"Don't need it."
"What? We do need it. It should have evidence that-"
"Don't need it. She killed him. Plain and simple. She's a black widow."
I pressed my hands to my face and breathed in slowly. "How do you know this?"
"I know everything, Miss Webb. You want her dead? Is that the payoff? Or you want the evidence delivered on your doorstep?"
"I want two things." I dragged my fingers down my face. "Please."
"Sure. Seems doable if you're really willing to fry your daddy's files for me and mine."
"For you. Not the rest of your family." I shook my head.
"Easy enough." He shrugged. "Two things. What are they?"
"Get the evidence that she forced those drugs on him somehow and go with me when I kill her."
He snorted. "You're going to take out the girl?"
"Yes." I nodded, fully aware that my life would change forever, but I couldn't let someone else clean up the mess. She killed my brother and destroyed my father. I needed closure. Even if it changed me forever.
"I'm getting hard just thinking about it." He licked his lips again and smiled. "Deal, Jenna Webb. Set me up with your pretty friend when this is all over."
"Fuck no. Set yourself up." I turned as he walked past me and chuckled low in his chest. Grace would never survive him.
"Expect to hear from me by this weekend."
"Wait. You need the password to Darek's computer."
"No, I don't."
I stood there in the dark, watching him go until Grace jogged back toward me.
"What did I miss?"
"Nothing. Everything." I turned my attention to my best friend. "Would you still love me if I killed someone?"
"Was it an accident?"
"No."
"Did they deserve it?"
"Does anyone deserve to die?" I reached out and ran my hand down her arm.
"Yeah, some people do." She glanced over her shoulder. "Awww... did I miss him leaving?"
"Yeah, but stay away from him Grace. He's a really bad guy."
"I realize that. It's his name I scream when I masturbate."
"Really?" I glanced over at her and shook my head at the silly pink dress she wore. "You're killing me here."
"Speaking of killing... who are we offing?"
"We? No one." I stopped and glanced around. "I'm not letting you get involved."
"You don't have a choice. Where you go - I go."
I nodded as emotion choked me. Of course, my best friend was willing to have my back. Nate wasn't. My sister wouldn't. But Grace... I could always count on Grace.
No matter the request.
