Cole X Geo Novels & Stories

All that mattered was right now. I took a quick shower and threw on some clothes before leaving with Cole. One of his father’s drivers dropped him off to pick up his Chiron, which is what we left in. Almost lovingly, Cole ran his hands over the imported leather and steering wheel, letting out a sigh of relief when he noticed everything intact. “Ye’ of little faith.” I commented, turning to look out the window as a smirk crept across my face. Cole chuckled, flattening the long strands of his hair that had been blown out of place from him opening the window. He glanced at me as he turned onto the main road, grinning confidently.

LILY POV I ran into my apartment, and my shaking hands caused me to fumble with the keys. I felt an increased heartbeat, and a jolt that was similar to seeing a ghost. No, worse than a ghost. Isaac. He was back, and he owned the entire Equinex Company and Equinex Lab was just a part of it. I had walked right into his territory without even realizing it. How could I have been so blind?

Mr Swan says and points to Cole, the class clown/school jock/ my boyfriend. The class laughs and hoots as Cole stands up and takes a bow as if Mr Swan gave him a compliment. “Sit down please” Mr Swan says irritated. “Your boyfriend is so cool” Gea says from behind me. I look back at her and my eyes collide with Leo he looks away quickly. “I know right” I say not really meaning it. I am all about having a good time but I take my education seriously. When I’m in class I switch everything off but Cole doesn’t do that. It’s always play time for him.

“Call me weak all you want, Cuz, but I don’t want to die just yet. I haven’t found my mate, you know.” George snorted, knowing that Leo was serious, even if he was a playboy like Rick. His eyes drifted to the car in front of them. It was a black SUV with tinted windows and a license plate that read “George.” It was the car they were following, and it seemed to have been abandoned. “T-That’s the car,” Jack said, pointing at the SUV. “That’s the car he stole, the GPS stopped here.”

Then suddenly, a shiny metal beast roared past, tires humming against the pavement. Keenan jumped back, eyes wide in alarm. “What manner of beast was that?!” “That,” Geoff chuckled, “is a car. They’re everywhere. Mostly harmless, unless you’re not paying attention.” Keenan examined the sleek vehicle, as if trying to decipher its strange anatomy. “It... moves without legs. A strange, powerful creature.” Geoff nodded, amused. “You’ll get used to it. But let’s start slow. There’s a whole world out here, and I want you to see it all.”

Leo was using his new connection to the city's geothermic core—the connection that had turned his legs to stone—as a deep-subsurface antenna. He was reaching through the ground, past the perimeter, toward the GBCA crawlers idling on the ridge. He was hunting for the source of Halloway’s confidence. He was looking for the ledger. "Found it," Leo whispered. The word was a metallic chime that rattled the marrow in my teeth. Leo didn't look at Halloway. He didn't defend himself against the accusations of the mob. He stared at the floorboards, his gold flecks flaring with a lethal, ancient clarity.

Once they got into the car, Georgie turned on the engine and asked, “President Xyla, what exactly is going on with Emily Quest?” Xyla told Georgie Clementine about the bet between her and her sister. Georgie could not help but roll her eyes. “She really is in a rush to get herself killed.” “Based on how well I understand her, I think we are about to witness a good show, Georgie,” Xyla said softly with a pleased smile on her face. “Leave the rest to me…” Georgie said. Within a second, the red Maserati took off like a rocket and soon merged with the road traffic.

“What’s this about Sean Harris coming to see you a week ago?” Cole flinched. Sweat crawled down his temples. “That— that was just talk, Kelz. I thought I’d scare the dame. Nothing to it, I swear.” “The boss doesn’t like his dames scared,” Kelz said flatly. He leaned forward. “Pull over here, Slize.” The car skidded to a stop beside a stretch of waste ground. Beyond it, the river waited like an open grave. Cole’s stomach dropped. “Kelz! Listen! I swear—”

he asked instead, his tone steady but edged with urgency. “Let’s see.” Leo patted his coat, then frowned. “Damn. I think I left my decoder in the car. Let me go get it.” He stood, but Denovon stopped him with a raised hand. “Sit. George will get it.” Almost on cue, George walked in. “Sir,” he greeted, his tone respectful as always. “George,” Denovon said, motioning with his chin. “Get Leo’s decoder from his car.” Leo tossed him the keys. “Black case.”
