Eye for an eye
Ever since the last time your assistant came to you with pictures and details of your prey’s location you have been antsy, you know he’s there and you now know both of them are, one of them was scurrying around like the worm he is but you were certain you could catch him. With time, like you always said, patience makes everything worth it in the end. And you have been nothing but that, in fact, you have been way too patient and way too kind.
Your hands are in front of your mouth, fingers intertwined as you tap one on the back of your hand, waiting. It was probably not even time yet but you always expected people to be there, specially knowing who they would be working for, you made it explicitly clear that this was no joke and you were not here for little pranks or games.
Your eyes move up as the light sinks into your dark room, the outline of your jade blooded assistant stands next to it and another silhouette next to him.
“Excuse me, the person you were expecting is here, Master.”
You nod and dismiss him with a waving hand. You straighten up on your chair, looking up and down to the new guest in your room.
“I hope you realize how lucky you are to be here, I do not let anyone just waltz into my office unless.... Well it’s extremely important... Take a seat, we need to talk.”
You motion to the chair in front of your desk, your face void of emotion, your eyes glued to his.
