"Kyle, you got the new mission" said one of the workers
"I got it" I said while putting down the mug.
"Ugh, I just finish my mission last night and I already got the new one" I mumbled while tidying my things
"Well, you are the skilliest assassin here"
"Of course, a lot of people want you to work for them" said someone
"It's you, Violet" I said while looking at the long silky black hair lady at the door frame.
"Why, are you expecting someone else" said Violet while wrapping her hand around my neck.
"Well, I expected someone hotter-" I said while looking at her red eyes.
Violet pushed me to the side. I chuckled seeing her reaction. Lol, I really like teasing her.
"Weirdo, You are the only one who expected someone hotter while Violet Hill being in front of you" said Violet while rolling her eyes.
I just chuckled. It's true though, I never fall for Violet looks. While the other male assassin here are drooling for her looks. Maybe, I have a different standards though.
"Here, the document for today mission" Said Violet while passing the document.
"Thanks" I take the document
"It looks like the person you have to kill is a lady" said Violet more
"A princess actually" I said while reading the document.
"Poor princess" said Violet while cleaning her dagger
"Yeah" Im agreeing with her.
It looks like the person i have to killed seems to be an abandoned princess. Princess Cecilia La Savetta, 20 years old and seems to be a sickly princess. My client must be a cruel person- to think that he would the best assassin just to kill a sickly princess-
Nevermind, I should just mind my own business. The client pay the deposit quite a large some of money. Let just finish this mission quickly and have a long vacation.
At night,
I manage to broke into the princess palace. It was so easy- Some of the knights was sleeping and some of them are just mumbling how tired they are without caring anything happened around them.
I stare at the princess cecilia palace, an old building with the abandoned garden. Despite having those, this palace still manage to looks pretty. It somehow looks like a witch palace, which really suit my taste
Those wild roses seems to filled the garden. The untrimmed bushes around the garden and the old fountain still has it shine in the middle of garden.
I snap myself back into the reality. This is not the time to admiring the palace beauty.
I jump to the most biggest tree at the garden to find the princess bedroom. It doesnt take me that long to find the princess bedroom.
I hop into the balcony.
what a careless person, doesnt she care about her live- She opened the balcony door widely as if she is inviting the assassin to kill her
Well, not gonna lie this has made my job easier
I get into the bedroom, my eyes was fixed to the bed.
Suddenly, I was welcome by a voice.
"Excuse me, who are you"
I turned my back and saw a purple hair lady with scarf around her shoulder. Those golden eyes are staring at me.
Crap- Is this the princess- If she is here then who is in the bed-
I took a glance at the bed again and realized that just a doll.
How come I mistook a doll for human- This is such an embarassing mistake.
"Sir-?" Ask the princess
I have two option, I should run away right now since I already been found or I can just kill the princess. Shes alone right now anyway and she doesnt have any weapon with her.
Those golden eyes are staring at me. That is not even a scared eyes. Neither her leg or hands were trembling. She should realized by now that an assassin has just broke into her room.
Suddenly, someone knocked the door.
"Princess, have you asleep?"
Crap, I should run right now before I found by more people.
I jump to the balcony
"wait-" Said the princess trying to chase after me.
I dont have time for this, I will come again tommorow.
I hop down from the balcony and leave the palace building.

the next day,
I was awake by the sudden light from the window.
"Close the fckin curtain-" I said while wrapping myself with blanket
"Get up, It's already 7.30 a.m"
"For how long do you plan to sleep-" Said Violet by pulling myblanket
"Forever, idk" I said without thinking
"Dont be like a child, Kyle- get your ass up-" Said Violet more
"Ugh-" I finally give up. Violet never failed to awake me up-
I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face.
half and hour later, after Im done bathing and such. I saw Violet tidying my bed.
"You can be a great wife though" Im impressed by her cleaning skills.
"I know" said Violet with that little proud giggle.
I sat on the couch with a mug of coffee. Without wearing anything other than a towel wrapping around my waist, just like my normal morning
Violet sat next to me.
"Have you finish your mission last night" asked violet
I shake my head
"I almost got found by the maids" I replied
"Lol, how come- " Asked violet more
"It seems like I come way too early, everyone was not asleep yet" I replied
"I thought you would finish your mission quickly since the person you have to kill is a fragile princess" said Violet
fragile princess.. indeed she looks fragile, it as if one touch and she could break in any seconds.
For some reason, I remembered those golden eyes. I keep thinking about those eyes last night. Dreamy and Stunning. Somehow I think I was drown with those eyes and For some reason I want to keep those gaze to myself forever.
I got snapped back into a reality when Violet suddenly touch my thighs.
"What a nice wheather" said Violet
"I agree" i said that and take a sip of my coffee
I could feel Violet staring at me. Those desperate eyes as if she wanted to say something. I just smile and wait till she say what she wanted to.
"Kyle, do you really dont know or just pretend to not know" asked Violet with a serious tone
Finally, she asked that question.
Its not that I dont know her feeling towards me. I already knew about it since the first time her gaze towards me change.
Violet got into the assassin squad a year after me which made her my junior. She was a young lady back then. A angelic face with sweet personality.
look at her now
Foxy eyes with sexy body. It's only a few years passed, Violet is totally a different person now. Maybe, Im getting too old for this.
"Kyle!" Violet voice snapped me back.
I look at her. Those expression that show how desperate is she to know my answer
I pushed Violet hands gently from my thigh.
"Im too old for this love thing Violet"
"also, you already like a sister to me" I said
If I didnt draw the line, I might hurt Violet more. it's better to be hurt right now rather than keep hoping for a 28 year old man to like you back
Violet suddenly sit on my laps.
"Look at me carefully Kyle"
"Do I really looks like a sister to you" said Violet while wrapping her arms around my neck
I stare at her eyes. Just how many years has passed, This sweet lady who used to be shy whenever we made an eye contact right now is boldly throw herself to me.
