So I've rewritten this chapter 3 times with 3 different plots. I've gone for this option, I apologize if it seems rushed but hope you all like it.

I am updating alot because I've got alot to get through before I reach a certain chapter planned.

Clara never had enough money to go shopping or do anything she truly wanted to. The job came first.

After leaving his office she decided to leave before he changed her mind. She wondered if they would let her borrow one of the many cars they had. She decided it was worth asking but when she reached the garage she got told no.

But she was used to walking she walked. It was a fair walk to the nearest public transport and after the miles she had walked she was greatful to rest.

She decided on getting breakfast at a small cafe. And then she went looking for a dress, she had been told it was a tough area so she thought it wise to buy a cheap dress and paired it with some cheap heels.

She still had alot of money left so she decided she may as well get a few more clothes that were more her style. Since she got here, new clothes her size had been in her wardrobe. Damon of course had sent someone out to buy them.

When she finally got back she was confronted by a very annoyed Callum.

If there wasn't a job involved Callum was easy to talk to and made everyone laugh but when it came down to business, he expected everyone to do as they were told, he expected perfection. And if he didn't get it, they would see his dark side.

"Where the fuck have you been" he questioned.

"Your boss told me I could go out" she replied.

"He's your boss now to so show some respect. I am well aware you were allowed out but you were suppose to be back ages ago. Now I have to spend my own personal time catching you up on the job you have tommorow night" he snapped.

For a second she felt bad as it was quite late and Callum was taking his time out of his personal life just to catch her up but then she remembered it wasn't her fault. "Well it's not my fault. Maybe if you had your members allow me a vehicle I wouldn't have to walk several miles just to get to the nearest public transport"

Callum didn't know this. Everyone working for Damon had access to the vehicles. Even before today she should have had access.

"Fine. You better be a good listener because I do not repeat myself twice" he warned.

He began explaining everything they had so far. Everything she needed to know for tommorow night. And she memorised everything .

"Have you got any questions" he asked.

"Yes do you have the blueprints of this place. If I'm going to go undercover I want to plan for anything that goes wrong. I want to be able to see escape routes " she replied.

Callum nodded and walked towards a drawer and pulled out the blue prints. "This is strictly to observe you shouldn't be in any danger but if something does go wrong, Damon and I will be across the road. Have you decided on clothing yet?"

"Yes I got a dress why does that matter " she asked.

"So we can fit in a micro camera and make sure you have concealed weapons. You will be wearing two holsters on both legs, one will have a gun in and the other a knife. Make sure the dress isn't too tight, you don't want the outline showing" he explained.

"Okay. Can I ask why it's just you two. What if something big happens?"

"We have people on standby"


The next evening Clara felt nervous as she got herself ready, a cheap red dress. She made herself fit in with a rough area. Going for a cheaper look rather then expensive.

Damon was stood waiting when she went downstairs, Olivia was walking a bit ahead of her. Olivia looked more expensive, she would stand out more.

"Two different looks" Damon observed.

"Well I'm relying on my looks and charm. Ive never had a problem before dressing better then I should " Olivia stated.

Damon rolled his eyes and walked over to Clara, he stood in front of her analysing her.

"Now you're going to get really annoyed but the micro camera needs to be fitted" he stated.

"Okay so..." She trailed off not knowing what it meant.

"So we're about to get personal. Is that okay with you?" He asked.

"How personal" she asked slightly weary.

"I'm going to be fitting the camera right there" he said pointing to her chest/ middle of the neckline.

(This dress but slightly long enough it can cover a thigh holster)

"Is that okay?" He questioned again

She wondered why he was asking her. She has been fitted with cameras before but never asked if it was okay.

"Um yeah" she stumbled on her words.

"What about me" Olivia asked interrupting a moment of both Clara and Damon looking at each other.

"You are familiar with our cameras and how to fit them so you can do it yourself" Damon stated. He wasn't trying to be rude but he was slightly annoyed at how much of an attention seeker she had become. Olivia always fitted her own camera because she knew how to do it. They used higher tech than any other gang so he knew Clara wasn't familiar with it. He didn't particularly want to do Clara's either.

He pushed her hair back and with one hand around her back he pulled her closer. He gave her a reassuring smile when he saw how nervous she was. He then took the micro camera and fitted it on her dress.

He may or may not have took a little longer as he did like the view he had as he fitted it. But he made sure his hands remained on her dress nothing else
"As terrible as this will sound , they are fitted here because men will look here and we need faces. We know quite alot of her connections are male" he explained knowing she would ask why. He didn't break the distance even though he had finished fitting the camera.

"Although I want you to remain unseen if someone is making you feel uncomfortable you have my permission to make a scene" he explained.

"It's not my first time doing something like this" Clara replied although it was her first time having a boss care about her welfare, her old gang leader didn't care if she got harmed in the process but Damon seemed to prioritise their safety. And even though she still hated him, she appreciated how respectful he was by asking if she was okay with it.

"Very well" he said and stepped back into the middle.

At some point Callum had arrived.
"Both of you will work together. You may not get along but this is a job and if you screw up due to a petty arguement I will not be happy" Damon warned them both.

Callum looked over at Clara who was slightly red in the face.

"Turns out you look presentable when you're going undercover" he told her. It wasn't even a proper compliment as he didn't want things to be awkward but he wanted to test something.

"Enough. You're both prepared. Let's get going" Damon said.

"He's gonna fall for her" Callum mumbled making sure no one heard.
