Chapter 40 In The Hospital Again
Remora stood up and said, "It's alright."
Ethan did a double take. "Really? I mean ugh…"
She smiled at him, this time it felt a bit strange and started walking towards the door. Ethan's gaze widened as he looked at her back.
Wearing tight pants, that emphasized her big round ass. She was really sensual. An image of her bouncing her ass on his hard cock appeared in his mind.
He heard her say, "Stop having dirty thoughts and come with me."
Remora looked back, her lips still curled up. Ethan scratched his head, feeling a bit bewildered. Why was he feeling so horny at the moment? This was what Nyx meant by not being able to control his thoughts? Ethan had a strong feeling that there was more to this.
As for her noticing this, he gazed down, his dick was not hard so that meant it must be related to what she had said earlier. She could sense the energy surrounding people. As for what exactly this energy was, of course, Ethan didn't know.
What Ethan found the best was that he didn't have the sense of urgency and stress that haunted him like thirty minutes ago. He would first make sure about something with Remora and then call Sasha. Only then would he contact Scarlett or Dylan.
The order of events just proved his selfishness. He sighed.
Ethan got up and followed after her. He greeted the familiar doctors and nurses, who had a strange gaze but still responded back.
Then he turned to Remora and asked, "You will tell everything to the team leader? I mean the illusion scenes?"
"Why are you asking the obvious?" Remora asked back, her unchanging smile now creeping him out a bit.

She suddenly chuckled. "Don't worry. I won't say anything. And in truth, the leader doesn't ask me the content of the illusions unless it is important information."
"Or some person who is suspicious of you guys." Ethan said.
Seeing Remora nod, he added, "Like me."
As they took the corner, Remora suddenly stopped and turned towards him. "Don't think you are someone important."
"…"
"Yes, it's pretty nice that you survived the attack of those people but that doesn't make you some hotshot."
Ethan didn't get angry or feel bad because of that, instead he chuckled. "That's good to hear."
Even though Remora felt a bit weird, she was still approachable and friendly. Because of the things that happened, Ethan did come under their radar but it was good to hear that he wasn't treated differently.
As if pouring cold water on him, Remora licked her lips and said, "Unless I specifically tell my observation to the leader."
Ethan pressed his lips in a thin line. He took a deep breath and asked, "What do you want?"
"I…" Remora paused and then looked away, saying the rest in a whisper. "I want to feel the same."

Seeing the familiar screen in front of him and the tinge of redness on her face, Ethan was speechless—only for a moment—before coming to a conclusion. She wanted to be dominated just like in the illusion.
Ethan didn't know what to feel about this. Well, maybe it was good that he could shut her mouth with his dick.
He shook his head and went near her, asking, "In illusion you said that I can leave so can I? Or do I have to meet Miss Avery first?"
It was amazing that Remora's expression turned to normal when she was just blushing. She said, "No, you don't have to meet leader."
"Where are we going now?"
Remora cocked her head to the side. "So cold of you. You don't even want to see Izora and Sydney?"
Sydney was also here? They worked fast enough. He grumbled under his breath, "If you were this fast when I needed help, that would have been great." And then said, "I want to make an urgent call. Izora and Sydney are safe so meeting them can wait. It's not like the call will take much time."
"Alright," saying so, Remora took out his phone from her pocket. "I have already charged it."
Ethan thanked her and walked to the nearby staircase.
He saw that he had many missed calls and messages from Sasha, his stepmother, stepfather, and even from Mia.
He called Sasha. It rang for not even five seconds when Sasha picked it up.
"E-ethan?" Her choking voice sounded.
Ethan was pretty calm but now he didn't know why but tears fell down his face. He wiped them off and tried to speak in a normal voice. "I am sorry, Sasha. I-I am fine so don't worry about me."
"I saw… saw a picture going viral. It was a picture of a man who looked like you.. blood all over his face. It was scary. I was so scared. Are you really fine? Where are you?" Sasha sobbed. "I really want to see you, Ethan."
'Nyx, you scammed me again,' Ethan thought. He felt like he was losing control. Just listening to her voice made him feel so emotional.
"I also want to meet you, Sasha." He said, "Where are you? I'll quickly get there."
"I am with Sara. In the park near my house."
"Can you wait for me for some more time? I'll try to quickly get there."
Sasha seemed to have calmed down a little as her voice was not that sad now. She said, "now that I know you are safe. I am fine. I'll wait."
After disconnecting the phone, he wiped his wet face and turned to Remora who was silently standing behind him. Even before he asked, she said, "All the people in the list we got from you are under safe monitor of our agents."
