There’s only one way to give the money back, and I did it first so I could spend time getting everything I could from them.

“I created a new account for you at the same Cayman Islands bank as before and transferred the money to that account. This is your account number, user name, and password. You can change it but not for twenty-four to thirty-six hours when the account has been approved.”

He glares at me. “You might be a smart bitch, but you’re not smarter than me. This little ploy won’t save you.”

I roll my eyes. “Look, dude, you insisted on going back in time and using a fucking bank account. Even in the Cayman Islands, you need some form of identification before they verify the account.”

“You didn’t do any funny shit?” He’s desperate to hear me tell him it’s all done so he can kill me.

“I did what you asked.”

“That’s not a goddamned answer!”

I bite back another smile at how easily this man was rattled. “I’m dead either way, right? You figure it out.”

“Fucking goddamn whore,” he growls and pulls out the gun. Again. He flashes a tight smile that’s more of a grimace. “On your knees.”

There’s no point in pissing off the psycho any further, so I push onto my knees and ignore the pain of the hard floor digging into my kneecaps. I bow my head with a devilish smile over what I had done. It will only be discovered in the wake of my death, but soon enough, my smile turns sad.

I’ll never get to see Ro again, to tell that bitch that I love her and that our friendship is the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’m also sad that I’ll never get a chance to make things right with my mom. I feel awful that she’s lost Frank, and now she won’t have me.

“You’re not gonna beg for your life? Offer some deviant sexual acts in an effort to save yourself?”

“No.” I would never give this crazy fuck the satisfaction.

He shrugs, still smiling. “Bowie, get your ass in here now!”

Bowie appears in the doorway, and he has to be even younger than me, with spiky bleached blond hair and tattoos across his brow line.

“What’s up, Boss?”

“Check this bitch’s work and make sure she got all my money back.” Hector nods at the laptop at my side, and Bowie reaches to pick it up.

“Do it right here.”

The way Bowie freezes in fear for a fraction of a second tells me that he’s up to some shit too. His sharp green eyes scan over the screen as his middle finger taps buttons to switch through dark web profiles and crypto accounts. I can tell the moment he spots what I’ve done. Some of it, anyway.

“Shit,” he gasps and turns terrified eyes to Hector.

“What?”

“She’s emptied the crypto accounts. They’re all on zero.”

I smile up at Hector’s furious face.

“Reverse it,” he orders and presses the gun against my forehead.

“No.”

“I’m going to kill you,” he growls.

“I know.” I smile, and Hector raises one foot and kicks me in the chest with all of his might. I fall to the ground, breathless from the kick.

“Just put the money back.”

“Can’t. But that shouldn’t be your concern right now.”

“Yeah?” He laughs and shakes his head. “And why is that?”
