JON FROWNED SLIGHTLY. He was getting embarrassed and a bit uncomfortable. The manager quickly noticed the change in Jon's countenance and apologised, "Sorry, dear sir. I just need to hurry her up."

"It is enough. I just want to get my room now, that's all."

"Of course. Of course." The manager said, hurrying behind the receptionist, who was still flustered from the slap. "Step aside, Jenny." He took over the desktop and a few seconds later, he looked up. "Successfully checked in."

He reached underneath the counter and extracted a gold keycard. "Here you go."

"Thank you." Jon collected the card.

"Enjoy your stay at the continental Hotel."

Jon snorted and walked away, leading the still-drunk lady clinging to his arm.

If looks could kill, Jon and his lady would.be very dead because of the look that the receptionist gave them. Jon felt the heat of her gaze on his back and he turned to meet her gaze. Their gaze locked and exchanged daggers between them.

The ping! sound from the elevator tore Jon from the silent eye battle. The door opened and he got in with the lady.

The manager's mind was in turmoil. His heart beat at the double rate as he watched Jon step into the elevator. After the door slid closed, the amateur heaved a heavy sigh of relief and slumped to the floor.

Jenny, the receptionist could not understand what was happening. "W-what was that all about, s-sir?" She stammered.

"Oh shut up!" The manager snapped. "We were this close…" He held up his hands and brought his right hand and held his thumb and index middle close together to signify just how close he meant. "We were this close to being shut down by a higher power… all it will take is a call and a few words."

"Being shut down? Because of that man?" Jenny asked, refusing to believe her ears.

"Yes, Jenny dear!" His words held venom.

Jenny shivered slightly and sat back in her seat. Her mind ran riot as she reminisced on what she had told Jon. "Sir, d-do you t-think…"

"What?" The manager turned.

"Nothing sir. It's nothing." Jenny replied, preferring to swim in her thoughts than to speak out about what was bothering her.

Would the man decide to take revenge for the mean and hateful words I said to him? She asked herself internally. I'm fucked!

Meanwhile, in the elevator, Jon sighed deeply. "An end to the drama and finally some time of peace and quiet." He placed the keycard on the elevator pad and it automatically registered the floor He was headed to.

Soft music emanated from the elevator's speakers and further relaxed Jon. The lady snuggled up even closer.

"What is your story, Young lady?" Jon asked softly, more to himself than to the half asleep woman.

The door opened into a long and brightly lit hall with a door at the end.

They both entered into an expensively furnished suite with a breath taking view of the New York skyline.

"No shit!" Jon breathed out. "This is really a fucking presidential suite. I wonder just how much it cost for one night here… let's get you settled." He muttered, referring to the girl.

He placed her on the bed and was about to pull the duvet up to cover her, suddenly, she retched and heaved her stomach contents on her body.

"Oh fuck me!" Jon swore.

She groaned again and fell back on the bed.

"Now, I have to take care of you. No shit"

He went to the bathroom and took some wet towels and warm water. The lady had not moved an inch from where she lay in her vomit.

"Awww…" Jon muttered.

He sat beside her and started wiping her face and neck with the warm water.

"I'd have to… Oh, God." Jon said. "It is inevitable."

He loosened the buttons of her dress and took a deep breath to still his hands which were shaking slightly.

He started methodically wiping her body and squeezing it in the bowl.

He could not deny the fact that the woman was actually beautiful and well endowed.

If I'm being honest, even more than Kim, He thought to himself.

He continued wiping her body and removing more clothing to expose more intimate parts of her body. Now, she was almost naked.

Jon cleaned all parts of her body, making sure she was very clean.

He stood at the foot of the bed, unsure of what next to do.

Should leave her and sleep on the couch? He asked himself.

He shook his head, got a bathrobe from the wardrobe and wrapped it around her and got a new duvet to cover her. He took the stained sheets and her clothes and put them in the washing machine. He looked around the exquisite bathroom, it was nothing like he had seen before, with fancy buttons and lotions on the shelf.

He was about to head to the couch when a thought dropped in his head. "What if she vomits again and chokes?" Jon was no science expert but he knew what choking would do to someone.

"I should be here with her. Just in case."

So, he took off his shirt and and laid down on top of the duvet.

He had no idea when he fell asleep.

The sound of loud ringing woke him hours later.

"Turn the phone off," Jon mumbled, turning in his pillow and still half asleep. He had no motivation to get up from his bed.

A female voice groaned beside him and said, "Okay…"

There was a moment of silence before rapid scuttling and a yelp of surprise which snapped Jon into sharp consciousness.

"Oh, my God! What have I done?" She screamed. "Was I so drunk last night?" she scurried away from the bed and from the strange man beside her.

Jon sat up slowly. "Hey, calm down…"

But she wasn't calming down one bit as she kept screaming. When her lungs were empty and she quietened down, before she could take another breath to continue with her screaming, the phone rang again with a shrill sound. Startling them into silence.

Jon maintained eye contact with her as she slowly reached forward and picked up the phone and answered.

Her face changed as a high, cold voice asked through the speaker, "Where the hell are you?"

    "HOW ARE YOU feeling today?" Jon asked as they left the hospital. His hand was around Nicole's waist, supporting her as they walked out with her nurse in tow. "A lot better," Nicole smiled. "That room was starting to feel a little crampy." Jon chuckled. "There is a lot of space where you are going now." Nicole smiled. They got into the waiting limousine and Jon's driver pulled out of the parking lot. It had been a week since Maxim fled for Russia and things had been relatively quiet. There were no talks about assassins or attempted murders anymore. For Jon, the only annoying part was Antonio Orsatti, strutting around like a peacock. He had to do something about him. But what? He asked himself. "What are you thinking about?" Nicole's voice drew Jon back to the present. He shook his head. "Nothing, nothing. I'm excited you are coming home with me." Nicole gave him a knowing smile and said. "Maxim is behind us now."Jon coughed out a laugh. "Why said anything about Maxim?" He as

    JON DROVE TO the hospital parked, at the end of the lot and sat in the car, taking deep breaths and calming himself. He ran his hands over the steering wheel. There was a loud whine of an engine behind him. He turned to see a Porsche squeal into the parking lot some yards away from him. He turned to see Antonio get out of the car. He flipped a loose strand of his long hair behind his ear. He put on sunshades and then walked into the hospital. Jon was in awe of what Antonio was doing here. "What the fuck?" Jon muttered under his breath. "When did they even release him?" He asked himself. He wanted to follow Antonio and confront him about what he was doing here, but he decided to wait it out and see how it played out. He did not have to wait for long because, after a few minutes, he saw Antonio coming back out. Jon opened his car door and folded himself out. Antonio was taken aback for half a second when he saw Jon standing in the parking lot. He looked hesitant to approach Jon bu

    THE MANSION WAS lit up with sirens the following morning. A servant tapped on Jon's door to wake him up. He brushed his teeth, washed his face, and went down in his pajamas. Alex Brandon and Mirtovic stood in his grand foyer. He stepped out just at the same time as Vincent, who was a little more formally dressed than Jon. "Head director," Vincent nodded at Mitrovic, and then he turned to Brandon, "Head director," he nodded again. "To what do I owe this surprise?" Jon asked dryly. Lucas came out of his suite and eyed the men. If looks could kill, both Mitrovic and Alex would have dropped dead. "Have a seat and drinks maybe," Mitrovic said. Jon snorted and led them into the study room. Lucas poured out 5 glasses of Whiskey. Vincent declined his, "A little too early for alcohol. Don't you think?" Jon nodded in agreement. He collected the glass from Lucas but did not drink it. "What do you have to tell us?" Mitrovic took a drink from his cup before saying, "News just got to us.

    "YOU CAN GO in now, Mister Stone." Jon stood up and gave a small nod at the FBI agents who had spoken to him. He walked into the room to see Lucas seated. Lucas looked up and gave a smile that did not reach his eyes. "I told you something would happen," Lucas said when Jon came in. "They screwed it up, didn't they?" Jon nodded. He paced the small room and massaged his eye socket. "You should call Vincent," Lucas said. Jon stopped and looked at Lucas like he was about to argue. But then he nodded again, "I will. What were the charges against you? Why did they bring you in?"Lucas scoffed. "Did they need to have a reason?" He asked back. "I saw the way the Brandon guy looked at me that first time, he wanted to bring me in from there." Jon didn't have anything to say to that. So he sighed and said, "I am going to get you out of here." Lucas nodded as Jon left the room. He got back into his car and sped out of the parking lot. His mind was spinning as he drove into the mansion. H

    IT WAS ONE importance of having numerous contacts in every area of the world. One of his contacts had informed him of the incoming arrest. Maxim had been in the kitchen, making himself breakfast when he received a text from his contact saying that there was a big arrest of a Russian coming the next day, all the bosses in the head offices were riled up and prepared. That was all the heads up that Maxim needed. He tossed the eggs into the trash can and left the house without even parking a bag. Just his car key and the clothes on his body. He hopped into his G-wagon and drove gently – He didn't overspeed. Nothing to catch their attention – to the airport. He told his pilot to take a one way flight to Russia immediately but that was not possible. The pilot had told him that the fuel wouldn't carry them nonstop, so they had to make a stop in France to refuel, before making the last half of the journey. That sounded fine. He just wanted to be out of New Jersey when the FBI came knockin

    JON HAD A very short night. He woke up 3 hours after he closed his eyes, and his eyes remained open. After lying prone for a long time, he turned and glanced at the bedside clock. It was 6 a.m. "I might as well prepare for my flight back to New Jersey," He muttered as he threw the covers back and swung his leg over the edge of the bed. He grunted to his feet and went to the bathroom. He stepped into the cold shower to wake him up for the morning. After washing up, he headed downstairs where the maids were already setting the table. Vincent had told them last night that the big boss was going to leave very early the following morning, so they had to wake early to make sure he is well taken care of.Jon took a seat at the dining table and nodded as his meal was served. "Have one of you get my bags from my room upstairs," He said to a servant boy who nodded and headed up immediately to get the bag. Jon took a bite of his breakfast and then turned to another servant nearby, "Go knock o
