Chapter 28: Disoriented

Both of them were staring at each other. It was a negotiation between a master and his maid.

Lucia had a determined expression and her glare spoke as if she would kill anyone if her bargains were downplayed or rejected. Teaching Derrick was undemanding to her and she could implement her mentoring without any intricate preparation and efforts.

It was an out of the blue request, which had hit Lucia unexpectedly and it wasn't like she was completely against the idea. She could even do it for free without any conditions or demands but her odd masquerade as the bold psycho girl towards people didn't allow it.

For some strange reason she felt comfortable being with Derrick although the contract did have some effects but the strange feelings had already been born since the fight with him which was before the contact came into effect. Even though she was in the side watching her clone fight with Derrick who was oblivious to the situation and If she had involved herself in the fight she might have been able to take down Derrick and might have even arrested Derrick much more earlier but she chose not to.

Lucia found a similarity between Derrick and her, the scene of Derrick recking havoc had reignited some of her fighting spirits. She also wanted to loose control of herself and even destroy the human HQ of lifeguards due to her past experience. Even though she wanted to act similar to Derrick in the past she didn't have anyone backing her. So, he had to look out for herself by not being reckless.

She was an orphan now but her parents were alive that is until she joined the black squad. Her parents worked as scientists at the Lifeguard headquarters and unfortunately for them, they were forced to do inhuman experiments even though they were unwilling to comply. Lucia was completely unaware of the circumstance her parents were facing. She had only managed to join the combat department of the lifeguards at 15 years of age and her parents wasn't aware of her plan too. In fact, she wanted to surprise them only when she had managed to become a full fledged lifeguard which they could be proud of. Unfortunately, her plans to surprise them fell into ruins when she met them at the lab. After the brutal training she went through to become a life guard she was brought to the lab for the check up she was informed of but contrary to her expectations she was presented as a lab rat to her parents.

People didn't have much choice in their lives and to have one or a few an individual needed the necessary power to create them and Lucia's parents were mere scientists with no significant power at their disposal. Furthermore, their circumstances had made it hard for them to voice their opinions. With no better solutions for both the parents and Lucia, the experiment was carried out without a hitch. But to Lucia and her parents it was an extremely cruel experience. Lucia felt a little relief with the thought that the experiment was the end to her emotional and mental torture but the rumours she heard the next day had left her irreparably traumatised and devastated. Her parents were found to have committed suicide at the lab which to Lucia seemed unbelievable and not until she saw their body cremated.

Lucia was a girl too and 'a beauty' would still fit her description. From the moment she heard her parents had died her personality turned psychotic and she was excessively damaged that she couldn't reveal any of her genuine charm she was born with. It was as if she was left to live with only her negative part of her emotions which consequently effected her ability to show expressions that people would call normal or rather human while her positive emotions had somehow gradually deteriorated to nonexistence. She had long forgotten how to make expressions that seemed elegant or noble, and in fact her normal too had long become skewed and disoriented due to her experience after becoming a black squad.

Black squad was one of those squads that required secrecy as their primary principle and similarly Lucia as a captain in the black squad wasn't allowed to reveal any of the things she witnessed and experienced inside the HQ unless she wanted to be imprisoned or executed. She had become indifferent during her time spent in black squad and even experienced manics at the strangest situations but these experiences were slowly becoming a thing of the past the moment Lucia finally met Derrick. It was if being with Derrick and watching him was constantly healing her damaged past.

And as a girl her instincts had confirmed that Derrick was someone reliable and she wanted to create a space where she could call it home and even relax where she didn't have to be on alert everyday. She wanted protection and Derrick was the first she felt comfortable to stay with. She was resolved to devote her both her mind and body to her master Derrick but this didn't meant she wanted to act servile and tame.

"I am not familiar with what that scary guy is trying to accomplish but I can still request him to provide a bath and a new set of clothes the next time he approaches me." Derrick after some thought had to agree with Lucias demand for a bath and a set of clothes in exchange for the training she would provide. It was more than a fair deal for Derrick.

The next moment left Derrick speechless, a part of the wall nearest to them of the training hall unexpectedly slid open revealing a bathroom and a small clothe-filled closet.

Derrick for a moment wanted to kill Edmund as he stood quietly staring at Lucia.

"Ahem, Lucia ....the training?" Derricks voice was trembling as he was scared Lucia would not choose to train her.

Lucia ignored Derrick while slowly unzipping her black jumpsuit. The zip parted at the middle of her chest until it reached her navel area revealing the round bosoms bulging out of her chests. And just as expected by Derrick her curves was goddess like her upper clothing was now detached from her torso hanging down her back, she continued to strip what was left covering her luscious body until she was only left with a single blood red sexy panties. Her bottoms were pillowy and jiggled with each step she took while her well proportioned thighs and calf added to her already charmingly busty body.

She gracefully waltzed towards the bathroom naked unwary of Derricks sly leer at her body.

"A bath before the training would be a good star wouldn't you agree Derrick."

Her seductive voice had made his sausages grilled with his meat juices running and it made him even more excited when she didn't reject training him. And without any hesitation Derrick stripped himself in an instant as he pounced toward Lucia inside the bathroom.
