Chapter 6 - Chapter 6

You.... want me to do what? Elena asked in disbelief as her eyes went back to the picture. Marco simply shrugged.

It is one of the subjects of the contract, others will be communicated to you later, and you have to find a way to do it, so that no one will suspect anything.

You want me, to make him fall in love, with me? She asked in a surprised tone, as she stared at him as though he just blabbed. Well that is just impossible. She declared, and he sighed deeply.

Turning to her, he took her hand in his, and then gave her a reassuring smile.

Lena. You and I know that you don't have Much choice. He said calmly, and her eyes began to wail up with unsheaded tears.

Did you get to see Nehita? How is is? Please, she cannot be harmed I beg you. Elena cried out, and he pulled her into a hug.

I'm sorry Lena, but you really have to obey your father this time, else I won't guarantee your sister's safety. He whispered into her ear, and a single tear successfully rolled down her cheek.

He is a monster Marco, I hate him so fucking much. She told him in tears, and he chuckled.

I know Elena. I mean who will break her own fathers head if she doesn't hate him? He asked whilst chuckles, and she flushed in embarrassment.

A comfortable silence settled between them. He was still hugging her, and she couldn't help the satisfied smile that crept to her face as she thought of how good it felt hugging him, but the excitement was only short lived, because he tapped her shortly after.

You ain't sleeping right? He asked with a voice that exposed his smiles.

No. She replies shortly, and quickly pulled away from him, and quickly hid her face away from him so that he wouldn't see how flushed she was.

He laughed cutely at that. You don't have to feel embarrassed Lena. He said as he slowly lifted her fallen face with his two middle fingers, and turned her to look at him. I missed you so much Elena. Did you miss me too? He asked with all sincerity, and she swallowed hard.

Telling him that she missed him will be an understatement, because ever since she ran away from home, she had lived like a ghost, wondering whether she would ever see him again.

Without thinking, she cupped his cheeks, and kissed him hard. He paused for a spit second, and then kissed her back with the same intensity which made her heart gladden.

Elena, are you even listening to me? Marco asked when he realized that her attention was lost. Everything was nothing but an imagination; all the intimate parts of course. When he tapped her softly to get her attention, she jerked up fully awake from her imagination only to meet his prying eyes, staring at her as though he could see right through her.

You weren't listening to me, where you?. He asked calmly, and she blushed from embarrassment.

I'm sorry, I got carried away. She apologized shortly, and he gave her a small smile.

Sure. Well I was saying that you have to begin with immediate effect. He said seriously, and she nodded in response.

Slowly, her eyes shifted back to the picture on the table, and she swallowed her fears.

I can do it, I have to. She muttered, and sank back to the couch in deep thoughts.

Luckily, your father gave me enough time, so we could have some drinks before I leave. He said with a smile, and stood up ready to leave when she held unto his hand.

I don't think that is a good idea. I need to head back home now. She told him sincerely, but he wasn't having any of it. He slowly removed her hand from his with a smile on his face.

No Lena, you have to shake off a little before you resume work. You are being too stiff necked. He told her, and then smiled at her. Don't worry, I will be back before you know it. He said and walked off immediately after.

Her eyes followed his movement, and she smiled evolutionary. His well defined back was turned to her as he made his way out of the lounge where they sat. His snake tattoo on the back of his neck seemed to be staring right at her, and it felt completely strange to her.

Forcing herself to focus at the matter at hand, she sought of ways in her head to get the deed done, but non was fought coming. Was she to walk up to him and say: "Hi, I am Elena and I need you to fall in love with me in 2 months?". That was completely lame.

Or she could just walk up to him with baked cakes and say "Hi, I like you, can we date?". Well truth be told, she certainly wasn't a relationship person, and she didn't know how to go about this task. Maybe she should seek help from Amelia who was very good at flirting, but what would she tell her exactly?

"Amy I need your help in helping me get someone to fall in love with me real quick". Only that will get Amelia to question her greatly, but that would be very risky.

Soon, Marco returned with a bottle of alcoholic drink and 2 glasses, he wore a satisfied smile on his face as he approached.

I don't drink Marco. She said simply, and he scoffed.

Come on Lena, don't be a kill joy now. Just a few glasses wouldn't do you any harm. He said, and poured her a glass.

She wasn't by any means ready to refuse him. How could she trade more hours with him for anything? She quickly took a shot, and he grinned at her before pouring her another glass.

She washed it down too, but he didn't stop pouring her more drinks, but she wasn't complaining because the excitement in his eyes and the smile on his lips as he gave her more drinks, was too her worth drinking even gallons if she has to, and slowly, she started drifting away.

She didnt know what happened or how it happened, but all she knew was that she was suddenly in a room, removing her cloths, and having sex with one who was supposed to be Marco, her first love.
