Assassin falls in love with his target's daughter

By Ibad MateenPublished 3 years ago 4 min read

Alex had always known that he was different. From a young age, he had shown a natural talent for fighting and had a natural instinct for survival. It wasn't until he was older that he learned the truth about his father's profession. His father was an assassin, one of the best in the business. He had trained Alex from a young age, teaching him the skills he would need to survive in their dangerous world.

As he grew older, Alex's reputation grew. He was known as one of the best assassins in the world, and he had never failed a mission. His skills were unmatched, and he was in high demand. He had become rich and successful, but he was never truly happy. He felt like he was living a lie, and he longed for something more.

That all changed when he was hired to assassinate Mr. Johnson, the world's richest businessman. Alex was intrigued by the challenge, but he was also struck by Mr. Johnson's daughter, Emma. When he stumbled upon a photo of her, he was immediately captivated by her beauty.

Despite his feelings, Alex knew that he had to go through with the mission. He couldn't let his emotions get in the way of his duty. He began to plan his approach, studying the security measures and scouting out the location. He was meticulous in his preparation, knowing that any mistake could cost him his life.

On the day of the mission, Alex made his way to Mr. Johnson's office. As he approached the building, he saw Emma walking towards him. He was taken aback by her presence and found himself frozen in place. Emma noticed him and asked if he was lost. Alex quickly regained his composure and told her that he was just passing through.

As Alex made his way to Mr. Johnson's office, he found himself struggling with his conscience. He couldn't bear the thought of hurting Emma's father, but he also couldn't walk away from the job. When he entered the office, he pulled out his gun and aimed it at Mr. Johnson.

Just as he was about to pull the trigger, Emma burst into the room. She had followed Alex and had overheard everything. She pleaded with him not to go through with the mission, and she begged him to leave with her. Alex was torn between his duty and his feelings for Emma.

In the end, he made a decision that would change his life forever. He put away his gun and left with Emma. The two of them fled the country together, leaving behind Alex's life as an assassin. They started a new life together, free from the dangers of the past.

For the first time in his life, Alex felt truly happy. He had found someone who understood him, someone who loved him for who he was, not for what he could do. Emma brought out the best in him, and he was grateful for every moment that they spent together.

Alex and Emma spent the next few years traveling the world, enjoying each other's company and exploring new places. They visited exotic destinations, tasted local cuisines, and learned about different cultures. They were completely in love and couldn't imagine their lives without each other.

However, as much as they tried to leave their past behind, it was always there, lurking in the background. Alex couldn't forget the life he had left behind, and he was haunted by the memories of the people he had killed. He couldn't escape the feeling that he was somehow responsible for their deaths.

Emma noticed that Alex was becoming more and more distant, and she could sense that something was troubling him. She tried to talk to him about it, but he always brushed her off. Emma knew that something was wrong, but she didn't know how to help him.

One day, while they were on a beach in Bali, Alex finally opened up to her. He told her about his life as an assassin, about the people he had killed, and about the guilt that he carried with him. Emma listened to him, and she could see the pain and sorrow in his eyes.

She took his hand and told him that she loved him, no matter what had happened in his past. She told him that she was there for him, and that they would face whatever came their way together. Alex was touched by her words, and he knew that he had made the right decision in leaving his old life behind.

As they walked along the beach, they stumbled upon an old temple. It was abandoned, and it looked like it hadn't been used in years. Alex felt drawn to the temple, and he suggested that they explore it.

They made their way inside, and they were surprised to find an old man sitting there. He looked up at them and smiled, welcoming them to the temple. He told them that he was a monk, and that he had been living there for many years.

Alex and Emma were fascinated by the old man, and they spent the next few hours talking to him. The monk listened patiently as Alex told him about his past, and he offered words of wisdom and comfort. Emma felt a sense of peace in the temple, and she knew that it was a special place.

As they were getting ready to leave, the monk gave them a small stone. He told them that it was a symbol of their love, and that it would bring them good luck and protection. Alex and Emma thanked the monk and left the temple, feeling renewed and refreshed.

They returned to their hotel room, and Alex took out the stone. As he held it in his hand, he felt a sense of calm wash over him. He knew that he had made the right decision in leaving his old life behind, and he knew that he had Emma by his side to help him through whatever challenges lay ahead.
