Lana Steele 2.0

Prolouge/Recap

I walked alone, thinking to myself about all that the butler and Mr. X had said about my mother. Was she really still alive? I still didn't get ahold of my mother's file but I most definitely will sooner than later.

The sound of a car horn was merely vibrant. Turning around to meet the honker, a smooth ebony car pulled up beside me. A little shocked at the driver, he was first to speak.

"Going my way?" His sexy accent lucid in every word. "So you're alive." He attempted to hide the smile that was crawling on his face as he shrugged. Meanwhile a smile appeared on my face. "The auctioneer was a lot less interested in killing me once I told him I had a lead to the Mr. X device and I'd cut him in 50%." I marveled at the story. "So he.. gave you the map?" I spoke walking closer to the car and leaning my hands on it. He nodded slightly before speaking once again. "But when I got there it was already swarming with agents so like any good thief, I carried on driving. But the real question is, why aren't you with your little spy friends?" I sighed. "Well right now I'm not with anyone." I told him honestly. "I like the sound of that." He smiled. "Me too." I opened the door to the passenger side and sat on the black leather-covered seat. Resting my arm on the door I shifted my eyes forward to keep my composure together. God knows I would've stared at his God-given features and never blinked. Turning on the radio, he blasted the song the radio was playing and sped down the road. I released my hair from its bun and ran my fingers through it, unbraiding the few braids that helped secure it. Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of Nemesis looking at me. I smirked as he licked his lips and adverted his eyes back to the road. "Any chance you could do me a favor?" He raised an eyebrow in suspicion. "Get me my mothers file and everything/anything I think I'll need regarding anyone close to her, that includes Mr. X's file. Do whatever you have to do and I'll repay you. This is something top secretly important." The foreign cutie raised an eyebrow but agreed. "Where can I find them and when do you need it by?" "It's in Raymond's office at the agency, I need it ASAP." I spoke in total seriousness. "Okay, I'll go right after I drop you off." I furrows my eyebrows. "Drop me off where?" His expression looked apologetic. "You'll see." I'd be lying if I said I wasn't freaking out just a little.
