The Sins of Anna

Chapter Twenty Two

Permission Granted

"Ren!" Malaki shouted as he barged into my office. I turned my focus from staring outside the window.Hashiro Cyber Tech was back in business. The explosion had done major damage but, since Anna had been named the head of the Silver Serpents Clan I have focused on establishing new foundation for the company. It has been 5 months since that fateful day. I can't stop thinking about her. Malaki and Mike are still in touch and I've ordered them to keep me updated on her which is why when Malaki busts in so frantic calling me by name which is so unlike him I can't help feeling a knot in my stomach as I calmly give him my entire attention. I wait for him to speak. Trying to read the panicked expression on his face.

"Well," I say growing impatient.

"The thing is my lord," Malakiv stumbles for his words.

"Jesus Christ; spit it the fuck out already!" I can feel rage filling in me, watching him calm down while he talks despite how he burst in here like it was no big deal.

"Forgive me my lord, it's just that Anna she has a meeting with the Black Panther Clans Elder Berston." And there it is the alarm bells.

"Why the fuck is she meeting with them?" I push off the wall grabbing the phone on my desk to start dialing her number! I feel the instant need to call her. No way I'm letting her go near that estate.

"If your going to get that concerned for her safety then bring my little sisters ass home." Malaki snorts mockingly. I glare at him and slowly put my phone back on the desk.

I roll my eyes and snort at his remark noticing how he purposefully added the little sister. I rub my chin trying to figured out why in the hell she was meeting with that clan. They not only tried to kill me but her as well. And my sources have said that they are protecting, though more like using the last of the golden dragon clan that they got there hands on to test and experiment Candy on. David hasn't been seen since that day he hurt Mike and nearly killed Anna. Yet shes going to walk right into the estate where he very well could be hiding. My jaw tightens more at the thought. Why?

"Silverman called asking for permission for them to stay in town as they will have to do business in our territory it seems." Malaki slides the information across my desk from his report he had been holding that I hadn't noticed until now. I can't help wondering why the hell she didn't call herself.

"Call Anna and tell her she can come however; she and her men are to stay at our estate, or else the answer is no and they will be seen as an enemy stepping into our territory." I reply my jaw tight. I can see Malaki's dumb smug look spreading across his face it tells me everything he's thinking. It's a look of if you want to see her just say so, damn bastard. I look out my window again waiting for him to leave. The sun is setting. I can't help thinking of what in the world shes thinking. I haven't heard from her in five months. There have been rumors that her father has been pushing her into marriage this couldn't be that, could it? Elder Berston does have a son who is still single hes the second child but he is older at least 43 now. I feel my blood boil at the thought, that fucker better think again if he's going to marry my woman off to anyone. Just because we aren't together doesn't mean I am going to let her go.
