Chapter 83 - Her Choice (1/2)
Diana walked towards Nathan, looking at his stoic expression. But immediately she got to where he stood; before she could say anything, his hand went around her waist, making her widened her eyes.
”What are you doing?” she asked, looking up at his face. She knew it was useless to try and free herself from him anyway. Even though he didn't apply much strength to it, she still felt like being in between an iron cage.
Not paying attention to her questions, Nathan, who only wanted to confirm if she's fit for all this, as there will be some situations which might make her being intimate with someone she didn't know, whether, since it's work related.
Feeling not so good with this; Diana cleared her throat, ”this isn't right.” she said, feeling scared. She felt scared because she couldn't even reply like she wished to.
She would have cursed and hit him now, but can she dare do that? aside from the fact that she shamelessly asked him to sleep with her, which he didn't when he could; He helped her a lot and he's officially her boss now.
But she's completely sane now, and didn't like the closeness. There isn't any particular reason for it, which made it seem awkward.
Before she could finish thinking, ”I'm proud of you human.” Nathan said, which made Diana finally calm down, the hug made sense now.
”Thank you.” she said.
”Do you still want this? You could die at anytime human, I'm giving you a chance to rethink tonight. I can still let you stay here and get protected, without having to become like us till that bastard is out.
If you die, your parents struggle will be in vain, what do you say?” Nathan asked.
Diana felt touched by his consideration, she could detect the sincerity in his tone, which was unlikely.
But no! even though she came this lane to survive at all cost and kill Shane in the first place; it's different now. She felt different and also getting more confident in her prowess.
She wants this now, not only because she has a goal, but also because tonight she came to understand a lot of things. She has everything she has ever wished for here.
There's hope to taking down her enemies with her own hands, there is equality among them here, the treatment she got here is so good if the harshness in the training was excluded.
Even her foster family didn't treat her this well, everything they did for her seem forced, it's like they were threatened to do so or something. Her assumed twin sister treated her like her mortal enemy.
She wanted this now, because she has come to like it. She couldn't fathom how harsh the training will get but she's willing to take up on the challenge. After tonight; she's all for it and ready to face what's to come.
”I want to do this.” Diana finally spoke into his chest.
Nathan raised his brow and release her, ”Are you sure? there's no special treatment after today.” He said.
”I'm cool with it.” She said.
”It will get harder. you will have to kill if asked or missioned to. you will barely see me; so no one to complain to, and Aroma will get more harsher as you train further.
You can't talk about me behind my back, so we would barely talk to each other unless it's work related. Are you still willing?” Nathan asked with a smirk lingering on his lips, even though he was really worried.
”As long as the person I have to kill is a bastard like Shane, I'm cool with it.” Diana replied.
