DARKNESS IN HER HEART
Chapter 19- Don't Look Back

**FLASH BACK**
His almost toothless grin was so adorable as Drake looked up toward his father, extending his arms as if to encourage Damien to pick him up as he usually did. His father sighed once before he went to take the small child into his arms, walking around as he continued to think to himself before little Drake interupted his train of thought.
"Daddy, where's Mommy?" His deep red eyes curiously searched into Damien's, the small child's hands fisted against the material of his shirt.
"I don't know Drake. I haven't seen her since last night. I suppose she was called in for another mission. You know how that goes." Drake nodded in response, holding back a sigh from his little lips.
(Mommy's always gone away from home. Why isn't she ever home like Daddy is? Hmph, it's NOT fair.)
Implying that the child wanted down, Damien released him from his arms, soon after his radio playing the voice of Vincent on the other line, confirming what he said was true, she was on another mission....
**END OF FLASH BACK**
Neveah tried her best not to let a tear fall from her eyes as she replayed the image of Drake's loving face that night in the forest beneath the night sky. Her hopes had gotten a little high, she knew this, but that didn't stop her from thinking they could never be caught and always be secret lovers.
She sighed, shaking her head back and forth, knowing she could never win as she stood up, ready to leave on the mission she was just assigned from Vincent a few moments ago.
Vincent rambled on with what couldn't go wrong in this particular mission, Neveah rolling her eyes about ever 5 minutes as he THEN would yell at her for that.
"I'm serious Miss Heartlily, you CAN'T screw this up. I'm depending on you.", Vincent lectured, Neveah nodding once again for the 100th time in the last 20 minutes.
"Okay, okay, I understand. I won't screw up my shot at this. I'll do my personal best, all right?"
"Good, now the main objective is to retrieve those files I told you about it in Dagger's office. She's the secretary of Mr. O'Conner and knowing her, she keeps a file on everything he does and says. In order to9 figure out what the hell he is talking about, I'm expecting those files in one piece, along with you. All right?"
"Yes yes, I get it, can I go now?"
"Your jet is waiting outside the door to the left. Remember you're limited when it comes to time. He should be back in a day or so and Dagger rarely ever leaves her office unless it's her lunch break so you'd better hurry up." She nodded in response and quickly left to go on her mission, Vincent then calling Drake down to his office to send him out on a different errand.
