His to protect

The Sabotage

DAMIEN’S POV

I have guarded many people name it Presidents, Senators, Judges, Royals and all but never in my 27 years of living and 7 years as the best bodyguard have I ever met someone capable of driving me insane until the blonde who always packed her hair up in a tight ponytail like she never wanted it bothered and now looking back the pictures on her file did her no justice at all. Her Emerald green eyes made it hard to look away and with a stellar body like hers it was difficult to look away but I needed to remind myself I was here for work not frolicking. After our little chat this morning I was sure as hell that she was not going down without a fight and good thing is I love fights.

“ Lucas, I’d like a rundown on how security has been around here especially how security has been around her, and also I’ll need you to set up cameras at these places pronto”

“Copy. But one of these places is the window Miss Aurora”

“Yes, as a matter of fact it should be installed first so get to work”

A few minutes after he left another walks in with a folder

“Thanks,” I mutter to dismiss him

While brushing through I see she has had three bodyguards in a space of a month. This brings a smile to my face.

Once I was done reviewing the file I went up to give her a rundown of how she wanted the day was going to go. Before I could knock I heard her pacing in her room talking to someone other than her partner in crime Valentina Russo daughter of Marco Russo a shipping and logistics magnate and Isabella Russo former Runway model now philanthropist.

“ I can’t believe he wants to turn me into a toddler. He’s literally the reason why I missed the part and now he’s telling me what I can and can’t do like like it’s frustrating me Val” I could hear her pacing up and down her room talking to her best friend

“Well, since I gave him the chance to leave and he refused I will make him lose his job how hard could that be? Matter of fact I have an idea”

Bingo. That’s the thing princess I am not the same as your other bodyguard. The only way she is going to get rid of me is when she succeeds in killing me and that would not be happening anytime soon. I stand by and hear her rattle out her plan to her friend.

After, I retreat to my room and wait for her to set her plan in motion

2 hours later..

I hear a knock on my door and lo and behold is none other than the menace herself

“We’re going to the mall; I’d need some therapy for the babying I’m about to go through”

“In that” I retort, looking at her dressed in a halter neck top that showed off too much cleavage that should be considered an offense and she also had on some leopard print capri pants which showed her dermal piercing and butterfly tattoo.

“What are you going to baby me on what to wear now? What next my attitude or maybe who I have s*x with huh”

“Well, since you’ve brought it up; we have to work on your attitude cause you’re insufferable and also I don’t care who you choose to f**k that is none of my business unless he tries to kill you then it may become my concern”

“Are you sure about that cross because your lips are saying something but your body is saying another” She draws closer and I can smell her vanilla and bergamot perfume which was so intoxicating

“Well, let me make this clear Aurora, you are not my type and never will and you’re not exactly the type of girl I’d go in for.”

She turns around and marches angrily to the car and bangs the door as she shoves her hands under her breast. I stifle my laugh as I take my place in the driver's seat

After roaming through racks and shops for almost 3 hours we had finally come to an end at the Pandora shop. After we had to have most of the boxes delivered since the car was filled to the brim with boxes.

After I had arranged the boxes neatly inside I proceeded to go and open the car door for her but before I could do that 3 men appeared from nowhere and 1 grabbed her and put a knife to her throat.

“ That father of yours is going to pay dearly for everything he’s done” Listening to the voice I can tell this is one of her friends for sure. The line was one that was clearly rehearsed multiple times but since she badly wants to test me I’d give her the answer she badly desires.

I hit one from behind causing the knife to fall out of his hand I hit him hard to make him grovel and after I proceeded to kick him on his knee making sure it was only dislocated but with a little push would come back to its position.

Before I could pull my gun out at the others I hear her tiny voice

“ Don’t shoot them please” She has a heart to plead for people who almost took her life? Maybe I misjudged her. Before I could speak I saw her run and crouch to the size of the one I hit a few seconds ago

“ Dexter!! Are you okay??.. Can you hear me..see what you’ve done huh, you almost killed him”

“Me?? Kill him? I was only doing my job and that’s to protect you so how is this any of my fault huh?”

“Aurora you said he wasn’t going to hurt any of us” The one on the floor cried out

“I thought he wasn’t I’m sorry Dexter” She lets out a cry while pulling out her phone

“We are getting out of here now before something extraordinary happens again. I’ve called the ambulance already it should be here in a few minutes now get in before I drag you in”

She reluctantly walks into the car with a sad expression as I drive off.

“ I want you to know that this is all your fault. If you hadn’t come up with such a flimsy plan then none of your friends would have been hurt. I hope this serves as a good lesson to you do not test me next time or else I doubt the person would come out alive”

“So you knew about the plan with Val? Wait you were eavesdropping now huh? What next watch me when I’m taking showers? Guess what you are invited to a strip show Mr.”

I ignored her question and drove back home. I needed to give her a taste of her own medicine to see that I am not one of her bodyguards who let her get away with being spoiled.

After we got home, the same act as this morning happened again she banged the door and stomped up to her room.

Just as I was about to enter the house I received a text with an image of what happened at the mall

The text read “These amateurs are nothing compared to what I am going to do to you and your precious girl. Watch out Cross I’m watching you closely”
