"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.

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,
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ma9mZb7qG
I stopped. I isolated myself. Like others.
Work and me.. that was it.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCjRLlHQAj
"There ain't any story, mister." I say.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiPg2xNjUk
I hardly gave any expressions.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSHAF3eKfw
"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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUB83vdBOa
I showed my anger.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH88i53xTzh
Weakness.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcpNasoneg
I need to recover soon. I can't go on like this. I take a deep breath.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCvkvZRzGa
"Hmm." folding hands over the table he leans back, his chest muscles define more as he stretches, I looked away.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuIhI1IXaU
"You have a copy?" It's the root, so that's what he asked. I knew it was coming.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcy6X1cIWy
"No." I say. I was simply made aware of my boundations. I was never given a proof.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWVgvZXhcp
"I was exposed to the truth of my situation when I tried running away the first time." I reason.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSfEG5VAMi
I strictly focused on his death stare. Because if I go down, it's a rough valley of thick tanned muscles.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV9JpPD9UW
I shouldn't be salivating when I've seen many before him who were nearly stripped to nakedness. But..
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0OCMEYVgi
This man is different, something about him makes me thirsty.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbANwugEhKw
I just want to touch him. I blink, blink and Blink again.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3RuKQ9QLK
"That's the barrier." He says more to himself.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lLf5OykWI
"All right! Until we figure out something for you. Carry on doing as you were told." He says dismissively, I stand. Leave. Head down.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyCJfYb7Ox
"Derrick! Come out!" He barked and I stiffened. I didn't suspected someone else was listening to us too.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbxppowCUd
Was he evesdropping ?or he was a part of this and I didn't knew.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU8NbLPso8
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjmiNwV6ju
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!
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfJI60IkA8
This is my story!
My part of life!
My emotions!
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeRW2Dkqxj
It doesn't matter they already know. But what I tell in person, I need to know that person or a number of persons.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLicBq7oiID
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I4uDYqRoh
"I heard him just as we were finished." Vettorio reasoned and I searched his face for the truth.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi1yRnPTCz
He isn't lying.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUtBBBMbKk
"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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1V6Fdzu2i
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PqP7HtLwd
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbaL8QCK1H
This man can say something so important to an outsider like me.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkRWmzletv
From what I see, His decision is only based on the truth I gave him.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0znPotFeg
If I had lied with the same seriousness, he'd be helping me the same, but only on the basis that he believes me.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG2ehcjjdP
I met him nights ago and he already put his trust on me.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ054gpTsMIF
I have no rightful words to utter.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSKB7uL0Cr
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc136K5Ci9
"..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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qxTKrAIP4
Derrick shoulders dropped, he shaking his head sighed, he raised his head again and look deadly at me again. I understood his concerns.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRfOEFwOtz
"I, until am alive, pledge my life only to You my Lord." I declare bowing my head.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz4S9dlYIs
Their stares completely changed to disbelief. I for a second thought I did something wrong.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWpMwiXT4o
But I was serious.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMZNMwvSM1
So I started for the table, their shoulders tensed, I know believing me so quickly is out of question.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX50Oh30aS6
I will build that trust.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVfbdS6Xwk
I grabbed a knife from the penstand and ran it digging on my plam, I bled and... that blood... I offered in his name.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF9odd5Ch2
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6VO5WBSJb
Our eyes met and Vettorio acknowledged me but it wasn't all acknowledgment, there was something else too.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk6g1d5Hpe
No, not betrayal,
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJUQXVLCEH
not guilt,
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6QbqsinfV
no mischief,
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tshVQe9cu
neither regret,
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMojEaBJpI
It was something else..
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pAvejAJZI
I can't decipher.
