Henri Kingston sat in his private office, watching his computer screen as it connected to a video conference call. On the screen, a woman in her fifties appeared, sitting at a desk in an official-looking office. She wore professional attire and had the demeanor of someone used to wielding authority.

This was Lara Reeds, the secretary of the Ohio Canal Regulatory Body. She was powerful in her own right, controlling one of the most important waterways in the world.

"Mr. Kingston," Lara said with a polite but guarded smile. "I received your request to speak. I must say, I was surprised to hear from you."

"The feeling is mutual, Ms. Reeds," Henri replied smoothly. "I appreciate you taking the time to meet with me on such short notice."

"Your people mentioned it was urgent," Lara said. "What exactly can I do for you?"

Henri leaned back in his chair, his fingers steepled thoughtfully. "I have a situation that requires a very specific solution. A solution only you can provide."

  • Under Silk Sheets   The Auction

    The day of the Reynolds charity ball had arrived. Outside the Riverside Estate, Marcus Night stood in a nondescript van watching multiple screens displaying camera feeds from inside the event. Beside him sat Eric August, Henri Kingston, and Evan Steele, all focused intently on the video feeds."How many of your people are inside?" Eric asked, watching servers and caterers moving through the grand halls of the estate."Eighteen," Marcus replied. "Disguised as waiters, security personnel, and kitchen staff. They're positioned throughout the event."On the screens, guests were arriving in expensive cars. Men and women in formal attire, dripping with jewelry and power, made their way through the entrance. The cameras captured it all."This is incredible," Henri said, watching the video feeds switch between different angles. "The amount of wealth and power in that building right now is staggering.""That's why we need to be careful," Marcus cautioned. "These people aren't just rich. They'r

  • Under Silk Sheets   Good friends Die together

    The video conference screen showed four faces arranged in boxes. Jessie sat in her home office with her phone propped up on the desk. Jason appeared from what looked like a bedroom. Kayla was in a car, driving. Leon appeared to be in some kind of office space."This has gotten completely out of control," Jessie said, her voice filled with frustration. "Between the government raids, the kidnappings, the arrests, and now Marcus holding Ernest Kent captive, I don't know how much worse things can get.""They can always get worse," Leon replied darkly. "That's the one guaranteed thing in this business.""I just want this to end," Kayla said from her car. "I want my life back to normal. I want to go to work without worrying that someone is going to come after me because of what my husband does."Jason nodded in agreement. "We're caught in the middle of something massive, and we have no control over it. We're just waiting for the next disaster to hit."The four friends had known each other f

    Old Madam Kent sat in her study, watching the news coverage of the government raids. Two days had passed since the warehouses were seized, and the public scandal showed no signs of dying down. Her phone rang constantly with lawyers, business associates, and concerned family members.But Old Madam Kent had made her decision. She would not sit helplessly while her family was destroyed. The mysterious voice on the phone had told her to wait and be patient, but she had not built an empire by being passive.She believed Marcus Night was responsible for the raids. And if that was true, then Marcus Night needed to be reminded that the Kent family was not an easy target.Ernest entered the study, looking exhausted. He had barely slept in two days, dealing with the fallout from the government investigation."Mother, the lawyers want to discuss plea agreements," Ernest said. "They think if we cooperate with the government—""No," Old Madam Kent interrupted sharply. "We will not cooperate. We wi

    The news spread like wildfire across the city.

Drugs worth hundreds of millions of dollars had been seized from their warehouses.In coffee shops and office buildings, people gathered around screens to watch the breaking news. Social media exploded with commentary, speculation, and outrage."This is unbelievable," one news anchor said, staring at the camera with barely contained excitement. "The Kent family has been a pillar of this community for generations. Their businesses employ thousands of people. And now we're learning they may have been operating a massive drug trafficking operation."The screen cut to aerial footage of the warehouse raids. Federal agents in tactical gear could be seen carrying boxes of evidence out of buildings. Drug-sniffing dogs moved through the warehouses. A

    Agent Miller and Rudder stared at Henry Steele seated waiting for them."You really are alive," Agent Rudder said."Mr Steele, you were a government informant before disappearing. As a lawyer, you should be aware that faking your death as an informant is a crime," Age t Cathy said."Because I am a lawyer, I know a voluntary informant is not bound by those rules, so don't try to scare me. Besides, are you sure you have time to be doing this?" Henry asked as he picked up his tablet form his desk and scrolled through the net."You wanted us to find you. You let us see you alive and well to draw us to search for you, Why?" Agent Miller asked."Well, I couldn't come to you, now could I?" Henry Steele said and handed the agents the tablet. They hesitated before agent Rudder stepped forward and took the tablet. It was news from a ship explosion. The Kent family's ship was found carrying cargo of drugs. The Kent family.
