“Lawyer is the closest thing to DuPont.” I can’t look him in the eye.

“She will kill me! She tried to kill Reese! You said you would protect her!” he exclaims. “You promised!”

Kevin pushes my shoulder and I am starting to get pissed off at his response to things tonight.

“Don’t,” I warn.

“Or what?” he pushes again.

“Oh, catfight!” Jessica all but bounces in her seat.

“Shut up!” Kevin and I yell at her.

“Someone is on their period.” She talks through her teeth.

I nod to her and continue to take the rope off one hand. She stands, satisfied, as I keep her other hand bound, then Kevin again expresses his displeasure.

“Lawyer is the last key to taking DuPont down! I’ve hit his financial bottom line, I’ve taken his homelife and blown it up, his business is on a downward spiral, and if I can get his lawyer, then he will have no backing or legal leg to stand on,” I explain.

“This is a fucking mistake! She is a snake!” He paces the room. “Adam, seriously, think about what you are doing! She will kill Reese and me! Do not do this!”

I can hear the fear in his voice, but I’ve already made my decision. “Sorry.”

He shakes his head and walks to the back of the room. Jessica stands before me with her egotistical smile. Smug bitch.

“It will be great to work with you again.” She winks at me.

Before she realizes it, I twist her around and pull her arm behind her back. The same arm that has the restraint on it. I grab her other hand, jerking it to her back as well.

“What are you doing?” she yells. “We had a deal! You nodded!”

I pull her back hard to my chest and whisper in her ear so that she is the only one to hear. “You tried to take away the one light in my life. You signed the death certificate.”

I quickly wrap the rope around her arms and chest. Covering her neck and then letting the rope twist through several parts of the restraint. I swipe her legs and pick her up, carrying her to the bed, where I lay her on her stomach.

“I should’ve killed you sooner!” she screams.

Kevin walks over with wide eyes.

“Kevin, cover her mouth!” I instruct. He finally snaps out of his thoughts and covers her mouth. His face distorts with conflict.

I make two more loops as I pull her ankles up to her butt and pull the rope through. It takes longer to get her where I want because she is squirming, but in the end—she is hogtied and left to die.

I stand back to marvel at my work and grab Kevin’s shoulder. He turns to me, perplexed. I gesture for him to follow me. Jessica is wiggling to try and escape as best she can, not realizing her fate. Anyone with the slightest rope fetish knows the limits. Placement and time of holds. It is a beautiful piece of work to behold. Just not the kind a normal person would gawk over.

“The more she wiggles, the more the knot tightens around her neck.” I point to her legs, which are shaking.

Kevin looks more closely at her and he focuses on her face turning red and her voice cracking with every movement. Together, we watch as she slowly fades and now is the time for us to stage the scene. I nudge Kevin to grab his attention and I pick up my bag. We place candles around the room and turn on some light music. I cut Jessica’s clothes off and pull them through the ropes until she is down to her underwear. We pick Allison up and move her closer to the bed. She will be out for a while longer, but by then, we will be long gone.

I take one more look around the room before I am satisfied with the results. We back out of the apartment to the scaffolding. Putting our gear back on, we continue to clean the windows.

“Why don’t we just leave?” Kevin looks anxious.

“No, pace yourself.” I hold my finger up to my lips, shushing him from talking further.

He nods and continues to clean. Takes a few hours, but we finally make it to the top of the building. Climbing over the raised barrier to the roof, I find the cell tower. Standing underneath it, I pull out a burner phone and call 911.

“The apartment above mine, there is a nasty argument going on. I hear stomping and yelling.” I alter my voice to a higher pitch. “I live in apartment 25B…” I continue. “No, I don’t want to give my name. The lady that lives above me is crazy.”
