"What can you do for me Mr.Husband?" Myra went closer to Felix, murmured seductively in his eyes. Her hot breath fanned on his lips, his eyes were blindfolded. "Madam, my..my job is to protect you, as I am your bodyguard," he answered slowly, and trying to turn his face away. She slapped on his face and pulled his hair back. Felix Marshalls was a new hired bodyguard of Myra and contracted husband. She hated him for marrying her, but what will happen when he will become her Saviour? Will she fall in love with the bodyguard Son in law?
She was panting as she ran down the bushy tracks, her clothes torn, her breath labored by pants, and her body filled with sweat, her feet ached from the stones and thorns that pricked and brushed her feet but she didn't stop. She couldn't stop right now. They were right behind her. She wasn't yet safe, she had just escaped from captivity and she was being hunted down by men with arms and dogs alike.
But she was reaching her limit, she couldn't run anymore as her legs gave out and she fell rolling down the road when she saw two men jump out and grabbed her right.
"Nooo!" She screamed loud as she woke up panting for breath. Just then the door opened as her mum and a few bodyguards ran into the room alarmed. The bodyguards quickly did a quick survey and saw that no intruder had entered so it wasn't an external case. Her mother on the other hand sat beside her holding her as she held her tight and patted her shoulders, trying to confront her.
"Calm down, Myra. It is just a nightmare okay? I am right here. Everything will be alright. You were rescued remember?" She said shushing her daughter as she felt her trembling in her arms and she shook her head.
This wasn't the first time that Myra had gotten kidnapped because her mother was a famous businesswoman and her stepfather was a mafia. It had left her jumpy and scared which ended up in having many nightmares but no matter the therapy she got, she never truly healed.
"It was so real mother. I thought they got me. I can still smell their stench on my face, and the evil smile they gave me. Mother, it was so horrible. I was so scared. If you and the policemen hadn't gotten there, they would have killed me. I was weak and helpless and they taunted me with it. I am just a nobody like they said." Myra said sobbing her eyes out as her mother Lady Janet glanced at the bodyguards who were still immobile waiting for her command. She jerked her head towards the door and they quickly understood that they weren't needed so they nodded their heads and left the room leaving mother and daughter behind.
As soon as the door closed, Janet pulled her away from her body and looked at her face.
"Listen to me, dear. You are a nobody. You are my daughter. And you are precious to me. You know that I will do anything for you. So never think you are the problem. It is I that should be apologizing. Because of mine and your stepfather's business, you have always been on constant watch by bad people who want to use you and get to us." She said as Myra cleaned her face and kept quiet.
"I believe I know what to do now. Since things have come to this and I can't always guarantee your safety. I have decided to get you a permanent bodyguard. One that will be with you 24/7 anywhere you go." She said finally dropping the bomb Myra pushed her mother away gently and stood up walking towards the makeup table as she shook her head.
"No, I don't agree with this. You know how I feel about bodyguards. I do not need one, mum please do not get one for me. I would rather learn self-defense. I will take better care of myself that way. " She said trying to reason with her mother but her mind was made up.
"You know why I want you to get a bodyguard. I would not be at peace if I do not get you one. I worry too much about you, you are my only child. Please I know your last bodyguard did some things to you when you are still a child but that was over 20 years ago and things are different now. I will get one that won't do such nasty things to you. You can count on me." She said as Myra sighed.
She didn't want one get her mother was insisting that she needed one. Usually, she would back down but considering how the house was always on tension, she knees that there was more to it than what her mother was telling her.
"Mum is anything going on between you and stepfather? What is happening?" She said instead as her mum raked a hand through her head and sighed,
"I guess you have noticed that your stepfather and I haven't been seeing eye to eye lately. Anyways I will tell you....there is no need to keep it a secret from you. You need to know how grave this is. Your stepfather and I have been planning on divorcing. We are no longer happy with each other since we always argue and can't seem to get to a compromise. So I fear people would use this to get to me now they find out that the family is coming apart, all the more reason you need a bodyguard."
Myra looked at her mother and sighed. She knew her mother was scared that was why she was behaving like this but she didn't also want one. There was no need to argue with her anymore. Besides, it was night and they were both tensed. It would be a lot better if they spoke again about this issue on another day.
"Mother, could we leave this topic to another day? It is late and I don't want to keep you up. I want to bathe again and try sleeping. That would help me this time around." She said with a smile as her mother nodded her head.
"Okay princess, you are right. It is late. Try and get some sleep, I will be in my room if you need me. Good night Myra." she said as she headed for the door.
"Good night mother," Myra answered as the door closed behind her and she exhaled.
"I'm not yours, Alexander," she whispered but her voice trembled as his lips nearly touched her lips, the gap between them filled with tension. "You say that," he whispered softly, his breath fanning her lips, "but your body begs to differ." "Say that you don't want this," he whispered in a low growl right before he pressed his lips against hers. 'If you tell me I will stop.'
