"How did you get here? Did you follow me? You're a real creep you know?"
I break down crying again happy to see a friendly face and explain everything to him.
He looks at me remorsefully.
"I don't need your pity right now, I need your help, so please, just once, can you help me?"I said as I could feel the tears running down my eyes automatically.
"I can't help you if you continuously cry... why don't you come and work for me, "he says with no hesitation written on his face.
I nod my head vigorously with no hesitation.
"I didn't know you're the princess. Just know that on this job I won't feel sorry for you ... we're both fighting for the same cause" he says
"You wouldn't need to, cause I'm going to take revenge and I need you to teach me everything you know."
"We start from tomorrow but now, I'll prepare a room for you"
He leads me to my room and before we could separate paths he says ,"8 sharp ... we'll leave. I'm really sorry for what you had to go through"
THE NEXT MORNING
The next day I woke up to the smell of delicious food. I see him looking at me in a weird way which worries me. He then suddenly comes so close to me, I was scared in case he hears my heart pounding. He then flicks my head back and walks away.
{shoot, that was too close ...WHAT WAS I THINKING !!!! I should have just declined instead ... but why are his words still stuck in my head}
"Okay, get prepared were going to head off to rendevous point."
[Luke promise me that if anything happens to me you will take good care of her, I'm sorry for making my own burden yours. It's ok to hate her. Just promise me you'll kill her]
"She's not a burden", he mumbled.
"THERE,use this. We wouldn't want anyone to know your true identity" as he passes a wig to me.
"Luke thank you so much for everything."
He looks at me flustered with a hint of guilt on his face as he debriefs me on what i have to do.
"From now on your name is not Astrid,it's Delilah.Are you sure you want to this, you know once you start there's no turning back.just tell me what to do and I'll help-"
"No, this is something I have to do on my own",she said as she took the gun.
Luke watched in shock of how she took down 25 bad guys in a room without using a gun.He had never seen anyone fight hard and fast especially Astrid who has a small built. He watches as Astrid comes out of the house with gun in her hand fully loaded and blood on her face.She had a cold dead look on her face which he had never seen in someone like her so bubbly.
