You Are My Savior (English version)

CHAPTER 12 THE TRACING



A week of training passed and Rhianna learned how to handle a gun. Leo taught her for a week. Brandon and Leo are fine, too. They decided not to let Agent Jerald know what had happened.

Leo and Rhianna are on their way home from training at Head Quarters. They were traveling back home when she saw a car following them. She was suddenly nervous.

“Leo, do you notice the car following us?” she asked him. He turned to her.

“Yeah, I noticed it earlier.” He picked up the cellphone that was placed on the dashboard. He dialed on the cellphone and put it to his ear. A few seconds also passed before he spoke. Probably someone answered his call.

“Someone is following us, Harold. We’re in danger. We’re in the middle of the road – okay. Thank you.” he said and immediately turned off the call and returned the cellphone to the dashboard.

“What are we going to do now Leo?” she asked. She was nervous about what might happen. Could it be his uncle’s tentacle? Maybe uncle men found her?

“Please Calm down Rhianna. Nothing bad will happen to you. I will save you.” he said reassuringly and looked at her.

That’s how fast his heart beats when he stares at her. She remembers telling her that he was jealous of Brandon. When they arrived home they didn’t talk about that.

They reached the house and Leo entered the vehicle inside the compound. They desist. Suddenly, she heard a series of shootings that were hitting the vehicle.

“Sit down!” he commanded. She immediately obeyed his command. She bent down to protect herself.

They had nothing against those guys who were shooting them in the car because they were inside the car. And it looks like he’s not the only one firing a gun. She heard a series of gunshots again. Leo took the gun to the side and looked out the window and fired the gun.

She covered her ears with his hands. She was deafened by the force of the exchange of gunfire hitting the car. Looks like her life ends here. She hopes not. Her mother and sister still need her.

She heard again a series of shooting from a distance. She looked at Leo who was now out of the car. She saw he had something right on his shoulder. The exchange of gunfire stopped and the surroundings became quiet.

She looked outside to where Leo was. She got out of the car and saw Leo’s comrades approaching him. Carmela ran over him.

“Oh my gosh! Your right shoulder was bleeding, Leo.” Carmela said with a look of confusion on her face. She won’t know why she’s disgusted with what she saw. Brandon and Harold were approaching where she was. They weren’t with Alexandra, maybe she’s in Head Quarters.

“Are you okay, Leo? You’re almost there.” Harold said worriedly. Brandon approached her.

“Are you alright?” he asked Rhianna. She just nodded. She saw out of the corner of my eyes that Leo was looking in their direction.

“Where are the opponents?” he asked.

“They escaped, we couldn’t follow them. But the important now is the two of you are okay and safe.” he told her and his face shows concern.

They bid farewell and they immediately went inside the house. Carmela insisted on healing Leo’s wound. But, Leo insisted that he could heal his wound.

She’s now in her room and thinking of Leo. She had to treat him, those were two wounds caused by the gun so he had to be treated, even if he could treat himself, it’s different when someone else was treating him.

She get out of her room and went to his room. She turned the doorknob and it didn’t close. She pushed the door inward. Leo stopped what he was doing when he saw her standing outside the door.

“Go back to your room, I can handle this.” he said to Rhianna. She approached him and sat on the bed. She took the cotton in his hand and started cleaning his gunshot wounds. He did not protest. He was just staring at her. She remembers when he massage her foot, she just returned what he’s done to her.

“Thanks for rescuing me. I don’t know those guys. Probably my uncle’s man.” she said.

“We have to leave here tonight. We are no longer safe in this house. We will be traceable if we stay here.” he said.

She looked at him and their eyes met. His eyes moved to her lips. She suddenly felt a rapid throbbing of her chest. He slowly brought his face closer to hers.

The next thing she knew, their lips applied. At first, it was gentle but eventually, his kisses became passionate. She felt excited at what he did. I reciprocated his kisses. He held my cheeks.

“Ouch!” he moans. Their lips parted immediately. Then, she realized what had happened to them. He was hurt because she made a lift on his hand.

“I’ll finish the treatment.” She said and ignored the kiss they shared earlier.

Why did he kiss him? Does he feel an attraction to her or maybe he just really wants to kiss her. She brushed it off in her mind and focused on treating him.

After treating his wounds she went to her room and picked up the first aid kit that she used in treating his gunshot wounds. They are no longer safe in this place. After she placed the first aid kit in the cabinet she go back to Leo’s room. He is already asleep.

She packed their things. Because that’s what they talked about earlier before she left his room. She couldn’t help but stare at his face, at his lips that kissed her. She touches her lips like the kiss is still on her lips. That was her first kiss. So, that’s how it feels when someone kissed you especially if he’s important to you. Feels good.

The silence of the night prevailed. Only the sound of the cutlery can be heard in those moments. No one wants to break the silence. Leo sighed. She looked at him.

“Your sigh is too depth.” she jokingly said to him. He looked at her. She immediately turned her attention back to the food because of the intensity of his stares. She still can’t stand his stare. She feels like she’s going to lose consciousness.

“I want to say sorry for what happened earlier. I didn’t mean to kiss you. I was just carried away.” he said.

Why does it seem so painful to hear those words from him? That he didn’t like the kiss that they shared. It was as if a dagger had pierced her chest. It hurts so much. She swallowed. She should not let him know that she was affected by what he said. She doesn’t want him to think she likes him. Why? Because he doesn’t like her either. She might just be embarrassed.

“That’s okay. I was carried away too,” she said and immediately stood up and go to the sink and put the plates on it. Leo stood up as well.

“I’ll just get our things ready in the car.” he said and left the kitchen.

After he left, she could not hold back her tears. She needs to get rid of her feelings for him because as time goes on she gets more and more hurt by what he shows her.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
