Xavier returned with a plate of rice and meat broth. Con sat down on the floor with his man and looked around as he took the food from Xavier. Just the scent of it made his stomach rumble more and he glared at Xavier as he noted the smile on the man's face. "Laugh at me and you'll find yourself six feet under." The smile on Xavier's face disappeared almost immediately and he cleared his throat as he handed his boss the spoon. "Breakfast is served, boss." Con sneered and tried not to throttle the other man. "While I'm eating, feel free to explain to me why I'm a thousand miles away from Glover city." Con heard Xavier gulp and he put a huge helping of the meat broth on the side of the plate of rice. In the military, they had eaten all sorts of foods. He could eat literally anything, his digestive system was that strong. Besides, the light brown meat broth smelled delicious. Con almost moaned when he brought a spoonful of rice to his mouth. The broth made it taste heavenly, just

Jake Caswell smiled at the lady in front of him."She'll do perfectly."The man at his side bowed and snapped his fingers twice. The men who stood behind the lady nodded and grabbed the strings of her dress.Though tears streamed down her face, she still turned around and with that action, the makeshift dress she was wearing came undone and pooled at her feet.Jake smiled even more at that and he rubbed his palms together.She was perfect. She was beautifully perfect.Hazel eyes and dark hair, pale white skin and an hourglass figure.An almost perfect mirror of Miranda Olsen, but of course different in her own way."I'll be paying for her in full. Get her ready and send her over to my place."Jake saw the man behind him nod again and knew it was settled. He would be getting his slave and he would use her in whatever way he wished.There was one exact way he planned to use her though. And it was as bait. He would use her as bait to lure that fool he had seen at the party with Jane o

"I'm sure it's him now."Jane nodded and couldn't help the smile that spread on her face.She wasn't really sure what the feelings she had for Con meant yet, but she couldn't just stand around and watch him get into danger because of Adeline."Sector 8 is controlled and run by one of the members of the Olsen family. I heard my uncle talking about it the day the building went up in flames. If Con was there, and if he was the one who set it up in flames, then it's only safe to assume that he did so on the orders of Miranda herself."Aubrey hmmmm'ed."You think he was being sent on missions by her?"Jane nodded."I personally don't feel there's anyone who can trap Con against his will. I've seen the way he behaves at work, he has the mind of a criminal and the heart of a god."Aubrey chuckled. She remembered when had locked the front door once and forgot to put the key beneath the rug where she usually kept it. After a long day at work, she finally remembered and rushed all the way home

The sound of cars and people made for a weird sort of symphony.Con let himself bask in the feeling of that before he finally sat down on one of the chairs by the side of the road.There was a stream flowing where the chair faced. Away from the road and backing whoever had been following him all this while.He would watch the water for a while, and if whoever was trailing him didn't come to him with a knife to his neck or an explanation, then he would walk over to them and get an answer the good ol' way.Con felt movement behind him and he smiled.He turned around to see a surprising sight.He wasn't being followed by a man, but by a woman who had a veil on her face. Her dress wasn't much too and it revealed flashes of her skin.He could already tell just by looking at her."You're the one who was in my room last night weren't you?"The veiled lady simply nodded her head slightly and walked around to come sit beside him.She was barefooted and Con found that strange.After she sat dow

"Why do you think it's turning that sickly green color?"Aubrey found herself panicking the more she held the pentagon shaped object in her hands. It had been pure black a few days ago, now it was this sickly green and it was scaring the shit out of her.Jane was behind her, with a question mark on her face and Con was still missing. The fact that she had found this object among his belongings didn't make her feel relaxed either.The sudden color change made her feel worried. What of this thing was connected to him somehow?Jane could see Aubrey was panicking, and not a mild sort of panic but evident and prominent panic. She was freaking out because the thing in her hands had changed from its deep black color to a sickly green one.All established information, but at the same time it was the sort of information that caused one to feel confused. To begin with, why did Con have something like this?She could swear she had seen this object somewhere, maybe somewhere in a book or in a n
