Claudius insisted on going to Rockford with me.
I refused his offer because I wanted time to think, but when I got to the facility, that seventh sense of mine kicked in.
Felt like we were being watched.
Amazing how I could always sense trouble. Trouble at its fullest and finest.
But I was stupid to think that Victor or Tag would just allow me to get the diamonds and wait to be told what to do next.
Claudius and I were checked before we were allowed inside the facility. We handed over our guns. Unknown to the guards, however, was that we each carried pocket knives that looked like a key holder.
And we had our fists.
We were led to the vault by a large bald man with a scar on his face. Didnât exactly look like a guard for a place like this that housed antique paintings and family heirlooms. As far as I knew, there wasnât money as such kept here, but there were gold bars and diamonds.
Claudius and I had exchanged glances when the guard first approached us. The look in Claudiusâ expression told me he was thinking the same as me. That we needed to be ready as hell for an ambush once we got our hands on the diamonds.
The guard stayed outside the vault when we went in.
âLuc, I hear footsteps,â Claudius muttered under his breath.
There was shuffling just outside the vault door.
âMe too.â I typed the password into the keypad on the panel outside the glass case, and it opened. The case opened first, then another layer opened, revealing a little silver box. It was the same size as a jewelry box. Iâd imagined it to be bigger, but I guess it would be the contents inside that would make up the volume. I grabbed it, snapped it open, and widened my eyes.
Iâd heard about these diamonds. Imagined that they would be what royalty of olden days used to wear, and not just any old royal either. These diamonds were very rare, and their value was always prevalent.
The box was full. I knew I held a few billion in my hands. All this trouble for these little things.
Claudius looked at them too. âJesus Christ, I could only dream of the wealth contained in this box.â He chuckled and tucked a lock of his hair behind his ear.
âWho wouldnât?â came a voice from behind us.
It was the guard, and he had company. Three tough guys had joined him.
I snapped the box shut and placed it inside my pocket.
âCan I help you with something?â I asked in a cool, even tone, rocking back on my heels like I didnât have a care in the world.
âThe diamonds, please.â The guard put out his hand. The other guys walked up to us. Claudius started laughing.
âReally, you think you can take us?â Claudius challenged.
That was when more men walked into the room. Ten of them.
Fuck, we were fucking outnumbered, but no way in hell was I going to let this end here. These fuckers would get theirs.
