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
"We'll find out who did this. And we'll stop them from doing it again. I know I haven't formally met the two yet but if they mean the world to you, then they're important to me too." Malakai said to Eden as he hugged him. He had met them when they came to check on Eden when she got shot, and he met Sienna the night Eden got kidnapped, but he had never formally met them, he’d only seen Eric once, and they were not introduced to each other then. "Thank you." Eden whispered. She trusted Malakai to do what he said he would, he'd make sure of it. "You want to meet them?" Eden asked suddenly and broke from the hug. "Right now? Only one is conscious Eden. No offence." Malakai said and Eden rolled her eyes. "I was supposed to arrange something for all of you to meet but, you can at least meet my cousin." Eden said with a pout and Malakai just couldn't say no. It would be illegal to say no to a face like that. "Fine." He said and Eden jumped in joy. She got off the desk and dragged
"Hello brother." Malakai couldn't believe his eyes. She was here, in front of his eyes, alive and breathing. Malakai walked to her and touched her to see if she was real and pulled her into a hug. Lilith hugged back with the same amount of love radiating from Malakai's hug. The sight had Eden almost crying. The two had been separated for over 12 years and had finally found their way back to each other. It was a beautiful reunion if Eden's had a say. "Where have you been?" Malakai said when he pulled back and looked at his little sister. "Here and there." Lilith replied and Malakai hugged her again. I know you're wondering, how did Malakai recognise her face and voice after 12 years. Lilith's voice hadn't changed that much and as for her face, Malakai could never mistake her smile and her eyes. They were the two things that got him through the worst of times when they were younger. "Hello Eden." Lilith introduced herself when the siblings had separated. "H-hi. How do you
"Eden?" Malakai said and the other hummed in response. "Have you ever... tried to contact your parents again?" Malakai asked. He wanted to know but he also didn't want to be overstepping. "No." Eden simply said after some silence. "Is there a reason?" Malakai asked again carefully and Eden shrugged. "They kicked me out because I suddenly wasn't their daughter anymore Malakai, why would I want to contact them." Eden said. It wasn't really a question, it was more of a fact. She wasn't going to contact people that clearly wanted nothing to do with her. "I don't know if it's the same thing, Eden, but I would contact mine again. If I could, that is. But not because I'd miss them. Because I want to throw it in their faces how far I've come without them. I'd love to contact them just to tell them how much they ruined my life. And I know that's not very encouraging, but have you ever wondered how your parents were? If they're okay and stuff." Malakai explained and Eden thought about
Malakai sped to his house since he needed Eden hidden. The blond was a little scared but she didn't want to show it. How did everything come to this? "Malakai, how is your house any safer than the agency?" Eden asked and Malakai sighed, the younger was sacred and he could tell. "It's bulletproof. Windows and the building itself is, it's loaded with weapons and the gates are impenetrable. But also, no one knows where it is. They seemed to have discovered the agency." Malakai explained as he took turn after turn breaking every speed limit there was. He was like a whisper in the wind, a legend only to be heard of. He was already a ghost, now he was invisible too. Damn did he love his job. "Ok." Eden said just above a whisper and Malakai almost didn't hear. "It's going to be okay, I'm here to protect you baby. You were my guardian angel and now I'll be yours. You're my first priority." Malakai assured and Eden's nerves did relax a little. They reached the house and exited the
Malakai had power. A hell of a lot of it and he used it to his advantage. He came a long way from when his parents tried to kill him. Yes he experienced so many traumas along the way, the darkness inside him was built from it, but he came out of it stronger than anyone Eden had met. And that was truly admirable. There was always going to be that evil look in Malakai's eyes, his actions are always going to be criminal and his mind is always going to be dark. But it’s dark and beautiful. And that's what Eden fell in love with. "I still feel like this is my fault, no matter what you tell me, Kai. I disobeyed you. I went against you and I shouldn't have. I went and killed Mathew on my own accord and now you're all paying for it." Eden said, the guilt was never going to go away. "Believe me or not Eden, it's not your fault. You were helping a friend that needed helping. You might be a criminal, but even criminals have feelings. They have a past. You had a past friendship with Eleanor
"No way in fucking hell are you going." Eden said to Malakai who simply sighed at his verystubborn girlfriend."I have to go to Eden. And I need you to stay here so I know you're safe." Malakai explainedto her for the 10th time but Eden just didn't want to listen.After Astrids call, Malakai needed to go to the agency and fight with his agents and Edenwanted to come with. But Malakai strongly refused saying she'd be safer out of sight. And ofcourse Eden didn't agree."What about me?! I'll be safe but worrying about you. How is that any different than youworrying about me?" Eden tried to reason but this was one thing Malakai was firm on."They want you dead, Eden. The second they see you they'll open all fire in your direction. Iwill die Eden, if anything ever happens to you. So please, stay here." Malakai wasn't budgingand Eden didn't want Malakai out of sight either."And don't you think I'd die if anything happened to you? I need you to be safe too Malakai. Ineed you with me
Fuck, Malakai's eyes were loosing consciousness and he was close to falling, but he didn't care. He didn't care that he just got shot. He didn't care that he had a fucking bullet in him. Eden. Eden was his first thought, he wasn't going to break his promise. Everything around him was white noise as he saw Elijah looking at him with a shit eating grin. Malakai had to get back home to his love. So he pushed through the pain. He held his stomach and bit back the pain as he raised his own gun shooting Elijah in his leg. It was so quick no one could register what was happening. "Hope we're not too late." Malakai turned and saw Elias who shot Elijah;s other leg. Behind Elias was his own mafia, thank god. "Just in time." Malakai replied, smirking. He was about to fall but was quickly grabbed by Alec. When did he come? No matter. He was here. The next half an hour Malakai was in and out of consciousness on the sideline. He watched his agents battle Elijah's and Elias’ members helping. I
