VIVIAN
Crashing down into his arms from the ceiling was trouble enough, but
his furious gaze was worse.
I was now in serious danger.
The problem with working with criminals was that they were, well…
criminals.
I couldn’t trust a single one of them as far as I could throw them.
This bastard owed me money and was skipping town without paying.
I didn’t care that he was some big, fancy dictator of some country I’d
never even heard of.
A deal was a deal. I’d held up my end. Now he needed to pay up.
Although it wouldn’t provide much protection, I stuffed a switchblade
into my Marc Jacobs tote bag before storming down to the warehouse.
The knife was more of a novelty item, with its pink pearl handle
covered in silver glitter hearts, but strictly speaking—it was still a freaking
knife.
And would show him I meant business.
After entering the warehouse from the loading dock, my first warning
was the horrible, rotten egg smell. This differed from the usual moldy wood
and stale urine stench that permeated the century-old brick and cement
building.
The hair on the back of my neck rose as I approached the hallway,
which led to Abakar’s office. My ears strained to hear the usual banal
conversation about dog track races and women from the two bodyguards,
who were usually stationed outside the door.
Nothing.
The hallway wasn’t silent as much as there wasn’t any sound.
It was too silent.
Like a forest with no bird song.
If I didn’t need the money, I would have fled.
That stupid commission took me six months. I worked on it to the
exclusion of all other projects. I had rent due, a car payment, bills, and a
designer purse addiction to feed.
Abakar owed me a lot of money. I couldn’t afford to just walk away.
My steps slowed as I neared a corner. I cautiously inched forward and
peeked around the brick edge.
Several large men dressed all in black and holding guns marched down
the opposite end of the hall. My gaze shifted to Abakar’s reinforced steel
office door. Two twining curls of smoke rose from the hinges. The source of
the acrid sulphur stench.
It was a hit squad.
No amount of money was worth my life.
With panic overwhelming me, I turned and sprinted up the closest
staircase.
The moment I reached the landing, I realized my mistake. The second
level of the warehouse was just a massive open space filled with litter and
dust, but nothing else. Nowhere to hide.
