Chapter 123 Trouble

Sorry for posting this so late,I thought that I already posted it,but realized that I didn't press the post button xD

==============================================================================

-So...lets start who are you ?

I asked calmly sitting on a wooden chair inside my room facing the girl with black clothing in front of me who was tied tight sitting on another wooden chair struggling silently with her hands trying to do something which I could already guess what was.

-Your searching for this ?

I asked once again waving the 5 small knives in front of the her face,her eyes quickly retracted towards my hand staring at the 5 little sharp knives with a look of total disbelieve written all over her face,starting to guess the predicament she had gotten herself in.

Her red brown hair drooped down for a moment and her beautiful white skin had turned into a ashen pale her lips trembled as she continued to struggle further searching for something that would make the situation go back into her favor,but unfortunately,I had already taken every single weapon in her possession including other items and weaponry other then the clothing she had on her body there was nothing she could do and even if she escaped somehow I highly doubt she will be able to run away.

-Answer me...who are you and what do you want

I repeated glancing at the knives in my hand while talking coldly,the woman didn't struggle anymore she turned her gaze to me looking at me with anger and disdain,I didn't like the way she was looking at me and plainly being assaulted numerous times already was getting on my nerves.

(Swish)

With a lightning quick move I drew one of the daggers from my hand pointing the tip of the small blade directly in front of her right eye immediately stopped a few millimeters,almost touching her eye with the sharp blade tip.

She froze seeing this lighting fast move the woman didn't shake or struggle anymore rather a look of panic and fear spread through her eyes,she didn't dare to move anymore and finally spoke.

The name of the girl is scar it is short for scarlet she doesn't seem to have a surname,not that I cared anyways.

The reason she was here was to take the strength drug that was currently under my possession her employer a drug lord who operates in this city wanted the particular strength drug,but couldn't take it because the magicians associations had it making him think twice to cross with the mages and instead call for a assassin which is her to take it from the mages.

As it turns out this woman had been following harlin for the last few days trying to snatch the drug unnoticed she couldn't do it most of the time because harlin was very protective and careful with the way she carried the drug,finally harlin gave the drug to kashmar so he could deliver it to the local alchemist for inspection scar hired a few thugs to shake kashmar and rob him from the potion the reason she didn't take it herself was because she also feared the mages and didn't want their wrath to be pointed at her if they somehow figured out it was she who stole the potion in the first place.

Unfortunately things didn't go as planned the thugs weren't informed of what they were supposed to grab from kashmar so when they threw him out from the tavern bar scar witnessed the potion being destroyed,at the time she thought that her job ended at that,but after I dealt with the thugs with my magic-Thats what she is calling it by the way-and pulled out another much identical potion from my pocket,she was surprised and came back to herself,continuing to work.

Her deadline seemed to be awfully close so she had no time to investigate me before hand and just followed me and kashmar to the local alchemist where we handed over the potion she didn't hear the content of our conversation since she was very distanced away vary of me since I possessed magic after we handed over the potion she tried to take it from the alchemist immediately,but just as she was about to do that harlin arrived in the alchemy shop making her stop in her tracks and wait again as she watched harlin take the drug from the alchemist who didn't seem to have a single clue how the drug was made nor how to reverse engineer it to the base ingredients.

After scar heard the news of there not being any solution to mass produce the drug she got disappointed and wonder if she should just stop her mission,but after thinking for a bit more scar remembered that I had pulled out the same identical potion out of my pocket she figured that I must have more or the potion was fake in itself,but even she couldn't figure why I had given the potion to kashmar in the first place so she ended up simply trusting her gut and trying to search for me.

Unfortunately another problem arose which came in the form of harlin who also came with her to search for her apprentice kashmar who was with me at the time,the three of us were together so she had no way of getting close nor hear what we were talking about the only thing she saw was harlin giving me the potion back and showing a serious look on her face scar figured that they wanted me to replicate the potion and provide them with more which she was right about.

Finally when we parted ways scar started to follow me instead,at the time I noticed that I was being followed,but just waited it out after she saw me entering the tavern bar she decided to do the same trick on me as she did with kashmar,but this time another problem arose.

Scar completely forgot that I possessed magic because she had the whole mentality of me looking as young as kashmar she thought of me as a unexperienced mage when she hired another few thugs to take care of me which already back fired heavily finally ending up in this situation where she decided that she would take the job in her own hands no,matter what the consequences might be stealing me with the potions since she figured that I was one of the only people who could make them.

But yet again it was unfortunate,miserable and unlucky she ended up being captured herself without her even knowing how and now sitting in front of me under my mercy.

-Thats an awful story...

I commented giving her some small amount of sympathy since she had been failing one after another since beginning of her task,if it was me I would have already abandoned the mission looking at how many times it had failed so far,but at the same time if I was in her shoes then I would have probably taken a complete different approach.

-I know...

Scar said almost growling even while gritting her teeth,she was a fairly cute and beautiful woman with ample breasts and good curves,I wonder how come such a woman wasn't the wife of a wealthy noble or business man already and instead took the chance to become an assassin,but at the same time one of the girls in my house our cook elisabeth was also a assassin previously her motivation to become an assassin was completely different then hers probably because elisabeth was born in the central a city were everyone can kill anyone and no,one would care.

Anyways it was only a thought really sniffing into this persons personal life wasn't in my interest there was only one thing I was concerned about.

-Now...what do I do with you...

My tone was cold and eyes shone in a foggy light scar trembled for a moment getting even paler when she realized the clear killing intent I was leaking out,she knew that I was going to kill her if it was needed and currently I was really considering the option to do so.

The reason you might ask...she can be a giant pain in my ass with the current goal I had,if someone knows that I am in possession of this drug then there are going to be all kinds of problems that could arise from this harlin even exclusively warned me not to tell or let anyone know that I had the drug and if that drug lord somehow finds out that I have the drug and can reproduce it then he is going to take action without a doubt setting this woman free wasn't inside my pool of options at least not until tomorrow or the day after.

-Whhat...what are you intending to do to me...

She asked now very scared looking at me terrified of what might happen to her,I wondered why she wasn't screaming already ? She could potential just scream and call for help say that I was intending on hurting her or rape her was it because she looked very suspicious with her clothing?Or she didn't want to be found out maybe?

I didn't voice my thoughts,maybe she is just forgetting the options she has right now,from what I can tell she isn't the most brightest light in the sky so she may just be overwhelmed by her fears not even sure what to think since most her options were already taken from me.

-I am intending on anything if your not doing the same that is...

I warned her it was a weak threat,but it had its intended effect making the woman lower her head and shut up for a moment.

Sleeping wasn't going to happen,I wasn't going to set this woman free nor was I going to close an eye in her presence I would rather guard her and wait until tomorrow and keep an eye on her until I am finished with my own business.

At the same time I could also chose the easy road.

To kill her,but the problem here was though I don't feel comfortable killing woman,I have it in me to kill females,but right now I have the option to not do so even if its a bit troublesome I don't want to kill without a reason on top of that she is helpless and unarmed making me feel even more guilty to do the deed.

Scar also realized this fact after a few minutes noticing that I stopped showing signs of killing intent and rather watch her with me faintly glowing golden eyes,the darkness enshrouded us together in my view everything was bright with no spec of dark,but her view everything was dark only my golden eyes were piercing through that darkness making me look very mysterious and almost charming even.

Scar didn't talk nor did I voice anything we continued sitting like this for an hour half of which was spend on her story the night would continue on longer I would get tired slightly because of the lack of sleep,but I would live.

Just as I was thinking like this someone knocked the wooden door to my room,I didn't notice that someone was behind the door I was too concentrated on watching scar and indulged inside my own thoughts that I lost some of my senses hearing the knock made both me and scar look back at the door confused.

-You stay quiet if you make a sound don't think I won't strike you or worse...

I growled at her lightly threatening her to make her shut up,she nodded her head furiously hearing my threat and didn't say anything anymore just looking down.

With this done I stood up and quickly carried scar over my shoulder she whimper and squealed when I did,but didn't say anything since she understood what I was trying to do.

She was tied up so I wasn't worried of her somehow making an escape,I needed to hide her in case someone came into the room,there wasn't any closed space inside the room nor any big wardrobe where I could put this woman inside so instead I put her into the bed and crawled in myself hugging her tight with my body and pressing her onto my chest to make ourselves look smaller scar was now starting to get even more panicked,blushing had as she wanted to say something,but I glared at her angrily to tell her to shut up,she understood my glare and didn't voice anything and just kept herself pressed on me.

-Ehm...dawn are you awake ?

Someone spoke behind the door the voice was familiar it was the bar maiden drew...what did she want in the middle of the night..

I didn't answer her and instead waited until she would leave herself figuring that I was sleeping already after 40 minutes or so drew stopped trying to contact me and finally decided to leave she seemed a bit grumpy and embarrassed when she realized that I wasn't going to answer thinking that I was in deep sleep already.

With her finally gone,I sighed.

-uhhm...its really stuffy in here...

Scar said her words sounded awfully seductive and only now I had realized how the situation had turned out.

Looking down I could see the completed flushed scar her breath was unusual and she seemed to be sweating more her clothing was also messy,but because it was tight there wasn't anything revealing about it,just making her sweat some more because of the warmth.

I could smell her sweet sweat and feeling her alluring body pressing on me her ankles were touching my own it was pretty warm and she looked very sexy...stop thinking.

I willed myself...if this continues I am not sure if I am able to control myself so for the good of me and this woman I don't want any more problems then I already had.

Double checking whether or not drew had already left I quietly raised the blanket again and revealed the sweaty scar who got up very flushed breathing in some fresh air and trying to calm herself,her breasts were constantly going up and down after every breath.

Looking at her I couldn't help,but troubled even more.
