Broken Halo Chapter 24
She left her apartment in Malakai's car and arrived at the agency in 10 minutes. God she loved this car, she really wanted to keep it but she knew she couldn't. She had to return it at some point, but only when Malakai asked for it. "I'm really tempted to steal your laptop." Eden said when she walked in. All Malakai ever did was work, and she didn't even know what. The actual work his agents did so what did Malakai do except receive missions. "I'd love to see you try." Malakai said, looking up to the blond. Eden came and sat down on Malakai's desk trying to see what the older man was doing. "You don't understand a thing do you?" Malakai asked when he saw the clear confusion on his face. Eden just shook her head. "They're files. Of a hundred different things. Orders I've given, bills, finances. Even agents' files, I have your file somewhere here but I can't seem to find it." Malakai said and when he saw Eden trying to reach for his laptop, he shut it. "I just wanna see my fil

"So he didn't say anything after that?" Astrid asked loudly as she kept shooting. "Nope. Just kissed me and when he was going to say something, some agents came in to report to him and I excused myself." Eden answered as she also kept shooting at her target. Malakai had sent Astrid and Eden on a mission together to kill a bunch of people who were working against their gang. More gang shit basically. And Eden and Astrid were having this conversation mid shootout. Yep, sounds like them. "At least now you know what you said was nothing, is definitely something." Astrid was getting more happy than Eden and it was weird. "You seem more happy than me." Eden said with a smile and looked at the other. Their targets were all dead. "Yeah I don't know why. Gossip maybe." Astrid shrugged and they both decided to get out of there. Eden just rolled her eyes at the response. "But E, be careful. I mean, Malakai is dangerous, everyone knows that." Astrid might've been happy for Eden but she was

"Thank god." Malakai sighed with a smile and Eden was confused. "What do you mean thank god?" Eden's arms went around Malakai's neck and with every second, the two somehow found a way to become even closer. "I really shouldn't tell you. I'm his best friend and he's entrusted me with a piece of information that is to remain classified." Eden rolled her eyes at Malakai's professionalism on this topic of all things. "I can gladly leave." Eden said, but she didn't mean it but still she was starting to get off Malakai's lap until the other pulled her back. "I'll tell you, but you can't disclose it and you can't show that you know. And we'll talk about you rolling your eyes at me again, even though I'm pretty sure I already warned you." Malakai said

Eden was driving home from the agency, still in Malakai's car which she keeps forgetting to give back and the other forgets to ask, when she felt like she was being followed. Eden tried to keep a steady pace but when she noticed the vehicle behind her, she sped up a little. It was difficult to see which car it was since it was night, but she could see it was either dark blue or black. Eden made unnecessary lefts and rights just to check and yeah, she was being followed. She got a little scared, which she promised she wouldn't, but she did. It was a little stupid though since she was a serial killer himself. She decided not to go home just yet and find out who was following her. She wasn't going to lead them straight to where she lived. So she dialled Malakai's number from the car, since she connected his phone long ago, the car was practically hers, and the older one picked up 2 rings later. "Hey little one. What up? You never call this late." Malakai asked, it was nearing 1

Malakai's room had black walls, no surprise, grey and black furniture. The walls had a ombré effect, it's started from black at the top to grey to silver and white near the floor. There was a large double bed that had a cushioned grey headboard, and silk sheets. There were also double glass doors that led out to a balcony. And finally a walk in closet. The whole room screamed Malakai, it was just him. "I can just go home." Eden said but she'll admit, if she drove there was an 80% chance she'd crash. She was so tired. "You're in no state to drive Eden, it's fine. I'll go to the guest room if it makes you more comfortable." Malakai said but Eden stopped him from leaving. "No it's okay, you can sleep in your own room, Malakai." Eden said nervously. Malakai noticed how Eden didn't offer to sleep in the guest room that Malakai pointed out, instead she wanted to stay in here and wanted Malakai to stay in here too. It made Malakai smile, but he had to hide it. "Okay, go to sleep ba

"What were you doing with Alec last night?" Malakai asked and Eden's eyes widened. She must have accidentally said it while in a half asleep state. "I told you he wants to make amends with me." She shyly said stuffing pancakes in her mouth. "And I told you he's only making amends because he wants you back." Malakai said and Eden looked at him with the most adorable face since her mouth was full with pancakes and she had wide doe eyes. "We only went to get a drink or two. He wants to keep being friends. He told me he'd accept it if I moved on." Eden said once she swallowed her breakfast. "Friends hm? Friends? We'll see." Malakai said and mumbled the last part thinking Eden didn't hear him. "Are you seriously jealous of your best friend?" Eden smiles cheekily, the whole thing amusing to her. "I told you, I don't do jealousy." Malakai denied. He went over to the sink to start washing up since Eden was done, when Eden came and hugged him from behind. Her arms went around Malaka

"You don't need to worry Kai, I promise. I moved on from him years ago and if I moved on so easily then, was there even love in the first place. Because if there was I wouldn't have moved on when I did. I don't want you to be scared that I'm gonna leave. I'm staying, believe me." Eden assured and caressed Malakai's black locks with her left hand and caressed his face with her right. It was understandable that Malakai would be worried about losing her, to his ex of all people, it was normal that he was scared. There was a history and Alec was trying to win her back. But rest assured, Eden had closed that chapter in her book. Her chapter with Malakai had started. "What did I do to deserve you? It couldn't have been anything good since I run a criminal underground but maybe in my past life." Eden laughed and Malakai smiled at the music that came from Eden. "Come on, I'm going to take you somewhere today." Malakai said and helped Eden off the island. "Where?" Eden asked as she was

"What's Alec doing here?" Eden asked but Malakai had a pretty good idea. "I have an idea. You." Malakai said sarcastically, it seemed Eden's sarcasm was rubbing off on him. "Don't be an ass. What the hell shall I do?" She asked herself and Malakai thought of something. "Walk from here. Walk. Say you went on a really long walk or something. Or to your cousins because you weren't feeling well." Malakai said and Eden hugged him. "What would I do without you?" She said in a dramatic tone and Malakai playfully rolled his eyes. Eden got off and took off the helmet, Malakai doing the same. He held Eden and kissed her forehead "I'll make him go, get ready and I'll come back out. I promise." Eden said and Malakai nodded, he kissed her one more time before Eden walked off in the direction of her apartment. She walked towards the entrance and when Alec saw her he got out of his car and walked towards her. He smiled at the blond and hugged her, Eden hugged him back bearing in mind that Mal

"That's not what I meant baby. I meant, I never saw Alec because the only one I saw was you. Please don't think what I think you're thinking. I-" Eden cut Malakai off with a kiss. "I was kidding. I know what you mean, don't worry. Alec wanted love, and even though Lilith gave it to him, it wasn't the type of love he needed. I wouldn't ever blame you, no one does so you need to stop blaming yourself. Please." Eden said and put her arms around Malakai. "I can't help it, baby. You know that. I can't help but think that maybe, at some point, if I gave him a chance, he'd still be here. 8 years Eden. 8 fucking years he felt like that. And I'm sorry you had to put up with the depressed me, you were hurting too." Malakai said and tears were already gathering, one had escaped and Eden wiped it away. "You can't blame yourself for any of this. I didn't HAVE to put up with you, I did it because I love you. I chose to be there for all of you, and you've apologised to me for years about this M

"Come on, let's eat. We'll do presents after." Sienna said and rounded up everyone to come to the table. "Come on little princess. If you finish your food, I'll give you ice cream, like I promised." Sienna said to Nicola, her daughter. Eric and Sienna had a baby girl 3 years ago and got married 2 years ago. Yeah, they apparently wanted to do it the other way around. Kids first then marriage. They were a weird couple but everyone loved them so it didn't matter. "Baby, come on." Astrid said to Aiden who just came back from the restroom. Astrid and Aiden had officially started to date a year ago, they went on a mission together once and formed a connection somehow. Then they started going out. The garden was beautifully decorated all thanks to Sienna and Astrid who worked together to prepare this small get together for Eden's birthday. There were fairy lights and lanterns lighting the place up, a barbecue and the table was set up perfectly with all sorts of flowers. It was sm

4 years later "Eden. Your food is getting cold!" Someone shouted to her from outside "Coming." She shouted back as she put on her last earring and looked at herself in the mirror feeling pretty satisfied. "You look stunning as always. My pretty baby." Her husband said from the doorway as he was walking in. He came behind her and hugged her, locking eyes with her in the mirror. "Is everyone here?" Eden asked and Malakai nodded. "Eric is calling for you. The rest are here and everyone is pretty much chilling. Oh, and your food isn't getting cold Eric is trying to lure you out. And I said I would come get you." Malakai told her and Eden rolled her eyes, typical Eric. "Aunty Eddie!" A small voice said and Eden turned around in an instant at the sweet sound. "My baby. How are you Nic?" Eden asked, picking up the 3 year old girl. "Daddy cawing yu." The little girl said in broken words, she had started to speak and Eden found it adorable. "Okay, let's go see what daddy wants." Eden

"What are you doing here?" Eden asked her parents who stood before her with an unreadable expression. "We wanted to see you. Is that so bad?" Eden's father said. "How did you even know where I was?" Eden asked again. It was unusual for her parents to show up here of all places. "I made Eric tell us. Don't be mad at him, we didn't give him much choice." Eden's mother said but her voice was cold. "Why? After all these years? And you even kept track of me according to Eric." Eden said. The 4 were in Malakai's main living room, no one had sat down since Eden started the questions as soon as she saw her mom and dad. Malakai was beside Eden for moral support and Eden was so grateful. "Because we found out about you being a killer. We didn't raise you to be a criminal." Eden's father said, his tone made Eden flinch. "The second you kicked me out, was the second you no longer had a say in my life. You wanted me gone. I was gone. Hell I even came all the way to LA to get away from you.

The shots echoed in his ear even through the protective headgear he wore. His hand was steady but not as it normally would be. He had too much on his mind and it was affecting his skills. What was this feeling in his heart? Whatever it was, it wasn't allowing him to shoot properly and that frustrated him. He was about to put the weapons down until someone stopped him. "You came." The ravenette said when he turned around. "You called." The other said in return. "You're not going to give up that easily are you?" Her voice rang in his ears as she referred to Alec putting his gun down. "The gun doesn't seem to want to do what I want it to. I'm normally a perfect shot." he said. "I know, I've seen you." Lilith came up behind him and raised Alec's hands to the target again. He was so close Alec felt her breath on his neck, his back was against her chest and her arms wrapped around Alec's hands steadying the gun for him. "Come on, concentrate, I know you can still shoot perfectly eve

The blond started to stir awake, her eyes fluttering as she got used to the light and he saw her boyfriend staring down at her. She wouldn't mind waking up like this every day for the rest of her life. She smiled and greeted him."Good morning baby." Malakai beat her to it, his deep morning voice giving Eden chills. "Good morning." She said back and put her arm over the other. "Sleep okay?" Malakai asked and Eden just nodded. "What about your stitches?" Eden asked, becoming worried and looking at Malakai's stomach to see the bandage. It seemed okay. "It's okay baby, I just need to change the bandage, stop worrying." Malakai said finding it endearing how much Eden was looking after him. "I can't help it, I'll be your personal doctor if you want." She said with an innocent face and Malakai smiled and nodded. "I never asked, how has everything been? Y'know, the whole mess with Elijah?" Malakai asked. He tried to put it off, he really did but he couldn't help it. "Work? Seriously?
Broken Halo Chapter 67
It had been another week and Malakai was finally being discharged from the hospital. He'd been stuck in the same room for so long he felt like he couldn't breathe anymore. So finally getting some fresh air was like heaven to him. He signed the discharge papers and Eden was with him so they both went to the car and Eden drove back to Malakai's house. She felt complete with the older beside her, safe and alive. "What are you thinking about?" Malakai asked, breaking the comfortable silence. "Nothing really, just... my parents." Eden said and Malakai was confused. This was very sudden. "Your parents?" Malakai repeated. "My parents. When you were unconscious, Eric called them. Told them a few things. Missed out the part about you in hospital and now they want to see me again. They think that I'm in this mess because they kicked me out. That I'm living this life because of them." Eden explained and Malakai took it in. They want to see her again.“Wait, I remember, you told me this. App

Lilith and Astrid were watching from the widow of the doors and smiled. They had been through a lot together. "They'll be okay." Lilith said and Astrid couldn't agree more. They saw from the windows that the two kept talking with such love in their eyes, so they decided to leave them alone. The 3 left and only 2 remained. Malakai still had yet to ask about the situation of the agency, Elijah and all the rest of it. But it could wait, he wanted to spend time with his girlfriend first. I mean, his life flashed before his eyes, he could've died. He was so close to dying and his only thought was Eden. He needed to make sure he stayed with Eden, protected her. Loved her. "I told you not to go." Eden said, pouting and sighed. Eden wouldn't let it go for the past 10 minutes. "I had to. Look at the bright side. I was able to stop them." Malakai said back. “No you weren't, he escaped and I had to go after him, again, meaning your attempt was useless.” Eden said, rolling her eyes.“Well
Broken Halo Chapter 65
Black vans and SUVs pulled up to a glass building in Virginia. Not literal glass but a skyscraper, it seemed like some sort of company building. The door was opened for Eden by Astrid, she walked out dressed in all black. She wore a black cropped shirt, a skirt going mid thighs and a black blazer that had the sleeves rolled up. She had her sunglasses perched on her head and she looked like a true business woman, a girl who made her own way in life. Eden screamed rich. With Alec on one side of her and Astrid on the other as her bodyguards, they walked into the building. All eyes turned to them as they walked with authority, but they had to be stopped and checked for security reasons. However, a certain man stopped that.“There's no need to search them, they're my guests.” Said a tall man who looked to be in his 40s. He walked up to Eden and greeted her.“Eden De Luca I presume?” The man said and Astrid snickered and tried not to laugh as Eden corrected him. Alec just stood there like
