Very slowly she looked up with narrowed eyes crowned with dissatisfaction.

I don't know why but she looks close to breaking apart. As if I pushed her buttons.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAYWCKYXjMZm
Her lips quiver but she didn't say anything until she was head to nose with me. Damn close. Her scent is better than chicken if we're talking about other plate to devour. She sagged with a heavy sigh, "Since I made too much, nothing should go to waste." She wants to reason with me the logical way. But need her true emotions. She's more than that to me. "Why?" I held her hands, she's still hiding, A simple touch can shatter the wall, "These men protect me how I treat my patients." She sniffed. "When I was alone in the car with them.."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAjnal7zQChl
What!??
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqqrgjHsdqv
"Did they do something to you?" She scoffed. "No!" Like stating impossibility, she dragged the word.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAPbHTaarzhp
I relaxed. Otherwise, There'd be one more death by my hands.
290Please respect copyright.PENANARJD4dPqQla
".. Everyone was ready to sacrifice themselves for me. Some even did, but no-one said a word to me..."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAL3JyRBJpLz
I cut in, Correcting her "It's because you're my Woman. You're off limits. It's their Job you're thinking too much." It aghast her. But this is the truth. She's insecure an nearly empty, I support her, Always. She doesn't need to look around.

"Callen, they didn't even look like they'd reply me. I want your people to accept me. Right now, I'm only attracting danger, I'm an encumbrance to you all!" Devastated she said. Her head hung in shame. She is getting it all wrong. I cup her face in both my hands and lift up her head, I need her to look at sincere mine.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAY6tnfgrOmJ
"Their duty is to protect you. Because I say so. None other matter should be your concern." She is at a loss of words, I continued. Until she understands..
290Please respect copyright.PENANAUidSkCWMQV
"They are trained for this, have been through this, working for me only for this Purpose! Protect us with their lives."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAowogr038E8
"But I'm receiving hostility! Not Respect! 'I' have to repay what 'I' receive." She reasoned yet again.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAy1Slkz0Li3
"Keep loving me and I'll give you all the respect in world." I gave her the solution. It's pretty simple.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAUlilypyapl
She broke away. I pursued her, holding her by her arm, I kept her steady and attentive only to me.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAm6UkfKkukV
"You don't understand, this is Mafia. Attacks like this happen often. Even without you. You're not the cause of this. Stop blaming yourself." She grew numb. All along she's blaming herself for the deaths she saw.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAB1YCCH2tP9
It's her first time experiencing this kind of pain. It has gotten to her.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA3FkrRY9Qyi
I pulled her close to me. Her heart to sync with mine, her ear pressed to my chest.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAKQ2ndEmd3J
"Calm down, Zenovia. It's going to be okay."
290Please respect copyright.PENANA1YVKqfe3Nz
"Do whatever you want. But it should stay as formal as it can be."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAtEd1c6NacA
I heard a knock and my work flooded back to my brain. She pulled away. I hurried to the door.
290Please respect copyright.PENANARUeHWJ5epY
"I suggest you keep to yourself to avoid trouble for them." Before I see myself off I warned her, just in case.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAoodSEz9ACp
"Callen I just want to be of use, and help anyway I can." I heard her, before disappearing with Claude.
**
No time to start when we reach the office and sit. I motioned him to start speaking. Putting on the shirt Claude made available right on spot.
"Their warehouses are found. Our spices are on location and we have abducted their grandchildren. Each one of them."
290Please respect copyright.PENANA6KtPvISj3L
"Where are they kept?" Very good. This way, we have their major weakness in our hands.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAtZP8mOtx6Y
"Here, in the Basement. Sir" In the dark. Just kept alive.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAjromjXwsAk
"Why didn't you call me! I was down for 14 fuckin' hours!" I flared remembering he could have informed these details much before.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAia8R7cXEX7
"Ma'am said it's your order, Not to disturb you." He staggered. Oh, my darling cares about me. I'll let it slide.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAfW2uMHrOCE
"How did you know I was up Now!??" He did appeared at the right time. Just when we went quiet.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAvabq6v0Na3
"You both were bickering like old couples. I couldn't help stick my ear for gossip sake." He snikered
290Please respect copyright.PENANAm3TgoohMnT
Stopping, I glared at him. Though going back to that, so cute she was.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAg1cNWrnyEW
Sad, happy, lost, hurt, I love all about her, since it's her. I'll go to any extent to keep her close to me.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA3wrBKtxibO
"I'm sorry sir. It won't happen again." Panicking he apologized.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAmkJ0kcCQ2M
In the office, I issued out orders to blast four of their major territories. Everything was carried out in ruckus to make up for the time we lost.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAJYyJH93yTj
"Transfer Zenovia to the main house. It's safe to head back. In a few days she'll be asking to join the hospital back. It'll be convenient from there." The old guy I trust for years received the order.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAk58F5jz3hf
She's going to ask little by little to return to her old life. Trying to reach whatever her life offered, what she had, before the chaos.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAQHdGCPsOJv
I just have to be prepared to agree to her,
290Please respect copyright.PENANAYhD70WJgKE
"Yes Sir." Out he went.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA6HAvNbgDIe
Men keep coming in and out obliging me.
290Please respect copyright.PENANADbeu1rXCjm
"About the dog, sir, we have it admitted. Injuries aren't deep. It'll recover in a week's time." He was found in one of Hugo's hotel room, probably from where my brothers picked up zenovia from. Luckily the dog was spared. Investigation was over quick. Silver's health had been bugging me since I found him lifeless on the floor, in the corner.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAOu3OxxuQy6
"Great. I'll visit him tomorrow." A smile crept up my solemn face, she'll first try searching for him herself, she won't find him, disappointed she'll request me. Happily I'll grant her wish.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAHUxMEhJjqV
"Yes, Sir."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAMPv4HipF5s
The shirt was brought and I didn't have the luxury to eat together with my beloved but I can atleast eat what she made with so much love, She sent via Glenn.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqAXnXmK7lJ
I don't like the fact she might have interacted with him and other in the process. I can only sit back and sooth myself from the fact that she has me in her heart.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqOVQI51kTj
Only me.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAwO57NECFDC
I noticed agitation in Parker's features, another one of my close trusted men.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA50j4uejT5a
"What is it, Parker?" Rather deep I ask, He straighten in alert. "Sir, About the House."
290Please respect copyright.PENANAy33zw4l3ld
Zenovia's house I instructed to be rebuilt just the way it was before. "What about the house?" I grew edgy. Damage done shouldn't hurt my girl. "Permission.." he quieted but disappointment was caused. "I'll have zinovia's signature" though it'll be hard. By any means, that isn't the problem. Paperwork is secondary. "Has the construction started or not?" A no will do no good. "Yes, sir."
290Please respect copyright.PENANABuqTcob6Bv
Good. He's saved.
