42VALENTINE "Will she be okay with this?” Marcelo asked by the time I was done sharing my plans with him."I don't care…" I drove my hands into my pocket.The wind swung by waving the flowers about. Marcelo stepped up close to me.“Everyone can see how you feel about her…" "What are you saying?”"Do you pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about? You love her, boss.”"Love?” The words felt like a bitter pill on my tongue, I chuckled softly. Why do I feel this way after saying this? My guts twisted. "How do you feel right now?” "You want to protect her. You want to keep her safe … I see that is the reason why you are marrying her,” He blurted out the words reeling in my mind."Yes. I don't love her… love isn't my thing," I responded, a huge lump lodged in my throat. Marcelo's lips cracked in a smirk and he turned around.“Make sure she doesn't find out," I instructed him. He bowed and left. I'm doing this just to protect her, nothing more or less. I can't afford

41CLEOPATRA I fell back on the bed panting heavily for breath. The ward had a raw smell of sex and sweat. Valentine sat on the couch opposite watching intently as I tried to gather myself. I had a fluttery feeling deep down my stomach. I felt a throb between my legs. I guess my sex drive was terribly high today because I wanted more. I stepped down from the bed. Valentine studied quietly with a stoic expression. I went down on my knees before him, held his gaze and slowly undid his belt.“Let me give you a reward, my big bad boy." His lips cracked slightly apart. He eases himself into the chair, I took out his belt and freed the mighty monster who had been waiting all this while. It had stretched to full length and was rock hard. I gave it a pat. It twitched under my touch. The cap glistened. My throat bobbed. I ran the tip of my tongue over the cap, Valentine drove his hands into my hair and squirmed, “Do it daredevil." I gave a triumphant smile and gently took time to e

VALENTINE “Boss, you need to see this," Marcelo stormed in with a stern expression written over his face.“I'll be right back," I gave Cleopatra a gentle pat on her hands and walked away with Marcelo. We walked together into the car.“This is the last footage from the accident scene," He passed a tablet with a video playing. A black Mercedes Benz car rode speedily heading to Cleopatra. Cleopatra froze at a spot when the headlights intentionally flashed into her eyes. Like a flash, the car knocked her out of the road. But one thing rang a bell; the car. It was one of the cars Rossetti bought recently. Bile rose high in my throat. My hands curled to a fist. He was behind this. My lower jaw clenched tightly, " Take me to the house.” Marcelo nodded and started the ignition. He propelled the car towards the mob house. I sprang out of the car the moment he drove in. Charged by fury, I marched to his study. I barged in.“Valentine…" He called me with a lopsided grin.“Leave us!!!"

VALENTINE Marcelo had a smug look on his face. His eyes glinted, almost like he was teasing me. I looked away and began to leave for the doctor's office.“I was able to watch the CCTV footage…" My feet hung midair. I turned sharply."The CCTV footage of the area where Cleopatra's accident occured. Everything was erased. We could find nothing.” My hope deflated. My chest dropped. I folded my hands into a tight fist."You didn't do your work properly,” I said with gritted teeth. Marcelo's head fell low and he mumbled, “I'm sorry,Sir." I raked my hair roughly with my fingers and pummeled my fist on the wall burning with anger.“Get the doctor," I ordered him and turned in the direction that led to the car park. Marcelo took the other direction to the doctor's office. I got into the car and took my seat at the passenger side. I exhaled sharply. Being with me was truly exposing Cleopatra to lots of trouble. I can't let her go. If I do, they will come for her. I have to prote

VALENTINE I felt her pain through our eye contact. Tears trickled down her eyes. It was as though she knew what I had done. Her gaze turned to a frightful one. Slowly, she lowered her head and kept crying. I got into my car and drove out. On my way out, I saw two body bags lying side by side. I guessed it was Andrei and his beloved. Halfway to the mansion, I got a call from Rossetti.“Your work isn't complete, Val." “I did what I wanted." “The job was to wipe out the family. The daughters are still breathing." I cringed. “I don't kill children. Your client should do the rest," I tightened my grip around the steering wheel.“That was part of your job. You have to complete it," Rossetti barked.“Too late. The kids are in safe hands," I said, happiness bloomed in me. I was glad that at least the children were in safe hands.I arrived at the mansion and ended the call. I marched to Rossetti's study. A deep frown was engraved in his face.“Who was it?" “You didn't do a clean job

VALENTINE The temperature in the room was terribly hot. I felt suffocated in my outfit. I scanned the area, my target was nowhere to be found. I picked a flute of drink from the waitress. She threw me a cocky smile and winked at me.The walls vibrated at the loud sound of the classic blaring from the speaker. While I walked gingerly, scrutinizing the place. I felt a bump behind me. A small squeal followed and then a thud. I turned around. It was my target's little girl. She rubbed her forehead with a cute pout on her face. She looked up to me with a smile, “I'm sorry Sir," She apologized and tried to stand up. I stretched my hands to her. She chuckled and took my hands and rose to her feet.“Gabrielle…" I heard a young girl's voice, she was walking towards us. The little girl, Gabrielle, rolled her eyes.“Urgh, not again," She stomped her feet angrily.“There you are," A girl pushed her forward from the crowd. She caught her arm and giggled, “I caught you." She didn't

I missed him. His scent. His cold smile. His dangerous touch. I know I look really stupid for missing him so much. He had seen me as nothing but a pastime. And I had to fall fast for him. I walked around the house carrying with me an image of his face."Care to share?” Aunt's voice broke into my

CLEOPATRA I felt a salty taste on my buds. My eyes were clouded with tears as I looked at the man that had once stood as my protector but now a captor. My chest folded over.“Please, Just let me go. I have to go back to my Aunt," I pleaded with tears streaming down

5VALENTINE “Give me some time to find out if she is a spy," I demanded from Rossetti when we entered his study.“You don't need any more time. What if much damage is done before you get a proof…" “Then, I will kill her." He heaved. He sat on the chair behind his table, “Fine." I bowed sl

4CLEOPATRA I opened my eyes with a loud gasp and sat up. It was a dream. My eyes were wet with tears. I held my neck.“Are you okay?" The voice asked again. I trailed the sound of the voice and I saw that it was Valentine. I nodded. He picked the cup next to my table and filled it up with water
