Viren's POV:

After leaving Blue in her cell I approached Jeff's office. I smiled internally when my eyes landed on his blistered wrists. He was doing a good enough job of hiding his fear but his pulse gave him away.

I paced in front of his desk while Jeff sat in his chair watching my every move as if I was about to strike him. If only he knew, if I wanted him dead he wouldn't see me coming unless I wanted him to.

"Have you started preparations on the breeding rooms? There was a small note in the file mentioning them, however it lacked any detailed information."

Jeff's posture relaxed at my question. "Yes Viren, the rooms have actually been finalised this week."

"Good." I nod. "What kind of equipment did you require? Have you hired the correct professionals?"

Jeff frowned looking at me oddly. "Sorry Viren but I'm not understanding what equipment and professionals you are referring to?"

I looked at him calm and composed, my mask concealing my confusion. "Don't you need equipment to remove eggs and keep them and the sperm viable, as well as professionals to impregnate the she wolves and monitor their progress?"

When Jeff bust out into laughter I stopped my pacing and turned towards him. "Oh Viren I was so worried I had missed something for a second." He had said wiping tears of laughter from his eyes as he attempted to compose himself. Irritation crawled under my skin like tiny insects biting and stinging my skin. The feeling making me want to claw at my flesh, but I squashed the sensation the second it came.

"Well, I am new to this project and as mentioned earlier the file I had, lacked details. Do enlighten me." My voice came out short, letting the smallest amount of impatience show, just enough of a warning to get Jeff back on track.

I watched as his laugh lines smooths out into a face of indifference. "It would be easier to show you, come with me." Jeff stood and held the door open for me with a fake smile on his face. He was enjoying my lack of knowledge, making him feel important and in charge. I'll need to remember to nock him down a peg or two once I have the information I need.

Jeff turned to a guard that stood at attention by the door. "No one is permitted in this sector for an hour, go help the other guards outside." The guard bowed his head before taking his leave.
"No one but Margo knows of this place, it has been created in secret, hidden from even my most trusted men."

"Let me guess, those who worked on this project were eliminated the second it was complete." I ask already suspecting the answer.
"Naturally." Jeff says with a tilt of his head and an eyebrow raised, a look that says; 'why bother asking.'

Jeff stopped walking when he spotted a large painting. It had a thick golden border with an intricate design weaved around it. A beautiful picture of a black pregnant wolf was painted on it. The wolf had dark red eyes which is not a usual colour for a wolf. Wolves have the same colour eyes as their human counterparts, just more vibrant. Some powerful witches and wizards can have similar eyes also.
"Let me guess, the painting opens up into a passage way." I state not surprised by it.

"Not entirely. Place your hand on the wolf's swollen stomach." Jeff instructed.

As I did my hand disappeared. "A hidden passage in plain sight. This must be Margo's doing."

Jeff nods his head before passing through. I followed, noticing a large lounge. It had plush charcoal carpets, soft recliner chairs and a large TV. Porn magazines sat on the coffee table with a few tissue boxes. Four doors caught my eyes. There were two on my left and two on my right.
