After she saw Shelby leave on her bike Carolyn turned back into the office to meet the curious eyes of her partner.
" She is the mystery woman? " Max asked referring to the stunning blonde that was speaking to his partner in front of their room.
Carolyn didn't answer and just walked back to her seat to begin her work.
" She stunning, " Max commented despite his partner's silence.
Carolyn looked up from the screen of her laptop to her partner. " Don't you have better things to do, other than hoarding me about the woman I am sleeping with? " she asked arching her brow at him.
" Nope, " Max muttered with a wide grin before asking another question since his partner is being secretive on the personal front.
" So what does Quinn want with you? "
Carolyn froze for a second. Thinking about Shelby and her multiple facets had made her forget that she was a suspect in an ongoing murder investigation.
" A guy was murdered at the club
The next morning Percy woke to the sound of his alarm clock blaring angrily. He turned around to his right in the direction of the clock and hit the snooze button shutting up. He tried to get up but the arm around him tightened around his waist, stopping him. He relaxed back to the bed with his right folded across over his head and he waited for his wife to relax her grip also.A few seconds later he felt the loosening of the slender limbs around him, he gently took the arm in question and flipped it off him, making sure to lower it gently so as not to wake his sleeping wife.His wife mumbled a groan of protest, her body turning around on the bed as she searched for his warmth. Percy leaned over and replaced his absent body heat with his pillow, immediately his wife quiets down.A loving smile appeared on his lips as he stared down at his wife with tenderness. He leaned down to her forehead and pecked her. " I love you, " he whispered." Shush, go back to
Waking up beside strangers wasn't strange to Shelby, what with Lightning's healthy sexual appetite, but that is not to say she likes it. " Who are you? " She asked harshly, her voice raised which woke the interloper in her bed.The guy opened his eyes and looked at Shelby smiling brightly at her with his shaggy blonde hair looking like a rat-infested nest.Shelby displeased scowl didn't bulge at the sight of his gorgeous smile, probably what he used to win lightning over. " You need to leave, " she ordered sternly getting up from bed.If the guy was confused about her changed attitude he didn't show it and followed her meekly to the door.Shelby totally forgot about the knock that woke her up in the first place and when she opened the door to let her visitor out she froze in shock at Carolyn standing on the other side with a sheepish look which immediately hardened to a stern dark look when she looked behind her.Confused about the change in her ex
Lightning knew immediately Shelby walked up to the mirror that something was wrong. She had a troubled look on her face. she looked worried about something. " What is it? " She enquired.Shelby stared at her reflection worry written all over her face. This is not her first hunt but this one for a reason she can't place her finger on she is filled with this foreboding feeling that wouldn't go away even though she tries thinking positively. " We have been activated for a hunt, " she whispered to her reflection with a little bit of dread.Lightning scoffed. And here she was thinking something serious happened. " Is that all, " she said lightly not grasping the reason why Shelby was looking troubled." No, " Shelby shook her head which made Lightning straighten up to pay attention. " What? " she demanded." The hunt will be happening at once. "Lightning face was a picture of confusion. " what does that even mean? " She frowned.
The sound of fighting echoed high across the whole building spiking the adrenaline surge through Lightning's veins as her heart rate sped up in accordance with the danger level.She has been making her slowly through the turns and lots of cubicles in the building but has yet to encounter any weapons. Where the fuck are they? She growled harshly in her mind. If those fuckers that brought her have been playing her about being a weapon in here she was going to kill them when she gets out of here.Lightning ears twitched as she picked up something usual. She froze in her step and listened. A bullet heading in her direction. Her survival instinct took over and she ducked a second the bullet would have impacted her right chest causing it to graze her shoulder instead.Lightning eyes flashed quickly in the direction the bullet came from to see a guy about her age dressed up as a college in dark grey polo and saggy washed-out ragged jeans. In his hands
Percy hissed in disappointment at the turnout of the fight though not surprised. Right from the beginning, he has always thought Lightning to be a fierce assassin, and tonight she has proved him right again.Before the fight, Percy along with John had made the final arrangement. The invitation with the change of venue and rules were sent out from his office then he had a general meeting with the members of his security to select those that will be responsible for picking up the assassins from their various homes.Part of the arrangements John made was helping them purchase five black SUV vans that will be used to pick and transport the assassins to and fro from the site of the hunt.Another arrangement done was a mini-hospital equipped to resuscitate the final living assassin at the end of the hunt. All the staff is under a contract agreement never to reveal anything they see or they will be dead before the words could leave their mouth.John also arrange
As the lift drove her down from Shelby's apartment, Carolyn's mind was a riot of emotions. Why do I let her affect me this way, she kept asking herself with her lean frame resting on the wall of the lift. The mere thought of what happened on the table a few minutes ago made her clit jump. Damn it she has to stop thinking about the woman like this.When the elevator came to a stop Carolyn walked out and headed out the lobby.Her phone rang while she was driving to work." Hello, " she said into the phone." Where are you? " her partner's voice filtered into the phone with concern. It was unlike his partner to come in late." On my way. Was out pursuing a lead. "A few meters away from the precinct the smell of hotdog hit Carolyn's nose reminding her that she hasn't had anything to eat. She stopped and got herself some and a hot cup of coffee which she had quickly in her car before making her way to the precinct.She w
It was a gradual pull to wakefulness like someone was shaking her awake calling her consciousness out of the deep pool of darkness it was immersed into the light. That was how Shelby felt before she regained consciousness. The first thing that hit her even before her eyes opened was the aching soreness around her throat. It hurts like a bitch. Shelby winced from its pain before opening her eyes.She stared up at the sparkling sterile white ceiling above her for some seconds trying to get her bearing. Where was she? Shelby swallowed against the dryness in her throat which was a difficult fit seeing she didn't have any saliva left in her mouth to smoothen the action.She looked around her. She was in some kind of room and on a cot bed. As her eyes continued to trail everything in the room she picked up that she was in some kind of hospital room, but who will bring her to the hospital. The last thing she remembers was Lightning leaving for the hunt. If she was here that m
The pleading tone of Shelby's voice asking her to stay surprised Carolyn. She has never heard the blonde sound so vulnerable. " I will stay, " she replied and watched the woman on the bed lose the tension in her body.She walked back to the bed and bent down to face Shelby on the bed. " I am. going to help you get comfortable is that okay? "Shelby looked up at her with eyes clouded in pain and nodded her head." Can you lie on your back? it will make it easy to undress you. " Shelby smirked at her as something else appeared in her eyes. Carolyn shook her head at the twinkling she saw in those blue eyes. " I only want you comfortable while you sleep no funny business. "" Bummer, " Shelby whispered underneath her voice which Carolyn picked up and smiled. " Maybe next time, " she said and leaned over to kiss the blonde lightly on the lips.Carolyn began to remove the blonde dress. She started from her top. She moved the leather jac
Lightning didn't know why the cop didn't listen to her and it annoyed the hell out of her. Her reckless action brought their enemies to their hideout, which made their getaway almost impossible.She had had to confiscate her phone so the cop is not tempted to call anyone for help.Lightning scoffed as she remembered the cop asking to give herself up. As if she would be stupid enough to trust the Justice system in the state. She will most likely be dead before she makes it to the police station.Percy's reach into the government was so verse that Lightning was not ready to trust anyone's words. She was going to Marcus because she put her trust in the guy's feelings for her to know that he wouldn't betray her. Nevertheless, it was a risky gamble.On their way to LA Lightning tried to figure out a way to end this and make sure that she and Carolyn gets to live their lives safely becaus
Everything was in chaos. With Lightning gone and the rest of the best assassin dead, the Corps was in great disarray.Percy has most of his men out there looking for Lightning with an order to bring the woman back alive.He had rescinded the order of bringing her in dead or alive when his second reminded him of the contract at hand and that they still need someone to carry out the kill.Having lost most of their skilled assassin in the latest hunt and Lightning out in the wind there wasn't anyone skillful enough to assassinate the vice president and that is why he wants the runaway assassin brought back in alive.Once she has completed the mission Percy will then take care of her. Which means they need to start afresh recruitment.Percy had come in early this morning to monitor things from the office. Some of his tech guys are monitoring to see if either the cop or Lightning will use any of their cards
Carolyn woke up feeling sores all over. It didn't take long before everything came crashing back to her. Tracking Shelby and nearly being killed and her dead partner. All these things in mind, Carolyn had one confusion and that is being with Shelby.Making love with the small blonde always feels like making love to two people. She opened her eyes to find the blonde staring at her a fond expression on her stunning face. She didn't look like she just woke up and Carolyn knows that she must look a mess. She has never have a good morning face." Why does sleeping with you feel like having sex with two different people? "She had asked the question not because she expected an answer but as a way to distract the blonde from her intense stare. She was getting self conscious. She was thrown for the loop when the blonde said she has multiple personality disorder.Wow! She has never met someone with it before. I
The last person Lightning had expected to have at knife point was Carolyn. She had felt someone come up behind her and when the person had asked her to freeze or she shoot she had laughed inside wondering which cop was stupid enough to stumble into an assassin hunt. That is just begging to be killed.Killing was exactly what she had intended when she turned around on the voice and disarmed her not expecting the cop to be her lover.With her knife at Carolyn's throat Lightning had been tempted to just slit her throat. Being here means that the cop's fate had been sealed. There was no way Percy was letting her live. Not after discovering their hunting ground. Which begged the question of how she found it.How? she frowned at her lover not moving her hand from her throat.I followed you the cop, gurgled in a smug tone that Lightning wanted to smack off.The furrow at the center of her forehead
Sweet girl has been an assassin long before the assassin hunt. It was easy carry out jobs because no one suspects her to be a killer because of her sweet innocent face so she took advantage of that. Because she was most successful in what she does jobs kept coming her way which lead the company to her door step.When they offered her the opportunity to join she jumped at it with two hands even knowing how dangerous it will be. Sweet girl enjoys what she does and the fact that she gets to play a game with it all the more thrilling.Participating in the hunt the first time opened her eyes to the reality that she has just signed her death warrant and there was no going back.

Percy was woken up in the morning by a phone call from John that they have a new client. A very important client that couldn't be kept waiting. Percy had to start his day earlier than he wanted. With a kiss to his still slumbering wife he got up to get ready for work.He walked into the restaurant where John was waiting with the client dressed impeccable Italian body fit black suit. He spied them at the left corner of the prestigious restaurant. The man even though he was elegantly dressed and looked well off like an important business man he looked nervous. His eyes kept shooting to the door like he was about to bolt any moment.Percy was used to this in his client, especially new ones. Everyone is always squeamish when it comes to killing. He took his seat beside his second facing the man. He smiled charmly at him before introducing himself." Percy smith. "" Joseph Kennedy. "" Pleasure, " Percy sai
Carolyn was head bent pouring over the recent murder case on her hand. The Colosimo's homicide. She hasn't had any real break in the case. It is as if the murderer disappeared into thin air.Her hunch tells her it is Miss Rolland but she couldn't bring herself to believe that the woman she was sleeping with was capable of murder. Though she had noticed some strange behaviors in the woman, how she tends to act different in so many occasions but that doesn't make her a murderer.Weird, mysterious yes but a killer no, Carolyn shook her head remembering how sweet Shelby acts around her and the tender way she took her the last time they had sex. No she didn't believe her capable of murder.Even though she tried so hard to remove her lover from suspicious her mind wouldn't settle. She was plagued by the thought that Shelby was hiding something from her and that is why she has two of her men on her.Is been two weeks sin
" She looked jealous, " Marcus commented casually after Carolyn left. Shelby looked at him. He tried to appear unaffected but Shelby could see in his eyes that he was curious to know the dynamics between her and Carolyn. She shrugged her shoulders not commenting either way. " What are you doing here? " she asked instead. Marcus looked uncomfortable at her question. His crossed legs untangled and his both feet dropped to the ground as if bracing himself for his response. " I missed you, " he said softly allowing his gaze to meet with Shelby. He wanted her to see how he really felt. Shelby was a little disconcerted seeing his feelings out there. She didn't know what to say in response. She will accept that she had initially been open to taking things further with Marcus but after the long period of silence from him she doesn't know anymore. And then there is Carol
Is been three days since Carolyn saw Shelby and she has been thinking about her non stop. It marvels how one woman could penetrate her soul within a short period of knowing her. Though her head keep sending her warning signals to keep away she can't stop thinking about her.The thought of the last time she was with the woman made her whole body flush with heat and her center to throb. She has never enjoyed sex the way she does when she is with Shelby.Carolyn sighed willing herself to move her thought away from the blonde. She turned her head to the side to glance at her alarm clock. It was almost time for her alarm. This morning she beat the alarm. Actually that is a first for her. Her job can be erratic sometimes that sleep sometimes is hard to come by but when she does fall asleep she likes to sleep every second but today she didn't know what had woken her.The phone rang and the sound reminded exactly why she was awake.
