A reunion with you is bittersweet for I can never forget the many emotions you have given me but for the desire you have for me is nothing but a trial for a future together.
Three months since our last encounter, I can't help but remember that tantalizing kiss almost as if the earth was still and all I could hear were heartbeats intertwined. On occasion I think back to those moments but I don't have enough time to to think about anything else these days except the club.
We are driving to the Frankie's place to settle some business about the club, "Akira how are the funds?" I ask my assistant, he proceeds to me about the current affairs about the club but out of the corner of my eye, almost as if I was dreaming, I saw Amanda.
She was in regular clothes but I could tell it was her, even if it was dark outside I could tell it was her, I stopped the car and got out leaving my guards behind and turned a corner and found her sitting on the stairs of a fire escape to a building, "You were waiting for me?" I ask hoping I was right, she smiles and walks towards me I shuffle back unsure whether to trust her, "Who wants to know?" she says mockingly, she turns around and grabs a black bag next to the dumpster against the wall to the next building over she throws it in front of me, "I came to buy your protection", she stares at me deadpan, "This is the money I have made over my years at the club...most of them tips", I put my hands in my pockets before answering, "After just trying to assassinate me you want me to protect you", she walks towards me, "It's not for me...it's for my little brother", I take on a more serious tone before crouching down to take a look at bag.
It was a large duffel bag mostly used for travel I'm guessing, I zip it open and see rolls of money probably rounding up to two thousand dollars, "Why me?" I asked with curious look as to why my assassinator comes to me for protection, "Frankie has my brother", still wondering what that has to do with me I shrug my shoulders.
"After I tried to kill you Frankie sensed that as a threat to his business...so he decided to 'take care of me' so I went into hiding leaving my brother with my friends', they gave up my brother for money. They now hold my little brother hostage torturing him and I need your help to get him out" she looks away but I can sense her desperateness, "Because your untouchable", she looks at me with hope and need and that drives me crazy.
"How do you know I won't kill you", she chuckles before she answers, "Because with your connections in less than a day you would have had my head on a silver platter", she walks closer to me and just inches away from me she looks up and says, " Besides your more than capable yourself to kill me in less than a few minutes", she lays a gentle hand on my chest and starts sliding it down, "This is the body of a killer", My expression remains calm but my heart is racing like crazy.
Smirking she tries to back away but I hold her wrist and pull our bodies together leaving her surprised as I hold hers towards mine I can feel the heat of both our bodies rise, burning with desire. There I offer her a proposal...
"Why don't you become my wife?" I say with no hesitation, she is left speechless and there we are in the moonlight holding each other
