“You can stop lurking, Lily.”

“Jacob, you c-can—” her voice stuttered “—sense me now?”

He turned from the computer screens hovering above the table to the woman in white standing in the doorway. Beneath tightly bound lace dress, he could spot her black bra and panties, enough sex woven into the fabric that he couldn’t ignore it. There had been a time when she was forced to utilize her feminine charms to survive. He wished he could read her thoughts now; he wanted to know if she was attempting to survive with him.

“No,” he said returning to his screens. “At least not yet.”

Her heels made a clacking noise each time she stepped further into the room. Her steps were deliberate and careful. He had no doubt now, she was attempting uncover her position in Jacob’s new order. The Society said there must always be four, and with one dead, did it mean they would replace Salvador or was the group dissolving? He wouldn’t tell her just yet, but planned on getting rid of those who sided against him.

“Is your cleansing underway?”

“You think it’s a poor use of Genesis Division’s resources?”

Her laugh was condescending out of habit, as if she practiced it while looking down on her peers. He knew not to take it personally, but his slight growl sobered her. She shook her head promptly.

“These people killed the Warden,” she said as if that explained it all. He didn’t blink as she took a seat and crossed her legs, accentuating her sexuality. “If they are capable of killing a man who not only eluded us, but managed to take control of the most secure facility in America, I believe they deserve our attention.”

The voice in the back of his head quieted, satiated by her explanation. It was what she didn’t say that spoke volumes more. “You don’t like the competition, do you?”

She waved him off with her hand. “Rivalry? Does it look like I have a rival? They’re dangerous because they’re unknown. If they want to meet me, I will gladly snap their necks myself.” Dark blue eyes met his gaze, the jab at him stealing her abilities hanging in the air.

Explosions on his computer screen grabbed his attention. For now, it seemed Lily would continue surviving. As for the Children his company hunted, that was another story entirely.
