Few weeks later

Matt Murdock has only loved one woman in his life, and he believes that was and always will be Elektra.

A woman driven by passion and rage. Sure, she was attractive and wild, never judged Matt.

And Matt felt like Elektra understood him, of course that was until he discovered that she's a blood thirsty killer, who can't control herself.
She also tried to bring Matt into her dark path, and that became the end of their relationship.

But even years later, Matt still thinks that Electra was his true love.
After her, he never had a serious relationship, and can you blame him? Elektra really messed up his views for love,

well that was until he met you.

Matt thinks that you're the opposite of
Elektra, not that he's compering you to her. But that is true, you're nothing like Elektra Nachos.

You're driven by your love and creativity. You're the first lay of sunlight after a night full of storm.
And Elektra is the stormy night. She's also like a volcano, never sure when she's going to explode.
And you, Matt thinks you're calm like the ocean. At least your lips taste that way and your kiss comes in waves.
Matt also thinks that he could
fall in love with you.

Well that was all until last night.

Because last night, he overheard something that changed everything.

"Are you crazy? What are you doing? You know, that lingering in Murdock's bed sheets will only complicate everything? And you want my advice, well you know what I would say, and I think that's why you called me. You need to take this very seriously. He can be dangerous. I hope you're staying safe, I love you and I can't wait to see you. Daisy and everyone else are okay, they miss you too"

A voicemail.

You played it on your phone, when you were leaving Matt's apartment. You should've been more careful.

Matt didn't think a lot of it at first. This doesn't mean that you know, right? I mean you can't know Matt's full identity, his nighttime job...

He couldn't sleep at all that night.

He started following you in the morning.

It was Sunday, you finally had a break from the gallery.

Your routine was simple.

Every Sunday, you started your day with a morning coffee run. You walked to the nearest coffee shop, and you walked with grace. Greeting your new-found neighbors, and your local barista Ally. You always made small talk with her, and every time you talked to her, you learn something new about her.

You took you usual spot, the one next to the windows and you looked outside. Something was off, you thought that someone was watching you. But that's not the first time you've thought that.
'You're delusional, get over it' you murmur to yourself, and you continue to type something on your laptop.

Paperwork, you've always hated it.
Never knew how to start, but still the words:

" Matthew Murdock also known as the devil of hell's kitchen: analyses "

echoed through your ears, and slowed your heart down.

'What the hell am I going to do know?' You thought to yourself.

( Here's a really short chapter, but the secrets are finally getting revealed...
Side note: the barista Ally has no meaning to the story, she's not a clue...
I expect to finish the next chapter this following week and maybe try to finish the whole story before June? We'll see... till then I hope you have a wonderful day/night )
