‘Maybe you’ll believe this idiot.’ Heck poked Nayka’s cheek with the Makarov. ‘Tell him.’
‘Is true,’ the hostage said sullenly. ‘He called in. They know.’
‘If they know, boss, they’ll be on the way now,’ one of the others warned. ‘We should –’
‘It’s not my style to bring the cavalry when all I want to do is talk,’ Heck cut across him.
This was greeted by a short, bemused silence.
‘So …’ Ship shrugged. ‘Talk.’
‘First of all, I’m sure you lot didn’t come here with toys either. So let’s see the hardware. And by that I mean the real stuff. All of it, now – on the floor.’
Ship gave a wintry smile. ‘And meanwhile what do you do?’
‘I keep wielding the upper hand, Mr Ship. Which is perfectly reasonable given you’ve got a thirty-to-one advantage.’
There was another brief silence, but the gang boss seemed genuinely interested to see what would happen next. He glanced at his cronies and nodded.
‘Boss!’ someone protested.
‘Do it!’ he barked.
Gradually, a succession of weapons clattered onto the asphalt: not just the bats and pickaxe handles Heck had already seen, but pistols, knives, machetes.
‘Smart move,’ Heck said. He now noticed a hanging leather harness attached to long straps that were looped over a steel beam in the ceiling. ‘You fellas pick the strangest places for your weird sex games.’
‘You’re fucking dead, you piece of filth!’ one of them growled.
‘We’ll break you in half, pig!’ the young one called Trevor shouted. ‘We’ll see you in the fucking Pain Box!’
