BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM

At the center of the room, a massive king-sized bed with a plush, comfortable mattress and silky soft linens beckoned for rest and relaxation. The bed was flanked by elegant nightstands adorned with crystal lamps that cast a warm glow, creating a serene atmosphere.

Achim's massive room also featured a spacious private bathroom that was a sanctuary of indulgence. It was adorned with marble tiles, a deep soaking tub, a walk-in shower with multiple jets, and a large vanity with his and hers sinks. The bathroom was stocked with premium toiletries and plush towels, providing a spa-like experience in the comfort of his own space.

Achim and his girlfriend sat on a couch, cuddling up under a cozy blanket. They had been watching a movie, but now the credits were rolling, and the room was quiet. Achim's girlfriend leaned in and placed a soft kiss on his lips.

The boy's heart skipped a beat as he felt her lips against his. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer, deepening the kiss. He felt a surge of emotion as he savored the taste of her lips and the warmth of her body pressing against his.

His girlfriend moaned softly as their lips parted, resting her head against his chest.

"Take off your clothes," the girl said.

Achim stroked her hair and breathed in the scent of her perfume, feeling a sense of peace and contentment wash over him. He had been stressed lately, with all the pressure from the military school, the danger of being involved in the criminal underworld, and Nathaniel's death, but being with his girlfriend made all those worries fade away.

For her part, Achim's girlfriend felt entirely at ease in his arms. She felt safe and protected, and her heart swelled with affection for him. She knew that he had a dangerous life, but at this moment, it was just the two of them, wrapped up in their own private world.

Erik observed the scene with embarrassment as Achim's girlfriend was very pretty. She had long, curly blonde hair that fell in loose waves down her back and bright blue eyes that sparkled with mischief. Her skin was fair and had a healthy, sun-kissed glow. If that wasn't enough, the girl also had a slender yet curvy figure, with a graceful neck and shapely legs. Her lips were full and rosy, often adorned with a touch of glossy lip color that added to her magnetic charm.

Her body was toned and fit, with gentle curves accentuating her feminine form. She moved with grace and confidence, every gesture exuding sensuality and allure. Her playful demeanor and confident attitude added to her irresistible appeal.

As they sat there, holding each other close, the only sounds in the room were their quiet breathing and the occasional blanket rustling. Achim's mind was free from worries as he basked in the love and affection of his girlfriend, and he felt truly alive.

The young man removed his clothes, and the girl did the same, exposing her breast. Achim couldn't wait to have a taste of her. As a result, they began making love; Achim grabbed her firmly, and the girl surrendered to the pleasures of the flesh.

She softly moaned each time Achim thrust, and sweat began pouring from both of them.

In the meantime, Erik was still connected to Achim's house's security system and was watching the scene. Frankly, he was stunned, doing all of that knowing there were cameras around, but he guessed that some people didn't really care about being seen. Maybe they got even more turned on at the thought of being seen.

He remained watching, hoping to learn some information that could help him enact his plan after this arousing scene ended, but the truth was that he was slightly aroused.

<Damn…> Erik thought, and with the embarrassment of an inexperienced fifteen-year-old, he kept watching until Achim and the girl were done.

The two lovers were gasping and moaning, but soon after Achim pulled himself out of her, the two sat on the couch. As Erik saw this, he couldn't help but think about Amber, which was surprisingly weird. Was that because she confessed? Did that change the view he had of her?

"Did you like it?" Achim asked.

"Yes, it was amazing, honey," she said, sliding her finger on his chest.

"But honestly, I was a little distracted because I'm worried about you. Since the past week, you seem… very… nervous…" the girl said.

Achim lay on the couch, and his girlfriend snuggled up beside him. They were both naked, their bodies still warm from their recent activities. Despite the pleasure he had just experienced, Achim's mind was elsewhere. He couldn't stop thinking about Nathaniel's death and how it had affected the Mambas.

"Is everything ok, honey?" his girlfriend asked, seeing his blank expression and running her fingers through his hair.

Achim let out a sigh. "Yeah, sorry. It's just that Nathaniel's death has weighed on my mind, and it has caused a lot of problems for us."

"What do you mean?" she asked, looking at him.

"Well, he was the son of the leader of the Mambas. His death messed up his father's head, and this is creating a lot of tension and infighting, and just a week passed since the incident."

"I'm sorry, babe," she said, placing a hand on his chest. "I know it is not easy for you."

Achim closed his eyes, remembering his last conversation with Nathaniel. He knew what led to his death; Nathaniel never stated who he wanted to kill, he only asked for some people to help him in the ordeal and told him that something happened with someone, but he had been vague about it. However, he knew it must have been someone from the Red Palace, and if he had managed to kill Nathaniel, he could easily kill him. This made it so that he stopped going out, besides going to the military school, where it was unlikely he would get attacked.

His dislike for Nathaniel only grew since he ended up in this situation, and he didn't really like him before. He was arrogant, had a superiority complex, and had a nasty personality. Besides, the fact that he couldn't even tell the others what he did, as he would be considered the leading cause of Nathaniel's death, and he would end up being executed by the Mambas, made him nervous. No, he had to keep everything under wraps.

"It's not. You are right," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "Nathaniel was my friend, you know? It's hard to believe he's gone," he lied. She knew he went out with him and some other people on weekends, but she didn't know what he thought about him.

His girlfriend leaned over and kissed him on the forehead. "I'm here for you," she said. "Whatever you need, I will give it to you."

Achim smiled weakly, grateful for her support. "Thanks," he said.

They lay in silence for a few moments; Achim's mind wandered, thinking about the future of the Mambas. He knew that things were going to get even more complicated in the coming weeks. The power struggle would only intensify, and he had to ensure he and his father came out on top.

***

As he tried focusing on what the two were saying and not on how he did imagine Amber's naked figure, Erik kept listening to their conversation; he didn't know who Achim was for Nathaniel, but hearing that they were friends was something good. He knew he was the one who found the other guys but didn't know much otherwise. However, he was also talking openly about the Mambas, which was a lucky occurrence.

<System, can you record everything?> the young man asked.

[ANSWER: YES, DO YOU WANT ME TO RECORD NOW?]

<Yes, do it, and save the content on my phone,> Erik said in his mind.

[UNDERSTOOD. RECORDING STARTED.]

With that done, Erik was sure that if things turned out badly, he could use this footage to his advantage; besides, he didn't want any information to slip past him.

Achim sat there lost in thought, still thinking about the grim future, when his girlfriend suddenly spoke up.

"You know what? I think you need a break. Something to take your mind off things," she said, a glimmer of excitement in her eyes. "Let's go out tonight and have some fun."

Achim looked at her, surprised at the sudden suggestion. "Where do you want to go?" he asked, feeling a flicker of curiosity.

"I was thinking; we haven't been to the Red Lotus Lounge in a while, the one Nathaniel's father owns. We used to go there every week, remember?" she said, a smile playing at the corners of her mouth. That was before Nathaniel started hanging out with him and the others. Achim never brought his girlfriend with him, scared that Nathaniel could make some claim on her.

The young man's eyes widened in surprise. He hadn't thought about that club in a long time.

"I don't know," he said hesitantly, unsure if he was ready to face the people going there or risk anything dangerous. What if they suspected something about him and killed him on the spot?

But his girlfriend was insistent. "Come on, honey. It'll be good for you to get out of your head and just have some fun for a night. And who knows, maybe it'll help you process everything that's been going on."
