CHAPTER 1

Before Dakota came down from the power, Amy came scuffling out of her sleeping accommodation. Apparently, she was up late watching movies. The one I saw before going to bed was only one of three that the pack watched. I sat her down and gave her the update about what had happened. She looked like a lost puppy because this was not something that we had discussed as a mean value of security.

She asked if she could go drive a quick shower and then help on the earpiece. I sent her to get that shower as I would need a heads-up Amy.

Jill was pacing back and Forth. I couldn't William Tell if she was worried or if she was thinking about her side by side motility. BJ was pretty much her shadow. They sat down together and began discussing their melodic theme of what the side by side whole step for them might be.

The back room access opened and the seven from the studio and the kitty house filed in. Allison wouldn't facial expression at me. I directed everyone to put their poppycock in the sleeping room that they stay in when we are in lockdown.

Fred took his two nephews aside and spoke to them. Although I couldn't hear what was said, I knew it wasn't good as both son kept looking at the land. Aurora sat nervously at the kitchen board, not really looking at me. The porn twins went upstairs to the room that they had chosen to put their stuff down and came back down to the kitchen.

While citizenry were milling around, Dakota came downstairs with a big great deal of papers. She set them on the kitchen table and headed back upstairs. I flipped through them to see that all the Pinetree locations were printed out, each locating listed the address, the unit of measurement number, the phone, and fax number as well as the current superior general manager's public figure. I flipped through the muckle and took off about 10 pages and began handing them out.

Since it didn't really matter what locations you ended up with, I just took the top 10 page then the next 10 and so on.

"If I mitt anyone localization that are west of the Mississippi, please set them aside and strike on. Look at what I'm handing you right now and see if I need to give you a different set of 10 pages,"I tell the group.

One of the CG boys had pages for Arkansas River, I took those rachis and handed him the next 10. I decided to cover what should be said,"OK, everyone here's what I would like you to say to the link whole. ‘ hullo Mr. Julia Evelina Smith, I'm St. David from Jaxson, Inc. home plate office. We're aware that you currently have no computing device system. We've had a technical glitch and our IT department is working hard on fixing the issue as quickly as potential. When the system is restored you will incur a message that says our system is back online. Until you receive this message please have your multitude stay off our system of rules. Do you have any questions at this stage ? That's wonderful. Thank you for your help,"Then you should attend up and locomote on to the next unit.

"Does anyone have any head about what they are supposed to be doing ?"I ask.

"Yes sir, can Bobby and I make some phone calls to facilitate ?"Sammy says.

"Absolutely ! That is gravid of you guys,"I tell the two chefs. I see both CG male child and Allison not looking at me. I'm sure that Fred lit his nephews up and well, Allison, I can tell she's unquiet about what will materialize. dayspring is just sitting there with her ten pages acting as nothing has happened. I'll address this issue when things are much more resolve down. The porn twins and Belinda seem excited to participate as they have note launch pad, pens and their cell phones plugged into the wall to hold open them charged.

My phone buzz. It's Agent Heidi Longmire.

"Hello Mr. Greene, this is Agent Longmire. I believe you spoke with exceptional agentive role Fernandez and he let you know that I would be coming by to pick up your laptop. Please reassure me you have not opened that email,"she says to me.

"broker Longmire, the laptop is closed and unplugged from the wall. It is ready to be handed off to you when you get here. How far away are you ?"I ask her.

"I'm coming down your divine service route right now,"she says.

"OK, then I'll postponement until I see your car and then open the gate,"I say.

I head to the security camera in the kitchen to watch until I see her car. When I do see it, I poke the requisite push to open the gate. I watch her pull the car into the courtyard and I poke the push button to close the gate immediately after she pulls in.

I pick up the laptop computer and might cord and walkway over by the front door. As I wait for her to come to the doorway, I hear my chemical group making phone telephone call and almost repeating the lecture exactly that I gave them to say.

There is a whang at the door.

"Who is it ?"I ask.

"It's Agent Longmire,"she says.

"Please show me your certificate,"I say to her.

I open the threshold just a few inches and see her holding her FBI ID. I open the doorway the respite of the way and let her total inside.

"Um, Mr. Henry Graham Greene, what is going on here ?"she asks.

"I have my citizenry calling each social unit east of the Mississippi to let them experience that we have a computer issue and are working on it as fast as we can. They are asking the General Managers to keep their people off the scheme until service is restored. Right now, we are working on the hotel division, but as soon as we have Thomas More contact information printed out I'll tear the radical half working on the hotel class and half on the restaurant side,"I tell her. She sees the laptop but before I handwriting it over to her I ask my question,"factor, are you get married or in a relationship ?"

"That's kind of personal, isn't it. Mr. Greene ?"

"Not to me, it's not. I saw you running things when we had the shooting of your agents here. senior pilot Perez showed up and you turned the investigation over to him. I asked Special Agent Fernandez about you and he tells me that you are a strong worker and very dedicated to the FBI. I would care to invite you to dinner to run across someone who works just as hard as you do. He owns his own business and, in my oral sex, I think the two of you would be compatible. However, let me be well-defined, I'm not matchmaking, I'm just doing introductions. If nothing happens then that's fine, but if you work as intemperate as I think you work then maybe having person to talk about work to might be of interest to you. If not, well then you got a nice dinner out of it. Have I scared you off ?"I ask her.

"Um, well……. I guess it's alright. I do act a lot and really have no time to go looking for someone to hope for a relationship. It's not like I'm going down to the local pub to pick up someone that I can't check out ahead of sentence. Yeah, I'll be happy to go to dinner with whomever. One little note, I'm allergic to bell peppers. Doesn't issue the coloring material just bell common pepper in worldwide. Here's my wit, let me save my personal cell phone number on the back as I don't want to get in worry for using the means cell phone for personal business,"she says to me as she pulls out a pen and writes her number on the back.

"Thank you, Agent. Here's the laptop computer,"I say as I script her the computer. She puts the laptop into an evidence bag and seal of approval it. I open the battlefront door for her and out she goes. I go back to the security arrangement and poke the clitoris to spread out the gate and look out her leave.

I call Donna.

"Donna, how are affair going ?"

"well, David I'm glad you gave me whoremonger. He's been a big supporter calming mass down that are here. He is also taking send for escalations and handling frantic customer. He's sorting the manual of arms reservation into 27 piles, one for each state of matter and one pile for Washington DC. I form of look useless he's doing so much for the Call center,"Donna tells me.

"Well, then we made a expert call sending him to your mathematical group. We're making calls from here. We have everyone working on it, even Bobby and Sammy. Mom and Fred are making calls as well,"I tell her. She laughs a bit, but I can secern it's a nervous laugh.

"I'll touch modality infrastructure with you later, keep working. Oh, one Sir Thomas More matter how many people do you birth working ?"

"Right now, 75, but in about 90 minutes the second fault arrives and that will take us to about 200. Why do you ask ?"

"I just wanted to keep check on how much help you have there since you are doing things manually. If you feel you need more people, then call them in. We'll study on the OT later,"I tell her. She thanks me and we end the call.

I dial up Paula next.

"Hello Paula, how goes the limo business ?"

"Really retard. The scheme is virtually down so we are taking mental reservation for limos manually. We're explaining that we have a system of rules issue but not to concern as our IT department is working on it as fast as possible. So far everyone seems OK with that account,"she tells me. I exhale a bit, as we have two businesses doing ok manually.

I hear Amy behind me telling mortal that I'm on the phone.

I end my call with Paula and walking over to Amy and gently take the telephone from her.

"Hello, this is David Greene. Whom am I speaking to ?"I ask.

"This is Mark interpretation. I'm a district director for a Pinetree district in Dallas. What the nether region is going on with our system ?"

"Mr. Reading, we have a large military issue with our computer system for every computing device eastward of the Mississippi. Did Amy not evidence you that we have a computer issue and that the IT department is working on the issue ?"I ask him in an nark voice.

"Well, I can't do my job with no computer. I need to appear at yesterday's numbers before I go home,"he tells me. I look at my vigil it's 12:05 pm which makes it only 2 pm in Dallas.

"Please tell me when you go home,"I say to this dominion manager.

"I stay all the way until 3:30 pm since I got here at 9:30 this morning,"he replies.

"well, since we are having issues, you may take to stay a bit longer tonight,"I tell him rather than explode on him as we are quite vulnerable.

I hear a longsighted pause before I get an answer,"OK, I guess I can stay since its only one dark,"he tells me.

"Well thank you. I'll be in touch sometime over the side by side few days,"I say to him. In my drumhead, I don't understand how the district managing director think it is OK to go home at 3:30 pm. After we get through this major issue, I'm going to rattle a few cages to remind them that since they are on remuneration, they must work a minimum of 45 minute a week. As I count, this territorial dominion coach is working a sum of 6 hours a day times 5 day and that comes to 30 time of day. He's a full 15 hour short and being paid for 45 but only working 30. That is going to change rather quickly. I have my programme B ready for my unannounced visit back to Dallas. I think about Seattle having the same publication and need to depend at management Indian file, but with the FBI having my laptop, that will have to expect a bit.

I decide to text Rob."I know you're very busy. Are you making any progress ?"

I let my headphone sit for a bit as I plug it into the courser in the kitchen. I see people making big footstep with the pageboy that I gave them. Dakota comes down the steps with another enceinte computer software of papers for making yell.

"Everyone, when you finish the call, you're on. Don't make another call until I tell you,"I say out meretricious for everyone to hear.

I see people putting their sound down. Bobby and Sammy are chatting quietly about one of them making lunch for everyone. I'm quite proud of the porn twins and Belinda, they look like they have made the most calls as their peck of document is much declamatory than anyone else.

When everyone ends their stream calls, I divide the tabular array in half so some may make hotel calls and others will make restaurant birdcall. I put the erotica twin and Belinda to start out making restaurant calls.

I get a text edition from Rob. It reads,"making PROGRESS. power BE UP IN ABOUT 75-90 moment. STAY TUNED"I smile seeing this reply.

I call Boston marketplace to decree lunch for the shout center and Happy limousine and Negroid Car limousine.

"Thank you for calling the Pasadena Hub of the Universe Market, this is Christmas carol speaking. will this order be to go or dine in ?"I am told on the phone.

"Christmas carol, I want to make three great Holy Order. How quickly can they be ready ?"I ask.

"well 5-15 sandwiches about 35-40 min forever 5 sandwiches add 10 to a greater extent minutes,"she says. I think to myself that it will be dinner time before all the food is ready. Christmas carol, that's all I needed to get laid, I'll call you another time,"and flow up the phone.

Next, I call El Marco Polo Norteno and ask about catering for 150-200 people, how long would it take and what would be the manner of speaking fee for it going to two different positioning. The delightful lady tells me it will shoot about one 60 minutes to have all the lunches made and be on the road for saving. I place two sets of lunches : one is chicken on a salad, the other is three fully loaded beef tacos. The lady gives me a monetary value plus the livery fee. I give her my Visa and add a 20 % tip for the device driver. She asked the speech and some early apt questions, such as do the buildings have a secure entrance, whom to predict if the driver can't find a parking situation, and is there anyone who can forgather the device driver at the threshold since the order is so turgid. I answer the questions and she tells me an society turn. I thank her and go deterrent on my phone callers.

Sammy asks if grilled cheese sandwiches and Lycopersicon esculentum soup would be alright for luncheon. I shrug my shoulder and secern him that it sounds fine.

I walk around and catch everyone's progress. Mom is doing well, she doesn't have as many birdsong as some of the others, but Fred is more than making up for her want of progress.

Surprising to me is that the porn Gemini and Belinda are making huge strides with their call lists. When they run across an incorrect phone figure, they dial the fax line to see if that would be answered. If that line isn't answered, they circle the number and hand the sheet to Dakota for her to track down the correct number.

Everyone is doing a great job. I pull out some cups and fill them with ice water for the ladies. They take the cup and salute the water down quickly. I carefully watch Dakota to make certain my deary is drinking enough water.

CHAPTER 2

I get a birdsong from Donna ; she is completely surprised that lunch showed up. I told her that I appreciated all the work they were doing and to please defecate sure that bathroom gets at least one lunch, maybe even two. Donna laughs and thanks me for taking care of the staff.

A few mo later I get a call from Paula thanking me for luncheon for her people. I tell her that I appreciate all the intemperately work that her chemical group is doing.

The telephone set calls go on for a couple more hours. The lunch that Sammy made was delicious. The phone group stopped, and we all enjoyed the food, but there were lots of conversations about how hoi polloi reacted to the telephone calls.

At the end of the lunch, Allison came over to me.

"I guess I'm in trouble. Do you want me to strike out ?"She says in a defeated manner.

"Why would I want you to motivate out ?"I ask.

"Because I think that you're mad at me,"she says.

"Should I be mad or is there a reasonable explanation for what happened ?"I asked.

"Well, it seemed reasonable at the time, but now that I've had a chance to think about it maybe not,"she says.

"Allison, as I see it, you violated the one affair I asked you to not do. Film any of the family or playgroup and you did that. Do I not take care of you ? Was what I asked to difficult ? I'm at a release, please explain how we got to what I found you doing with the CG boys and morning,"I say to her.

Her eye tear up. She's finding it hard to speak and go for back the sobbing. I put my arms around her. Yes, I'm annoyed but I just want an explanation.

"Allison, what made you do what I had asked not to have done ?"I ask her again.

"David, I'm so dark. dawn came to me asking to suffer a common soldier film of a fantasy of hers. She brings the two CG boys along. The porno counterpart tell the son and Aurora that they should wee porno together, that it will be fun and exciting,"she starts to assure me.

"So how did you jibe to do the motion-picture photography ?"I ask.

"Aurora kept telling me that she isn't voice of the playgroup, that she is just an old girlfriend. I believed her. I shouldn't have, but I did. I still have the hale matter on the camera. What do you need me to do with it ?"she asks.

"hoopla your camera into the security system and make me five videodisk. Once for Aurora, one for each of the CG boys, one for Fred, and one for me."I tell her.

At this point, her eye are a steadfast stream of bout. I pull the arm of my tee shirt out and wipe her eyes. She really looks pitiful, her eyes all puffy, her nose track, and her breathing a bit stuttered.

"Allison let's phone call this a poor cause of judgment. But please understand, even if they beg you on their hand and stifle you will not film anyone that lives or stays here in the Chateau. I hope you understand what I'm telling you. NO ONE gets filmed, without my OK. My mansion, my convention. Got it ?"I ask her. She is barely able to communicate with me she is crying so profusely.

"Please do me a party favour and go get the CG boys,"I ask her to do.

She gets up and others ask what's wrong and what's going on and why is she crying. She just shakes her read/write head and walks away going to find the CG boys. I see Dakota watching Allison as she walks away. Dakota knows but so far, she hasn't included herself in this issue.

It takes a few bit, but Allison returns with both CG boys. I kiss Allison on the impertinence and tell her to wee the DVDs that I had asked for. She picks up the television camera and plug it into the security department organisation and calls up the film.

The two CG boy come over to me as if they have no idea what I summoned them for.

"valet lets go out to the sustenance room to jaw for a couple of second please,"I turn and walk to the living room. They follow me.

"Guys, do either of you have any theme why I want to speak to you two away from everyone else ?"I ask.

"No sir,"

"You have no estimate. I find that hard to trust. Let me clew you into what I saw that annoyed me. The two of you making porn with aurora and having Allison film it. Was I not shed light on, weeks ago when you two came to live with me and the family that no one from our group gets filmed without my OK ? I don't want anyone of the playgroup making porn. That's the eccentric of matter that brings undesirable tending to the house. Was I not top about that when you two moved in here ?"I ask of them.

"Yes, sir you were clear. We didn't think we were making porn. We thought we were satisfying the fantasy of the Aurora wench. However, she suggested that you might be green-eyed that we were having fun with her,"One of the Guy tells me.

"valet, I don't care if you fuck her until the peel on your dicks fall off. What I care about is things like that of the people that live here, including you two knuckleheads. Why would you two do this ?"I ask.

"Because it sounded like fun. Our lady friend told us that making erotica can be fun and exciting,"the former one tells me.

"Please don't tell me that you're now blaming your activity on the twins,"I say to them.

"No, sir. We're not saying that. We made a small mistake in mind and am sorry for it,"

Allison comes over to me and hands me 5 DVD magnetic disc. I had one each to the CG boy. They sheepishly accept the disk.

"What night should we show it to the house ?"I ask.

"Um, we would prefer you not do that please,"one says to me.

"But why not ? You wouldn't be embarrassed, would you ?"I ask.

"Um, yes sir we probably would be embarrassed,"they tell me.

"I would like you to take this one DVD and hand it to your Uncle Fred. A man who has been truehearted and handles himself like a gentleman's gentleman,"I say to them.

One of the boy accepts the DVD but just holds it staring at it. The former boy doesn't even look at the DVD. I know that asking them to give one of the videodisc to their uncle will embarrass them and him. I hold my hand out and ask for the disk back.

The boy holding it exhales as he puts the platter in my hand.

"Gentlemen, please don't do this type of thing again without checking with me. If you want to stimulate Allison flick you and whomever, that's very well with me, but not here not on these curtilage, got it ?"I say to them in a very stern fashion. They both shake their top dog in agreement and once again apologize.

"Gentlemen, delight call up you are a guest here and everything you do reflects on your uncle,"I say to them. They both thank me for giving them a second chance.

"Please ask aurora to come to sit with me,"I say to the CG boys.

Both get up and go over to her. She finishes her phone outcry up and walks over to me and plops herself down on the couch.

"Yeah, is there something you need ?"she asks.

"You to jam your stuff and move out of my house,"I say to her. Her center get declamatory and I see she is now pissed off.

"Oh, you're jealous of me choosing the two guy rope to make sex with. I'm an adult. I'm a grown womanhood and can choose to consume sex with or not have sex with anyone I choose,"she tells me.

"Aurora, you are absolutely correct. However, you violated one of my few rules here. But clearly, you don't care. So, it's an easy choice, you have until tonight to carry your stuff and leave. I'll call you a cab when you're gear up to go,"I tell her in a calm non-threatening voice.

"piece of tail you. I'm done with this prick. Your formula are stunned. I don't live here so they don't pertain to me. You should get that through your thick principal,"she barks at me. I see a span of the earpiece group turning to watch. Dakota modification hind end to the end of the dining elbow room mesa, where I usually sit.

I just grin at her ; this I know really pisses her off. She tries to get under your hide and poke your buttons to get a response out of you, but when you don't react it only infuriates her.

She gets up and storms to the bedroom that she is staying in. It takes less than 5 hour for her to gather her stuff and come stomping back to the aliveness elbow room. Dakota had already called for a cab while she was packing her poppycock.

"Your cab will be here in just a few minutes. I'll let you go outside the logic gate to await for the cab. The cab is already paid for and is going to take you back to your own home. I hope you have a good lifespan,"I say to her again in a cool off mode. She is furious now and is stomping around. I open the presence door for her and let her take the air outside into the court cussing and swearing at me. When she gets to the security gate, I poke the button to have it start opening. When she goes through the partially heart-to-heart gate, I poke the clitoris again and it begins closing.

I turn around and ask how things are going on the phone calls. I get a sunshine that they have completed all the speech sound calls. I tell them that we are through for the day. I missed my sound buzzing when I was speaking with the CG son and cockcrow. The schoolbook was from Rob. It read"scheme FIXED. EVERYTHING IS BACK UP. WE NEED TO wealthy person A SERIOUS word ABOUT UPGRADING THINGS IN OUR SYSTEM TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. GOOD Nox, ROB ”.

I read the text to everyone and the unit room cheers. I tell the pocket billiards menage gals and the CG boys to maneuver back to their house.

I open the security system shutters on the backside but only the undercoat floor.

Sammy and Bobby want to lease an hour off to rest a bit before they make dinner. I offer to buy dinner for everyone from either Outback or Carrabba's, the elbow room chose Outback. I told them to write down what they wanted to eat, and Dakota will call it in. She looked surprise that I assigned this to her to get done. She smiles and blows me a kiss.

I hustle upstairs to the billet to let Jill be intimate that the system of rules is back up. She thanks me and gets back to mold with BJ. I tell them both that Outback is being ordered and to text Dakota what they want for dinner.

I kiss Jill and differentiate her she was great. I kiss BJ on the cheek and tell her thank you for keeping Jill sane for the day. She smiles at me and say me that I'm welcome.

CHAPTER 3

When the dinner from Outback arrives, everyone is circling the poor delivery boy like a shark circle a swimmer.

I put the food on the dining room table and assure everyone to dig in. Most of the lady took some of the Cesar salad but Diane and Dakota took no salad but took a steak each. Dakota texted Jill and BJ that the food was here, and they need to come down before John Lackland gets home.

I don't know why but an Outback steak didn't really sound that interesting. I did some quick math to guarantee that we had enough intellectual nourishment for everyone, including the ones at the Hawk, the call core, and the limousine companies. I'm always impressed with Dakota. She anticipates things, but she has done a wonderful job at teaching John to forestall both issues and fixes.

As it is now after 5 pm, I have Amy form the pages into two piles, hotel pile, and eating house pile. I make the decisiveness that we need to take in a overlord listing here at the sign for hereafter problems.

My headphone bombilation, its Agent Longmire.

"Hello Agent, what do I owe this phone yell ?"

"Mr. Greene, I'm really glad you didn't unfastened that email. Our techs moved that electronic mail into a blank computer and it fried the hard effort in about 45 seconds. It's a engineering that we haven't seen used in quite a patch,"she tells me.

"I'm going to charter a guessing that you believe that it belongs to that Mexican drug cartel. Am I close ?"I ask her.

"WOW, you are pretty skillful. However, you let me get away without discussing the two bozo you say were Russian character that came to your security gate trying to get in. Agent Fernandez tells me you can work a DVD of them. If that is true, may I ask you for a party favor to make us a pair of those videodisk please ?"she asks.

"I would be happy to. When will you occur by to foot them up ?"I ask her.

"Um, can't I just commit another factor ?"

"No, since you're getting a unfreeze dinner out of me, you can quit by and beak them up. We can also hash out when you're useable for dinner and where you would like to go,"I tell her.

"Uggggh, you're killing me. OK, how about tomorrow morning, I'll hitch by and get the DVDs from you and we can discuss your ‘ intromission'to this guy,"she says with a bit of a giggle in her voice.

"That sounds wonderful. I look forward to seeing you, Agent Longmire. Have a undecomposed night,"I say to her as we end the call.

I decide to dial up Patrick, dawning's boss. In my nous, this might be a hard phone call but I'm ready for virtually anything after today.

"Hello, this is St. Patrick,"he answers the phone.

"St. Patrick, this is David Greene. Do you give a distich of minutes to spill ?"I ask.

"Um, WOW, did you ever puddle off dayspring. I've never seen her so mad and boy o boy does she not hold lady-like tidings for you. I thought that I was the only one that can spend a penny her off that badly,"he says to me.

"Patrick, I have a delightful ma'am who works as many hours a week as you do. I think, at to the lowest degree in my straits, that you two might be well suited for each early. However, if you're in a relationship, then block I asked, but if you're not, then my wife and I would care to take you two to dinner. We will do the introductions. We'll have a Nice dinner and if you and she are interested, you can switch over headphone identification number. Jill and I are only offering you dinner and an institution. sound like something that you might be willing to do ?"I ask.

There's a retentive pause. Just before I say something Patrick says,"Yeah, that sounds like a nice even. What sort of restaurant would this be, as I'm not a great deal for the whole courting thing,"he says to me.

"How about Outback, Carrabba's, or Longhorn's chophouse. Energy Department any of those sound OK for you ?"I ask.

"Heck, all of them are wonderful. How about you and your wife make the pick. Just let me recognize where and when to usher up and we're on,"he tells me. However, I have a design to pick him up in a limo and her as well, let them consume a conversation before we even get to the restaurant.

After I hang up, I go upstairs to natter Jill and BJ. Once again, they are working hard. I'm not sure what they are doing, but they're having discourse about the stock and the conversion to a whole new setup. I see Jill looking through paperwork from the SEC regarding conversion of publicly held line. Jill and BJ are ensuring that they follow the rules for what's planned.

"Darling, we are going to be taking two people out to dinner soon, one of my introduction dinners, do you have a orientation for where we go to dinner, or should I just set everything up and let you experience after its all set up ?"I ask.

"Just take tutelage of it, darling. You know I trust you,"she says to me.

I go over and kiss her, but she seems annoyed with me now. I kiss BJ on the cheek and head back downstairs. Once there, I hear several voices, everyone from the war hawk has made it home. Paula and Donna, along with John have all arrived as well.

Mom and Fred excuse themselves from the group. I think that Mom hasn't worked that operose in a tenacious, farseeing time and she is just plain wear out out. Fred has made her a dinner party dental plate and is carrying it behind her as they head to her bedroom.

"Hey, Mom. Thank you for all the hard body of work that you and Fred put in today. We couldn't have gotten through it all without your avail,"I say before they go into her elbow room. I see her gust me a kiss through the air as they shut the threshold behind them. In my head, I really like having Mom here at the Chateau. She's sort of taking the grandma placement giving some of the younger lady friend'advice and for the older single like Paula, she listens when they have questions. Mom will suffer a glass of wine with some of the gentlewoman, something she is probably enjoying. I make no mention of Bob as she is enjoying life and there is no want to get her emotions all stirred up about being a widow.

I head over to the kitchen, where the group is hanging out. John is eating like a man who hasn't had food in days. First, he attacked the Caesar salad, which surprised virtually everyone. From there he took not one, but two sirloin steaks, a bombastic baked potato, and some broccoli. He loaded the tater with butter, tartness emollient, and bacon. Then he just sat down at the dining room table and began to eat. He didn't say a Logos about the day, but I am very proud of him. He probably is the reason the call center went as well as it did. In my head, he is really display house of making good decisions and helping everything we have going on.

I sit down in one of the dining elbow room hot seat, I get kissed from Jennifer, Paula, and Donna as they are picking a chair at the table to eat their Outback dinner. Diane gets her plate and sits down next to John.

I see Allison sitting at the early end of the table. She is eating and not participating in any of the word going on. She looks up at me and then backs down at her food. I make myself a scale and go sit by her.

"Interesting day today, eh ?"I ask trying to lighten the mood.

"David, I'm sorry,"she says decent off the bat.

"Hey, we're done with all that. I'm not looking to get rid of you. I see you as character of the folk, I hope you know that"I say to her. However, that draws the bust out once again. I still haven't figured out how to have this conversation with her without her sobbing.

I pull my death chair right up next to her. I put my arms around her and pull her in tightly to me. I just hold her as she tries to contain the rent. I don't say a Good Book ; I just withstand her. We probably sit there for about 9 or 10 minutes before she has finally gotten control of her emotions.

As she lifts her head off my shoulder, I lean in and kiss her. She responds kissing me as well. I begin to caress the back of her head as we embrace. I hear her purr a bit in my ear, which makes me smiling. I lean back and see that she is now smiling a bit, not a big grin, but a smile none the less. She goes back to eating her dinner party and finally starts participating in our group discussion of the entire day.

As I listen, I hear a family-like endeavour to overcome the events that were presented to us today. I need to expend some time on the speech sound with Rob, what will it pick out to protect our system ? Does it require new waiter ? Are there firewalls that can't be broken ? Is there software that will help protect from an invasion ? Are there trigger for unauthorized people ? I have lots of questions for Rob, but I want to establish him a few hours of slumber first.

"Saint David, you need to depend at this,"Jennifer says to me.

I get up from my president and walk over to the security measures camera. Once again, we have three people standing at our gate shaking it and rattling it trying to get into the courtyard. I poke a release and say into the speaker,"hi, who are you ?"

The three guys, who are speaking in a Spanish dialect say something that I can't understand."Guys, the police force have been called. Please stay where you are until the authorities arrive,"I say to them. This prompts them to accept off running. Apparently, they have learned their example about driving a car down the Robert William Service road.

"John the Divine, go get your gun,"I tell him. It only takes a yoke of moments before he returns with his pistol. I go to my bedroom and get my weapon as well.

"Let's go chink the straw man gate out. I hit the security lights, which lights the courtyard up like a baseball stadium. I unlock the front doorway and john and I step outside. I hear Dakota tell us to be careful. No one is at the gate, but there is something sitting on the ground. John and I approach it slowly. lav gets close to the box, but I warn him that it may be an volatile or something else that will harm him. He tries to look at the box without touching it.

He tells me he can't tell what is in it and will not try to move it. I hear something behind us, I turn and see both Bobby and Sammy with their guns on their pelvis. Bobby suggests that we call the police and let them deal with it. I agree and pull out my mobile phone phone and dial up 911. I explain to the emergency dispatcher what is going on and that three guys of Hispanic American backgrounds have left a box at our nominal head gate and we are unsure if it is safe to open or not. The hustler tells me to not adjoin the box and social unit should be at the house in just a twain of minutes.

I back John away from the gate and ask everyone to go back into the house. In about three minutes, police have arrived. I step outside and point to the box. They tell me that they are going to feature the turkey squad come to the household and check out the box. They want us all to outride inside, which I push everyone back in the house.

It takes the dud police squad about another 20 hour before they show up. Once they do, it takes them a few to a greater extent minutes deploying their robot. The robot picks up the box and takes it down the service road. Once it is away from everyone, the robot opens the box. Nothing happens. The Sargent in rush yells at me to come out to the gate, which I do. John follows me acting as my bodyguard.

The Sargent introduces himself. He tells us that the box has a mannequin head decorated to look like me. I ask if he's sure that there is no explosive material, the John Singer Sargent tells me that they will read the headspring back to the law station and X-ray photograph it and dust it for fingermark. He also told us that the forensic team will run down the box and check it for the balance of explosive material. I watched as the automaton took the box and loaded it into a constabulary van.

I thanked the Sargent for his team's difficult work and asked when I will get a copy of the news report, he told me it would be a couple of days, but they would make trusted that I got a copy. After about an minute, they packed up all their hooey and left.

As I got inside, Jill came running down telling me she had a strange email on her computer.

"Don't undecided it. I'll margin call Special agentive role Fernandez,"I tell her.

I dial up Fernandez. It rings a couple of times before it goes to voicemail. I tell him on voicemail that we have, well Jill has, another one of those e-mail and that we are not opening it or touching it. I ask Jill to turn off her computer and unplug it. She heads back on a higher floor and does just that. As I begin to worry about this new email, I wonder if maybe I should be using a public use computer, like the 1 they have at the public library. I'll stoppage with Fernandez and ask his opinion.

Jennifer comes over to me, once I was back in the house and hands me an odd-looking envelope. It had my figure and the house address handwritten on it, with no getting even address and the postage stamp was that of an American language masthead, but it was upside down, a sign of the zodiac of distress.

I took the alphabetic character to the kitchen, where I retrieved a sharp shaving knife from the fumbler city block to open this missive. Slowly and carefully, I slid the bound of the blade along the edge of the game flap. I let the tongue cut through the border of the envelope.

Carefully, I looked at it to see if there was anything that resembled some sorting of tripwire. I didn't see any, nor did I feel any. I decided to select the envelope out back by the pool. I figured if there is some variety of explosive cloth, I can thrash about it into the pee. As I pulled the sides of the envelope apart, I see that there is a piece of paper inside the envelope folded in a tri-fold manner. I gently pull the paper out of the envelope, setting the gasbag down on the pool deck.

Looking carefully at the man of trifold paper, I began to stretch it. On the face of the paper is words that are obviously cut out from magazines and glued on the theme. I read the short letter. It says,"We asked you nicely the first clip to pay, but you refused. We asked you nicely a s prison term, and again you refused. Now, mortal close to you, that is important to you will die before the end of the hebdomad. Maybe that will get you to pay. Trouble is coming and coming soon"

I sit and stare at this letter. I'm not sure how to answer. Trying not to touch the letter, I fold it back up and put it back into the envelope.

I set the varsity letter down on the table at the end of the sustenance room couch. I dial up Fernandez, it goes to voicemail. I hang up and dial him again, and again it goes to voice mail. I decide to dial up Agent Longmire.

"Hello, this is Agent Longmire. Who is calling ?"She asks.

"federal agent Longmire, this is David Graham Greene. I'm calling because we have received an odd letter that is telling me that mortal close to me will die before the end of the week,"I say to her.

"wealthy person you touched the letter of the alphabet ?"

"Yes, I held onto the bound of the gasbag and used a paring knife to open the envelope. Once it was open, I carefully pulled the letter out, trying not to touch the composition but I'm sure that I did. I'm really not for sure what I should do about this,"I tell her.

"Mr. Greene, that is OK. Please put the gasbag into a Ziploc bag without touching it again. Use a dyad of pincer to peck it up,"she says to me.

"Yes Ma'am, so you'll be here in the morning to get it from us ?"I ask.

"Oh no, I'm coming right now. I should be there in about 20 hour, if that's OK with you,"Agent Longmire says to me.

"Of course, it's OK. the pits, it could be 4 am and it would be OK,"I say to her. She thanks me and hangs up.

I head over to the security system in the kitchen. I make the system go back to midnight and arrive at a DVD of the front man gate from midnight until about 5 minutes ago. I know that there is something there for the FBI to pursue.

My mind immediately goes to Dakota or Jill as the fair game. I gather the entire family back in the TV room to discuss this new threat.

CHAPTER 4

Once I have everyone in the TV room, I begin to secernate everyone what we know so far and what the FBI and local police are doing.

"right wing now, we have a jeopardise letter claiming that because I didn't pay the extortion money that they asked, someone close to me will die before the end of the workweek. I'm not sure if this letter is credible or not, but all of you know that we just replaced all the windows because of the shooting back at the FBI party. Agent Longmire is on her way over here to accumulate the letter of the alphabet, the gasbag, and a DVD of our security camera for the past 24 hours,"I tell everyone.

I see the fear in the eyes of my folk. I'm not sure what to do. I hear Fred's voice behind me asking me a question,"David, didn't you mention that you had 4 guys from the Secret Service unforced to be your escort and Jill's ? Maybe you need to hire them. I would also suggest that no one drives to work alone. We should probably pair up and those who have a impart permission should start carrying their arm for safety,"Fred suggests to me, which makes a whole bunch of sense.

"Fred, that is a good idea. Does anyone else have any estimate about how we can continue every one of the kin safe ?"I ask the room.

Jennifer speaks first,"Maybe those of us who work at the same topographic point, such as the mortarboard should all tease in one vehicle, say Saint John the Apostle's truck or my truck. Both trucks have tinted windows, so coming out of the service department, it would be difficult for the bad bozo to see who is in the fomite,"she says.

Paula adds,"We could also schedule a limousine or two to come to the mansion as if it is picking up someone from the family, when in fact it isn't getting anyone."

Dakota joins the conversation,"I think you need to have your new PR person announce to the culture medium that mortal is trying to shake you down by threatening you. denote that both the FBI and the local police are involved

"We probably should castrate our number of when we leave and return to the house,"Donna says.

"I like all of these estimate. Let me just say that this threat against one of you makes me worry. You all know that you mean the world to me and I don't want to hazard even one life in this house. I just don't know what the proper move it to protect you,"I say to the room.

"David, we're not children. We are a kinfolk and will watch each former's spinal column until we know for sure enough all is safe,"John Lackland says to me. I know he's right, but I'm not willing to take a chance anyone. My mind begins to wonder if I should just pay and be done with it, but my gut tells me ‘ HELL NO ’, which is the path I'm taking now.

I hear my phone buzzing. I walk over to it and serve it.

"howdy, this is David,"I say into my phone.

"You should have paid senor. Now you are down one of your group. Pay up or you'll be down another,"the individual on the other end of the phone call says to me in a Hispanic accent.

I scan the room trying to forecast out who I'm missing. The guy said that I'm down one, who is not here ?

Dakota, Jill, Amy, Jennifer, Donna, BJ, Danni, Diane, Allison, Paula, and Sharon are all here for the ladies.

"Someone go out to the pool home and check on the ladies and Fred's nephews,"I say to the way. John hops up and nous outside to the pool house.

"Jill, song Ronda. shuffling sure as shooting she is OK,"I say to Jill.

She picks up her phone and begins dialing. Ronda answers on the world-class ring. Jill chats with her and updates her on what's going on. She says she hasn't seen anyone following her or watching her. She did ask Jill when she gets to puff my ass into bed again. Jill giggled and asked,"Do you remember about sex all the time ?"

"Of course, what else do you think of my love ?"Ronda asked giggling.

They wish each other pleasantries and end the call. Jill tells me that everything is OK with Ronda. I exhale a bit.

John comes back into the house telling me that all three ladies are in the pool menage and both of Fred's nephews are there as well.

Now I'm confused. Who are they talking about ? Or are they even being truthful, maybe they are just trying to rattle my John Cage ? Either way, I put in another call to Special broker Fernandez. Again, it goes flop to voicemail.

My phone rings, it's Agent Longmire. I know she's here to pick up the letter. I check the gate camera and see her car. I poke the release to open the gate, she pulls in and I poke the necessary button to close up it right behind her. I wait for her to come to the front door.

"factor Longmire, nice to see you, please follow inside,"I say to her.

"Do you bear this letter ?"She asks.

"Yes, and I have another estimator issue. This time it's on my wife's figurer. We shut it off and am ready to founder you the severely cause tower to train with you. I'm not sure what we should be doing, we still live by the computer and we need to be capable to access code our system. Any trace ?"I ask the agent.

"Well, you'll get your laptop computer back tomorrow. We installed a computer programme that will reach you another stage of security. However, we also have installed a initiation sentry go. If you receive anything from the seed of that last electronic mail, our syllabus will move whatever was sent into a separate file and change it to our IT group,"she says to me. This idea makes me smile. I know that they could look at what my body of work is like, but I don't think that is what they are after. They probably have a listing of where the email was sent from and their platform will continually search for anything from them again.

Jill goes upstairs to the spot to work down her electronic computer tower to hired hand it off to Agent Longmire. While Jill is upstairs, I get the gasbag and carefully hand it to Longmire. She puts on a duet of rubber baseball glove and puts the gasbag in an evidence bag and stamp it up putting her initials on the front.

She asks about why John is wearing a firearm. I explain that well-nigh of my grouping have carry permission and since it seems as if we are under beleaguering, we are trying to protect ourselves. She doesn't say anything to my point.

I do ask her when she is loose for the encounter dinner."You mean you still want to go through with this even though you feel your family is in peril ?"She asks.

"Of course of study. I'm not going to hide out for the rest of my liveliness here in the sign of the zodiac. They might get me to change my routine for a day or two at the most, but that's all. Now, when are you uncommitted for dinner ?"I persist.

Longmire pulls out her personal mobile phone earpiece to take care at her calendar. She gives me several days that she thinks will work. I grab my telephone set and put these days in the notes section of my phone and gull it on the calendar. Looking at the daytime she gave me I pick one and ask her if she is OK with that day. She thinks about it for a here and now or two, then agrees to the day.

"Great, I'll send a car to pick you up and work you to dinner,"I tell her.

"Mr. Graham Greene, you don't need to send a car for me. I'm perfectly able to drive myself,"she tells me. However, I'm not backing down from my instauration dinner plan.

"Look, I own a limo company, just smile and say yes,"I say to her smiling myself.

"OK, Mr. Henry Graham Greene, you are pertinacious, aren't you ? Yes, sending a car to pick me up would be fine. However, I think you want to receive me in a limo, so I don't try to leave ahead of time,"she says to me smiling.

"Yeah, that's it. I don't want you trying to run away before the dinner party,"I laugh a little as I agree with her.

Jill comes down from the office carrying the tower. federal agent Longmire, still wearing the safe gloves takes the tug. I also mitt her a DVD of the conclusion 24 hours of our front gate. She puts the DVD in her sack. I ask Saint John the Apostle to carry the computer tower to her car for her. She tries to object, but I won't hear of it. John takes the tower from her and follows her to her car, where he put the tower on the floor of the back seat.

As she circles the courtyard to exit, I open the front gate for her. Once she is past the logic gate, I hit the push to close it again.

Jill turns and takes a bum at the dining elbow room table. I guess taking her computer pillar put her at a standstill.

"Honey, should we go out and buy a new computer for each of us, or can you take a night off ?"I ask her.

"I'll claim a nighttime off. BJ and I certainly could use it,"she says. Jill makes herself another plate of food from the remnant Outback meal. It was nice to see both Dakota and Diane decide to have a belittled plateful of the Cesar salad. All three of them refill their cup with ice water system. This is the first thing that has made me smiling tonight.

I guess seeing the three dame having some salad, I decided to join them. I encouraged anyone who was concern to have themselves some salad, as it is something that really doesn't keep very well. Steaks and chicken keep just fine as do baked potatoes and steamed broccoli.

As it gets into the evening, it seems a bit odd that my wife and BJ are out among the remainder of us. They both seem well-chosen and chipper to not be doing the oeuvre they have been slaving over the past few Nox. BJ is busy chatting with Danni. Jill is chatting with Dakota, Diane, and many of the madam. I still sit next to Allison. I want her to understand that I'm not wanting to get rid of her and judging by her legal action throughout dinner party, I think my message has sunk in.

Mom and Fred come back out for a couple of mo, as they heard agentive role Longmire leave and were interested in what the Feds had to say. I updated them and they seemed to experience like thing were OK at the Chateau. Fred looked around for one of Sammy's not bad dessert. Thankfully, he still had a couple of his courteous cakes in the big electric refrigerator in the big kitchen. He went there with John only steps behind him leave to ‘ help'Sammy. Of line, John the Evangelist took ascendency of the double deep brown patty to carry it back to the dining room. Sammy brought his strawberry pick vanilla cake.

When John came to the kitchen with the chocolate cake, several of the lady made their way over to him to get a cut of the bar. Saint John was the gentleman and just stepped aside letting the peeress have first base shot at the cake. Diane asked John to get her a slice of the strawberry cake. When he gave her a home plate with a slice on it, Diane took a bite and moaned as if she was having an orgasm. She truly enjoyed the gash that privy gave her.

After all the noblewoman who wanted a slicing of the chocolate cake got one, john cut himself a heavy slice and slid it onto a plate.

Just as I was about to finalise for a slice of the strawberry cake, Sammy appeared with a big container of homemade chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie was about the sizing of a crapulence coaster. I took 4 cookie and poured myself a looking glass of milk. Just as I was about to sit down, I saw that Jill was taking the hold out bite of her salad. I got up and got her a slice of the chocolate cake, knowing that she really likes cocoa cake. I also put three cookies on the plate. Since I had the Milk River still out of the fridge, I poured her a cup of Milk as well.

Having the slices of cake seemed to facilitate relieve the situation that had been building here at the Chateau. Diane sent John out to the pool house to put up them fade of hemangioma simplex bar, they declined but thanked him for the offering.

As Jill finished up eating her cake, she got up and took me by the hired man to go with her to our bedroom. I heard a couple of hoots and whistles as Jill shook her ass at everyone, much like Dakota does with me. We went into our bedroom and shut the doorway behind us. There we stayed and played for the rest period of the nighttime. We made passionate love for several hours and then again in the shower cleaning the sex off us. It was so nice to sense the arms and body of my darling wife.

sleeping together with my wife after a couple of hours of loving sex was delightful, of course, us taking a longsighted hot rain shower together didn't hurt affair either.
