MAX

All this fuss over a game of laser tag. An intense, thirty minute long, unreasonably realistic game of laser tag.

I can't believe I was so worked up over… this.

“On your left Max” Mia breezed passed with an otherworldly precision, leaving nothing but the sound of pounding feet behind me.

I'd only just turned halfway when the player fired a shot that grazed my arm, reducing my points to just five now.

“Shit.”

“Get out of the game if you don't know how to play kid” he chuckled. “You know w

    Mia's POV “Get off me! Get your… fucking hands… off me!!” I kept pounding his back with my hands, but from Brian's perspective, they were probably nothing but tickles. “Don't make bite you're fucking ear o—”“Would you drop wrigglin?” He tossed me to the bed, then clicked his room door shut with his foot. “You're gonna wake the whole damn house up” he groaned. It was a little hard to look pissed with my hair flying over my face and my cotton nightwear ruffled, so I sat up abruptly and raked a hand through my hair to pull it back. “You fucking… pussy” I cursed. “You tell me to fix her and then you chicken out?”“You were going overboard. I said fix her, not make her fucking slut.”“Ohhh” I feigned understanding. “Since when does Brian Callaghan not like sluts?”His jaw ticked, but the expression barely lasted a second before fizzling away. “You know, you're starting to get a little mouthy” he said. I raised a brow, unimpressed.“You used to like that too.”Silence. Just there. No

    MIABy no means did I consider myself an enchanting seductress. Sure, I'd built a thriving career off of preying on the lust of money, and of course I'd taken advantage of the perks of my my body when I needed, and wanted to. But no. That didn't give anyone the right to call me a slut.Siren, I'd let it slide. The reason you can't sleep at night, a compliment. But slut???!!!Maybe only right now, cause my tongue was in the mouth of a bitch I wanted to kill three nights ago. A low groan cracked out her throat, despite her fake attempt at struggling out of my grip. “Eager already?” I bit her lip, slamming her back against the door. “A bit naughty, don't you think?”Mika was a lot hotter with her hair ruffled like this. The little ponytail look was so awfully see-through, I'd literally smelled the deception on her skin the second I met her. I put my knee between her legs, slowly guiding her to widen it, and she easily succumbed. Why wouldn't she?Her panties were already soaked wh

    MIKA WAYNEThe best part of being a female mercenary… was that I could hide in plain sight. Like I was right now. Four weeks ago, my own target approached me at my family dinner, thinking he'd been contracted by my dad to protect me.Hilarious.But killing Theo Campbell at the annual banquet would be a mess I didn't have the strength to clean up.Besides, if I'd gotten rid of him that night and completed my mission, I wouldn't be presented with this golden opportunity:“Ratting out Brian Callaghan to become thirteen million dollars richer.”Damn. Even thinking about it got my heart racing. For the past couple days, I'd been contemplating how to do it.You see, I didn't work under Lang Corp. Matter of fact, Yoshen Enterprises, (my employers) were Lang's competitors in the black market. Their dynasty-long enmity was one of the reasons I had to eliminate Theo in the first place, so I knew exactly what I was getting into if I decided to waltz straight into the jaw of the Lang's.Howev

    BIANCAThe cuffs came off five minutes ago, yet I hadn’t moved from my position.Partly because I was still mapping a route in the darkness, and partly because I expected Adrian to pop out any minute now.I didn’t believe his twenty-minutes bullshit, and as far as I was concerned, all this was some elaborate trap I’d end up falling into.If I really wanted to escape here… I had to find my own way out.I had to… play dirty.I felt my way through the dimly lit room and found his wooden chair far off to the edge.The creak of it as I dragged it down the floorboards whispered a chilling hum deep through my bones.I ignored it, grounding myself with steady breaths… and then…I slammed it hard on the ground.It didn’t budge.Twice. Three times.At the fourth, it shattered.I grabbed the sharpest piece, one leg of the chair with a slightly sharpened edge, and wedged it against the cement walls my chains were hooked into.Coiling the chains against the wood, I twisted clockwise, pressing again

    TIFFANY“O–of course,” I stuttered, reached for my purse, and tried to move past him. “I just wanted to wash my hands. I must’ve taken a wrong turn somewhere—”“Have we met before?” He stepped across me, towering slightly over my slender figure.“W… what?”“You look familiar. Have we run into each other before?”Fuck. Not exactly.Shadow was one of two men the police were meant to arrest at the party where I was kidnapped. Zane was taken in his place.But according to the NYPD, Shadow was a fucking ghost.They had neither a description nor proper intel on him. Yet Mason somehow got an entire file.“I don’t think so,” I answered. “This is my first time in the city.”“Wow. That’s amazing. Dakota’s a really chill city once you get to know it.”“I’m sure it is.” I tried to move again.He blocked me off again.“Say, unless you’re in a rush, would you like me to be your guide for the night?”Say no. Say no. He’s your mission and this could go very, very—“Say yes,” Mason said through the

    TIFFANYIt’d been so long since I felt the warmth of a classroom.The buzz of a lecture theatre right about now would do wonders for me.But I knew, in my predicament, that was impossible.I’d have to settle for the gentle whoosh from the air conditioner that gifted this room something other than the staleness that engulfed it.As it was for most of my lectures, I was early.Waiting at my table, playing with my pen, staring at the door to click open.And when it finally did, my “lecturer” tonight wasn’t a middle-aged professor with a smile that could light up a hundred rooms.It was Mason Sinclair, a trained assassin who probably couldn’t believe he was doing this right now.“You’re late.”“Shut up,” he groaned, eyes heavy with lethargy. “Pack up. Pick up whatever you need. We’re going on a trip.”“Excuse you?” I shifted in my seat, but he walked back out like he didn’t even hear the words.Tsk.I snatched my notebook off the table and rushed out of the room, only to be blocked by his
