Abduction
Xiao Zhan's POV:
Striding out of JC's office I walk over to the elevator.
Fuck. Uncle Xiao? I have a nephew? Damn who is this guy? Whatever this is I need to report it ASAP to BoBo and the boys.
Fuck!
I hit the elevator button in frustration when a voice from screeches in my ear. What the?
"Hey you!" I turn to see a women who if one could deduce would be in her 30s, dressed to impress but her personality basically lacks what her wardrobe could make up for. My no response obviously agitates her and she points her manicured finger at me "don't you know this elevator is only for the higher officials. Obviously you're here for the interview. Don't you have any manners to bow your head when a superior is talking?"
Ah, now I get it. Ms. Olivia Bloom. Head of Operations. Recently joined my company and an Oxford University graduate. Well I'm clearly not impressed.
"Hey! I am talking to you. Who the hell do you think you are ignoring me? Wait till I complain about your non professionalism to Mr. Jiang." Now this is beginning to irritate me. I have serious matters in hand and this women is giving me headache.
"Are you mentally unstable?" She yells when JC raises his voice "Ms. Bloom!" and she turns her awful personality towards him. From my peripheral I see Uncle Jiang joining us with rest of the Board Members following him out from the conference room.
Great.
Observing the time on my watch I hear her spouting more nonsense and that made me lose it. I had to teach her a lesson. No one can talk to anyone in such a demeaning way.
I could see uncle's smile. He knew my temperament well.
"Ms. Bloom, mind your language" my voice is harsh and that surprises everyone present in the premise "don't forget that you're merely an employee working in a prestigious organization who does not give you the right to demean any other employee be it your boss, your peer or your subordinate" I make sure my eyes meet each and everyone present here "the elevator that you so proclaim is for only higher officials is given for their convenience, probably to attend an important and urgent meeting so that they won't give some damn excuses for their delays" I pause and raise my eyebrows "not for any other reason. JC, call Mr. Li from the Human Resource department and ask him to type out Ms. Bloom's termination letter. Also" I smirk as her eyes widen "I'll be glad to sign the letter personally."
"Who..." she stammers "who are you?"
"Ms. Bloom" JC grins "let me introduce you to your boss as well as mine, Mr. Xiao Zhan" series of gasp resonate around and I tune them out. My sole focus is on the women in front of me "You'll get your compensation for the service you have rendered but after today I don't wish for my company to be associated with you. Rather I despise people like you. Remember no work is above humanity and being humble."
With her head down she leaves and Uncle Jiang ushers the Board Members back to the conference room. Once we were left alone I apologise "Sorry JC, this would cause so much problem for you."
"Don't worry about this. You have far more important things to handle. Did your meeting with Ms. Banks go well?"
"Yup" I smile at him "but I need to leave. I'll see you tonight."
"Wait how are you going home? You came with me this morning. I'll ask one of our drivers to drop you" as he is about to dial a number I stop him "Don't bother. I'll catch a cab and plus that would be far easier for me."
"Cab?" he sounds shocked and I chuckle "Why can't the owner of Xiao Group of Hotels travel by cab?" Looking back at the room I lift my chin "I'll drop by the Jiang House this weekend. It's been ages since I have had uncle cook for me. Take care" just as the elevator pings I wave him good day and leave.
Walking into my safe space made my heart a lot calmer and that is when I see Ms. James having her lunch in the kitchen made me so surprised. Well let's just say she was equally suprised to see me dressed in a three piece suit. For a man who hardly comes out of his office, she has always seen me in sweater, jeans and at times bear foot.
"Zhan" she is about to get up when I gesture her to continue eating and she blushes "Please Ms. James, finish your lunch. I apologise to have disturbed you" I smile kindly and she grins.
"I'll leave you to your own company" I turn to leave when she calls my name "Zhan if you're searching for those boys then they are upstairs. One of them um..." she bites her lips "the one who smiles a lot. Thick neck. Kind eyes."
Wow.
"Jun?" I help her out and she nods enthusiastically "Yes him! Did you know from the moment those boys started residing here, they haven't asked me to cook for them? Rather they cook for me too and especially Mr. Jun cooks the best" she blushes and I laugh.
For as long as I remember, Ms. James has been our house help, she is around 60 now and blushing like a teenager. How cute!
"I'll inform Jun that you have a crush on him" at that she giggles and I bow down with respect and allow her to eat peacefully.
Striding quickly towards their base I knock the door and enter as all their eyes land on me.
"Sorry to barge in on you guys but lis-" I stop and the world around me closes in.
A boy not more than 10 years old. Huddled in a corner. Grim and dirty but otherwise unhurt. He's the same kid from my previous premonition. The one that lead me to the house where Yibo and I were kidnapped. His head is covered with a hoodie. Crouching in front of him I try touch him but to no avail.
"I have been waiting for you," J's voice sounds next to my ear and my body freezes "do you see him? He's your relative. You think you can save him?"
I try to move my body but am unable to. What has he done?
"What do you need?" I bite out and he sighs so close to my ear "You. If you're ready we'll soon play." I feel his hands on my waist and before I could protest another set of hands pull me out and I gasp.
Coughing I observe Yibo's hands on me and Adrian hands over few tissues "Your nose is bleeding". Yibo wipes the blood on me carefully and I place my head on his shoulder taking deep breaths.
Once my heart is stable I show them my phone "I received a phone from J today. Rather it wasn't him but a boy who pleaded with me to save him. He called me Uncle Xiao. Just now I had a premonition. Yibo, he is the same kid who I saw before too. The one that lead us to the house where we were kidnapped." I turn to the boys who formed a protective shield around me but maintained safe distance "I don't know who this relative is, but we need to save him." They agree and get back to their stations.
Slowly bringing myself to stand on my unstable feet I leave them as BoBo guides me to my bedroom.
"I need to rest." Laying down on the bed I close my eyes and the oblivion welcomes me.
Wang Yibo's POV:
I stand by the window and watch the sun set beautifully and waving us a warm farewell with a promise for a better tomorrow. I hear his deep breaths and sigh. It's been close to four hours since he laid down to sleep. He needs to rest. If my calculations are right then he hasn't slept a wink in last 48 hours.
"BoBo" hearing him whisper my name, the next moment I am by his side helping him up the bed "I am alright" his voice is coarse and I grudgingly agree with Dr. Suk, Weibo does look pale.
He ambles his way towards the washroom and grins when I am about to follow "You want to watch me pee?" He teases and I blink. Laughing at my expense he closes the door and I walk back towards the window.
Few minutes later he joins me and I notice that he has had quick a wash too. His musky scent envelopes me and stirs an emotion within me. I am yet again caught drooling when he grins and takes a step closer to me.
"You tempt me, BoBo" he whispers and I gasp. This is probably the very first time that he has taken the initiative to touch me as one of his hand clutches my hair and the other snakes around my waist. Bringing his lips close to mine he teases me by not kissing me on my lips but faintly grazing them on my neck.
My heart.
Giving him access I close my eyes when his lips tickle my spot. The beautiful moment freezes and -
"Boy" I hear that man's voice "how do you feel when I lick you?" -
I gasp and push Weibo away.
Turning around and unable to face him, the humiliation takes over any other feelings present.
But it's when I hear Weibo's calm voice the tears within me flow "One needs time to heal. Often when we become saviours, we forget our own wounds and wants. BoBo, never turn your back to me. I'm here. Let me be your need."
With a soft caress to my hair he leaves the room, his own room to give me space.
I don't know how long was I here in his room, rocking back and forth hurdled under the window, but it was when Adrian bursts into the room, I knew my world had just ended.
"Wang" his voice is frantic and I jump to my feet.
"What?" my steps falter.
"Zhan, he's been abducted" Adrian walks over to me when my back crashes against the wall.
What?
