Assassin In Love | Ethan Dolan

e i g h t

Rose's POV

I waited in the conference room patiently for my boss. I fiddled with my fingers and all the bad memories start to invade my lonely mind.

Flashback:

Dad! What are you doing to Mom?! Dad, stop pulling Mom's hair! Don't touch her! Stop hurting Mom!

I cried and wiped my tear-stained face. I saw my Mom's bruised face. The agony plastered on her now, badly bruised and bleeding face. I froze. I didn't know what to do.

So, I shook myself back to reality and called the cops. I wasn't sure if it was an emergency or not but my Mom was bleeding. I had to help.

"Hello 911, what is your emergency?"

"H-help! My Dad, he's hurting my Mom! She's bleeding! S-s-sir, y-you have to help me..." i whispered as tears start to stream down my face again.

"Okay, sweetheart. I will send help over there, okay? Can you tell me where you live?" he replied, with a concerned tone.

"111, A-apple Street."

"Alright, now do you want to stay on the line with me?" he asked, once more.

"P-please," I pleaded.

He stayed on the line with me as I waited for the police and ambulance to arrive. One of the officers pulled me away to interrogate me. A nice lady was questioning me with words I could barely understand and I answered her the best I could. Occasionally, I would have to ask her about what the 'tough' words meant. She would smile sweetly and answer my enquiry in layman terms.

As she was questioning me, I saw my father being dragged away from the house entrance. Apparently, he was arrested for domestic and drug abuse.

-End of Flashback-

The door swung open with such force that I startled myself. I stood up from my seat as a sign of respect for my boss. I waited for him to take his seat before sitting back down again.

"Okay, Rose. What have you gathered?" he questioned.

I told him about Eugene's position and he's relations with Lawrence and his brother Griffin. Then, I told him about the masquerade ball that's held annually in Sicily, Italy.

Afterwards, I told him about all the other stuff that weren't as important as the ones I told him first. However, these 'unimportant' information might be useful in the future.

"Fantastic!" he rejoiced.

"Rose, have you met with Ethan?"

I nodded.

"Alright, I'll give you his address and his picture via iMessage later on and you can do what you best."

"Stalking?"

"Precisely!" he chuckled.

I smirked as we had a little moment of giggling. We said our goodbyes and left the building.

I won't deny it. I drooled while analysing this picture. I kept my phone in my bag and headed to my motorcycle. I drove all the way home and caught on some sleep because I wanted to do some spying tonight.

- s k i p  12  h o u r s -

So it was already midnight and I am still deciding on what uniform to wear. Just so you know, I don't have a specific uniform- anything black will do. It's the normal standard.

I picked out a black one-piece and jeans. I grabbed my leather jacket and headed out to the location. I will probably not get any information but I wanted to see their mansion since I was curious.

It took me a good thirty minutes to drive out to their house from mine. The view was breathtaking. The spots I would usually stay at when spying on someone from the outside of their house would be the windows, doors, backyard or the roof.

The roof would be my favourite hiding spot because people don't usually hang out on their roof at night. Luck was obviously not on my side for the night since Griffin and Eugene were staring into the dark night and bright stars on the roof.

At least I'll be able to eavesdrop right??

I tip-toed over to the nearest corner to listen to their conversation. I made sure that there was a bush nearby as my standby cover just incase I get caught but I rarely get caught since I'm so dang good at eavesdropping.

I inhaled and exhaled silently as I listened to their conversation.

"Yo Gray, you know that brunette I saw at the grocery store?"

"Yeah, what's up about her?"

"Wanna bet?"

"Hell yeah. I bet 200 bucks that you'll get her into bed in one hour the next time you guys meet."

"Alright, I bet 500 bucks that I'll get her into bed in, thirty minutes."

"Woah! Being ambitious, are we? Whatever, I'd love to see her face once you finish her. It'll be hilarious!" the guys laughed, hysterically.

So, he thinks he can f*ck and dump, huh?

They continued laughing for a few more seconds and in that moment I was fuming with anger. They treat women like we're toys to be played with and then, when they get bored they throw us in the dump, leaving us and making us feel like trash.

I rolled my eyes eventhough I knew no one was going to see it and waited a little longer.

"Alright, let's go in, E."

"Okay."

I moved backwards slowly to hide behind the bushes whilst looking up to look at what they were doing. They stood up and slowly escalated down from the top of the roof to the bottom. They swiftly jumped onto the balcony and went through the sliding door. I could hear them conversing with their, parents? I'm not sure.

I took one last look at their house and memorised the little details.

Steel fence. Potted plants on the right. Red roof. Oak front door. And, knee-level bushes on the left.

I left the area to find my motorcycle. I parked it at another neighbourhood so that I can still run to my motorbike if I was caught.

I jogged to my baby and swung my leg over the seat and sped off to the secluded highway.
