Star Crossed In Time

My heart nearly comes to a screeching halt as I look up to the unmistakenly handsome face. Bai Lei's smile slightly falters as his dark eyes go to my hair. My hair!!! I got so scared that my hair nearly turned white!! Literally!

I quickly calm down and my black hair is back to being as dark as night but Bai Lei doesn't look convinced. His dark eyes flicker to me but there was something else lurking in there... I just didn't know what!

Bai Lei's words earlier were so low that only the two of us could hear. He suddenly reaches out and grabs me around the waist before pulling me into his lap. I suck in and go to fight but he quickly leans in and says "Behave or you will regret it."

I awkwardly sit in his lap as the other men around us laugh with joy while saying "This is the first time I've seen my Lord take such a liking to a woman. I'm glad!" Bai Lei lifts his cup while saying "I plan on taking her with me tonight."

I choke and go completely stiff as the other men laugh and cheer while saying "It's good to be young and attractive. I bet you have no problem seducing the women." More laughter follows as Ming Ming begins to play a soft tune.

Sister Mei looks over to me with concern but I quickly give her a strained smile while waving her off. Bai Lei's large hand suddenly moves up my side making me shiver. I turn and glare at him but he continues to drink his wine like he didn't do anything.

Once the cup was empty he holds it out for me to fill. I grit my teeth and fill the glass while Bai Lei watches me with cold eyes. He was closely looking at my face and occasionally he would frown. After filling his glass, I slam the jar down on the table with a sweet smile.

Suddenly, I feel it. Power. Strong, oppressive power that nearly takes my breath away. I look over to Bai Lei with a new fear. His cold eyes flash with something like surprise before the power completely disappears. I take a deep breath and try to relax the best I can on this man's lap.

I look over to see Ming Ming still ignoring me while playing the instrument. I sigh in discontent as Bai Lei grabs my chin. He turns me to face him while asking "What's so interesting about the woman playing the music? You've been staring at her since you came in."

I bite the inside of my cheek realizing that I had screwed up. It doesn't matter! As long as I can reunite Zhen and his Granddaughter, I don't mind being pulled back into the Devil's lair. I turn to the Devil himself and give him a sweet smile.

"I just need to talk to her for a moment. Can I do that?" I ask in a sweet voice. Bai Lei grins at me but he tightens his hand around my waist as he says "No, I'm about to leave and you're coming with me. You'll have to shoulder your punishment once we get back."

I sputter at him as my panic begins to rise. "Punishment!? For what?" I ask in a horsed whisper. The Devil's smile grows darker as he says "My wife ran away from home and I find her here... dressed like this while serving other men." I look at him completely stunned.

"We aren't even married!" I hiss at him but all he does is tighten his grip while saying "Close enough" The music suddenly stops making my already growing panic to shoot through the roof. Ming Ming gets up and bows before turning around to leave.

I try to get up but Bai Lei holds on tight. I turn around and glare at him while saying "If you don't release me, you'll regret it." Bai Lei's smile grows as he says "I highly doubt that." I scoff at the cocky bastard. I reach down and grab his manhood with a death grip.

The look on his face is absolutely priceless... His hand holding the cup tightens and the poor cup shatters. The men in the room turn to look at him in question. Because of the way I'm sitting on his lap, the men can't see what I'm doing.

"I guess I don't know my own strength..." Bai Lei says between his teeth. The men go back to laughing to talking as he looks back at me. "You surprise me once again... I didn't think..." I tighten my grip causing his words to freeze. "No matter how strong you are, you're still a man with a weewee. Let. Me. Go." I say with a wicked smile.
