“That mouth of yours is about to be put to better use if you don’t shut it,” he threatened. And even in my drunken state it was very clear what that meant.

Trying to think of anything to get myself out of here in one piece, I came up with the only thing that might encourage them to let me go. “My friends know I’m in here and will come looking for me. They’ll report this to the police if you don’t let me go.”

“What the fuck is this?”

Turning around the best I could in monster number one’s painfully tight grip, I was greeted by the devil himself. Just looking at him gave me the clarity as to why so many would sell their souls to this man. He oozed a terrifying perfection like lava flowing from an erupting volcano, threatening to consume you and turn your soul to dust.

“This bitch was snooping around in here and overheard your conversation.”

If this asshole called me a bitch one more time... well, I probably wouldn’t be able to do very much about it but at the very least I was going to get one good kick to his balls in. “How many times do I have to tell you, I don’t appreciate being called abitch, and I didn’t hear anything! I was looking for the restroom...” With every word out of my mouth, my voice rose until my eyes connected to his cold, dark ones once more. Then my words seemed to die out on my tongue for fear he might hear them.

“What do you want me to do with the nosey bitch?”

Again with the bitch. Cassidy Crawford wouldn’t put up with this guy’s mouth,I thought. But then again, she couldn’t really die, unlike myself right now.

The Devil answered him with only a look. It was a look so cold and threatening, it had monster number one releasing me as if I had suddenly burst into flames, about to turn his beefy hands to charcoal. This devil needed no words to make people jump to do his bidding.

Only a look.

With a motion of his chin, both of the monsters walked past us and into the room where the badly beaten man lay. Hearing a groan and what sounded like a body being dragged across the floor and the bang of a door slamming, I was left all alone with the devil staring straight into my soul.










Chapter

Two

Creed

If this piece of shitactually thought he was going to be able to steal from me and see the light of day, my reputation as a vicious businessman was seriously slipping. No one, and I mean no one ever crossed me and lived to tell about it. No matter how small the amount was. This greedy fucker thought it would be a good idea to skim from the cash drawer the past two weeks and got caught.

Staring down at the pathetic sight in front of me, the sound of voices arose from the other side of the wall. Noticing that one of them was a woman’s voice caused me to turn my attention away from the soon to be dead man in front of me.

The moment I entered the room, I couldn’t take my eyes off of her.

Observing the tight grip, Torin, had on her caused an anger to rise up inside of me like nothing I’d ever felt before. It was the kind that threatened the existence of one of my best friends lives, and he knew it. All it took was one look from me to know just how close I was to ending him.

After releasing her, he and Merric left the room to tend to my problem, I’d left behind. Once I was alone with her, I eyed my prey closely, scanning her beautiful body while taking in all the telltale twitches her body showed. Even though she had an intrepid look in her eyes, she was broadcasting her fear like a neon sign in the middle of Times Square. Her rapid breathing was the first dead giveaway that she knew just how much trouble she was in right at this moment, and she was scared shitless.
