MARCUS
Shelby's eyes flickered open into a strange unrecognized room. She looked around for something familiar only for her gaze to land on a familiar form and lock. It was her stalker. He was sleeping on a chair beside her bed. She stared intrigued at his slumbering face. He looked comically cute with his face drooping down to the side and his black-framed glasses hanging crookedly on his face.
An amused smile on her face. She tried to strengthen up only to let out a loud wince of discomfort when her tummy protested in pain.

She was going to make sure that his killer pays.

" You are awake, " Marcus stated adjusting his glasses back to h

The look in her eyes matches the exact ones popping out from the balls of her fellow assassin. Their shocked gazes held each other and she watched as the sword hanging in the air slowly slipped off the man's hand and then his body followed and crashed to the ground in a heavy thud. His fall revealed Marcus who stood behind him trembling from head to toe, his eyes wide as an ocean frozen in shock while his shaking limbs clutched tightly the now red-stained sword that was once inside the dead assassin body. Marcus couldn't believe what he had done. He just killed somebody, he thought his whole body drenched in fear. He wasn't a killer.

Poison locked eyes with the blonde for seconds, heightening the tension between them before he turned to go to his kitchen. She bent into her fridge to bring out two bottles of beer one for herself and the other for her guest and when she turned around, the blonde was standing directly behind her putting within hair breath of each other." Guess you don't want that beer, huh?
