John Corey Series Mga Nobela at Kwento

Corey POV I was in my house, in my office, catching up on paperwork and computer work. I made a few phone calls, and then I was done. I sat back in my chair, drinking a glass of scotch. Tasha asked why I drank this nasty stuff. I told her I liked it; it was my favorite to drink after a long day at work. I went into the accounts, making sure no one had tried to hack into them. There was nothing yet. Maybe somehow they knew what we had done, but they might not be that smart. After shutting off the computer, I was getting up to go and watch the football game that was about to come on when the landline started ringing. "Shit," I thought to myself. The landline never rang unless they didn't know

It was the confirmation enzo needed, if only to ensure he didn’t put the wrong man’s daughter through the wringer. “Software development,” she said, just like he knew she would. “But he’s retired, now. He tried to start his own company way back when, but it didn’t work out.” Goddamn right it didn’t work out. “He’s done mostly consulting work ever since. Maybe you’ve heard of him? Aron Rumero.”

he said, voice low but coiled with heat. Corey leaned back in his chair, lips curving into something that wasn’t quite a smile. “I didn’t call you. You came. Which means you need answers… or you’re afraid I already have them.” James’ jaw tightened. “I’m not here to play word games.” “Good,” Corey said, pushing the glass of whiskey away as though even the drink wasn’t worth breaking focus for. “Because this isn’t a game. This is about Janis. About who she really turns to when things get bad.”

My voice wavered, and I trailed off, swallowing hard. Corey gave me a soft smile, the kind that was rare for him. “Hey, I’m still here. It’ll take more than a psycho trying to destroy us to put me down.” I laughed, a sound that came out half-choked with relief. “I know. You’re impossible to get rid of.” He grinned. “Exactly.” As Corey stood, I followed him to the door, watching as he grabbed his jacket and stretched like he hadn’t been unconscious the night before.

Corey growled in pain, struggling to get over the fire and at the same time, stop Anthony. Corey used the windforce power and pushed Anthony backwards, slamming him against the wall. Then he pulled backwards in an extremely swift flying motion, simultaneously absorbing the fire. He was flying towards Anthony. Anthony used his power to freeze him in one place. Approaching to stab his claws into his chest, Corey broke free and stabbed his claws into Anthony's chest.

I goddamn deserve it, that's why! I, Corey price had come a long way since high school. I was no longer the meek, scrawny kid who got pushed around by assholes. I worked hard to get rid of the old Corey and change into who I am now. The new Corey Price. I worked out constantly so I could be strong. I kept my emotions under control and vowed not to fall in love with another man again. The new Corey was stoic and cool. And with my shiny new job, I was sure to be successful. I felt like I was invincible.
