"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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1CdqBIEUa
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,
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNPSNZtZ72
I stopped. I isolated myself. Like others.
Work and me.. that was it.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxd1GhlhzO
"There ain't any story, mister." I say.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmHJdzXutY
I hardly gave any expressions.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldZRz4jhjl
"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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbDkyOEZO5
I showed my anger.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejCDqrWYWt
Weakness.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p61vWCmyX
I need to recover soon. I can't go on like this. I take a deep breath.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mJZDZ6R4k
"Hmm." folding hands over the table he leans back, his chest muscles define more as he stretches, I looked away.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70b4Q4q4Zk
"You have a copy?" It's the root, so that's what he asked. I knew it was coming.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNnKj9j4vG
"No." I say. I was simply made aware of my boundations. I was never given a proof.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ACAl074CQ
"I was exposed to the truth of my situation when I tried running away the first time." I reason.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTWihZMMpX
I strictly focused on his death stare. Because if I go down, it's a rough valley of thick tanned muscles.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjVTlmC7yC
I shouldn't be salivating when I've seen many before him who were nearly stripped to nakedness. But..
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMgezXR7sc
This man is different, something about him makes me thirsty.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyv1kpllFEP
I just want to touch him. I blink, blink and Blink again.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykO0845Djm
"That's the barrier." He says more to himself.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ0rcbYpn8
"All right! Until we figure out something for you. Carry on doing as you were told." He says dismissively, I stand. Leave. Head down.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGovrfIvAe
"Derrick! Come out!" He barked and I stiffened. I didn't suspected someone else was listening to us too.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4fj9wRium
Was he evesdropping ?or he was a part of this and I didn't knew.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqtzga47ch
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgVl0d7al0
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!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5Ra4GJVEQ
This is my story!
My part of life!
My emotions!
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkkwQX1Hk1
It doesn't matter they already know. But what I tell in person, I need to know that person or a number of persons.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc3fprymQe
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43bItuftOQ
"I heard him just as we were finished." Vettorio reasoned and I searched his face for the truth.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDjzr5kToX
He isn't lying.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnj4YQMhAg
"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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJDr6JtQUo
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71BX1Ca6tC
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsl0bwlpO0
This man can say something so important to an outsider like me.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeYAOe6Bax
From what I see, His decision is only based on the truth I gave him.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKZczR9Gfa
If I had lied with the same seriousness, he'd be helping me the same, but only on the basis that he believes me.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgc2YFZw6Ws
I met him nights ago and he already put his trust on me.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuMB7D8pSt
I have no rightful words to utter.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj0HqNOuQa
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU6d8Sgwln
"..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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQJhzfrht9
Derrick shoulders dropped, he shaking his head sighed, he raised his head again and look deadly at me again. I understood his concerns.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKWgcvtrt6
"I, until am alive, pledge my life only to You my Lord." I declare bowing my head.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6PXBlyLyN
Their stares completely changed to disbelief. I for a second thought I did something wrong.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAhP0A7eLR
But I was serious.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylHsE9J8LP
So I started for the table, their shoulders tensed, I know believing me so quickly is out of question.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBWScaNh2L
I will build that trust.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBAzesCMRg
I grabbed a knife from the penstand and ran it digging on my plam, I bled and... that blood... I offered in his name.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0AdntdRm8
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.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHAZXgLS4e
Our eyes met and Vettorio acknowledged me but it wasn't all acknowledgment, there was something else too.
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXUotrUnzr
No, not betrayal,
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA8wivTVLI
not guilt,
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP6xfog9kK
no mischief,
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghyUHmYVfn
neither regret,
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPrjJT6Jvo
It was something else..
363Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDckiWbQZGk
I can't decipher.
