It has been a few days since Tao came into your apartment building and into your life. Since then he stayed over for dinner almost every night. It was safe to say that you started to fall for your mysterious neighbor. Every night you would go to sleep only to wake up sweaty and bothered from a dream that you had about him.

A dream where he would be on you, his strong arms holding him up just a little, so he could create a delicious friction between your naked bodies, so you would moan out his name and he would chuckle, tauntingly asking questions so dirty it would make your cheeks redden and your stomach clench. It was no different this night.

"Ngghh...Tao..."

"What is it, babe?"

"Tao...please...ju-AAAH!" your plea was cut short by your sudden cry when his hips ground roughly into yours.

"Did that feel good?"

His teasing voice was right by your ear, his lips brushing against it. You mewled, holding onto his shoulders tighter. He repeated his action and you whimpered.

"And just imagine how that will feel when I'm inside you."

"AAAAHH! Tao!"

Your dream was suddenly cut short when you were woken by the sound of something breaking. You sat up.

What was happening?

When you heard another bang, you realized with a pang of fear that there was someone inside your apartment. You quickly slid off your bed and inched towards your bedroom door, willing yourself and your legs to stop shaking. They didn't listen, almost barely holding you up as you opened your door, just a crack, so you could see into your living room. You could clearly see two dark figures walking around your apartment, checking anywhere for anything valuable.

What do I do?

You were about to reach for your cellphone when you heard something that made you freeze.

"Check the bedroom." a gruff voice said, sending fear into your heart. It only took a second for the guy to reach your bedroom and open the door.

"Haha! Jungshin!" The man's rough voice was smug as he yelled to his companion, who also made his way towards your bedroom.

"Look at what I found." You backed away quickly as they both continued towards you. You felt the wall on your back and pressed yourself against it, only to be grabbed by your hair and thrown onto the bed.

"Well, isn't she pretty?" Jungshin said to himself as he crawled on the bed towards you, his hand traveling under your night gown and up your bare thigh as the other guy took off his shirt and used it to tie your arms to the bed posts.

"NO, PLEASE! SOMEONE, HE-" your screams were cut off as Jungshin smacked you across the face. Hard. Tears stung in your eyes as the man grabbed your hair again and yanked it painfully.

"Shut up."

"AH!" you yelped wide eyed, as Jungshin slid his hand all the way up, under your panties, shoving 2 fingers into your womanhood.

"Well aren't you just a dirty little slut, look how wet you are." he said, smiling devilishly as he pumped his fingers in and out of you. You squeezed your eyes shut. You tried to imagine that it was Tao doing this to you. That it was his fingers pumping in and out of you.

You sobbed as the intruder added 2 more fingers in you. The other guy playing with your nipples and leaving bite marks all over your body. "Tao" You whispered

As soon as his name left your lips your attackers froze. "Did you just say Tao," Jungshin growled, "as in Zitao?"

What do these guys want with Tao? It doesn't matter, you decided. There was no way in hell you were going to tell these whacked up men anything. So you did what any sexually assaulted and scared as hell captive would do: you spit in thier faces.

"YOU STUPID FUCKING BITCH!" You heard a click and suddenly there was a burning pain across your belly. You looked down to see blood pouring out of a long gash that spread from hip to hip. Ok...so spitting in their faces wasn't the smartest idea.

"You just made a big mistake girl, now tell us where Zitao is." They both held switch blades in their hands now, but somehow you didn't care. Maybe it was the blood loss or the fact that you could barely feel your toes now. You weren't afraid.

Suddenly there was a sickening crack and your door flew open. A dark figure ran into the room, illuminated by the moonlight coming through the bedroom window. You gasped.

It was Tao.

"(y/n), ar-!" he cut himself off as he took in the scene before him, utter shock on his face. Here you were tied to your bed with your night gown pushed up to your chin and two guys on top of you. Not to mention the gash in your stomach or the blood on your sheets.

"Tao!" you whispered as fresh tears flowed from your eyes. Hearing his name snapped him out of his shocked state and anger flooded his features. His fists clenched and his eyes turned scarlet as he rushed forward at a speed that your eyes couldn't follow.

You saw Jungshin fly into your dresser and you screamed, his neck hanging at an unnatural angle. Before you realized it Tao was standing over you. Looking at you with softened eyes; your body started to tremble.

"Fuck, (y/n)." Tao cursed, cutting your bindings with his now sharp fingernails. As soon as you were free you pulled your night gown back down and backed yourself against your headboard, blood still flowing from your wound. He sat on your bed and held out his hand

"Please (y/n), please don't be afraid of me. I don't think I could take it." he said as he looked down at his lap. You couldn't hold it in anymore as you flung yourself at him, the force knocking him on his back. His surprise turned to sadness again as your body began to shake with the force of your sobs.

"Tao..Tao..Tao..Tao..Tao...Tao" you sobbed his name over and over into his soaked shoulder. He just held you tightly to his chest, his hand running through your hair. Murmuring apologies and safe nothings into the air. Soon your shaking stopped and your breathing steadied as you fell asleep.

You woke up the next morning to a clean bed and a fixed apartment. You were still in your ruined night gown and the gash on your stomach was bandaged but there were still bruises all over your body. But there was no Tao. You looked around and surveyed the damages, soon coming across a note that Tao had left for you.

To : (y/n)

By now I'm probably already gone, I'm sorry. I'm not leaving because of what happened I'm leaving because of what could happen if I stayed. As I'm sure you know, those guys were after me...they have been for awhile. They'll send more people and i can't risk you getting hurt even more. I hope you can understand my decision and I hope you can forgive me for the pain I've put you through.

Your a strong person, stronger than I could ever wish to be.
