Advertisement
After exiting the clinic, it's now time for Jessy to sneak into the city and spy on Jagger. Jessy has six jackets to choose from in different colors lined up in her cabinet, she picked up the purple one and wore it over her blouse. She grabbed her sling bag and transformed herself into her invisible form. Then she began the process of teleporting into the city.
A few minutes later.
She landed in her favorite landing area in the city, in the dark alley.
From there she walked towards the Budget Wise Motel still in her invisible form.
After a few minutes of walking, she finally arrived at her destination. She's now standing in front of the hotel. She hovered in the air and entered the motel, she landed on the second floor heading straight towards Jagger's room.
Inside Jagger's rented room.
Her eyes widened upon seeing a naked woman lying in the bed, her eyes closed.
Jessy's forehead creased in puzzlement.
Huh? Who is she? Where is Jagger?
She heard water splashing inside the bathroom. Jagger must be inside the shower. She wants to enter the bathroom but changed her mind at the last minute. She will just wait for the person to get out of the bathroom.
While waiting...she roamed her eyes inside the room.
Then she noticed that Jagger's scent was nonexistent in the room. A few minutes later her suspicion was confirmed when the person finally exited the bathroom.
He is not Jagger!
Dammit, where is he!?
She got to find him as soon as possible.
She exited the room through the window and hovered in the air. She will just zoom here and there and hopefully, she can pick up his human scent.
She was hoping that he didn't go too far!
For now, she will just focus her search in the entire city.
In the next hour, she hovered to the north side, then to the west, to the east and then last to the southern part of the city where tall buildings were sprouting like mushrooms after staying above on one of the rooftops of the building she finally smelled his scent coming strong from the building itself.
The high rise building is a twenty five-story residential condominium complex.
She began descending and starts searching for Jagger's whereabouts in all the floor levels.
Jessy finally landed on the 5th floor, this is the floor where his scent was getting more noticeable. She noticed that there are six condo units on every level. She entered the condo unit #28~where his scent is getting too strong.
When she went inside the condo, she landed in the living room. It's empty, no one is around.

She checked the first room on her left side, it's empty as well, she made an exit and went to the room on the right side.
When she went inside...she was greeted with a steamy scene, a heavy makeout session between a man and a woman. She saw Jagger and a woman in a tight embrace, hands petting each other, they were currently engaged in heated foreplay.
Jessy took a tentative step and step out from the room allowing Jagger privacy with his woman. She stood in the middle of the living room thinking on what to do next. So, he was already entering into a relationship with the opposite sex? Is this a good thing? Well, as long he won't hurt the woman and other people using his power then she wished him a good life. It's nice that he was finally able to get over his infatuation on her. He deserved a woman that will love him unconditionally.
She will just wait for him to finish his activity or maybe she will just come back another day. She was about to leave the place when the door to the room suddenly opened.
Jagger exited the room wearing a shirt and jeans. "You can talk to me now," he said to the location where Jessy was standing.
Her mouth twitched in amusement and made herself visible. "Are you done with her?" she asked.
Jagger grinned and shook his head. "I freeze her first. That woman is nothing special. You are much more important to me," he said, meaningfully.
Jessy smiled a bit. "You can go back inside and continue romping with her, I will go now," she said.
"Wait...it's seldom that you visited me here. I kind of getting lonely here in the city. I'm just trying to have some fun. I hope you understand me, Jess," he explained the presence of the woman in the room.
"No need to explain to me, Jagger. It's your life, you are entitled to enjoy your life. Just don't hurt and abuse anyone, that's all I am asking from you," she reminded him.
"Of course, I will stay true to my promise to you," he said in a serious tone.
"Who is that woman inside the room?"
"Ah, just a rich girl I recently meet in the casino," he answered.
Jessy's brows drew together. "Huh? Casino? Why did you mention a casino?" she asked.
Jagger sat down on the sofa. " I decided to try my luck in the casino. I discovered that I can manipulate all the games there using my power," he said smugly.

Jessy was thinking for a moment. "If the casino will notice that you keep winning they will ban you from entering their premises," she informed him.
Jagger smirked. "Nah, they won't."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because I play in the casino only once a month. I go there to win big and then disappear. I conducted some investigation myself, I found out that there are more than ten casinos in the city not to mention the other casino located in other cities. I can travel around the country, or to other gambling establishments abroad and play casino there. This kind of activity doesn't require me to wash plates and carry fish basin to earn money. I can live like a wealthy man just doing gambling in and out in every casino that I visited," he said with pride and a cunning smile on his face. "Don't worry, I won't abuse my power. I won't bankrupt those casinos if that is worrying you," he added.
Jessy sighed. "Okay, as long you won't do an extreme thing, then I will be fine with it," she commented.
"Don't worry, Jess. After I save lots of money I will start a legit business so that I can earn clean money and employed other people to work on my business legally," he said wanting to please her.
Jessy's face brightened, his last statement made her smile.
During this moment, Jessy's smile melted Jagger's heart. For him, she will always have a special place in his heart, she is the first woman he truly loves. "I love you, Jess," he said softly.
Jessy looked at him in the eyes. "I know," she responded nonchalantly.
"Don't worry I won't turn into a bad person. I'd rather die than turn into a monster," he said sincerely.
"Good to know that. Just do the things that can make me proud of you and not make me regret giving you a second chance. That's enough to satisfy me," she said. "By the way, who's condo unit is this?"
"That woman you saw in the room with me, her name is Jennifer, she is the owner of this condo," he replied.
"So, where is your place now? Are you still renting in that motel?" she inquired.
Jagger shook his head. "No. I already rented a much decent place which is a bachelor's pad. It's a bit pricey but I like the whole place and it's quiet and clean," he responded.
She looked at him, surprised. "Really-? How did you even manage to rent a place that requires ID and other important documents for identification purposes?"
Jagger grinned. "I bribed some people to make me a decent ID and other important supplemental identification documents. Using the power of money and finding the right people to bribe anything can be accomplished and produced," he bragged.
"Okay, fine. Good for you," she was impressed with his resourcefulness.
Jagger went to her side in a flash and held her arm. "Come with me. I will bring you to my permanent abode so that next time, you will know where to find me," he said.
A few seconds later. They landed inside a nice living room. For a few minutes, Jagger and Jessy toured inside the bachelor's pad.
"Nice place!" she admired his new home. It's comfy and spacious enough for a single person.
"You want a drink?" he offered.
"No thanks, I'm leaving now," she refused his offer politely.
"If you want to visit me and I'm not in my pad, you can call or send me a message using this..." he picked up the box of a newly purchased mobile phone from the center table and handed it to Jessy. "Please accept this phone as my gift for you, it will be easier if we start communicating from now on. I already phone book my number on this phone so that you can call and text me anytime," he elaborated.
Jessy accepted the phone and bid him goodbye. "Bye, Jagger. You take care of yourself and be a good boy always," she repeated.
Jagger nodded. "See you soon, Jess," he smiled. "Please give my regards to my brother and his family," he said with a deep longing leaping from his eyes.
"I will," Jessy responded and began the process of teleporting back into the Facility.
A minute later, she disappeared from his sight.
Jagger sighed and teleported back to Jennifer's condo unit intending to unfreeze her. After unfreezing her, he returned to his bachelor's pad and sleep. He no longer had the desire to continue having a steamy night with Jennifer after spending a few moments with the woman he truly loves. His libido evaporated into thin air.
Jessy ruined his fun tonight but it's okay, he would rather spend a few minutes of bittersweet moments talking to Jessy than having a good time with another woman.
