311 No More Hands Than Necessary The conversation with Richard likely didn’t help Lena as much as the nasty coffee did. Bad or not, coffee was what the princess needed to help her get to focusing on what was in front of them. Issues with Jovani would have to be set to the side for the time being. Right now the focus needed to be on figuring out everything going on with the data he managed to get hold of. Whatever was in there would likely be able to help them figure out what the next move…

310 Do You Mind If I Lena couldn’t ask everyone to leave the hospital room, so she removed herself. Samuel wanted to come but she told him not to this time. Everything going on was messing with her head a little too much. So many people in such a small space didn’t leave much room for breathing. Something the princess desperately needed to do otherwise an explosion might occur. Heading over to the hospital’s coffee shop, she ordered a black with two espresso shots. The barista shot her a…

309 Way Too Much i𝑛𝓷𝙧𝘦𝚊d. 𝚌o𝓶 There was quite a bit of commotion coming out of the hospital room by the time Jovani returned. Far more than he’d expected there to be despite the information that they were going to be looking at. “How are you going to be able to get through all of this?” “I think that is likely a pattern to the way it should be processed and organized.” Julian and Lena’s voices were the two most prominent ones. “I honestly don’t know. I think…

308 This is Going To Be Good Jovani excused himself before anything even started. Alonso had come back and they needed to talk. The right-hand man didn’t seem as though he were in a very good mood. “You handled everything, didn’t you? I don’t see what the problem is then.” Jovani chose to talk to the other outside. “The problem is that that isn’t how things were supposed to go.” Alonso ran a hand through his hair in a rather agitated manner. “Do you even understand what it…

307 Next Steps Almost as if on cue, there was a knock on the door. Hester only entered after Julian confirmed it was safe to. He brought along a rather large briefcase. “I wasn’t sure what was required so I brought along a few things.” Shifting away from the door frame, he set the briefcase in a corner before casting a glance at the boss lying in the hospital bed. “Before things go any further, Jovani and I need to go have a chat.” She handed her phone off to Hester before indicating…

306 This Information The doctor had come and gone before Lena began to wake up. Even though she only took one of the sleeping pills, it still had a heavy effect. The blanket was so warm that she didn’t want to get out from under it at first. Being aware that they were still in the hospital made her want to move even less. Waking up and facing such a rough reality didn’t ever become easier despite it not being the first in this kind of position. 𝙞𝚗𝓷𝗿𝚎аd. 𝙘𝒐𝚖 She…

305 All is Fair in Love and War Samuel’s head felt fuzzy as he began to return to consciousness. The brain fog was heavy he couldn’t remember everything at first. Feeling a small lump resting against his quickly brought him back to reality. They were still at the hospital. Blinking, Samuel rubbed his eyes to try and get rid of the rest of the tiredness he felt. The only result though was making his vision blurry. How long exactly had he been asleep for? i𝑛n𝓻ℯ𝘢𝒅. Coｍ He…

304 Little Devil “Now now. I know how you are feeling right now but we really need to put this on hold.” Jovani put a firm hand on her shoulder causing a harsh glare to be directed at him. He’d allowed her to take things further with the alcohol but even he could see the man needed a break. They needed information out of him but it wouldn’t do them any good if he ended up dying. “Didn’t we just have this conversation a few moments ago? I told you before that I’m not done yet.” She…

303 Doing It The Hard Way Lena had to give the man credit, he was holding out much longer than she expected. Thirty minutes and most people would’ve been ready to give away even their most private personal details. The man in front of her however hardly even screamed. Not to say he didn’t make any noise to indicate pain. He just didn’t make the noises the princess expected him. Experience told her that the gag she’d put back in place hardly ever kept the noise down once they really started…

302 Unavoidable Call Jovani wanted to stay back and watch what Lena would. It wasn’t often one got the chance to see the Red Scorpion Princess in action. Everyone knew the tales of the kind of person father used to be. Lena didn’t have many rumors surrounding her in that regard. Not yet at least. However, before the fun even started, Jovani ended up having to leave the room once his phone started ringing. Bad timing for a call he couldn’t ignore to come through. “You couldn’t have waited…
