Chapter 15

“What do you want from me?” I’d been locked in a bedroom and dragged onto my knees¸ Ruby Ring crouching in front of me, the threat of more violence to come.

“As I said earlier, you are my newest employee.”

“And what can I do for you that made you need me so badly?”

“Your connections. Your intel. Your usernames and passwords.”

“The money.” I eyed with challenge. “You want the money the FBI has frozen that belonged to the Florez cartel.”

Ruby Ring turned to Hunter. “I see you versed her in what was happening.”

“No use in lies.”

I wanted to scoff outright.

“What did Garcia have to do with any of this? It was you who had him killed wasn’t it?”

Ruby Rings’ eyes narrowed at the mention of my partner’s name. “That puto was just as tempted by dollar signs as much as the rest of us.”

“That’s not true.”

Was it?

“All true. With a promise of a cut he would complete the transaction. But he made a fatal error. Garcia was greedy. He wanted more and then lied about the firewalls in order for us to lose hope. You see, I just didn’t believe that even the FBI was completely indestructible. When he refused to work for us any longer he met his maker.”

“Garcia wasn’t like that.”

“You seem to have a warped perception of people Nina Cross. Far too trusting for own good. Now…” his last word had a finality to it as he advanced toward me, “…it’s simple really,” he said, his ring glimmering in the light from above. “Get the money transferred over to my account and I’ll let you go.”

Everything Hunter had told me in the car about warring cartels chasing the same treasure had been correct. Now, I was given the impossible task of finding it.

“I don’t have access to the account. It’s not in my jurisdiction.”

“Oh, but you do. You’re a lot closer to it than you think.”

“And if I can’t?”

He smiled, revealing perfectly straight teeth. “Do you really wanna know?”

I had a feeling it was something I wouldn’t want to hear.

“So I get you the money and you release me… I lose my job and am thrown in prison for defrauding the government. I don’t get you the money and I die?”

His eyes twinkled. “Bravo.”

“And what about the Baja cartel? Don’t you think they deserve their cut?”

“The Baja have bigger problems to attend to.” His ice cold tone sent a chill down my spine. He leaned own, gripping my chin. “Don’t fuck me over, bonita, or you too will be begging for your life.”

Someone cleared their throat at the door and Ruby Ring’s eyes flickered in annoyance.

“What?” he barked.

“I need a moment with the girl.”

“Is that so?” Ruby Ring’s eyebrows rose, amused, knowing. For a moment before he released my chin, his eyes leered over my body, his suggestion of intimacy making me cringe. He drew me in close and paused until his breath mingled with mine. I swallowed, hating his power trip. He kissed me. Hard. His dominance obvious as he staked his claim.
