Chapter 11: PERMISSION

That night, my heart was beating so fast I couldn't sleep. So, I sneaked out of the house and ambushed Hudson in his sleep.

Kidding aside, I ran down and went to the fitness room that I saw while roaming earlier and trained my body so I would forget that feeling earlier.

That's not me! That's probably Kamila reacting! That's right! I'm still a straight man!

I continued working out until I was satisfied, too tired that I passed out cold inside the gym.

I only woke up after feeling a few taps on my cheeks. And when I opened my eyes, I saw that hideous face of Isaac that I almost murdered his face.

Good thing he dodged nicely. Anyway since I woke up late he suggested eating out so I just went with everything since I didn't really wanna talk to him.

This must be his way to tame me and I'm not going to fall for it again! I was bathing in the tub when I heard the rustling of leaves, my left eye opened and saw five men lurking out of the house.

Seriously? At this hour? While I'm having my bath?

I didn't wanna move an inch since I trained hard last night, so I called Hudson to take care of it for me.

"This early?" I know right?

"Just go with it, I'm exhausted."

"Oh! What made Aizen so exhausted last night? You didn't do what I was thinking right? HAHAHA!" I can see Hudson's cheeky smile from here Tsk.

"Shut up birdbrain! It's not what you think!" I yelled and ended the call.

After that call, I heard a few knocks and Isaac's voice asking if everything was alright.

When I told him it was fine he didn't ask anything further but a few seconds later I heard shreds of glass breaking.

So, I had to pop out of the bath and look at what happened. And there I found Isaac and Hudson brawling outside, the perpetrators were also taken care of.

"Are you guys kids? What are you doing?"

"Step out of my property now Hudson," Isaac said without a sign of emotion.

"She's the one who called me. Why am I going to follow you?" Hudson asked with a hint of taunting.

Tch. This man and his games, he's making him mad again.

Isaac looked at me as if asking if it was true so I just pointed out the men sleeping on the lawn.

Isaac clicked his tongue and removed his coat, covering me with them before leaving us for a phone call.

A few minutes later, men from the Caliber mafia came and disposed of the bodies. Those three kids are here too. Forgot about them.

"Good morning Lady Kamila!"

Isaac's brow furrowed and crossed his arms. "Stop looking at her with those eyes," he said as if lecturing his kids.

Isaac tossed his gaze to me afterward, "You, get dressed. Apresúrate!"

Geez! I didn't even understand what he was saying but it sounded like he was cursing at me.

As he said, I dressed up. I found them lined up in the living room when I walked down. That's a sight you won't get to see every day.

When Isaac saw me going down he quickly stood up and said, "Let's go."

There were three cars outside, one for us, one for those kids and the other one is probably Hudson's.

We're only eating out and we have this tight security, rich people really had it rough.

Anyway, after that breakfast Isaac had to go somewhere so he took me home and brought the 3 eggnogs along with him.

I was bored so an idea popped up in my mind and called Hudson.

"You do realize you're calling me more often than your husband right? He's going to get jealous again,"

"Oh, shut up! Take me to the headquarters! I need to talk to Keegan,"

"Keegan? Why?"

"Shut up and just do what I say, idiot before that lunatic Isaac comes home."

Hudson came not a few minutes later. Arriving at headquarters, Keegan welcomed me to his office and the look on his face told me he already knew why I was there.

"I'm not allowing you without your husband's permission Missy,"

"B-But!"

Keegan cut me off and said, "Do you want an all-out fight between two organizations? Of course, we don't right?"

"But if you can just keep it a secret, then I—"

"You don't know your husband do you? I'm sure he already knew you came here. And is raging with anger to rescue you thinking we kidnapped you,"

What?! Caliber Mafia's intelligence team is more advanced than ours? How could that be?

And just like he said, the alarm started ringing signaling everyone that someone dangerous broke in.

I looked at Keegan and his face told me that his option was the only way for me to join this organization again.

Before I could even utter a word, they had already broken the door and were on their way in.

"Are we taking this the hard way, Keegan?" Isaac asked calmly but deadlyly.

But Keegan raised his hands in surrender and pointed at me.

"What’s happening here? He didn't kidnap you?" Logan asked so I shook my head.

"Then why are you with him AGAIN," Isaac asked firmly.

I looked at Keegan but he only gave me a nod. SIGH.

"I wanna be an assassin,"

"Why,"

What does he mean why?! Because I— Because...

Why DO I want to be an assassin again? To hunt for the person who killed me. No, I can still do that even if I'm not an assassin.

I was already given another chance to change my life and here I am going back to my old ways.

I don't have to kill to feed my gambling parents anymore. So why?

Why do I want this so much?

And when I thought of an answer, I told them.

"I want to...
