"Eliminate who?" she asked as she walked in.
When she got to his house she went inside but was surprised that she didn't see any of his house keepers, she went upstairs to his room and found that his room door wasn't closed properly, she held the door knob to open the door but stopped when she heard a voice inside his room
"it's three days now" she heard a man say
"I know" she heard Mars reply
"And you haven't done your job, you haven't eliminate him" she heard the man say again
"Eliminate who?" she asked as she opened the door and took a step in
"Elena...you...why...you are here?" Mars asked as he stood up from his bed
"Who is she?" The man asked as he turned to face Elena
"She is Elliot's daughter" Mars replied
"What?!! She knows where you stay?" The man asked again
"It's part of the plan K" he replied to K
K turned to look at him then faced Elena again "well she heard what we said and now knows you are to eliminate someone so she has to die" he said as he brought out a gun from his back and pointed it to her forehead
"K don't you dare" Mars said in a warning tone but he didn't put down the gun.
Elena stood frozen staring at the gun pointed at her forehead, she was scared to death and she could feel the adrenaline rush as her heart was beating really fast she had the idea of running but then she thought what use will that be, he had a gun, she wouldn't even be able to take one step before he shoots and even if she wanted to run she couldn't bring her self to move and she could tell he was not listening to Mars, she could she he was going to shoot as he held the gun tightly and was about to pull the trigger but just then she saw a knife slit through K's throat, blood pumped out of his throat as he slumped to the floor, alittle of his blood spilled on her green shirt and black shoes, she stared at K's body wide eyed then at Mars blood stained hands holding the knife the she looked up at his face, he looked different from other days, he is serious most of the time but when they got to know each other she saw he had a playful side, she could see that he was kind and compassionate but now, what she saw was a different side of him, a deadly side to him, he killed someone with a calm look on his face but she could tell he wasn't calm within him and she couldn't help thinking that now he looked like a true God of war.160Please respect copyright.PENANAq4RJCyq6Pk

Staring at the blood and perceiving it was making her stomach shun she was finding it hard to breath and her leg could barely carry her weight, her sight became blurred and she fell to the floor unconscious, Mars rushed her immediately and placed her on the bed.
Elena woke up few hours later to see someone stroking her head, she couldn't see the person as she had blurred vision, she blinked a few times before she saw Mars sitting beside her stroking her head, she sat up immediately looking at him scared, with fear evident in her eyes she shifted away from him, he tried to hold her but she raised her hand stopping him
"Do...don't to...uch me" she said in a shaky voice
"Elena trust me, I won't hurt you" he said trying to calm her down
"Yo...you...you killed him, you killed that man" she said pointing at the place K's body was only to see he wasn't there "where is he?" Elena asked alittle shocked not to see the body
"I have taken care of it" Mars replied
"Ho...h...how?" She asked wondering what he did with the body
"You don't need to know that" he said in a calm tone
She stared at him for a while trying to assimilate and understand what was happening, she was thinking about his conversation with K, who they want to eliminate that he wanted to kill her because she heard them and why Mars killed K if he was his friend, lots of questions were going through her mind
"I know you have lots of questions and you are confused" he said as he could see she had many questions on her mind "listen to me, I will explain everything, trust me" he said in a calm tone
"I can ask you anything?" She asked and he nodded yes "including about your work?" She asked to confirm that he would answer all her question
"Yes, but first sit properly" he replied then got up from the bed and went to the table in the room and poured a glass of water then brought it for her, she took the glass of water from him then drank the entire water and gave the glass back to him, he kept the glass on the table then sat on the bed "I know you are wondering about my work and why he wanted to kill you and who we want to eliminate, right?" He asked, she nodded "I will tell you everything so listen and don't interrupt me" he took in a deep breath then started160Please respect copyright.PENANAAhMR19rlGU

"I work for an organization called 'the shadows', we get paid to assassinate people..." he paused and watched her expression for a while he could see she was confused but he continued "I have been working for them for eight years now since I turned eighteen, I was trained to be good at what I do and when we got a contract they thought I would be the best person for the job so I was assigned the contract, that's why I came to Puerto Rico" he stopped to make sure she understood
Elena stared at him for a while trying to understand all what he said, lots of thoughts kept running through her mind 'he works for an organization as an assassin since he was eighteen, contract and why Puerto Rico' she could barely understand "since you were eighteen, what about your mom?" she asked referring to his mother Alicia
"She doesn't know" he replied simply
"Why did you join them?" She asked wondering what could have made him want to join them
"When I was a kid mom told me stories about my birth parents, she never told me how they died but she told me they died after I was born, she said Charlie made her promise that she would make sure I learnt to fight, that I can protect myself and she made sure of it...." he paused for a while then continued "I helped a man who was getting robbed, I beat up the four robbers and the man gave me his card and said if I ever needed a job I should contact him....my mom was sick but as time passed it became worst and her treatment was very expensive so I contacted the man, I went to see him and he gave me the job, I was already a skilled fighter so I didn't need much training, he told me I had the chance to back out but I was desperate, mum needed the money so I took the job and few days later I had my first assignment and I got paid, I went to the hospital to pay for her treatment only to find out someone has already paid for it..." he stopped again because he saw she had questions
"Who paid for her treatment?" she asked curiously
"I don't know they said it was an anonymous person" Mars answered, he waited for her to ask another question but she didn't so he continued "at this point I was already in the job so I couldn't back down and I also hoped I could find information about my birth parents since the job came with lots of connection but I didn't find anything so I just continued working, I became one of the best and highest paid assassin and when we got the contract they contacted me and I came here" he stopped once again
"You wanted information about your birth parents? Didn't your mom tell you about them?" she asked a little confused
"She told me stories about them most especially my mom, she knew my mom since they were kids but she moved away soon after so she didn't know much about my dad, she told me stories about my mum's beauty and selflessness, her compassion and love for helping people but never anything that could help me find them, she only told me my mum's name 'Charlie' " he answered
"And your dad?" She asked
"She didn't tell me his name, she said my parents said not to tell me anything about them but still she did so she refused to tell me their names" he replied
"But why?" Elena asked
"Mom said they don't want me digging into my past" he answered her question again
"And your relatives and family?" She asked as she didn't understand why his parents gave him to a stranger
"She said they all died" he answered sadly
"What!! what killed them?" She asked feeling sad for him
"I don't know" he answered simple
Elena didn't want to ask him about his parents because she could see he was sad anytime he talked about them, so she asked him another question that has been on her mind "why did you come to Puerto Rico?, who are you here to assassinate?"
He looked at her for a while before speaking "when we bumped into each other at the airport it wasn't by mistake, I bumped into you on purpose, and even at the hotel in Panama I followed you there...." He paused for a few seconds then continued "the day I hit your car it also wasn't an accident, all the times we met it wasn't just a mere coincidence, they were all part of my plans" he stopped and stared at her
"You mean you have been stalking me?" She asked and he nodded "but why?" She asked confused
"When I got the contract I knew the person am to assassinate is not an easy target so I had to get close to him and you were my only option, I have been following you for the past three months and when you travelled and were returning I knew that was my chance so I started my plans" he explained
"What plan?" She asked curiously
"To get close to you" he replied truthfully
"To get close to me...so you mean all the time me spent together was part of your plan, all our dates and all the times we made love? You don't feel anything for me?" She asked in a sad and angry tone
"Of course I do, listen Elena at first it was all a plan, a pretence but that changed, I didn't even realize when I started developing feelings for you... your childishness, playfulness, attitude and cheerfulness, everything about you made me fall in love with you without even realizing..." he paused and looked at her "look at me Elena" he said as she was looking down "trust me, I love you a lot and even if you don't trust my words then trust your heart, you know deep that I love you...look into my eyes and you will see" he said staring directly into her eyes
As she stared into his eyes, she could see the truth, he does love her but all the secrets, lies and deceit, could she really forgive that, she has been told many time that if you love someone you have to accept all their flaws but could she really accept all this "I can see you love me but it doesn't change the fact that you used me at first" she said calmly still staring into his eyes
"I Know and I'm so sorry trust me" he said holding both her hand in his
"I trust you" she said staring into his eyes but just then a question popped in her mind "who do you want to eliminate that you have to get close to me?" She finally asked the most important question
Mars kept staring at her with a conflicted mind, he didn't know what to do, he was scared of telling her the person because he didn't know how she would react, he hoped deep down she would forgive him "Elena trust me I couldn't go through with it any longer" he said holding her hand tightly in his
She stared into his eyes anticipating his answer, she didn't know why but for some reason she was dreading his answer but she knew deep down she wanted no, she needed to know. She nodded her head signalling him to talk
He stared at her hesitating alittle still thinking on whether or not he should tell her, he took a deep breath and stared her right in the eye "Mr Elliot Mark, your father" he finally said
She stared at him speechless, she became still and he was starting to get scared, he could feel him heart racing as she stared at him silently.160Please respect copyright.PENANAwpEOXloEZn
