“Are you wondering what it would feel like?” he says in his smooth, low

voice.

I grip the handle so hard that it bites into my palm.

“You’re wondering if you could do it quick enough to surprise me. Could

you cut me deep enough that I couldn’t fight back? If you got me in the right

place, one slash would be enough …”

I shake my head so vigorously that it bumps against the stone wall.

“No. I wasn’t thinking that.”

Cole closes his hand over mine again, but this time he’s forcing me to grip

the razor instead of a showerhead. Forcing me to brandish it between us. He

looks up into my face, his dark eyes locked on mine.

“When the time comes … don’t hesitate. You’re never going to be the

biggest or the strongest in the fight. You have to be the most ruthless. You’ll

only get one cut, so make it count.”

Who does he imagine I’m going to be fighting?

Shaw … or him?

I twist my wrist away from Cole, dropping the razor on the shower floor.

“I told you—I’m not going to hurt anyone.”

Cole ignores the razor, only looking at me.

“Oh really? And what do you plan to do about Shaw, then?”

“I don’t know,” I say through gritted teeth. “Find some evidence. Get his ass

tossed in jail where he belongs.”

Cole makes a contemptuous sound that hits me worse than a slap.

“You’re not going to find evidence. You go near Shaw without me right next

to you, and all you’ll find is your head on a beach.”

I glare at him. “You want me to think there’s only one way this can end.”

“No. There’s two ways: Shaw dies, or we do.”
