episode 5

Zard's POV

I couldn't help but smile as I slightly opened my eyes I have never felt at peace like this, it was something new that I didn't want it to end. I can't believe that I don't want to let go of this lady 'my Melly how cute she is' I thought as I woke up and sat up but the next minute I get the shock of my life "Melly! are you in the bathroom?" I asked loudly but no one answered' where is she could have she have robbed me and ran away? Or was she kidnapped? Where is my woman?' I asked myself as I quickly got dressed and lifted my mattress and layers upon layers of guns became visible' if something bad happens I won't forgive myself' I said as I started to load a gun, but before I could finish my eyes landed on a piece of paper and I headed towards it, picked it up and begun to read it.

Letter;

Hey stranger danger sorry I left you asleep and looking cute, but I had to leave. Don't worry I will make it up to you when I come to thank you for saving me, remember I still owe you a shirt, and we can finish off where we left off.

                                       Yours loving Melly ❤️

The letter ended just like that, and I couldn't help but scan the piece of paper again and again as I smiled 'she really said I slept cutely does that mean she found me cute? How lovely my lovely angel. I can't wait to meet her again I need to prepare.' I thought and I started doing a small dance as I imagined Melly was beside me this was How hard I had fallen for a lady in a day. " Hey Rique what's up with you?" Asher my best friend and my partner asked, and I stopped dancing, quickly hiding the small piece of paper in my pants and went back to my normal assassin face. " Asher what did the bosses say? I am now Zard no one should know this other name or else you might get us caught by Dave's men"I said as I put down my gun " Sorry I'm just used to the name but why are your toys out?" he asked pointing at the collection of the guns I had pulled out in a heat of anxiety. I couldn't help but smile lightly as I thought how dumb I had been. "Elvin has gone to get us information. Ayayai! your older brother is really something do you know this nower days he can't sleep without ensuring ur safety?" Asher finished as he sat on the sofa beside the bed and a grin appeared on his already wicked face, it's not that I'm saying Asher is ugly he is quite handsome he can join the men award for his handsome face but that look is what made him look so sinister he looked as if he could burn you alive if you crossed his line whether you were family or not " what happened here? Did u fight with your sheets or did you help someone else fight your bed? Oh wait!" he said as his grin grew larger "is that blood? Did you kill someone?" his grin became even more satisfying "something like that" I said as I rubbed my head trying to push back yesterday's memory aside. Oh, I forgot;

Hi my name is Rique Quen Cheti and as you could have guessed by now I am an assassin hired by mafia bosses all round the world. My story is not long but I hope you can get to love me and not hate me because I am a born killer 😩 oh well not everyone is privileged to get everything but most of us fight for what we have right now. But as I said for now I'm Zard don't ask why just follow the story and you will understand why.

"Hey bro! " Elvin said walking in with bags that contained Chinese food. " seriously spicy food again? Bro, do you want me to lose my bedroom stamina?" Asher said as he got up and took a bag and open it and started to chug it down as both Elvin and Zard laughed " what! I am very hungry I will survive it just this once because of my stomach"

Elvin's POV

I watched as Asher ate and I turned my eyes to Rique who had been quite for quite a while and I swear I could see sparkles in his eyes what was happening to him had he met an angel or something the Rique I know is very cold since he was small and our parents had died this sparkles in his eyes had died he had become so cold that he was able to kill by the age of 10 he didn't even bat an eye lid and from there henceforth he had become a killing demon most people fear him even mafias fear him well except our Bosses they are quite an interesting couple, but now his eyes really sparkled and it was very fascinating he now looked his age 20 years, unlike all the other times he looks like a 35 year old man who only knows the language of torture and killing. "Hey, bro why do you seem happy?" I asked and watched Asher also throw a glance at Rique and he lightly chuckled " Well he has been like that I even found him dancing" he added and I watch Mr tough( Rique) suddenly blush and turn to face the disoriented bed which looked more like a fighting den than a bed to sleep on "Well it seems he killed someone and he liked it" Asher added as my eyes spotted the blood and Rique quickly removed the sheets from his bed and threw them it the bathroom. I lightly smile as I watched this small child of mine act cute and try to cover his tracks. I didn't want to add anymore fuel to the already burning boy Infront of me so I left the situation at that. " Never mind just come and eat, we still have something to deal with, you can handle it after we leave we won't mess around with you again" I said as I gave Rique his food.

Melly's POV

I had reached home and I was busy being given hugs and kisses for my mother she really looked worried " Mam, I'm sorry for not telling you where I have been bu....." I didn't finish before she stopped me "Don't worry my dear today I won't shout at you, your already an adult and we have decided to give you more freedom by making you a manager in one of our companies" she summarized, as dad nodded to support her words "Really?" I asked and she smiled widely "yes and Mina and Elva can help you, you will need all the help you can get it's going to be a wild ride" mam finished as she gave me an evil smirk and I knew they were up to no good. " so here are all the details and all the requirements needed before the end of the month it's a transportation company" Dad said as Captain Lee gave me a lot of documents and also added a pitiful look on top. And I couldn't help but shiver now I was certain that they were upto no good.
