Chapter 12: CHAPTER 11

"I think I have seen that men before."

Zeke confused and he wants to know if Mr. Lance have a relation with Danica before.

"Where?" He asked her.

"He had worked with my Dad before.." Danica said looking away from his gaze when Zeke narrowed his eyebrows.

"What?" Zeke questioned while Danica slightly moved on her seat.

"Yes that was him. I r-remember. Mom, once sent me to get Dad back from the club since he was very drunk. He was celebrating something that day.. And that man was with him. I don't think of him as a very good person. That's why l was asking if you were working with him."

Danica looked up at him hoping for him to tell her that he isn't working with him.

"What's makes you think I am a good person?" He scoffed then looked back at the front eating his food.

"He uhmm. I think he's not just good. I t-trust you to not b-be like him." She said.

Zeke noticed her shivering not wanting to talk, he silently ate his foods while Danica looked at him.

Before Danica finishing her food quickly. She knew he didn't want to talk but she wished he would at least tell her. She need assurance.

Zeke just walked to their bedroom while she quickly washed their dishes before following him to the bedroom as well. She sat on the bed, feeding their parrot. Zeke stood in the balcony viewing the outside of their mansion.

Though he wasn't empty headed. His head was filled with the thoughts of Danica knowing Mr. Lance and ask himself of why did Danica's brother worked with someone like him, a mafia?

What could have Mr. Lance done to make feel Danica that he is a bad person? Clearing his throat he slightly turned around to see Danica smiling in front of their parrot.

"D-Danica." He call it's name, stepping inside. He took his seat on the bed.

"Daddy Zeke!" The parrot said going to his side.

Zeke slightly caressed the parrot's head making Danica smile.

"Yes.?" She looked at him so innocently.

Zeke look away awkwardly.

"Why was your brother working with Mr. Lance?" He ask and noticed Danica looked away this time.

"I don't know." She answer slowly. He looked at her, sensing some thing was wrong with her.

"Then why did you say he was a bad person?" he ask again.

"Uhmm..He just– I don't really feel c-comfortable in his presence." She respond stuttering.

"Did he do something?" Zeke immediately asked again.

Danica moved herself uncomfortably. "Back when uhmm. I was sent to pick up my Dad. He tried t-to touch me inappropriately." Danica says the truth while Zeke looked at her shocked.

"He t-touched you? Did he–" Zeke clenched his jaw.

Danica quickly looked up at him scared he might get angry with her.

"But I s-swear nothing else happened. Some people helped me..Please t-tust me. I'm sorry. Nothing–"

Zeke could now feel that she was scared. Scared that he might not want her knowing someone has touched her before him. He felt bad that his wife thought of him like that.

"That's fine. None of it is your fault. You don't need to feel tensed about it, alright?" Zeke assured, looking right at her, "Did your brother do something?" He asked her.

Danica felt her eyes getting teary as she sighed shakily, struggling not to cry.

"H-he actually p-planned it." She answered closing her eyes embarrassingly, "He was very mad at me when I didn't let that man to t-touch me. H-He stopped working with Dad after I didn't let that man he wants to touch m-me." She whispered the last part was she looked down and started wiping the tears fell from her eyes.

Zeke clench when he knew and saw her like that. Though he didn't really know how to comfort her. Zeke slightly moved the parrot to her as he cleared his throat.

Zeke

"I love you. I love you." The parrot repeatedly said and it looked at Danica while tilting his head side to side, "I love you." It says again.

Danica sniffled slightly, she moved her eyes towards the parrot. She started smiling while caressing the parrots head.

"Stop feeling bad because of your family… I-I mean you have me n-now." He cleared his throat, embarrassed because of his attempt to comfort her, "I was working with him but I'll break off the deal so you don't need to worry about him being near. I'll protect you at any cost. Don't worry.."

Danica just looked at him as if she didn't expect him to say such things.

"I trust you, Z-Zeke." She said vaguely smiling, Zeke nodded his head before clearing his throat once again, "It's late. I'm gonna sleep."

Danica nodded her head and she sent the parrot back in his cage and laid down as well in the bed after turning off all the lights.

"Goodnight." She softly said, receiving no reply as usual. But she didn't mind, she was used to it.

Zeke as usual was hesitant to reply as he once again heard her sigh and ruffle the blanket. He was surprised at how he becomes soft with her. He had seen her putting the blanket over him every night, he had been conscious enough to feel it all.

He couldn't really sleep well being a Mafia. He never knew when his enemies could attack him. He always had to be alerted. His mind had a lot of thoughts as he thought about his enemies and the danger he had put Danica in and the fact that Danica's brother had worked with a Mafia wasn't help at all.

He was scared that he might reveal information knowing what kind of person he is. Since when the fuck was he ever into this?' He questioned to himself. He sighed in frustration.

Mr. Lance had worked with Danica's brother. Of course it was impossible for him to ever make a deal with him. He could never trust him to stay true. He could be fed money and he'll be sold. There was no way he was going to work with him knowing Danica's brother know everything about Mr. Lance. Working with Mr. Lance would mean telling him about his company which he would never do.

Why would he take such a risk? A risk so big that can turn his world upside down by ruining all his hard work. He sighed closing his eyes, wanting his brain to shut down which soon did as he fell asleep.
