“Care for another drink, Amelie?”
“Of course…”
Axelle had to present a fake smile, her French manicured fingers wrapped around an elegant wine glass. In truth, she hated everything about this place. It was so far from combat or the field she loved to operate in. This was a party: A large, extravagant party thrown for the fat cats of the galaxy doing an under the table business deal. That was why she was assigned to this job. The man sitting directly next to her was General Gorgovich.
“You can call me Yuri.”
The portly man added a wink after the comment. Axelle had to keep her sultry grin plastered across her face. For the first time in many years, she was in a dress. It was a red dress that tightly fitted around her slender frame, a slit running up along the right leg. Naturally, she also wore a garter with guns holstered in them. Her purse also had a small blaster in it. It took a lot of sweet talking to be able to get into this classy party. However, for whatever reason, Yuri Gorgovich had taken to her right away. It all started with him marveling at the battle scars tainting her creamy white skin, accenting her features. Axelle had believed it to be a penalty to her mission, but it only enhanced her in his eyes.
The party was held in the upper city of Taris, where the snobbiest of people dwelled. Everything here was snazzy and high class, with the topics ranging from politics to finances. The music was gentle and provided for ambiance. There were the stuffy women that often cast her a curious glance, wondering how Axelle had sneaked into such an exclusive party. She had deduced that everyone here had circles and connections with one another, and all the ‘new blood’ was viciously scanned and scoped out before they could join in. Axelle, fortunately, had caught the eye of one of the higher ups, and no one questioned her.
The table she sat at had all of Gorgovich’s henchmen at it. However, they were dressed as classy as everyone else, appearing to be like family to the former Alsakan general. Axelle knew she was making outstanding progress. Gorgovich’s brother, Sasha, already made it clear she was a treat to have around. The S-13 agent impatiently drummed her fingers on the table, watching as the men around her began to get drunk. Her vigorous training had raised her tolerance to alcohol, leaving her alert at all times. She knew the topic of anti matter would come up eventually. Her research told her that the man sitting adjacent to her was Kado Waris. He was in on this deal. Studying his expression told her that he was getting more and more impatient. His cheeks reddened and his grip on his glass tightened as the men veered off into frivolous topics such as podracing and gambling.
