Chapter 8

Crystal's POV:

I went to office and Wendy informed me about my schedule. I had two meetings and a conference before lunch. I went for the conference and attended it.

"Your meeting is with the CEO of KC Enterprises", Wendy informed. I went and attended the meeting and finalized everything with the CEO. Now come my second meeting.

"Ma'am, your meeting is with Mr....", she was cut of by someone who entered my office. "Your meeting is with me", James said. I rolled my eyes and gestured Wendy to go out.

"Have a seat, Mr Smith", I said in a formal tone. "So, what's your purpose?", I asked in a cold tone. "What do you mean, Princess?", he asked with a smirk. "You very well know what I mean", I replied with a smirk.

"Indeed the Mafia Princess", he said with a smirk. "You thought I wouldn't recognize those brown eyes and that voice that made me angry?", I asked looking at him. He chuckled and said, "You're meant to rule." I shrugged my shoulder.

"You're the leader", I said with confirmation. "Maybe", he replied. "So what do you want?", I asked him straight forward. "Something really precious to your father and Blood Empire", he leaned and whispered into my ears. "And what is it?", I asked in a bored tone.

"You'll soon know. By the way you've got really great body", he said and got up from his place. "You...", I ran to him to attack but he defended and I ended below him. "You should keep your temper under control, princess", he said and kissed the top of my hand.

I rolled over and now I was on top of him. I smirked and said, "I don't need someone to teach me who himself is a coward to reveal his identity." His smirk faded and turned into a frown. He rolled us over again and whispered into my ears, "You shouldn't come to the result so soon but you know what you look damn hot when you're angry and especially when you kill someone."

I was about to speak when someone entered. "I'm really sorry, ma'am", Wendy along with a girl came but left when they saw us. I pushed him and got up. He patted my head like I'm some kid. "We'll meet again", he said and left. Yes, very soon. That time I'll see your real identity.

I sat on my chair. Someone knocked on the door. "Come in", I said and entered Wendy and that girl from earlier. "What is it?", I asked. "Ma'am, she came to meet you and said you called her here", Wendy said and I nodded. "You can leave now", I said to Wendy.

The girl sat on the chair in front of me. "What did you come to know?", I asked. She bowed to me and said, "Princess, he's really good at hiding his identity. He's the son of the great businessman John Smith. I didn't find any information related to the underworld and him. But yeah, there's an unknown gang who's the rival of our gang. I couldn't find anything about that gang as most of the people said that it vanished or some say that it's a ghost gang."

I didn't say anything and just listened to whatever she said. "You can leave now. Try to find more about that gang", I said dismissing her.

At home, I, Sean, my dad and grandpa were sitting in the living room discussing about the matter. I told them everything that I came to know. "I don't think they mean any harm to us because if they wanted that, they would have attacked a long time ago after seeing us so distracted finding about them", dad said.

"Dad, I think we should not take it lightly", Sean said. "Sean is right. Richard, never underestimate anyone", grandpa said. "What are you thinking, Crystie?", Grandpa asked. "I'm thinking about the thing that he wants from us", I said.

"I'm thinking the same", dad replied. "It can't be money because he's already rich", I said thinking about the possibilities. "And how do you know it's not money?", dad asked. "Because he's already rich and money isn't something that's precious to you", I said.

"Have you met him?", dad asked and I nodded. "His name is James Smith, owner of N.E Groups", I said. "James Smith?!", dad asked and I gave a nod. "Do you know him?", Sean asked. "I think I've heard about him", dad said.

"Of course, you must have heard. N.E Groups are our competitor", Sean said. "No, not that. I think I personally know him", dad said thinking about it. "N.E Groups....", I thought.

"Dad, which are the biggest gangs that start from N?", I asked. "Maybe we can find the out about the gang but this company's name because see our company's name is Empire Groups and our Gang's name is Blood Empire so maybe we can find out the gang's name by the company's name", I said to him.

"That's possible", Sean replied. "My granddaughter is so intelligent", grandpa said proudly. "If your discussion is over come and have dinner", mom said. We went and had our dinner.

"Where are you going?", mom asked. "To do some exercise", I replied. "You can do it in the morning", mom said. "I'm not sleepy yet and I'm not going alone. Bro is there with me", I said.

"Honey, let her go. You know her, she won't listen to anyone", dad said to mom. She sighed helplessly and said, "Fine but be careful." I nodded and went outside to find my brother. "Bro, you're going your way and I'm on my way", I said and took my car. I went to a lake and sat on a bench.

"What could be the name of the gang?", I asked to myself. "What do you think?", came a voice. I immediately took the position to attack. "It's me, James." I relaxed. He came and sat beside me.

"What do you want? Why are you doing all this?", I asked. "I told you that I want something precious from your dad", he said. "So you won't tell me", I said and he nodded. I sighed and got up. "I'll take my leave now", I said and went back to home.

Next day, I went to office with a great mood. I called Alex in my office. "How's the project going on?", I asked. "Ma'am, it's going nicely. I'm sure we'll gain much profit...", he said with his usual calm and innocent tone. I stared at him as he spoke about the project.

"You know you shouldn't act like that", I said all of a sudden. "Huh?", he gave a cute questioning look. I got up and walked to him. "You shouldn't be so innocent because it makes me want you more and more", I said as I leaned towards him.

"W-What do you mean?", he asked in an oblivious tone. "Damn, I'm losing my control. If you keep going like that, I'll just tie you up and ****", I said in a lusty voice. He stared at me with wide eyes.

"You behaving so innocently make me fall in love with you more and more. I act like a silly woman if I don't look at you for a day", I said as I leaned more and more closing our distance. "I just fucking love you", I said and kissed him.

He stiffened at my sudden action and didn't kiss me back. I held his hand and put it around my waist and kissed me. "I love you, Alex and I don't fucking care if you're divorced and have a kid because I love your kid too. I can just give my whole to you. I love you", I said as I pulled back.

"I don't care if you don't love me now but I'll love you and wait for you", I said to him. "I can't love you. You're my boss", he said. "**** that employer and employee relationship. I just love you and I want you and don't you dare look at other women", I said in a possessive tone.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it", he said left. Baby, I won't let you ran away like that. You can't run away.
