Near the Dark Pearl night club, a blue SUV was waiting in the parking lot. Inside those tinted glass windows, two people dressed in black were discussing something with each other. Rui was getting more and more nervous.
" Alan! Did you read the file I gave you in the afternoon."
Alan rolled his eyes " No."
" Why?"
" Why would I ?"
" I told you to read it"
" no. you didn't."
" Yes I did."
" No. You did not."
Rui remembered, she actually said nothing at that time regarding the file, " even though I didn't. Don't you think you should read it, out of curiosity?"
Alan glared hard at her, " After all the time I have spent with you, my curiosity is gone. I just don't want to be curious about you. I have no trust in you."
" What are you even talking about?"
" Oh. You don't remember. But I do. I remember once you gave me a USB drive out of the blue. I thought it was related to some project. So, I plugged it in. But it was our little Rui's porn collection. And the other time, you gave me a brown bag in school cafeteria, out of the blue. I thought it was lunch for me. But no, it was tampax. You know, I could go on and on about this. Rui look at yourself and then tell me how can I be curious anymore."
Rui buried her head in shame. " I am sorry. I feel like I stole your innocence. Ugh, I feel guilty yet so proud about it."
Alan smacked her head, " Can you say something sensible now? We are here for a mission, you know."
Rui picked up her phone and showed him several pictures, " You see this is the person we are following. His name is Mark Richards, the heir of Richards group. He is our target. According the information collected so far, he is nineteen years old. He is neither into drugs, nor into some shady business. There just this one thing- everyday he visits an alpha in this bar and spends the night thereu. It is suspected that he has a gay relationship with another Alpha called Ben. Other than that, my dad has no other information about him. You see, it amounts to nothing. And also the evidences are ambiguous. Alan, We gotta do it bro. We have to finish this. Now, all we gotta do is wait until he arrives, follow him in and take some pictures of him with his partner."
Rui paused and looked at Alan.
Alan was staring at the photo, sitting in a daze as if he was lost, " Alan! Al! Hey, Alan!"
Alan was surprised, " Yeah."
" Hey, Are you alright? Why are you looking at this photo so attentively. Do you like him or something? He may look handsome but he is a spoiled rich man. Don't fall for the looks Alan. Come on, you deserve someone better than that."
" Shut up! It's not because I like him . For a second there, I blacked out and….."
Before Alan could finish, Rui pinched his hands " Look, it's him."
A person dressed in blue suit stepped out of the car. He was tall and the royal blue color complimented his skin tone. His built was huge enough to make one feel intimidated. All his long grey hairs were combed up. He was neat and tidy. Even though he was dressed like aristocrat, his whole person exuded the aura of an assassin. A look from him was enough to make people tremble with fear. His eyes were blue yet they were cold as ice. He was not like any other alpha. He was more like a death god with a bone chilling aura.
Alan was dumbstruck, his whole body trembled and it was not fear that he felt. He could feel that his pheromones were becoming unstable in the presence of that man. He was in trouble. He was about to tell Rui that they should go back when the car door opened and Rui stepped out. " Come on, lets go."
Alan followed after her, a little worried. Rui entangled her arm into Alan's arm. " Let's go, dear." They looked like the perfect couple as they followed Mark Richards slowly.
On the other end, Mark also realised that someone was following him. He was an alpha after all. Rather, he was an outstanding alpha. He was easily able to detect the scent of two omega in the air. Yet, he remained calm.
He was a popular person. It was not the first time that he was being followed by omegas. There were several instances where omega used their scent to seduce him. He was unscathed, but this time, he was not so sure about his prowess. The scents that he detected were very strong. They were denser and sweeter than the omegas he had met so far. If these people decided to use their pheromones, then there is a huge chance that he will give in to the temptation. If it was just one omega, he may have made it through, it but there were two. He changed his tracks and went to a nearby convenient store. As expected, two minutes later, those two omegas came in too.
He decided to call someone for help. He went to the beer aisle and called his brother," hello. Yeah brother, I have arrived....No, there is a problem.... There are two omegas following me... No, I am not afraid of omegas. Its just both of them have unnaturally strong scent. I don't think I can resist that...Yes...Yes... No need for you to come, just send guards to escort me. Okay... Thanks." Mark hung up and then went to another aisle.
It was his first time in a convenient store. So, he looked around in awe. Then he stepped into the snacks aisle, there were candies. So many delicious candies. Mark took the cart and started filling it with chocolates and candies. He was blinded by the glitter and shimmer of those candies. He almost forgot the fact that he was being followed. Oh, such is the magic of candies and chocolates in the snacks aisle.
12 meters away, Rui and Alan were looking at the cart full of candies.
" What is he doing? ", Rui whispered.
" I have no idea. Wait, are you recording this?"
" Yes. Important information, he is a sweet tooth. Isn't that the reason that we are following him."
" what? How is this even important? ...Whatever. Go on."
Five minutes later,
" Alan, I feel hungry."
" Me too."
" Should we get some ramen until he is shopping?"
" I think so too."
While the target was on a candy craze, the detectives were sitting side by side, sipping spicy noodle broth. Two idiots dressed in formal black, adorned in some accessories and wearing extravagant clothes were now sitting in convenient store, totally lost in taste of noodles. Some detectives they were. They were so out of place that even a four year could tell, something fishy was going on. However,these two were still confident as hell, totally ignorant of the fact that there cover was blown before they even started.
Now we all know, why Rui's dad has his doubts about her daughter.
