Wick
Broadway Avenue, Upper West Side, Manhattan, New York…
It was a damn good thing her mother didn’t soft-soap life to Wick growing
up—to be clear, that was before she turned alcoholic, and everything went
apeshit. Hell, no. Her mother grew up in the time of baby boomers and
didn’t believe in such bullshit. Nope, to her—and Wick thanked the Lord
for that every day—it was important that her daughter fought her own
battles and didn’t wait for a knight in shining armor to save her.

“A girl in modern times should be her own heroine. Assertive, selfsufficient, and strong, so she could withstand a mega shark’s attack without
being torn to shreds,” was a famous saying she had drilled into Wick on a
daily basis.
A pity she couldn’t practice what she preached, but that was a sad
tale for another time. Wick resolutely shook off the resentment awakening
with the thought.
Yep, little Wick Bitch wasn’t your run-of-the-mill rescue dog with
her tail wagging, waiting around for approval from any man.
Okay, stop the bus, you say. Lemme explain. Her full name is
Wicked Witch, and her surname is Bitch. Don’t you dare laugh. Wick had
enough of that growing up. She wasn’t christened with that name. As a
baby, up to her tenth birthday, Wick was known as Willow Carter. Then, her
dad died after being stabbed by his latest lover and left in the street to bleed
out like a slaughtered pig. It broke her mother. Why she had changed her
daughter’s name, nobody knew for sure, except perhaps that it was a
decision she had made in a drunken and drug-induced stupor. It was the
worst birthday present any young girl could ask for… on the same day your
mother told you it was your fault your father’s eyes strayed. If you weren’t
born, she would still have had the perfect body, and he wouldn’t have lusted
after other sluts. It was also the last birthday Wick ever celebrated.
Okay, enough distractions. Back to the story.
With narrowed eyes, Wick studied the man who had just walked
through the swivel door of the majestic JCP Corporation building in
Manhattan into the darkness of the night. What businessman worked until
eleven at night? Yeah, you got it—a corrupt one. With long strides, he
headed to the black Bugatti Chiron super sports car she’d been admiring
earlier. He moved with confidence, which was to be expected since he was
tall and athletic. This was viscerally a man who knew what he was doing,
except in her mind’s eye, his attitude seemed overdone. The saying, ‘a wolf
in sheep’s clothing’ came to mind. She shook her head.
