Treachery Affair

Harley Quinn

I stand in the balcony of my room and staring at the beautiful sky. It’s almost late in the evening and everywhere is so cool and soothing. Seeing the beautiful star that’s just appearing in the sky, a smile lace up my lips at the beauty of it. I wish I can touch the star and fine know how it feels. That have always been one of my dreams, but that’s the dream that’ll never come true. Nobody can touch the star in the sky, it’s never possible to do.

A deep sigh escape my lips as tons of thoughts flood my mind in just one second. The thought of Richmond, I wonder how he’s doing now. The thought of Nelson. I just pray the little boy is fine without me now. It hurts to know that I may not see him again, knowing that I won’t go back there again, but I’ll always find a way to make sure that he’s safe. He treated and regard me as his mom, so I should protect him just like his mom would’ve done if she were still alive. After I found out about the death of his mom, I’ve felt soft toward the family, especially Richmond. I understand the pain he must’ve passed through.

What happened to his mom? This is the question that I’m yet to get an answer to and it’s already killing me. Our paths are two different ways that should never have crossed, but when it did, he mistook me for a saint and fell for me. It hurts that he would have to deal with another heartbreak after the pain he has been through from the death of his wife years ago.

I inhale the fresh air and it refreshes me as I hold the rail and lean on my hand. I smile as the gentle wind blows gently on my face, swaying my soft hair gently. Thinking about Jay, I sigh deeply and open my eyes. It still feels like I’m dreaming. I’ve just been here for less than forty eight hours, and I’ve had sex with him more than two times already. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but the fact that I can’t always resist him is the problem with me and it keeps driving me crazy. Since my work here is done, I think it’s time I return back to Mexico and join my team again. I mean, my service here is no longer needed.

The sound of the footsteps drawing closer from behind me pulls my attention and I tilt my head to find Alex walking over to me. Who asked him into my room?

“Jay demands your presence in the basement, it’s urgent,” He sounds urgent, making me wonder what’s happening down there. I nod slowly and he walk away. I sigh softly and stride back into the room, heading to the door. I pull it open and exit the room.

Stepping into the room where we usually meet for discussion, I spot him sitting on the chair. His face shows that there’s something wrong.

For the next minutes, an awkward silence assumes the air and I anticipate what he’s going to say. Suddenly, he drops a picture of a man on the table.

“Your next mission, Harley. That’s Felix, the cop that was sent to assist Richmond. Just a few minutes ago, I got a call that he’s trying to investigate us. I want him out of the picture,” He say with finality in his voice. He stands up and walk away, leaving me in the dark. Wait, I thought I was supposed to handle just one mission? How come he’s sending me on another one?

“I’ll send every necessary information you would need later,” Alex walk away too…

Author POV

She walk into the garden, where she meet Jay standing and watching the flowers. He feels her presence as soon as she walks in and a smile lace up his lips. For the past few weeks, he has been so addicted to her. He realized that he must’ve fallen in love with her. He turns around to face her, his hands are tucked inside his pockets.

“Hey,” He smile at her and she sigh. She wasn’t expecting someone that was looking all dangerous just a few moments ago, to look like the gentleman he’s not, now.

“Can we talk?” She asks and he pull a puzzled look for seconds before he finally nod.

“I want to go back to Mexico,” His smile slowly dissipated into a confused look as he stares at her.

“What do you mean?” He asks to be sure he heard her right.

“My service here is no longer needed, I should go back already…”

“You’re going nowhere,” He reply her simply and turn away from her.

“Why?” She questions, getting pissed off already.

“Because I don’t want you to,” He reply her sarcastically, not sparing her a glance and she scoffs unbelievably.

“Why? Because you’re not done using me, right? You can’t let me go because you need me here to satisfy your sexual urge, right? What do you take me for? A whore?…”

“Is that what it is to you? Is that what it looks like to you? Can’t you see that I love you?” His face suddenly turns into an emotional expression. He look hurt.

“And you want me to believe that? How is that even possible? You brought me back here and started sleeping with me and you dare to claim that you love me?”

“Do you think if it’s sex I want so badly, I would bring you back here? You think I can’t have it anywhere and with anyone I like to? You’re mine, Harley and there’s no way I’ll let you out of here. Not now and not ever,” He speak with authority in his voice and she scoff.

“Jay!”

“I’m done with this discussion,” He cuts her off and with that, he walk away leaving her dumbstruck…Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
