SIREN

"We're here, Vasílissa" Devon said as the door of the car was opened by the bouncer of the club.

"I'll see you in there right?" Adelina asked as she applied one last layer of lipgloss to her lips.

"Yes, I'll be close by" Devon answered, urging her to leave the car with his eyes.

Adelina let out a breath before flashing a suggestive smile at the bouncer whilst stepping out.

She had to make a good impression.

And it worked because he let her in without questioning her motives or reason for being there.

Once she stepped into the busy club,

The smell of sweat, weed and alcohol clouded her nostrils.

She calmed down and stopped to think,

Her brain ruminating on who her target of the night was, like she had done over and over again.

"Erick Walters" She whispered to herself as she made her way to the bar.

Thanks to Katrinah, the shimmering sliver bodycon dress she had on would catch anybody's interest,

Especially Erick,

After all, she was his type,

She was everyone's type.

Of course he wouldn't be in the normal section of the club,

He would be present at the VIP section.

"Take the seat due east" a voice ordered from the invisible earpiece in her left ear,

She obeyed Jacquelynne's voice, sitting on one of the black leathery barstools,

Playing it cool as she pursed her lips and played with her long curly hair.

"What would you have tonight, love" The bartender asked, emerald eyes piercing her soul,

Adelina looked at him seductively,

Voice charming and sultry,

"Anything strong" She answered with a smile,

"Are you sure you can handle that, darling?" He asked, a hint of amusement glowing in his eyes,

"Give me your strongest" She grinned as she waved him off.

After all, alcohol had no effect on her, thanks to the program.

He turned his back to her and prepared a drink before sliding it to her,

"Thanks handsome" she winked at she took the glass to her lips, looking at him through her eyelashes,

He look weakened, lust evident in his eyes,

She smiled after seeing the effect she had on him, before turning around, propping herself up with her elbows on the counter.

Her bountiful breasts on full display,

Flawless figure out for everyone to worship,

And the looks she got from other people in the club encouraged her, she knew she was doing things right when men and women stared lustfully.

"Do you have your eyes on the target, hello...do you copy?" Adelina mumbled as she lifted herglass to her lips, pretending to sip the drink,

"Yes, look up Adelina, the glass room, we've caught the target in the trap, he's looking right at you" Jacquelynne said through the earpiece,

Adelina casually looked up through her eyelashes,

Into the VIP glass room on a higher level that overlooked the normal section of the club,

Yes, he was there and oggling at her alright,

Three bare bottomed strippers clustered around him, doing whatever they were paid to do.

Adelina paid him no mind,

Giving him an uninterested glance before turning away,

She saw the look on his face as she turned away from him.

He was definitely going to chase after her,

She turned to look at the bartender who was serving a lot of people at the moment, watching him work.

And she waited for five minutes or even more,

Getting impatient as each second passed,

She wasn't the type of assassin to throw herself on a guy,

She had never really needed to do that,

Maybe she needed to re-strategize,

As she decided to make her way to the toilet,

A hand, much bigger, compared to hers was dropped down on the wooden table with a huge slam.

Placing a wad of notes in front of the bartender.

"For the lady" the man's husky voice stated,

"Why, thank you for being so kind" Adelina said softly as she turned around, hoping it was Erick,

Bummer, it wasn't, but she didn't let her disappointment seep through the crevices of her countenance,

Instead, she flashed him her fakest smile and nodded once in appreciation.

"Come" He ordered before walking ahead,

Adelina followed,

Two other burly men in suits trailed her and she had the time to notice the tattoo on their napes,

They were Erick's men,

The plan had worked,

"Remember Phantom, you do not need to kill Erick, just retrieve the files, only kill if necessary" Jacquelynne warned.

"Yeah yeah" Adelina whispered, knowing she would still kill him if she felt like it at the given time,

They led her up some stairs to a private room,

Adelina followed them cautiously but unafraid.

After they searched her fruitlessly,

They let her into the room,

And she walked in, heels kissing the floor in a rhythmic pattern,

She looked for him, and she found him, sitting at the side of the bed in resplendence,

The room was dim, so she really couldn't see his face,

But she saw the lust radiating from his obsidian eyes,

He cleared his throat,

It was time for Adelina to follow through with one of her many talents,

Acting,

Pretending to be his type of girl.

"What is your name, miss?" His husky voice questioned.

Every word kissed with an unmistakable british accent.

Sexy.

Adelina threw her head down, staring at her sliver glittery shoes,

"What is your name, miss?" He repeated,

Adelina refused to talk,

Playing with her hands bashfully.

He tilted his head and his eyes narrowed down on her.

Like he was trying to figure something out,

"Do you speak, miss?" He asked as he peered at her in the poor lighting of the room.

Erick stood up quietly and took a few cautious steps towards her.

"Did you hear the question that I asked you, miss?" He asked.

He stood tall, not less than six feet in height,

His build was moderate, not too muscular and not frail at all,

His dark hair matched his chiseled face perfectly,

And his eyes were darker than ebony, filled with more mystery than the late night.

"Did you hear anything I said miss?" He asked, as he looked down at her 5'9 heel wearing figure,

Adelina looked up at him through her lashes,

Her siren eyes seemed to have shape-shifted into innocent and adorable bambi eyes,

His glare softened as he admired the pretty features of her face.

She batted her eyelashes slowly as she looked at him.

"My name is Vasílissa" She mumbled, loud enough for him to hear.

"Vasílissa" he repeated, his honey-like accent kissing the foreign name at the tip of his tongue,

He held her arm and she pretended to shudder at his touch,

"Are you afraid of me?" He asked, a bemused expression crossing his features as he did so.
