‘Yes, sorry, I didn’t mean to say that through the mind-link. Everything is fine,’ she responded after a few moments of silence.

‘Fuck! I almost ran in there,’ Elias breathed out.

‘Evie, what the hell happened?’

‘I’ll explain later. I’m almost done. Get ready to look for me. It’s almost your turn, Adrien.’

‘Got it,’ Adrien answered, not bothering to ask why she was done so quickly. If she said she was almost done, we all trusted that she was.

We waited a few more minutes before Evie finally talked again.

‘I’m done. Come and get me, Elias.’

‘On my way. Start Adrien.’

‘On it,’

It only took a few minutes before Adrien started his show. He stood and pointed a finger angrily at the man to his right.

“Will you stop playing footsies with me?! I have a boyfriend! Sure, we’re fighting right now, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be cheating on him with the likes of you!”

Everyone looked over at him, and I smirked at the flabbergasted look on the poor man’s face.

“I-I didn’t. I-what? I’m not gay!” He squirmed with a shocked expression.

“Please, everyone’s seen you making googly eyes at me all night. I felt the foot. I thought the first time was an accident, but there’s no such thing as ten accidents in a row. Keep your toes to yourself, because if I feel them pushing up towards my dick again, I’m going to break them!” Adrien warned.

“Fuck, that’s hot! It was me playing with your feet, actually,” the man on the right of him said, slurring his words and surprising Adrien when he stood up and smashed his mouth on Adrien. It took him all of two seconds to react before he pushed the drunk stranger off.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” he sputtered, his face going red, and I could feel his aura trying to slip. I stood up loudly, trying to bring him back under control.

“I can’t take you fucking people anywhere. Let’s go. Where the hell is Arthur and Ava? I swear to fucking God, if they’re fucking again, I’m going to be done with all of you!” I yelled as I stalked to the other side of the room.

I grabbed a stunned, angry Adrien and his chip rack and had the cashier cash all four of us out. I looked out the now open door and saw Elias and Evie were walking toward us, so I started yelling at them from the door while the hostess worked as fast as she could so we could stop disturbing the rest of her expensive clientele. Before we could leave, the man that kissed Adrien came over and put his card in Adrien’s suit pocket, winking at him before heading back to his seat.

We were escorted out, and the limo driver came around to pick us up.

“Alright, what the hell happened?” I asked when the limo took off.

Chapter Twenty-One

Evie

“Go splash some water on this pretty face before I mark it,” Cory growled at me, and I wondered if there was something wrong with me, because while I was giving him a look of fear for the sake of appearances, his words and the way he grabbed me were turning me on so much. He slapped my ass hard enough to sting when I stood and walked outside, suppressing the shiver of delight and desire. The guard at the door let me out with a hot look on his face that made me a little uncomfortable, but I walked toward the little spot where I knew Elias would be waiting for me.

“Did you get a look at the hall?” I whispered when I found him.

“Yes, it should be no issue. Are you ready?” he asked. I nodded, putting a hand over my mouth to stop the surprised squeak I knew I would try to let out when we were on the other side of the teleport. It was weird to feel your body blink and your surroundings change in a microsecond. He counted down with his fingers to give me as much time as possible to brace myself. I bit down on my tongue painfully to stop myself from shrieking when we appeared at the end of the other hall around the corner from the one we were just at. The guard’s elbow didn’t move from where he stood to ensure no one got past him, so we continued on our way, around the corner, and came to a stop in front of the double doors that held the computer I needed. We listened intently from the outside but heard no noise or movement, so I tentatively pushed the door open and was thankful to see it empty. I breathed a sigh of relief and rushed straight to the computer to get started on my task.

“I’ll be outside keeping an eye for people coming around the corner. Let me know when you’re done,” Elias said, leaving the door open a crack in case he needed to teleport and get us out of here.

I started by placing the tiny bug I’d designed a few years ago. It was one of my more lucrative inventions. It was designed to record, offline, two hours of footage and sound, then piggyback onto the server and send the footage in a tiny burst signal to an email that couldn’t be traced, then it disconnected from the server and continued to record offline. Rinse and repeat.

While it didn’t give us live footage, the way it worked allowed it to be practically undetectable. It’s a small device and looks like a button, so I stuck it under the monitor screen where only computer techs need to look, before I turned the monitor on and pulled out my phone.

It wasn’t my normal phone. I left that one at the hotel. This one was one of the wiped phones we took from the men who attacked us with enough disk space to copy a full hard drive onto it. I also had one of Dad’s viruses updated for today’s technology and security systems, and my own program on it. I needed to connect it to the server in order for it to bypass the login and security system in this place.

Then I pulled out my USB stick with my program that allowed me to play in their system in safe mode while I needed it. It was designed to wipe any trace of what we did to the computer while we were on it when it disconnected.
