"Well for one, the people working for you don't seem to have an option, the one outside, that you refer to as 'Dog' I happen to know that her name is Iskeira, but for some reason every time I say it she seems to be in pain. Oh, not mention that they all have what appears to be Marks on their souls. Those marks aren't natural, nor are they healthy."

"Marks on their souls? Now, that is interesting. I don't know much about souls, myself, honestly. I do know that most of the people who end up working with me come from very... troubled backgrounds. Much like your own."
He smiled again, and gave a slight shake of his head. "They're all here willingly, and of their own accord. Isn't that right, Dragon?" he asked, looking up at the girl. She smiled back down at him and nodded, turning to look at Drake.

"That brings me to number two."
He would point at both kids.
"I may not walk the brightest path, but those two are on a whole different path than I'm on and if they enjoy working for you, I'm 100% certain I won't."

"What path, exactly, are they on?" the man asked with a tilt of his head, seeming to be genuinely curious.

"They're souls are the darkest most corrupted souls I've ever seen. Even compared to you, which is about as evil as every other douche with a power complex that I've met to date."

The man couldn't help but laugh. He seemed totally unruffled by Drake's insults, and just sat there, looking... well, amused. He gave a little shrug of his shoulders.
"Then do as you will. You have fun out there, boy." He raised a hand and gave a little wiggle of his fingers.

"I always do as I will."
He would say as he turned around to leave, leaving behind the blood spirit until he exited the building at which point it would sink back into the ground from which it had come. Drake would look to see if Iskeira was still outside.

Dog was still leaning against the wall, her red eyes staring down at her shoes as if she saw something interesting. She made no movement towards him as Drake left.

"Your boss is a narcissistic douche bag with delusions of Grandeur."
He would say turning to Iskeira. Hands now in his pockets.
"How long do you think I have before I start to see 'signs' that are meant to make me reconsider?"

She snickered and gave a one-shouldered shrug. She kicked lightly at the ground and glanced back up to Drake, her eyes burning with words she left unspoken.
"Don't worry about yourself."

"Tsk, if I was worried about myself I never woulda come here."
He looked back at the building.
"He is planning something. I can feel it in my bones, and I don't like the feeling he gave off."
He looked back at Iskeira.
"Did you really choose to work for him voluntarily?"

She stared at him for a moment, and there was something in her gaze. She sighed, softly, and bent her head down once more, almost as if in shame.
"Yeah. I chose to."

Drake shook his head.
"That was stupid."
He sighed.
"I'll find a way to break your contract. Next time you make a stupid ass decision, you're on your own."
With that Drake would hand her his number.
"If you ever have more cryptic information that you want to confuse me with. Call or text me."

Dog took his number without a word, holding it up and making a show of slipping it into her back pocket. She gave him a nod, and then returned to her usual posture and position, leaned back against the wall, staring, bored, at her shoes.

Drake would shrug and leave.
