Dark Business Begins : A Freewrite

Weeks had gone by since Andromeda paid a visit to Madeline's sumptuous abode and endured the enticing offer. During that period, he'd grappled with his conscience, torn between the temptation of financial independence and the dread of breaching ethical limits. The impact of his family's destiny weighed heavily upon his shoulders.

Late one night, as Andromeda sat all by himself in his dusky apartment, he took a firm resolution. He picked up his mobile and dialled Madeline's number. It was essential that he confront the unforeseeable road that stretched out before him.

Madeline's tone was poised as they responded to the call. "Andromeda, I've been anticipating your judgement. What have resolved?"

Andromeda inhaled deeply, his vocal cords strong and even. "All right, Madeline. I'm on board."

A faint grin crossed Madeline's face as he responded, "Terrific, Andromeda. I believed you had the capacity for this. We'll gather tomorrow to go into further particulars."
