"You looking for me?"
"Did you tap my phone?" I glanced down at it.
"Of course I did. I'm in the mafia, Jenna Webb. It's what we do." He walked toward me, and I stiffened. "If I wanted to hurt you, you'd already be bloody."
"Comforting. Really." I reached out and grabbed the bag from him. "Is this the computer?"
"Of course it is." He nodded toward the door. "Denise killed your brother. It's all there. You want me to take her out? Promise number two?"
"No. Yes." I reached up and ran my fingers through my hair. "I don't know."
"What's going on, Jenna. You look a little rattled."
"She just showed me a picture of Nate."
"Who?"
"Her old friend. My lover. My... my boyfriend."
He smiled. "You're letting this cunt run circles around you. Grow up and stop bowing down to every line she casts. Check out the evidence and I'll be in touch. We do the hit on Wednesday night."
"We?" My voice was nothing more than a whisper.
"Or would you rather I do it for you?"
"No." I shook my head as relief flooded my system. "Are you imply that she doesn't know Nate?"
"Oh, she knows Nathaniel well, but it’s not what you’re thinking."
"Then who is he?"
"No one you need to worry about. Just keep this to yourself. The less he knows... the better." Erik turned and walked out as I tried to catch my breath, to process my thoughts.
Was Nate one of her lovers? Her partner? What was I missing here, and even more so, how could I find out?
No. He wasn't involved. He couldn't be.
