Solar Eclipse of the Heart

Harper

Harper. That was the only name that seemed to occupy my mind lately. She was...well I'm not really sure what. There was something about her. She seemed to be very bright and very sweet, but she was also to kind and trusting. No sane person would have, or better yet should have, delivered that package. If she knew what kind of trouble the man she helped was in, I would like to think she would have steered clear of him. I guarantee if she knew what this package held that she would not have touched it with a ten foot pole. 

"Sir." 

I looked at one of my bodyguards and nodded for him to continue speaking. I must have zoned out of whatever conversation him and I were having.

"Would you like us to find out who that girl is? If she delivered that package then she must be affiliated with that piece of scum."

I instantly scowled at my bodyguard. I may have only spoken a few words to Harper, but I could instantly tell that she was not that kind of girl. She struck me as the type who stayed away from trouble and just wanted others to be happy. 

I took a deep breath before looking at my bodyguard. A calmly as I could I told him,"Just because she dropped this off for him does not mean she has anything to do with him. We have dug up every piece of that man's life and this girl's name has not been mentioned at all."

He swallowed hard, making his adams apple bob, and quickly nodded his head. I looked to my right hand man.

"Bates, you sat with her on the plane. What did you figure out."

He turned to face me, a cold expression sitting on his face. His scar stood out and he took a deep breath.

"Nothing. She was very nervous around me. Kept one earbud out so she could hear me and kept watching me from the corner of her eye. She was polite and kind but did her best to keep her distance."

I nodded. That wasn't much to go on but it did speak justice to her character. 

"Bates as soon as we get back I want information on her. I am not suspicious but I need to be sure she isn't in any possible danger and involved in things she shouldn't be."

Bates nodded and went back to looking straight ahead. Sighing, I tried to focus on getting this package home. The man who gave this package to Harper  is a rat so whatever is in this package is not good. Unfortunately, Harper seems to be overtaking every corner of my mind.
