My Wife Is A Secret Assassin

Samantha smiled, "Yes and unlike your wish I like a good person, I would never end up with that asshole Grim Reaper" she teased her father as in the past, he always teased her with Grim Reaper.

For the past two years, since she interacted with the Grim Reaper, Bill started troubling her so today she happily exclaimed as at some point it really scared her wondering if she would really end up with Grim Reaper.

'My sweet innocent daughter, I pity you' Bill thought to himself.

"You are right dear. I am glad you won't be ending up with Grim Reaper" Bill lied and Samantha was very happy.

She hung up on him and now she was felt very hungry as her mood brightened. She ordered food to pamper herself.

After some time, Chance was back home and he went to meet Samantha, she too was waiting for him.

"Hi" He awkwardly greeted her.

"Hey"

"Umm, earlier… I am sorry for my behaviour"

"It's okay, it didn't make any difference to me" She acted indifferent.

Chance smiled seeing her trying to act cool, "Glad it didn't. Were you serious when you promised to Carol about the camping tomorrow?"

"Yes"

"Wow" Chance looked surprised.

"You don't want me to come?"

"That's not the case. I was just a bit surprised that you agreed so soon, that's it."

"Hmm, it has been long since I went on a holiday, so I agreed. Which place are you taking them?"

Chance informed her of the place and gave her the basic information. Samantha appreciated his idea and she suggested a few things that they should carry and he noted them down.

He realized it was indeed a good idea to have someone who knows this place well accompany them.

"Sleep early, we need to leave early in the morning" Chance told her.

"Okay"

Chance that night slept in a good mood as he didn't expect everything would be back to normal between them so soon.

Next day, Chance woke up early and he checked if Samantha was awake and after ensuring that he came back to his home and was about to head to have a bath when he suddenly received a phone call that surprised him.

It was from his assassin team and they call him only if it is very urgent.

Chance knew the news was not good, they won't call at a time like this and so suddenly until it is something bad.

"What happened?" Chance directly came on point when he answered the phone.

"We tried to find Excalibur but we couldn't" The person from the other end informed him.

"You have been searching for how long? Two weeks?" Chance asked them.

"Yes"

"And you giving up so easily?" Chance was furious and shouted at the person he is talking to.

"It is not that. It is more difficult than we thought"

"He used to work in the same organization as us, how difficult can it be?"

"He went underground after some incident. He is trying his best to hide himself. We are not able to find him at all"

"So? You are giving up?" Chance directly asked this person.

"Yeah, and since you committed to Danger-Ace you would find him in a month, we are informing you in advance" The person was scared and hesitated but they told Chance the truth.

"Fine, I'll let you know what to do next" Chance too was now stressed. 

He assumed everything would be very smooth. He would give information on Excalibur to Danger-Ace and in return she will give him information on the people involved in Lucas' murder.

Now things were again falling apart.

Chance's another phone rang and it was David calling him.

"Hey"

"Oh, good you are awake, we just wanted to check" David informed him and added, "You would be coming to our place with Samantha in an hour, right?"

"Yes" Chance confirmed.

"Great, we would all be ready in an hour" David informed him and cut the call.

Chance realized David has no idea about his team not being able to find Excalibur, so he decided to talk to him later.

After freshening up, Chance wore a t-shirt and jeans, took the small bag he packed last night for the camping and locked his door.

Samantha was ready too, wearing a blue t-shirt and black jeans. She was wearing a small bag over both her shoulders and met him in the lobby.

"We would be now going to the hotel my friends are staying in and from there we would head to the campsite" Chance informed her and she nodded her head.

The two then drove to the hotel and on the way, Chance didn't utter one word and they were silent all the way. 

He was lost in his deep thoughts, worrying about Excalibur and was thinking of ways on how to find someone who does not want to be found.

Samantha was confused seeing Chance. He didn't smile at her even once since morning. He talked only when it was necessary and didn't initiate any conversation with her. 

It was very unlike him.

Chance was never like this before.

Samantha assumed it must be related to work and stayed calm.

When Chance and Samantha reached the hotel, they saw all his friends waiting for them outside.

"Was I late?" Chance asked them.

"No, you are on time" Mia said and she saw Samantha who got out of his car and smiled at her.

"Hello Samantha, nice to see you after so long" Mia greeted her.

"Yeah, same here" Samantha politely smiled at her.

Chance's other friends too greeted Samantha politely and tried to make her feel comfortable.

They all kept their feelings aside as they were the ones who invited her so they didn't intend to make her uncomfortable.

There was an additional car, Chance arranged for his friends.

Jack, David, Mia and Abigail sat in the new car and Carol went to sit in Chance's car, she explained, "That car is so packed with couples, I can't take any more PDA, so I'll come with you two" Carol cheerfully informed and sat in the front passenger seat.

Chance didn't react much to what Carol said as right now he didn't care about her childishness.

He walked towards the car and sat at the wheel. Samantha calmly sat in the backseat of the car.

Mia and Abigail looked at each other, worried.

The two cars then headed towards the camping site.

"I hope Carol is not planning to create trouble" David, who was driving the car asked Mia, who was sitting with Abigail on the backseat.

"No, she is not" Mia's words lacked confidence.

"Mia, Samantha is our guest and we invited her. I hope you won't create trouble for her. You guys are not some evil bitches like in those movies. So, please don't act like someone you are not." David warned her.

He was not really worried about Samantha; he was rather worried for these three girls.

They are all immature and they don't know who they were dealing with. But he knew who Samantha really is, so he had to warn them but since he couldn't tell the truth, he chose this way.

"We are not planning to do anything childish but I not sure about Carol" Mia informed him.

"We really didn't wish to support Carol but she was being so pitiful and Chance rejecting her like this. It made us feel bad for her" Abigail explained.

"But what can we do? We can't force Chance to love her. We just need to accept that Chance loves Samantha" Jack tried to put some sense into his girlfriend.

"Yeah, we know. But Carol loves him so much…" Abigail spoke but was interrupted by Jack.

"Then what about Chance? He doesn't have his own life and own preference? He has to live his life the way Carol wants?" Jack questioned her.

"Sorry" Abigail had no idea what else to say.

"Abi, Mia, please ensure, once we reach there, Carol does not do anything stupid" David instructed the two women.

They nodded their heads and looked at each other worriedly as they were in a very tight spot right now.

In the other car, Carol tried a lot to indulge Chance in a conversation but he replied to her in one or two syllables as he seemed lost in deep thoughts.

Samantha played music on her earphones and leaned back on the backrest and closed her eyes, enjoying the music, not bothering with Carol.

After a point, Carol felt bored in their presence and she just kept quiet the whole journey.

In an hour, they reached the camping site.

The place they reached was very beautiful with lush oak woodland forest, peppered with fresh pines and laced with meandering creeks. One can enjoy themselves in this haven by camping at either the Green Valley or on the Campgrounds in the camping location.

They all loved it.
