2 days later Eden and Malakai were the best they could've been. They still had some answers they wanted but other than that, it didn't seem like anything was getting in the way. But of course luck was never on their side. "Have you asked Alec why he kissed you yet?" Eden asked randomly as she was lounging in Malakai's office on her phone. "No, but I didn't think I needed to. He apologised." Malakai said without looking up at his girlfriend and that agitated Eden. "There was a reason he kissed you, yeah he apologised but that's not an explanation. Haven't you ever heard the saying 'drunk words are sober thoughts?'" Eden continued and Malakai still hadn't looked up. "That doesn't prove he had a motive. He was drunk out of his mind Eden, we all were." Malakai's eyes were flicking to the documents in front of him and his laptop and not once to his lover. "He kissed you with something in mind, but you're obviously not getting that." Eden was getting annoyed now and the other wa
"I'm not a psychopath. I'm a high-functioning sociopath." Eden said, correcting her. She struggled a little as the woman tried to get free but she got her to the balcony. "Now I would love to cut you up in pieces and send you to my boyfriend so I could get a reward, but he's being an asshole to me right now. Also I'm supposed to make your 'fall' look like an accident." Eden held her arms and smiled like a maniac. The woman was shaking and whimpering, scared for her life. "You know, when you're in a relationship, your boyfriend isn't supposed to ignore you is he? Like I want attention, is that so hard to get? Am I right?" Yes, Eden was still pissed at Malakai. The woman violently nodded answering Eden's question. She was confused on why she was making conversation with her though. "Okay whatever, I'll ignore him right back, see how he likes. And your time has come to an end. Say hi to the grim reaper for me." Eden pushed the woman over the ledge, making her fall at least 20 ft
It was all a blur for Eden. She passed out as soon as she felt her boyfriend's arms catch her. She was losing blood quickly. Alec cursed out loud, seeing Eden like this hurt him too, a lot more than he thought. But Kai wasn't in the right state of mind right now, so he had to take over. As soon as Malakai had come to his senses again, he picked up the blond haired girl and rushed her to the infirmary. Astrid ran to her side, trying to stop the blood. Another nurse attended to Ethan. "Kai, please, we need you to leave. We can't work like this." The nurse had said, and Astrid agreed. "Yeah, Malakai. Sorry, but we need you out." Astrid said and motioned for Alec and Aiden to get him out. It was hard to get him out, but they managed to somehow. The raven haired house paced the halls outside the infirmary, head in his hands as he kept cursing. He turned to Alec, who could so clearly see the pure pain visible in his eyes. Eden was shot, but Malakai felt like he was the one who was d
The next day after breakfast, Malakai and Eden went to the agency together and Malakai called everyone to his office. By everyone I mean Eden, Alec, Astrid, Aiden and Ethan, and a couple other agents, Ten, Ambrose, and Jules. "Okay, last night a threat form Elijah was sent in again. I asked for a lockdown, so tell me. Is there anyone that went out this morning? I need them here." Malakai spoke with a cold, serious face. His demeanour quickly turns dark as soon as he goes boss mode. Eden found it amazing. How Malakai was so soft and caring with her. But as soon as he switches to boss mode, his aura goes dark and dangerous. Almost scary for Eden. It was hot, but scary. "Sir, Rhys went out this morning. He said he had a mission. I'm not sure what it was and it wasn't on his record. But he wouldn't say exactly what his mission was." Ethan said. "I haven't given him any missions for the past week. And neither has Alec." said Malakai, concern evident on his face. Malakai deep in
It seemed Malakai had realised he needed to do something. He suddenly burst into his own office where Alec was sitting, Aiden and Astrid were also there. They all looked shocked. Normally it would be so difficult to even get him out of the room and away from Eden. "Kai?" Aiden called out. He was just as concerned as Malakai, but Malakai just a little more. "I want him dead. I don't care how but he needs to be in hell" Malakai said in a dark voice that would send shivers down anyone's spine. The look in his eyes, not something to be messed with. Of course the others knew who he was referring to. They had been trying to track him down. "We're already looking at Malakai. It's all Alec and I have been doing. We'll find him" Aiden said to the elder. Malakai sighed and sat down at his desk. He couldn't bear to see Eden in that state any longer or he would've gone insane. He looked around the room and knew the others had things to say but he couldn't be bothered to answer. "
"But I don't regret meeting you. This sounds so cliche, but you’re the only light in my dark life right now. And you know how dark that is." He laughed slightly. "I think we've found Elijah and Serena, but it's a little hard to get to them right now. But don't worry, I'll get your revenge my love." He kissed her hand and held it close. "This I promise you. And a promise I don't intend to break." Malakai will never let Serena or Elijah get away with this. Even if it was the last thing he did. If he had to give up his entire gang for it. He would make them pay. "I love you Eden Salvatore." He said, almost in a wiper, but loud enough for just the two to hear. "I-I love you t-too" Malakai's head had never moved faster. He felt as if he may have just broken his neck but he didn't give a shit. Eden whispered in a broken and quiet voice. She barely had any energy but she was able to find enough to be able to wake her body up. Her mind was already awake but not his body.
"Sienna and Eric were talking about their wedding venue. They were thinking about the huge garden in the back of Kai’s manor." The said couple looked at her in disappointment. "I feel betrayed. It was supposed to be a surprise." Sienna said with a pout. "Alec was talking about moving away somewhere and......" he was cut off as Alec covered her mouth with his hand and nervously looked at Malakai. "That's enough, don't you think Eden?" Alec looked at her, also in betrayal. Eden just laughed and removed his hand. Alec looked at Malakai waiting, for what? He had no idea. "And when were you going to tell me?" Malakai finally said and Alec suddenly found the wall behind them veeeery interesting. Malakai sighed and decided he'd talk later. "Kai said you um, found Elijah and Serena. Is that true?" She looked hopefully at everyone and they all nodded. Eden was relieved, but at the same time, she didn't know how to feel. Did she want them dead, or let them go? "We're still comin
It had been 2 days and Malakai was desperately waiting for when his sister would show up. He wanted to see her so bad. Malakai and Alec's friendship went back to normal, Alec would even tease Malakai and Eden about each other and they wouldn't mind. Eden and Alec agreed to stay friends too, so the three were on good terms. Although Eden still had questions. Eden walked into Malakai's office as she was scrolling on her phone, Malakai didn't even have to look up to know it was Eden since she was the only one who wouldn't knock. "Good morning baby." Malakai said and Eden put her phone away going to Malakai and sitting on his desk in front of him. "Morning. Do you have a mission for me?" Eden asked, she was acting a little weird, she was being very cold and distant and Malakai didn't know why. "Maybe. What's wrong Eden? You don't seem yourself." Malakai said and looked up at her. "I'm fine. Just, I don't know." Eden said and ran her hands through her hair in frustration and Ma
