Boys,
the women thought
I was joking.
Anyway,
the messages
are still coming in.
I need to take down
my email address,
or I’m done for.
Either that,
or they’ll flag me
as suspicious
and block me.
But here’s
what I’m thinking.
I’ll start using this
to scare you.
Why not?
The moment one of you
stops listening to me,
I’ll send the girls
one of the Alphas’ numbers.
Just so you can sleep
even more peacefully:
the boys are working through
everything connected
with sex.
Uh-huh.
Yes.
All these hot men
are incredibly good
at sex.
Uh-huh.
And that is
on top of
their mission,
their money,
their resources,
and their bodies.
It would be a shame
to let a man like that
slip away.
Boys,
I really did
everything I could.
I tried.
Boys,
I can see
what is happening.
This is not funny.
You cannot behave
like this.
I do not care
what kind of childhood
you had
if you think
it excuses
this behavior.
And you will
keep quiet.
That is how things
work here.
I say it.
You do it.
If you do not like it,
you know
where the door is.
Colin
and the Vatican
will take charge
of the Blacklist
for now.
They need
to keep them
under tight control
while I’m busy.
Boys.
Listen.
I understand
that you do not like this.
You’ve got balls.
I understand.
But you need
to accept
that sometimes strength
is not the same thing
as suppression.
Until your psyche
stabilizes,
I’ll have to keep you
pinned face-down.
“They’re used to it.”
Oops.
Sorry, boys.
But...
that really is funny.
Anyway,
this is how
it has to be
for now.
All right.
Bear with it
a little longer.
“Yeah,
we’re going
to put you through it here,
then kiss you afterward.”
Boys,
I’m serious.
Please.
This is necessary.
Once we level out,
you’ll join
the general flow.
I cannot merge you
into the field yet.
The others already carry
plenty of darkness
of their own.
And if your darkness
joins theirs too,
I’ll have to stay awake
to carry everyone.
That is not good.
I admit it,
you impossible man:
you do have
the power
to protect me
and carry the field
on your shoulders.
Do not take offense.
The men
on the Blacklist
are not weak-willed.
I left their darkness
intact.
Knowing
your particular tastes...
do not touch
the boys.
You absolute perverts.
What a nightmare.
