Garrett
The decision is simple. Mountford wronged me—he tried to humiliate me
and poach my suppliers; tried to swoop in on my territory. I know the man
is a sniveling wretch, but this is an insult I cannot allow.
I could bankrupt him, of course. Take his mansion; his staff; his
businesses. His offshore accounts and gaudy fleet of sports cars. If
anything, I’d be doing the man a favor—for an art dealer, he has terrible
taste.
But no. Those are just possessions, things. He’d make more money to
replace what I took; he’d lean on his shady partners to help him back up to
the top.
If I ruin him that way, it will be temporary. Unsatisfying. A sugar hit
followed by an inevitable slump.
And I want to ruin him. I want him gutted and hollow; I want him to
lay awake in his bed at night, sweating and trembling at the horror of what
I’ve done. I want him to know, down to his wretched bones, that he brought
it on himself.
That he roused me. He poked the beast. Angered the Fox.
And he paid the price.
Even now, the memory of his insolence makes my teeth clench. My
pulse hammers in my throat, violence raging in my chest. To an outside
observer, I would appear completely calm—bored, even.
Inside, I’m a maelstrom. And I will have my vengeance.
So if not his ugly sports cars, then what? It’s simple, really. There is
only one thing in this whole universe which Mountford prizes above all
else.
His daughter, Lily. The prize of the city. A famed beauty, and the muse
of fashion photographers everywhere. Oh, Mountford trots her out like a
pedigree poodle, grinning for the cameras. His smug face says it all: “You
like her, huh? She’s mine, mine, mine.”
As if her famed beauty is from him, with his sunken eyes and thinning
silver hair. Pathetic old fool. Well, there’s nothing else for it. I lean back in
my desk chair, drumming my fingers on the mahogany wood, then gust out
a sigh and pound her name out on my keyboard. A few clicks, and there she
is: Lily Mountford.
Soon to become collateral damage.
I enlarge her photo, scrolling through the street fashion shots. She’s a
natural in front of the camera—all creamy skin and soft, caramel waves. I
twist my mouth, considering her, but…
Nothing. I feel nothing.
I get more aroused looking at the black market paintings in my private
gallery.
No matter. I’m not going to hurt her, after all. She will be my wife only
in name. A possession to dangle over her father’s head, lest he get ideas
above his station again. I scroll through Lily’s information, already bored,
and my eyes snag on one detail.
