Five Husbands For Kindness

Kindness felt like kicking her younger brother in the balls as he stood in the middle of the room getting applauded for her hard work. All the other agents looked at him with admiration. She should be the one receiving all the appraisals. She was the one who captured the fugitive but passed out from its venom then her brother brought them back to HQ and changed the whole story, painting himself as her knight in shining armor.

Her face hid the emotions very well, she had a smile curved up but her sky blue eyes had a sinister glint in them, all she needed was a minute alone with him. As her mind plots evil, the head of their department walked in. She was a veteran with a visible scar drawn from her forehead to her right eye. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stood straight. They made a path for her. She had her hands in her camouflage pants as she approached the hero.

"The boss wants you in his office now, "she said, her Russian accent was deep.

"May I know why, boss?" Wave, Kindness's brother winked playfully at the woman who was almost the same height as him.

Looking into Wave's eyes Irena's plain face turned to a hard frown. "If you ever wink at me again I will stick two pencils in your eyes to stop them from twitching."

Wave gulped but immediately covered his fear with a smile, Kindness was a kin observer, she noticed it and her forced smile twisted to a mocking smirk. "We shouldn't keep the boss waiting."

Irena scoffed and turned around with Wave behind her. She halted making the man almost bump heads with her. Without turning back, she said, "new missions have been assigned to you all quit slacking and get to work."

Everyone began to squirrel out of the room, kindness calmly joined them. "Except you, agent Reyna." Kindness paused as her code name rolled out of her superior's tongue. "You have been given three weeks' leave to recover and get your shit together."

Kindness clenched her jaws and chortled to Irena's front. Her brows drew together. "I am fine, Irena, "she said between her teeth.

Irena raised a brow. "Did you miss the get your shit together part? Your actions compromised the mission if not for agent Wave that deadly vermin would have been unleashed on the public! Get -your -shit -together."

She intentionally brushes her shoulder with Kindness's. Wave grinned and winked, mouthing the last sentence Irena made. Kindness badly wanted to give him that kick now but it would just make matters worst. The last time she didn't control her emotions towards her brother, she got sent on a one-man dangerous mission that was meant to end her but she survived.

She clenched her fist so hard it turned white. A sigh came out of her mouth followed by the regulation of her breathing. She walked to the locker room which was behind a door ahead. Sitting on a bench with her stuff beside her, she unbraided her cornrows braids and combed them, letting them flow to her shoulders. Her curly blonde/brunette mixed-colored hair shimmered after she applied oil to it.

She was wearing an off-shoulder short-sleeved nude crock top that showed her D-sized cleaves, high waist blue mom jean that was ripped on the knees, and a pair of white Nike shoes, they didn't hide her hourglass figure.

She picked up the bag beside her as she rose, her frown was still refusing to retire. She clicked her tongue, at the moment only the taste of refreshing coffee can lighten her mood.

After going through various security protocols, she was out of the underground bunker that was her workplace. Above it was a sterling tower with VELOCITY CORPS decorated at the top. It was Lawn city's most popular technology company, her boss, Teddy was this city's ironman, he was multi-talented and flirty rich. If only the civilians knew what they really do here.

Driving out of the underground parking lot in her Audi A4, all of kindness's thoughts were on what her brother would get for capturing a rogue chimera. Teddy would reward him handsomely for her hard work.

"I found the chimera, I caged the chimera, I was bitten by the CHIMERA!" Her singsong voice sounded brittle as if she was about to cry.

Coming across a bend outside the parking lot, her phone began to ring from the back where her bag sat. She hisses in frustration and stretched her left hand to fetch it.

"Why can't I have some Pea...."

Screeeeee!

A car crashed with kindness's own, she immediately put the gear in reverse and then turned the car in a way that no one could enter the parking lot or exit it. She stormed out of her car looking like a bomb about to explode.

She jammed her fist on the bonnet of the car that crashed into hers aggressively. "Are you mad or fucking blind?! How dare you drive so carelessly!"

The Mercedes Benz AMG GT's owner trudged out of the vehicle hurriedly and trekked to her. "I am so sorry, I didn't see your indicator on so I didn't know you were coming." He apologized and pushed back his medicated glasses.

His low husky, sweet voice wasn't what silenced the once barking Kindness, it was his drop-dead gorgeous face that did it. Her lungs forgot how to pump as she gawked at him. His emerald green eyes entrapped her, she couldn't blink nor could she get her hand to continue the banging.

He had to be the most stunning man she had ever seen. He was wearing nothing but a tieless white long sleeve shirt and black pants yet he looked like one of those male models posing as a billionaire.

Sucking in his lips and shoving them back out Mr. Stranger slowly nudged the frozen kindness's shoulder.

"Miss are you okay?"

The mere palm-to-skin touch sent electric jolts through kindness's body. She jerked back and with the flutter of her lashes, her body began to function properly again. Thanks to years of breath-holding practice she didn't pant as her lungs struggled to get the required amount of air for proper function after the momentary shutdown.

She bridged her arms under her bust as her brows narrowed back into action. "I am waiting for your apology, you almost murdered me!"
