Blaze's POV
After our second time of lovemaking, Anna again fell into a deep sleep. I washed her body and tucked her inside the blanket. I wanted her to eat something, but she refused when I tried to force her. But seeing she could barely open her eyes, I stopped pushing her.
I thought once I finish doing my work, I would wake her up for lunch.
After taking a quick shower, I left our bedroom feeling fresh - not because of the shower. Instead, I finally got what I wanted for such a long time.
But when I came out of our bedroom, I felt a little empty. My heart burned to emptiness. Anna's scent merged into my blood. Only being with her could claim this burning pain. But what could I do? I knew for no reason my people would disturb me. I missed her even though I was a door away from her.
I walked into my office on the ground floor with a heavy heart. I didn't want to see Anna anywhere near my darkness, so I made a private office on the ground floor.
As soon as I entered, I saw a few of my loyal men along with Lucas, sitting with a dark face.
Seeing me, Lucas glared. "Hey, can you be more responsible? We called you 2 hours ago, yet you only came now. Seriously, man. We are dying here from anxiety, and you dare to enjoy your time with that wildcat," he screamed. I glared back at him.
"Shut your mouth, Lucas. You better understand that Anna is my wife. So, when you talk about her, show the respect you show for me." I made my warning noticeably clear. I could digest anything. Still, if someone said anything about her, I wouldn't tolerate any disrespect from anyone, even my best friend.
Lucas knew I was dead serious, so he stayed silent, which I appreciated very much. I didn't want to make my best friend my enemy. But only he knew what my limit line was.
"So, what happened?" I sat on the couch, crossing my legs over like a king.
"Boss, some attacked our four offices and destroyed all our goods. Also, we heard someone put a reward on madam which is 10 million. They want her dead," one of my trustworthy men informed me. My face has already turned icy.
"Do you know who did this?" I looked at Lucas.
"Who else other than that bastard rival of yours? God damn! He dares to destroy our goods. I am going to crush his dick once I get my hands on him." Lucas gritted his teeth, but that's not what I was asking from him.
"Then I have to use her method to control her. If this is true then, I don't need to hide Anna anymore."
"Are you crazy?" What do you want? Can't you see she desperately wants to control you? If you reveal Anna in front of the world, she will openly challenge you." Lucas's face turned stormy.
But I don't think I will back down this time, not even because I am holding back now.
"No, I can, and I will. I gave her endless chances, but she never took it. So, I will give what she wants. She wants to play. Then let's see who laughs in the end."
"Are you sure you're ready to give up on that thing you worked on for the last five years?" Lucas's face was telling me he would not believe me. I even fell on my knees, which was never possible in this life.
But he was wrong. Nothing was more precious than Anna, not even the thing I worked for five years.
