Maybe that made the denizens of the bar his downtrodden but loyal and admiring subjects? Aya rolled her eyes and glanced over to Dex sitting alongside her in the booth. Dex just snorted in disgust and tossed back another shot of whisky. They returned to voraciously devouring each other\u2019s tongues. Hands disappeared under the greasy table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see that we\u2019re being graced with the presence of Mr. Handsome tonight,\u201d said Chin, absentmindedly coiling and uncoiling her steel mesh snake-whip around her gloved hand. Deep red nails from cut-off leatherclad fingers flashed in the smoke-filled half-darkness. The exiled Shaolin shifu, a Kung Fu master, shifted in bored restlessness. Her black titanium-weave chongsam fell away to show a glimpse of pale white legs scarred with angry red sword marks and Tong tattoos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe sure is pretty, though. I didn\u2019t figure he\u2019d look so sweet off-line,\u201d said Shell, punctuating the comment with a low wolf whistle at the end, then flicking back her long platinum-bleached tresses to get a better look.<\/p>\n<p>Kenji, the handsome prince in question, took a seat at the bar and chatted up the bartender, flashing his perfect smile. He seemed unaccompanied by the usual cronies, bodyguards or media crew, an unusual night out for this net darling of the moment. Sightings of what he wore, drank, ate, did, fucked, shot up, smoked, and uttered fed shows, blogs and games. The devout techno elite and fandom hackers could always take a ride on his neural net adventure hook up, whether realtime or delayed download. Broadcast depended on the fickle prince\u2019s mood and the power of his sponsors\u2019 almighty yen.<\/p>\n<p>The black rubber and Kevlar body suit clung to his lean frame, accentuating the finely crafted and managed body. A long lion\u2019s mane of multi-colored dreads, sporting wires and jacks of all sorts, trailed down his back, hiding the jack-ports along the base of his skull and upper spine. He turned his smooth-skinned, caramel-colored face to scan the seedy bar. His beauty was incongruous with his bad-boy, arrogant bastard reputation. Japanese eyes and African lips smiled perfectly on a delicately graceful face, vaguely reminiscent of the gods of Syria or Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>The five foxes leaned back in their booth and watched the prince prowl in their neck of the \u2019hood.<\/p>\n<p>Her cold blue eye obliterated by the slow-rising white smoke of her Cuban cigar, Lady Blue piped in between smooth puffs \u201cYeah, Shell, he sure is your type. You want him tonight?\u201d Lady Blue, the buxom blueblood with one blue eye, was the raunch-talking renegade daughter to one of the richest and most powerful businessman in Japan. She and her old man never much got along. He didn\u2019t much appreciate walking into his zaibatsu boardroom with biz partners for a big meeting to find the place littered with the bodies and booze from one of her massive orgies. Then there was the time that he tried to keep her from driving anywhere, so she blew up his car with a load of plastique.<\/p>\n<p>Shell\u2019s black eyes narrowed into wicked little slits. \u201cSure, Lady Blue, how\u2019s about that one for tonight\u2019s \u2018featured guest?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kenji had moved down to a table and leaned over a pretty little junkie who was obviously a-twitter with the meaningless attention. He let her fondle his built-up pecs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo you think he\u2019s going live tonight, data bagging or just solo and slummin\u2019?\u201d asked Aya. \u201cI don\u2019t mind having him as our little \u2018guest du jour\u2019 but I have no desire for any of us to get logged onto his shows and getting our IDs blown around the net.\u201d Aya was always careful about info security of her sister Foxes.<\/p>\n<p>Shell slipped her visorcam on and clicked away in mid-air with chip-imbedded black-lacquered nails. \u201cAya, he\u2019s not Live now. He may be data-bagging for later air time, but you know, babe, I can jam him as quick as you can cut throat.\u201d Officially Shell was a dead woman. After so many tech convictions and consequent citizenship freezes, Shell simply let her self die of a well-documented suicide on the net and disappeared into ShinEdo. It made it easier for her to do what she did best. Hack for fun and profit. She was the tightest security and best access to info that the Foxes could ever imagine. In turn, the other Foxes took care of her, because she wasn\u2019t always so good at making her way around actual people in a non-virtual city. People didn\u2019t respond like programs and weren\u2019t so easily hacked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOK, it\u2019s done,\u201d said Shell, clicking out of her visorcam. \u201cI\u2019ve located his central unit. He\u2019s now fully rebroadcasting his trollopping day in his crib from a couple weeks back. I\u2019ve also located his wheels, parked down the street. The security, recorders and GPS there are scrambled, too. So they\u2019re reading him somewhere outside Nagoya.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dex grinned and waved down the half-metallized gendermorph waitron and ordered a round of drinks for her gang-mates. Dirty glasses sloshed onto the table with murky brown liquids in them, and they each raised their glasses in their ritual toast before a Hunt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo a fine piece of ass!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo blood!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo our pleasures!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo the Hunt!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo my sister Foxes!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bored with toying with the femme junkie, Kenji glanced toward the burst of hearty female laughter. Unfortunately for him, all he could see was the high back of the old vinyl-covered booth.<\/p>\n<p>Dex checked for her piece in the belly belt holster, gave Aya a quick mauling and slipped out of the booth and disappeared though the back door, unseen by Kenji. Sauntering past the huddled forms of homeless dregs, she soon found Kenji\u2019s wheels parked between a juice joint and an illegal organ bank fronting as a fish shop. The boy had taste for serious retro Euro trash. A gleaming black, fully armored Benz McLaren hid in this ghetto as inconspicuously as a nun in a whorehouse. Dex didn\u2019t bother to scan the streets for witnesses nor the wheels for offensive security. Shell had already turned the alarms off and Dex trusted Shell\u2019s skills for that. Dex didn\u2019t give a damn about witnesses anyway. This was their street and no one would mind her leaving the car accessible for the scavengers and thieves.<\/p>\n<p>The silencer barely muffled Dex\u2019s hand cannon as she pumped round after round of hollow points loaded with fire-gel into the armor-plated tires. Even battle-tech wheels eventually collapsed against a close range assault with a predatory purpose. Dex turned on her heel and coolly strolled away, whistling a cheesy pop tune.<\/p>\n<p>Aya and Chin stuck around the bar and started to give Kenji the mating eyes, sending him cheap drinks and holding his interest just a bit longer. Dex, done with her deed, cruised back into the bar, taking a seat alone in the far corner. At that cue Shell and Lady Blue strolled out of the bar, arm in arm like they didn\u2019t even know the other femmes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSee you later, hot stuff!\u201d Aya, much to Kenji\u2019s unaccustomed disappointment, blew him a kiss, grabbed her helmet and walked out. Chin shrugged, winked at him and followed Aya out the door. He didn\u2019t hear them laughing just outside the door.<\/p>\n<p>Kenji downed the Kirin, dusted off his ego and paid up at the bar. When he turned the corner toward his car, he gasped and screamed like a pimp-slapped bitch. He wasn\u2019t prepared to find his armored baby cannibalized and made into a hollowed-out bonfire of molten rubber and sparking metal, the gull wings splayed out like a slaughtered bird. He tried to call his sponsors and bodyguards but none of his comm devices worked. He couldn\u2019t even bring up his eye cam to record the smoking mess. It pissed him off even more that he was losing the media op of his own juicy crime scene.<\/p>\n<p>Loud rumbling filled the air and two bikes broke through the wall of black smoke, blinding him with their headlights. He froze for a moment, remembering that he was out of his element, in gang territory. From a crackling speaker of the red Gixxer 1500cc he heard a femme with a heavy Hong Kong accent: \u201cHey UpTown, got your self some trouble, huh?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The other rider dismounted her Honda CBR, took off the mirror-visored helmet and shook out her waist-length black hair. Aya smiled sweetly as only a pampered yakuza princess could. \u201cHey, you\u2019re the one from the bar. Looks like you could use a lift. Hop on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Relieved, Kenji hopped on the back of Aya\u2019s steed. Not so secretly he hoped that they might make an adventurous detour to wrap up their earlier cruising and flirting.<\/p>\n<p>He had no idea of the adventure awaiting him\u2026<\/p>\n<p><em>To read the rest, download the ebook today!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[wp_eStore_fancy2 id=58]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ebook $5.99 ISBN 9781613900390 40,410 words [wp_eStore_add_to_cart id=58] The ebook edition is also available at: Barnes &amp; Noble, Smashwords, Kobo, Amazon &amp; AllRomanceEbooks.
