Chapter 2

Listen to: Happy With Me by Holychild

I woke up the next morning, Ronin was not on the bed. I brushed my teeth, ran a brush through my hair and put on my robe and stepped out. I wonder how I remember all the things Matilda showed me yesterday cause I was sure she didn't have my full attention. Outside my room was a guy I saw at our wedding but didn't master his name. I raised my brows

"Good morning,-" he said. He didn't know what to use

"Morning, Anna, just call me Anna" a look of relief crossed his face, I wonder why.

"Raptor, specifically appointed me as your new bodyguard." he said, his arms folded across his chest, tattoo all over his arm and neck and a few on his face, alongside two right eyebrow piercing . His dark blonde hair was styled in a taper fade.

"Excuse you, I don't need a babysitter" I walked past him and down the stairs, I'm pretty hungry and I need to eat, skipped dinner last night.

"Yes you do. You are Raptor's wife, you are in more danger than you have ever been in your life and you can't just waltz into town and think you will be safe." he pulled me towards the opposite direction, I just got here yesterday, what was I supposed to do?! Telepathically know where everything is?! This guy seems to take his job seriously though

"Yes, that is exactly what I think" no, that wasn't what I thought at all, I haven't even given it much thought either. I turned to face him. "What do you mean by am in more danger than I have ever been?"

"Raptor is invincible. Having a wife shows a weak point, people would try to get to him through you" his face is expressionless. Ronin has an expressionless face too and his(Ronin) is worse, I could still read the irritation in-- I never asked for his name--'s face, but the only time Ronin ever shows any emotion is when I am speaking to him and he acts like am not there, emphasizing how pissed he is at the idea of marrying me. It doesn't happen often,

"And do you think that if I get attacked by lets say a dozen bad guys you could ward them off" I stood arms akimbo. He looked like he could throw a punch, I don't doubt that

"A dozen might be a tad bit to many but you would be surprised at what I can do, especially with a gun in hand" he is taller than me too. He bent down to my level just to emphasize his point.

"Uh-huh. A person has to be afraid of a man with a gun right?, nothing is more dangerous." I turned around and continue my trip to the kitchen.

"Not always. I mean, you should fear Raptor more when he is with a knife or dagger than when he is with a gun." he replied and I think he shivered a little as we walked into the kitchen where Matilda and the other maids were.

"Good morning everyone" I greeted them

"Morning" the replied, I heard it as a sound in the background cause I was facing--geez, what's his name-- again.

"I didn't catch your name" I looked up at him

"Big G" he replied. Thrusting his chin in my direction. With the way he said his name he must be someone people fear

"Am not calling you that. What's your real name" he paused for a while and looked hesitant but later voiced out. "Roman."

"Thats a really cute name. Roman" I tried it out and he winced like he had been punched real hard in the gut "do you have a problem with me calling you that?" he shook his head "well good, cause I would have told you to get used to it big boy" I have him a pat on the arm and sat by my now served breakfast.

"Thanks" I smiled at the ginger head maid that placed it on the counter. "You're welcome" she smiled back at me, she has a very beautiful smile.

I spent the rest of the day receiving a tour of the mansion. There is a pool at the back. It would have been great if I knew how to swim. Everything was nice and expensive. He (Ronin) had four cute dog that Roman told me were Akita, a japanese breed. They are really alert dogs. He also had three thoroughbred green monkey horses and two horse babies-- whatever they are called. And of all the things I was shown, what caught my eye was a room with red door that neither Matilda nor Roman told me what was in it, just that I should never go in there and that Ronin would freak if he finds me there.
