Zeke and Max left Boston, driving in complete silence.

There was no further discussion of what had happened with Jake Novak back in the warehouse and Max knew better than to inquire about the cell phone pictures. It had been a humiliation, and a loss, but that sort of thing was a very rare occurrence in Zeke’s world.

He’d won many more times than he’d lost.

In some ways, Zeke was even glad it had happened that way. Jake Novak had proven to be an incredibly smart and crafty foe, perhaps the smartest Zeke had ever come across. And Zeke had completely misjudged the girl. That was a surprise, an unpleasant surprise, and in the future he’d need to be better.

Certainly it was of concern that those pictures had found their way into Jake’s hands, but Zeke felt confident that they would remain secret.

It was in Jake’s best interest for those pictures to remain underground. They were collateral, protection against further intervention by Club Alpha.

By the time they’d returned to New York City, Zeke was feeling tired, worn down from the travel and the anticlimactic nature of what had occurred in Boston. He got out of the car on Fifth Avenue to get some fresh air and think, while Max drove back to headquarters.

As he walked, Zeke couldn’t help but stare at all of the women walking by, talking on their phones, texting, shopping, each beautiful in their own way. There were millions of them within his reach, and there would always be a new girl to suit his purposes.

He just needed to keep his eyes open, wait and watch.

After a time, he arrived at the nearest bookstore and went in to browse a little. He liked the smell of the bookstore, the quiet, the hum of low conversation, the different people engrossed in words, not paying attention to a man like him as he watched them.

He went to the café and got an Americano with two shots of espresso and then wandered the store.

It was as if his sixth sense was telling him to be patient, that the next girl was there somewhere if he only would pay attention.

And that’s when he saw her.

She was seated by herself at one of the small tables just outside the café, typing away on her laptop, oblivious to the world around her. The girl was probably twenty or twenty-two at the oldest, simple brown hair cut to shoulder length, a good figure hidden by black pants and a black button-down shirt.

This girl was not someone that would catch a man’s eye at first glance, and yet she was undeniably attractive if you could see past the initial presentation. Her skin was pale and flawless, her hands dainty as they pecked at the keyboard of her computer.

Zeke approached slowly, from behind. He wanted to see what she was writing.

As he got closer, he saw that the girl was writing what appeared to be some kind of simplistic romance, two characters kissing on a boardwalk. Zeke grinned to himself.
