Miranda couldn't quite look Con in the eye again and Con found it amusing.He could tell the lady probably didn't. She still seemed shocked, and maybe shy.Con wiped the smile off his face and wore a more serious expression.He had given her the flash drive, not to make her feel ashamed or trashy, but to make her find peace within herself.Whoever put that hologram in the toilet of the eighth floor was probably sick in the head, and they would have their name on his enemy list when he finally got it, and he would get it.He would, but for now they still had to get the three cards and two artifacts.He had only retrieved the map to getting the sigil and the scepter. Miranda would have to still get them from wherever they were being kept, and since she didn't seem inclined to tell him the whereabouts of said artifacts, he would assume she already had that sorted out and she didn't need his help.She needed his help in getting the cards though, and to do that she would have to look at
Con could tell he was off to a bad start."Man slut.""Dick whore.""Ass kisser.""Cock for hire.""The shameless male escort?"Ironically, he actually felt a bit impressed by how creative social media netizens were. They all had one thing or the other to say about him.Multiple images and photoshopped memes of him in various stages of ecstasy had popped up.The internet had turned him into a man whore."A cheap prostitute with the face of an Adonis but the sexual manners of a brothel sex."Who still used brothels in this time and age?Some women had accused him of trying to lure them into bed and then acting out when they rejected him.Them.... reject him?A chuckle managed to escape his lips as he thought of that and Con simply smiled as he shook his head.'"Is this what you all were so afraid of me seeing?"Miranda and Xavier stood dumbfounded on one side of the room.Miranda more so.She had been scared last night when she heard that the sector 8 building was on fire. Her brother
Jane stared at the Nurain building. The fact that she was staring at a place that was like a second home to her was disturbing. Nurain was almost like a family house to her now, she always felt happy whenever she saw the high rise building looming in front of her, and she felt even happier going into the building and making sure everything was fine as she went about her work. This place was a place of liberation to her. She had been happy working here, but had something changed in the past few days. To be more specific, someone had changed and Jane took a deep breath as she started walking towards the building. It was undeniable now. Adeline wasn't the lady everyone thought she was. Not at all. It wouldn't be easy adjusting to this new reality, but she would find a way to go about it. Con was still missing and Nurain was where he had been last spotted. He could come back here and explain everything that happened to her. It was possible. But she really wasn't putting her hopes o
"Jane, wait!" "Jane!!!!" Jane ignored her boss's voice and continued on her way out of the office. She sold Con!. Not just to anyone, but to Miranda Olsen. Just the thought of it made her stomach turn in a way she could have never imagined. When she had read it before, she hadn't realized that it was THE Olsen family. There were a handful of families that bore the name Olsen in Glover city. That article could have been about any of them. There was only one Olsen family that had gold and green as their colors though. That family didn't reside in Glove city. They lived outside it. The irony was that they could control the happenings in Glover city with mere phone calls. They didn't have to be in the city to give orders. The sudden way Jake had backed off made sense now. Jane chuckled as she ran her hands through her hair. Con was with Miranda Olsen. That was bad. Very bad. "Jane. Wait up and listen to me okay?!!" Jane turned back to look at Adeline. The other lady was br
"You're not serious about this are you?"Con sighed and turned to give Miranda an exasperated look.She was getting more and more worried and that in turn made him feel agitated.Why would a woman keep on feeling worried? Con found himself smirking.Was she developing feelings for him?"Why do you think what I want to do is so bad?""I'm not saying it's bad, I'm saying it's a bad idea."Con walked over to her and sat down near her."Why?" They had been going back and forth on this all day, and time was running out.His mission wasn't over yet. He still had to get the rest of the cards and Miranda wasn't motivating him to do so.To begin with, he had come up with this plan, one he was set to carry out at their family dinner tonight but yet here she was dissuading him and telling him not to do it.She was even saying it was a bad idea. Con a frown forming on his face. He didn't have bad ideas. His ideas were always realistic and top notch. He didn't aim for what was impossible, but
Dinner in the Olsen home was shaping out to be a morbid affair. Con found himself sneering at how much vegetables he was staring at. It was a lot of green, and not the juicy and sweet type of green like apples.This was steam cooked vegetable green. Like they were serving goats instead of humans.Or maybe the whole family was vegetarian?Con grabbed another apple and sank his teeth into it.Unless these people brought out some real food, he wouldn't be eating any of the things set at this table.They could have their cabbages for all he cared.Con could feel the eyes of everyone at the table on him. His hair was slicked back again and he was looking dashing.He was dressed in green and gold. He carried himself with the grace of a young master and he sneered at anyone that sneered at him.Miranda had told him to avoid eye contact with anyone at the table, but so far he had stuck his tongue out at the man who sat at the head of the table and flipped the middle finger to the man who wa
Con cleared his throat."So this is how we're going to do this. I am now in control of your family's mega advanced artificial intelligence system. It will kill who I want it to kill, but I guess I don't really need to explain this right?"The silence at the table was resounding and Con chuckled as he nodded his head.Good thing they all understood quickly and they were scared for their lives.He continued."The AI has been programmed to kill whoever makes the slightest move, so I won't advise you to move too much, and as for the part where you're confused about what is happening, I'll explain later. For now, I need the cards."Con watched everyone at the table and noted each expression that flickered past on their faces. They didn't let too much emotion show but one thing was obvious, they were scared.He felt like laughing.Con let his eyes drift over to Xavier and he nodded to him.A high pitched whirring sound was heard and the next minute, the smell of sweet lemons invaded the wh
Xavier dropped the arm of the man he had behind him and rushed over to his boss.Con seemed frozen in place and it was obvious he wasn't expecting this.Xavier smiled.His boss had been expecting everything.They had come up with the plan last night and set to executing it this morning. Con had him sleep in the bed with Miss Olsen while he went out to go snooping around the Olsen house.He had reconfigured the artificial intelligence that controlled the affairs of the house and set himself as its master.He had promised the lady that he wouldn't bring any guns on his person and he had fulfilled that promiseThe cards would give the lady control of the AI and Xavier had suspected this would happen. He had told Con this would happen, and it seemed his boss had known too.Miranda Olsen was a victim in her own way, a victim of the world and of an unfortunate love. She had been victim to a family that didn't like her and siblings who sought to take what was hers, but with every victim s
