BEAU COLBY BURKELY THE REVIVED
James Wesley is a strange man in a world I never thought I would be apart of.
He isnโt the typical person. Doesnโt often show emotion, confident but not in the arrogant way, and a clear leader. I found it almost impossibleโintriguing. I knew there had to be more to him.
I met him upon getting hired by my latest and permanent client. It was a simple job, our employer giving me the opportunity to do some redesigning on a rather nice building. Although, I knew I wasnโt being hired for just my skills. They wanted to study me under a microscope, and I wanted to see how far I could play into their game.
Throughout the months of building, my employerโs right-hand-man accompanied me the most. He claimed it was because my employer wasnโt able to be present himself most of time, so he took his place. I thought otherwise but brushed it off. Just for a bit, anyway.
For such a stoic and closed off man, we had some decent conversations. Ironically, our more interesting ones being the ones he initiated himself.
He appeared more intrigued by me the more we spoke. Alas, I could say about me to him. This man did have depth after all; loyal, smart, quick-witted. Matching for a criminal like him.
Perhaps it was the money, or the thrill, or the fact that life hasnโt given me any better options in basically a decade, but I have been with them since. I know that isnโt going to change, no matter what. Ride or die?
So how did I start living with the most dangerous manโs right-hand man? It happened during my first project in this industry. The project as a whole was more slower than I anticipated, not expecting such a fancy design, and I ran out of rent money within a few months. And apparently, instead of having to figure out how to continue by myself, my employer was kind enough to offer helpโuntil my next paycheck, of course.
I was supposed to get my own apartment, if Iโm not mistaken, but Wesley had later explained to me he offered his place to me. It was supposed to be a temporary stay, after all, and neither of us was going to be very present in the home itself.
Iโm still not entirely sure why he kept me. I figured itโs because we ended up liking each otherโs presenceโIโd hope so, anyway. I thought it was just because I know what an actual meal is though.
