Chapter Three
As she walked through the gray hallways, Nikita prepared what she was going to say to Michael when he asked her why she’d resorted to drugging him. Her plans would all be for naught if he didn’t understand and accept her actions.
As he had been a level five operative, Michael’s old quarters were equipped with a security system, allowing a modicum of privacy. Only tier one operatives had the necessary clearance to override the security. However, rather than entering her all-access code, Nikita rang the modified doorbell. While she waited for his response, she wondered what she would do if Michael ignored her arrival.
When he heard his doorbell buzz, Michael got up from the sofa and went to the door. Even though he knew who it was he checked the security monitor on the wall anyway. Slightly taken aback that she had actually ‘knocked’ rather than just let herself in, he stood momentarily debating whether or not to invite Nikita in.
If he ignored her, would Nikita assume he was still sleeping off the drugs she had given him? Michael doubted it, for he was sure Nikita adjusted the dosage to his unusually high tolerance and calculated exactly when he’d awaken.
No, he was sure Nikita would understand exactly what he was doing if he didn’t at least acknowledge her presence. The question is, what would she do about it? Come back later or come in and show him who was in charge now.
