“Together?” My lip twitches. “No fucking way.”

“What, you wanna go in there all by yourself?” He snorts. “Way to get yourself killed in a second.”

“I know how to kill,” I retort, my hand turning into a fist just from the thought of getting my hands on Lex. “And I will fucking gut that son of a bitch and everyone on his side.”

He laughs. “I like that attitude.”

“You mentioned a side entrance,” I say, cutting to the chase.

“Before I tell you all about that, I need to have some assurances.”

“What do you want?” I ask in a low, monotone voice.

“His money and the house,” he replies.

Of course. That’s all this was ever about.

All of those fuckers are the same.

“Done.”

“Well, that was easy.” He snorts again.

“I don’t care about any of that.”

“What do you care about then?” he asks. “Revenge?”

“Aurora.”

There’s a moment of silence.

“You really want her that badly, huh?”

I don’t answer. The look on my face speaks volumes.

“Every minute wasted here with you is another one stolen from her,” I growl.

His brows rise. “And eloquent too. Charming.”

I’m so done with this motherfucker. “Don’t act like you know me.”

“True, I don’t,” he says. “But I’d like to.”

“Not a chance,” I spit back. “This is a one-time thing only. I take her, and we disappear.”

“Okay. Deal.” He cracks his knuckles. “Anything else?”

“Her father. Fat blob, hairy chin. Don’t touch him,” I snarl. “He’s mine.”

“Fine. Don’t care. Next.”

“That’s it.”

“That’s it?” he parrots.

I tilt my head at him.

“All right … well, that was easy.” He flicks the knife again, almost like it gets him fired up. “I’m ready to beat the shit out of whoever needs some ass kicking.”
