I sashayed into the bar, only paying attention to my heels clicking on the tiled floor. I glanced at the eyes that stared at me and smiled slyly at all of them.
I'm Katherine Hyde. Level 10 of the S.R.A. Spy Recruit Agency. I've worked hard for my position and I'm not letting anything hold me back, so I make sure my meetings are nothing but business.
I slipped into the booster seat and suddenly got annoyed that my little buddy wasn't here.
"Drink ma'am?"
I looked up at the waiter who was trying way too hard to keep his composure. I smirked, "Martini please". He flashed a quick smile and then trudged away to get it. I crossed my legs and tapped my fingers. I hate to wait and I had a lot of work I had to get done.
Soon after, my drink came and so did my friend. I stood up as we embraced for a second. "Your looking sexy" he whispered in my ear. I giggled slightly and sat down.
"How are you doing Daniel?" I asked coyly, swirling my drink. "I could be better with you by my side" he leaned over. I chuckled to myself. "Not going to happen".
"Oh come on Katherine. Your always about business. Learn to lighten up a bit will ya?" He complained. I shot back at him and stared deep in his eyes. "Listen to me. I've worked my ass off trying to make it in this business and I'm not going to let "fun" ruin it for me. So sorry to rain on your parade, but go find some other chic who's willing to give up her position" I snapped.
He breathed an took off his hat. "My Miss Hyde. So fierce and sensual". I rolled my eyes, "Daniel what was this whole meeting about? To flirt with me and waste my time?"
"No that's just being Daniel. I wanted to warn you that we are receiving a new agent" he paused, "and he's good".
I chuckled again to myself, "I doubt that. I mean, sure good enough to get into the S.R.A but I don't think he's good enough".
"So quick to judge. I envy your ego, Miss Hyde but he's a bit better then you". I immediately grew annoyed at this conversation. "Ok fine whatever Daniel. I'll see you back at the head quarters" I said, walking off. "Oh come on Katherine. You didn't come here to just leave. Stay with me".
I stopped and glimpsed over my shoulder to stare at him. He leaned on the wall and lite a cigarette. "Ok Daniel. Lets go back to my place and ill show you how fun I can be".

I've already introduced myself right? Well let me tell you a bit more. I'm not the type of girl..well...women you would find pleasure in working with. I'm a soloist - I work better on my own. I demand control and I like to be a leader.
I've grown up with a very high demand father. My mom died at child birth so I had to put up with him. He's the reason I am in the occupancy I'm in.
He's the reason I'm me.
I woke up and wiped the sleep out of my eyes. I sat up and slipped my feet off the bed. I looked over to see Daniel laying on his stomach, snoring. I sneered in disgust and made my way toward the bathroom.
Look at me...
I'm trying way to damn hard! Why the hell did I sleep with him. Just to prove a point? Trying to convince myself I could do something I'm not capable of?
I shook my head and got dressed. I'm so stupid because I have a ton of work that I needed to get done. Fuck you Daniel. And fuck me too...

I walked into the building along with Macy, my best friend. Everyone scattered around with brief cases and dark shades. If I didn't know better I would think I was in a scene for a spy movie.
"Macy do you know about any new agents?"
Since she was the noisiest person in here, I assume she knew. "Yes. He's name is Donovan Highly. I heard he is really good". She sipped her coffee and I heard her gulp it down.
"Looks like you have competition" she nudged me. I stared blankly at her. Like I said. No one is holding me back.
"Oh calm down, Kathy. You work way too hard for a new agent to tear it all down. I think your stressing way to much about this. He's just a new agent" she said.
I calmed down. Macy is right. I shouldn't be all stressed over one guy who probably knows less then I think he knows.
I walked into my office and I couldn't be more happy to be in my own place.
I dumped my bag on the seat in front of me and plopped on my chair. I looked around. Hate to admit it, but I was actually too lazy to get straight to work.
But I wasn't too lazy to look up Donovan Highly. I pulled up the Internet and searched him up.
Turns out he was kicked out of his newest agency and assigned to this one because he broke a few rules. Sadly the Internet protected his information so I didn't know what specific rules.
Maybe I could hack into some of his profiles or his records. I would be breaking some rules too but you have to take a risk here and there.
I pulled up some of his police records on the cite and went to work.
