Well, that was probably pretty accurate.
“I spoke to my people, and they want Von handled. That comes right from the head of the military. The General of the Joint Chief of Staff has put a bounty on the man’s head.”
Well, that had their attention.
“How much?” Zayn asked. “Asking for a friend who likes to get paid to do dirty deeds. He doesn’t do them dirt cheap.”
She read the money on the screen to them.
“Fifty-one million, seven hundred and ninety-two thousand, and three dollars,” she said. “Four dollars,” she added, after it changed. “Five dollars.”
They got the hint.
They were getting the crypto when they got the asshole handled.
Well, they would take it.
That was the biggest payout yet, and they liked making sure the coffers were filled.
“Anyway, find Von, the key, and that piggy bank is yours. That should set you up in reclining massage chairs for a while.”
Yes, yes, it would.
“Are you up for it?” she asked, giving them the choice, but knowing they were pissed that Von got away. That would be motivation enough.
The Hunters all looked at each other, and silently, they made a decision for the collective.
“When he comes back, we’ll move on him,” Maura said.
She was to the point.
“Dead. One shot, no trace. If necessary, we might have to take them all out.”
Maura was curious.
“How many run it?”
Merry showed them the people on the board atThe BlackStone Group.”
There were three.
Two men, and a woman.
“There are your targets. If they retaliate, and they likely will, because the military is cuttingBlackStoneoff thanks to this, be ready for the blowback. You have my permission to play dirty, and if you need help, there are always Spiders.”
They would keep that in mind.
From where she sat, Stella was curious.
As she breast fed, the baby covered, she went there.
“Is Gamble okay?” she asked. “They told me he was beat to hell and back.”
She nodded.
“He has a concussion and is in the hospital until tomorrow morning. I’m picking him up then, and he’s going to take a little trip to try out his new identity.”
They all got quiet.
