Body….what? I was confused.
"Miss Gem….sorry I'm late…did anyone bully you?" He asked.
Everyone was shocked….how could a handsome man who was fit to be a model or an idol be standing here as a bodyguard.
"Uhmm…. uhmm…. I… uh." I didn’t know what to say….I mean a bodyguard came out of nowhere.
"Let’s go, Miss." He said and dragged me with him.
He pushed me in a flashy car and drove a few distances before he stopped and handed me a file.
"Sign it….and I’ll officially be your bodyguard." He said, "Sign it before I change my mind."
Without thinking I signed the file. He collected it.
"So my salary is 40 thousand ..."
"What!" I yelled, "That’s too expensive Mr, that’s like almost my salary."
"Well, you’ve already signed the file…. so it’s too late to complain. My stuff is in my car so…"
"Your car…..you mean this baby is your?" I asked and he nodded proudly.
"Wow... my bodyguard is quite richer than me," I said in jealousy.
"So as I was saying…..I’d be moving in with you." He said.
"That okay….I live in my family's house…." I said.
"Let’s go first. I have to freshen up…. after that we’ll discuss." He said and I nodded.

When we got home. I gave him the room beside mine.
It was once my room until I was driven to live in the basement. Now that I was using mom’s room, I’d lend him, mine.
Leon got inside the room and it was like a princess's room he frowned.
"I got lots to do up here," he murmured. While he was busy cleaning and arranging the room, his phone rang.
"Kelvin….yes, I'm in….."
"You have to be careful, dude… she must not know she’s our bait," Kelvin said.
"Don’t worry….don’t you trust me? now that I'm in, I’d find a way to use her well." Leon said.
"It’s much easier if she falls in love with you…. how’s that?" Kelvin asked.
"Sounds good," Leon replied.
"But how will you make her fall for you?" He asked.
"Ha, piece of cake….." Leon replied.
Just then a knock was heard from the door. Leon quickly put away his phone and said.
"Come in." He said and I walked in with a wide smile which disappeared when I entered the once-called princess room, it now looked plain and like a knight's room. There were so many package boxes on the floor.
"Wow……!" I said.
"Sorry kitten….I just did some cleaning….do you like it?" he asked.
"It’s fine, it’s fine." I saw it and he smiled... I loved that smile… what’s wrong with me?’
"So kitten… let’s talk." He said.
"Huh? kitten….are you referring to me?" I asked and he nodded.
"The file you signed says I can call you any pet name of my choice." He said, looking innocent.
"What?! let me read that file of yours….I don’t believe you." I said and he handed me the file. I flipped it open and bang……
Your body is mine.
My nose almost bleed.
Etc.
I coughed and coughed, my face was red and flushed….. I looked at Leon only to see him smiling innocently.
"W ..what’s this?" I asked.
"A contract….let’s talk." He said. "Tell me exactly what you need protection from?"
"My family…..oh I forgot to warn you….you must not look or talk or do anything concerning my sister…..she’s the famous goddess Jolene…" I said and he smiled again melting my bones.
"Don’t worry….I'm all yours…." He said seductively and I coughed even harder.
'This is much easier than I thought, she’s falling for me already’ Leon thought.
"I….I didn’t mean it like that!" I said.
"Like what? I didn’t say anything, did I?" He said, I almost coughed out blood.
"I….I have to go." I stood up and ran out.
‘She’s cute’ he thought and smiled even more.
*********
Jolene, Marie, and her father came home talking. Leon was outside viewing the environment.
"Huh? Did you get a new worker, honey?" asked Marie.
"No…. I didn’t." He answered.
"Then who is that handsome young fella?" She asked. Seeing them looking at him, Leon walked up to them and greeted them. Jolene was drawn to his handsomeness.
"Leon! Leon!" I called and saw him standing with my family, why was he standing with them?.
"Who are you, young man?" he asked, before Leon could answer he felt a little hand drag him back and a tiny body stood in front of him, it was like she was trying to protect him from her family.
"He is my bodyguard." She said.
"What! He’s the guy that beat up my men, mom." Jolene protested.
"Nice to meet you all, I'm Leon." he bowed.
"Don’t be nice to them," I said facing him.
"Miss Gem…. I…." Before Leon could say anything again, Gem grabbed his hands and dragged him along with her.
