Ben waited by the hotel room’s phone, wondering what the hell he was supposed to do. His nose wasn’t broken but it throbbed like a son of a bitch. He knew he shouldn’t have pushed, but he hadn’t known what else to do. After receiving the worst kind of information a man could possibly receive, he was now desperate to get Cyril Woods six feet under, and anybody who stood in his way should be warned to stay well clear of the man.

Earlier he’d sent a text message to a private number and got a reply, telling him to be alone in the room in one hour. He looked at his watch. Fifty-eight minutes had passed since the text and now his impatience was back with full force.

He didn’t have fucking time to waste.

Going over to the sports bag, he opened it up to check on his weapons. A few automatic guns, a couple of Glocks and other types of weaponry. He pulled out his hunting knife, enjoying the feel of it in his hand.

This wasn’t the man he should be. He’d become a man hell bent on revenge and look at him—a pitiful excuse of existence who ruined women and shattered lives, shaking his head against each disaster, the bitter memory of the pain he’d caused and inflicted over the years.

The ringing of the telephone pulled him out of his remorse.

“Fuckwit here.”

“What the fuck was the text for? I’ve got shit up to my arse to do to try to make this work, and you tell me ‘tomorrow’?” the voice on the other end yelled.

Ben knew the man but knew better than to use his real name.

“I’ve got information—use it or fuck it. But, one way or the other, Cyril Woods will end tomorrow.” Ben gave him the location of where they were staying, even knowing it was a risk in case other people were listening in.

They ended the call and Ben slammed the phone down. For too long he’d been taking orders. Once Cyril was done and finished, he was going to end it. No more hunting, no more missions. Taking life as an ordinary type of man with a nine-to-five job.

Picking up the phone, he dialled her number.

“Hello.”

Ben closed his eyes, her sweet voice ringing in his mind.

“Hello?” she said again and he knew he could sit here all night listening to her talk.

“Tomorrow… Be out of town and get away. I don’t want you in the crossfire.”

“Ben? What the fuck?”

“Stop swearing. It doesn’t suit you. Please, Beth… This once, listen to me and get out of there. Cyril will come after you regardless of you being his daughter.”

He disconnected the call, hoping in his heart she’d listen to him. He grabbed the phone, yanked out the cord and threw it against the wall. Looking into the mirror by the dresser, he wondered if he could be the man Beth needed. The woman deserved more. But if he survived tomorrow, he was going to go and finally claim her as his.
