The Assassin's Weakness: The Confradia Assassins 1

I know I should sleep, but all I can do is lie here and gaze at the beautiful slumbering beauty next to me. She looks so innocent lying on her side with her head on her folded hands. The covers are around her narrow waist, displaying her smooth back, and her dark brown hair falls carelessly down her fragile shoulders. A pouty nipple peeks through her hair, making my mouth water for a taste. Needing to touch her, I rise up on one arm and slide my hands caressingly across her hair and shoulder. I don't know what to do. She told me that she loved me, but what do I know of love. Me, a street kid with no family and no past to speak off. However, I couldn't resist the kernel of happiness that kindled when she said the words. If any other woman had said that to me, I would have turned around and walked out the door.
