Elias’s POV

What the f**k am I doing? Why do I feel such an overwhelming need to protect this woman? I don’t even know her. What was that shock I felt? I’ve never felt anything like it in my life, and now I’m craving it. I’m even bringing her to my own Apartment. MY OWN! I think I’m going crazy. I’ve never done this with anyone before. She has got her head down while following me. At least she is doing what she’s told. I opened the back door waiting for her to get in. She seems so skittish. I don’t know what I’m gonna get her to do. I closed the door after her and drove, all the while thinking about jobs, I could put her up to.

As I drive into the driveway, I realise what I’m gonna get her to do. She can be a waitress at the club while I train her up for something else. We’ll see what she’s capable of during training. For now, I will always have one of my men with her. Partly because I don’t know whether I can trust her, but partly because now that she’s part of the Deadly Titans, and she will now be on our enemy’s hitlist with the rest of us. Especially because she’s knew and vulnerable.

As we walked up the steps towards my Apartment building, I looked at her face. I could see the situation had caught up to her. She was shaking and her face had hardened as if she was clenching her teeth.

“Don’t worry,” I assured her, “as long as you don’t double-cross us, you will be safe.”

“Okay,” She breathed with relief.

The Deadly Titans take care of their own, but if you dare double cross us, you will pay the ultimate price. After we torture them using old-timey methods of course. Just for a bit of fun.

We get up to my apartment and she looked astonished. Her eyes wide and mouth open, as if she had never seen anything like this in her life. Maybe she hadn’t. Not all of us grew up with the money to buy the nicest things I suppose.

“Wow,” she exclaimed, “I’ve never seen such a nice Flat.”

I looked at her confused. “Flat?”

“It’s what we call Apartments.”

Strange. “Okay. So, let’s get down to business, shall we?”

“Okay,” she said timidly, “but what about my job?”

I never thought she might have a job. Why didn’t I think about that? I suppose this could be a good thing depending on what she does. “What do you do?”

“I’m a doctor.”

Excellent. We have a resident doctor, but he doesn’t work out in the field. It would be handy if we did though. Once I train her, then that is what she can do for us. You really are brilliant Elias. Why thank you Elias. Oh my god I am going crazy. I giggle to myself at that remark. Too late. I realised I had taken longer than I should have to answer, and I could see the worry forming in her eyes. “Excellent. That will work in our favour. I am going to train you in combat, and then I would like you to be a doctor in the field.”

“In,” she gulped, “the field?”

“Yes. In the field. When we go out on missions, deliveries etc. Don’t worry. I will have you well versed in it all before you go out to do any of that. I will allow you to go to work, but one of my men will go with you to keep an eye on you. We have a resident doctor who helps us when we come back here so, for now you can help him out when you aren’t at work, and then you come back here.”

“What about my family? Can I visit or talk to them?”

“No visits until I can be sure I can trust you. Phone calls will be monitored for now to make sure you don’t do something silly like call the Police, because if you do, well, let’s hope it doesn’t come to that shall we?” She nodded vigorously and winced. I am pretty sure she hurt her neck. Silly b***h. I can’t help thinking though, that I would love to be kissing and nibbling the small of that neck. Oh, the things I would love to do to that body of hers. Her perky breasts and voluptuous ass were amazing. I shake my head at the thought. What the f**k am I thinking? I have just employed this woman I can’t be thinking like this. Oh, mio dio (oh my god).

“Let me show you to your room.”

“Thanks,” she said timidly. I grabbed her by the shoulders and forced her look at me. Damn, the electricity between us is intoxicating.

“Don’t be so scared. You’ve nothing to worry about as long as you try your hardest during training, follow orders, and do not betray us. When you are ready, well, when I think you are ready, you will start doing missions. We’ll start you off easy, then we’ll work you up to the harder missions, but we’ll talk more about that during training.”

She followed me as I walked her to the spare room. When I opened the door, she looked as amazed at this room as she did when she first walked into the Apartment. It has a four-poster, mahogany bed with clean-white, one thousand thread count, Egyptian cotton bedsheets. All the furniture in the room was mahogany including a dresser, a wardrobe, and two bedside tables at each side of the bed. Again, I don’t know what she is so amazed about. It is only a room. “I’m assuming you like the room then?” I teased.

“I’m speechless. I’ve never seen so much mahogany in my life.”

I watched as she walked around the room. Then she did something I was not expecting. She ran and jumped onto the bed, like an excited child, started jumping, and then lay down. I just stood and watched her while she lay. She looked so peaceful and contented.

“This bed is the most comfortable bed I’ve ever lay on” she breathed, “I could lie here forever.”

“Well I will leave you be for now, and I will see you in the morning. When do you start work?”

“Tomorrow is Saturday, so I don’t start work until 9am on Monday. I work in a GP surgery in East Belfast.”

“Excellent. We will start your training tomorrow at 6am. Be ready. I hate lateness. The room has an en-suite through that door.” I pointed to the door in the corner. “Good night.”

Before she could say anything, I closed the door. I looked down at my phone and noticed I had ten missed calls from my right-hand man, Alec Santoro. I need to let him know what is happening.

“Hey Alec.”

“What the f**k happened at the club, man? I heard there was a shoot up from the Novikov’s,” he asked worriedly.

“That’s a bit of an over exaggeration. They let off a warning shot, then we talked, and everything is good. We need to find out who killed Novikov’s brother. Someone killed him and left our mark. I said we would find them and hand them over. Oh, and keep this between us. I don’t want the killer getting spooked.”

“Will do Boss.”

“Meet me at the office tomorrow at 12pm, sharp, and I’d like you to guard the woman in my spare room.”

“Wait, what?”

“Meet me at 4.30 in my Apartment and I’ll explain.”

I hung up before he could complain. Cannot be bothered listening to his whining. I may get some sleep. It has been a long day, and tomorrow is going to be even longer. As I walked past Naomi’s room, I couldn’t help but wonder what she was doing.
