Hearing Zaki's words, Hinari bit her lip before she heaved a deep sigh to calm herself. She then moved near the window as she speaks.

"I'm sorry, my beauty but i really can't help it. Your name just slipped out! Besides, you should be grateful that you're the first person I think of when I'm in trouble. It's your fault for always being my hero." She replied and Zaki opened and closed his mouth like a fish as he couldn't think of what to say back to her. This woman! How can she be so shameless that even when he was close to death, she could still twist things around like this?! How could she be so talented in stirring up trouble?! How come this ended up as my fault again?!

"Hinari, open the door." Zaki then said with a firm voice and Hinari bit her lip hard again. Well, she realized that Zaki seemed to be at the edge right now and he wasn't seemed in his usual calm self.

"But you're going to punish me" She replied and Zaki could only heave a sigh.

"Did you think you could escape by locking the doors?"

"" Hinari was speechless, she realized it's actually futile to hide like this from this man. He may even break the car's window if he wanted to.

"I will give you 10 seconds." Zaki continued and Hinari began to panic.

"But my beauty, can't you just forgive me this time? I promise, I will behave after this."

"9"

"Hey, are you listening? I will open the door if---"

"8"

"I will open the door if you promise me you won't punish me."

"7"

"I already said sorry. Must you be so harsh with me?"

"6"

"I'm still a lady and i'm still..."

"5"

"Zaki you idiot!"

"...4"

"C'mon, just this once please..."

"3"

"Hey..."

"2"

"Okay I get it, i get it, but remember that even if you don't love me, I'm still your fiance, okay?"

"..."

Zaki was speechless as soon as he heard Hinari's words and for some reason, the words 'even if you don't love me' echoed inside his brain over and over again, words that caused his mood to suddenly turn sour.

Thus, as soon as the car's door opened, Zaki quickly entered with a darkened expression, causing Hinari to reflexively jolt in fear. Well, that moment, Zaki's aura suddenly turned exactly the same as his brother the great's and Hinari who was fearful of Sei couldn't help but react like it was Sei who just entered.

Thinking that Zaki was really angry with her this time, and that there was no hope of her getting away unscathed, Hinari could only raise her white flag and accept her fate.

"I I get it, just punish me however you want. I won't try to escape from it anymore." She said as she looked down. Her voice didn't have her usual mischievousness anymore. As if she was a battery with a 1% energy left.

Hinari did actually feel bad for throwing Zaki into the snake pit to fend for himself but it was true that she uttered Zaki's name before she could even begin to think. Thinking about it, Hinari couldn't help but clench her fists as soon as she realized the fact that there was actually no one else she could think of to help her at that moment but Zaki. She also realized that she had been way too dependent on Zaki when she'd been in dangerous situations more than she thought to the point that she couldn't imagine her future without him anymore.

Hinari couldn't even imagine what would happen to her if she didn't have Zaki all this time. The thought of it made her want to tear up and celebrate to her hearts content for having him in her life, however, Hinari knew very well that Zaki was just doing it because he felt responsible for her.

She was completely aware that even though he never left her or walked away too far from her, he also never advanced even an inch closer to her.

He was her superman, someone seemingly out of reach. To Hinari, Zaki was like a fleeting dream. She couldn't help but feel like no matter how much she chased him, she might never reach him. And she couldn't complain about it, after all, she was the one who told him that first time they met that she wanted to be free.

"I'm sorry. It really was not on purpose. And I'm serious, you can even scold me now to your heart's content. I won't complain anymore." Hinari continued however, the next second, Zaki suddenly yanked her and pinned her down on the backseat.

"You really want to be punished so badly, huh." He said and Hinari stared at him.

"I know my mistake, my beauty. Besides, I don't even have enough energy to run for my life now. Not when my superman is the one after me." She weakly replied as Zaki brushed the strands of hair covering half of Hinari's lips. He was about to smirk dangerously upon hearing her words, however, as soon as he saw the covered part of her lips, Zaki's face suddenly darkened.

"What happened to your lips?" He coldly asked but Hinari simply shrugged.

"Ohh, this? No worries, the bastard's slap was nothing compared to my father's" Hinari wasn't even finished speaking yet when Zaki suddenly released her and in a flash, he suddenly climbed out of the car, leaving Hinari confused and puzzled as she slowly rose.

Zaki's aura was blazing wildly and his blood lust was so intense that even his subordinates who'd been inside another car felt like the demon had awakened. They all quickly climbed out of the car and stood straight before him.

"Where are those scumbags?" He asked with terrifying voice and one of his men immediately answered.

"Loomy and company brought them to the police station. I believe they're about to reach the station right now, second boss." He said and Zaki gritted his teeth, his eyes blazed red like his demon had taken over him as he opened his mouth.

"Tell them the plan has changed! Make them all to feel so much pain that death would be a blessing."
