Kleptonic Love

Chapter 7

Deon

Simone walked in front of me and I could clearly see that she was nervous.

What was there to be nervous about? We have to protect ourselves and be prepared for anything.

As we traveled down the stairs Simone looked back at me then quickly looked away. That gave me enough time to notice her beautiful green eyes were glossy and had fear in them.

I hate that I put her in this position but we have to do this. Otherwise we'll die. Simone doesn't deserve this so i sure as hell was not going to let her die.

No.

Not on my watch.

Simone stopped at the door and I watched her breathe in and out.

I turned her around taking off my mask only at the mouth. "Give me a kiss." I told her.

She removed her mask from the bottom and gave me a long kiss. Her lips shook as she let go telling me that she was scared.

I wanted to tell her it was okay, but it wasn't. And it won't be; because what she didnt know was that Egor and I knew the exact time she would come back. Simone will have to kill someone but I refuse to tell her that.

She's scared enough.

Simone

After kissing Deon I opened the door and was quickly welcome with a pleasing sent of vanilla fragrance.

Deon immediately went to check the back rooms.

"Check this room right here then go watch the door." He said to me pointing at what I assume is the master bedroom.

I watched Deon disappear behind a door and a shut it behind him.

I scanned around the living room before I had entered and man.. this was such a beautiful house. It was nicely decorated with what I'm assuming was expensive things.

I suddenly became envious of the life Cadince has, how she had everything. A wonderful apartment, expensive jewelry, money, everything a woman could hope for.

Unlike our apartment there were no cracks in her walls, scruff marks on the wooden floor, no square tiled ceiling. She had a nice white wall, polished wooden flooring, and a clean white ceiling.

Scanning and observing her apartment made me realize the life Deon and I could of had if it weren't for the debt we were put in.

I had always wanted to be a home designer for people who didn't know how to decorate their houses. For people who wanted to paint their walls royal purple for their new coming family member.

"Simone what the hell are you doing!?" Deon voice boomed causing me to jump out of my imagination. "Why aren't you looking for anything!?"

"Sorry I got distracted." I said fear overcoming my body.

"Don't be sorry be fucking careful. Stop admiring the fucking apartment and look for things." He said walking off. "Stupid bitch."

I won't lie. That hurt. Like hell. I've been called many names by him before but bitch was never one. He becomes a completely different man once we're on the job, he treats me more like a coworker than his girlfriend that he knows is sensitive.

I fought back tears as I looked through many drawers picking up necklaces and bracelets. I opened a cabinet and seen a box. A small time box, almost like a wedding ring carrier.

I opened it and there it was. A diamond. A beautiful shining diamond. It was shinning in its glory and I could help but think about marriage.

I wanted to get married. I wanted to wear an expensive diamond ring and purposely show it off to the friends I didn't have. But that's impossible with the life we had now.

I looked at the diamond one last time before putting it in my bag. Honestly I didn't want to pawn it. It was far too beautiful, i wanted to keep it for myself so I can feel like I had something as special and valuable as this.

"Simone are you stupid?" Deon said. I hated this. How serious he gets when it comes to business and robbing houses. It's like he forgets that im human, let alone his fucking girlfriend. 

"What did I do now Deon?"

"I told you to check the fucking next room and then watch the door." He said with his fist balled up. "But here you are, admiring things you're stealing."

"But look," I said my hands shaking going into my bag. "I found a diamond." I showed it to Deon hoping that he would be less angrier.

He widen his eyes with an immediate smile on his face. He walked over to me took the diamond and place it in his bag.

"Simone you're beautiful." He said caressing my cheek. "I'm sorry for saying all of that to you i was just scared for you." He looked at me with his brown eyes. It was almost as if I was drunk everytime i looked into them.

"Simone, I love you I'm sorry." He hugged me and kissing my forehead before walking away. Butterflies filled my stomach as I watched the man I love look beautiful while doing a crime.

This is love.

I seen that he went and checked the room I was supposed to so i went and walked over to the door.

The second I looked my heart dropped. It dropped far and heavy.

Cadince was coming. She was coming and she was coming fast.

"DEON!!" I screamed after him. "SHE'S COMING!" I yelled watching her get closer.

"YOU DONT HAVE A FUCKING GUN FOR NOTHING!" He yelled. I heard things clatter and fall.

I quickly pulled out the gun aiming it at the door waiting for her to walk in.

She came inside and froze in her tracks.

"S-simone what are you doing..?" She said with fear in her eyes. "Put the gun down. Please put it down." She quickly dropped all her items holding her hand up.

"Cadince." I said with a quivering voice.

"Simone please, please I won't call police, I-I will give you anything you want. Do you want money? Please Simone. Don't shoot!"

Watching her plead for her life made my heart hurt and shatter in so many ways. I didn't want to take her life but I didn't exactly lower my gun.

Suddenly I felt Deon presence next to me.

"Simone what are you waiting for? Don't tell me that you're actually dumb enough to believe that she won't call the police! Shoot her!" He yelled.

At this point I'd rather much be in jail for robbery than premeditated murder. I had gotten violent shock as I watched Cadince sly walk towards her door planning her useless escape.

"I'm so fucking sorry.." I said slowly pulling my finger down in the trigger.

"W-wait! PLEASE NO!" She begged.

"SIMONE!"

Deon's voice scared me so much I jumped and ended up pulling the trigger.

The bullet hit her head causing her lifeless body to immediately fall to the ground. I watched it happen with my eyes wide.

I automatically dropped the gun surprised ar its recoil. I was scared, terrified at what I just did. Her body was there, lifeless. Her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes were as dull as a room with no windows.

I tried to form a sentence but I wasn't even able to muster the words. I just fucking killed someone and my boyfriend didn't try to stop me. You'd think if I had the guts to murder someone id talk, but I wasn't. I was scared as hell.

What did I just do?
