TJ's POV
I've been pacing around the meeting room, waiting for someone to come in and tell me what they found about the masks. Did it really have to take this long to find something? We have plenty of people who work here that are great for this type of stuff. I groaned and finally sat down putting my head in my hands, just as I closed my eyes, I heard someone enter the room. The scent smelled like perfume and cologne. I looked up from my hands and looked who walked in. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me. They called you" I glared and looked at Cherry who looked chippy as ever.
She smirked and walked over to me putting a small laptop down. "Problem?" Her high snappy voice came out. "Hm, actually yes. Considering you're a dimwit for who knows why" I put the most fake smile I could ever create. She clicked her tongue then sat down in her extremely tight looking pencil skirt. Looked like she was struggling to breathe honestly. "Whatever, this is what I found on those weird masks you requested" She opened the laptop and pulled up a few documents, just information based documents with a few pictures of different styled masks.
"They're called Kabuki masks, the Japanese use them during theatre productions, like dramas and plays, but I guess in this case. Kidnapping" I nodded and urged her to continue "Since they're made in Japan, we do have shops here in America that you can purchase. The first place that popped up was Chinatown in New York. " I sighed and rubbed my forehead . "We don't have that much time. Who knows what they could be doing to her" I rubbed my eyes "But to be able to track these guys down, we're going to have to. Get us on a plane to New York, bring me our top four elite agents, a small squad and, three of our best tech agents. Now" I growled and felt my eyes change. She shrieked and backed away. "Y-yes" She quickly ran out of the room and slammed it closed.
This calls for a phone call I thought I would never call. Grabbing my phone I called Nelson Marks. One of my siblings ex boyfriend, also known as The Prince of New York. I have no idea how they met or got together, but I wished I killed him when I had the chance. But its my lucky day, he's getting a visit from me and he's going to hate it. "Hello?" He answered. His voice loud and clear through the phone, his voice is still kinda high. "This is TJ, I'm going to need a favour from you" I basically forced those words out from my mouth.
I heard him laugh like a mad man "and why should I help you ? After you got four of my men put in the hospital and wrecked my car?" I smirked proudly, "Because my girlfriend has been stolen by guys wearing masks that can be bought in your precious city, now help me or I'll see that your precious little city burn to ashes" I threatened and gripped the table. He gasped through the phone "Oh you wouldn't dare!" I practically heard the sarcasm loud and clear. "Try me. I have thousands of people that can take half the city in 20 minutes, imagine what they could do in a hour" I was getting frustrated. He wasn't helping, I'm going to have to force him now.
He was silent for a bit then he answered "Fine, do whatever you want. Ask for anything you want, just don't harm the city" I smirked "Good boy, thank you for your cooperation" I hung up on him and left the room to only be met by 8 agents. "Ah you must be the agents I requested" I smiled proudly. They all looked perfect for this mission too. "You must be TJ Summers correct?" one asked, also known at David Pilms third best elite. I nodded "Indeed" another perked up "Aren't you our top 1 elite agent?" our fourth best elite, Jennifer Kalei asked. I nodded once again.
"The one and only" The second and fifth elite agents didn't look very pleased with me, so it resulted me with looking directly at them. I quirked up my long eyebrow and narrowed my eyes. "Is there a problem, Jeremy Cast and Paula Torro?" I said lowly and taking small steps towards them "I don't think you're fit for top 1 Summers" Paula said in a snobby voice.
I smirked "Well nobody asked what you think. That's maybe why you're in fifth, because you state your opinions instead of showing. That means you aren't doing your job if you have enough time to speak your mind" I bit my lip, turning into a smile. "yes?" She gulped and nodded, then I moved towards Jeremy. "Now you, since she spoke her mind, what's on yours" He glared then answered with his deep raspy voice. "How are you still alive after every extremely dangerous thing you've done. Its like you're not human or something." Snickering from the inhuman agents came around. He shoved his hands in his pockets, keeping the glare plastered on his smug face.
I smirked and stepped back, my eyes changing from the light brown to an all black. "That's because I'm not human Jeremy Cast" I watched as their face change slowly. Five of them were human out of 8 I requested, not including me. "Oh please, don't start acting all surprised now, we don't have time for that. I assume you know about supernaturals correct?" The three nodded. "Excellent, that girl you heard about getting kidnapped, she's my mate. I need you 8, including my own squad to help me get her back, do you understand?" I asked dangerously low and looked at each and everyone of them in the eye.
They all nodded, except Paula. She just has to make this this situation difficult like right at this moment? She can be difficult all she wants after we're done. "Why should I risk my life for some mate of yours? She can just be replaced" All of us supernaturals looked at her with hate clearly shown in our eyes. "She cannot be replaced, but you certainly can"I wrapped my fingers lightly around her neck and my eyes glowed brightly,I was letting my wolf get the best of me. I was on the edge of letting her go, to tear this blonde up. Her eyes widened "She's that important?" I growled, "Incredibly." One of the supernatural agents put their hand on my shoulder. "Βασίλισσα, please. Remember the elders law." I sighed and let her throat go. David Pilms grabbed her shoulder and forced her to look at him.
"Think of it as your soul mate, like your forever and ever. You would risk anything for them. Do anything for them. Its the same for us too" I saw her eyes soften then she glanced at me. "Okay, when do we leave then boss?" I calmed myself and regain control. "In a hour, pack anything important or that would work for this mission, and pack a good set of clothes you wont know if you're getting messy or fancy just in case." They nodded and scurried away.
