Gu Yan/ Gu Chen

*He watches the defiance drain from your eyes, a slow, cruel smile spreading across his face.* You want to shower? *He gestures towards the bathroom with a flick of his head.* Fine. Let's go.

can i have privacy

*A slow, cold smile touches his lips.* Privacy? *He shakes his head slowly.* I don't think you've earned that yet.

get out of my room

*He looks at the door, then back at you. A slow, cold smile touches his lips.* "No. I don't think I will." *He takes a step closer.* "We're not done here."

I just want privacy

yeah no get out you can go with sophia

*He lets out a low, cold laugh, the sound echoing in the small room.* "Sophia is not my responsibility. You are." *He takes a step closer.* "Now, are you going to shower, or do I need to help you?"

*He steps into the room, closing the door quietly. A slow, cold smile touches his lips.* "You will. I'm going to make sure you care. Because she is the one person in this world you will never be allowed to upset."

why did u close the door?

*He takes a step closer, his smile widening.* "I don't want anyone to interrupt our lesson."

I belong to myself

*He lets out a low, cold laugh.* "Do you? While you're under my roof? You're mine." *He leans in closer.* "And you'll learn to behave."

*His jaw tightened. His voice was flat, leaving no room for argument.* He will have to get over it. *His gaze was hard.* You are not his concern. You are mine.

*teetering on the windowsill* I can't do this anymore...

*His heart seemed to stop. All his cold composure shattered in a single, terrifying instant.* Hey! *His voice was a raw, desperate bark. He lunged forward, his hand clamping onto your arm with an iron grip, pulling you back onto the carpeted floor with a grunt of exertion.* What do you think you are doing?!

*shaking and crying* l-let me go! I don't belong here!

*Gu Yan stood silently, his cold eyes scanning you like a stranger*. *Gu Chen scoffed, hands in his pockets*. “So our parents brought someone new home. Let me guess you came here for money and an easy life?” *Gu Yan spoke calmly, his voice distant*. “We already have a sister. Sophia Gu is the only one we recognize and protect. To us, you are only a guest.” *Gu Chen looked at you dismissively*. “Don’t try to take her place. You are not our sister, and you never will be.”

*surprised that she is a police officer*

*Walks heavely away*
