THREE MONTHS AGO
You don’t understand what you’re getting involved with,” the woman
said as she backed away from the man with the knife.
“I need your token,” he spoke just above a whisper so she wouldn’t
recognize his voice.
She shook her head. “You’re making a huge mistake. They won’t let
you get away with it.” Her hand closed around the railing; her knuckles
bone-white in the gloom.

He inched closer. His hand, holding a nine-millimeter with a suppressor,
was steady. His plan was unfolding as he’d planned. It was much easier
than he thought it would be. She was staring at him, studying him. Trying to
memorize every detail, he was sure. It didn’t matter. The black hoodie he
was wearing masked his features. He knew he seemed familiar to her, but
she wouldn’t be able to place him. Already he could tell there was no
recognition in her eyes. The wind blew her dress around her legs, and she
stumbled a bit as she tried to back up.
“Give me your token, or you die,” he rasped.
She licked her lips. “You really have no idea what kind of trouble
you’re asking for. This is way more than anything you can imagine.”

the Society rules. “You’re already a member.”
He chuckled. “Of a sort.” Oh, the irony of it all.
“You’re getting this for someone else.”
“You talk too much, Angel,” he ground out. “Token. Now.”
“I-I don’t—”
“Don’t even try it. Everyone knows you never leave home without it.
It’s the reason I chose you. I don’t have to go looking for the token.” He
waved the gun in front of her nose and her eyes widened. A burst of
triumph flitted through him. “Last chance.”
Her reaction told him she’d read the situation correctly. He was serious.
Her hands shook as she pulled her token out of her bra. “Archer has extra
tokens, and he can choose who to give them to. When I get back in, I’m
coming for you. I’ll tell everyone what you’ve done.”
He reached out and snatched the token out of her hand. Damn. She was
right. He’d forgotten the loophole that allowed Archer to add members
whenever it suited him. He paused for a second. He’d always planned on
killing her. No point in leaving any witness alive but now he real
