"[It's so lovely to hear you ask about me, Ava… I figured it would be demure to check on Aubrey since I let go. Hahahaha]"
I immediately dragged the phone from Ava..
"Ghost Eastly I hope you under your stepping on the wrong foot.."
"[ Not at all Alexender, it's your foot I'm stepping on, I never make silly mistakes]"
"Why are you doing this?.. the human race is on the verge of extinction and you find it funny to be a pain in the ass!"
"What do you want.. Ghost?"
"[ I want several things Alexander, my apitite is large, but I want to you to be my friend]"
"[ i think we've been nemesis for too long, well not long enough for you but I've always known who you were, even before the disaster struck.]
"[ I made Aubrey call me Daddy even though she thought about you in the midst of action, what a shameful thing, i don't need that bitch anyway.]"
My hand fisted tightly, thinking about it, somehow I was allowing him get into my head.
"[ Your the one i need Alexander, you tick all the boxes to be under my mating system.]
"I still don't understand any thing you're saying.."
"Why should I ever have any form of partnership with someone who tore my love life apart.."
"[ I'm not the one to blame Alexander, it's your lovely fiancée, she's the one that broke you, all because you couldn't give her the thrill that don't sound good paper, instead she came to me.]"
"[ But look at the bright side, now you're a beast and I'm sure she regrets her every mistake's of the past.]"
I sighed, half-smiling. "What happens if i don't choose to be under your mating system?.. and create mine instead.."
I was calm, but my voice was not cocky-the words carried the weight of arrogance.
"[ What you don't seem to understand is, Having a mating system is a billion dollar venture, and we could be partners, let's reshape the world and make men elites again..]
"I already have my own plans and your not even part of it .."
"Who are you? You've been saying men this, men that, but are you a real man?"
"[ Hahahahahaha, I see you got a false information about me, Aubrey doesn't believe I survived without cutting my cock off.]"
'So Aubrey lied about that too! I can't believe I trusted her, but still he may be covering something up.'
"[ But I'll prefer to have that dialogue with you in person… so what do you say?]"
I clicked my tongue. "Tssk"." And paused for a moment, Avent Ava gave me signals to accept.
The silence stretched between them, thick with tension and barely concealed cruelty.
I nodded, my smile predatory but warm, mirroring the resolve I'd shown when I took her head signal to approve of the meeting.
"At what location?" I said.
"[ Ohh I forgot to include the Falcon to be present as well.]"
Ava loudly interjected. " Unfortunately Falcon cannot be present at your dumb negotiations,"
I stared at Ava in confusion. "I'm I the only one who doesn't know what Falcon is?, and why it's being referred to."
"It's the secret service code name for the President of the United States."
She clarifies. "Ohh I see.." I murmured inwardly, shaking my head.
"I'm not on good terms with President Rachel at the moment, so I'm not able to help out with that.."
"[ Falcon plays a critical role in this arrangement but it's fine, some other time is best.]
"[ I'm organizing a ball-party to celebrate my recent risen achievements, be at Egg tower at 10pm tomorrow, invite all your esteemed guests and sponsors, let's have fun and talk about the future… Hahahahaha.]"
"[ I'll be waiting for you Alexander Epstein, don't forget to have Aubrey tag along..]"
Pim~pim! The call hangs up.
"Can you imagine that sucker.." Ava voiced out her frustration.
"What do you suggest we do Master?"
"Uhmm by the way I want to correct something, I don't like it when I'm being called master in my day to day life, it's very cliche, so just call me Alex, you already know me as your superior, no need to be so professional…"
"And for now let's stay guided and move with precision.. No violence, except it's demanded."
Ava turned her gaze, bit her lower lip and smiled inward, then softening with a mix of surprise and warmth, as I considered her something more than just professional buddies, her thoughts kept circling back to the kiss.
"Okay Alex.." She said, her voice carrying the same measure of calm but more softer. She gave a crisp nod, at my order.
She raised her eyebrows, her eyes meeting mine.
Her voice softened, a hint of admiration creeping in."You've changed a lot, it's not just your suit or confidence or even looks."
"It's like a day and night difference.. You now emanate a toxic dominant energy..unlike when i first saw you at the laboratory.."
I smirked, letting my hands slide on her waist. Her breath hitched, but she didn't pull away.
Her gaze held mine, a still acknowledgment of the shift between us…. Her curiosity. Her attraction blurring the lines of professionalism.
My hands drifted lower, brushing the swell of her ass cheeks. A tender squeeze that sent a shiver through her..
She swayed closer and bit her lips. "Be careful, You're being too romantic now, I know all your games Alex." Her eyes are lustrous with a guarded desire..
She broke away from my arms, eyes blazing with untamed desire.
"We still have the whole night ahead of us". She whispered with a husky voice, with uncertain intentions..
She took several steps back as she exited the sitting room…

Authors note:
Readers I know this is kind of a confusing debate between if Ghost Eastley is a trans or not.
Between Aubrey and Ghost, who seems to be lying?.
Aubrey has a record of being a lying manipulative b*tch.
While Ghost is just a sociopathic narcissist at best.
There's no doubt, Ghost isn't beating the allegations of his trans sexuality.
I mean he literally has over and over proven them right, with the way he speaks so fluent and sassy, or the weird comments of having Alexander crack him. ..
