By the time Kal was finished with Camille, she had been exhausted and her limbs had felt like jelly. They had spent that Saturday talking and when they weren’t talking, Kal was finding different ways to pleasure Camille until she was trembling like a newborn fawn. It had been amazing and Camille had spent Sunday smiling like an idiot even when she got another headache and collapsed into bed early, exhausted and feeling rotten. She was looking forward to her date with Kal as well. He was smart, funny, sweet, sexy and if what he could do with his hands and mouth was any indication, he was amazing in bed too.
Monday sadly didn’t have the same sense of euphoria as the weekend did but the prospect of confronting Jag was very sobering.
Heading into the Ark, Camille made a beeline for Donnie's office. She had been reciting her speech to herself over and over again and she had convinced herself that if she did have to face Ja
You are not going back to that man!โ Camille was pretty sure that if their door was capable of being slammed, Jag would have slammed it as he stormed into their apartment behind her. She had known her plan wouldnโt go down well but that didnโt deter her from it. She had all but made up her mind. If this was their only shot at flushing Nathan out of his hiding place then Camille was going to make sure they took it. It was one thing when it was just her being victimised but now innocent bystanders were getting hurt. โCamille!โ The warning growl pulled the blonde from her thoughts and she turned to face her male. She wasnโt surprised to see his anger or the concern in his eyes and yet it still made her heart ache. Despite his gruffness and stoic exterior, Jag still had emotions and right now, he was as equally scared as Camille was about the whole situation. It felt like the walls were closing in around them with combat quickly becoming the only way out. They couldnโt let that happen
Camille wouldnโt lie, she was still suspicious of Siaโs motives and yet as agreed, she was sitting at a small round dining table that Sia had insisted on being set up in Sidโs room. She could still see in her mind the look on the doctorโs face when she had seen what was going on.โThis isnโt a hotel!โ โAre you telling me that you would deny a mother the chance to eat dinner with her son after he nearly died?โ Sia had been as intimidating as ever in that moment. It wasnโt that she was aggressive or threatening violence but she certainly made it clear how difficult she would make everyoneโs life if she didnโt get her way. Just her presence commanded attention and respect like a General in front of their men.Needless to say, the doctor had quickly walked away, putting an end to the disagreement.In a way Camille was impressed. It took skill to be able to carry something like that off without barely saying anything. But Camille also had dealt with enough intimidating people in her life
โYou should be resting.โ โI could say the same to you.โ Camille frowned at Sidโs retort, watching as the giant male moved himself carefully from his bed to a wheelchair with all the precision of someone who had done this before. It was only when Sid had made himself comfortable that Camille took a seat in one of the chairs on the hospital room. Outside fat droplets of rain pelted against the window turning the grey sky, buildings and lights from vehicles and signs into watercolour. Somewhere above them, thunder rolled across the skies. It had been several days since the incident in the tunnels and since then, all anyone could talk about what Nathan and Tina. Their pictures were plastered on every news channel, newspaper, website and social media platform just like Jag had promised. Not only were the military looking for them but so were NYPD and the FBI. There was literally nowhere to hide and yet they had both gone to ground. Predictably EFHA were resisting any pressure to give u
For what had to be the umpteenth time in the last forty eight hours, Jag found himself pressing the tips of his fingers into his closed eyes to try and relieve the pressure from a looming headache. He was careful to ensure that outwardly he appeared calm and unfazed but even the most seasoned soldier would find themselves fighting off a stress headache with everything that was going on. And it seemed like literally everything was going on and none of it was working in their favour. โDigital forensics turned up nothing on EFHA or Matthews.โ Kal announced as he walked into the room, dressed in his usual uniform and white hair neatly combed back. He looked like he had showered after a good nightโs sleep but that couldnโt be further from the truth. โThe only telling thing is that everyone fell into radio silence over usual channels about four months ago. They must have found new ways of communicating to ensure they were never tracked.โ โNot surprising. They would have known their digita
Camille didnโt even have a chance to register what Sia had just announced before the woman was off out the door. Speechless was perhaps an understatement for how Camille felt and she tried to get her brain to compute while also trying to dampen down the alarm and panic rising up inside of her. She didnโt want to go to Draygon. At least, not like this. Earth, despite all the history Camille had there, was her home and it hadnโt even crossed her mind to leave. That seemed absurd! At least, right now it did. She couldnโt imagine why she would agree to the whole thing but at the same time, Camille got the impression that her agreement wasnโt necessary. She had no time to object though. Everything around her moved on while Camille found her mind frozen in alarm. Before she knew it, she was standing in the infirmary hallway as Jag and Sia discussed something with the doctor. In fact, it was the warmth of someoneโs hand on her lower back that helped ground Camille once again. โYou look like
The scent of coffee and the feeling of Hunterโs snout bumping against her hand roused Camille from her slumber. She felt like she had slept for a lifetime and yet her exhaustion was bone deep, weighing her down. Trying to open her eyes felt like a struggle but in the back of her mind she realised that it was now morning and hopefully Sid had made it through the night. That glimmer of hope was enough to chase away the last foggy layers of sleep from her head and Camille forced her eyes open. It took a couple of blinks for the sleep to leave her vision and everything to come into focus, but eventually Camille found herself staring at Hunter as he rested his giant head on the edge of the bed. The poor guy could sense something was wrong and hand been pacing the apartment. He looked tired and miserable which Camille could relate to all too well. โYouโre awake.โ Camille glanced up, her exhausted mind taking a moment longer than necessary to register that Jag was stood in the doorway of h
