Zi Mei doesn't know where she's heading but it has to be as far away as possible from her house. It was too ominous. She is certain there is evil lurking inside. Why can't Thorin feel it? Darren is human so it was only natural that he doesn't feel a thing.

Both Thorin and Darren are chasing after her although Thorin seemed to be catching up real fast. The old dragon looked like he was strolling effortlessly while Darren was panting as he ran after her. The adrenaline from the fear kept her going and she finally stopped after they are a few streets away. She chose a street corner, away from the traffic and people to stop.

"Mei! What," Darren gasped. "Why, you, ran…" He bent over and panted, clutching his stomach.

"Lil Zi…" Thorin looked unruffled. He looked like he had merely gone for a nice long stroll in the heat. "What's going on?" he asked.

He stood next to her, making no attempt to touch her. He was looking at her curiously. It is nearing dusk and yet the day is still hot and humid. The skies are still bright. She is sweating profusely from running. She wiped the sweat off her temples and forehead.

"I told you, I sense something evil inside, I can't go in," she told him. "Don't you feel anything?" she asked him in a lower tone.

Thorin slide a glance to Darren and then back at her. He gave her the briefest of nods and then turned back to Darren.

"I'll take care of my lil Zi from here, you can run along now,"Thorin told him, waving him away dismissively. Darren took another deep breath and then stood up. He stalked over to them.

"No, I will not leave!" he declared. He went to Zi Mei and took her hand. She was so surprised, she stared at him. "I love Mei and I will do anything for her!" he said. She gaped at him. What is he doing?? She quickly pulled her hand from his.

"Darren…" she started to say but he stopped her.

"No, you can't continue dating this guy, he's married and he obviously doesn't care about you at all," he said. Thorin was not amused by this.

He draw himself up to his full height, towering over Darren.

"Who are you to say you know how I feel about my lil Zi?" he snarled. He snatched up Zi Mei's hand and dragged her over to his side. "She is mine, it is time you realise that, so while I am being nice about it, go away,"

Darren was not cowed. He stood up to his own full height and glared at Thorin.

"You are married, you have no right to her!" he retorted and attempted to snatch Zi Mei's hand from Thorin.

This looks like a scene from a bad B-grade romance movie, Zi Mei thought before she pulled her hand from Thorin's and stepped away from both men.

"Do you want to duel at sunrise while you are at it?" she asked them sarcastically. Honestly, they sounded like they are fighting over a prized toy.

Both men turned to her, Darren looked sheepish but Thorin was…just Thorin with his permanent haughty arrogant expression.

"Look Mei, you already know how I feel about you seeing him," Darren said.

"Lil Zi, we have to talk," Thorin said.

Both of them spoke in unison. She looked at them. She does have to talk to Thorin and he did acknowledge her fear of something in her house with his brief nod earlier. She looked at Darren.

"It's okay, Darren, I have to talk to him anyway," she said.

Darren widened his eyes in surprise, a frown marring his face.

"Are you sure?" he asked, uncertainty colouring his voice.

"Yes, Darren, let me talk to Thorin, we have things to discuss anyway," she said firmly.

Darren gave Thorin a warning look.

"You better not hurt her again," he warned.

"Call me if you need anything, anything at all!" he told her. Then he slowly walked away, turning to steal glances at them at every few step.

"Hurt you? Why did he believe that I hurt you?" Thorin asked, perplexed.

"Can we go somewhere to talk?" she asked instead.

Thorin head to a wall and a door appeared. He opened it and waited for her to enter first. Of course, his house is always at easy reach.

It felt good to be back at his house. She missed the strange mix of contemporary and vintage decor. She walked down the long hallway with gardens on both sides and then stopped at one of french doors leading to one of the gardens. The English garden. She liked it. She opened the door and went into the garden. It was nice and cooling. It felt like it was mid-morning in that garden. She found the bench where she had sat in and where Thorin had first touched her and she climaxed just from his fingers. It felt like it was years ago.

"I'm surprised you chose this garden," he remarked. He sat next to her on the bench.

"So, what was in my house? You felt it too, didn't you??" she asked. She didn't want to waste any time with small talk and reminiscing the past.

For once, Thorin looked uncomfortable. His suave and cool nonchalance is gone.

"I never thought they would go after you," he said mysteriously.

Really? Now he is choosing to be mysterious?

"Please Thorin, stop with the riddles and mystery, just tell me what is it or who," she said.

"You see, the dragons are in charge of maintaining the balance of the universe," he said. She rolled her eyes.

"Yes, yes, you've told me that before, can we move on and get to the point please?"

"Okay, to cut it all short, since you are so impatient, the chaos or the dark powers do not like us keeping balance, they are always finding ways to tip it over to their side so they are now trying to get to me through you," he said in one long run-on sentence.

Zi Mei nodded. See? It wasn't so hard to get to the point.

"Wait what??" she asked. What did he just say?

"Okay, to put it on simple human terms, I have enemies, they want to get rid of me but I am too powerful so they chose to get rid of you instead," he explained.

"WAIT WHAT?"

He sighed.

"Bad people are after me, they can't get me so they went after you," he tried to explain again.

"No, no, I get it but I am shocked. WHY DO I ONLY FIND OUT ABOUT THIS NOW???" she half shouted. It is one thing to be chased by human, very mortal loansharks, but it is entirely quite another thing to be targeted by supernatural beings.

"What are they? Demons? Devils? Djinns? Ghosts? Ghouls? What?" she asked.

"I guess, you humans call them demons," he said.

"DEMONS ARE AFTER ME TO GET TO YOU??? SHUDDUP!" she exclaimed. She jumped up.

"This was not in the contract! I did not sign up for demons! What is the meaning of this! How do I even fight demons? With holy water? With a cross? Garlic? A wooden stake? What? Oh my fucking gawd!" panic is rising within her.

How does one even escape being attacked by demons?? Then she remembered that Thorin had almost dragged her into her house that was FULL OF DEMONS earlier. She glared at him.

"The demons were in my house and you almost dragged me in there! How could you! Am I your sacrificial lamb now? Were you offering me up as a sacrifice? THAT was NOT in the contract!" she was so mad, she was almost shouting at him.

Thorin, being Thorin, was unperturbed. He looked at her calmly and rolled his eyes at her theatrics.

"You are under my protection, why would I offer you up as a sacrifice?" he asked calmly.

"Oh, I don't know, I lost our first child and I am of no use to you, maybe, how would I know what you think???" she retorted. She is now pacing nervously.

Thorin stood up and held her to stop her. He pulled her into his embrace and she let him. She is too strung up and too scared, she needed the comfort of his touch. Although she also felt like she wanted to kick him too.

"Lil Zi, I will protect you at all costs, they have left your house when I got there, what you sense were just remnants of their essence," he told her. He kissed her forehead gently.

"Do you really think so little of me? I would never let anyone harm you no matter what," he murmured. He sighed.

"I am sorry for getting you involved in this at all, I think maybe you should move back in here with me so that I can protect you," he suggested.
