"So, what about you tell me, Julian," Chen started, his tone coming off a bit smooth and sharper now than before.

"What exactly do you invest in?"

I smiled faintly, but with a deliberate move, carefully swirling the champagne in my hand, more like the answer just and of bored me.

"Well, it depends on the season."

Chen didn't smile back, or dude didn't find it funny. "The season?"

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   Threats

    "So, what about you tell me, Julian," Chen started, his tone coming off a bit smooth and sharper now than before. "What exactly do you invest in?" I smiled faintly, but with a deliberate move, carefully swirling the champagne in my hand, more like the answer just and of bored me. "Well, it depends on the season." Chen didn't smile back, or dude didn't find it funny. "The season?" "Mmm," I took a slow sip, a way of buying myself a second to think properly. "Oil when the world kind of feels unstable. Then again is Tech, which is only when people pretend things are getting better. Then, I consider Art when I want to hide money in something pretty." His gaze remained intact, not wavering even for a second. "Specifics," Of course, that's what it's all about. I carefully let out a soft chuckle. "You are not very subtle, or are you?" "And, you're carefully avoiding the question." I tilted my head, but slowly studying him to ascertain if he was worth the effort. "Fine. But it would be

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   A Game or a Test?

    Elon's POV "I've heard through reliable sources that you have informations that I might find valuable in your possession. But if you must know, I don't ask for free...I offer entertainment in exchange for whatever you might be offering..."The moment I said that, Chen's eyes narrowed sharply, this time, like a paranoia. He quickly glanced around, before leaning closer to me. "What kind of information are you talking about?" "Well, it's the kind that keeps you ahead," I replied smoothly, carefully letting a playful smirk tug at the corner of my lips. "Supplier chains, to shipment routes...or you can consider it the sort of detail only made available for someone who isn't afraid to bend a few rules." I watched as his hand twitched slightly, moving toward his pocket, inside his suit. My pulse became alerted, and this wasn't because I was scared, but danger has a way of making everything sharper, and brighter. "I don't have the habit of giving my secrets to strangers," he said rather

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   The First Impression

    Elon's POV "Julian," Chen called all of a sudden, his voice very smooth, but yet cautious. "News reached me that you've been traveling quite a bit this days. From London to Paris...and at this rate, I imagine the jet lag must really be...""Very terrible," I interrupted, finishing for him with a small exaggerated sigh, comfortabley swirling my champagne with one hand. "Though, I have always thought that jet lag is just a polite excuse to tolerate bad manners. You're by all means supposed to land somewhere, meet new faces, or old ones, smile, though it might be all pretence, but in all, you should convince them that you belong. And for me? I end up getting jet lagged while pretending." This made Chen to raise an eyebrow, half smile carefully tugged at the corner of his lips."I see. So, you belong to the group that likes to.. perform?" "Well, that only happens when the stakes are interesting," I replied, leaning slightly to to him. "Otherwise, life would end up being dull. Don't yo

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   Too late to turn back

    Fort’s POVI stayed motionless for a long moment as the doctor patched me up, the sting of the needle and the warmth of the antiseptic barely registering. My mind wasn’t on the pain. My mind was on everything else. Dimitri had arrived fifteen minutes later, his expression tight, alert, calculating—always calculating, like he could already see ten moves ahead.“What’s next, boss?” he asked, voice low, almost deferential.“You need to rest a bit so your stitches heal,” the doctor said, adjusting the final suture.“Bullshit,” I growled, cutting him off. I swung my legs over the table edge, feeling the ache of the wound in my shoulder, sharp and insistent. Standing wasn’t optional. Breathing, yes; resting, no. I recocked my gun, the familiar weight comforting against my palm. Dimitri followed, silent but poised, the way he always was when the blood started to rise in me.&n

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   For the sake of a weakness.

    Fort’s POVI stayed motionless for a long moment as the doctor patched me up, the sting of the needle and the warmth of the antiseptic barely registering. I couldn't even focus on the pain, not when my mind was on everything else. Dimitri had arrived exactly fifteen minutes after Elon made the call and was dragged away, I know because I counted every painful second it took not to put a gun through their heads.As soon as Dimitri arrived I briefed him on everything that happened, while the doctor patched me up.He was smart enough to bring the doctor as backup too. One of the reasons he was my second.“What’s next, boss?” he asked, voice low, as the doctor sewed up the last stitch.“You need to rest a bit so your stitches heal,” the doctor said, adjusting the final suture.“Bullshit,” I growled, cutting him off. I stood to my feet feeling the ache of the wound in my shoulder and chest, sharp and insistent. I recocked my gun, the familiar weight comforting against my palm. Dimitri fol

  • DANGEROUS LIAISONS   The beginning of the worse 2

    Elon’s POVThey didn’t take me far.Just down a corridor, through a side passage, and into a room that felt like it had never seen daylight.The moment the door slammed shut behind us, Everything narrowed into something dark and suffocating.A single light flickered just enough to make everything feel unstable.They shoved me down into the chair.Hard.Pain shot up my spine as I landed, my hands gripping the edges to steady myself before they could see how much it hurt.“Sit still,” one of them barked.I didn’t respond.Just took in deep breathsLike I’d done a hundred times before.But this wasn’t like before.This wasn’t some drunk man in a hotel room.This wasn’t a con I could walk away from.These were trained me
