Negotiation...
I kept staring at Okada being absolutely petrified. I felt like my body was getting weaker and weaker.
“W-what… do you mean…?” I muttered, trembling.
“We would not risk killing your precious Hiro, it could be troublesome…” Okada smirked, “But there are still plenty people in TK Industries and Aurelius Book Publishing that you care about… am I right?”
“I… I broke up with Hiro… and even before that he kept me away from any intel for a long time! I have no idea how could I get any information for you… I don't have an access…” I kept explaining feverishly.
“Oh, but you are wrong!” he laughed, “You might have got rid of their equipment, laptop, phone et cetera, but you still have your level 5th clearance.”
I looked at him confused. What could possibly be the reason to keep my access to the company?! I always thought that if peo

Embracing the Devil New kind of prison…
In the previous years I wished to travel through Asia… ironically now I was going around places due to being kidnapped! My dark sense of humor kept sending me thoughts of going sightseeing with those guys in black suits holding a gun against my head… That would be kind of interesting. Perhaps, I should be thankful that I wasn't physically or sexually abused this time… Of course, my ironic state of mind didn't prevent me from being petrified by fear.Me and my kidnappers were flying quite comfortably in a private jet. I wasn't tied nor gagged, furthermore I was conscious the whole time. They simply knew, I had zero chances to escape and stood no threat. I was being watched all the time, but none of my watchers even touched the strand of my hair. I figured they must have been told not to harm me in any way. Somehow, that only made me more anxious to know what was their reason to abduct me.I wondered if Hiro knew by then that I was kidnapped. Did he
Embracing the Devil The Game
For the next twelve hours I was treaded more like a guest than a prisoner. I was served dinner, I was allowed to take shower, and they even gave me something more comfortable to sleep. No one asked me to do anything… that made me anxious. I wondered if the special care they gave me was something like the final meal served to a prisoner right before a death sentence…After spending a nighttime struggling to make my eyes close, due to stress and jetlag, someone finally visited me… It was Okada and some other man that looked like a technician.“Good morning, Ms. Kowalsky. Did you sleep well?” he greeted me with a sarcastic smile.“Good morning, Mr. Okada… What do you think?” I replied, annoyed.“Truth telling, I don't care,” he chuckled then grabbed my wrist and dragged me to the desk, and forced me to sit on the chair placed right by it.The other man, who came with Okada, put a laptop a
Embracing the Devil Traitor
“What did he just said…?” I mumbled softly while my mind was crushing down.The air inside the room became suffocating. I wasn't able to take a single breath into my lungs. I couldn't understand what was happening. Did Aya truly gave them the intel they wanted, or were they playing with us?“No… no… I don't believe it… this cannot be true!” I muttered panicking.Suddenly someone opened the door to my room. Two men barged inside and dragged me out of there.“Where are you taking me?!” I screamed stumbling through the corridor, trying to keep their pace.None of them answered, they were like robots blindly following given orders. They took me to some other wing of the mansion and then I was thrown into a round room with no furniture inside. There was a large window on one side which almost filled the entire wall. There were three doors leading to that room. The one I went through was opp
Embracing the Devil Disclosure
Hiro took me to his apartment in Tokyo's residential district. My mind was blank the entire time we were driving there. He probably asked me how I feel once, I couldn't remember if I replied or not. When we entered, he showed me a bedroom and informed me that I should sleep there, and he would sleep on the sofa in the salon. After that he went to the bathroom to take a shower leaving me alone…I looked around. It felt like déjà vu. I couldn't stand him treating me like this coldly, indifferently. I wanted to run away from this place, from Hiro, from everything. It was unfair… I literally gave up on my life, I risked everything because I was unable to betray him, but ironically none of my words were believable enough for him. I couldn't explain my behavior even in front of myself, it was irrational. I guessed, I didn't kill all the love for him inside me yet, but seeing how I was unworthy of his trust could help finally end this process.I sa
Embracing the Devil Declaration
I couldn't sleep. Hiro held me tight in his arms making me put my head on his chest. Unlike me, he was sleeping peacefully. I kept listening to the sound of Hiro's heart, it beat slowly and strong. It helped me calm down, but I was still far from away from falling asleep. I had this strange feeling that if I closed my eyes now, he would disappear…His sleeping face seemed amazingly kind and innocent. I suddenly thought how different he might have been if it weren't for his uncle and the death of his entire family. Perhaps, he would fall in love with some beautiful female college student, or a daughter of some other CEO, and he would have a happy life… and we would have never met. But could we truly be together… after all that had happened between us? If he meant what he said before, it would be possible… but I didn't want to go back to how the things were. I wanted something more. I wanted a declaration.I tried closing my eyes, but somehow
Embracing the Devil Our date...
I stared at Hiro completely confused.“How can we go on date just like that…? Aren't you… hiding?” I asked.“The documents proving my identity officially came today. That's what this phone call was about… I can tell Wang Hiro goodbye,” he smirked.“That is great news… but what about your uncle? You are a big threat to him…” I tried understanding the whole situation.“I am, but he cannot do much about it now. He must have found out already that he won't find the thing he wanted in the vault, and that means he must have figured out that I have all the evidence against him,” Hiro snickered.“What are those evidence? What could they prove?”“There were video footage of my uncle bribing a government official, and a list of sums of money with names. There were all the people bribed by Okada and my uncle over the years. All the evidence were collect
Embracing the Devil Congratulations!
Hiro smiled warmly and grabbed my hand.“Let's get married, Ana… now,” he gazed deeply into my eyes.My mind went blank for few seconds, after that my heart started to pound feverishly, a wave of heat filled my body along with some tingling sensation.“You don't want to?” he asked, hesitantly.I glanced at him in silence, and smiled. Then looked at his hand, gently holding and caressing mine, and understood that this sensation I felt in my entire body was pure happiness…“Do… do you… have a pen?” I muttered with my eyes filled with tears.“Are you crying?” he asked, confused.“Yes,” I laughed shedding tears at the same time, “Give me a pen… I will sign it.”Suddenly, he got up and jumped on my side through the table to hug me.“I'm sorry… The ring, the ceremony… I will give it all to you later, w
Embracing the Devil Another step closer...
We had no time for our honeymoon, nor genuinely acting like newlyweds supposed to, but it was all right. I decided to help Hiro in any way I could for his plans to work out at last. His uncle had hard time acknowledging him in public, but he had no other choice since Hiro made sure that fact was widely spread by the media.Hiro and Melisa created a story where a young Tsuchida heir visited his father's friend when the rest of his family died in a tragic accident. The boy then suffered from a trauma for a long time and only now he decided to reveal his real identity… The press bought it. None of those articles mentioned Tsuchida Kosuke's involvement. There were no evidence that he had something to do with his brother family's death. Hiro realized long ago that the main culprit would never stand trial for this murder. His plan was to take everything his uncle took from him, and bring him to jail for something else…Tsuchida Ichiro, Hiro's father originally
