"Did you enjoy it?"

...

Kai smiled, pecking her forehead. "So...what are we?" He asked softly, remembering her rejection that had tipped him over the edge. He was waiting for an answer when he heard footsteps that sounded frighteningly familiar. "Get dressed. Now." He ordered firmly, fear in his eyes that showed clearly. He leapt up, shoving on his clothes before grabbing his pistol from the bedside table and checking the magazine. The door crashed down, a red dot already finding it's way to Lorelei's chest and another to Kai's. "Well well well....Son, you've disappointed me, but that's not new." His father drawled, his crisp suit obviously giving him an intimidating look. "Father" Kai said simply, acknowladging the frightening and cruel man. "Isn't this beautiful creature the one you were supposed to kill?" His father said, walking up to Lorelei and lifting her chin with his index finger, the movement meant to send shivers of fear down a victim's spine. Kai didn't respond, moving to shove his father away from her. "Even if it was, you're not touching her. At. All." Kai growled, blocking his father's view of Lorelei. All hell broke loose that instant. Men were charging Kai, others trying to reach Lorelei, and his father got a few hits to the mouth from Kai in his struggle to hurt Kai himself. Kai was yelling at everyone who came close to her or reached for either of them. "Back off! Fuck all of you! Don't touch her!" He repeated, shooting one of his own brothers and not feeling a lick of remorse. This brought Kai's father up short, looking at his dead comrade in horror. "You've turned your back on us. On me." His father stated, the words not questioning but not understanding either. One of the men raised his gun and shot Kai's arm. Kai shot that man as well. Disbelief flashed across the man's face, turning and marching out of the room while one of his men grabbed the body and slung it over his shoulder. "I'll pay a visit again sometime." His father promised, death laced into every word. Kai didn't respond, didn't react, just kept Lorelei blocked from the men as his father and bodyguards strutted off and he shut the door. Kai spun, looking over Lorelei. "Are you alright? Did they hurt you at all?" He asked worriedly, blood pouring from his wound at an alarming rate.

...

"Lorelei, they hurt you, didn't they? Come here, baby." He said softly, scooping her up and stifling a wince as his arm protested painfully. He set her down on the bed gently, grabbing a fuzzy blanket from the couch and wrapping it around her. He picked up her bruised ankle and clicked his jaw angrily. "I will kill them all." He growled under his breath, grabbing the first aid kit while she sat there. He was getting dizzy, his whole right side covered in his own blood and stumbling once. He wrapped her ankle gently, being careful not to arrous her too much. "Anywhere else, princess?" He asked softly, kissing her temple and holding her close with his left arm. Fuck this hurts... He thought, his right arm nearly dripping red

...

Kai tossed the cloth to the side, not worried about the pain. His eyes followed her every move, watching her protectively and adoringly. "You're so beautiful. Now what were we talking about before we were so very rudely interrupted?"

...

Kai sighed and nodded, cleaning up until there was hardly any blood except the very few spots he couldn't get out of a pillow so he just threw it into the wash with the blankets and rug. He walked to the bethroom and stripped, getting into the shower beside her and holding her close to his chest. He grabbed the shampoo and silently started cleanning her hair, massaging it into her hair with gentle and careful hands.
