Chapter 0214
Deacon and | port into an empty apartment in a building that overlooks the park, whilst Luke, Axe, Mason and
Theo port to a disused train line in the underground station cross the street. Sof Raff's team are already
here and shave even managed to compel themselves onto the security team.
We know Cornelius will have informed his team to be on the lookout for bonded groups so it’s important that as a
female | am only seen with one male, otherwise we may draw suspicion. This theory is confirmed when a single
female with a group of three males is stopped at the gate and pulled to one side. We can’t see what is done to
them from here as they are led into a large white tent. | hold my breath as we wait, only releasing it when they
exit the tent unharmed.
Probably using compulsion to question them. If we get pulled in, remember to draw on Axel’s blocking gift and
make your gaze look vacant. Imagine you are in a daydream and answer their questions quickly and almost
robotically,” Deacon says.
“We should have practised this,” I sigh.
“We have tnow if you want to try?” he asks.
“Yes, do it,” | nod and he smirks. “Nothing weird,” | warn, pointing to my ear and my pin badge to remind him we
are being listened to and watched.
“Okay, look at me,” he says.
My eyes meet his and | pull on my connection to Axel as | see the intent in Deacon's eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Are you a Grey?” he asks and | let my face relax, unfocusing my eyes as | feel the command for the truth brush
against my mind, | almost smile when his power doesn’t work.
“No,” | say without emotion.
“Perfect,” he grins before leaning in and givinga chaste kiss.
“Train has just cin, we are moving out with the first crowd,” Mason says into the mind link.
Deacon tells him what we just witnessed at the gate and to be prepared to block the compulsion.
We watch as Mason and Theo exit the station and cross the road, before joining the queue to get into the park.
“You look too grumpy, you need to look excited to be there, like you can’t wait to meet this guy, he’s your hero,”
| Say to Mason.
“This is just how I look,” he grumbles.
“Uncross your arms and imagine holding your child for the first time, imagine teaching them to walk and talk,” |
say and watch as he drops his arms and a small smile plays on his lips. “Much better, Good Boy,” | tease and he
shakes his head with a smirk.
“You are going to pay for that later,” he responds.
“Don’t try to threatenwith a good time,” | laugh.
Theo takes over, talking animatedly as they make it past security and through the gates without a hitch.
“They're in, Axel and Luke, you're up,” Deacon says into the mind link before communicating it all to Raff.

Raff responds that Cornelius has not been sighted and they believe he has not arrived yet. Luke and Axel leave
the station and join the queue. Axel is very noticeable in the crowd, his large frdraws attention and | watch
as security points him out.
|
“Security is going to pull you in,” | warn.
“Let them try,” Axel grunts.
“They won't get past your gift, just remember to act compelled,” Deacon says.
f you need a distraction, just say the word and that tent will collapse, Luke can port you both out in the chaos,”
Mason says.
“Will do,” Axel says.
Axel and Luke are called into the tent and the air feels thick with tension as we all wait for them to emerge. The
seconds tick by so slowly and when they walk back out and are ushered through the gate | almost sag in relief.
“All good, they tried to compel us. It was strong,” Axel says.
“I think it might be the sone that tried to compel you, D., | don’t think we can risk you coming through
there, if you get pulled in he will recognise you,” Luke says.
“You're right, okay, look for a place we can port in unnoticed,” Deacon says into the mind link before
communicating the issue to Raff.
“I have men working to secure an area for you to port in,” Raff says through the comms.
“Tell them to close a bathroom, that is probably our best shot at getting in,” | say.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTwenty minutes later Deacon receives a photo of the inside of a disabled bathroom, he studies it before nodding
and then communicating to everyone that we are about to port in.
“Ready?” he asks.
“Let’s do it,” | nod.
Deacon pullsflush against him and closes his eyes, the smell of the bathroom hitsbefore the sight does
and | wrinkle my nose,
“Did they choose the worst one on purpose?” | ask, fighting off the urge to gag.
“Is it safe to cout?” Deacon asks as a cheer can be heard from outside.
“Yes, you're good, and you better hurry because Cornelius just made his grand entrance. He teleported onto the
stage,” Theo says.
Deacon pushes open the door and pops his head out before motioning forto follow, | take his hand and we
walk out to join the crowd that’s focused on the stage.
