Wes pulled a beer from his fridge, unscrewed the cap, and guzzled half of it in one swallow. Damn hot summer. He’d be glad to get somewhere cooler. The place he’d picked out to take Keeley was way up in the mountains. It’d be cooler up there … private, too. Not a soul around to hear her scream.

The cellphone on his table buzzed. He didn’t want to answer it. She’d be calling for an update. Damned if he wanted to talk to her when he was dripping with sweat. On the other hand, she might have some news on his little rendezvous with Keeley. Taking a chance, he grabbed the phone and snarled, “What?”

“When are you going to do the job I hired you for?”

“Listen, bitch. If you want this done right, you’ll give me some time. Setting something like this up ain’t as easy as you seem to think. That job I done for you before was a no-brainer compared to this one.”

“It’s been almost two weeks. What exactly is taking so long?”

He wasn’t about to tell her the truth. Cole Mathison was damn hard to follow. Every time he thought he had him, the bastard would somehow disappear. It was like he knew something.

“I can get into Fort Knox a lot easier than I can that damn mansion. He ain’t exactly making it easy for me.”

“The sooner you do the job, the sooner you’ll get your reward.”

“I’m going to do it and soon. You just be ready to cough up not only the money you promised, but the woman, too. You double-cross me this time, and it’ll take years for them to find all your parts. You got that?”

She was silent for a long time. Finally she said, “You do your job. I’ll do mine.” The line went dead.

Wes cursed. Damn woman hung up on him. Not that he had anything else to say to her, but he didn’t appreciate the disrespect. Maybe once he had Keeley, he’d figure out a way to make the bitch pay for all the aggravation she’d caused. It’d been a long time since he’d done any killing, but it wasn’t something he really minded doing. As long as he didn’t get caught, there wasn’t a lot Wes wouldn’t do.

First he’d take care of Cole Mathison, then he’d get Keeley. Then, before he left town, he’d kill the bitch.

Wes took another slug of his beer. Sounded like a damn fine plan to him.
