Chapter 236: Quiet before the storm (1) 

"Now, what the hell is this?"

Having just finished hanging up the military uniform he had worn doing the emergency summit, Dax put on his casual wear consisting of some blue shorts and a grey t shirt as he scanned his new apartment. Normally Dax would be in his compound in the old city of Kingstead at this time of day, but instead, he found himself in a brand new and stylish apartment which occupied the entirety of the top floor of a highrise in the new city. The reason suddenly owned such a lavish place was due to Lux, for some reason she had used her executive power to banish him from the compound, instead, she handed him a keycard to this place so he wouldn't spend the entire night out drinking.

(Well, I can always go drinking later, or I could just get myself smashed in here while only wearing a bathrobe…. Yeah, that sounds like a much better idea.)
