Yet.

Hazel claps her hands together, linking her fingers. “Is this necessary?”

“Keep running your mouth and I’ll gag you too.”

A tugging sensation spreads through my abdomen at the image of her bound and gagged, dripping wet and waiting for me. It would be a lie to say that her hateful stare and sharp words didn’t send pulses straight to my cock.

If I was going to take the little vixen to the bedroom, she would find out who has the power in this dynamic.

Right now, it’s clear that she thinks she is in control of the situation.

I can’t wait to show her how wrong she is.

“So, you want to negotiate with me?” She leans against the plastic-covered wall and throws me a cocky smirk.

I should kill her now. Be done with that smart fucking mouth.

There must be other ways to get information about the investigation into the Bratva.

“This is not a fucking negotiation. You’ll tell me what I want to know, and I won’t skin you alive before I cut you to pieces.”

I go over to the assortment of knives, looking through my options. The silence stretches between us as I pick up a scalpel and trace my finger down the handle.

“Over my dead body.” Her tone is sharp, and her voice rises. A slight wavering in the words betrays her.

As I turn with the scalpel in hand, she spits in my direction. Sighing, I shake my head and lean against the counter.

Viktor scoffs and crosses the room, getting in her face. “That can be arranged.”

She gives him a sneer that can only mean trouble, seconds before she slams her head into his nose.

Viktor shouts, taking a step backward as blood streams down his nose and over his chin. It splashes against the white floor.

The rope around Hazel’s wrists drops to the ground. She moves in a flash, reaching for the gun on Viktor’s hip while he clamps a hand to his nose. She pulls out the gun and aims at me.

Fuck. If she wasn’t a cop, I would want her to teach my men a thing or two.

I stare down the barrel of the gun and drop the scalpel to the counter. “And what the fuck do you think you’re going to do with that?”

Hazel flicks off the safety, her finger wrapping around the trigger. “Don’t move or I will shoot.”

Viktor takes a step backward, toward Dimitri. Both men glance at me but I hold up a hand. There’s no need to escalate the situation.

“How many people have you killed, little cop?” I take slow steps toward her.

“I told you not to fucking move.”

“You haven’t killed anyone, have you?” I stop in place, tucking my hands in my pockets. “You’ve never pulled that trigger and watched the life drain from another person’s eyes. You’re too young to have any true skills as a cop. No, you’re just a little girl playing in a dangerous world of monsters you can’t possibly begin to understand.”

“Enough.” She keeps the gun level. Her hands don’t tremble and there isn’t an ounce of fear in her.

Maybe she has killed someone.

I should have tied that fucking rope tighter. She fucking duped me.

“No. You want to play with me?” I smirk and pull my hands out of my pockets, spreading my arms wide. “Then play the fucking game, little cop. Show me how badass you think you are.”

Taunting her might be a bad idea, but no woman is going to make me look like a fool.
