She waited and waited until it was past time to leave. She didn’t want to, she thought as she snuggled right next to him. She loved him, with all her heart. But what would happen if he found out who she really was? A thief. A spy. What would he think of her?
So she gathered her clothes and crept out of the bedroom, not making even a sound. She pulled her shirt over her head, and a tear crept to her eye. Why did she even fall in love with him? She knew the risks. She got that call at midnight from her informant, and knew she’d made the biggest mistake of her life.
This person she fell in love with, was the one person she should have avoided at all costs. But she couldn’t help it. She couldn’t help watching him through the binoculars and seeing how caring he was to his family. She couldn’t help watching and seeing him be a chivalrous man and wanted that one thing in her life that no one had ever given her. So she tried the tainted goods. She knew what he was, but still she was drawn to him. And now she had to kill him.
She couldn’t bring herself to do it. She just couldn’t. So she decided that it was best to get out and let him be somebody else’s problem. She’d start her life over in another city in another country. She’d done this before, and she’ll do it again. Thing is, though… all she wanted was him, gangster and all.
