“What are you doing, Mei?” I can’t hide the amusement in my voice.
“Lady, this girl’s violent.” Toru shakes his head and helps the other woman up rather roughly. “Stay away from her and Kazuo.”
“Not a problem.” The woman from the floor stumbles away into the crowd.
“Let’s go.” I jerk my chin toward the exit.
“Hey! I’m not violent!” Mei swipes at Toru but can’t reach him.
“Sure you aren’t.” He drains his drink, tosses the glass on the table, then leads us from the party.
“Are you going to explain yourself?” I carry her down the stairs, several onlookers whispering and staring. I don’t give two shits if they want to gossip their faces off about us. Tonight is my night. The Itos are going down, and Mei is in my arms. That’s all I care about.
I sit her in the car and slide in beside her as Toru starts the engine. Pulling her into my lap, I slide one hand up her thigh and run my thumb along the edge of her panties. “Mei?”
Her lips part, a light sigh coming from her, but she doesn’t talk.
“Mei, I need you to tell me what just happened.” I slide my thumb higher and delve beneath her panties, feeling the heat of her wet cunt.
She wriggles, her breathing speeding up. “I’m mad at you.”
“Oh?” I slowly stroke my thumb across her clit. “Why’s that?”
“Because you–mmmph.” She bites her lip as I move more fingers beneath her panties and slide one inside her. “Because you–” Her head drops back, and I fasten my lips to her throat.
“Yes?” I murmur against her skin as Toru grabs the rearview mirror and yanks it sideways so he can’t see us as he drives. “What did I do, little rebel? What made you so mad?”
She gasps when I add another finger inside and cup her breast with my other hand. I squeeze it, then grip the top of her dress and pull it down so I can feel her smooth skin and the hard peak of her tit.
“She, uh, she said …”
I lean down and bite her nipple, then suck it into my mouth as I return my fingers to her clit. “What did she say?”
Her legs open more, giving me better access, and I take it and run my fingers up and down her slit. “So wet for me, little rebel. I could spread you right now and lower you onto my cock. I bet I’d stretch you perfectly.”
She moans, then stiffens and pushes at me. “No!”
“No?” I press two fingers inside her again.
She moves her hips, riding my fingers, but then stops again. “No, Kazuo.”
“Why no?” I pull out and circle her clit. “Why say no when I can feel how much you want this?”
“Because that girl said you fucked her!” she yells.
Toru snorts a laugh.
I pull my fingers from Mei’s panties and lick them clean as she watches. I’m smiling, enjoying her little bout of jealousy.
“Why are you smiling?” She huffs and tries to pull away. She gets nowhere.
“Because you taste like heaven.”
“Stop laughing! You were with that girl!” She wrinkles her nose. “You’re a player.”
“A player?” I laugh, the amusement rolling from me as Mei frowns. “Mei, I’ve never seen that girl before in my life. Whatever she said to you was a lie, little rebel. When I told you I wasn’t interested in marriage proposals from other families, I meant it. That includes being trapped by any woman with an eye to use me to get pregnant or gain clout among the Yakuza.”
She turns her head, her gaze quizzical. “You mean …”
“I mean you’re the only one I’ve ever wanted, Mei. You’re the only one I’ve ever dreamed of starting a family with. You’re the only woman I’ve ever hoped to marry.”
She blinks hard. “So you mean you never—”
“I mean I love you, Mei. I want you to be with me always.” I kiss her hard, showing her just how much I believe in us. I want her to believe it, too. Because now I know—more than I’ve known anything in my entire life—that we belong together. Forever.

Mei
He loves me? I stare into Kazuo's handsome face and wonder if I’m dreaming. I reach up, pressing my hands to his cheeks. “You love me?”
“Are you really so surprised, my little rebel? I’ve barely let you out of my sight since I first laid eyes on you. I lose my fucking mind whenever I even think of something happening to you. I never want to experience a world that doesn’t have you in it, Mei. What do you think all of that means?”
“That you love me!” I squeal, my excitement uncontrollable. “My plan worked. I got you.” I sit up straighter. I’m sure my face is full of smugness, as it should be. All these bitches that have been trying to get their hooks into Kazuo, and I’m the one that caught him.
