Love At Stake

Ronnakrit's Pov" I'm back!" I called. Pulling my snickers at the door step, moving in to the sitting room.As soon as I got inside, the bag I held dropped from my hand. My jaw dropped." What happened?" I rushed closer to Pawat, bringing Grandma into my arm. " They came again." Pawat said, his voice barely above a whisper. My eyes travelled over his battered form, and I struggled to fight back my tears. They've beaten him beyond recognition. I jumped to my feet, bringing him in a warm hug. " I'm sorry." Tears rolled down my eyes slowly. "I shouldn't have left you here alone." " They warned us to make payment or else, they would come back for us." Pawat sobbed." Hey, don't cry. They won't touch you again. I promise." " Thank you..." He cried. " Now go take your bath, while I make dinner." Without another word, he shuffled out of the room. I helped Grandma back to the sofa. I wonder why those people are so cruel. Afterwards, I made my way to the kitchen. Putting on my apron, p

Ronnakrit's PovAs soon as I arrived at the gamble house, I sighed in relief. I got off my bike after making sure it's parked in a safe spot.I approached the entrance, looking at the tall building in front of me. The Ban Kan Pan wasn't just a building; it was a fortress. No signs, just a heavy, unmarked door guarded by two mountains of muscle who looked like they chewed nails for breakfast. A cold shiver, the kind that had nothing to do with the night air, traced a path down my spine. Assess. Adapt.I moved forward, my steps silent on the pavement. As I reached for the door, a meaty hand slammed flat against the wood, blocking my path.The guard didn't even look at me. "ID." His voice was a low grumble, like stones grinding together.Shit. My mind raced. I had fake IDs, but not on me for this mission. Bluffing was the only tool left."I'm a guest of the house," I said, layering my voice with a confidence I didn't feel. "My business is my own. Now, are you going to let me in, or do I

Ronnakrit's Pov" No no no no." I crumbled to my knees beside the bed, tears blinding me. On the other side of the door, Pawat's voice was cold and flat." Now you see. If you were around last night all this wouldn't have taken place." " Pawat, I am so sorry, I didn't mean it. I... I..." Words stuck in my throat. I could not reveal the truth that I went to assassinate a mafia. With all the strength I have left, I picked Grandma up in my arms, running out of the room. As soon as I got out of the house, I carefully placed her on my bike, using a cloak to strap her to myself. Almost immediately, I sped out of the compound...In the doctor's office...After the test was done on her, the doctor had asked both I and Pawat to come to her office. She kept staring at her chart, before raising her head to look at me. She heaved a heavy sigh. " I am happy to announce to you that your Grandma is physically stable, we've treated the minor contusion on her temple and her vitals are strong. The

Ronnakrit's Pov" Ahh!" I screamed once again. The excruciating pain quickly ran through my veins. " I said stand down." Det yelled at the guy beside me. He was the one who pulled the trigger. He heaved a deep sigh. "Just be my bodyguard, and I will free you from this torment." He said coldly." Never. That is over my dead body." I barked. " Okay... There's no forcing anymore. You can leave." He slowly stepped back. Our eyes made contact. I stared at him completely, hoping to find a reason to doubt his sincerity right now. I felt a strange pull in my guts. There's something fishy. I didn't think much of it, I just turned around leaving the warehouse. As soon as I got out, I paused. Turning to look around if there was any lurking danger. Afterwards, I continued out of the dense and foggy area...As soon as I got home, I paused right at the gate. My eyes stumbled on a cop's car. 'What are the officers doing here?' I asked myself. My mind because flooded with deep thoughts and inst

Ronnakrit's Pov" Who's that?" Det asked, his eyes fixated on me. " Don't meddle in my affair." I said. He smirked, and we moved on. Several steps into the mansion, we came across a guy dressed in black tuxedo. He bowed curtly, saying. " Mr Det, Mr Anant wants to see you and your new bodyguard." He said." Lead the way." Det said.Immediately, we both followed suit. Each steps quiet on the marble as we moved through the hall way making our way into the elevator...As soon as we got to the roof top, the guy who came to accompany us stood beside Anant, an old man, clearly in his mid 60s. " Dad." Det said. " You came so late today." Anant voice cold and subtle. He speaks quit low, exuding that mafia aura. " There were... Complications to resolve. They're handled." Det said. " How do you like it here?" Anant asked. He was referring to me actually. I didn't answer at first, but, Det slightly tapped my hand. " Ohh... Em..." I didn't know what to say. I could not answer depending on my
