Prologue
"Your sending me on a mission with this chick?"
He throws his head back laughing and his dark curls shake with laughter.
"What the hell is she going to do ask the target if they want to braid each other's hair."
Margaret and I make eye contact and she nods giving me the go ahead. In less than 2 secinds I have him in a choke hold and his guns are on the floor.
He struggles to get out of my hold as he gasps for air, I wait until the last second to release him. He stumbles and reaches for one of his guns.
"How the f**k did you move so fast?" He asks pointing one of the guns between my eyes. I keep a blank look on my face ignoring him.
"When do we leave." I ask Margaret not taking my eyes off the trigger.
"You leave tomorrow at 4, here is everything you need make sure to study the file. The target is slicker than he looks."
I pretend to reach for a knife and his eyes follow for a split second and I use that as my chance to hit two spots on his hand making it go numb.
My mouth twitches with a smile when I see terrified look in his eyes for split second.
I move past him to collect my half of the documents.
"What the f**k are you some kind of robot?"
"She's human, enough playing around if she wasn't capable of getting the job done I wouldn't have put her on the mission."
I look into the bad and I see a fake wedding ring alony with my fake credentials and a wig.
Great I have to pretend to be this idiots wife. At least it's only for two days and I'll have time to do some digging of my own.
"She must be genetically modified to be able to move that fast."
I scoff at his words and walk out of the office, I have to get home before Joe does.
"Hey wait up GM"
"My name isn't GM and I don't have time for idle chitchat."
"Your so boring and stuck up, no wonder the other agents don't bother with you."
I feel a tiny pang of hurt when those words leave his lips, but I have to remember that my real mission is more important than anyone and everything here.
I ensure to keep my blank mask on and give him the coldest look I can muster.
"Do I look like I care?"
He is taken aback by my steele like glare and stunned into silence.
