HOLLY POV
Blade and I have a nice and sweet lunch together. He came home from work early telling me,
"Christian said he didn't need me today so he allowed me to come home early" Blade sweetly spoke as he kissed my cheek.
"Really? So a mafia boss doesn't need his second-hand man?" I questioned with disbelief.
"You don't believe me?" Blade questions as he wraps his arms around my waist bringing our chests inches apart.
"As a matter of fact, no. Blade, you can't just skip work" I cross my arms over my chest as I take a step back from his warm embrace.
"Do you not want me here?" He copies my movement as he crosses his arms over his chest in a stubborn act.
"I never said that Blade, I just don't want you to get fired or worse. Christian is a scary man and I know he won't take this skipping work lightly. I just... I don't want you to lose this because of me" I confess as I direct my eyes towards the floor.
"Holly, you don't have to worry about me, I can take care of myself" Blade grabs my arm and directs me back to his warm embrace.
"I just don't want you to get hurt. Believe me, I want you here with me 24/7 but... but I don't want you to get killed or fired. And people talk Blade. People might suspect something has changed with you" I confess again as I place my chin on his hard chest as I look up into his eyes.
"I don't care what others say-"
"Blade, listen to yourself, people will start talking and then they will get suspicious and start lurking around, meaning they will find us and rumours will be spread and... and... and Elijah might find me," I spoke as my overall mood has changed from anger to sadness. I know Blade doesn't like me talking about Elijah but it was bound to happen sometime.
"Don't ever speak of his name again. Do I make myself clear, Holly?" Blade tightens his grip around me as the mere thought of Elijah brings awful memories back.
I nod my head slowly as my voice might fail me.
"Princess, people won't find out about us until we want them to. In the meantime, I promise I won't skip any more work" He moves his pinky in front of my face. I move my pinky and connect our pinkies into a puzzle-like connection.
"Promise?" I pout as I give him my best puppy dog eyes.
"I promise" He puffs out his chest and kisses my soft lips. This kiss is slow and passionate, showing me he truly promises. His warm lips dance across mine as his tongue licks the outside of my bottom lip. I smile into the kiss, not allowing him access. He grunts but doesn't push it as our kiss breaks away. I catch my breath along with him as we break away from the kiss.
Blade grabs a hold of my hand as he directs us to the living room. I have stayed in this living room for most of the week, whether it be reading, sleeping, or watching TV, it is by far my most favourite room. The decorations are to die for and the fireplace ties the whole room together.
Blade finally releases my hand as he sits down on the brown leather chair on the right of the fireplace. I tilt my head in confusion as Blade's eyes rack down my body as he licks his lips. A small blush brushes across my face as I direct my gaze to the carpet below me.
"Come here," Blade instructs me.
"Mmm, will I get a prize for listening to you?" I question in a teasing tone.
"Just come here you little brat" Blade rolls his eyes.
"Damn, is Bladie getting impatient?" I tease.
"Shut up" Blade shakes his head as his eyes slowly move from the top of my body to my toes, slowing down as they get to my chest and legs. Perv!
"Fine fine" I cave as I make my way to the chair beside him.
Before I could sit on the warm, soft couch, Blade grabs my waist and brings me down on his lap. I let out a squeak at the sudden movement but soon calmed down as Blade took a strand of my hair in his fingers allowing his fingers to get lost in them.
I readjust myself on his lap so I am seated sideways and I circle my arms around his neck. His body is so warm that my body immediately relaxes, my head is in a new euphoric state as his fingers play with a strand of my hair.
"So how are you liking Greece?" Blade questions as I can feel the vibration of his voice quivers through my body.
"Good, I want to explore more of it," I confess as I play with a button on his dress shirt. I unbutton the top two buttons allowing his chest to be exposed. I play with the second loose button, twirling and pulling at it softly.
"I know Holly, but you can't leave this house for a little while, we don't want that news to travel to Elijah" Blade releases my hair as starts to slowly rub up and down my spine
"Yeah, I just want to see those cool white houses with the amazing view of the blue ocean, you know... have you seen those views of Greece?" I said as I locked eyes with him.
"Yes, yes I have seen those photos. I have also been there. It is the city of Santorini, I promise I will take you there on our official first date" Blade winked as a small smirk grew on his perfect face.
"First date, does that mean we might have a second date?" I tilt my head as I lick my soft, pink, lips.
"We will have a second, third, fourth, fifth-" I stopped his rambling as I pressed my lips on his warm soft lips.
Our kiss was cut short as a loud bang echoed throughout the mansion. A second smaller bang echoed as I assumed the front door hit the ground.
Blade's arm tightens around me as he stands up from the cold leather chair. While I am still cradled into his arms, he places me back on the chair making sure his body is between me and the intruder. Blade's hands move across his body looking for something.
"Shit" He cursed under his breath as his attention was drawn to his gun that laid in the kitchen counter.
I hear footsteps echo throughout the house. There are more than several different footsteps, I estimate 5. They are quick and demanding footsteps as they explore different rooms. My heartbeat quickens as the footsteps speed up. Shit, we are dead.
Blade can sense my uneasiness and nervousness as his calm face turns towards me. His body moves in front of mine as his hand reaches in front of my face and wipes away the lone tear which I didn't feel escape. His warm hand made my rigged body calm but my heartbeat sped up. My breathing becomes uneasy and quick as the footsteps grow louder and louder until they stop. I can sense an overpowering presence but Blade's huge body blocks my view, but I am not complaining, because all I want is Blade and me to be safe.
"Get. Away. From. Her" A familiar voice spoke. His voice is deeper than I remember but a weird feeling in my stomach escapes when hearing his voice, it feels like my body is doing flips and butterflies are fluttering through my stomach.
"It will be ok," Blade whispers as he whips another tear that runs down my cheek. My cheeks are a soft pink shade as more tears run down my cheek but I control it. I smile at Blade showing him I'm not afraid as my cheeks are now dry.
He found me. How? How could he find me? Is this just a game of cat and mouse with him? Will he always find me? What will he do to me now that he has found me? I am so screwed.
