Motherfucker doesn’t know who he’s dealing with and he has the audacity to smile and act like he’s not fazed. I give him credit for his attempt.

The thing is, Vincent might be a little hesitant to kill him for the worry over starting some shit in the underground, but Claudius won’t be.

Who’s worse than anybody here is me.

This prick doesn’t know that though and that’s why he thinks he can play with me.

He doesn’t know that I only became an accountant for the business to keep my mind occupied and The Dark Odyssey is my guilty pleasure. My playground.

He can go fuck himself after this.

“Wow, it’s an all-star party out tonight. Alright then,” Tobias growls. He’s still smiling but I can see he’s mad as fuck that we have important company. “Let’s do this.” He flicks his hand over and one of his goons steps forward and hands him a case.

He takes it and snaps it open, revealing a classic revolver with one single bullet.

One bullet that I pray won’t get lodged in my head.

Jesus Christ, what the fuck am I getting myself into?

I look back at my brothers and they look on edge, my gaze flicks over to Charlotte and she’s starts crying. Looking at her however is all I need to answer my question.

This broad has definitely done some kind of number on me, to have me wanting her for the last ten years and now I’m here playing the fatal game of chance for a month with her.

I better make sure I live through this.

I have a lot of things planned for that month.

Tobias hands me the gun case and I take it. I check out the gun first to make sure it’s not rigged with shit or tampered with and then I place the bullet in.

It’s showtime.

Tobias smiles wide in a maddening way and starts to chuckle when I spin the cylinder of the gun.

The look on his face is victory as I place the muzzle to the side of my head. I played this game one time only with a bunch of guys in college. One of them ended up dead. I was the fucker who got lucky and I hope that luck will follow me today.

My finger smooths over the trigger and I pull it back.

Click- Clack…

My heart is pounding and I can’t do anything about it.

My mind is strong but my vitals are another story. I blow out a sharp breath, all the while I make sure I keep my gaze on the bastard…. and release the trigger.

And…

Fuck.

I’m still alive.

I’m still alive.

Tobias’s smile falls and he sneers. The man growls and does exactly what I expected him to do by pulling his own gun on me.

We were prepared for that. A single bullet flies past me and snatches the gun out of his hand giving me the opportunity to grab him.

We have this all planned. Nick is to take Charlotte and get her away from danger while the rest of us fight these fuckers. He does just that.

I manage to grab Tobias in his neck. The prick, however, recoils on me into some stance and lands a fist in my face.
