I do precisely what he says just so his fingers will unlatch.
“Good girl.”
His fingers unfurl, and I struggle to suck in the breaths before I lose it entirely.
“Now tell me why you came here.”
“You ruined my life. It’s only fair I ruin your kill,” I respond.
“You…” Nathan growls behind me as he steps up. It’s two against one now. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done?”
“You lured him here to kill him, no?” I raise a brow. “Job done.”
Nathan drives his knife into the wall beside my head, startling me.
“We needed his money!”
“Money?” I frown, snorting. “Why? Aren’t you rich?”
His eyes narrow, but he doesn’t respond, which tells me everything I need to know.
“Was. Was rich,” Milo says from the back.
Jesus. And here I was thinking these boys were wealthy as fuck. Must be some fall from grace.
Nathan throws him a damning glance before continuing. “It’s none of your concern. You stole what I needed. Twice. And you’re going to pay for it.”
I snort. “What do you want me to do? I can’t bring him back to life.”
“Maybe you guys should’ve told her you wanted to keep him alive?” Milo muses.
“Shut up,” Nathan and I say in unison.
Kai steps aside to allow him access, but he’s still got his hand around my throat.
Nathan tilts his head, a devious smirk slowly forming on his face. “I know how you can repay us.” He pulls the knife from the wall and brings it to my chest, toying with my nipples right through the fabric of my top as he leans in to whisper into my ear, “You’re going to fucking offer up your own hard-earned money.”
He fishes in my pocket, filtering out all of my belongings, finding only mere change.
“Where do you keep it, Lana?”
“You’re out of luck, bud. I don’t have what you’re looking for,” I say. “My father has a tight leash on the money. And I’ve already spent most of mine this month.”
His nostrils flare, rage overflowing behind his eyes.
“Then you’ll offer up your beautiful fucking body.”
My eyes widen. “What?”
“Or I could show your family all the proof from your killer side business,” he says.
Vindictive son of a bitch.
“Oh, you dirty bastard,” Milo muses. “You just want her for yourself.”
“Fuck off. You already had your turn,” Nathan grits at him, but his eyes are still homed in on mine. “If I can’t have the money, I’ll take the fucking pussy instead.”
“No,” Kai interjects, his fingers still clasped around my throat like he doesn’t want to let go. “I’m going to teach her a lesson first about interfering with our work. And then you can have your way with her.”
