Chapter 29: BAB 29

"Don't worry baby, your Saint is stronger than them. I'll come back without a single scratch on my body." Ts He is so self- assured!

"You don't know Saint, they are all 13. They are also trained like you, they are also a mafia boss like you...the strong Saint defeats many." I said worriedly. Saint just smiled at me and kissed my forehead.

"Please Saint... be safe. I can come with you..." I suggested he immediately let go of my hug and looked directly at me.

"The organization doesn't know my face, Saint..." I said. That's right, what I know is that they haven't seen me yet, except maybe the people who want to end up with me already have a hint of what I look like.

"No, baby you can't. I won't allow you." He said firmly.

"I want to make sure you're okay Saint. I want to be with you, I want to see you fighting them..." I insisted, Saint shut his eye hard and looked at me again with his unhidden eyes.

"No, Klea. I must protect you and if I take you with me it's like I am already giving you up with those mafias." I immediately shook my head.

"What your thinking is so wrong Saint. I am not there to fight, I am there to be with you. I just want to see if you are capable of protecting me...because if not... - I paused. His eyebrows shot up because I stopped what I was going to say.

"If not?" He traced. Should I say it? But he might get angry with me and even more, he won't allow me. But...I can't lie! Not in front of Saint!

I sighed. "If not...I'll join the underground school just to help you..." I saw how his eyes went blank, as in no emotion at all. He looked at me with those eyes and immediately made me nervous.

"I won't let you do that." He said quickly.

"But why? Because I don't have the talent or the skills? Am I not capable of protecting myself?" Why is he doing this to me? I am just doing this to protect myself! So that I could help him in some time! But he still doesn't seem to want me to help him...

"You have the skills and the talent of being a mafia, Klea. But I can't allow you to become like that, I can't let you kill." Kill. Is it really bad? But why does he do it? If it's bad then nobody should do that, then nobody has the right to kill.

"Please Klea, please understand your situation. If the mafia bosses find out about you entering underground school then all of my sacrifices just to protect you will be all useless." He has a point.

"But I can't just watch you fighting for my own life! That is my life, I should be the one fighting for it."

"You want to go?" He asked and I nodded.

"Then I'll be the one to teach you."

When night came I still couldn't believe what Saint said earlier in the library. He will teach me? Sister Mary mentioned something to me then that Saint is one of those who teach at the underground school. It is said that he is usually seen in the underground school because he is said to be showing at the last stage.

It's almost 11 PM and I'm getting more nervous. I am now in Saint's room because he told me to go to sleep and not to worry. After all, when I wake up he will be by my side. But I shouldn't be complacent...it's still dangerous for him even though Pierce is with him.

"Sab...I badly want to help Saint but I can't." I immediately frowned at what Savienna said so I went out of Saint's room and closed the door.

"What do you mean Sav?" She sighed and looked around as if she was making sure that no one would hear us.

"Patrick Sudalga planned this all. When Saint arrives in the ring of fire they will rush with weapons." What? That's unfair! As far as Saint knows hand combat will take place.

"How did you know that?" I asked her sharply, one thing I've learned about Savienna is never to trust her words. Never.

"I sneaked in there yesterday, and I heard what they were talking about. Mommy is there too, she also wants Saint to disappear so they can get you and the treasure you hold." Is this the truth? But what if she's just deceiving me?

"I don't believe you, you are Mom's ally and I know that. You can't leave me alone Savienna." I told her firmly, she just frowned at me.

"Trust me when I say this, Hellion will not be back after tonight." That was the last thing he said before he left me and entered my room. Right then I saw Saint walking toward where I was standing.

He is now wearing a long leather coat and gloves, he is holding some briefcases. I looked at him and I saw his different colored beautiful eyes, staring at me like I am a goddess.

When he got close to me, he immediately hugged me tightly. He kissed my forehead multiple times before looking at me again and smiling.

"I promise I will be back. And I'll bring you your favorite food." He said with a smile. I was reassured by what Saint said, he will be back. He will.

"Saint...please be safe.." I said softly enough for him to hear. He nodded at me and caressed my face gently.

"I will come back for you, my love." He assured me again. I nodded to him, and at the same time, my tears fell, I cried so hard like there was no tomorrow and Saint was just there to comfort me.

I was still crying and I felt Saint lifting my face. And I already know what will happen next, he assured his promise with his kiss. He kissed me full of love.

I heard his briefcase fall and He grabbed both of my shoulders and deepened the kiss. When we separated we were catching our breath, but Saint stayed his forehead on my forehead.

"When I come back please welcome me with your loving arms.." He said and winked at me. I just laughed at what he said. He pinched my nose and chuckled.

Saint was separated from me when he heard the sound of a chopper. The chopper will pick him up?

"Come with me on the rooftop, I want to see your face before I leave." I nodded at what Saint said and followed his walk towards the rooftop.

When we got to the rooftop, the cold air greeted me. The wind that was being released by the chopper that was in front of us went along.

Saint walked closer to the chopper and I felt the heat on both sides of my eyes again. Why am I being so emotional? Saint will come back for sure why am I crying?

"Baby?" He stopped.

"Hmm?"

"When I turn around I want to see your smile, I don't want to see you crying." I immediately wiped my tears because of what Saint said.

And everything seemed to be in slow motion when he turned to me, I showed my very best smile at him and he smiled at me.

"I love you, Sabrina. I will come back, I promise." That was the last thing he said before he got into the chopper and flew into the air.

I love you too, Saint... And I will wait for you.
