4. His eyes
Darell glared at her as he clenched his fist, “I have no use for maids” he said as his eye darted into his room, claire was pissed, as he referred to her as a maid, ” well I am more than that” she said trying to pull her stunt from earlier, she rubbed her hands on her thighs.
“Find a place to seat, don’t breathe too much, or speak, victor will be here to pick you up anytime soon”, he said as he tapped a few buttons on his cell phone telling victor to come to pick her up
She had thought of ways she would stay here, even as a maid as long as she gets close enough, “I don’t want to go out there, I owe money I would be killed” she said hurriedly, “I will pay you for the night” he said still not looking at her
“it three million dollars,” she said smiling devilishly, “send the detail” her face fell,
“I am living alone”
” It’s a big world”,
” I need a job,” she finally said in defeat. He seemed to have answers to every question, and a solution to every problem.
” Well this is New York, you could do as much as pizza delivery,” he said, still not looking at her, ” well I am not living” her hands folded on her chest, Darrell just took a look at her, trying to hide his annoyance
“Why don’t you remove your glasses, the world is beautiful you know,” she said, trying to walk towards him, ” don’t ask such silly questions, didn’t your parents teach you to keep shut when you come in contact with strangers?” he asked with a look of grimace on his face.
” well my parents are dead, and secondly you are not any wiser so why advise me?” she asked annoyed that he brought her parents into the conversation, he smirked at her childishness, ” well even a year counts”.
The mighty door opened and a bulky man entered. He wore a black cloak making him look like an assassin, in ancient times, ” take her away from here” Darell said, ” no, don’t you dare!” Claire yelled, jumping on the bed, and hopping around like a bunny.
” choose one, die here, or exit? “Darrell asked, as he got more annoyed by her presence, “I just need a job” pouting, acting was one of her personalities, ” well you have a life to live, at least do that right” Darrell huffed, claire felt hopeless, being stupid isn’t working.
” don’t you dare,” she said pointing her fingers at victor, who was pissed by her presence, ” don’t” he cautioned, looking at victor, he wasn’t so patient, he was like the trigger, only needed to be tempered to cause mass destruction.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Claire noticed Darrell wasn’t so troublesome and decided to exploit his calmness, she ran around the room like a child on hyper juice, she screamed as she ran with her arms stretched out beside her, this is a time when being serious wouldn’t help at all, Darell waved his hands and Victor left immediately
” stop!” he said in a cold tone, and her slender body came to a halt, her heart pounding as if it had just witnessed death, adrenaline toyed with her body, and she wanted a quick release, but it felt like she was compelled to stand
He walks closer to her, still in his glasses, Claire couldn’t avert her gaze off him, as the thought of what he might do if she tried running came knocking. If there was one thing she learned in the agency world being armless was bad, mostly when you are in the lion’s den.
Darell was beside her now, ” you would be going back, and never to return” he said grabbing her hands, as he tried pulling her towards the door she felt a pang in her heart, he snarled at her as she tried to pull her hands off, ” why” she asked, her presence was a living enigma
Darell was speechless at the lady before him, he had no answer for that, for the first time, he had no answer, he stared at her, her hair was falling on the oval face now, he took note of her ocean blue-eyed, the little freckle on her nose, he had seen those freckle map somewhere
soon he began to fidget slightly as she bit her lower lip, making him surprisingly hard, her ocean eye held his as they stared at each other for ages
Claire was lost as well, she stared at his facial features even the wrinkles that were slowly subsiding on his forehead were like a rough path to mystery, who could this man be? he was much more than a drug dealer and a shareholder at a tech company
And what might be behind those glasses that he would never show anyone, she stretched her hands, trying to pull it, just immediately the door opened and three men came in, with bags and ropes in their hands, the distraction pulled them out of oblivion.
” Tie her up now,” Victor said, as two other men strode before her, grabbing her from behind, her eyes were on Darrell as she was being tied up it looked and felt like they were communicating through their eyes.
A bag was placed on her head, and her hands were tightly tied behind her, she struggled but all to no avail, there’s no turning back now, she can’t fight it, she hissed in disgust, as she was pulled out of the room, her heart was pounding fast and hard now, and she hated it that she was lost a few second backs
She had no idea what happened, and neither did Darrell, he had his eyes fixed on her back as she was pulled out of the room, then victor took the lead carrying her on his shoulder while the other two men dispatched.
She yelled occasionally trying to raise an alarm, but instead he stuffed clothes into her mouth. She could grab his gun from the hostler but never in his territory.
Along the way she exercised her skill by using her tongue to push the thin fabric down, regulating her breaths as well
They zoomed off and soon the car came to halt, she was tossed on the floor, fast and hard, “hey!” she yelled as she successfully spat the clothes from her mouth, ” you don’t want to stain your hands with my blood take the clothes away” she said.
Why? victor’s hoarse voice echoed in her eyes, ” because your boss wouldn’t like it she said smirking, she had just taken the bull by the waist, victor grinned it was painful but the truth, ” you are what a woman should not be ” he snarled, “thanks” she replied, he leaned further pulling the bags away from her head
Her hand were loose from their bondages all thanks to her laser rings, immediately Victor came close to her she bangs his head with a stone which sends him to the floor immediately
