Fractured by N.O Darling

Chapter 0214

Deacon and I port into an empty apartment in a building that overlooks the park, whilst Luke, Axe, Mason and Theo port to a disused train line in the underground station cross the street. Some of Raff’s team are already here and some have even managed to compel themselves onto the security team.

We know Cornelius will have informed his team to be on the lookout for bonded groups so it’s important that as a female I am only seen with one male, otherwise we may draw suspicion. This theory is confirmed when a single female with a group of three males is stopped at the gate and pulled to one side. We can’t see what is done to them from here as they are led into a large white tent. I hold my breath as we wait, only releasing it when they exit the tent unharmed.

Probably using compulsion to question them. If we get pulled in, remember to draw on Axel’s blocking gift and make your gaze look vacant. Imagine you are in a daydream and answer their questions quickly and almost robotically,” Deacon says.

“We should have practised this,” I sigh.

“We have time now if you want to try?” he asks.

“Yes, do it,” I nod and he smirks. “Nothing weird,” I warn, pointing to my ear and my pin badge to remind him we are being listened to and watched.

“Okay, look at me,” he says.

My eyes meet his and I pull on my connection to Axel as I see the intent in Deacon’s eyes.

“Are you a Grey?” he asks and I let my face relax, unfocusing my eyes as I feel the command for the truth brush against my mind, I almost smile when his power doesn’t work.

“No,” I say without emotion.
