Pay With Your Heart

Dan-Han felt a sigh of relief wash through him when he finally found her. One wouldn't believe the amount of stress he had endured and the commotion he had created in the other private rooms since he started looking for in the last half hour.

After she left the room he had been in with Jae-Hyun, he had rushed out to find her but he couldn't. She had suddenly disappeared. He looked at both side of the hall way, but there was no sign of her. And that's how he had started his search for her, combing through every room on the floor till he arrived here.

His eyes locked on her lazily lolled self on the sofa. His face was void of any positive expression as he slowly approached her.

Eun-sun remained seated as she stared at him unblinkingly, her heart racing uncontrollably till he finally appeared before her. She closed her eyes for a split second and opened them again.

"Helloo, Mr Lee" Drunk Eun-sun called out with an almost excited smile on her face, when inwardly she was cringing.

Dan-Han narrowed his eyes towards her, he noticed her flushed cheeks and the back and forth movement of her eyes and how she was trying to stabilize her body from swaying to the side. Was she drunk? His eyes darkened at the realization of her being drunk.

"You're drunk" He wasn't asking, he was telling her. His anger was slowly rising.

"I'm not drunk, just tipsy" Eun-sun managed to say back, making Dan-Han to glare at her. He had the urge to slap that small face of hers till her head was clear of the alcohol she had consumed, but then he couldn't do that to her.

"Good evening Mr Lee" Hei-Ran greeted with a bow. Dan-Han's eyes darted towards her little partner in crime who was seated beside her, he responded to her greeting with a slight bow. Looking at her slightly red cheeks, it was obvious she has also been drinking, but she was definitely better than this 'drunkard'.

What did he tell her about drinking with others? He'll teach her a lesson after now.

Looking at the two women hurdled close to each, he didn't even know what to do. AHe couldn't take Eun-sun and leave Hei-Ran there. He knew she was Eun-sun's roommate, and it would be improper to take Eun-sun without her. Eun-sun should be ready for him when she's more sober.

He was still staring at them, practically glaring at the petite girl who was about to say something.

"Mr Lee stop staring at me that way, you'll scare my little Ran. Tsk what a bully" She said glaring at him.

Dan-Han hissed out in frustration, he was really going to scold her later. He was about to respond to this nutcase girl, when someone cleared his throat beside him, to make his or her presence known.

It was at this moment that Dan-Han noticed the man seated on the sofa by his side. He had been to concerned about the drunken girls that he hadn't noticed the person behind him.

He turned to the side to find Ji-Sang looking at him at with a scrutinizing look. Dan-Han's eyes darkened at the realization that Eun-sun had been drinking with another man. She was really going to get it from him.

Ji-Sang shuddered under the man's intense gaze. He could feel the hair on his skin stand. He wondered why the man was looking at him with a murderous intent. Ji-Sang managed to compose himself and stood to his feet.

He greeted with a bow, but before he open his mouth say something like he intended to, Dan-Han asked first.

"Who are you?" Dan-Han asked with a cold and demanding tone.

"My name is Ji-Sang, and they're my friends" Ji-Sang found himself answering even when he didn't intend to. He was supposed to ask the man that question and not the other way round.

"Hmm" Dan-Han mumbled, giving him a scrutinizing gaze.

"I'll take them home" 'Party's over' he added in his mind before turning to the girls who were whispering into each other's ears while staring at him drunkily.

"But who are you?" Ji-Sang finally asked. Looking at Dan-Han, from his stature, to how expensive he was clothed Ji-Sang could tell he was not an ordinary man. But that wasn't his concern, he wanted to know his relationship with his friends.

Without looking at him, he replied, "Her boyfriend" Dan-Han didn't think twice before spitting out those words. He knew he had to give a valuable Identity to himself, if he really wanted to take her home. Saying he was her boss was nothing compared to being her friend, which was something he wasn't entirely sure of.

Ji-Sang didn't need a soothsayer to tell him who the 'her' meant. From the moment he had walked in he had noticed the way he has been staring at Eun-sun, and seeing the way she and Hei-Ran were currently giggling to themselves while staring at him, he didn't know what to believe.

'Was really her boyfriend?' Ji-Sang couldn't help but feel hurt. He felt a pang on his chest.

'Her boyfriend,' that was the title he had dying to hold for over a decade, but she had constantly denied him, under the pretence of not being ready, and now she was finally ready and dating someone.

Ji-Sang was lost in his thought that he didn't notice the Dan-Han was now staring at him murderously for staring at his woman.

"I'll be taking them" He announced with a tone of finality.

"No, no I'm not going home. Take her home. I'm staying with Ji-Sang" Hei-Ran protested, making all of them to look at her.

"You traitor" Eun-sun glared at her.

"I'm not going too" Eun-sun also declared. She also didn't want to go, most especially with Dan-Han. "I'll sta-" She swallowed back her words when Dan-Han's eyes narrowed into slits.

"I will go" She mumbled out subconsciously. She was getting used to complying with Dan-Han's demands without realizing it.

"Sure?" Dan-Han asked. He wasn't really concerned about anyone else other than his woman, but she was still Eun-sun's friend.

"Yes I'm sure" She nodded her head. She really didn't want to home. Maybe she could consume more alcohol and try to bury her problems of being single at twenty-eight in it.

Dan-Han nodded before turning to Eun-sun. He took a step closer, making her tense up immediately. She became alert when he bent down.

She yelped when Dan-Han scooped her from the sofa, "Put me down you brute" Eun-sun tried to wriggle herself from his arms.

"One more word and I'll punish you" Dan-Han warned sternly. Eun-sun's eyes flew open and she instinctively covered her lips. This devil was going to kiss her wasn't he?

Dan-Han scoffed in his mind when she covered her lips and shot him a warning gaze, as if daring him to try. He looked from Ji-Sang to Hei-Ran and muttered, "Good night" before walking away.

Eun-sun's heart was racing frantically as Dan-Han held tightly in his arms. His musky smell was wafting into her nose and it was making her dreamy and her eyes feeling heavy. She had to admit that he smelt nice.

'What are you thinking now, Park Eun-sun' She shook her head to take away such thoughts from her head and to prevent herself from giving into the effect of the alcohol in her system.

She had to stay awake, and guard herself from this cold and evil man.

She wanted to wriggle away from his hold and run for her dear life, but she knew she was too wasted for that, and also Dan-Han would really kiss her as punishment.

She kept looking at Dan-Han's stoic face as he carried her, the last piece of rationality in her head was telling her Dan-Han was going to grill her after now, it was written all over her face.

Whenever it comes to this man, she always seem to run out of luck. Eun-sun felt happy when she his phone started ringing. She was hopeful that he'll drop her and pick his call, but that never happened.

"Mr Lee your phone is ringing" Eun-sun pointed out when his phone started to vibrate in his pocket but he didn't show any sign of taking it, maybe because his hands were occupied.

"Let it be" Dan-Han replied. He could see through her plan. He had noticed the excited look in her eyes seconds ago.

She frowned and huffed at him. She decided to stay calm and let him do what he wants. Even when she was sober, she was always helpless around him.

Meanwhile in the another room, In-Ha was dialing Dan-Han's number, while he Jae-Hyun played with his phone.

"That bastard left us here?" In-Ha snapped when Dan-Han still didn't take his call.

"Well you left first. If anyone should be angry, it should be me. I used my precious night off to come spend time with you, but you both left me to chase women. So keep quiet" Jae-Hyun said without looking at him.

"I didn't go to chase women, I just wanted to feed my eyes. And did you say Dan-Han went after a women too?" He asked with surprised eyes. He had a late reaction to that.

Jae-Hyun paused and looked at him. "Why are you acting so surprised? He's a man after all" Jae-Hyun hissed at him before standing up.

"Where are you going?" In-Ha inquired but Jae-Hyun just walked out on him, left with no choice he followed after him out.

He had bumped his shoulder against Jae-Hyun who suddenly stopped on his strides, his eyes gazing at a particular direction. In-Ha looked at him and noticed the surprised look on his face.

In-Ha followed his gaze and saw the unbelievable sight of Dan-Han holding, no scratch that! Carrying a woman.

"I'm I seeing clearly?" In-Ha asked in stupefaction.

"I think we are. The brat is really getting better" Jae-Hyun replied in a small voice, almost audible.

In-Ha blinked his eye twice as he stared at the man approaching them. "Is that really a girl?" In-Ha stupidly asked, making Jae-Hyun glare at him.

"No it's an animal" He replied sarcastically, while In-Ha rolled his eyes at him.

In-Ha squinted his eyes at the lady in Dan-Han's arms as he closed in them

"Tigress?" He called out softly. His voice made the petite girl snap her neck towards his

direction. She heavy eyes flew wide open she spotted him.

"Pumpkin!" She chipped with excited eyes.
