“It’s going to set the whole place on fire.”

Dimitri held up one of the light bulbs and tilted his head to the side.

“This little thing is going to burn down a whole warehouse?” he questioned.

“Yup,” I responded.

The best part was they would never know we did it because all the evidence would go up in flames. Not to mention we had no reason to interfere in their business. The Reapers didn’t sell drugs, so it wouldn’t make sense for us to be involved.

“You’re using one of Kujo’s pyro tricks, aren’t you?” Hunter asked.

I nodded.

“This is going to be awesome,” he responded. “I agree with him though. It would be better if we could watch it go up in flames.”

“Considering we don’t know how far their reach is, we need to make sure that we keep the Reapers out of this. I don’t want to give anyone a reason to point their fingers in our direction.”

“Fair enough,” he responded.

“We could always have Liam hack into their surveillance system and give us a video of the whole thing.”

“When are we doing this?”

“First thing in the morning.”

“What about all the innocent people who are helping them?”

“Liam and I made them an offer they couldn’t refuse,” I answered.

Since our informant was one of the females they had working in the warehouse, Liam and I could get her to tell her coworkers not to show up for work the following evening. We made sure each one of them knew they would get a little extra pocket cash once the job was complete. It would be enough to get them through until they could find another form of employment. That way we could guarantee the warehouse to be empty, except for the assholes we wanted to rid the planet of.

“How very Al Capone of you,” Hunter teased.

“If I knew where they lived, I would have put an old cow’s head in their bed.”

“What? Why the cow’s head?” Dimitri asked.

“Because I could get one from the butcher, and I don’t want to go kill a horse just to put its head in someone’s bed.”

Dimitri furrowed his brows. “You’re an odd one, aren’t you?”

“Sometimes she can be,” Hunter responded.

“Like you wouldn’t have thought about it,” I argued.

“I wouldn’t have taken the time to worry about the horse. Hell, I would have gone all the way and put a whole pig in his bed. Wouldn’t that have been hilarious?”

“Some days I wonder if your mom dropped you on your head,” I teased.

“She swears she didn’t, but I wouldn’t put it past one of her many boyfriends,” he replied with a shrug of his shoulder.

“I think there's going to be a Smurf war,” Dimitri said.

Hunter barked out a laugh. “I think you mean turf war.”

“Nope. I meant what I said. It's ridiculous so I've given the situation an even more idiotic name.”

“Thought this was going to be an English as a second language thing.”
