Forbidden Attraction.

Tell me.

Putting my shirt on I button it as my mind weavers to few seconds ago, the way she was staring or basically gawking at me just boosted my man ego.

I know it sounds wrong but it feels like an achievement. I never really was a fan of working out and building muscles or abs I usually did it to relive stress and just mentally have some time alone with myself.

But if that's the reaction I'm going to get from Eliza? Heck I love working out.

I literally sound like a love sick fool. If Arya or Flo were to hear my thoughts nor they'd be shocked to their core.

Wearing some cologne and brushing my hair I open the door to find Eliza standing across the stairs.

"Come in" I say giving her room to enter the room and then close it after she enters.

She gives me a questioning look to which I just shrug.
"What did you want to talk about?"

"Uhh Flo said that you gave me my phone a week or more back, is it true?"

"Yeah, why's re you asking now? Did you not get it?" I ask sitting down my bed while she stands.

"She gave it to me a while back, but why did you give it to me back?"

"What do you mean? It's your phone why won't I give it back?" I retort.

"But wasn't I your captivator?" She asks raising a brow?

"That was way back now we are not on those terms anymore, besides when did I ever treat you like one?"

"What about the time you practically killed me with electric shock?" She questions fuming with anger.

Anger looks good on her, this is not the time to decide what looks good or not.

"I was only supposed to scare you I didn't know it was plugged it and it was completely Flo's fault, you know how clumsy she is.."

I will not try to justify myself because I am aware of my actions. I only meant to threaten her not practically harm her.

Her father would have killed me if I did so. After he found out about the shock incident he was on his way to back off the deal but Arya convinced him otherwise.

Anyways..

"What did you want to talk about Eliza?"I ask her clearing my thoughts.

"Earlier, you said you'll handle the family part how do you plan on doing that?"

Lord.

What should I tell her now? I can't practically tell her the truth. That would mean I'd have to reveal so much.

And knowing so much would just bring more and more danger her way.

"Ah that? I'll figure it out" I dismiss her with a shrug which she doesn't seem to buy.

"My family is Muslim, you're Christian! How on earth do you plan to figure it out? My parents are going to shoot you the moment they find out I am staying at your place"

Oh Eliza how wrong you think of your parents.. if they intended on doing so they would have done it long back.

"But I'll convert no? So it won't be a problem." I try convincing her but she looks horrified by my dismissive behaviour.

"Shut up. What are you hiding from me?" "I am asking for the final last time.. how and how are you going to convince them for the marriage?"

W.H.A.T the heck am I going to say her now? I can't possibly tell her the way I convinced her parents. She'll flip so bad she'll want to kill me.

"Eliza how about we calm down?" I stand and try to soothe her by gently smiling and giving her the water bottle.

"Nofreakingway I am going to calm down, you've been dodging the matter for the past two days, you tell me now or I'll find it out myself"

Crap. I am dead. I am no more survival tools left. Being in the killing career for  10 years I've never been any more frightened by a woman. That to one who knows nothing about harming another person.

Here goes nothing.

"So I may or may not have talked to your father beforehand."
I say in a low voice hoping she doesn't hear me.

"What!? What do you mean? What do you mean you talked to my father?" Confusion and worry laces over her facial expressions as she hastily pants.

"First you sit down, this is going to be a long long conversation"
