"Mr. Broots have you gotten any information out of the puzzle that Jarod
sent us this time?" Miss. Parker asked picking up the chocolate boot. It
had been three weeks since she had stormed out of Jarod's lair. He had
demanded that she stay away from the center and for her to let him take
care of everything. They had argued until she finally just stormed out of
the house. She hadn't heard from him until she received a chocolate boot in
the mail yesterday.
"N…no ma'am I am still working on it."
"Well will you hurry up already? I am getting sick and tired of waiting for you to take your time on stuff. If you do not have the answer in thirty minutes then I will go to my father and have you removed. " Parker turned around and stormed into her office.
Sydney walked into his office when the phone rang.
"Sydney here"
"Sydney, its Jarod."
"It's about time. I was starting to worry about you. Broots has the information that you requested. He is going to meet you at the specified coordinates. Miss. Parker has been constantly on his back about finding you. She is more obsessed than before,"
"I will leave a trail for her to follow. How has she been?"
"I don't know," Sydney stood up and looked out his window, "She is not talking to anyone except to ask if we have found you. There is one thing that I am worried about. She has been meeting with Raines. I don't know what the meetings are about but when she comes out she looks horrible."
"Is it possible that they are running tests on her Sydney?"
"I don't know Jarod. I don't know. Whatever it is it must be pretty big. She has a meeting in 1 hr." He heard Jarod hang up the phone before he did the same. He was really worried about Miss. Parker.

Miss Parker walked into her bedroom and feeling someone behind her she pulled her gun out and turned around.
"Jarod! What are you doing here?" Parker said pulling the hammer of her gun back.
"Don't you ever get tired of putting that gun in my face Miss. Parker?" Jarod asked watching as Miss. Parker lowered the gun and set it on the table. He smirked as he noticed that she made sure that it was close to her.
"What do you want, Jarod?" Miss Parker asked watching him closely.
"A couple days after you left the lab called me to tell me that they had accidentally switched your test results with another. The test finding the anomaly was accurate but the pregnancy test was not. You are not pregnant Parker." Jarod said watching the surprise and relief fly across her face.
"Are you sure? I thought that you did the test yourself." Parker said as she collapsed into a chair.
"I didn't think that you would have liked that very much so I sent the blood to a friend of mine. When they called me and told me about the mix up I ran the tests myself to make sure."
"Where did you get my blood from for you to recheck."
Jarod smirked at that question. "I can't tell you all my secrets now can I?" Jarod crouched down in front of her and took her hands into his own. "Sydney tells me that you have been spending a lot of time with Raines lately. What's going on?"
Parker looked into his dark eyes. She remembered when she was a teenager she could get lost just starring into his eyes. They were filled with so much warmth and compassion that she had to look away. No one had every made her feel so safe and loved since her mother's death.
"Parker" Jarod said looking at the fleeting emotions running through her eyes.
" Mr. Raines went to the triumvirate and told them that I was taking to long in finding you. He believed that the best course of action to take would be to train my pretender gene." Parker looked into Jarod's eyes once more, "They agreed."
"N…no ma'am I am still working on it."
