When the guy looks at him to move his arm he doesn’t, he simply stares him down.

“Move your arm,” the guy says to Vincent.

“I’d love to see you fucking make me. I’d like it more if you seriously tried. I’d rip your skin off your face, shred it bit by bit and mess you up. Prep you for your place next to me in hell.” The cool edge Vincent speaks with sends a chill down me.

He’s changed.

He has. He’s had to. He’s become ruthless and heartless. it’s him because I know he’s serious as fuck.

The guard knows it too and takes the hint not to push him.

I steal my spine when the door at the end of the dock opens.

Marc comes out and Mimi is with him.

She has her hands tied behind her and her face is black and blue. He hit her and messed her up.

It’s enough to make me kill him now, but what deters me is the little bomb vest strapped to her chest.

He has a fucking bomb on my girl.

Chapter Forty-Six

Salvatore

Mimi looksat me and there’s so much sadness in her eyes.

God help me I try not to be too enraged with the state she’s in but doing that makes helplessness crush me.

As Marc places a gun to her head in one hand and waves around a little remote in his other hand, Lawrence Fontaine makes his presence known along with Stephanou and Ricardo.

I look on, truly seeing what I’m up against.

I see it and it’s not looking good. It’s not looking like I’m going to get her back alive.

“Welcome aboard The Maiden,” Marc says, his voice loud and heavy with the power he has over us.

“Save the pleasantries Marc Fontaine, we don’t need it,” Vincent answers. There’s a tick in his jaw that worsens the longer Stephanou stares at him.

Vincent turns his gaze to Stephanou and stares him down when he chuckles.

“Laugh,” Vincent says. “Go ahead and laugh. We’ll see who’ll laugh at the end of the day.”

“You talk like you actually can do anything,” Stephanou answers. “You’re helpless as shit. Useless and we own your ass.”

“Much as I love this pissing contest I vote we move to business,” Marc cuts in. “Hand over the files.”

“Hand over the girl first.” I recoil.

I don’t know who this prick thinks he’s dealing with. He thinks we’re just do as he says.

Fuck him.

Marc smiles.

“Capo, it’s me in charge here. I’m running the show and what I say goes. Hand over the fucking files or she gets it now. I shoot her dead and then I kill the two of you and take it.” He says that like it’s the obvious thing to do.

I realize something in that moment.
