In Love With My Disguised Bodyguard

His breath on my face felt warm, sweat dripping down my face, my hands struggling "Please leave me!!" I yelled, my eyes welling up with tears, my wrists wrangled by his adult arms, his grip gaining control, I could hear my mother's wailing "Mother" I called out, reaching for her hand.

"You are weak, just like your father!" He cackled, the dark figure said, but he wasn't faceless this time, his scrawny smile pushing my fears forward, his arms pulling me away from my mother's reach.

"Skai!!" I heard my mother scream for me, her eyes welling up with tears "Please she's all I have" I heard her wail, Tilard, my uncle had no ears but wouldn't listen as he whisked me away.

"You'll make a fine slut" he said smiling mischievously, the last I heard before it was all pitch black and my own voice.

Adjusting my sheets, opening my eyes to see the room still, ragged clothes on the floor, the spilled cans of vidkon beer sprawled on the floor, the cold sweats on my face, I used my hands, trying so hard to wipe them away.

"It's the same dream, all over again" I muttered to myself as I looked at the mirror in the washroom, my eyes gaining dark circles, looking down to my chest, my body bare.

"Roll call!" I heard the matron yell, his voice as hoarse as ever.

It was time to get ready, dashing out quickly, taking my black uniform, the black shirt and suit which was always the perfect combo, making me invisible to others, yet I stood out, coming out first in the agency was an amazing feat, one to never be traded for money or anything else.

Taking the binder to my chest, wrapping it tightly. It's been two years in the agency and everyone calls me by name Enzo, the swift killer.

I looked in the mirror, my hair getting the best of itself, growing longer, immersed in my reflection, Suddenly there was a loud banging on the door, awakening my mind, causing me to stop.

"Enzo, we're gonna be late" he said from outside, it was Bruno, my colleague and maybe mentee.

"Be out in a second" I answered, my deepened voice echoed.

The moment I wore the suit, I felt whole again, the female body I owned brought me nothing but pain and futile struggle, now I'm on my path to freedom.

"Today, you'll be dispersed to companies in need of bodyguards, you will be well behaved and show them what you're made of!" Commander said in a hoarse tone.

"Sir, yes sir!" We answered in unison.

"Where are you deployed to?" Bruno asked, elated, his calm notion made me smirk "The BER corp" I answered, sliding my hands into my pocket.

"That's so you, great bodyguard, big company" he added, slightly punching my arm.

"Thanks, what about you?" I asked, rolling the sleeves of my suit.

"Well..I'm going back home, to see my family" he said, his eyes softening.

"Goodluck then" I said, patting his back, proceeding to walk away.

"I'll see you when I see you" he said from behind, too focused to look back, I waved slightly, walking to my deployed station.

Taking a cab straight to the company was the straightest I'd been all my life at the agency, from code red jobs of saving hostages to silver coat badges jobs of rescuing important people from the clutches of kidnappers, I had never used the front door.

Yet, here I am, looking at what seems to be a skyscraper with the large words written 'BER CORP', I adjusted my suit, my sleeves rolled to my elbow.

"Do you have an appointment?" The lady with a skimmish body feature asked from behind the counter.

"Yes, with Juliano Bernard" I said calmly, her eyes looked up to me, watching me as though I didn't belong in their high end company or have the right to have access to her employer.

"Name, please?" she asked, looking down at the computer that sat right in front of her.

"Enzo" I answered casually, she furrowed her brows at me.

"No last name?" She asked again "No, no last name" I answered, not giving her the benefit of doubt that I'd care if she wouldn't let me in.

"Sir, I can't check your your appointment without a last name" she said, her voice becoming unsettling.

"And I don't have a last name" I said, almost ticking her off. "I can't let you in then" she said, angrily.

"But I'm going in" I answered and without hesitation two men stood behind me, I could feel their strength from behind, their towering bodies standing firm.

"Sir, you have to leave!" She ordered "Take him away" she said, her voice in a high pitch, attracting the attention of others.

"Okay, okay, but I think you should first deal with those shady men who just walked in" I said, pointing to the two men in suits who casually walked in by flashing a card at the entrance.

"They're employees" the lady scoffed "No they're not, they don't have the employee tag like everyone else, they seem professional and all but by seem to be going to the wrong elevator, the CEOs personal elevator" I pointed out calmly.

"Oh my God, get them!" She yelled, realising what had just happened, it was too late for them, the men were already taking the private elevator.

"I'll handle it" I said calmly, rushing after them, using the stairs. 'My first day on the job and it's already hectic' I thought to myself as I raced up the flight of stairs.

The huge men who had once threatened to throw me out, following right after.

"You both, intercept them using the other elevator, I'll take it from here" I said, they turned to each other.

"Are you seriously thinking right now?!" I said, shaking my head at them.

"Okay sir" they said in unison running back to the elevator.

It wasn't my first time on a chase, I ran through, reaching the fifth floor, the CEO's office hallway.

The two professionally dressed men seemed to have caught on, the moment the elevator door opened, they bolted out.

"Stop right there!" One of the security guards warned.

Intercepting their little run, I rushed at them, taking a baton to his head and hitting the other with an elbow slam, I could see his face topple.

They had been incapacitated, slightly.

"Get them out of here" I ordered, rolling my sleeves back up, just then a lady stepped out of the room.

"What's going on here" she said, seeing two grown men sprawled on the floor on a Monday morning is not the usual sight to behold.

"Hello, my name's Enzo, I'm the CEO's new bodyguard" I said, extending my hand for a handshake introducing myself calmly to frightened dark haired lady.
