Under My Protection | Mayadere Bodyguard x Reader

1

Y/n has always grown up in a rich family which may sound nice but in reality, it can be dreadful. Her family has always gotten death threats and people coming after them for money but as years progressed the threats seemed to have paused and even though there aren't as many her father wanted to take safety repercussions and hired Y/n a personal bodyguard because she was his only child and for that, he wanted to protect her.

A knock at the door startled Y/N from her book. Her legs swung to the floor as she jogged across the foyer to get to the door. She stood on her toes and looked through the peephole and sighed in relief seeing who it was. She turned the handle and opened the door

"Well hello, it's nice to meet you finally. I'm Y/n" She smiles holding out her hand for him to take.

On the other side of the door was a gentleman who stood a nice 6'4 his hair shaggy and brown lips pulled into a thin line and a stubble resting on his face. He'd worked for many agencies as time went on and most of them not always being legal, He was trained from birth to use every weapon known to man but was classified as too soft for most jobs. Now he was hired to protect Y/N. He usually didn't take jobs protecting people but he wanted to make a change for the better.

He softly smiles back taking her hand "It's nice to meet you, ma'am, I hope I can be of service. My name is Gabriel Silvano ." He then proceeded to bow.

Y/n was a bit taken aback by his manners most guards in past only worked for the money and nothing more. What also surprised her was how young he looked She assumed he was around her age.

"What a gentleman." She chuckled mimicking his actions she curtsied when she got back up a small gust of wind followed "How about you go inside? It's getting a little chilly."

He nodded at her request and gladly entered when she allowed him to. He was definitely working for money but it wasn't the only thing he cared about he assumed he might as well make friends during his time here.

Once inside he looked around "You have a beautiful home ma'am, I can tell you take pride in a clean house ." He complimented

She nods "Thanks, you never know who's gonna drop by for a visit." She responded while trotting up the almost endless number of stairs
"If you please follow me I'll show you where you'll be sleeping."

Gabriel gladly followed her up the stairs, making sure to take a mental note of every part of the house. "If I may ask, you keep every door and window locked correctly? You look like your intelligence would match your beauty but it's a question I have to ask."

She let out a breathless chuckle as her cheeks turned color ever so slightly. "Uh yes I do but you are more than well to have a second look." She glance back at him while She talked seeing how he walked a lot slower than her. As they walked it became quite the only sound coming from her shoes clicking against the tile floor. It was painfully awkward for the two as they walked across the hall and to his new bedroom.

Y/n cleared her throat finally reaching his room at the very end of the hall "Welp this is my room is straight to the left if you need me and dinner will be ready in an hour,"

"Thank you very much" He bowed once again and gave another smile.

Y/n gave him a small nod before walking off in the other direction leaving him to sort his things out.

He went inside the room and quickly closed it to get all his "things" in order. He wasn't a very secretive man but He did keep things to himself now and again. Once He was done, He decided to give the house a look over just to make sure no one was watching them on their way in, and to make sure all the doors along with the window were locked up tight.

Meanwhile, while Y/n was in her room she stood at the door a moment "Right..." she muttered remembering what she'd come in the room to do. She dug through her dresser pulling out some nightclothes and undergarments neatly laying them out on her bed then slipping into the shower.

During her shower, she thought she heard a noise which caused her to stop and pause to see if she'd hear it again but realized it was nothing and shrugged it off so she stopped the water and reached over and grabbed her towel and wrapped it around her body.

She took on step out of the shower but almost instantly regretted it as her foot slipped from under her causing her to fall with a loud bang followed by a scream.

Once Gabriel was done checking for locks, He took a look around the house, wanting to know a little more about Y/N and what she did. He took a glance at different pictures on the shelves and softly rubbed his chin " Hm guess her family is really rich, no wonder someone would want to attack her" he said talking to himself "Hmm wonder wh-" he cut himself off when he heard the scream he almost immediately rushed his way up the stairs to help. He kicked in the door "Ma'am I'm here!" his gun was drawn and ready to fire.

It took me a few minutes t register what happened and when he saw Y/n on the ground, he waited no time kneeling to her aid "Ma'am are you ok? Is there an intruder?"

She grunted sitting up and rubbing the back of her head "Yeah I'm ok. There's no one here.. I just hit my head." she reassured. He just nodded and slid the gun back into his pants
She took a notice of the gun in his hands and realized how fast he had gotten to her "Thank you for coming so fast...and prepared." She sat up more on the floor and quickly grabbed the towel to recover herself "Sorry.." she mumbled turning a shade of red

He stood and realized the situation, blushing as well "My apologies ma'am, i didn't realize you were showering. I'll take my leave"

"It's fine," she says giving him an exhausted smile while waving her hand in the air dismissively struggling to stand for a moment before getting up.

Gabriel was just as embarrassed as Y/n was and it clearly showed on his face as he covered his eye and made his way to the door once he left Y/n walked into her bedroom and began to change into then went downstairs for dinner but not before wanting to thank Gabriel again.
