"None of them called you or send a message?" James worried.
"Let's not panic about that, Zayn is on an undercover mission, he may not have time to call and Selena has a lot of work... Plus Spoon may have told her to not contact me because we gotta focus on our mission." Alyssa explained.
"Talking about the mission... Moritz is here to recreate Beerth Corporation. Spoon wants to buy at least 60% of this company."
"I guess Beerth isn't a normal company if he wants it that much..." The blue-eyed woman suggested.
"You're right, it's not... Because Moritz wants to build Beeth Corp over the old SID headquarters. It was first owned by the Secret Services... you know it... " He said as Aly nodded, everyone knows the SID, Secret Informations Distribution. This company was legendary and revolutionary 50 years ago. Spoon, Moritz, Evans, and JD worked there. Then, times went by, and the world's most secret agency went bad, some agents were corrupt and were sealing pieces of information to everyone who paid enough... After that, Spoon, Evans, Moritz, and JD made their way, they founded their own agencies and never stopped fighting against each other.
"You know what I think? I feel like Spoon wouldn't care about Moritz if this wouldn't concern the SID." Jee whispered, putting his hands on the table.
"What do you mean?" Alyssa demanded as she got closer to him.
"Have you heard about the 4 Blood ties secret?"
"Who didn't hear about that ?" She answered ironically.
"SID is the place where it all started... And the 4 Blood ties is the secret that made it all start." James started. "Guess what, the 4 Blood ties is a secret 4 person wanna discover..."
"Get to the point." The blue-eyed ordered.
"The 4 blood ties concern these 4 families and I think that they were one at the beginning." He finished.
"No way! James the 4 Blood ties secret had been resolved decade before. It just concerned a family of 4 children and they created the concept of secret services!" Aly said, angrily. "I'm not plunging in that shit, it's none of our business!"
"What if the 4 Blood ties concern the lost child? What if everyone keeps dying every day because of these mysteries?" The satiny-skinned spy suggested.
"I know how stubborn you are and I admire you for that because you never give up on what you believe in. But please, for the love of God, not this time... Because before you find out you'll be dead!"
"Alyssa, they are lying to us, for 10 years and my mother may have died for this secret, I have to..."
"It's all about old history. And when people tryna find out, it will kill some people or put an end to everything these people may have ever thought or believed. Sometimes the truth just comes out on its own. Other times the truth comes out without a single file being opened and without a single bullet being fired." Alyssa said, putting her hands on James'.
"If I'm not the one who'd die for this truth, someone else will."
"Nobody's gonna die, since these two mysteries either the lost child or the 4 Blood ties are way too dangerous and nobody but you wanna take the risk of discovering that shit!"

Meanwhile, Alyssa and James were trying to find a way to put pressure on Moritz, Selena was trying to call Zayn who wasn't picking up.
"What do you want?" He coldly said as he finally picked the call.
"Where you at?" Dallas demanded.
"Wh..."
"I asked you a question." She yelled.
"I'm at my place. Why?"
"Gotta talk. I'll be here in 10 minutes." Leena concluded, hanging up the phone.
"How can a 28-years-old man be that immature?" She told herself.

As she told him, 10 minutes afterward, the woman was standing in front of the door of Zayn's house. He opened it, without saying anything and Dallas came in.
"Listen, what I'm gonna say is hard to understand but it's the way it is, okay?" The light brown haired girl declared, putting her hands on her friend's shoulders.
"Go ahead, Leena."
"My mum and your dad died on the same day at the same place. But it doesn't mean that their death has something to do with the fact Chic and Marc died." Alyssa's bestie said.
"I've never said their dead has something to do with Marc's. I just said that we should focus a bit more on them, two agents disappeared the same day at the same place and nobody found their corpse." Zee precised.
"You... You're right, it's not normal... but what do you really think?" She asked, confused.
"It's a crazy thing..."
"Tell me!"
"What if my dad and your mum knew I don't know something compromising..."
As he pronounced these three words Selena had a backward movement. Dozen of memories and images resurfaced on her mind... She was blinded by the lies.
"My mother was an important person and she was in charge of your father's services... I think they just went to a mission and then it happened..." Leena added, to convince and protect her friend.
