“Sorry, what?” Diesel prodded, and Corvus lifted his chin, waiting.

The Ace lifted his head to look Corvus in the eyes. “I-I’m sorry we tried to k-kill you.”

Diesel dragged him two feet to his left, placing him in front of me. “Apologize.”

My nose wrinkled at the smell of fresh urine, and I stepped back a step to avoid the growing puddle beneath the Ace’s feet.

“I-I’m so sorry,” the Ace said to me, his snot running down to his chin.

Diesel shoved the Ace away, making him fall to his knees in his own urine in front of Ava Jade and Rook.

“You aren’t finished,” Diesel roared, bending to grab a fistful of his hair to stop his whimpering, forcing him to look up at Rook and Ava Jade. Rook grinned down at him. AJ looked like she might carve his face into a jack-o-lantern and put it on her front porch.

“I’m sorry,” he cried. “I’m so, so, so sorry. Please. Please.”

Diesel let him go, and he slumped forward, fists against the pavement, shaking.

“Satisfied?” Diesel asked Corvus.

Corvus’ upper lip curled. “No.”

“Grey?” Diesel asked.

“Not in the slightest.”

“And you?” he asked Ava Jade.

She shook her head mutely.

“Rook? You satisfied?”

“Not yet,” Rook said with a wicked gleam in his eyes.

Diesel’s cheekbones flared, he nodded once, lifted his gun again and emptied the clip into the Ace’s skull to a riot of screams from the fine citizens of Thorn Valley watching at his back.
