Masquerade (3): The Dance

She was about to push him off but he whispered into her ears, "Dance with me for a while. Otherwise, I will order my hitman to shoot Song Tamlin. He's your person of interest tonight, isn't he?" 

He pointed at Song Tamlin and then to a server positioned upstairs, who was concealing a gun in his hands. The server looked their way and nodded. 

Mirae froze. She felt her skin crawl as Ash took her by the waist and led her to a dance. The other pairs around them were swaying romantically to the music but Mirae felt like throwing up. The very touch of this man disgusted her now. 

"You hate my touch now," he stated lazily. "Few months ago you couldn't keep your hands off me. Ah, times have changed." 

"What the hell do you want?" she gritted in disgust. 

"I just want to talk," he smirked. "Turn."
