With no place to go now that OPS was basically out of the picture, we headed to the nearest hotel, checking in under aliases Cap had set in place. Thankfully, aside from Vira’s tired appearance, she was otherwise less disheveled than expected, which made it easier to slip her inside without too much attention.

After making our way upstairs and securing the room, we finally got down to what was really going on. “So, any idea why your father is after you?”

She took a deep breath as she walked over to the window. Thankfully, the blinds gave her enough cover that I wasn’t concerned about her safety. “My father is dead.”

I glanced at the others, wondering what fresh hell we stepped into. “So, he’s not after you.”

She turned, shaking her head. “But I guess he left me everything.”

“Everything, as in…”

She shrugged slightly. “I don’t have the details. I heard from a lawyer. He informed me my father passed and wanted me to attend a reading of the will.”

“And I take it you didn’t go.”

“I told the lawyer he could shove it up his ass.” She sighed, walking over to the couch and slumping down on it. “But apparently, it’s not as simple as that.”

“It never is,” Cazzo grunted.

“And was that the last you heard from the lawyer?”

She bit her lip slightly, her worry over the situation apparent. “The lawyer suggested he fly out to see me. He said there was a lot to go over. I still don’t understand why he left it to me.”

“Your father probably put something in the will about why he left everything to you,” Burg answered.

“So, someone knows your father left you everything,” I surmised. “Which means they either saw the will before he died, or someone got to the lawyer. Any idea who it could be?”

“No. I haven’t had contact with him in years. And frankly, it just doesn’t make sense. He was so disappointed in me. I don’t see why he would want to leave me a thing.”

“Death has a way of putting things in perspective,” Burg answered. He would know. Emma almost died of cancer.

“So, what do we do now?”

“We have to get ahold of Cap and find out where OPS is. They have to be close by,” Cazzo suggested. “It’s too dangerous to drive all the way back to Pennsylvania. And if we’re going to find out who’s after you, we need resources.”

“When was the last time you had contact with your ex?” I asked.

“Not since you blackmailed him,” she answered. “I thought…”

“He shouldn’t be a problem,” I clarified. “But the stakes are higher now. We need to know exactly what your father left you so we can find out who stands to benefit the most if you were to die.”

She blew out a breath, nodding to me. There was no easy way to tell someone they could die, but she needed to be aware of what was going on. Besides, Vira wasn’t a fragile woman. She could take it, and the more knowledge she had, the better equipped she was to fight whoever was after her.
