#sequel coming

Can you guess what? I’ll give you a hint.

Two years later…

We pickup right where we left off 🖤🖤🖤

Chris sighed, “You’re mad at me.” 

“You think?” Leon asked with a dark chuckle, “Boy, I can’t imagine why!” 

“Hey! You can’t be mad at me! I wasn’t the one who assisted an international terrorist!” Chris hissed. 

“She was a key fucking witness, you Fuckwit!” Leon argued, “You let the actual terrorist walk free and then had me fucking facilitated! And then, you fucking took me to your home and fucking took advantage of me!"  

“One: Ada has been involved with numerous terrorist organizations and worked with the likes of Wesker and Neo-Umbrella. You could have apprehended her at any time, but each time you let her walk after you two exchanged goo-goo eyes and played Patty-Cake! Two: Simmons is clean, we found nothing. Three: You had yourself facilitated! That was on you!” Chris hollered, the commotion disturbing Ollie’s nap and making the baby cry loudly, "And I took you home because no one else would-!"

Before they could go any further, another nurse came back with Leon’s lunch, both Chris and Leon freezing and looking at the nurse. The man apologized for interrupting them, asking if everything was alright in here. Cold blue orbs met equally cold brown briefly, exchanging angry looks as Chris gave a nod, and a faux smile, telling the nurse that everything was just peachy. They were just having a conversation...a very loud conversation and had accidentally woken the baby from his nap. 

The nurse beamed, setting the tray of food down on the little side table next to Leon’s hospital bed. Leon gave his own faux smile, noticing the nurse examining him. The man canted his head, asking Chris if Leon was one of those facility Omegas. He recalled Chris mentioning it prior to the baby’s birth, saying that Leon was one and had been prepared for these kinds of things. 

“Oh...yeah. He is.” Chris confirmed, “Why? Is something amiss?” 

The nurse looked to Leon again, the Omega clearly confused and annoyed, “I don’t know...but aren’t those types of Omegas supposed to be...happy and sunshine and rainbows twenty-four-seven? Leon seems a bit more...doom and gloom. During the birth, he seemed a tad...feral.” The nurse explained. 

Chris scoffed, “What? No! He was in pain! Of course he seemed feral! Birth isn’t exactly a ticklish process! He’ll be fine once I get him back home! Right, Leon?” 

Leon looked between the nurse and Chris, giving an even bigger smile and a nod, looking more unhinged than friendly, “Absolutely! I am absolutely ecstatic about the birth of our precious baby boy! I cannot wait to go back to my Omega duties and care for my mate and child!” 

The nurse raised a brow, a bit disturbed at the unnatural smile Leon wore and overly happy and kind of robotic tone that Leon spoke with. He merely shook his head, mentally saying that maybe he was just a bit too tired due to the long shift. He apologized for his prodding and congratulated them on the birth of their child before excusing himself from their hospital room. 

Chris gave Leon a look, “Yeah...I think that was definitely convincing. Not at all suspicious…” he said sarcastically.

Harding Taken Back Into Custody

The infamous Jack Harding—known for his hand in the pollution of the Indian Reservation—was taken back into custody late last night. Harding is well known for his numerous lucrative businesses as well as the toxic landfill that poisoned several of the Indian community's elders. Since having been sent to prison, Harding lost all his assets and what has been attached to his estate. As with the case of Hugo Snyder and Medusa, FBI agent Samuel Douglas's three sons were among those who took down Jack Harding the first time. However, it seems to be the catalyst to Harding's nefarious plot. This time, it appeared that all of Los Angeles was his target. It has been found that the new pharmaceutical company, MedoCal, was created, funded, and ran by Harding through numerous names, trusts, and identities. With funding seized, it is clear that Harding planned on liquidating his assets, setting up those that worked for him to take the fall, and extradite himself to another country. Harding had fully served his term in prison before his previous release, and with his capture he will be transferred to Los Angeles County, the FBI's Los Angeles Branch.

Awwwe you’re so sweet, thank you. I’ve been rereading it a little too lol. But that’s probably because I’m starting to write a sequel..
