“Aiden, what have you observed so far? Just tell me what might be important now! ”She took a deep breath and tried to concentrate. The sooner she got this over with, the sooner she could take care of Pareios and Row. With that aim in mind, she finally managed to channel the monster's restless anger. In order to be able to keep a cool head, she wrapped the thoughts of Pareios in a massive prison in the back of her head and carefully sealed it so that nothing could escape.Aiden checked the watch on his wrist. The watch glass was shattered, but the hands were still moving. It was 3:30 p.m. “At four o'clock every day, a courier comes to the center who brings documents from the executive suite. I found this in the lists of the security personnel that we still had from Markus' informant. If we manage to intercept it ... ""Then we could replace him!" Aurelia finished his sentence and was already two steps further with her head. Aiden's suggestion was more

In the stairwell they exchanged clothes again. Aurelia grabbed her cap and bag and this time she went first. "You will follow me in five seconds!" She hissed at him as she left the stairwell. Before she turned around the wall in front of it, she put on her most charming smile and now headed for the two security guards again. The dark-haired man recognized her immediately and showed his suggestive grin from earlier.She stopped at the counter, pulled herself up a little and leaned her upper body far over the reflective marble surface. She put her elbow up, raised her hand and curled her index finger a few times so that the dark-haired man leaned over to her. So he did, although he looked rather perplexed. His colleague watched the situation spellbound. She bridged the small space between their heads with one jump and pressed a quick kiss on the cheek, but suspiciously close to the right corner of his mouth. Aiden used the surprise of the two guards to sneak past Aurelia's back

Under a bridge a few kilometers further they stopped and waited, so far they had been spared from pursuers. This was their meeting point, where Aiden and Viktor were supposed to pick them up. Her footsteps echoed under the stone vault, but Aurelia could still hear the distant sound of the engine of a car. Finally he came to a stop directly above them, tires screeching. They left their cover, struggled up the small slope, and escaped into the interior of a small old Renault Clio.Viktor lurched the cart sped up and pressed the gas pedal to get it out of town as quickly as possible, it would soon be blocked off with roadblocks. He took a hidden dirt road directly through the Grunewald and only used regular roads again in Potsdam.Row was on Aiden's lap in the passenger seat. He mumbled to Viktor: "Damn, I can't believe this daredevil shit worked!" Then he cradled Row in his arms and talked quietly to her. This looked torn and worn, but now it radiated a burgeoning calm.

“Christ, what do my eyes see here on this clear September morning? Viktor? I can't believe you're here! ”And now the voice cracked with unmistakable joy. “Old friend, come in!” He continued without hesitation and there was a loud hum, whereupon the heavy gate began to part in the middle. The small gap widened quickly as the wings slowly swung open. Until they stopped in front of the entrance of the majestic three-story building, Aurelia silently admired the many battlements and turrets that made the house look more like a small medieval castle than a single-family home. There was a strange mixture of old and new, as the window and door frames glistened metallic and the lighting looked extremely modern.Aurelia herself had never seen Ezekiel face to face, but she knew him from many stories from Viktor, but also from other older residents of the bunker. Everyone described him as a rock solid, indestructible, controlled and intelligent. Unlik

Still nothing came and she didn't really want to pull it out, this last trump card, but it was the only one he had left her. "Honesty ...?" She uttered even more quietly and noticed even with surprise that it sounded almost pleading.Again his eyes sought hers. The risen sun shone sideways in his face and illuminates his right iris in all the colors that were inherent in it. Now the blue shone more than the gray and the fireflies looked more like bits of fiery coal. His long, dark eyelashes cast a shadow over the not too short but narrow nose."I met her when I was 15, it was the year 1737 ..." Pareios closed his eyes, as if trying to visualize old memories. “My powers had just started to show. At the time we were living in a legion base near Königsberg. Back then the world was still different, we weren't as many as today and the Hegeduns ruled more openly and cruelly. They gave themselves princely names to justify their rule and subjugated the people as wel
