Evangeline's POV
"Let me take care of your wounds please..huh?", Richard pleaded nth time.
We were sitting in my couch and me kindly asking him to get out of my place.
I want to be alone.
"Richard leave before I knock you down and throw you on road", calmly I told him my real thoughts.
It would happen any second from now.
A smile took over his face.
"Of course..it's easy for you to knock me than arguing", he stared at my eyes.
I laughed hearing him.
Whenever Richard disobeys me in the mission I'll knock down him for hours and making him stay out of the mission.
He is a nut job whenever his anger took over him.
He would love to question my decisions because he don't want me to get hurt.
He always want me to be safe when I'm the senior of our squad.
"It's reward for disobeying your senior orders and making them go crazy", I smiled remembering the old times.
"Well it would be better if the senior learned about the term self-caring", he scoffed mocking me.
I catched his ear and twisted it fastly.
"Evan..geline.... Car..Ter.. leave my ears ..ahhh", he screamed in pain.
"Don't you remember the rules?..Tell me what are those?", I twisted his ear more.
"1.Don't disobey your senior.
2. Don't question your senior orders.
3. Protect yourself from injuries.
4. Saving yourself comes first", he told like a kid.
"And 5. Do not fall in love with your senior", I remembered fifth rule for him.
"No..it's Do not fall in love with your senior unless she is crazy", he smiled cheekily showing his dimples at me.
Have I told you guys that Richard is a year younger than me?
If not..he is younger than me a year.
He stood up raising his hands in surrender seeing me pointing gun at him.
"I apologize Evangeline Carter..", he smiled.
His smile is making me smile too.
Putting a hard face.. I made him walk out of my door by walking towards him..while him walking back in fear.
He knows I would pull the trigger if he provoke me.
"Good Night Richard", when he walked out of the door unknowingly, I shut the door in his face.
"You tricked me Evangeline.. at least take care of your wounds first..I'll be grateful to you if you take care of yourself", his muffled voice made a smile into my face.
"Sure..I will..now leave me alone", I shouted and went to my bedroom.
Taking a seat in my bed I treated my wound.
Thousands of curse left my mouth while taking out the bullet.
After treating it properly..I put on a bandage.
Staring into window I saw stars winking brightly at me in night.
Taking a liquor bottle I went to my terrace.
Sitting in the open bench I envied the peace I got from this wild silence of night.
"Dad..do you hear me?", I started talking to the brightest star watching me from the sky.
"I'm doing good..dad..And I'm sure you are enjoying your romantic long time vacation with mom..", taking a gulp I teased my dad who is watching me from heavens.
A tear escaped my left eye. My throat tightened with emotions that I'm trying to control.
"I took care of your gang too..dad..don't worry..I'll do my best to our people", I smiled at the thought how he would worry about his gang.
If Carter Industry is his mind..then Shadow is his heart.
"I miss you dad", a sob escaped my mouth.
"If not for Sophie and her family I would have gone crazy dad", I couldn't control my tears.
My heart ached missing my dad. An uncontrollable pain took over my chest.
I felt my heart squeeze in tightness. Gulping the liquid I controlled my tears.
This ache..this loneliness..
"I'm sorry dad..I couldn't help myself missing you and him", I complained.
"I want to be strong...I want to be bold..I want to be happy..yet I'm not willing to try...", I told the truth.
A breeze washed over my body.
I felt like my father is trying to comfort me.
"It's all going to be okay sweetheart..I'm right next to you all the time Eva...I love you my daughter", I remembered his words whenever he comforts me when I'm down.
That night I broke down entirely in the floor weeping for my father's presence.
I miss him. I miss him badly.
My phone rang.
Attending the call I stayed silent not wanting to worry Sophie.
"Eva..come to base...I got information from the guy", she informed me.
"I'll be there", I told and ran to my room.
When I'm about to take off my pajama..I sensed a presence.
A shiver took over my spine. The familiar feeling.
"Why are you here Alexander?", I asked not turning my back.
I felt weak to face him. After seeing him with Melanie I don't want to have any hopes. The least I had has vanished into air.
Taking my gun and loading it... I kept in bed.. and took out my dress to change.
"Where is your little boyfriend?", His voice were like a venom to my ears.
That made me anger.
"He left. If that's all..I kindly ask you to leave my premises Mr.Knight", I told gritting my teeth.
Within seconds he is infront of me.
"Year-End party of Knights is day after tomorrow. I'm inviting boss lady and her members to attend", he told staring at me yet no emotion in his face.
"Shadows will attend the party. Now you may leave", looking into his eyes I dismissed him.
Before he could say anything I left the room as my heart couldn't stay his sight.
I hate you Alexander.
I hate you...I hate you...
How could you move on from me easily? Are you serious about our break up?
I wish I can move on like you..but the love for you in my heart is uncontrollable.
Going to base Sophie approached me.
"The deal has finished. And the guy we caught..he gave a crucial information", she told looking sad and pale.
"What is it?", I asked her to continue.
"Knights ordered them to kill us", she finished.
"Have you confirmed it?", I croaked.
She showed the badge that only the leader of Knight could give in order to kill someone.
Alexander....sent killers to kill me..
It can't be..No..it's ridiculous. It can't be..
Please..
It's Melanie.
Last time only I had access to his office. Now It's turn of Melanie.
How could he?
Congratulations Alexander. You shattered the whole of me today.
I wish there might be misunderstanding.
I wish.. Alexander could explain it to me.
I wish..I could be strong as like you!
