Jenny almost had an heart attack when she read the memo Lester had just sent her.
Seething, she stormed into Lester's office, interrupting a talk between Connor and Lester about the new project.
"You can't be serious. What hold has he got over you that you agreed to this nonsense?
"I see you got my note," Lester replied calmly. "Actually it's an instruction from above. So you’d better ask the Home Secretary or the Prime Minister that question."
"Oh this damned..." Just in time Jenny remembered that the words she had in mind weren't something a lady should use in presence of her boss. It was already bad enough that Stephen, Lyle and Jetrow had learnt about her extensive repertoire of cusses.
After taking a deep breath she asked, a little more composed, "Is there anything we can do to prevent it?"
Lester just shook his head. "I'm afraid not. At least not at the moment."
"Great."
Jenny spun on her heels and marched out of the office at the same fast pace she had entered.
Connor, who had watched the display with growing confusion, cleared his throat but didn't dare to ask what it had all been about.
Despite the fact that he was curious about what had brought Jenny to such a state he continued with his report as if he hadn't been interrupted. If it was something anomaly related then he certainly would hear about it soon.
"The last equipment we need has been delivered this morning and only has to be unpacked.. That means I can start on the project on Monday," Connor finished, relieved.
Lester was thankful that Connor kept his questions at bay. The young man had really grown up a lot in the last few months.
"That is good news. Perhaps we should now inform the rest of the team."
Connor looked guiltily to the floor. After clearing his throat for a second time he confessed, "Abby already knows about the secret project. I told her yesterday."
To Connor's surprise Lester cracked an amused smile. "So that leaves only Stephen and Jenny. Then I guess it can wait until the next staff meeting. It's too risky to enter Miss Lewis' office right now. Besides she and Stephen aren't exactly part of the research team. Thank you, Connor. Keep up the good work."
Connor's ears tinged with red at the praise and he hurried out of the room with a mumbled, "Thanks".
"What did you do to Jenny? She almost knocked me down in the corridor a moment ago," Cutter asked playfully as he entered Lester's office.
He quickly sobered when he spied Lester's serious expression.
"On Monday your team will get a new member," Lester stated quietly. "The Prime Minister thinks we need more skilled personnel."
"That's unexpected after all the precious budget cuts. Someone I know?"
"You might say so."
Puzzled, Nick took the personnel file Lester pushed towards him. His eyebrow rose up as he read the name of the new employee.
"I would have thought he's the last person you’d want near the ARC after the trouble he has already caused."
"It wasn't my idea. I'm only following orders from above."
"That explains Jenny's mood. And I guess Connor and Abby will not be very happy either."
"For this reason I'm not telling them today. There's no need to upset them so shortly before the weekend. It's bad enough Jenny had to know about it as our head of security."
"Perhaps it will work out better than we all think."
Lester's snort showed he wasn't at all convinced the new team member would fit in very well.
Oliver Leek took a sip of the cheap wine and pulled a face. Then a grin spread over his face as he watched his raptors tearing into the flesh of an old horse he had bought for next to nothing.
After Helen had managed to escape, Ruby and its hungry pack had attacked a watchman. Only the man's clothes and skeleton had remained.
Despite Leek’s anger that Helen hadn't met the same fate, his mood had cheered up after he had taken a look at the ID card tacked to the tattered jacket. With a little imagination the watchman had a distant resemblance to his foe, Sir James Lester. And just for this his pets had deserved a reward.
Indulging himself in fantasies of Lester begging for mercy whilst the raptors slowly consumed him Leek didn't taste the horrible flavour of the wine any more.
'Soon the day of the reckoning is coming,' Oliver Leek thought with glee.
"You're still sure you want me to accompany you to your cousin’s engagement party?" Stephen asked unusually subdued.
Lyle darted his eyes quickly to the left and right. Ascertaining that they were alone in the staff room, he pulled Stephen close for a kiss. Stephen groaned softly against Lyle's lips and opened his mouth eagerly as Lyle darted his tongue out.
'Mint toothpaste and chicken sandwich,’ Stephen thought fleetingly before he lost himself in the kiss.
They parted quickly when they heard steps nearing the room.
"Was that answer enough for you?" Lyle asked with a twinkle in his eyes while he returned to his seat.
When Finn and Willies walked into the staff room a moment later, Lyle and Stephen were sitting at their table and apparently discussing the latest results of the Carnegie Challenge Cup.
Finn just wondered why their breathing was a little too fast for such a mundane activity.
Thomas Barrows grinned as he put his mobile on mute. From his recent experience he knew how mad it could make you to be ignored over and over again.
Jenny was close to throwing her mobile against the next wall or at least stomping on it until only a pile of plastic particles were left behind.
She had tried to reach Barrows all day without success. The bastard must be ignoring her on purpose.
With a sigh she stuffed her mobile into her purse. Perhaps tea in company of Lorraine or Jetrow would soothe her rattled nerves.
What only was it about this man that made her loose control so easily? She always had prided himself on being the epitome of serenity, at least before she met Nick Cutter and then Barrows.
Connor, instead, was in a good mood as he left lab 8. The new project was finally ready to kick off. His relationship with Abby was deepening and even Lester had praised his work. And on top of it there hadn't been an anomaly alarm, ruining his plans for a nice evening with Abby at last minute. Everything was working in his favour for once.
Abby was already waiting for Connor in the atrium . Hand in hand they left the building for a movie night and a meal out.
One after another, the rest of the employees followed suit until only Lester, Cutter and the soldiers on sentry duty remained in the ARC.
"Want to go home?" Cutter asked softly, his back leaning against the door frame, watching Lester longingly.
He'd doubled the dose of his calming remedy after last night. Whilst it dampened his sexual appetite the yearning for close contact wasn't diminished by it. But not daring to make the first move anymore he had to be satisfied with the occasionally touch Lester initiated.
Lester looked briefly up and sent Nick a smile that made his heart miss a beat.
"Just a minute. I'm almost finished."
Later that evening Nick and Lester sat on the couch in the living room, watching the news. Lester had his arm on the back rest, his fingers gently playing with the fine hair at the nape of Nick's neck.
"I want to fuck you tonight," Lester suddenly announced in tune with the news presenter letting them know that the Euro had been dropping another 0.4% and had now reached a new record low.
"All right," Nick said calmly despite the fact that his heart was beating in a wild staccato, his cock had started throbbing in his pants and he felt the strange impulse to dance around the room.
It almost was alarming how much his thoughts centered around sex since he'd been drugged. Without the calming medicine he probably wouldn't be able to concentrate on anything else.
Already the thought that James wanted to fuck him had made him so painfully hard he was doubting he would last long enough for James to get inside him. Perhaps he should wank off in the bathroom before joining his lover in the bed.
Nick squeezed desperately his cock as he heard the voice from the bedroom. "What on earth is taking you so long?"
He was asking himself the same thing too. Although his cock was already leaking pre-come it was apparently unwilling to shoot his load yet. He gently rubbed his thumb over the head, groaning at the delightful contact before starting a moderate rhythm again with his fist loosely wrapped around his erection.
The next moment the bathroom door was forcefully opened. Nick gasped as a half-naked Lester appeared in the doorframe with a slightly worried expression on his face.
"I was worried you might have fallen ill."
Lester's eyes fixed on Nick's groin and his eyebrows raised almost up to his hairline.
Nick let go of his uncooperative dick, muttering sheepishly, "I wanted to make sure I'm going to last."
"From the look of it that doesn't seem to be a problem. How long have you been trying to jerk off already?"
"Long enough to get me worried," was Nick's quiet reply.
"Want me to help you?"
Before Nick could answer Lester dropped to his knees and engulfed Nick's cock with his lips, almost all the way to the root.
"Here?" Nick gasped out whilst jerking his hips and sliding in and out of Lester' mouth as through his body had a mind of his own.
The sight of James kneeling in front of him in the bathroom, sucking on his cock enthusiastically like some sort of delicious lollipop brought Nick to the brink in seconds. Before he could shout a warning he gushed in Lester's throat.
And Lester was taking it all. He only released Nick's still erect cock after cleaning the last traces of semen from the slit.
Masking his disgust at the taste in his mouth with a wicked smile, Lester looked up at his lover.
"God, James, I love you so much," Nick croaked out, still a little dazed.
After Nick had staggered into the bedroom, Lester quickly took some mouthwash and swirled it around his mouth before spitting it out. Then he shed his pyjama trousers and pounced on Nick.
With Nick tight around his cock, Lester moved gently in time with Nick's breathing. For the first time since they had started having sex again he felt really close to his lover the way it had been before the drug-induced attack.
Lester softly kissed the sensitive spot behind Nick's ear, glad that a simple fucking had turned into making love again.
