Future Dynasty

Lecture Eight

"It's a secret." Shrugging I stretched out my arms high above my head showing of my freedom.

Looking over at the glass window I gave a wave in its direction and then at the camera. There was no doubt there was more than just Daniella watching me right now.

They wanted something and I didn't know what it was.

My attention then turned to Daniella again.

"Speaking of secrets I know you're bound to have some." Leaning forward I dropped my voice low so that the cameras couldn't over hear. "After all if you know Nick and judging from how he greeted you, you know him well. Which tells me you have secrets of your own."

"I have no secrets."

Scoffing I leaned back in my chair. "Everyone has secrets no matter what they say."

Tilting my head I looked at her carefully and she too stared me down. I don't know what their game plan was if sending her in here or what information they were looking for but there was definitely something about Daniella that stood out to me.

Leaning forward again I spoke once again.

"Do you know my brother?"

Her whole body froze and I couldn't help but let the smirk cross my face. She definitely knew my older brother Reagan.

"Levi? Of course I know him to. There's a whole file on your family."

Letting out a laugh I knew she was trying to twist the conversation back to the way she wanted it to go. "I wasn't talking about my twin brother. I was talking about my infamous older brother Reagan. I'm sure you know all about him too." Clicking my tongue with a sly grin I then continued on. "Maybe more than you would want to admit."

She didn't make eye contact with me as she flipped through the folder in front of her. She tried to look interested on what ever was in it but her eyes skimmed the page too quick for her actually to be registering anything on it.

"What where you doing at the port?"

Daniella tried going back to the question that started this all off and I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

"Sight seeing."

My voice was blank as I spoke and I kept my face neutral. There was no point in telling them the truth and it wouldn't benefit me in anyway in doing so.

The door to the room opened and a man walked in with another pair of handcuffs in his hands. Clearly they didn't want me running around here freely seeing as how easily they were willing to trap me back in them.

"Really?" Nodding to towards the cuffs I gave Daniella an annoyed look. "What makes you think I can't get of them again?"

Daniella said nothing as the man moved closer to me. He seemed unsure as he looked towards the one way glass but didn't stop his movement. My eyes never left Daniella's as I felt the man grab my left wrist.

A challenge raised in me as she stared me down.

Time seemed to slow down and before he was able to click the cuffs into place I grabbed his wrist with my right hand. Not looking away from Daniella I sent her a sweet smile before making my move.

Quickly standing up from my seat in a flash I hit the man in the throat making him choke. Daniella stood up from her seat but she wasn't quick enough as the man tried to catch his breath. Reaching out I grabbed the cuffs from the mans hand putting one side of them on his own wrist attaching them to the leg of the table.

The tables were bolted to the floor so stepping away I grinned as I looked at my handy work. The man had a mixture of shock and disbelief running through his face as he tried to catch his breath.
