Chapter 13

“I feel like my stomach’s about to explode,” Marty complained, yanking at the hem of her ultra-short dress, which made her figure look like she’d popped right out of a magazine for curvy women.

She was stunning in the slinky black Lycra that covered her from chin to mid-thigh like a sleek glove, and if the information Toni had once given to Marty during their many conversations about Stas, she should have no problem getting his attention.

“That’s because your fat ass is warring with your gut,” Nina said on a cackle as she shoveled a freshly baked frozen pizza in her mouth next to Lenny, who was happily eating yet another can of salmon.

Marty’s lips thinned. “Shut up and mind your own P’s and Q’s. Shouldn’t you be washing your driving gloves or something, chauffer?”

Nina planted the heels of her hands on the counter of the kitchen island and leaned over, growling. “I said I’d go in. I can do more than just drive. I told you, just because I’m fucking human, doesn’t mean I can’t still handle some shit.”

“With what? Your fierce glare of death and your awkward, slower-than-an-act-of-congress ninja moves? You stay in the car where you damn well belong, Nina. You are not a vampire anymore. I repeat, not a vampire!”

Wanda dropped a red duffel bag on the island between them with a loud thunk meant to startle the two women she called friends. “Not today, girls. Hear me? We all have to focus on our jobs. No arguing over anything or I swear, I’ll personally rip your vocal chords from your creamy throats. We each have tasks. Tasks that are best suited to our abilities. We will perform said task without a peep of dissention. Now knock it off. We’re all on edge. This is it. This is our chance to finally get Cormac out from under this damn dark cloud that’s been hovering over his head and reunite him with Toni. Don’t screw it up.”

Archibald cleared his throat as he entered the kitchen and sauntered across the floor like a runway model. He wore a pinstriped suit in a deep navy blue, double breasted, coupled with a black shirt and a white tie and a matching fedora.

He was just shy of a Tommy gun and cigar.

Arch did a little twirl and winked his eye at the women, followed by a saucy smile.

Nina wolf-whistled at him. “Every girl’s crazy ’bout a sharp-dressed man, Gansgta!” she whooped.

“I take it you approve, ladies?” he asked on a bow.

Wanda gave him one of those fond smiles she was always doling out, but she shook her head in admonishment. “We’re not going after Jimmy Hoffa, Arch. They’re Russian mobsters, not The Sopranos.”

Arch scoffed at her, clicking his heels together. “It never hurts to dress the part, Lady Wanda. How could I possibly pass up a hat as smart as this one? If I’m to be in charge of keeping our former mistress of the dark on task and in our getaway car, it can only benefit me to get into character.
