Chapter 166

The laptop and all eight USB ports were delivered before dinner I have them set up in order on the King's new desk. I have to be really careful when turning this thing on because one wrong move and the old man is going to know I'm alive.

This is how the King finds me. Bond Villain-ing at his beautiful Rococo-style desk. In fact, the entire study seems to fit. The ceiling is a smooth white and black marble masterpiece. Hand-painted. I'm not sure if the black elegant pieces decorating the area around the base of the chandelier are wood carved or sculpted because whoever made them painted them black and used gold to give it a really pretty texture.

"Do we know what facility the kid is in?"

"I've been thinking,"

"Fuck," he pushes me off his lap. I turn around to sit on his desk. "I hate when you say that. It's usually followed by something crazy,"
