~ Los Angeles, Cliffside villa ~
In the study room, after the video conference with Aiden and Sarah…
"Haru… not here…", Nala protested weakly while holding onto his shoulders.
After exploring her body the whole night, Haru found more than one super-sensitive spot which makes Nala shiver.
His kisses trailed under her ear while his fingers circled on her lower back.
"It's just the two of us...", his hot breath splashed on her neck.
"Soone will co…", she reminded him.
"Then I will stop."
Few seconds later, the door opened, and Haru stopped kissing Nala. Seeing that she is dazed, he pulled her in his embrace.
"I told you that soone will co.", she whispered angrily.
"Let's go to your room." Haru said in a low voice while ignoring her anger.
She gave him a 'no way' look.
"Or we can go to mine…", he added with a smirk.
"Waaah! What is with this hugging so early in the morning?", Ade complained.
"Since those two started their joined missions… they seem to be closer.", Jamari teased.
"Of course, we are closer.", Haru interrupted whatever next teasing was coming from Masika and Imani who ca with Ade and Jamari. "When you experience dangers and rely on each other to stay safe, you grow closer to your teammates."
Ade and Jamari made faces and then swiftly hugged each other.
"Ah, Ade! Our mission was so dangerous that I feel like hugging you.", Jamari said dramatically.
"Harder, Jam! Hold harder.", Ade snickered.
Everyone laughed. Those two are comical.
Nala's laugh turned into a sneer. "Since you have the energy to ss around, how about fifty laps on the longest trail? The new boys are out training. Why are you slacking off?"
The boys from Sierra Leone are so eager to prove themselves, that they are always training or studying (unless they are resting or eating). But these four are too relaxed. At this rate, in few months the newcors will bridge the gap in skills and take over leadership positions which are assigned to the strongest ones.
Jamari's and Ade's face fell. Masika and Imani stopped laughing as well.
"You can't do that!", Ade protested.
"I can.", Haru said smugly. "Boss Aiden put in charge until they return. If you are not out there running in five minutes, it will be a hundred laps and I will tell to both Sarah and Aiden about your disobedience."
Haru knows very well that rebelliousness is disciplined by increasing the punishnt. He learned that while staying with Master Hollow. That, and he wants to support (and impress) his girlfriend.
Ade and Jamari lowered their heads and walked out while dragging their feet. Masika and Imani watched them.
"All four of you!", Haru reminded the girls.
When the four downcast jokesters walked out, Haru looked at Nala and a sly smile creeped on his face.
He leaned closer and licked the edge of her earlobe before whispering: "It will take them at least two hours for fifty laps, so… your room or mine?"
Nala lowered her gaze. "The closer one."
Haru smirked. "My room it is."
~ Austin, the White Mansion ~
"I thought I will not see you before we head out.", Sophia said to Sarah and Aiden when they entered to the dining room (for lunch).
JoAnna, Jeff, Sophia and Felix finished their als and were chatting at the table while enjoying deserts (third serving for Sophia).
"Sorry we are late. We had sothing urgent to take care of…", Sarah said while trying to suppress her smile.
Sophia only shook her head. Based on Sarah's and Aiden's expressions she can guess what that 'sothing urgent' was. And she didn't miss that JoAnna and Jeff are grinning as well. Ah, in seven days it will be six weeks from how their precious baby-girl ca to this world, and then she will handle so urgent matters with her handso husband as well.
They all shared their progress with the current status.
Besides starting with their roles in the White family organization, each of them also has a task to evaluate people and to see if any of them could be a potential spy working for Marcus (or maybe soone else). Eve helped in tracking bodily responses and estimating if any of the people was hiding sothing. Everyone suspicious will be subjected to JoAnna's truth serum and interrogation by Mason and his people.
"We will head out in half an hour. Do you want us to take any of your kids with us to Los Angeles?", Sophia asked when their business-talk was over.
Sarah rejected Sophia's offer. "We have work in the area tonight, and it will be good for them to get an exposure. We will return to Los Angeles later tonight or tomorrow morning."
Sarah and Aiden will go in the evening to check out the fight clubs and to see the latest batch of 'Chaos hopefuls'.
They will go in three teams.
One will be Sarah and Aiden and they will take the four boys from Sierra Leone with them: Allen, Julius, Tejan and Daniel. The boys said they want to join the fighting force (aka the security, aka bodyguards), so this will be a good experience for them. They can even participate in arena fights if they wish. Sarah also hopes to et Blackstain, a person who Aiden marked as trustworthy, but Sarah didn't get a chance to et in-person so far.
Second team will be Jesse and Oni and the third one Ron and Zula.
Sarah and Aiden trust that Jesse and Ron can independently do the initial assessnt of 'Chaos hopefuls', and Oni and Zula can learn from them. They will finish after midnight, and plan to return to Los Angeles after their tasks are completed, which will be early in the morning, probably.
"Work in the area?", Sophia noticed Sarah's choice of words. She knows that they are busy with people from the White family, but that is on this property and not 'in the area'.
Sophia's question reminded Sarah that her big sister and Felix don't know about their involvent with the army of Chaos. They need to tell them, but she does not want to risk being overheard by a passing staff mber.
"Uhm… yeah. There few things we will tell you when we get back.", Sarah told Sophia.
Sophia saw that Sarah is secretive and she has so guesses of her own: "Is it related to all the drones Felix is making for you?"
"Yes."
Sarah was happy that Sophia didn't ask further questions.
Sarah turned to JoAnna. "I hear you are housing a bed climber? Why didn't you get rid of her so far?"
JoAnna rolled her eyes. "If it's simple as getting rid of her, I would do it right away. But I want to play with her a bit. At the sa ti, the mont she sees , she will realize that it's ga over… so I'm still thinking…"
Sarah's eyes sparkled. "Are you open for ideas?"
"Sure… You got so?"
"Always." Sarah grinned while thinking about two blonde wigs she has in her suitcase. She packed them in case she and her sister need to take their Russian-bodyguard persona. You never know when those might co in handy.
