"Be the wind that waits for me

To collect all the broken pieces

And I'll let you in

I'll let you be

The storm inside me

Our breaths inter mixed with each other. I was intoxicated with his lips so close to mine. Those perfect cupid's bow shaped lips. His nose was rubbing my cheek. Any moment his lips could touch mine.

I lost the track of time. My eyes were half shut. My heart was throbbing and I could hear my heartbeat.

Any moment I could crash in front of him.

All of a sudden his phone started ringing.

I was snapped back to reality.

"Fuck!" He cursed under his breath and reached for his phone lying on the bed.

"Yes ma'am!" He said.

As he was talking to his boss I snuck out of his room slowly.

I had realized that I was too weak for that moment. I was panting like crazy.

I hurried towards the door.

As I reached for the door handle I saw him coming to stand in his bedroom door frame.

"Tasha!" He took my name very softly.

But I needed to leave.

With my heart racing a million miles I closed his apartment door behind me and ran to my apartment's door. I ran into my bedroom and locked my bedroom door and fell face first on the mattress.

I was feeling kind of embarrassed, shy and excited. It was weird for me as I hadn't felt anything like that before.

I closed my eyes and drifted into sleep not knowing that he was watching me from the other side.

■■■■■■

August watched her sleep.

His piercing blue orbs were ignited with the blue light of his laptop's screen.

"Pretty little Angel." He chuckled and closed his laptop.

■■■■■■

The morning birds were chirping on my window.

The warmth of the sunlight filtering through the thin curtain before being absorbed into my skin.

I yawned and stretched before climbing out of bed and heading to the bathroom.

I threw on my floral patterned short skirt and a simple shirt.

Man! I was feeling hungry.

I went into the kitchen to make pancakes for myself when I heard the doorbell.

■■■■■■

August's phone rang at midnight.

It was Sloane on the other side.

"Walker! I have something to tell you. Ethan Hunt lost the plutonium in Belgium. Now! I need you to go with him to Paris to get it." She explained.

"Ok! When do you need me to go?" He asked while sitting on the bed.

"I will meet you in the office. Bring Miss White with you too. The one who was interviewed. You told me you know her. She needs to be recruited." Sloane said.

"Ok! Sure I will!" He said.

The call was hung up from the other side.

"Finally!" August whispered to himself. A smirk appeared on his face.

■■■■■■

The doorbell rang and I hurried towards it and peeped through the hole.

It was him.

My heart started to race again seeing him standing at the door. I bit my lip in confusion and opened the door.

"Hello August! How are you?" I greeted him trying to be composed as best as I can.

I left the door open for him and walked across the kitchen counter.

"Missing your--" he teased while sitting on the couch.

"What?" My face turned towards him.

"Coffee." He raised an eyebrow. "I am here for your coffee. It was really good." He said with his eyes glued on me.

I was wearing a floral short dress. My skirt showed my silky thighs below the shelf of the counter as I walked across the kitchen trying to find something.

I avoided bending as it was the only way to not provoke him more. I opened the door of a cabinet and started searching for the flour. Despite my height I couldn't reach the top shelf of the cabinet while standing on my tippie toes.

My skirt went up a bit and it alarmed me but I had to find what I was looking for when my breath got stuck in my throat.

He was standing right behind me. His whole body pressed against mine.

From my thighs to my back I could feel the heat leaving his body and being absorbed into mine.

My breath started to shallow down and become fast. His hot breath fanned my long hairs and filtered through them touching my neck.

He pushed me towards the shelf a lil bit more and I could feel his desire on my lower back.

My hands were still above my head and holding onto the top shelf when his large hands wrapped around my wrists giving them a gentle squeeze and bringing them down again.

"I guess you were looking for this." I heard his husky voice in my ear and it gave me shivers down my spine.

He brought the jar full of floor in front of me.

I was still silent, still unable to utter a word.

Holding onto my shoulders he turned me around gently.

I was unable to stand. It was like lightening pulses were running through my whole body. Twinges and tingling were felt between my legs making me unable to stand.

"Look at me." He ordered still holding onto my shoulders.

"I can't." I whispered while looking down. I had lost the courage to look into his eyes.

He lift my chin up and made me look into his eyes.

"August I cannot-- my words cut short with his lips to mine. He took my lips into his like a thirsty beast sucking the sweetness of my cherry lip balm.

His large hands grabbing onto my waist and lifting me up to sit while he stood between my thighs never leaving my lips.

His tongue entered my mouth sucking every bit of it with his one hand grabbing on my long hairs and the other stroking my thigh.

He squeezed my thigh and bit my lip causing me to moan under his kiss.

I was getting breathless and holding onto him because I could break any moment into him. He wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me more close to him. Our bodies touching each other.

He held my chin and traced wet kisses on my face, my cheeks, my earlobe, my jawline all the way to my neck was invaded. I moaned when he sucked the delicate skin of my neck giving me a hickey.

He pulled down my shoulder strap and kissed my shoulder and my chest.

I was about to pass out with the intoxication he gave me.

"August!" I whispered.

"Yes babe!" He whispered holding me into an embrace.

"I cannot do it anymore. You are so powerful." I whispered into his chest holding onto him and inhaling his musky scent.

He let me go and leaned against the kitchen counter looking straight at the masterpiece he created.

My hairs, my dress all were in a hot mess. I was breathing heavily.

"I am so weak. Your love made me weak and I am getting weaker with each passing day." He took a sigh and continued..

"Do you know who I am? Who I was and what I do?" He asked.

"No." I replied.

"I am a monster who works for CIA, a hammer as they call me. I am an assassin who has lost count of his victims. They hire me to kill and I kill be it any business tycoon, politician or a rich person. Their blood is on my hands." He replied.

I climbed down the shelf slowly and walked towards him standing close to him.

"Even if there is more to it. No matter what you do or what you did in the past. No matter what is your job is..." I placed my hand on his perfect face.

"To me you are you. My saviour and my guardian angel. A man who stood by me at my worst. To me you will always be this man." I said with tears filled in my eyes.

"I don't know how to love Tasha. I have never loved anyone in my entire life. I have never been afraid but now I am. For you. I have many enemies and this thought of losing you or getting you harmed bothers me a lot." He said while holding my hand.

"Love makes you strong not weak. Stronger than ever for the person you love. And I am stronger than before." I smiled and said to him.

"I am glad to hear this and you are going with me to the office today." He chuckled.

"What? Are you kidding me?" I asked.

"Absolutely not." He replied.

"You made my dream come true August." I exclaimed with joy and tears of happiness in my eyes.

"And I deserve the best coffee in the world." He replied.

"Anything you say sir." I chuckled.

"Anything?" He smiled sheepishly.

"You name it." I challenged him.

"I guess it's not the right time. I am going to change and I need my coffee and those pancakes you were planning to make when I come back. Also you should be ready for work." He said and winked at me playfully before closing the door leaving for his apartment.

It was all like a dream but reality. I hurried towards the kitchen.

God! I was so excited to work with him.
