Seth (Book 4) FOURTEEN
At that time, I became sensitive and stupid. Seth tried to help me, but I got mad at him because I'm a woman.A soft knock returns my senses from my mind as Gunner sticks his head. "What is it?""Cap, Ghost is on the phone with the Big Boss," he says. His expression tells me that something is wrong. Big Boss he is referring to is Odin.Am I in trouble or something?"Okay, what does it have to do with me?" I ask him, then look at Persephone and Seth's curious faces. "Why didn't he call me through my phone?"Gunner shrug. "I don't know, but he wants to talk to you."I nod and follow Gunner out of the room as he leads me to the office, where I find Ghost on the phone."Yes, sir," he replies and spots me. I close the door and stand next to him. "Yes, sir. She is here. Okay."Ghost hands me the phone and leaves the room. I place the voice in my ear and answer. "Sir?""Terry dear, how are you feeling?" Odin's voice is heard on the other end of the call."I'm fine, sir. I can still feel the
Seth (Book 4) FIFTEEN
"Here we are," I say to Persephone as I open the door to the new house.It's a modern family house, two-story, three bedrooms and two baths. I look to my left to see the entranceway to the kitchen, and to my right is the family room. It's similar to the Reid's house but a smaller version.I drop the luggage next to the door, allowing Persephone to explore the house. "Your room is upstairs to the left," I told her.As she went upstairs, I explored the house more. I found another bathroom down the hall next to the kitchen. Walking down the corridor ends with a door leading to the back of the house with an average-sized pool and a large tree. A treehouse sits there and a swing. I approach the swing, and memories of sitting on the swing set just looking at the sun over the tall fence keep me from leaving the place that was supposed to be my home. I pictured my young self sitting in that swing, hoping to jump over the fence if I swung hard enough.That never happened.I was scared.I clenc
Seth (Book 4) SIXTEEN
I parked the car, turned off the ignition, and dropped my hands on my lap. I looked at the Reid's house and then at Persephone, who seemed troubled."What if they don't like me?" she asks quietly.I can understand where this question is coming from. She is about to meet new people; the only ones she feels close to are Seth and me.We haven't talked about Seth since that incident at the house. It has been two days with no talk or interaction. At first, I felt relieved, but I realized how much I missed him—missed his jokes and his teasing. I missed his touch and how his fingers made my whole body shiver in a good way. I hated men touching me. It took Odin and the boys a minute in my team to shake hands with me because it would remind me of the past. But with Seth's touch, he's gentle and feels with kindness. His hands feel softer than mine with all the callousness. It would've been better if I wore gloves when he touched my hands again.I close my eyes and shake my head. There is a bett
Seth (Book 4) SEVENTEEN
The BBQ party is still alive and well; the men are surrounding the grill, talking about men's stuff, and the ladies are in their own space doing the same thing, especially since the two of them are close to giving birth. The children are in the sandbox with the elderly guardians watching over them.My eyes roamed around, trying to look for that person. Since the time I arrived, he was nowhere to be found."Looking for someone?"My heart almost jumps at the sound of Effie by my side."No," taking a sip of my drink and lying. "Just being precautious." The two men were standing next to Rex at the grill, and my eyes landed on the two men at the grill.They look familiar. Judging by how they act, I smell trouble coming from them once they look at me."Seth went out to buy more ice.""Okay," sounding nonchalant, like I'm looking for him. But my eyes were on those men."Anyways, you don't need to be on the job, Terry.""It's a habit," I tell her and look over at Persephone, who has little Za
Seth (Book 4) EIGHTEEN
The kiss was hot and heavy; I had never kissed anyone before but with Seth's lips; he had experienced a lot, and just thinking about him with other girls made me agitated. I pull him closer, making our bodies touch. His hands snake around my waist, and I feel a tingle. His lips were soft, and I craved more as our tongues intertwined."I don't find you repulsive, Terry, "Seth whispers in our kiss. "Otherwise, we wouldn't be kissing."I didn't respond but continued to kiss him because the drug inside was still active, and I needed fifty percent of it out before things between Seth and me got out of hand. If this does involve removing our clothes, I'm afraid Seth will find out I'm a woman.A bit sober, I pull apart, and we both mimic each other's breathing. Looking at each different eye, he is hungry for more, but behind those, I remember what he said: his eyes were genuine.He doesn't see me as a freak. I'm not disgusting to him. The way he responds to my kiss means there is something t
Seth (Book 4) NINETEEN
It was easy to look for those two lackeys. After Kendall pinned me on the location, everyone in the house was asleep. I ensured Persephone had fallen asleep before driving to the bar nearby.I pretend to grab a midnight drink when I spot the two Order lackeys laughing and making out at the corner with women on their laps.I wanted to puke, but I had to be sure they were drunk before I got the chance to grab them. I made eye contact with the women on their laps. They nod their heads as I mimic in response. Although it disgusts me that they are with some random women, these women aren't ordinary people.Odin owns The Daggers, a group of secret agents that my team and I belong to, along with others. We are different from other agents because Odin himself chooses us.We are trained harsher and more fiercely because we are licensed to kill on contact without anyone realizing we exist.Sasha and Teagan are part of the Daggers, and I had asked them for this favor to get the Order men lackeys
Seth (Book 4) TWENTY
Grab the bucket of water and throw it at the two lackeys for them to wake up. They woke up instantly, confused and unaware of where and why they were tied up."The fuck!" Lou spat, shaking his head."What the fuck happened?" Eddie spits water out, and then his eyes glare at me. "You?"I glance down at my water and cross my arms. "Glad you guys woke up from your beauty sleep."Eddie snarled at me. "You splash water on us. Why are we tied up?" He struggled but wouldn't budge since they were both straps with steel cuffs. It can only be opened if you know the code."Oh, fuck," Lou sniffs around. "Shit, Frankie, you smell like piss."Eddie stuck his nose, sniffed his surroundings, and made a sour face. "Did you fucker pour piss on us?"I grin. "Well, it's not mine if that's what you think. Think of the curtsy from the bar manager for causing a ruckus and being so touchy with the ladies.""Those ladies are with you?" Frankie screeched to the point.Female laughter and giggles approach behin
Seth (Book 4) TWENTY ONE
This has been more awkward than before.Two weeks have passed since I almost violated Seth because of the drug and killed those two Order lackeys. That night, I drove to the agency and the gym to blow off steam.I knew my life as a hitman wouldn't be easy, especially for those who entered my life were important people.I hear noise from the men as they gather, talking. I pull my sunglasses slightly down for my eyes to see as I glance at where Seth and the men are. I observe his naked chest as it flexes every time he moves. His bare chest was visible to my naked eyes, and I couldn't help but stare at them. He and his brothers probably worked together; otherwise, they wouldn't resemble Chip N' Dales from Las Vegas. All they are missing are the neck bow ties and speedos.My whole body started to shake, and my breathing was panting; picking Seth with a bow tie and speedo and an oily body made me think dirty thoughts. Every inch of my body starts to heat up, not because of this warm weathe
