Most Wanted - A Fantasy Romance Novel (The Shadow Blade Series) - Plot & Excerpts
The wood splintered loudly. ‘Woops,’ she said. Jimmy was sitting in his chair, the cigar hanging off his bottom lip like a pregnant slug. He stared at the head for a moment, at the mouth stretched wide and the razor sharp fangs still glinting with droplets of blood, before glancing up at Ariel. She saw his lips purse in irritation. She guessed she’d just cost him a fortune and tried hard not to smile. She knew better than to rub it in. ‘You laid the odds,’ she said, shrugging. Already she was calculating how much she had made, not just from the bounty, but from the bet she’d laid. Jimmy’s eyes glinted like a reptile’s and he stared at her unblinking. Ariel took a deep breath and straightened her shoulders. ‘I killed him fair and square,’ she said. Jimmy wouldn’t shaft her would he? Behind her she sensed Vin Diesel lurking in the doorway. Jimmy glowered at her for a beat longer, before finally nodded over her shoulder. ‘Pay her,’ he spat. Ariel bit her lips together as Vin headed over to the safe and yanked open the thick steel door.
