Simon POV.
It’s my office, it’s my home, and I knew I’d want to know everything that happened in my office, and I could do that from my phone, sitting down in the living room, I had a camera inside the office along with microphones.
“I want to listen,” Lucas says joining me, he too knew that I had cameras, he’s the only one I trust.
“Here,” I say handing him one of the earphones, we also had a view over my phone.
Sophia was sitting near AJ, she looked terrified, I couldn’t see any trace of the girl I saw last night, she wasn’t acting like my wife, she was terrified. I wanted to go in, to tell them off, what the fuck does he need from her, I was ready to protect her while I knew well that she needs to stand up for herself.
“What have you been doing here?” Elijah asks them.
“We have been doing our job Sir,” AJ was the one to answer him.
“And why haven’t I been informed about everything?” Elijah asks them both and they shared a look.
“What does that jerk want to know, they tell him everything,” Lucas groans and I chuckle, yeah sure they tell him everything we allow them to tell, some secrets are ours to keep.
“Shush, they got one hell of a hearing,” I say to him, I knew vampires could hear a lot better than others.
“Fine,” Lucas says rolling his eyes and going back to listening, AJ has been giving him the same report that we agreed on before, he told him everything they were allowed to say.
“And your relationship with the said boss?” Elijah asks them both.
“He hasn’t forgiven me for being a spy,” AJ the traitor says, and I rolled my eyes, of course, I’ll never forgive him, loyalty is and would forever be the number one thing for me.
“You can’t call that being a spy, it was just some fun,” Elijah says with a chuckle, right, that’s called being stabbed in the back, but whatever he says.
“Well, he hasn’t forgiven me for it, but I’m back at my old job, I’m helping him along, everything is going according to plan, Sir,” AJ was yet again the one to talk, Sophia was very quiet, she isn’t even looking at him, is she being shy? Or does she want to not talk to him, or does she know that I’m listening?
“And you my nun, how things have been going?” Elijah asks her and I growl, she’s not a nun, she’s my Lil-sinner, she’s my Saint, she’s my Sophia.
“It’s been good, Lord,” Sophia says, the words sounding very forced, it’s clear that she didn’t want to be there talking to him.
“And the boss, Simon Black, is he treating you well? I heard he tends to kill the females in his house,” Elijah says, so he knew about me, and he knew that before sending her over, maybe he hoped that I’ll kill her and get rid of her.
“He’s okay, he treats me well,” Sophia answers him.
“And where are you sleeping, nun?” he asks her next and I sat up straighter waiting to hear her answer.
“A room,” she answers him, yeah right, it’s my room and my bed.
“Where?” Elijah asks her again.
“In the house sir?” she answers him, but she didn’t sound too sure, I knew she was still scared of him.
“I want you in his bed,” Elijah says, wow, that’s rude.
“Excuse me, Lord, but why?” she says her face fully red, only if he knew that his wish has come true already.
“I need you to be in his room, I need you to have ears with him all time, and you’ll do the reporting, I don’t want anything coming from AJ, or else,” he threatens her, else what! The jerk, I can go in that room and kill him right now.
“But Lord, I can’t sleep in his bed, I’ll keep an ear, I’ll do the reports,” she says, she’s married to me, but she’s lying for some reason, I’m not sure what they are.
“No, I want you to do more Sophia, I heard the news about you, the ones you thought to keep a secret,” he says turning to her.
“What news Sir?” she asks, blushing, does he mean the married part? Or the part where she wore that short dress and we had some private time in my club, I think to myself with a smile.
“Don’t play stupid with me,” Elijah says turning to Sophia, he had this look in his eyes and I was ready to kill him for scaring her.
“I’m not, Lord,” Sophia says, but he was quick, he held her by the throat and I stood up, ready to go in and save her.
“Sit down, he can’t know,” Lucas says holding me down physically, he had to restrain me or else I’d be there now.
“Lo… Lord…” Sophia repeats.
“I heard you’re a badass on the street, I heard that you’re trying to be some kind of boss, a badass,” Elijah says, and she shook her head no.
“You work for me daughter, you’ll forever be mine, I own you,” he says, but he didn’t, if anything Sophia was mine, she’s still her own person, but she belongs to one person, that’s me, and I don’t own her by force, I own her because she wants to belong to me.
“Now get where I tell you to be, and wait for my orders,” he says letting her go, leaving a mark on her neck, I was taken by the mark, but Lucas was still focused, he took the earphones out and hide the phone as the lord came out of my office ready to leave after threatening people under my roof.
