Sweet Money Love ??

3 years ago, Mike's POV

"You're actually getting promoted, again?" Frances says as he looks at the email on my phone. "I didn't know you can be promoted more. I thought being second in command of the Weapons division was the highest tier."

"Everyone thought that, Muses are full of surprises." I have been working for that family for 4 years now, I was 20 when I joined. From being a rookie, to a sniper, to second in command of a division. I have asked almost everyone in the division do they know what I could be getting promoted to. Nobody knows.

"Plot twist you're being promoted to your death." Frances says eating a fry, I really need to stop taking him to lunch.

"Ha, you're so funny." I roll my eyes

"I'm just saying, you have been too good with your aim. You have good pay and status, why are you still single Carlson?" He looks me up and down.

"Because, I'm in love with someone that might not love me." Frances is well built for being an omega, I always found it strange. I have always loved Frances since the day we met. I just don't got the balls to tell him though.

"That person might find you ugly. Like me." He says with a smile.

"I am really handsome thank you."

"Yep let your ego keep rising, one day it'll be shot down."

As much as I love him he's a pain in the ass still. Now that I really think about it. Who the hell is going to be my new boss. I look back at the email and there's no other information at all. I'm just to report to Mr. Kayden tomorrow and that's it.

"Mike, just promise me that this promotion isn't going to make you think... you're better than me." Frances says with a hint of annoyance in his voice.

"When have I ever done that?"

"I'm just letting you know." He flicks a fry at me.

As I walked into Kayden's office armed guards stand behind him. I watched him as he lit his cigarette and took a drag. He motions me to sit which I did.

"Congratulations Carlson, you're being promoted once again. This will be as far as you can go. You have one task to do in your new position. Take a guess what that is."

He leaned back in his chair taking another drag of his cigarette. I stayed silent for a moment not knowing what to say before pushing something out. "To kill? It's my specialty sir, so I have no other guesses."

He puts out his cigarette before sitting up. "Close enough, there's someone I need you to protect under any means necessary. You'll be housed by her and she'll be your new boss. You can't tell her that you are to protect her. She's hot tempered and will end up killing you if she wants to."

I frown at the last bit of information. Kill me? "Wait who am I even working with here? Because that sounds outrageous that I can get killed."'

"Well..."

Suddenly someone burst through the door. It was a girl with mess black hair, pale skin, green eyes, very skinny, and the lack of respect for wearing pajamas. I looked back at Mr. Kayden and see the guards behind him holding up their rifles.

"Shoot me figli di puttana! You'll be doing me a favor anyways." She storms into the room going up to Mr. Kayden's desk. She slams her fist into the desk. "It's 8 in the morning, you called me here for what? Next time I'll show up in something way worse than just my pajamas. Tutto sarà mostrato!"

Pure Italian, I have no idea what she said and don't plan on learning it. Mr. Kayden doesn't seem even care that she just burst in here. "Sit down, I don't have time for your childish behavior Scarlett." He says calmly.

Scarlett sits down near me mumbling. "I got it from you anyways."

I don't know what I'm doing
