Derek could feel his head spinning but he still managed to keep himself upright.For someone who had a lot of stamina, he was feeling light headed at the sight of a silver haired man and that wasn't sitting well with him.The man now stood in front of two policemen, flashing them charming smiles and leaving them unable to speak after some time. Silver hair and silver eyes seemed way more effective in making people treat you better than normal dark hair and dark eyes did.These same police officers had taken one look at him and sneered like he was some kind of scum or wanted criminal. They said something about his hair and eyes looked dangerous and that his wife should have known he would be a potential rapist.That was what Janette had told them though. That he stumbled into her room drunk and tried to rape a few of her friends.She was in tears when she relayed that information to them and the look they gave him had almost made him feel like he had really committed the crime.The fe
Xavier swallowed the annoyance at the back of his throat and looked at the lady in front of him.The policewoman turned out to be much nicer than her male counterparts .She went by the name Sophia Lee and she had light pink hair, a rarity, much more than his silver hair.The only feature he probably trumped her with was his eyes and the fact that he was angry now."I'm not asking for too much Mr Frost. I guess you can understand my curiosity."Xavier nodded incredulously.Oh he understood her curiosity all right.He could also understand that she didn't really feel like letting the man in her custody go. According to her, he had been charged with rape.A very grievous offense and one that would require him being prosecuted and taken to court.He would have agreed to that but the sergeant was a smart woman. She had already thought of him interfering and so she had come up with another proposition.In essence, "Strip for me and I'll let you walk out of here with that man."That was exa
Jake Caswell stared at the lady in front of him and he laughed. To think that the beautiful and super successful Adeline Highton was now reduced to this just made him feel like laughing even more.He had asked her to sell Nurain to him back then hadn't he?He would have even taken her in as a girlfriend, at least for the meantime, but no. She had played the victim and she had refused his request.A lady could never be trusted to manage anything important, especially not something like a multi million dollar company.The company she had spent four years building up was now nothing but rubble. All of her assets were gone and everything she had worked for was now at the bottom of a buttload of trash. Even all the money she had saved up so she could fall back on in times of trouble, everything was gone now.At the bottom of the sea.Jake laughed and gripped the arm of his seat to prevent himself from falling off. It was just too funny, so so funny.The lady he was thinking of was stan
Con slept in the car on the way to the manor and Xavier found himself staring at his former boss closely.They were still in the car and still on the way to his mansion, or manor as his daughter would like to call it, but this would probably be the only time he would get to inspect his boss closely.It had been more than twelve years since they had both left the military and their mercenary crew had been disbanded. The incident in the grasslands had been one that dealt the credibility of their crew a huge blow.Mark had been the reason for that.Mark had always been the love sick one, the one who wanted a model family and who wanted to leave the life they led behind. Mark didn't like acting crazy and killing people even if they were the enemy and they would gladly kill you if you didn't kill them first.Mark was different from all of them in a way.He had great foresight and he was an excellent marksman. He was also a selfless brother who could do anything for his sister and he had.
Derek could feel his insides being boiled but yet a sound refused to leave his mouth. The scary silver haired girl had told him that she would rather have him silent when he was in her lab than actually have him scream and make a fuss.She would be forced to sedate him then and he didn't want to be sedated .This was scary enough as he was still awake.Besides, he didn't trust the fifteen year old girl not to rip him open and start poking at his insides if she sedated him.She was intelligent, no doubt. With silver hair and eyes almost like her father's, but her eyes weren't fully silver and that just made her look even more intimidating.More than that was the aura she carried around. Her father had this perpetually cold aura around him, if possible it radiated outward and made any room he stood in feel cold too.It had happened in the car, and on the way into the huge mansion. The warmth had returned for a moment when they came into the living room and he had gone off to get a chang
Aubrey grunted as yet another one of the ceilings came crashing down and dust came spraying down on her.She coughed out the white powdery substance and blew her nose so she could get it cleared.The man beside her simply watched her with mild fascination and walked over the fallen beam of the ceiling that had collapsed."I'm telling you again now Miss Aubrey, I feel this sort of...... activity might be too dangerous for you. Are you sure you don't want me to help you find what you're looking for?"Aubery found herself genuinely considering that but she shook her head all the same. It would be in her best interests if she was to continue this journey and end it herself.She had done this a million times now, there was now way that she could still be unused to the dust and the traps. Sometimes there were very deadly snakes along this journey too.But one day all her work would pay off and that was what kept her going. The hope that one day all of the effort she was putting into all of
"It's only going to get tighter Mr Aer. It would be better if you relaxed more."Derek could feel his heart pounding and the metal-like object around his arm seemed to squeeze even more with each passing second, but he took a deep breath and calmed down all the same.The band around his arm was beeping and the little girl beside him seemed to be taking note of everything all at once. Her eyes flew from the monitor at the corner of the room, to the screen just above them, then to the machine at her side, and then finally landing back on him.Derek could tell the smile she gave him next was a bit fake but it looked pretty all the same."You're doing really well Mr Aer."He felt like chuckling and running a hand through his hair but he couldn't move so he only chuckled instead. "I can tell from your expression that you're lying Lisa, and please, call me Derek."Lisa stared at him for a while before finally nodding and looking over to her father. For a little while Derek could see somet
Jane stared at the man in front of her and she pressed the red button below her desk. Two guards came in to escort the model in front of her out and she sighed."Send the next person in."Her assistant was almost pale faced right now and Jane couldn't help but chuckle at that a bit.She hadn't expected anything less than him being pale faced really. It was a pretty normal reaction.Today was an important day and it was also a busy one. She had been in her office as early as 6am and she had asked for the modeling room to be prepared.So far she had spent over six hours on her seat and it was really hard to sit in one spot for over six hours.In the space of six hours she had rejected over sixty men.Well seventy to be honest but who was keeping count anyways?Lancer walked over to the door and nodded to the man outside. He turned back to look at his boss and he could feel the color returning to his cheek at the look on her face. In a way, it seemed she was more exhausted than he was,
