Evander stared unblinkingly at Elena, who stood at the doorway in a flimsy nightgown. And, whether it was bad luck or a blessing, the wind blew, making the contours of her body even more defined in his eyes.

It stirred his male instincts.

But Evander was still sane enough to blink and avert his gaze. And to steady his breathing.

"Miss, please go back inside, the night air isn't good for your health!" he pleaded.

"Not good for my health, or not good for your heart?"

Evander froze at Elena's word

    Evander stared unblinkingly at Elena, who stood at the doorway in a flimsy nightgown. And, whether it was bad luck or a blessing, the wind blew, making the contours of her body even more defined in his eyes.It stirred his male instincts.But Evander was still sane enough to blink and avert his gaze. And to steady his breathing."Miss, please go back inside, the night air isn't good for your health!" he pleaded."Not good for my health, or not good for your heart?"Evander froze at Elena's words. Daring to look, he turned his head towards the girl. His eyebrows shot up when he saw Elena tilting her head back, drinking directly from a bottle.Evander instantly strode towards Elena and snatched the bottle from her hand."Give it back! Don't throw it away!" Elena shrieked, her voice rising, as she watched Evander pour the contents of the bottle into a potted plant, then move the empty bottle to a corner of the balcony."What are you doing?!" Elena screamed furiously, as if she had just l

  • The Agent's Blood: The Bodyguard's Legacy   Chapter 6

    It only took a week to plan the engagement. The main event was held right after both families agreed, so quick. Time flowed like water, imperceptibly.The spectacular engagement in the Montgomery family attracted everyone’s attention. It appeared in news portals, becoming the main story of the union of two honorable families predicted to form a new power in the business world.Meanwhile, at the party, thousands of people looked happy. Only Evander stared at the stage with a cold expression.“Congratulations to you, Miss Elena,” he whispered hoarsely. His baritone voice was inaudible to anyone.How pathetic.Evander shouldn’t have been the one offering congratulations on her happy day, but rather the man standing beside her, exchanging engagement rings.What a cruel fate.His beloved, whom he could no longer hope for, had become someone else’s, not his.As he tried to calm his emotions, his gaze inadvertently met Elena's. This instantly locked him, unable to look away.Evander could ba

    Evander carefully laid Elena’s small body onto the bed, gently tucking her in so as not to wake the woman who had cried herself to sleep.“I’m still wondering, what is my real job here? Being a bodyguard or a babysitter,” he whispered, a hint of exasperation in his voice.Before leaving, Evander gazed at Elena's face one last time, staring for a long moment. “Beautiful,” he praised, almost inaudibly.This was the young lady from the Montgomery Family, Elena Montgomery, the one who always filled him with regret, the one he always wanted to apologize to whenever he was near her.“I promise you, when you wake up, all this sadness will be gone. I won’t let you suffer, Miss.”“This will be the last time you cry.”Even if it meant Evander had to bear everything himself, for Elena and her happiness, he would do it.Unwilling to linger and cause misunderstandings when she awoke, the man in the black uniform decided to leave, allowing Elena to rest comfortably.***His feet carried him to his

    It took Evander a fraction of a second to process the sentence. He finally managed a hoarse, "O-of course," his voice breaking."May I?" Elena asked, making sure, stepping forward and pushing him back.Evander nodded.He was so utterly endearing, a stark contrast to the intimidating aura of the team captain he'd displayed moments earlier.Meeting the beautiful eyes of the woman before him made him flustered, and he quickly looked away.The man lacked the courage to meet Elena's gaze, his heart beating twice as fast as before. "It's you who likes me, not the other way around.""Jerk!" Elena slapped his broad chest, pushing him away. "Why do annoying people like you even exist?""Annoying, am I? But you like it!" Evander defended himself, secretly smiling faintly, pleased that he'd managed to tease Elena and make her sweet face flush instantly.They fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts, allowing themselves to be consumed by the warmth of the stunning afternoon, far from the worl

    The man's eyes went wide when he heard the news that Elena had left her room without anyone knowing. "The VIP escaped?!" he shrieked. What now? Why was this woman suddenly disturbing Evander's peace again and again? Couldn't she just leave him alone for once? "Her last known location, didn't Miss Elena go inside?" Evander rasped. "The CCTV even shows the VIP entering her room!" "That's right, bu-but when I brought this food and went in, Miss Elena was already gone," one of the trembling servants explained nervously. "I-I don't know where she went!" "The window in her room is open, Captain," Evander's subordinate said, detailing how Elena escaped. "There's a rope hanging all the way down," he added, presenting the evidence to Evander. "Which she used to escape from here," Evander mumbled. "Where exactly did Miss Elena go?" he whispered, tensely rubbing his chin. Without hesitation, the team captain immediately left, following his instinct, guessing the VIP's whereabouts by focu

    "May I know what kind of woman is your ideal, Captain?"Evander almost choked on his ice cream when the question was thrown at him so suddenly.Out of nowhere, it was uttered by the very person who secretly held his heart.For a long moment, the man gazed at the woman he adored, saying nothing. His lips were sealed, wanting to speak the truth but knowing his limits.His honesty, he knew, might cause trouble later."Ma'am," Evander finally replied after a lengthy silence.Elena's eyes widened. "M-me?""There's an ice cream stain. Would you like me to clean it, or will you do it yourself?" Evander added, annoyingly innocent.He stared intently at the corner of Elena's s lips, ripe and beautiful.For a moment, Elena thought his response was indeed an answer to her question, a description of Evander's ideal woman.Apparently not."I can clean it myself!" she snapped, sounding exasperated, stomping her foot. "Why are you suddenly talking about ice cream when I'm asking something serious? C
