twenty.

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays everyone! I hope you all had a lovely day with your loved ones despite what's going on on the world. Here's your present from me, hope you enjoy it!

Olivia woke up feeling someone softly stroking her cheek. She opened her eyes and saw Russell Wells leaning over her, looking at her with a smile on his lips.

- Good morning, Krasotka, he said before kissing her.

- Good morning, Olivia answered as she rubbed her sleepy eyes.

It didn't take her long to notice he was already dressed.

- Are you leaving?, she asked. What time is it?

- Business meeting. Shouldn't be too long, he answered before correcting himself. Well, I'll make it short anyway. And we can spend the rest of the day together. In bed, preferably, he added before kissing her again.

- I don't want to stay here all alone, she lied, trying to be convincing.

The truth was, being alone in the house was one more opportunity for her to have access to Well's files.

- I figured you wouldn't, he answered with a compassionate smile. I've asked Leo to stay with you until I come back. But hey, nothing's gonna ever happen to you again, alright? I'll make sure of that, he added before hugging the girl.

He kissed her one more time before leaving the bedroom. Not even five minutes later, the door slammed open and Brad entered.

- He's gon-, he started to say before his eyes fell on Olivia's half-naked body.

He stayed there for a second, his eyes scanning every inch of skin on the American agent's body as she grabbed her shirt on the bed and put it on.

- Please, come in, she mocked, used to his lack of manners.

- Someone didn't waste any time, he scoffed, trying to pass his jealousy for despise for the girl.

- Good morning to you too, asshole, she answered as she put her jeans on, determined to not let him get to her.

- Do you happen to do anything else with the target besides fucking?, he asked, making Olivia clench her fists.

He knew she was going to get mad, and she had good reasons to, but he couldn't help himself. Seeing her with another guy was driving him crazy.

- Do you wanna switch roles maybe?, Olivia answered calmly as she closed the distance between them. I'll handle security and you take care of fucking the target as you said. We'll see how you like that.

The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds, testing each other's limits, before Brad broke eye contact and started walking towards the door.

- Yeah, that's what I thought, you dick, Olivia said while Brad pretended he didn't hear.

The two of them made their way downstairs to Well's office in silence, the tension between them at its maximum. Olivia sat behind Well's computer while Brad started looking at files on the desk and on the shelves.

- I've already gone through all of these, Olivia said.

- And that's exactly why I'm going through them again, he answered, not even lifting his eyes from the papers.

The girl sighed. There was no point arguing with him when he was in that kind of mood. She turned her attention back to the computer in front of her and connected the USB key James had given her. She started typing on the keyboard, making files appear on the screen.
