I am not sure how to react to what I just heard, I wanted to slap my thoughts and throw them outside the door or the window because I could act out on myself for not noticing it, even if I knew it was there. I expected my brothers to be smart but I am smarter.
This was mainly the reason why I am a little reluctant with this No name agent, the anonymous one, or whatever his followers call him but I have to admit it, he is the average girl's, ideal man. And I noted to myself that he is not going to be part of my league. Since he falls for my bait in telling me the report.
"You are not safe now," he told me while taking both of our things out of the chair and began to walk away while his soft, big hands held my available hand. Within my palm area, there was electricity flowing. Just not the same as science, I immediately pulled my hand out but he insisted on holding it with force. It actually hurts.
I am the boss; I will be paying this man but he dared to release some force in dealing with me.
"I have the responsibility to pay the bills here agent," I told him with a faint voice, making sure no one else could hear except for him.
Perhaps he realized what he did was exaggerating since he suddenly let go of the hand, he was holding on to so tightly.
Finally, the electric flow of my palm gradually disappeared.
I handed over the cash to the cashier, she looked at me before shifting her gaze to my agent. Another one is drooling at him huh?
Agent. This one word sounded in my opinion to be another problem because in my mind right now, I wanted to work with this person even if there is a tiny bit of doubt but I would never have an attraction with this person too. He is like a pistol, I release a command then he follows, I am being protected the moment both of us read and agreed with the terms. After the signing, of course.
"Milady, we should go now." He told me. With his tone, I could not seem to find a reason why he said it coldly.
"Milady." He said it again, and I am still not bothered by my thoughts of him and my dumb brothers. I am still busy trying to connect the dots of what just happened. I should just connect it later, later, not now.
With the speed of a human, my agent suddenly pulls me after I got the change. He made me hug him and with my female reaction at strange times, I doubled my basic human speed, I pushed him away from me as quickly as I could. And I am glad that I caught him off guard. I manage to walk out of the room first as my emotional escape.
Heavens, this action, this attraction, it is making me thoughtless at some edges. I never had that kind of electrifying sensation with another man, I also did not experience any similar hug like that with him. In all these twenty-three years, I did not know I have a gentler side with a man. I understood that feelings for other people could not be possible by holding back, but as a woman who lives independently, I must drive this gentle side away, weaknesses are not allowed. With the family challenge, I am in need of a change.
"Wait! Milady, you can't just walk alone!" He called out from behind. Unable to stop him from following me, I paused and frowned at him.
"We are in the hallway, be decent as you are my agent. Screaming will disturb people."
My agent's coolness from before faded out, if he can be cold in working with me, then I can be molded as colder as him too. Locking away the sweet feeling. He ran heading towards me. Damn, these heartbeats are getting louder. Skipping a meal yesterday was a bad idea.
"I know what you meant, Milady. But would you even listen?" He asked breathlessly.
"Then show me the way,"
With wide eyes, he stood straight but his face remained cold even if he is out of breath. Well, for me, it is still possible to listen since I have two active ears, but impossible to keep looking at his face, even the words that were English became blurred when entering the other side of the ear. All I could hear is an oath, a warning, that seems to be pleasing. Somehow, I do not want him to be slipping away from me and just keep him as my agent with an extension.
"I will show you the way but not like this, Milady."
For a moment I froze, it is like my senses were being stilled inside with a block of ice. My eyes were gazing at the elevator that dinged before it opens.
"Tell me you brought an extra gun," I told my agent as he slides down on the left side of the floor to prepare for a brawl. All the thoughts of sweet emotions crashed down, with four hoodlums smirking at us, literally, there is no space for other things in my mind. I must grasp the situation first.
"Here," He finally managed to pass a pistol to me.
"Be careful in using it, Milady." His words were urging me to move forward.
"Four against two? This is not a fair fight but running away will make us look like cowards. So, I suggest we must handle the four with the utmost care." I blinked my eyes at the sight, how could I possibly takeover over the other two at once? I could dare to run through the walls but I must be quick to take a momentum of a perfect kick that forms a degree of angle. I can't explain something to my agent that will make him confused.
