STIRLING
On the scale of one to this-is-going-to-end-really-fucking-badly, I’d
say this negotiation is about three seconds from screwing me so
hard I’ll be limping for weeks. But then, I’ve never been one to
back down from a deal, and I don’t lose negotiations—except maybe to
Morrigan, but that’s entirely sex related.
Roman was clear: negotiate the shipping times, the boat needs to be
docked by six tomorrow, and he doesn’t care what it takes.
Of course, ‘doesn’t care what it takes’ is a sign that he cares very
fucking deeply, and I had better pull it over the line in the most efficient
way possible, so help me gods.
“Look, Lenny—” I start. A sharp sea breeze curls around the harbour
whipping under my white shirt. A line of goosebumps freckle my arms. I’m
not sure if it’s the wind or the irritation. This deal means more than just
Roman’s poxy fucking imports.
“Don’t ‘look’ me, missy. The port is double-booked, and unfortunately
for you, the other merchant reserved the slot first. So you’re just going to
have to wait.”
I sniff, wipe my hand over my mouth.
There are very few depths I won’t stoop to in order to pull a deal over
the contractual line. Scarlett, my twin sister, might be more outwardly
competitive, but I’d gut a bitch that got in the way of a negotiation. Lucky
for this snivelling dock boy, I don’t need to play the Roman card, because
I’m pulling rule three of being a negotiator: always have dirt on your
clients.
“Lenny, doll. There’s no need to shit the bed over this.” I grab him by
the shoulders, spin him around and park him on a crate facing the ocean.
Then I lean into his ear and whisper real low and creepy.
“Now you listen to me you son of a bitch. I know you have a nice little
pregnant wifey at home. I also know you have a rather regular habit of
dropping into a certain club in town, for people with particular tastes.”
He swallows so loud I hear the lump go down.
“Tastes that include shoving your mangey cock in a bucket of leeches
and letting them suck the erection dry. Now, I don’t know about you, but
I’m pretty sure my wife would take issue with that, especially if she was
carrying my kid.” I stand up, give him a couple tap-slaps on his cheek.
He pales as he turns to face me. “You can be a real cunt, Stirling, you
know that?”
I nod, sagely. “Mmm, so can divorce. Expensive things those. About
that dock slot…?”
