I can’t help but keep smiling like an idiot. I may have experienced one of the worst moments in my life the night b
I can’t look at the agent walking beside me as I feel so ashamed that I couldn’t defend myself the night before. Because of me, he had to shoot a man and assume the consequences.“Do you see why I didn
We come back at night after a long day of walking and stopping by libraries. William parks his car in the private area and asks me to wait. I see him walking around the car to open the door for me.
I hurry to put back the files in the boxes and sit on a chair, taking breaths. The door opens and I smile at him nervously, “I was waiting for you.” I lie.“Waiting for me?”
“What do you mean he didn't come back? I'm sure he's just in his room, he always closes the door and—”“He's not there!” William runs his fingers in his hair. “The door was open, he's not there.”I panic. I press my lips tight and look around me. “Have you ch
He starts the car and we drive in the middle of the mansions until we spot the one Vicky showed us in the pictures. He parks a little far and leaves the car. I follow him behind the vehicle and see him open the trunk. I wasn't surprised to see a metal suitcase filled with guns. “Take this.” I take the weapon with shaky hands. I may have taken some shooting classes, but it’s my first time using the weapon outside the agency.“Don't aim for the heart or the head. He might be dangerous, but we can't risk killing someone else,” says the boss. “Aim for
I drive them back to the agency and help William stand up.“Take care of Lisa, please,” I ask Tiger.
My chest tightens and my breathing slows for a few seconds. The three words he pronounced so suddenly replayed in my mind several times, making me feel dizzy.I don't dare to look at him.Tiger's hands are shaking along with his legs, and I’d be lying if I say that I don’t feel bad for him. I wait a few moments until I recollect myself and take a long breath before I look at him. His skin is paler than usual and he has dark circles under
It’s seven in the morning when I leave the terrace, it’s already too late to get a little sleep. Maybe a cold shower and a cup of coffee can help.At the cafeteria, I see Vicky and Kyle eating their breakfast together, and I decide not to disturb their couple moment, so I choose a table not too far from theirs. As I’m drinking my warm coffee, I see Tiger arrive. His eyes are swollen and red. He must have spent the night crying.I
Later in the night, I shower and put on a nice silk robe, without forgetting to put on some perfume and cream. I want to impress my husband on our wedding night.It isn’t going to be our first time making love, but it feels like it and it makes me think again, sex isn't just about losing your virginity forever, and not getting special moments again. No, it's not like this atall.
"You can kiss."William's speech was short, but the words were too strong to make me and the entire crowd look at him in awe. He spoke in front of people he's not close to, in front of strangers, and he did it all for me.Tiger, who couldn't even pronounce a word just showed everyone how much he loves me. But our speeches can't compare to the way our lips express our love for each other. A hand arou
I look at myself in the mirror, there were scars, old and new ones, and scratches and bruises from the latest mission. My face is covered with blues, but it doesn’t matter because of the large smile illuminating it.I’m in Barcelona, the city where we fell in love, and we’re getting married in a few hours.My best friend, Vi
On the day of the party, I see Jayden and Jackson fixing each other’s ties. I’m happy they’re officially dating now.I remember what the boss has told me a few days earlier. He said that he’s thankful to have me in his agency. He brought many agents before, but never someone could change their lives the way I did.
Tiger and I arrive at the airport after a one-hour ride. William, who insisted to drive us, helps us get our luggage from the car trunk. He gives us our fake passports and adjusts my wig.“I hope you’re going to enjoy your trip. You deserve it.” he smiles and puts his arms around our shoulders.
1 month ago...Later in the night, William left his dinner table and headed outside the building. He needed some air, to change his ideas for a moment. He connected the USB in his car and played his favourite playlist before he started the vehicle to head to Pearl City.
1 month ago.Agent Vicky entered the hospital and looked for the elevator. She hid her head under her grey hoodie and followed a group of nurses who entered the cabin. Once inside, she lowered her head to not show her face to the camera.
William drives fast to leave the zone as soon as he can. He also seems to know where he’s going. They must have spent long days and nights studying about how to get me out of my cell. They must have dedicated a lot of their time and energy for me.I remain silent while he drives us far from the building. I can’t formulate a word because of the shock. I was supposed to be heading to another building outside the prison where my execution was planned. I was about to be watched by the government employees. But no, he saved me at the right ti
1 month later.My prison mates aren’t bad people at all. I’ve got to speak to them during the last four weeks and I realized our government is truly ruining the citizens’ lives. Most of them have killed people who truly deserved it.A woman in her forties killed her fifteen-year old’s daughter’s rapist, and s
