\'And now, you are the last one,\' said the voice with the silver eyes. Liu Wei narrowed his eyes from where he stood in the shadows, watching the meeting between the other three men.
Were they purposefully keeping him out? If so, why?
Liu Wei could feel the rage inside of him growing. Stretching out his hand, he wanted to grasp the pretty flames that he saw and drag them kicking and screaming over to him. He cocked his head to the side, wondering why part of him was fighting the idea.
\'Kill them, then she is yours,\' the voice said again, ever so seductive. A snarl appeared on Liu Wei\'s face. She was his, and if they thought that they could take her from him, he would show them. \'Don\'t you want her to be yours?\'
Liu Wei closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Pushing down his emotions, he cracked his neck and adjusted the leather gloves on his hands. Killing them would make Li Dai Lu upset. He would rather kill himself than upset her. So they could live.
For now.
He watched as the three men stood up and looked at each other for a second. Whatever had happened had changed something in them. He didn\'t notice it on the other two, but he had spent too much time with Wang Chao not to notice something was different.
\'They took her from you, that is what is different. Now they carry a part of her in them and she has a part of them in her.\' Liu Wei was stunned when he heard what the voice said. How could that have happened? Why didn\'t they tell him?
\'They don\'t remember the stories, no one does. But you have options,\' came the voice, knowing that it had certain victory over Liu Wei.
"Options?" the man asked out loud, his eyes following the other three men as they climbed the stairs, probably going to find Li Dai Lu.
\'There is another one in this world for you, besides Li Dai Lu. You could have her. You wouldn\'t have to share. Doesn\'t that sound better?\' The voice was seductive and hypnotizing; as if pushing him to choose that answer.
Liu Wei snapped out of whatever rage he was in as soon as he heard the voice. Chuckling under his breath, he stepped out of the shadows and followed the others.
The voice was silent, not sure what his host was thinking. It moved deep in the darkness, a part of it crying out for something that belonged completely to it. It knew what it was supposed to do, the calls it was supposed to answer, the expected ending. But that was not what it wanted. The very idea caused it to go into a complete rage.
No one remembered the stories, but it did. And it would accept nothing less. Hopefully, the host was in agreement, otherwise… it let out a low chuckle, too soft for the host to hear. Retreating into the darkness for now, it waited for its time to strike.
It would come. After all, it was written in the stars.

I woke up from an amazing nap to see three men in the room staring down at me. I chuckled as my eyes looked over them, making sure that they were safe and unharmed. Wait, where was the fourth? Liu Wei, where was Liu Wei?!?
"Liu Wei!" I screamed, remembering my dream right before my nap with Wang Chao. The voices said that the men didn\'t belong to me. Could Liu Wei think that way? Was that why he wasn\'t here? "Liu Wei!" I yelled again, completely ignoring the guys trying to calm me down. I would calm down once Liu Wei got his ass in here.
The door opened and there stood Liu Wei. I closed my eyes and allowed myself to settle down. "Where were you?" I growled out. Oops, didn\'t mean to do that. Okay, take two.
"Where were you?" I growled, this time lower and more threatening. Liu Wei only laughed as he approached the bed. Chen Zi Han got up and Liu Wei took his space beside me.
"I am here," he replied giving me a gentle kiss on the forehead. I melted feeling so much better with the four men in the room.
\'They aren\'t yours,\' hissed the voice inside of me. I rolled my eyes, not caring about it.
"Don\'t leave," I demanded, knowing that I was probably going overboard, but the voices in my head were playing havoc with my emotions.
"Never," he promised me. "I will never leave you even if you get sick of me."
"Like that will ever happen," I scoffed. There would never be a time that I didn\'t want him around. Hell, I was either going to tie them up with a leash and collar and force them to stay by my side or kill anyone that either transmigrated or reincarnated. Honestly, it was a coin toss.
"Not going to happen, little girl," grunted Wang Chao in displeasure. I smirked in response. "I don\'t know, you would look cute in a collar and leash. Maybe I should find one with the spikes on it." I played it off as a joke, but I was not willing to lose any of them, and if it meant locking them in with me, then that was what I was going to do.
"I have no idea what is going on. But yeah, I could so see Wang Chao in a doggy collar," laughed Liu Yu Zeng as he handed me a fork with a peach slice on it. Catching the juices with my tongue, I moaned. It was nothing compared to the fresh fruit that I had in my space, but given the fact that they were canned in a heavy syrup, I was going to enjoy the shot of sugar in my veins.
"Alright, we are going to have to figure out what we are going to do with the people in the other house," said Chen Zi Han from where he was leaning against the wall. I raised my eyebrow, not realizing that that whole shit show had not been dealt with already. Wasn\'t that supposed to be the guy\'s call?
"Fine," I grumble, not really wanting to leave this nest with the guys, but duty calls, people need to be killed… \'And the world saved,\' came the third voice. I scoffed at that. I would do what I wanted to do, and nothing would stop me. Especially not the voices in my head.
Besides, I was pretty sure that they have medications to make them go away.

I was even less enthusiastic about being in the serial killer house the second time around, now that I had seen the basement, but the guys insisted that it was completely safe to go downstairs.
I was not convinced, but since I refused to let any of the guys out of my sight, Ren Rou Xuan was designated as the lookout. I eyed him up and down as he refused to meet my gaze. "He is good," said Chen Zi Han with a hand on the small of my back. "He is my second and the one that I think would be good taking over the logistical side of things back home."
If anything that Chen Zi Han said surprised Ren Rou Xuan, the other man didn\'t show it. "Do you know what you are supposed to do?" I asked him. He briefly looked down at me and nodded his head, not saying a word.
"Words please," I added with a sigh. He raised an eyebrow but didn\'t look at me again. "I am to stay here and keep the door open," he said in a monotone voice.
"And what do you do if someone wants to close the door?" I asked. Okay, so maybe I should add trapped in a basement to the long list of things that sets me off.
Surprised at my question, he looked at Chen Zi Han. Not getting whatever he needed from the other man, Ren Rou Xuan looked back at me. "You kill them," I said, wanting to get this whole thing over and done with just so I could go back home. "If someone approaches the door, tries to close the door, or even looks at the door one too many times, you kill them."
"Even if it is one of ours?" he asked, his forehead wrinkling in confusion. I turned to look at Liu Yu Zeng. Technically these were all of his men after all.
"Even if it is one of ours," confirmed Liu Yu Zeng, his face completely expressionless. I brushed past against him, rubbing myself over him. He gripped my fingers tightly as they passed by him, hidden between our two bodies, before releasing me. I understood him enough not to take offense.
In his world, anything and everything could be used against you and he didn\'t want to give that leverage to anyone. Especially if it meant something happening to me. I didn\'t need his public displays of affection to know how he felt about me. After all, all I had to do was look at his white flame to know how he felt.
"Let\'s get this crap over with," I said standing at the top of the stairs. Mind you, I absolutely refused to be the first one down there. With a low chuckle, Chen Zi Han went first as I waited for his call that it was safe.
