"I know."

Ranpo says, leaning his head on his hand. You two were in a cafe together, with you having promised to get him some sweets. He knows you're a criminal. One the ADA had been searching for for ages.

Ranpo smirks. He has all the evidence, too. You just know it. "So much blackmail, so little time.. So i'll crack you a deal, sweetheart." He sits up straight, fixing his hat.

"Either you're mine, or I tell the agency who you are and get you arrested.. We got a deal, sweetheart?"

The way he calls you that so casually, yet so.. threatening.. It practically stops your heart. You know he isn't fucking around, either. Ranpo isn't one to fuck around when it comes to things like this. And its not like you can deny his deal either. You don't want to be arrested, especially not by the Armed Detective Agency, or the Hunting Dogs. You've heard too many scary things about Meursault. No way in hell is that happening.

You have no idea how you can get out of this, either. So, you had no choice but to accept his offer.

And now, here you were a week later, stuck tied up in his apartment because you 'tried to run'. He had convinced the Agency that you were sick, and needed to be 'taken care of' by your so-called 'boyfriend'.

He came back, his smile dropping to a frown the moment he set foot in. "You're a fool if you think you can run from me, you know. I'm doing this to keep you safe." Safe..!? More like keep you as his.! The way he so gently brings you into his arms makes you sick.

How on earth is this man 26.? Sometimes he acts like a child, stamping his foot and whining when he doesn't get his way, and when he's being menacing he hardly acts his age too. He instead acts like he's in his 30's!

Ranpo is an enigma.. And you're the cause to the effect. If you had just stayed away from the Armed Detective Agency, none of this would have happened.

But now, because you were a fool.. Ranpo has you, and he's not letting go.

"You know I love you. You just need to learn to behave, sweetheart."
