118: The New FlatMate
Just as Ren expected, Kai Onichan followed Ren Carter out into the cold night air, whistling to himself. Ren listened to him the whole time, trying to pretend he wasn't aware that the stranger followed behind him, every turn he took, every corner he cut. After a while, he decided the responsibility was up to him to ask what the fuck was going on. He turned, and Kai stopped, watching him with twinkling eyes. “Is there a problem?” Ren frowned. “Is there a problem? You're the one following me, you know.” “Oh, right.” Kai scratched his brow, looking confused for a moment. “Should I not...uh?” “Yeah, you shouldn't.” “It's not up for discussion, anyway. I'm coming with you wherever you go.”Ren grabbed him by his shirt front without thinking. “Keep this up, and I might lose my shit with you.”“I'd like to see you really lose your shit.” Kai snorts. “I can teach you, you know? Control.” Ren shoved him off and dusted his hands. “Stay away from me, weirdo.” But Kai Onichan refused to l
117: Black Ops Agent Kai?
“So,” Ren relaxed into his seat and observed the red-haired man carefully, “who are you?” He was curious about the stranger who emerged from nowhere and mentioned the idea/possibility of becoming friends in the future...so fearlessly...confidently...Kai’s lips stretched into a mischievous smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners. “Well, my dear friend—”“Don't call me your friend.” “The sooner you accept it the better it'll be for you. For us. It's going to happen, Ren Carter. You're going to be seeing a lot of me, so brace yourself.”Ren was about to ask Kai how he got to know his name but decided to let him answer the first question before anyone else. He was more curious about that. “Like I said earlier, my name is Kai Onichan, and I am a Black ops agent sent to investigate the Blackthorn family for centuries of crimes that's been buried under—”“Wait a second,” Ren scoffed, rubbing his jaw. “You're not messing with me, are you?” “Messing with you? You think I'd pull you out o
116: The Mysterious Vampire Outbreak
Chills washed down Ren’s spine as the scream pierced his ears. Pandemonium broke out in the dark. Guests began scrambling. Confusion became the order of the day. Soon, it was no longer just one voice. There were multiple voices screaming, wailing. Ren heard them behind him, they crashed into him. He was trying to get away in the dark when someone pounced on him like a tiger and reached for his neck. His first thought was; ‘how could they find my neck in the dark?’ Before he could throw off whoever was above him, something slashed his face and he felt the sharpest sting he'd felt in a long time. “Fuck, get off me!” he hissed, shoving the person off. But they wouldn't get off, they latched onto him like a leech and when Ren lost his mind was when he felt the violent scrape of teeth against his skin. He froze, the hairs on his skin rising on end. And in the next nanosecond, his hand moved in a scary momentum of its own. SLAM! CRACK! It went flying into the skull of his attacker
115: Know Your Enemy
Hana had been at her desk ever since Ren left for work that morning without so much as five words to her. He’d had a serious demeanor about him that stopped her from asking him if they could continue their session tonight. She had been shocked by his sudden willingness the previous night. Even more by his dedication to giving her the first draft of the story. She couldn't help but wonder. What had come over him? Why so compliant all of a sudden?Still, she was grateful for the change, because she had been worried about how her little hope of reviving her career had chosen to remain bleak. Now that he'd decided to open the can of worms, she hoped to milk him until he was dry of every juice that could help boost her career. She also hoped the day would come when she would no longer have to keep her darkest secret from him. The one that had to do with him and the explosion in Tokyo penitentiary. She didn't want to die with the weight of guilt. She feared it would crush her even in th
114: Project Vitae
“What do you mean? It doesn't work that way!” Chris Han’s voice was tight with agitation as he countered the words of the co-founder. The rest of the board observed in awe and disappointment. “Well, unfortunately for you, it does.” Keeping the smile on, Jin with the slicked back hair and no-nonsense expression snapped her fingers and her quiet brother handed her a document from the small stack sitting in front of him. “This is an article from the hospital charter,” Jin held the paper up for everyone to see, “drafted exclusively and kept away from the board. It states that—Fuck it.” She tossed the paper on the table and folded her arms across her chest. “Go ahead and read it if you like. The decision is final. Ren Carter remains on seat as the director of our hospital.” “But you can't just make decisions like that.,” Chris Han countered, expression tight with rage. “Too bad we can.” “So why then do you need the board? You can as well dismiss us all and return our investments
113: Minority Rule
Ren Carter finally showed up at OakHills hospital for the first time in three weeks. It was nothing but Ryker’s call that brought him out of his shell. Not because he was afraid. But because he was curious to know what the Blackthorns had planned. Greetings were thrown at him from left, right and center as he glided across the lobby towards the elevator. There was an air of confidence around him today. He wasn't sure why. “You look good for a director who's neglected his duties for three weeks.”Ren turned around to see Zara Meadows standing behind him. The elevator doors slid open and she sidestepped him. “Aren't you getting on?” He managed to do that before the doors slid shut. “Morning,” he muttered, scooting away from her. Her eyes rolled up and she watched him with curious interest. “Are you sure you're still the director?” “My cousin died. I had to take some time off.” Ren felt bad about using his cousin as an excuse, but he would take that over facing the penitentiary doc
