"You were happy yet You ran away. What is it that you have to hide from?" He asks, his gaze pinning me to place.
He was intense, Like I am the mission he has to do.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJOmA4Ggov
I knew it's his group he would want to protect first and if I don't tell him how will he know whom to protect me from.

It was a burning feeling since I started there. I had watched people die I associated with, made plans for another night. But when I saw dead and blast figures, bypassing me everyday,
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtldWLbJaAN
I stopped. I isolated myself. Like others.
Work and me.. that was it.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeL5Dnv3DW
"There ain't any story, mister." I say.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkiSBo8XJw
I hardly gave any expressions.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDbabAv5Xz
"I just want to be free. Feel the freedom. But since they nourished, cultivated and trained me till now plus I'm the one among a few. They don't want to let go. They hunt me down and will still try. I've been groomed to serve them till death comes to take me since childhood. I've signed a fuckin contract." I fall back on the chair in defeat and speaking rapidly and rising in spirit.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8pRcoOLNf
I showed my anger.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I7EixFOF9
Weakness.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NRgDfWAzz
I need to recover soon. I can't go on like this. I take a deep breath.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSboKAn2VGk
"Hmm." folding hands over the table he leans back, his chest muscles define more as he stretches, I looked away.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU979pYKmX
"You have a copy?" It's the root, so that's what he asked. I knew it was coming.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TnCXHWbHq
"No." I say. I was simply made aware of my boundations. I was never given a proof.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uEgGUSzjV
"I was exposed to the truth of my situation when I tried running away the first time." I reason.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97Go7J21hs
I strictly focused on his death stare. Because if I go down, it's a rough valley of thick tanned muscles.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YOJrK1o9A
I shouldn't be salivating when I've seen many before him who were nearly stripped to nakedness. But..
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTASjkJfDkg
This man is different, something about him makes me thirsty.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjjuj63j4m
I just want to touch him. I blink, blink and Blink again.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGafdEvx0O
"That's the barrier." He says more to himself.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebsHDDojRx
"All right! Until we figure out something for you. Carry on doing as you were told." He says dismissively, I stand. Leave. Head down.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoG6MUNmB9
"Derrick! Come out!" He barked and I stiffened. I didn't suspected someone else was listening to us too.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr1UnWuZX7
Was he evesdropping ?or he was a part of this and I didn't knew.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwdXNLxDU2
I turned again and faced my Interrogator as Derrick came into view, He had been outside the door! "Was he supposed to be a part of this?" I seethed pointing my finger at the intruder and focusing on Marco.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7QsqQfqER
He does works for him, but that doesn't mean he has the right to come in and leave on me on his own accord, no one does!
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlQ4T0NkTo
This is my story!
My part of life!
My emotions!
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq4X0uy4WS
It doesn't matter they already know. But what I tell in person, I need to know that person or a number of persons.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFNJq48xj3
Someone from the back comes to me and says he knows what I didn't tell him, when he ain't part of the group he knows what he shouldn't. It fumes me.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmTVzDh1c2
"I heard him just as we were finished." Vettorio reasoned and I searched his face for the truth.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc211SsYIQP
He isn't lying.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu5FjsQxCo
"Ivy, as a bodyguard it's my duty to protect my boss at all times. And for complete security I have to keep an eye on everything, especially an outsider." I heard Vettorio jaw tick but I didn't move, my wild stare was fixated on Derrick's.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtB0ZFPi2G
He was right on his part. He definitely should'nt trust a trained assassin alone locked in a room with his boss.
But I felt exposed.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaTjrLnRZs
Vettorio broke the hot silence. "Ivy, until you are in my care, you are a part of this family.." Derrick eyes narrowed and broke from mine to meet Vettorio's in disapproval and I stared into the darkness acknowledging what he just said.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FVVKT3Tmf
This man can say something so important to an outsider like me.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRYABZKhZB
From what I see, His decision is only based on the truth I gave him.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHeBOkhLDP
If I had lied with the same seriousness, he'd be helping me the same, but only on the basis that he believes me.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ956K1OXtdk
I met him nights ago and he already put his trust on me.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDXtb3171r
I have no rightful words to utter.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiTHhzdVmt
Vettorio and Derrick closed in on each other, their eyes in a silent battle. I was left alone for the moment. The information was heavy. It had it's consequences and benefits, it is, in a way, similar to my previous life.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLVEWJiw0h
"..So, Ivy," This time his tone of voice was even more serious, commanding and deeper. I swallowed because This was Heavy and, I wasn't sure was I ready yet? "You Devote to serve this family. You vow your trust, loyalty and blood to this family. This Family that protects you, name you and define you." His eyes pierce into mine. There was gravity in those words. I didn't Blink away, it was my turn to show I am worthy of being a part of this Family.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEvJy6TdtI
Derrick shoulders dropped, he shaking his head sighed, he raised his head again and look deadly at me again. I understood his concerns.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pde1B7oNS
"I, until am alive, pledge my life only to You my Lord." I declare bowing my head.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMrnf7RAcJ
Their stares completely changed to disbelief. I for a second thought I did something wrong.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt8TE1RB4R
But I was serious.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEebewkjQRg
So I started for the table, their shoulders tensed, I know believing me so quickly is out of question.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5Iz3AIwaM
I will build that trust.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQGTu3tu1a
I grabbed a knife from the penstand and ran it digging on my plam, I bled and... that blood... I offered in his name.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG96NCE8n61
I knew the whole process, I saw it a number of times and I knew this was not the place. But for the time being, to show my feelings, I had to.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGqeYOxofh
Our eyes met and Vettorio acknowledged me but it wasn't all acknowledgment, there was something else too.
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VM2v4SPGj
No, not betrayal,
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkEsNFSdL8
not guilt,
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUQbfjXeJa
no mischief,
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb25fkCFXlS
neither regret,
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KvZACnjgM
It was something else..
482Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYejwxAEQa
I can't decipher.
