Chapter 38 Always and forever
LUNA’S POV
” Baby , please for God sake listen to me ! Gray said behind me , while i totally continued ignoring him as I walked in heading towards the room .
When I had gotten in , I slammed the door behind me , but before i could close , he held it and got in .
” Luna , look at me , what the hell do you think you wanna do ? Trying to get yourself killed or what .”
” Gray , I’ve had enough of these nonsense, moreover I’m highly disappointed in you. I mean how could you look at me straight in the eyes and lie to my face . You clearly made a promise to me , and yet here i was thinking you weren’t going to go back on your word , I trusted you Gray, but what the hell , rather I was the fool ” . I yelled back at him , pouring out every bit of anger I felt at the moment.
” Alright fine ! I was wrong Luna , but I had no choice. And believe me , I was dying to tell you everything but I didn’t even know how to . You expect me to just walk up to you and say you’re being used to threaten me , and maybe , just maybe your life might be in danger too ? Luna , come on , please be understanding”
” The fact that you hid that shit from me isn’t the problem right now, that wouldn’t get me this mad and yunno it Gray but what the hell were you thinking going to meet that good for nothing liar , seriously you might be falling right into her trap , yet you don’t even know it .”
Gray couldn’t even bear to look me in the eyes while I lashed at him . Though I felt really bad yelling at him this way and mostly all because of that wench , but I had no other choice. I was so pissed and worst part he made a promise to me .
I didn’t want to yell at him anymore, so I decided to just turn and leave the room , at least to go out and get some fresh air also to calm down a bit .
I turned to leave , but Gray held me back and rested a little bit of his weight on my shoulders behind me . I couldn’t push him away , so I just had to stand still and remain that way waiting to hear what he had to say .
” I was wrong Luna , so wrong . I admit it so please forgive me . I didn’t want you involved in all this shit or get hurt doing something this dangerous with me ” Gray said
When I heard him , I sighed and turned around to look at him.
” Gray , I’m no longer a weakling, better still , I can protect myself. I am getting stronger with your help Gray at least let me prove it to you . please let me do this . I wanna play this game with you two , dangerous or not , I really want to . You don’t expect me to sit back at home and let you handle all these on you own “. I replied, this time with m voice really calm and soothing.
” One condition ” . Gray replied me after getting to look at my face for a while .
” Again ? Alright what is it ? ”
” If you can complete your training to my satisfaction before that time comes , then I promise I won’t hold you back but closely watch you . Just do exactly what I tell you to do “. Gray said still with that worried look on his face .
” Fine , as you wish. And j forgive you Gray, but don’t you ever lie to me again okay ? I said and hugged him tight ”
” And I love you , know that too ”
GRAY’S POV
” That isn’t right Luna , put your hands this way , it’s still a bit low ” . I held her waist standing behind her , with my other hands trying to give her hand a proper direction while adjusting it .
” Is this okay ? ” Luna asked still standing her position.
” Alright, that’s fine , now try it ” . I replied her and immediately she fired a bullet . It wasn’t that perfect but it was obvious she was improving little by little .
She did quite okay , but not to my Satisfaction.
” Luna , let’s try that again ” I said still unsatisfied with it again , if she doesn’t learn how to fire a bullet properly without missing, then how does she expect me to let her tag along especially by using her to find out who they really are .
” Gray , isn’t it enough for today … I’m really tired . and we’ve been doing this for hours now . I’m way to tired to continue , at least let me have a drink first” . She replied me .
I sighed and turned back .
” I’ll go get a drink , you keep trying harder okay ” . Though she was really getting better every seconds, but I needed her to be perfect not just better .
” Thanks ” . She replied and stood up to continue wearing back her glasses.
I badly wanted to stop her after seeing her for a second time and let her have some rest , but I couldn’t . I needed her to. try really hard and get ready for what’s coming.
I wouldn’t be able focus if Luna becomes a distraction to me over there .
I walked in with a drink in my hands but luna sat on the floor panting. When I came closer , I could tell she was really weak and tired .
I held her shoulders and raised her up .
” Are you okay !! ” I asked but did get any reply , assuming she was really tired , I just opened up the drink and handed it over to her .
The worried look on my face was so obvious, I would go nuts any moment if I don’t stop thinking anytime soon , but how would I expect to be calm when my girlfriend wouldn’t just listen to me .
” That’s enough for today , come get some rest okay ”
She held me back and sat me down close to her .
” Care to tell. me everything Gray? ”
I didn’t want to look straight into her eyes , no I couldn’t do so .C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
If only I could find a way to get her outta here before that time comes . I still don’t feel at ease letting her do such a thing .
” Gray ” I heard my name again
” I don’t know what’s happening Luna , I really don’t have an idea too , but if this works , I hope we’ll get to live our normal lives again ”
” Normal lives? That’s only when you stop these dangerous works you do Gray ” Luna replied.
I didn’t wanna give her an answer , reply or maybe make a promise I wasn’t ready to fulfill again.
Being a Mafia is what I really love , though it’s a dangerous work , but it’s part of me already and I haven’t had a good reason to quit such yet.
” Aren’t you hungry ?, Let’s go get something to eat okay ”
Luna could feel I was actually trying to change the topic . And I didn’t want to talk about it either .
She smiled and nodded , standing up her feet with me .
I paused and turned to face her .
” Don’t worry Luna , I won’t ever , I mean ever let anything happen to you okay ! You trust me right? I asked and leaned forward to kiss her forehead. ”
I really do love doing it all the time .
” I’ll also do the same for you Gray, I mean protect you too “. I chuckled hearing such words .
” Aren’t I supposed to be the one doing the protection? You’re a lady you know that right ? ” I asked .
” A stronger lady to be precise” She replied.
” Gray , I want a perfect and less dangerous sweet calm love life with you Gray . After all this is finished let’s go spend a long , long , long time somewhere else , pretty far away from here . I’m not actually asking you to give me an answer right now or make a decision right here and now Gray but think carefully about it and make your decision. ” Luna said and hugged me tight
” Whatever it is you choose or whoever you choose to be , I’m always here and close to you . ALWAYS AND FOREVER”.
