Chapter 42 - Deal

Just then his door opened thinking it was Aiden Noah didn't lift his head and continued to read his documents.

Meanwhile in Noah's bedroom Ivy woke and sluggishly got out of bed not recognising the environment she got up to look around then she saw it. She thought she was still dreaming but she rubbed her eyes and saw a man pointing a gun at her lover.​​

Back in the office Noah looked up as Aiden was still silent. Seeing a cleaners outfit he frowned and he looked up and saw Governor Archer May holding a gun up at his head with a smirk on his face.

"What …surprised? I cant wait to get you back for my son and myself. You took mine and his life so I'll just take yours."

Suddenly there was a click sound and Noah watched Ivy rush out and hit Governor Archer on the head with a large bottle of whiskey. The Governor fell to the ground and was disoriented for a moment so Noah took the opportunity to grab his gun from his desk safe. Noah pulled Ivy behind him and hit Governor Archer May with the back of his gun, blood leaked from his head wound and bits of glass where embedded in the Governors face.

The door burst open and men rushed in. Ivy didn't know if they were Noah's men or not so she stood straight in front of Noah arms spread wide to protect his body. Noah seeing this felt helpless at his lovers actions. He recognised his own men and comforted Ivy. He was happy she was brave and protective of him.

Ivy swayed, she was so scared and her adrenaline had run out so she collapsed again into Noah's waiting arms. Noah brought her back to bed and laid her down and closed the door.

Inspector Anthony Jaxson came in with Aiden at that moment. Noah's guards had Governor Archer May pinned down to the ground.

"Well Governor we meet again." The Inspector greeted the Governor.

"You Bastard Adler I'm not done with you. Inspector hurry and take me back to jail." Governor Archer May put out his hands as he waited for the handcuffs.

"What do you think Mr Adler?". Inspector Anthony looked at Noah. Noah had never let anyone go that threatened his life.

Noah raised his gun and the Inspector put out his hand to stop him.

"Wait use my gun then we can say he resisted the arrest."

Noah took Inspector Anthony Jaxson's gun and fired five shots into the Governor, though it did not calm his thirst for blood at least this scum would not reappear now.

"Take him away, Aiden tidy up."

Noah then strode into his office bedroom and sat beside Ivy, he caressed her face. She had went beyond his imagination and had put herself in front of his men's guns and had protected him from that scum Governor. He smiled a rare smile that was reserved for her alone and lay in the bed beside her.

Ivy stirred at the sudden heat beside her, finding her favourite human pillow she snuggled in and then sat up abruptly remembering what had happened earlier. Sitting up she reached her arms up and checked his face and body. Seeing no injuries she relaxed.

"Cold?."

"A bit."

Noah pulled Ivy onto his body. "Use me."

Ivy didn't like to sit on his lap but she couldn't deny her need for her favourite human pillow right now. She lay with her head on his chest listening to his steady heart beat. She traced circles on his chest unsure weather to say what she was about to. Their relationship worked because she knew who Noah was but didn't ask questions. She bit her lip then decided to go for it anyway.

"Noah."

"Hmmm." Noah replied while playing with her hair.

"Don't die... or else I'll have to find you in hell and drag your ass back."

Noah smiled and kissed her head as she lay on his chest, he was very happy as this was as close as a confession he was able to get from Ivy.

"Deal."
