Chapter 59
|| ARTHUR's POV ||
My little flower has grown up......
I watched her leave through the exit aimlessly. The hesitation was clear on her face when I passed her the folder. I had been the king of the dark world for a reason. If I couldn't see through her mind, how did I deserve to be a boss?
Her stiff body disappeared into the car slowly. For some reason, I badly wanted to tie her today. Sending her to Xavier Gray wasn't settling well in my mind these days. Whenever she appeared next to him as his secretary, something burnt my heart. The emotions became so alive that I made up my mind of shifting here.
Five Years Of Engagement!
I knew that I wasn't treating her like a lover. What could I do? In Mafias, you are trained to be emotionless. Having a heart was a big risk. But it seemed like she still managed to break through my barrier.
Before my godfather died, he wanted me to take a woman as my wife or at least commitment. Although I had no objections, he chose Iris for me. Before that,Iris had been a part of my gang members since she was 13. I still remembered the day vividly. She took down two of my boys with a gun who tried to harass her in a bar. At that time, she had no experience. Even the fires that she shot all went around cluelessly. On that day, I saw the fire in her eyes, the stubbornness to survive in this world.
Years later, she became the first class killer of my organization. However, I failed to erase emotions from her heart. She only killed those people who were sinned or did any crime. I couldn't even remember when I began to fall for her. Maybe when she acted like a clingy girlfriend or tried to brainwash me for fulfilling her wishes of studying. I acted annoyed on the surface but deep down, I liked when she considered me of her own people.
When I sent her away, I thought that it was cool for me. But her closeness to Xavier Gray evoked emotions inside me. I wanted her to complete the mission as soon as possible. She kept delaying and made me shift back to this country. We started some legal business here to fight against Xavier Gray. My sole target was to get rid of him from the president's position.
Xavier Gray wasn't the only reason of my hatred. He owed it to me including his family. I couldn't deny the fact that he had been a good president for years. But for his business, he interfered with mine several times. Our enmity started more when he found the buried truth.
Grabbing a whiskey, I sipped it slowly, remembering our days abroad. There was a spark in her eyes whenever she saw me but today, I saw nothing. Her reaction said that she was trying to hide something from me. I hated to see that she dressed so nicely for other man. In our house, she used to dress up like a man always. She did it so oftenly that I almost forgot how she would look like in a woman's clothes. She called it more comfortable while fighting with the enemy.
I was so lost in my imagination that I failed to hear the door opening. Aden, my right handed man approached me slowly, concerned lacing out of his voice,
" Wolf, what if she doesn't switch the file? Are you still gonna ask her to continue this mission?"
I let out a small laugh. I loved Aden for a reason and he proved it today again. Even without discussion, he knew what I was thinking about. I finished the whiskey in my hand, replied after plopping down on the bed,
" I want to see that, Aden. It's not a mission of Xavier Gray, it's a mission of her heart."
Aden didn't seem satisfied with my answer. He hesitated before starting in a deep voice,
" Wolf..I think, you are giving her too much priority..She can betray you or our whole organization. If she tells him about our organization to Xavier Gray, we are all finished. Just allow me..I will kill her in a single day."
Rage burst into my heart in a second. Without my conscience, I pulled out my gun to point at Aden and shouted madly,
" ONE MORE WORD! I WILL BURY YOU HERE, ADEN! I TOLD YOU TWICE ALREADY! NO ONE..NO ONE CAN TOUCH A SINGLE HAIR OF HER BODY UNLESS THEY HAVE A DEATH WISH. YOU HEARD ME?"
Aiden lowered his eyes instantly in submission. I could tolerate everything except harming her. She could do anything with me but not get rid of me. Iris's name was sealed with me the day when I put the engagement ring on her finger.

" WHERE DID YOU GO??"
My angry voice startled her. She looked back at me with horror in her eyes. She had gone missing for more than two hours. Right after our planned date, she was supposed to get in my car but no one saw where she went exactly. After waiting in the restaurant for two hours, I headed back home only to find out that she wasn't home either.
I had a panic attack over her vanishing. Soon after, I tried to track her location but strangely, they couldn't find her anywhere. It had only meaning that she had gone to a place in which network connection was restricted. I wondered where she could go except her apartment? Was she really hiding something from me?
Iris looked up at me nervously. I could see her all dressing up. If she wanted to go on the date, where did she go in the middle? She spoke first with a nervous smile,
" You... you are back..."
I got up in rage to pull her hastily, her round chest falling on my chest,
" I am asking, where did you go? My professional team couldn't access your location. I wonder, what special place that you have gone to?"
Iris stayed silent for a few seconds. Afterwards, she pushed me away with an arrogant scoff,
" I am a hacker, Mr.President. Do you think that I would allow anyone to catch me up? My friend had an accident. I had to rush to her place. Sorry, I forgot to inform you because I was so messed up in my head."
Her response brought relief to my mind. For a brief moment, I suspected my beloved girl. Her arrogant side had always turned me on. Keeping my anger away, I pushed her again against me to ask shamelessly,
" What about our date? How are you going to compensate for it for me? You know, I fucking booked the whole restaurant."
Her lips pulled into a lovely smile. Glancing around the room, she suggested with a seductive smile,
" We can always have a date here. Place doesn't matter in date as long as we are together."
I couldn't help but grinning at her words. Probably it was another time that I had fallen for her hard. My experience with all the women had been proven wrong who always expected an exaggerating date from me. On my second thought, a wicked idea flashed across my mind. I bent down to lick her ears softly, whispering in a lustful voice,
" That's not enough for me, baby! I want a better view..an erotic...I missed your body already.."
Her cheeks turned pink in shame. However she raised her head boldly, muttering in a deep voice,
" You will get your reward, Mr. President but first tell me, when is your next campaign?"
