2020-09-30 03:45:38"What about Dom?" I got up from my seat and put the used bowl in the sink with the other dirty dishes. I should actually have to clean it up, but I just felt too tired for that. That would have to wait until tomorrow morning.
"Hello? Best friend? He was waiting for you to call him and tell him how your first day went. "
Oh no, she was probably right about that. I sighed loudly into the phone. "I'll just send him a message that I'll get in touch with him tomorrow to tell him everything."
"Well, is he satisfied with that?"
“He won't have any other choice. So now I depend on you We'll hear from you again tomorrow. "
"Okay, bye and don't let your coach annoy you too much."
"I'll try," I mumbled into her laugh and then just hung up. Then I quickly wrote a message to Domenico that I was tired and would call him tomorrow while I crossed the kitchen and turned off the light when leaving. My next stop was in my room, where Wynn was lounging on

Lurking In The Dark - Book 1 Resume
Whether it was so normal that an intern had to go home to his teaching coach in the morning so as not to be left out in the rain - literally, as the floodgates of heaven had decided today to drown the world - or not, now I was standing here in front of his front door, waiting for him to finally open the stupid thing so that I wouldn't drown out here on his threshold. But of course the Lord took his time. After all, it was dry inside too, so no need to rush.The area I was in was even more run down than the part of town I lived in. One apartment building huddled together here. Large prefabricated buildings that were as monotonous as the cloud-gray sky. The amount of graffiti that smeared the house walls suggested that there were gangs here. And the bars and shutters in front of the shop windows of the shops on the other side could also give rise to this thought. On the other hand, they could also simply be intended to protect against proles. That wasn't uncommon today.

Amazed, I stopped in mid-motion, so the towel hung in the air instead of loading on the table. What should that mean again? God, I've been with guys every day. With what I was doing it was just inevitable and although I thought I knew the male species humans pretty well, this guy made me feel insecure. I didn't like that."Ah, it says here you are an orphan," he said and traced the lines in front of his eyes with his finger. "Your parents were killed by proles."A painful stitch twitched my heart. That wasn't a topic I liked to talk about. "Unfortunately this is a repetitive phenomenon these days," I replied, quieter than I wanted. Sighing, I put the towel on the table.Nick closed the folder and tapped it thoughtfully on the chin. "But at least you got to know her.""You don't yours?" I leaned back, keeping my eyes on the towel."Nah." He let the folder sink into his lap. “My father ran away when he noticed that he had impregnated his wife a

"I asked you what we are.""Are you completely crazy ?! You can't ... "It clicked infinitely loudly as Reese unlocked his gun and held it to the back of Seth's head.The intern swallowed and threw a look for help at Aziz, but he just stood there and watched the scene with a frown. "Hey, we can talk about it for sure. I… shit! ”He cursed as Reese tightened the grip on his neck."Answer!"He licked his lips nervously and wondered feverishly what Reese could mean.I could understand that because I hadn't the slightest idea what this was going to lead to. That didn't make sense. Why did he attack Seth?"It will be soon," Reese demanded impatiently."Ve-venators?" Seth simply advised in the dark."What is our job?"Hm, it seemed like the right answer."We kill proles.""Why are we doing this?"Seth licked his lips nervously. "I ... to protect people.""And what do we never do ?

Fortunately, at that moment the Simia-Proles roared again and distracted Taid from our exchange of eyes.But we were discovered by Nick, who came to us with a "Hey!" And a beaming smile. And then, as if he had every right to, he placed a kiss on my cheek.To avoid him, I automatically pushed myself closer to Reese, which didn't really make it any better."You have a problem, my friend," said Taid.Before turning to that, I wiped my cheek demonstratively, which made Nick smile broadly."The cub that you sold me yesterday is dead."What? I looked from Taid to Reese, who had pressed his lips grimly together. He didn't seem to notice how his grip on my shoulder tightened barely noticeably."How?" He asked simply."Well, that's an excellent question." Taid pulled a Zippo out of his pants pocket, which he opened and closed. Open and closed. And open and close. As he did so, he looked down at it, as if to think carefully about the ans

Home? Home?! He didn't mean the place where I got him out of bed this morning, did he?As we drove past the small coffee shop where I got him his coffee this morning, I realized that that was exactly his goal. “But what about the guild? We have to get the reports ... ""Don't annoy me!" He ranzed at me and fished for the cigarettes in his coat.He could forget that. “The reports have to be submitted daily. The statutes state ... ""Shanks," he growled softly and fixed me with a look so intense that I swallowed involuntarily and almost grabbed Nick's hand just to be able to hold on to something. “Believe it or not, I know the statutes and if it should save your little sunlit world, I have a few forms at home that I will fill out there, so don't bother me anymore, otherwise it was the last one Time that you rode in my car! "After that little speech he was staring somberly through the windshield again."May I annoy you?" Nick

"Coincidentally, this is because the acquaintance in question is with you.""You could see it that way.""That means you can't speak openly right now?"I could almost hear the smile in his voice. "That's not funny.""Yes it is.""I should have asked Eve and not you," I grumbled and played around with the straw in my viscous drink.Nick took a sip from his glass, watching me intensely, as if trying to figure out what was being discussed on the other end."Because Eve knows so much more about guys.""In any case, she wouldn't have teased me."He sighed. “Oh Grace. My little, naive, innocent Grace. I think you are old enough to notice when a guy is flirting with you. "Great. "You're really not much help."“I just don't want to spoil the tension. You'll notice it when he wants something more from you. ""You already know that I love you right now?" I asked extremely sarcastically and saw out

It was only when we turned into my street and the tiredness began to make itself felt in me that I became a little calmer. And when Nick parked at my front door and turned off the music, the cocoon of silence around us was almost eerie."Well, thanks for the nice evening and bringing it home," I smiled at him and played with my fingers on the straw from the shop that I had taken for reasons that I knew. "Was really funny with you."He laughed softly. "I'll take that as a compliment.""That's how it was meant," I grinned and looked briefly at the house. The windows were dark. That probably meant that Uncle Roderick had already laid down. "Well, I'll go in then." My fingers felt for the seat belt and loosened it."Grace?"When I looked up, his face was suddenly right in front of mine. When did he lean forward that far?"You are really great, do you know that?""Um ... thanks?" I leaned back a little to bring a reasonable distance betwee

Here.""Uff!"Reese pounded the folded cage against my chest with so much force that I stumbled backwards. But of course he didn't care. He was already pulling a second cage off the trailer."Could it be a little more friendly?" I let the cage slide to the floor so that I could take it by the handle, when I almost got the next one in the face. "Reese!" Well, tell me, there is something wrong with him."We're not in Pussyland here, so stop complaining and do your job." He pressed the second cage against my chest so that it almost fell off me. Then he pulled two of himself off the trailer and marched back into the park.I followed him at a distance and wondered how I had earned that again. It had been like this all day. If his mood was normally bad, it had hit an all-time low today. And that despite the fact that I had brought him his stupid coffee again today - this time even warm.But that didn't matter. Today he seemed to have made it his b

It's not that bad," mumbled Nick and rolled over on his back, yawning. I ignored Reese when Nick held out his hand to me. With the smile on his face, he seemed just the same again - nothing reminded of Mr. Who and the meat fork. Smiling, I ran across the room and sat down on the mattress with him. "How are you?" "Now that you're sitting next to me, better." That was really cute. "And your arm?" "I'll get him his painkillers," Reese announced and then disappeared from the doorway with one last hostile look at me. Nick looked after him thoughtfully. "He is angry." “Can you blame him? He was right, I shouldn't have just left the door open. " He turned his head so he could look me in the face. "Did I understand that correctly? You took out the garbage? " "I've cleaned up." "Where? Here?" "Well, the apartment." I shrugged my shoulders indifferently. "Just cleaned up a little." "Why?" Hm, an honest answer might

I ignored him and reached into the basket again, but before I could even touch the laundry, he had roughly grabbed my arm and pushed me towards the kitchen door. I stumbled and didn't fall because I could catch myself on the sofa. I hit my leg in the process, but the pain in my arm was much worse. Reese had hit the exact same spot where Nick grabbed me yesterday morning. There was a bruise on my skin there and it fucking hurt when he pressed there."And now finally get out of here and don't be seen here anymore!"I didn't think I was as angry with another person as I was at this moment in my life. No matter what kind of problems he had, it didn't give him the right to talk to me like that and that's why there was only one thing I could say back. "No."Reese blinked once, as if he couldn't believe what I'd just said of myself. "What did you say?""I said no. Nick wants me here and I won't go until he demands it. ”I straightened up and glared at him.

I stood tense in the kitchen and listened to the noises of the door closing."Nick?"Damn it, it really was Reese. Immediately our last meeting shot through my head.Hussy.Slut.Whore.I pinched my lips in a thin line and turned back to the laundry. I wouldn't let him drive me away again. Nick was my friend and I had every right to be here.I listened carefully to his steps. I could tell exactly when Reese stepped into the kitchen and saw me on the clothes horse. It wasn't just the fading of the noises, it was almost like a dark aura that entered the room with him and tried to push me against the nearest wall. Anger. I could practically feel it.But he didn't say anything, just stood silently in my back and that made me more nervous than if he had yelled at me straight away. Why didn't he say anything? I tried not to show my nervousness and just pulled the next item of laundry out of the basket. “I've already put the res

Taking a deep breath, I pushed myself off the wall and marched back into the kitchen. I was not finished yet. The dishes were still waiting and the floor also had to be mopped. The only room that escaped my cleaning madness was Reese's room, and only because he would probably cut me into four and then dump me with Mr. Who's remains if I even set foot in there. I had even cleaned the surface of Nick's room. Very quietly so as not to wake him up. He seemed to need sleep.The kitchen finally looked homely. I had even cleaned the upholstery of the couch with whatever was available to me. That alone had cost me an hour.Sighing, I stood at the sink and began to work on the soaked dishes. That was not that easy, because although I had put it in the water almost two hours ago to get the dried up food scraps away, there were some stubborn stains that resisted steadfastly and so I stood at the sink for a while before I did the last plate hoisted the white flag and was clean aga

I promised." I broke away from him, ran my hand over his stubbly cheek. The blond shadow of the beard was barely visible, but the dark circles under the eyes emerged very clearly. And also the pale skin color. He wasn't doing well, but I couldn't tell if it was because he had just stabbed his pet because I didn't like it, or the injury and the medication. But I knew one thing very well. "You belong in bed.""I've been in bed all morning." His hand also came to rest on my cheek, the hand with which he had just stabbed so coldly.I had to pull myself together hard not to shrink from it. “And with good reason. Come on, we'll put you under the covers again. "He chewed his lips briefly, looking in my eyes for an answer whose question I didn't know. "Will you stay with me?"That was probably the first real smile he got from me today. "Naturally. That's why I'm here, right? I lie down with you. ""OK."Since he didn't move, I took his hand a

Reese built this cage for me," he said quietly. His hand loosened the cramp on the grille and brushed toward the door. “He put a lock in, you see? Only he can open the cage. He doesn't give me the key. He always carries it with him. "Confusion showed on my face. Why did he tell me this?“Back then, Norbert told Reese that I should get a pet. It might help me to keep my balance, it makes me feel responsible, but I never got the key. ”He gave me a wry smile. His eyes looked slightly glazed, his gaze somehow distant. Was he still under the influence of the medication?“Nick, please get out of there. You belong in bed. "“He never gave me the key. I could only feed Mr. Who. ”His hand fell off the cage. There was something sad in his eyes as he turned and crossed the room to the kitchenette. "I've had it for a year now," he told me as he pulled out a drawer and rummaged in it. “In the beginning he tried to bite me a f

The door was ajar. I still didn't feel comfortable being here. I was happy and was able to assure myself that Nick was fine, but I was absent from the academy without excuse and that gave me a massive stomach rumble. I had never skipped before. Never!Taking a deep breath, I stepped into the apartment and quietly closed the door behind me. Immediately I had the smell of cold smoke and leftover food in my nose again. Did these guys never air? "Nick?""In the kitchen!" He called back.I took off my shoes and jacket and then took the now familiar path - although you couldn't really speak of familiar, after all, I had only been here twice. And once Reese chased me away. What would he say if he caught me here now? What did I care? It was absolutely none of his business! I just had to keep telling myself that, maybe at some point I wouldn't really care what he was thinking. I didn't even understand why I didn't care. Why did I care what Reese thought? And why the hell

Did I wake you up?"Nick! Immediately I sat upright in bed, "Are you all right? I mean, Reese said you ... ""Take it easy, Cherry, everything is okay with me.""Cherry?" Was he mistaking me now? Had something on his head after all?Nick laughed softly. "Naturally. Cherry, cherry. They are as red as your hair and just as cute as you. "My mouth opened a bit, but no word would come out. Was that supposed to be a mess? But why should he do that?"Are you there?""Um ... yes, I am." I sleepily pushed my hair back from my face. "I ..."An annoyed groan came from Wynn's bed. “Can't you go out if you have to call at this time? I still want to sleep!"I would have loved to roll my eyes. She never considered me either, but since I had to get up immediately anyway, I could just as easily turn off my alarm clock and start the day a little earlier."Grace?""Yes, wait a minute."

My reputation was enough to get you back to the real issue. “Well, Nick was with them, but he's been released in the meantime. Since I couldn't prove that I really am his fiancée, the sister couldn't give me any exact information. But at least I know this much that the injury is not life-threatening. On the whole, he was just angry that this happened to him. ""So he's fine?" Where did my powerful voice go?Evangeline nodded. “Yes, he was given painkillers and sedatives. Reese probably drove him home then. ""Sedatives?" I frowned. "Why was he given tranquilizers?" Nick wasn't someone who was on the verge of collapse because of something like that. Or? No definitely not. The fact that he had been given tranquilizers didn't fit into the picture at all.She just shrugged. "No idea. I can only reproduce what I have heard.
