121 The Assistant

~Leo~

“I can’t believe we kicked ass like that,” Dominic said, feeling happy about what we had achieved in the woods.

“I have never felt so strong in my life. Is this what the AgK32 does?”

Dominic asked Erik, who was laughing. I could see the pleasure in Erik’s eyes. He looked like someone that had made a breakthrough in research. It also made me realise we were his guinea pigs. I did not want to bring it up there until he was alone.

“Leo, did you see yourself? You were like Amelia. You were a blur,” Vino said, and I frowned and looked at Devin, who nodded.

“The way you tore that wolf’s belly was epic. One second you are under him, the next you are away from him, and his guts are on the ground,” Theodore said, and I was surprised at myself.

“The AgK32 worked well; with your genes,” Erik said, smiling, and I looked at him.

“I know we are the first people to use your stuff,” I linked him, and his smile faded. I caught him.

“Do not worry, I won’t tell the king but do not try this kind of bullshit on us again. What if it hadn’t worked?” I linked him, and he shook his head.

“It would have worked. I had tested it before but not in a battle,” he linked me back, and I dropped the matter so I do not end the joy of the moment.

“See who I found,” Andrew said, and we all looked in his direction. It was a weird-looking guy. I did not need help to know he was a Stepanov.

“Melvin?” Erik asked him, and the guy looked away.

“Do you know him?’ Sylvester asked Erik: of course he did.

“My former assistant,” Erik said, walked to where Melvin was held and punched him in the face.

“What is the meaning of this?” Erik asked, annoyed. It seemed the man had snapped. This could happen to anyone after facing a near-death experience.

“What are you doing here?” Erik asked him, and the man cowered on his knees; it was clear he did not have the courage for a confrontation.

“We tracked your cell phone,” he said, and I looked at Erik. We had all come with our cellphones.
