I walked into the building and looked around. The guys were all seated around in the living room, bags and luggages abandoned on the floor. I walked in after them and got settled as well.An old looking woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere, she was dressed in a uniform of sorts and she bowed when she had all our attention."Welcome to the house. I would be your host for your stay here. Please follow me as I take you to your rooms" she said.She turned and walked away and slowly we all got up and followed her. The interior of the house had a nice decor, with a small open enclosement in the middle of the building that had a pond with a few fishes inside. We went past and she showed the guys their rooms and I and the girls ours right next door.The wooden door slides open as I opened and I stopped into the empty room after taking off my shoes, I walked in and looked around. There was a cupboard filled with mattresses and linen sheets which I knew we were meant to sleep in. Apart from
"Numbers will be assigned to each team. You respond immediately, when your number is called and you take yourself to the designated location and you await orders!!" Shouted Commander Albert.We were suiting up with the new gadgets we had been given. A mike and an ear piece for everybody, with sensors on several parts of our body for location tracing. I was wearing casual clothing but I had Glock guns beneath the dress I was wearing."Buzz cut! You are with me. we will be team one" he said as he went past us as he left."Let's go!" He shouted.We all followed him and got into the awaiting delivery bus outside. It was filled with computers and several gadgets and all the seats were empty."Commander Albert should choose a student, you'll be in team two and three respectively. You'll be on these chairs. Commander Jonathan and Commander Dominic will be team four and five. Pick a student and wait for orders" he said.The teams that had been assigned to computer duty immediately sat with Ka
The elevator pinged open on the twentieth level of the building. The personnel went ahead of us and we followed immediately after them.The opulent floor with its high ceiling windows and expensive chairs spoke volumes about the kind of consultations they did here.I couldn't imagine how we left the dump we were staying in only to drive for an hour to get to this rich, busy looking city. The two places were so distinct and different yet they were so close to one another.We went straight past the reception desk and went into the inner buildings. My eyes kept scanning the names on the doors we passed, maybe the names would help us later. We walked past a few before we reached the door with the name of the doctor we had come to see.The security opened the door for us and walked in. From where I stood I couldn't see the face of the doctor but I knew that the personnel was talking privately to him. They spoke for a while before he excused himself and left.We silently walked in and took
The doctor was dressed in scrubs and he had a face mask over his nose. He had me lie down properly on the chair and placed my feets up in the stirrups. I was still partially dressed inside my hospital gown and I was still wearing my boy shorts. Nobody was going to see me down there whether we were acting or not.The doctor took a partition and covered half my body, I couldn't see what he was doing on the other side. I was tense and waited silently for any wrong movement before attacking him.Luckily he did nothing and I only heard the sounds of tearing and metal clanking against the other. I laid on that chair for a long time as I let him do his thing on the other side.I must have dozed off for a bit because the next thing I knew was the doctor pulling the partition open. His gloves hands looked gooey and a little bloody and for a moment I hoped he hadn't sedated me then did something. He shook his head a little, letting me know it was all fake. He went over to the nearby sink and
I walked to go after Emily but I stopped, because he was right behind me. I turned back around and faced commander Albert, he had leaned on the door frame and had his hands crossed over one another."Having issues with your colleagues?" He asked.I said nothing as I watched him, I was right not to trust him a little bit."With all due respect Sir. What the hell was that inside? Trying to rile Commander Jonathan up for what? Do you enjoy it? And I don't care what all these other people here think, but you and I know that I was following orders, I did all I can to make sure our act was sold and that was that. Nothing more. I would do it all over again if I had to do it. But next time, choose someone that has more than a buzz cut okay?" I asked.I turned in my anger to walk back into the room, I was even thinking he would stop me but he never did. So I walked into the room and closed the door shut.Karis sat tense on her mattress while Emily was already lying down, but I knew from the te
I didn't now where everyone had dispersed to and I didn't care enough to look. I went through the destroyed living room to the kitchen and pulled out the drawers. I had seen two long rusted looking swords kept there the first day I had gone through. I didn't know who they belonged to and what they were doing here and I didn't care, I just wanted to get in some actionI pulled them out and turned around, my gaze clashing with the old woman's as she cowered behind the door."Leave and hide, immediately" I ordered.She shrieked and quickly turned around, disappearing into the house. I went the opposite direction back to the living room. I stopped the moment I heard crashes in one of the other rooms, they had probably gotten in and were already engaged in fights with the team somewhere in the house.I walked through the broken wall and furniture outside where I could see their huge truck waiting. I didn't think as I ran towards it, Alpha mode on.My attacks were swift and precise, I had
I looked away from them and focused on Karis. I heard their voices as Commander Albert dished out orders and they responded. I also missed the last look Achu threw over his shoulders at us before they all leapt out of the van. My focus was all on Emily, her eyes were closed as she lay on the ground, her breathing was slow and her heart rate was definitely going down. Her blood had soaked through her clothing and now formed a small puddle beside her, she didn't have long if I didn't do anything about it.I didn't even know what I was supposed to do for her, I knew the practical version of the procedure when it was performed on Emily.I had never tried it on anybody else and now here I was, someone's life in my hands.I called onto my wolf, needing her help to do this. Even though I was unconscious when it had been done to me, my wolf was alert and awake, and she had witnessed it. She would know things and be aware of things I would normally miss. So I needed her help, in case I wasn'
I spent the rest of the day indoors with karis, her temperature running hot then cold. She was having a fever, a sign that she was recovering and that her body was trying to get better. Most of the guys had already come to see her and they had gone. I was still in the room in the evening with Emily and Anthony, both had fallen asleep on the bed while I lay quiet on the couch."Commander Susan is here. Wake them up" said Achu as he poked his head through the door before retreating."Guys. Wake up. Get up" I said tiredly as I shoved at them with my footI saw that they were awake before I conveyed the message to them, thengot up and left.Commander Susan was the old woman we had met earlier on the elevator, and she looked as elegant as she had earlier. She was walking around the apartment looking at stuff, almost like a supervisor here to look around and supervise."It was a close call with the attack at the rendezvous point. How did they trace you there? I thought you covered your tr
