Chapter 50

|| IRIS's POV ||

" Are you fucking crazy, Iris? You are a S class trained assassin! You can't go back to your words. Tell me, what has gone wrong?"

I squeezed my eyes shut in frustration. How could I tell Artemis what had gone wrong? At the same time, if I decide to go back now, I have to give a wolf an awful explanation. How could I confess to him that I slept with Xavier Gray??

Biting my lips together, I muttered weakly, looking down at my lap,

" I..I am just tired, Artemis! Please...try to convince him..."

Artemis let out a long sigh. Thankfully he didn't question anything. He replied with a shrug,

" Do you think that he would listen to me?"

I couldn't agree less on this matter. Wolf never listened to anyone including his best people. He never trusted his own shadow as well. There was no reason for him to be worried for me. Letting out a frustrated growl, I said weakly,

" Forget it! I will continue as long as I don't get exposed!"

I cut off the line and let out a frustrated groan. Surely, I had no idea how to face the president. It felt so awkward to meet him after everything.

Forgetting the thoughts in the back of my mind, I got up from my bed to dash into the washroom. Standing under the shower, the visions began to play again in my head, the way his body felt and the smell of his shirt. Everything washed over me like rainfall. It felt though his scent was still lingering on my body.

Switching off the shower, I came out of the washroom only to see that my phone was ringing crazily. When I rushed to pick it up, my breathing hitched for a second. It was none other than Mr.President. I grew nervous subconsciously. Why the fuck did I feel shy? It was him who literally banged on me.

Forcing the thoughts away, I answered the call only to hear his cold, demonic voice, sounding deadly through the speaker,

" Come down! We have to go for a visit."

Before I could answer him, he ended the call without a word. I wanted to curse him but remembered that he was waiting downstairs.

How the hell did he act so innocent?

I marched towards my cabinet to pick something to wear. It was a sun-blue dress, and had flowers imprinted on it. I wanted to wear something casual. I definitely didn't want him to think that I was trying to seduce him. Carrying my backpack, I left my apartment without having breakfast.

Down to my apartment, an SUV was parked. His guards were nowhere to be seen which made me wonder where we were heading. The first window of the car slid down. Daniel peeked his head outside before waving his hands,

" Iris!! Over here!"

I smiled back at him nervously. Taking a deep breath, I went over to the car to pull the door. As the door opened, I saw him, dressed in a blue suit, sitting so calmly in his usual worry. I forgot my breathing and my sinful mind reminded me how we fucked each others last night.

Mr.President looked on my way, reminding me in a cold voice,

" Are you coming in or not?"

I snapped back to reality and hopped in his car. He looked so royal. Daniel was driving the car today. I asked from my curiosity, realizing that we were going on an unfamiliar path,

" Where are..we going??"

Daniel replied on his behalf excitedly, his voice sounding childish,

" To my farm house! It's an off day, Irish! I brought the president to cheer us up."

I smiled back at him weakly but a certain part of my mind stayed on the man next to me. Why wasn't he saying anything about last night?

" WELCOME TO MY FARM HOUSE! Look I got the best of everything!!"

Daniel chirped excitedly, gesturing at his big sized farm house. His farm house had everything including wild animals. On one side, the lines of horses were grassing in the field. On the other hand, I could see deer, running in the forests. A few men were racing with the horses. They waved at us as soon as we arrived.

Daniel went to them, leaving me alone with Mr.President. He didn't talk all through the ride. It became more awkward for me to communicate. He finally burnt the bridge, pointing at a way,

" Let's go over there! He has a shooting spot too."

I was speechless by his words. Daniel really had an interesting life. Following Mr.President, we reached the shooting spot. No one was there except us. It felt comfortable to not always have many guards around.

Mr.President began to speak slowly, his hands playing with the shooter gun,

" About last night..."

My face immediately grew red as soon as he mentioned it. Before he had the chance to finish, I blurted out anxiously,

" You..you don't have to apologize.. I mean..we are both adults.."

He shot me a deep agonizing glare. I felt nervous under those eyes but he repeated my words absentmindedly, playing with the gun in his hands,

" That's right... We are adults.. Things like this can happen...Wanna play?"

He pointed the gun in his grip. I could recognize the Japanese gun in one single glance. However being a professional in front of him wouldn't do any good for me. It might raise his suspension again. So, I lied, playing with the edge of my clothes,

" Well..I haven't tried ever...I don't know how to use it..."

He gave me his handsome smirk. Rolling down the trigger, he said calmly, calling me at his side,

" I can teach you..come to me..."

I hesitated for a while before going over to him. He stood behind me, helping me to hold the gun. I acted like a dumb and occasionally slipped the gun from my hands sloppily. He growled in annoyance a few times but was patient with me in teaching. His scent made me warm and cozy. It made me remember how he treated me last night. No matter how many times I tried to erase the memory, the feeling of his touch was still there in my mind. My thoughts were interrupted as soon as he pulled the trigger, making me suddenly wake to reality.

Bang!

I missed the shot on purpose and let out a huff, trying to pull out my hands from his grip,

" I told you..I can't..."

He hissed, seething next to my ears,

" Stop speaking! Try again!!"

We both aimed at the shots again but suddenly I spotted a bull dog, running on our way. Panic crippled in my heart to think about the dog. It was fierce looking and had an aggressive look on its features. It didn't seem like a pet dog and suddenly I was worried about him.

I blabbered anxiously, pointing at the dog which was running on his way,

" Mr.President!! The dog... It's coming for us..No.."

Before I could do anything, the dog attacked him vigorously. He was clumsy and fell on the ground instantly under its vicious attack. Without thinking about the consequences, I aimed the gun at the dog and fired a few times, not missing a single aim.

Mr.President was still on the ground when I hit the shot. He stared up at me for a while before pursuing his lips to question me,

" Didn't you say that you don't know how to use a gun, Miss Young?"

I froze, looking down at my hands which was still holding the hot gun. How did I hit the gun in front of him?
