I saw the fear in her eyes as I brought the rock down on the side of her head. All done efficiently and no one saw, that’s the good thing. The trail of blood down the side of her face has dried up and she stirs. Opening her red pepper-sprayed eyes, I register her confusion. She looks momentarily blank.

She makes some half-hearted whimper. I don’t have long before she’ll try to escape or summon up the strength to fight back again so I tighten her binds. She cries a little. She may feel all-powerful in her policing role, fighting crime and making the streets safer but here and now, she is brought down a peg.

‘It’s okay. Don’t be scared. You’re safe here with me.’ My mother was wrong about that look in my eye. That wasn’t the look that said I was about to kill. I’m saving that one for later and only if I need it. If she turns out to be like Amber, it will be all her fault. She will have brought it on herself.
