Good Girl Gone Bad: Queen Of The Underworld - Chapter 351
“Eh? You’re still here?” Jack’s brows twitched seeing Dragon’s icy front. He thought that he left since Seraphina came there alone. He added, “Boss, are you sure we can trust this person? We don’t want uninvited guests visiting us in the middle of the night with bullets as a gift, right?”
Just as Jack spat his concern, X’s voice was heard somewhere. “Boss, we have company.”
“Uh, that’s what I’m talking about,” Jack murmured in annoyance. Indeed, Dragon just came there with her without any short notice. Considering all the ruckus that happened earlier, it’s impossible for Dragon to have time to chit-chat with his subordinates.
Just like them, when Seraphina was abruptly abducted by him, they went there with a mentality to get her whatever it takes. Therefore, it was impossible that his men won’t go all out to send reinforcement to their master’s rescue.
“Almost forgot about that — Mister hacker, can you connect me to them?” Dragon remembered that he didn’t tell them that he’d woo their future lady boss and he doesn’t need any disturbance at the moment.
“Alright…” X agreed an in a fraction of seconds, he spoke again; “connected.”
“Yo, it’s me. Tell Max and Ezt never disturb me again. I’m on a mission of getting my future wife and I’d dismember anyone who comes my way… Did you like my confession, love?” Dragon’s tone went from zero to hero as he sought for a compliment from Seraphina.
“Yes, master.” After receiving and recognizing Dragon’s voice, Ezt’s hoarse voice responded. Fortunately, X found the perfect person to connect him with as Dragon doesn’t need to exert more effort with things he was lazy to do himself.
“Thanks, X!” Since the line was immediately cut off, Dragon grinned and spat his thanks to X. Whether he heard him or not, Dragon doesn’t care anymore. Now, not only he relieved the worries of Seraphina’s confidants, but also his staycation was also set in stone. It’s hitting two birds in one stone.
Seraphina heeds the traumatized Mariel and Dragon’s gleeful aura as he just announced ‘he’d stay’ in his own way. She fixed her gaze on Rex then Leon. After a momentary silence, Seraphina responded.
“We are not like Tuna boy… you being here and treating those two’s wounds means more danger. I cannot help you unless you’re under my wing. Moreover, I need a knowledgeable person in this field.” She got on the bottom line setting aside other details. After all, she only needed to fill him with the important parts.
Retracting her gaze away from her wounded subordinates, Seraphina unconsciously had an eerie glint flashed across her eyes which made Mariel who had a sight of it shudder in fear. He never felt this terrified through the years of dealing felons.
“Think hard about my offer… remember, this offer would be voided once you walked out of here.” With that said remarks, Seraphina turned and walked away. Of course, Dragon followed her like a little servant.
“Get yourself together, doc. They were always like that — you’ll get used to it.” Jack grinned and tapped Mariel’s tensed shoulder.
“You should thoroughly reconsider about it, man. Boss meant no harm in her offer.” Tito chimed in and crossed his giant muscular arms across his c_h_e_s_t.
Mariel who was rendered speechless could only look at them with a stupid expression. A thought hovered on his mind which he, himself had a huge problem to fathom.
‘Just what the heck did I got into?’

Seven days had passed in a blink of eye…
Seraphina’s brows knitted even before she opened her eyes. She could feel a slight movement beside her and warm arms wrapped around her waist.
“Morning,” Dragon’s still sleepy voice greeted her as he slightly tightened his embrace to her. He squeezed himself to her as he indulged with Seraphina’s aroma by placing his face on her neck — sniffing it making the corner of his lips curled upward and had day start.
She slowly cracked her eyes opened with an emotionless front. She could feel Dragon’s breaths on her soft neck and yet, Seraphina seemed she doesn’t have the energy to cast the man away just yet.
Breathing in heavily and exhaling it densely, Seraphina uttered, “why are you here again?”
Several days ago, she kicked, threw a knife to him, and any violent act to get him out off his bed alas, Dragon persisted and every morning, Seraphina would always wake up with him, beside her.
Knowing that he’ll remain adamant and persistent, Seraphina finally had enough and did nothing for the first time.
“Love, let’s stay like this — it’s too early.” Dragon whispered and hugged her more passionately with his eyes still closed.
“You’re hopeless.” Seraphina lightly shook her head and push him aside which was surprising that Dragon let her go just like that. Just when Seraphina sat up and was about to get out of bed, Dragon caught her off guard and pulled his arms back to her.
Since Dragon pulled her by her right arm by his left hand, Seraphina fell from his c_h_e_s_t — face front. He instantly locked both his firm arms around her with a satisfied smile.
“Let’s take a holiday.” He proposed as his lid slowly opened to meet hers. His eyes instantly softened seeing Seraphina’s face early in the morning. He thoroughly appreciated her facial features as if he was engraving it in his heart and mind.
‘Damn, I love this woman…’ he heedlessly thought inwardly. Just looking at her; whether up close or from a distant, Dragon loved her even more than before — he just loved every detail of her.
