighed for a moment, then soon decided to oblige and answered the call on his phone.

"I'll be there in a minute." He said on the phone.

You lowered your head for a minute, but you felt Ran grabbing your chin as he softly kissed your lips, which turned into a makeout session. 

"Fuck," he groaned between the kiss as he remembers that he needs to attend to something urgent, but this ecstasy from you was holding him back. 

As soon as the kiss ended, he fixes his posture and composed himself, hiding the bulge in his pants that he has to deal with.

"I need to go, baby." He said, and you nodded. You felt him pat your head and land a kiss on your forehead before he heads off. 

You slowly nodded as Ran went out, but as soon as your focus went on your phone and food, you failed to notice the devilish and malicious smirk that Ran held as he whispered something when he got out.

"Oh gosh, finally. It's the weekend tomorrow."

Haru groaned while stretching after sitting on his office chair for the whole day in the office. Everyone also started packing their things up as night approached.

"Not done yet with that?" Mask asked in your cubicle, seeing your workload.

"Nah, no, but I'm almost done, tho'." You said as you'll take an overtime since you need to complete your missing tasks for your absent days.

"You'll stay in the office late again?" Mask asked worriedly.

"Yeah, but I won't be that late. I'm fine, and thanks for asking." You replied.

"Alright," Mask just nodded, observing you for a minute as he also left the office with the other works.

Now you're alone in the office once again. You're getting quite used to the dark, even if this is your second time having overtime in the office. 

Ring! Ring!

You answered your phone, and another employee asks you.

"Hello, Y/n? I'm really sorry, but may you hand me the folder? I'm just outside, and also since you're the only one left in the office anyway. If you don't mind." 

"Oh yeah, sure. Hold on." You replied, muting the microphone on the call as you sigh and stand up to grab that specific thing they asked. 

You then went out of the office, closing the semi-opaque glass door.

While inside the office, a man stood behind the lockers and was hidden in the dark. He opened the window and jumped out once the office was empty.

As soon as he landed on the ground, he quickly wore his hood on the jacket to cover his face and grabbed the remote from his pocket, he then pushed a button on the fence to disable the alarm and then climbed off.

"Hello? Yeah, so she's the girl with h/c hair and e/c eyes, yeah?" The man said on his phone as he ran off quickly to the forest to escape.

"Her name is L/n Y/n, and yes."

"Okay boss, it's really her."

"Good, I'll double your pay next week if you complete your mission, and that's just your first task." And with that, the call ended.

The man on the phone smirked as he puts his phone down and chuckled menacingly.

"Ah, I told you Y/n, I'm always watching."
