Innocent Love Of A Deadly Gangster

Steve had totally lost control as he hit Jia's face brutally. When he was still not done hitting her a man dressed in black entered the room and separated him from her. Not letting him hit her anymore. He whispered something in his ear which bought an evil smirk on his face as he stared disdainfully at the girl.

....................

After leaving the ward with a satisfied smile on his face Steve entered the dressing room. Jessica was seated on a stool as a nurse bandaged her wound. It was a slightly deep wound but will not leave any scar. The doctor instructed them to get a tetanus injection to prevent any infection. On the mention of an injection Jessica's face already paled.

While she was taken to the doctor she held onto Steve's sleeve as she made pitiful and cute expressions. But this did not melt the demon's heart.

Jessica was very afraid of injections. Even a high-profile bomb did not scare her but an injection was enough to bring tears to her eyes. It was not a childhood phobia. She had received a long-term treatment and had to take at least twenty injections a day, which naturally resulted in her hatred for it.

The fear was clearly visible on Jessica's face as she entered the doctor's room. She gulped as she saw the doctor pulling out a syringe. Her fear increased as a past memory crossed her mind. She turned numb and her finger-nails dug into Steve's arm.

Steve seemed to feel pain in his arm and looked up at Jessica who was as white as a sheet. He patted on her clenched hands and gave her a reassuring smile. This eased Jessica a bit as she sat on the stool. The doctor walked up to her with the syringe and gestured her to stretch out her hand. She stared at the syringe as if she could make it burst out.

Steve held her hand and moved it in front of the nurse with the doctor. His intentions were clear- he did not want anyone to touch his girl. The nurse came forward and took the injection from the doctor. She bends down to hold Jessica's hand but to her surprise, the woman got up abruptly and rushed out of the room.

Jessica ran out of the room and stood in front of the window in the corridor. She was taking in short breaths and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. Her body was trembling as if she had just received a thunderbolt shock.

Steve had also rushed out to check on Jessica and he felt something to be fishy as he saw her frighten up like a soaked cat. He was not sure what had happened to her in the past but now he knew it was something huge. Someone could not get fear from a minor thing in just a year or two, it would take at least five years for someone to be this afraid of anything. Before heading towards her Steve took out his phone and messaged his closest friend to investigate her past.

Jessica was still panicked when she felt someone behind her. She turned around and saw him from her misty gaze. The tears that were at the bay were now threatening to fall. She instantly hugged the person in front of her.

Steve was dumbstruck but still managed to get back to bee calm. He gently patted the back of Jessica. He could feel her tears on his shirt and he was now, even more, determined to know her past and the things that could scare her to this extent and he was sure that the person he had asked would be able to get his hands on some information.

Jessica and Steve were walking down the street. They had just eaten dinner and decided to walk home. Jessica was finally able to escape her fear, the injection, after pleading to Steve and to her surprise he agreed.

They walking beside each other on the empty streets. There was bot much traffic as the place was far from the city center.

"Uh... Can I ask you something?" Jessica spoke as she stole a glance at Steve. He looked at her and stopped in his tracks before replying with a 'hmmm'

"Do you think I am weak? Like I have cried in front of you many times. Will you still want to marry me after knowing that I am a weakling?" Her voice was innocent as if asking him to trust her and dote in her. Steve stopped again and turned to her. He narrowed his eyes and moved close to her ears before speaking, "you are destined to be with me... and I know you are not weak. Even if you are don't worry I will protect you from all the injection monsters..." He let out a soft chuckle as he stood in front of the embarrassed one.
