I was uncharacteristically nervous. Uncharacteristic in the sense I didn’t get
nervous—not ever. Showing fear or uncertainty got someone like me dead.
This was not the first time I was being escorted into a meeting with
powerful men. Nor was this the first time I was going into an unknown
situation.
Yet none of those men were as dangerous or unpredictable as Zane
Lewis.
Perhaps it was the hours of silence. No, I was used to that; criminals
didn’t tend to chitchat before a sit-down.
Maybe it was because I’d opted for casual. That had to be it; my jeans
and flip flops were throwing me off my game. The normal clicking of my
heels on the tile was absent—weirdly, sound centered me before I faced
down the filth I normally sat across from.
Theo Jackson stopped to place his hand on a fingerprint scanner. As I
waited I looked around the empty reception area. The space was oddly
bland—a typical receptionist’s desk that, from my view, didn’t look like it
had anything on it but a phone. A boring two-seater leather couch, two
chairs, and two end tables. No signage above the desk. No magazines to
read while you waited. There wasn’t even a plant to liven up the room.
Nothing in the room gave away this was the Z Corps office.
But what struck me as odd was the lack of an elevator. We’d come in
from the garage by way of stairs and there was no elevator in there either.
A car honking drew my attention to the street. Large, framed plates of
thick glass on either side of a glass door gave an unobstructed view outside.
“Polycarbonate ballistic windows,” Easton Spears weirdly stated.
“I’m sorry?”
“They’re bulletproof.”
Of course they are.
I didn’t get to respond—not that I had anything to say about bullet proof
windows—before Theo opened the door. Easton wordlessly gestured for me
to enter the hallway. For the first time since Zane’s men had picked me up,
real apprehension curled in my belly. I was well aware I was unarmed and
entering a windowless hallway with two very big men. For some reason
being in a plane with them hadn’t felt this concerning, neither had the silent
car rides we’d taken to and from the airport.
But here, in this tight space, there was no escape. No one to help me. No
weapon on my person to defend myself with.
I tried to remember my father’s earnest expression and the relief I heard
in his voice when he explained his plan. He’d said Zane’s call to him had
been serendipitous and was the in we’d needed.
That might’ve been true,
but I wasn’t feeling the same relief my father was feeling. There was too
much at stake. Too much that could go wrong. If I didn’t maneuver this just
right everything would implode and I would be the cause of it. One wrong
move and I could be the Yoko Ono of Z Corps.
