“Please… give me one more week,” I begged, my voice shaking as I stood in the middle of the dimly lit room.The air smelled of expensive cigars and danger. My heart was beating so loudly I was sure everyone could hear it.Three men sat across from me, their faces cold, unreadable… merciless.“One week?” one of them repeated slowly, leaning back in his chair. “Do you really think this is a game?”I swallowed hard, my fingers trembling as I clutched my bag tighter.“My father is sick… he just needs more time. I promise we’ll pay everything back.”The men exchanged looks, then suddenly burst into quiet laughter.Not amused laughter.Mocking laughter.“You don’t understand your situation,” another man said, his voice dropping dangerously low. “This is not about time anymore.”My stomach twisted painfully.“Then… what is it about?” I whispered.Silence fell over the room like a heavy storm.The man in front leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table, his eyes locking onto mine like a predator watching its prey.“It’s about consequences.”My breath hitched.“Your father borrowed money from the wrong people,” he continued. “And now… he can’t pay.”I knew that already.But hearing it like this… made it real.Terrifyingly real.“We can find a way,” I said quickly, panic rising in my chest. “I can work, I can—”“Work?” he cut me off with a cold smile. “Do you know how much he owes?”I froze.I didn’t.“It’s not something a girl like you can pay back in ten lifetimes.”My legs felt weak.“Then what do you want from us?”The room went quiet again.Too quiet.Something was wrong.Very wrong.And then—The door opened.Every single man in the room stood up immediately.The atmosphere changed in an instant.Fear. Respect. Power.It filled the space so heavily that I could barely breathe.I slowly turned around…And saw him.He walked in like he owned the world.Tall. Sharp. Untouchable.His dark suit fit him perfectly, every step he took calm, controlled… deadly.But it wasn’t his appearance that made my heart stop.It was his eyes.Cold.Empty.Dangerous.The kind of eyes that had seen too much… done too much.“Boss,” the men greeted him respectfully.Boss?My breath caught in my throat.He didn’t respond.His gaze was already on me.And it felt like I was being stripped apart… layer by layer… without him even touching me.“This is her?” he asked calmly.His voice was low, smooth… but carried a terrifying authority.“Yes,” one of the men replied. “The debtor’s daughter.”My hands clenched.Debtor’s daughter.That’s all I was to them.He took a step closer.Then another.Each step made my heart race faster.I wanted to move.To run.But my feet refused to listen.He stopped right in front of me.Too close.“Look at me,” he said softly.My eyes lifted slowly, meeting his.Big mistake.I felt like I was falling into darkness.“How much does he owe?” he asked without looking away.“A lot,” someone answered. “Enough to erase them completely.”Silence.My heartbeat echoed in my ears.And then…He spoke.“I’ll pay it.”
