The light rays of the sun peeked into the room and Hazel slowly opened her eyes and she caught sight of the man sleeping close to her and she blushed.
Her mind went back to the night before and the hot steamy sex they had and her face reddened.
" Why are you blushing?" Rome asked without opening his eyes.
she quickly turned her face, " I thought you were fast asleep".
" How could I when someone didn't allow me sleep for the whole night and kept asking for more until the goddess of sleep left me" he replied teasingly and she smacked his arms.
" Sly fox" she muttered under her breath.
" Thank you Hazel" He said after few minutes with all sincerity.
" For what?" she looked confused.
" For agreeing to become my woman, I thought I was over you these two months but I was lying to myself".
she sighed, " it's not as easy as we think Rome, you have your work and I have mine, your father would never allow us to be together, am not the perfect person for you" she said as a matter of fact.
" Hazel, everyone both in the business world and the underworld all fear me but you are the only woman who is not afraid of me, don't worry, I will handle everything, just keep being my woman, I really love you Hazel".
" Romeo.... "
He interrupted, " After tasting you, I can't live without you no more, I want you every single minute around me that is why I want you to quit being an assassin"
" What?, it's nearly impossible" she replied.
" But not impossible, I want you out of that world Hazel, let me do it for you, let me take revenge on your uncle for you,let me do the Killings for you,you are too innocent to be in that world, I don't want you getting into any kind of danger, I won't be able to bear it, please baby" he said as he cupped her face.
" But I love what I do and am not only an assassin, I do other things to".
" I will help you overcome it all Hazel, be it your drug addiction and every other thing I will help you".
" I need to think about this Rome" she said and got of the bed and began to get dressed.
" where are you going?" he asked.
" somewhere I need to cool off, am not running away".
" But hazel...."
she interrupted," I have spent years in the hood Rome and I can't just give it up just because you are asking nicely,I have done alot of things in the underworld and I must accomplish my mission before I step down, Rome I suffered right from when I was a child until I became an adult, this thing you are asking me is really hard for me so please let me just be for a while, I will be back for you baby, I promise, just don't look for me, I will come back on my own"
" Do you want to go after your uncle now Hazel?" he asked.
" It's better to eliminate the root cause of the problem so that it doesn't sprout evil, just allow me do this on my own Rome, I really don't need your help" she bent over and kissed him," make sure you convince your dad before I get back" saying that she took her backpack and walked out of the room.
