Vin. After leaving her place earlier, I went straight to work because Dre had brought me clothes to change. I haven't been able to concentrate so far. I had to cancel all my meetings because my mind was stuck with Eva. Dre offered to talk to her and I let him go. It wasn't until I heard her crying that I realized Eva wasn't being stubborn, she is hurting. I tried to investigate her life after the orphanage but nothing came up. It's like she doesn't even exist. That's why I told Dre to bring her to me for a serious talk but apparently, she can't be seen with me. Something is wrong with Eva or somewhere. My assumption is true because the whole ride to her house, Eva remains quiet and just stares out of the window. I watch the girl hastily get out of the car immediately I pull over, and head straight to the house without a word. Left with no choice, I do the same. Taking a seat in her living room, I patiently wait for her when she goes to her room, assuming she went to change. Eva
Eva.I expectantly stare at Vin after uttering the dreaded name and he seems a bit shocked. Does he know him? Of course, he does. They both are in the dirty business, just different states. "Do you know him?" I whisper, staring into his grey bewitching eyes. This man is a dream come true. I still can't believe I am eventually in his arms after yearning for him for so long."Yes, and you don't have to worry about anything, I won't let anything happen to you" Vin mumbles tucking away my hair and I shake my head in worry."What if he hurts you? I will happily sacrifice my freedom rather than let anything happen to you, Vin. I can't get you in my shit" I vigorously shake my head dreading what Ivan will do to him if he found out. I have seen the man kill people. Being his favorite, he used to take me to his missions Every time Ivan was torturing someone I had to be present.He wanted to shape me into his perfect weapon. Sometimes I did wonder what he saw in me because I was the most frail
Eva."Baby, are you okay?" Vin turns around to face me and I will myself not to stare at his bare body. Does he always walk around the house without a shirt?"Yes," I mumble approaching him."Thank you for yesterday, Vin. I haven't slept that much for a long time" I whisper, staring at the stack of pancakes he just prepared. There are also two glasses of freshly squeezed orange juice on the side."Me too, sweetheart" Vin kisses my head and I feel my face burning with a blush. "I finally found the missing piece of me" he whispers more to himself and I pretend I didn't hear him."You cook?" I quickly change the topic and he turns back to the stove with a smile. He looks cute."Yes. I promised a certain someone I would provide for every meal she wanted. Wouldn't it be impossible if I didn't know how to cook the meals?" Vin smirks and I smile sitting on one of the stools. I learned how to cook too. I love making my meals because it makes me feel less paranoid."How do you manage your compa
Eva.''So how are you liking your new ride?" His voice is muffled by the background loud music. He must be at the club already. Vin insisted on buying me a car but I refused. I owed myself my first car."It's pretty cool" I smile pulling over in front of my apartment. I had one class today so I took that chance to go car shopping. A least now Vin won't be driving me around anymore. Grabbing my bag, I get out of the car but a certain movement catches my attention. My bedroom curtain slightly moves as well as the living room's.That kind of motion is not a coincidence at all. I knew it was just a matter of time before he found me. Since the day I quit working for him, Ivan has been sending me countless messages, urging me to go back home before he comes for me. ''Don't hang up, Ethan. I think something is not right" I whisper into the phone before placing it in my bag. If someone is in there like I am assuming, I can't let them know I know. I need to act oblivious and pray Ethan will d
Vin. I have been in this meeting for one and a half hours but my mind is not present. For unknown reasons, I feel antsy. My heart keeps worrying until I remember everything is okay. Eva is fine. I called her in the morning hours and she said she was going out. I am spending this weekend with her. As much as my schedule is tight, I need to make time for Eva too. I neglected that girl for too long and I need to make it up to her. Things would have been easier if we lived together but I know she won't accept it. At least for now.''Let's have a five minutes break" I demand, standing up and adjusting my Suit jacket. It's fruitless being here when my mind is somewhere else. When I exit the door, I run into a grinning Dre holding my phone in his hand. I ignore his stupid face, and I am about to walk past him when he talks. "Love" He quotes the name with a chuckle "Has been blowing your phone with endless calls" I frown taking my phone from his hand and my heart trembles when I see the
Eva. My eyes remain on the man carrying me and my heart swell with immense bliss. His facial hairs are perfectly trimmed making him appear more mature than before. The tattoos though, appear kind of cringe but they also make him more hot. My only wonder is why he had to do it on his whole body. Unless he was trying to tell a story with them, I haven't seen him naked anyway, I won't judge yet. I only appreciate his care for me. This is now the Vin I know. He always took care of me and saw me as his responsibility from the beginning. I would completely have no one if he wasn't here. Or maybe get a jerk who doesn't care for my feelings as a boyfriend. Vin is reviving the emotions I'm trying to push away and I know it won't be fair if I hurt his feelings. He is not perfect but I know deep down Vin cares for me."Vin" I whisper his name and he instantly stops walking. When his eyes find mine, my cheeks redden and I inwardly curse myself. I didn't know I could blush this much. "Tell m
Vin. Apart from rice and fried chicken in her fridge, there is no other foodstuff in the house. It's good that she will be moving in with me, so I won't have to worry about her feeding habits. "Inform Maria to prepare various meals and tidy up my room," I tell Dre as I take out the leftover food to preheat. "Good plan boss, I was going to tell you the same thing. She will only be safe at your house" "Yes. Also, help me hire three professional bodyguards. I can't take another risk with her, Dre" I whisper glancing into the living area where she is chatting with her friends. I want to give her all the world has to offer, and there is no way I will let her continue with her assassin job when I am here. Everything I have belongs to her as well."Right away boss. I will head back to the office and stop by when the meeting is over" I silently nod at Dre and continue serving the warm food. After filling a glass of water, I carry the tray of food to the dining table and carry Eva over.
Eva. Vin seems distracted. I am not good at reading people but I can tell the message he just read changed his mood. He squeezes the phone in his palm a bit harder and finally turns to me. I can easily tell the smile on his face is forced but I return it anyway. "Everything Okay? " I ask when he crouches in front of me. "Yes. Everything is fine. Come on, let's check out our room'' Vin lifts me from the chair and takes the stairs to the said room. As he claimed, the form is magnificent. It's painted white and has large windows with beige curtains. In the middle of the room is the biggest bed I have ever seen. The bedspreads and the countless pillows are also in white. It's perfect. It exceeds my imagination.I gently smile at Vin and he returns it. " I love it" I happily exclaim and he chuckles, pecking my cheek. "I knew you would... we... " Vin's statement is cut short by his ringing phone and I sigh in disappointment. Can't I have him to myself? Since he excused himself, It
