What if you get so addicted to someone that you even dream about them sleeping next to you in your bed
~~~~~~~~~~
Draken sat in his office quietly, thinking, while he looked at his picture with Emma on his phone...what was he going to do about David. He could also get rid of him like he tried to get rid of him.
It'd be so easy for him, he was such a lethal man that a relationship of brothers didn't mean that much to him. Their relationship had died long ago.
He sat quietly but unexpectedly, David burged into his office.
"Wow.... impressive!" He exclaimed while clapping.
"You're so impressive little brother, like that....you took back everything that I took from you in mere seconds" he said, approaching him on his desk.
"Did you really even disappear? Or...."
What was he trying to imply?
Draken was sick of David's little games. He stood up, in a swift move, he slammed David, face first on the desk with one hand and used the other to take out a knife from his pocket and pierced it through the desk...inches away from David's face.
"Argh!!! You've grown bold little brother!" David's voice hinted fear.
He didn't know the kind of man he was dealing with....he was dangerous.
"You don't know who you're messing with David....you better stay back and watch.your.back" his last word were threatening, he pressed David's face against the desk further and brought the knife closer.
"So you want to kill me huh!!! Go ahead!" David shot back at him....but Draken couldn't care less.
"It would be so easy," he said, before he shoved him to the ground and put back his knife in the pocket.
He looked down at him and then suddenly, smiled?
Like a mad man, it was horrifying
"Are you insane?"David asked...
"Get out" Draken simply replied.
The look in his face said it all, he looked like he was joking but in actual sense, he was dead serious.
"How dare you! I'm still your older brother" David replied.. getting up from the floor.
"We are not related by blood! I don't consider you family at all" Draken was cold.
David wondered how women fell for this man, he was so cold. Yes he had the looks, but his behavior was deadly.
He's a lethal man
"Do you need me to escort you out?" He asked, clearly mocking him.
"Arrogant bastard!!" David cursed at him before he left.
~~~~~~
Back in his office, David assigned his men.
"I need to find out what that bastard was doing all those days he went missing...he couldn't survive that accident on his own, someone must have helped him" he trying to fix pieces of the puzzle.. something wasn't adding up.
"What do you mean boss?" His man asked.
"He's changed... something about him gives me the creeps..he even threatened me!! Ha! He's grown bold" David replied after deep thinking.
He remembered in their childhood, he always locked him in a roofless small hut in the rain...just to make fun of him.
Which explains Draken's fear of rain, he has that trauma
That little boy who used to be scared of him...was now threatening him??
"I need you to find out everything! Don't leave a single stone unturned" he ordered.
But the man he was plotting against was ten steps ahead of him, and way smarter than he was.
~~~~~~~~
" Erick, prepare my car, I'll be leaving later" Draken ordered.
He needed to see Emma again, for himself even just from a distance. He couldn't concentrate on his work properly.
His day was going bad already, and Sam's unexpected visit made it worse.
"Draken! It's really you!" She said, excitedly approaching him.
Draken stood up before she could even reach him and walked to the other side.
"Samantha" he said, after keeping a huge distance between them.
"Draken I..." He didn't need to hear anything from her.
"I'm working and don't have time for your nonsense" he coldly said. He wasn't considerate of anyone's feelings.... except for his wife.
"How can you be this cold towards me Draken, everything I've done was for you, for us" she said, trying to approach him again but he dodged her again.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about"
He despised this woman....she caused Emma so much pain and she had the audacity to face him like nothing even happened.
"Fine... I'll stop trying to approach you...I just wanted to welcome my friend back and tell him how much I missed him... I'm also hoping you can make it to my birthday party" she said, placing the small gift bag she'd brought for him on his desk.
"Then, if there's nothing else, leave my office" Draken replied without second thought.
"Draken, why have you suddenly changed so much, you weren't like this before" her voice hinted sadness.
Because he didn't see her fake face before.
"Nothing personal. Samantha, I'd appreciate if you stop trying to get close to me. I don't like you and I've never liked you!"
It was like deja Vu....the exact words she told David, were coming from the man she claimed liked her. She was heartbroken.
"Draken please.... anything but that, don't stop me from being close to you..please" Sam was desperate. But the cold man before her, wasn't going to fall for her schemes.
"I have things to do, please leave" he tried to be more polite.
"Fine... I'll go,but keep a promise to come to my birthday party.." Sam said before she went out.
Erick returned immediately she left.
"Throw that bag out, I don't want to see it in my office" he said, meaning the bag Sam had brought.
It looked expensive with diamond, but Draken didn't need that, what he needed was Emma.
~~~~~~~~~~
Later that day~~~~~
Emma had eaten up all the food by herself, and drank the bottles of beer she'd bought for herself. She was sad, and planned to drink her pain away.
The light drinker she was, she was knocked out by only two bottles and ended up sleeping on the table where she was drinking.
Like he'd promised himself, Draken came to see Emma, he came at a late time because he knew her sleeping schedule all too well.
He found her fast asleep on the table...out cold..she was drunk. He carried her to their room and tucked her into the bed.
"Don't leave..." Emma's voice stopped him before he could walk away...she was still asleep, but she could feel his presence there.
"Please don't go Ken...I miss you so much" Emma dreamt about Ken.
Draken lay down beside her and pulled her into his embrace, holding her tightly.
"I miss you too Emma, I'm sorry for hurting you like this" Draken apologized to her in her sleep, maybe she would hear him and forgive him.
Emma didn't know that Draken was there...in her drunk state, she half opened her eyes and saw a little bit of him, she could tell by his scent that it was him.
"Don't leave again please" she tightened her grip around his waist, crying helplessly, falling asleep again.
Draken wiped her tears with his bare hands and kissed her softly.
Only God knew if he'd get the chance to do this again in the near days to come, because soon,Emma was going to find out about his lies.
