James is staring down at the cup I handed him. He hasn't taken a single sip of it. I take it from his hand and take a drink.

"If I wanted to kill you I would have done it in the insane asylum we were trapped in," I hand it back to him. He smirks and takes a heavy drink.

"It never crossed my mind. I was just wondering why you would try to be any kind of hospitable to me,"

"I'm hospitable as fuck," I shrug. "Ask Jordan,"

"Don't," Jordan rolls his eyes. "Would you like to do the honors or do you want me to take point?"

"I'll start so I can make things clear to him," I sit behind my glass desk.

"A tracker implies that I'm going to be able to be out on my own," he says.

"Right," I nod. "And this is much more than that," I say placing his updated identification papers between us and the new wallet I got for him. "As of today, you are an asset of the crown. You belong to me. I say jump you jump as high as you can. When you are required to be somewhere you will be there fifteen minutes before the scheduled time. Failure to comply will result in you going back to the glass room. Not the institution. What you do with the rest of your time, is on you,"

"You're just giving me a job and letting me go?" he asks confused.

"What did you think I was going to do?"

"Keep me in a box until you require my services,"

wanted that, but I didn't think it would be fair given that I'm not better than you," I admit.

"You're a very naive woman," he scoffs.
