When the elevator arrives, I rush inside and sag against the back wall, closing my eyes. What a fucking day, and I still have to meet Bronson. Groaning, I ride down to my car and slide into the leather, relaxing for a moment before I start the engine.

Well, at least now they might actually start treating me like a human instead of an object.

I meet Bronson behind Taco Bell like he asked, and when I get out of the car, he strides over before getting in my face. “No wire? Do you want to go back to jail?” he threatens.

“Oh, cut the shit. I couldn’t wear it, they would find it. We need a different way. Did the receipt help at least?” I snap, propping my hands on my hips.

“Don’t give me shit, O’Brien, just do it,” he yells in my face before storming away as I throw my hands in the air.

“Maybe if you told me more of what I’m looking for,” I start, but he gets in his car and peels away, leaving me standing there. “I could help,” I finish. “Asshole.”
