Amethyst Ayesha |PF| *She hadn't told Turstin about the incident at the grocery store. She'd likely imagined it, it could happen. Being an agent tended to make you wary and distrustful even in the most normal situations. You had to keep your guard up, that was the life. Then, the feeling continued. While she was at work. When she went to the gym. Even when she was simply sitting out on the deck at the Den, where no prying eyes should ever be. It was beginning to worry her, and she could no longer simply shrug it off.*
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| *Illy was away at a shoot, one she'd been super excited about scoring, so she knew Kaden was likely scowling at everything and letting beer bottles stack up. He tended to get grouchy whenever Illy was away for too long. He definitely had control issues. Luckily Illy managed to put up with his idiotic sides, having grown up with them. The fates had definitely chosen right by them. Not bothering to knock, she headed inside. After dropping next to him and stealing half his beer, she explained what had been happening.*
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| *To her surprise, he produced his phone, scrolling to two screenshots. Her brow rose as she quickly read through them.* Who's this? Does Illy know? That last line looks like a threat. We should call her home, you know that.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| *Frowning as his beer got stolen, he headed for the kitchen to grab another, making a mental note that he needed to take out the damn trash soon. Dropping back to the couch next to Am, his frown deepened as she relayed the odd feeling of being watched. Pairing that with these odd as fuck messages, it made him wonder what the hell was going on.*
Kaden Kaleva |PF| I tried to trace it, burner phone. Nothing associated with it but the damn fucking number. Do you realize how many goddamned crazy bitches are in my past? It could be the fucking Queen of Sheba for all the fucks I give. Bitch is insane, which makes her dangerous but damn delusional. I ain't worried about it.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| You though, if someone's following you, I want to know why. *At her words, he tossed a glare her way* You kidding me? As excited as Illy was about this shoot, we ain't doing shit. She'll be home in a few days and we can figure out what the hell's going on then. In the meantime, you need to keep your ass at the Den or at work. Mean's me or T will be nearby at all times. Could ask Al, but he's upped and ran off playin' agent himself.
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| You know Kaden, mating is probably the best thing that could have happened to you. The way you were, someone was going to end up killing you just on principle to save the rest of the species from your man-whoring.
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| *Taking a sip of the beer, she made a face. She didn't much care for it, but she enjoyed the look on his face when his "baby sister" stole one from him. Even after all these years, he gave her a look like she'd been caught breaking curfew. It was the one constant in her life, and she was going to savor that over-protectiveness when she could.*
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| *Well, about the small things.* Kaleva, don't pull that shit with me. I'm an agent just as much as you are. You're my partner, you don't get to coddle me and put protective duty on me. If someone's watching me, they're going to need to be a whole lot better at their game, because they were stupid enough to alert us early that something is up.
Amethyst Ayesha |PF| As for your messages, you really have no idea who it is? *At the confused shake of his head, she patted his leg in a comforting gesture.* Well, there are a few continents we never visited. That narrows it down some.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| *He growled, narrowing his eyes on her* Thin ice, Am. I'm not any worse than most of the other agents. Well, male agents. Early on, we didn't have this relationship partner thing happening, and in the jobs we do, sometimes you just needed someone for company for the night. Or a couple someone's and their friends, shit happens.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| *Moodily slugging back more of the beer, he slouched down on the couch, retrieving the remote to switch the TV on to the news. Bad habit to break, even on "off" hours, they tried to keep watch on what was happening in the rest of the world, in case they needed to grab their go-bags and get to headquarters before an official request came in.*
Kaden Kaleva |PF| *Sighing, he scrubbed a hand over his whiskered cheek* I'm well aware that you match me in skills, Am. Still, you're the closest thing to a little sister I got. You can't blame me for getting overprotective when you got people fucking watching you, especially when your last mission went tits up and your cover could have been compromised. You know this as well as I do, it ain't a game. And I can't fucking fight off 3 pissed off tigers at once.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| Illy'd be pissed I didn't do something, T for not letting him do something. Al just because his siblings are pissed and he needs a goddamned target for Tuesday, cause he already killed his Monday target a few hours ahead of schedule. We'll discuss it later. Now begone, pain in the ass. My woman's due home soon and I gotta make this place look like I ain't skulked around the past few days.
Kaden Kaleva |PF| *Shaking his head as she left, he gathered the bottles nearest him, heading to the kitchen to toss them in the nearly full trash can. Am could think what she wanted. He and the Ryann's weren't going to let her handle shit alone, that wasn't how family worked.*
