Chapter 18

Arlington POV

"Hey,"

"Hey," she kept her forehead on the door, not meeting my gaze,

"Everything's ok?"

"Yeah, it's just this damn stupid door,"

"You're fighting with the door," I chuckled lowly "Something like that," she laughed, turning around pressing her back against it,

"You look tired,"

"I have been training for three months and you noticing that now," she fake laugh, but I knew better, she was making it known that she is pissed,

"I didn't want to bother you,"

"Since when do you care being a bother to anyone, you were always a nuisance Arlington,"

"I feel offended," I folded my arms, a smile stretched across my face, ear to ear,

"You should be," she finally met my stare, but shyly looked away,

She was one of the best fighters, I honestly underestimate her, I never thought she would be the type to be involved in a confrontation, much less in a squabble... The bone-breaking types. Miguel tells me she's quick on her, better with knives and pushes daggers than she is with a gun, and I have seen it for my self too, she is like a nine out of ten when it comes on to shooting, combat skills is great too, the ultimate killer.

"Tomorrow is the big day huh?"

"Yeah,"

"Excited?"

"Am I excited for my first assignment, hell yeah? I hope it isn't something easy... Like a drop-off... I want to beat up a guy or two,"

Oh no, I guess Miguel didn't tell her, she thinks she going to fight, like a test, she doesn't know that tomorrow most of the new friends she made won't make it back, tomorrow is her first mission, and I know it knows it will end in a blood bath,

Pulling my firearm from my waist, pointing it towards her. Pushing the muzzle of the gun upwards, she glides back the slide, catching the clip in her hand, and before I could say anything I could feel the tip of the dagger piercing through the skin at my neck,

"Miguel taught you well, disabled my gun in three seconds,"

"Miguel didn't teach me that," she pulled her hand away from my neck, "You did,"

"What— what are you..." The day in the garden, when she held a gun to my face,

"You're a quick learner Paige, good luck tomorrow,"  I turned to retreat into my room,

"Why don't you like me,"

"Excuse me,"

"Miguel... I rejected Miguel because of you, and he called me Priscilla 2.0... So I want to know, why haven't you made your move yet?"

"Ignore Miguel, he is just an idiot... And — I like you, I do... But I..." I glanced up at her, fuck it.

Pulling her in, I crashed my lips onto hers, bracing her against her room door, twisting the knob, we stumbled into the room, striping out of our clothes, "Wait... Wait," she mumbled, "I need to tell you something,"

Pulling away I stared into her eyes, my palms cupping her face,

"What... What is it?"

"I— I am," she cleared her throat, shifting uncomfortably, "I am still a virgin,"

"You and Miguel... You guys never..."

"No,"

Lowering her on the bed, I climbed between her legs, meeting her lips with slow kisses, caressing her breast, I felt my manhood twitching, it was hard as a rock and I needed her. Pulling away from our kiss, I glided my thumb across her forehead, swallowing hard,

"What's wrong... Was it something I did—"

"No... God no, this perfect, but... It's going to hurt... Just for a little bit, ok?"

"Ok," she whispered, nodding vigorously

Push the tip of my cock at her entrance, she let out a loud gasp, sinking her nails into my back. The further I went, was the louder her moans grew,

"Arlington," she moaned I could tell it was starting to feel good, so I increased the strokes, groaning into her neck when I felt how tight she is,

"Fuck," I moaned, "You're so fucking good you know that," I crashed my lips onto hers,

"I am close," I moaned with parted lips, I couldn't describe the feeling but it felt good, better than anything I have ever felt, every woman before her didn't even... I don't know, they just weren't her. Feeling my cock pulsating, I pulled out, lying beside her,

"That was fantastic," she threw her arm over my torso,

"Listen— I..."

"I know... It's just sex, it ok,"

"No... That's not what I was going to say, I am going to visit my sister tomorrow, so I won't be here when you wake up, prepping for your mission... Good luck and I need you to come back... To me,"

"Ok, I will... I promise,"

"Now go to bed, we both will be having a long-ass day,"

In the morning I rolled out of her bed, showered in her bathroom, and she still was sleeping when I finished, she deserves her either way, she really does. Getting dressed, I headed out, hopping into the car,

"I am going into town, down by the store," I instructed my driver.

Arriving there I noticed something strange, it was closed,

"Lori..." I caller out pushing the door, open, but I heard nothing,

"Lori... You in here—"

Before I could finish my sentence, someone hit me in the back, knocking me out cold.

A few hours later

Groaning lowly, the back of my head began to hurt, I wasn't sure if it's from a concussion or a wound. As I opened my eyes I began to scan the room I was in, it looked familiar. Trying to move I now realized I was tied to a chair,

"What the..."

"Hello Arlington," I heard his voice, emerging from the dark,

Sebastian.

"Why am I here... What's is this?"

"I tried with you Arlington I did... I always wanted what's best for you,"

"You killed my mother... And where is Lorraine? I swear if you hurt..."

"Relax... Lorraine is fine, she is resting,"

"And Ken?" I inquired about my driver,

"All you had to do what get rid of the girl..."

"Leave Paige out of this,"

"Oh..." I heard another voice echoed, walking towards us from out of the darkness,

"I thought she was dead,"

"You," I grunted through clenched teeth when I saw who it was,

"Hello to you too... Arlington Crown."
