Chapter 102: A human listening bug.
Jon’s heart fluttered and he kicked all groveling aside as he motioned at her to calm down. He was pondering on what she said. He had read the apocalypse guidelines and collected a lot of books on apocalypses: natural disasters or zombie or alien invasion.
He had told Trevor to concentrate on the ones that involved awakenings. He had been reading them slowly and even now he was in halfway through another novel. So, he knew a thing or two about superhumans.
It seemed like fate had decided to give him a gift that was extraordinary: a wife with super hearing!!! Not only could she hear everything that was close but her ears were so extraordinary that her abilities stretched beyond the walls of their base and reached into Fortress Four!!
This was the spy he had been craving for. She was a gift of untapped potential that could be used in many ways, whether it was in the apocalypse or after.
"Honey, can you hear what Hades is up to?" he asked her with eager eyes.
The eagerness died when he was blasted with a glare that nearly choked him.
"That is what you want to know!" Tracy shouted at him. "Not one question about Bob but instead you want to know about Hades freaking Quinn! Are you in love with him or something? I am tired of your obsession with him. All I hear is my Bob crying and I want him back Jon. Bring my baby back" She shouted at him.
Jon reared back because she picked up a table knife. "Another time then." He said.
He was not going to give up on getting her to be his human bug. Who needed real tapping devices when she was around? He just needed to find a way to get Bob back. But how?
Hades was going to hold on to the damn cat just because he could.
