Chapter 410 - Who are you?
Enrick is utterly shocked by what he saw. Hope, his innocent and sweet Hope shot someone...unbelievable!!
"Rick, are you done goggling me. We are in middle of chaos" she whispered and shook his hand.
GODDAMMIT!! Why is he sooo distracted.
Quickly regaining his senses, he took the other gun from his pocket and looked at Hope.
As both of them realized someone’s presence closer to them, she told him something through sign language. He is flabbergasted again, this specific language is only used in military. How come she is very well aware of it...
The next ten minutes were the best moment of his life. He couldn’t help but get mesmerized by this vixen shade of her.
He noticed that she is good in hand to hand combat and many other martial arts. She is good in handling other weapons and is also good in fighting according to her surroundings.
She might not be as good as Jean and Iris but she is almost on a par with his normal team(other teams apart from Elite team).
After ten minutes the reinforcement arrived and the couple went back to his mansion rather than their condo. It is not safe till this problem is solved.
He expected Hope to get afraid, but her reaction was quite opposite to it. She enjoyed this fun..
He is glad that someone tried to attack them, if isn’t for this reason he might have not seen this side of her. After now, there is no need to fear of loosing her. She is strong enough to protect herself but addition to this he will train her personally and have his other team follow her.
The organization has just finished training some outstanding teams. He will select a best team for her..
...
After freshening up, Rick and Hope sat down in the living room. His plan to cook her favorite food and have some quality time with her just got disrupted by this attack.
However he felt as if something heavy has been lifted off from his shoulder.
Shifting near to Hope he hugged her. It felt more like he is comforting her rather than being romantic. Hope had a slight blush as she leaned on to his shoulder. They stayed quite for a while savoring the warmness blossoming in between them.
"How?" he asked her curiously yet softly. His fingers combed her hair while his lips skimmed on crown of her head.
"I have been in military for one year. My dad wanted me to study business but I insisted on medical field. So he has set some conditions for me before I joined my medicine. One of that condition is to learn self defense and combat. Along with this I was also asked to join military for one year" Hope explained.
Her parents wanted her to be independent in every aspect. If it is family business they would have protected her with their surname and status tagged to her. But however she opted to have normal and low key life. So they have trained her with everything before letting her expose to this dark world.
"Why didn’t you tell me about this, Hope. You use to nag so much but you didn’t even talk about this at least once. If I would have known about this side of yours, we might have been a couple by now" Rick couldn’t help but pout.
Hope stared at him with wide eyes. Did he just POUT that too in such a adorable way. She wanted to kiss that lips but restrained herself.
’Don’t get seduced by him Hope. Don’t’
chanting this she averted her erratic thoughts.
"Is this why you were afraid back then? That I will be in danger" she asked and Rick nodded.
"Rick. Who are those people?" Hope asked. Her voice is certainly the strong one without any traces of fear or nervousness.
Rick sighed and told her all his story, starting with how council formed till how dangerous his life is now. He wanted to let her decide....if she feel suffocated or insecure he will let her go.
But he will forever live with this memories of her. Love can only happen once...this is what he believes.
But however totally opposite to his prediction she hugged him tighter and pecked his lips. "I will be always there with you. Don’t worry about me...I will strengthen myself even more so I can stand with you when the war starts. Forever Rick" with this their both clashed their lips with each other.
In middle of their kissing session Rick asked her. "How about your blind date?" she bragged so much about it.
"Haha....I fooled you. I never said it is ’my’ date. That was my cousin and best friend’s so I am the mediator" Hope laughed.
"Such a tease...." Rick said and pinned her down. Hope squealed.
"Hope, didn’t you challenge me if I am really romantic or not. Let’s me demonstrate it" he huskily said.
Hope closed her eyes in anticipation, Rick smirked while inching closer to her taking his sweet time. Just when he is about to kiss the crook of her neck for the very first time.
Door bell rang...
.....
