Infiltration(ON HOLD)

Chapter sixteen

I sleep for the entire day, the next day. Pheobe is frowning at me when I wake up.

"What is it?" I ask her.

"Why can't you sleep like a normal person?" She asks me.

Fuck! Of course she noticed. I wondered about the rest of them. Did they know about my wierd sleeping habits?

"It's the only way I can" I tell her.

She nods. No further questions.

"Callypso is here. He had asked for you." She says.

I hop out of the bed running to bathroom to get fresh. I walk to the closet and pick up my usual black shirt and jeans. The ones Gale got for me after Pheobe said her my wierd dressing style.

When I return she looks worried to the room fully clothed.

"Pheobe I am going to be fine. Don't stress" I try to assure her.

"I just want you to be okay. Your sleeping pattern tells me you are not." She says

She still looks worried.

"I'll probably sound silly but I care about you and I am worried about you. I have known you only for some time but I can't just help it." She continues.

"I understand your concern but I am fine really." I say.

She nods.

Andreas is waiting for me down the hall.

We don't talk. He silently leads me to a study. A huge one. Shelves filled with books cover the entire of two walls. The wall that I am facing has fireplace.

Callypso is standing in front of the fireplace, his back towards me.

Ingenious is sitting on a sofa with a laptop infront of him. He is typing rapidly into it. He glances up to smile at me once and then continues doing whatever typing he had been doing.

Vicious and Hawk had been talking quietly when I walked in they stop when they see me.

They look like they have an understanding though Vicious doesn't look pleased.

What had they been talking about? Was it about me? Maybe Merissa.

That reminded me that I hadn't seen her after the dinner. Not that I am complaining. I had heard Gale muttering something about her to one of the servants in the hallways when I passed by her. I had been too occupied with getting to Callypso I didn't wait and listen.

Callypso turns around to face me when Andreas clears his throat.

Callypso places his hands in his pocket. He shifts on his foot.

I frown.

"Axel suggested something." He says. He looks a little unsure.

I look at Ingenious. He looks up at me wiggling his eyebrows.

"He thought it would be a good idea if you worked for us the for the time you plan on staying here."

Ohh!

This was it. They took me in. Finally!

"I need more people for something I have coming up. You are good at what you do so why not." Callypso says shrugging.

"Mr Fonollosa."  I wasn't calling the guy his name to his face.

"Cal is fine" it was Ingenious.

Callypso gives him a death glare.

"What? If she is in she is family isn't that the rule. So she can call you Cal,  why the hell not?" Ingenious asks.

"Cal" I say carefully
