SYNDICATE - Season 1 - Episode 34

☆☆

“Perfect, the car will be there in ten minutes.”

Carol heard a click on the other end of the line. This is why she never dealt with men. They were so confusing and ambiguous.

She had begun to re-think her interview, worried that she screwed something up. They had taken a few days to call. Something about Kieran made her nervous. And she was usually so sure of herself too. Carol wasn’t expecting him to be handicapped, and by the looks of it, his handicap was permanent. But she thought she had hid her surprise well, until the delay in correspondence had her second-guessing her reaction.

She went into her bedroom to change her clothes into an outfit that was more bad-a-s. She wanted to fit in with the others. As Carol put on her clothes, she noticed her hands shaking. It was from the adrenaline. Her heart rate was also abnormally fast, and she felt herself growing more excited.

And the woman drank this up like water.

She thrived on this s--t. Sheneededthis. Even her kickboxing practice was getting more intense from the effects of her career change. This is how Carol saw her life in ten years. She had already made a promise to be completely loyal to Kieran O’Meara if she was employed by him.

When the car arrived, Carol was ready to pee herself. She jumped in the car and arrived at the mansion before another thought could fully pass through her head. Her hands began to sweat.

Will met her outside the front of the house. She noticed he was no longer wearing a sling, but his wrist was still wrapped, and the bruises on his face were very noticeable, obviously still healing. However, she would still consider him to be handsome- if she were into men.

“Carol,” Will greeted her, shaking her hand.

“Hello Will,” she responded. He led her into the house.

“We ran a personal check on you, I hope you don’t mind. But everything checks out to our liking.”

“Good. I don’t mind,” Carol said. Her heart was soaring.

“I also hope you don’t mind, but, we’ll have to start your work right away… as in, right now.”

“I don’t mind at all!” Carol almost pinched herself. This had to be a dream. A lucid, beautiful dream.

“Good.” Will nodded at her. “I don’t have the time to let you in on all the details of this job right now. You’re going to have to trust us. I need your force, but I’ll be asking the questions.”
“Questions?”

“We have to question someone we think has information. Like I said, I can’t fill in details right now. But you don’t have to speak. You just have to come with me and use force if necessary. This witness is a nice woman, so don’t do anything unless I command you to.”

“Yes, sir,” Carol said, her excitement growing.

“Okay, let’s get going,” Will said.
“Where?”

“We have a place near here we use to interrogate people. When you prove loyal, you will know the location, but as for now, we have to blindfold you. Sorry,” Will said. Carol nodded. She was getting very eager to prove herself to him.

They went for a short ride. When Carol got out, Will took off the blindfold. Murphy had gone with them. They were standing in front of a small house in the woods. Actually, it was more like a shack, Carol concluded.
