Chapter 18 - company

"Aren't you curious about last night." He said trying to gauge her reaction.

" You tucked me to bed , I am sorry for the inconveniences but if you would excuse me would like to have a moment for myself " she said hoping he would leave .

" Fine I would leave but whenever you have trouble sleeping you are always welcome to my room I might have other ways to make you sleep " he said and walked out of the room nonchalantly.

Lena sighed and sat on the bed , lost in thought maybe she will have to quit this mission for real it's driving her crazy coupled with the fact that she doesn't take her medication , her mental health is at stake here she reasoned to herself. She now change her clothes in the bathroom to avoid him running into her naked . Sighing again she lay on the bed to have a little rest judging from the fact she didn't sleep last night at this rate she is not gonna be able to concentrate and Ma is not responding to the messages she sent her.

(Dinner room 7:00am)

Everyone is sitted at the dinning table with Cora picking on Ciara , Lena searched them with interest wondering how fun it is gonna be to with her sister and playing around and being snapping the thought out of her mind, she is not supported to do that she said to herself.

" How was your night brother" Cora asked her senior brother.

" Horrible , I had to babysit somebody here and the annoying part is that she snores while sleeping" Corvus said with a sigh.

" Oh , but you have to actually babysit her if you don't want to and for correction she don't snore , thanks for the meal" she said and walked out.

" What is with the temper" he murmured.

" Keep an eye on Lena I want you to know who she works under and Cora try to get close to her to know if you can find anything to help us know her motive" he said with a cold expression on his face.

" What is going on with brother, he is being unnecessary lenient on her ' Ciara said thoughtfully.

" Who won't , she seem to be a lonely person to me" Cora said.

" That's not our business Ciara, she pointed fingers at brother " Ciara reminded her.

Fine , I accept she pointed fine at brother but what if she did that inorder to get his attention and not the other way round " Cora pointed out.

" You are sick" Ciara said as she made her way out of the dinning room.

"Don't get me wrong , but whenever I am with her I feel connected like we are more than friends " Cora expressed.

"She is using you Cora and don't bro hear about this or you are in for it " she advised her sister as she made way to prepare for a mission.

" Duh, you are unbelievable " Cora complained as she went after her.

They entered the basement where all weapons and equipment for each mission is kept and picked up what they came for each.

"Who did Mr Raymond want us to kill this time around " Cora said.

"One of his workers who made away with his money " Ciara said as she passed a document to Cora.

"He is his accountant , he has a wife with two kids but sleeps around in hotel with women , currently at willdon hotel " Cora read out .

They entered their car and left , immediately Lena followed suit through the backdoor , she tried reaching out Ma again and it went through " currently following them...

" Stop following them and go back your target should be Corvus bank get his diary and come back home immediately " the person on the other end said and cut the call.

What is with the change of mission again , she didn't even talk about giving me my medicine , " damn it " she cursed out loud .

Turning around to go back she met Corvus in front of her .

" Where are you going to " he asked with a cold expression on his face.

" Taking a walk" she said with a straight face.

" That's not the route to follow , next time use the front door " he said as maid his way to his car.

" Where are you going " she asked.

" Why do you ask " he returned the question.

" I am bored to death and I wanted some company" she suggested.

" I have no company to offer you , the only company I can give is in bed that is if you are interested " as he entered the car.

" Wait!! , are you serious about the fact that I can come to your room" she inquired.

" Yes , if you need my company" he said emphasizing on my.

" Ok , how are my sure that I will like being in your company" she inquired. This is the right time to strike and know where he keeps his diary she thought to herself.

" That's for you to decide" he said as he made to start the car.

" Please can I be in your company now if I am comfortable I might decide to spend some time with you at night too" she said.

" Are you offering to sleep with me " he said.

" Yes , if I like being in your company " she said emphasizing on if.

" And if you don't " he inquired.

" Considering the fact that you are popular among women , it will be a shame if you are boring to be with "she said trying to poke his ego.

"Get in the car " he said with a smirk as he started the car . Lena entered as well.

" Where are we going" she asked him .

" To a hotel " he said.

" What are we going to do there " she inquired from him .

" What married couples , usually do " he said.

" What do they do " she inquired curiously.

" Have sex" he said crudely as he smiled at her.

"What!! , you are supposed to keep me company"she complained.

" Yeah and that's what I am going to do , keep you company" he said and smiled at her.
