I sigh in sleep as I turn in bed the room is nearly dark, a little stray of light is getting in through the window. The guard in seated on the couch his right draped over the backrest and he is tapping away in his phone with his left hand.
I’m guessing he is left handed.
I decided to learn to stay with a guard in my room. Damian doesn’t really care about my privacy.
“don’t you sleep?” I ask and he raises is face to look at me.
“you are not sleeping.” He points out ignoring my question.
“yeah. I asked you why you are not sleeping.”
“why? You are planning on running away?”
“it was just a question …. forget it.?”
He is silent for a while. “Taylor.”
“what?”
“The name is Taylor.” He says.
Wait.
Taylor, where have I heard the name?
Anyway it doesn’t matter people hare name probably he is not the Taylor I know.
“what happened to the other guards?”
“why?”
“Damian does not just hire new guards for no reason.” I heave myself to seat up. “it’s either they resigned, which in really doubt. Or they were killed. In fact, the question is who killed them?”
He smirks for a moment before he turns completely to face me, “you’re smart, aren’t you?”
“That doesn’t answer my question.”
“I killed them including the ones that usually stand at the door. If you check, there I no one put there”
“what? How? Why? How did all of it happen?” I’m confused and a part of me is scared.
Could I be in danger?
“I’m only going to tell you that I’m good at what I do.” His phone chimes and suddenly he stands up and walks to the window. “it’s time and I believe you had enough rest, you’ll need it.”
“Time for what?” I ask wondering what is happening.
“I promised someone to get you to them in one piece and breathing.” He turns to me. “don’t make me break that promise.” He takes another glance at me before grabbing my hand and taking me with him. “damn, you two look so much alike.” He mumbles but I don’t care to ask that for now.
“no, I’m not coming with you. Where are you taking me? Let me go!”
He rolls his eyes all the way up before fully turning to talk to me.
“you need to trust me and keep your voice low. Unless you want to remain here and keep living a horrible life with that douchebag.”
“what makes you think I’ll just trust you out of nowhere?”
“because you need to you can always choose to stay stubborn and I’ll knock you out and carry you like a sack. I’m not planning on letting my friends down.”
“who are these friend of yours that you are really willing to stay loyal to anyway?” I’m beginning to get cold feet.
“I don’t have time to give a story.” He lets my hand go. “he is so going to hate me.”and suddenly I get a blow in my head and everything goes black.
*******
My head is hurting like a bitch and I groan as I open my eyes. The room is quite bright and very different. There is no one in the room and I don’t know what is going to happen next.
I make to get off bed and the door is suddenly pushed open and Alec walks in with a huge smile. “I know you missed me.”
“how?” I still don’t get how it all happened.
“don’t worry I kicked his ass for knocking you out.”
Everything is rushing in and I get that Taylor was sent by Alec and the friends he didn't want to let down is Alec and everybody else. I’m going to see everyone and I’m finally going to tell Alec that I love him now that he is here with me and I might not see him again.
I slowly stand and I walk slowly walk towards him and I finally run into his arms I really missed him.
Emotions are running wildly in me and I can’t control them anymore. Slowly let the tears I’ve been holding back flow down my cheeks and I begin to sob.
Alec pulls back and looks me in the eyes. “hey hey don’t cry it’s okay. He won’t take you again.”
“I need to tell you some….” He suddenly crushes his lips on mine before I finish my sentence and he pulls back almost immediately and i can't help but feel deprived.
The butterflies in my stomach are fading slowly when his touch is withdrawn and I want to remain in his arms.
“don’t, you’ll have plenty of time to tell me. But for now the guys are going to kill us for keeping them waiting.” He says winking lazily and i can't help but want to kiss him again.
I sit back as I watch him walk to the door.
