“Hey, it’s me,” I said as soon as it connected. “I need your help with something.”
I swear to God, Dominic and I would be doing this dance again, and I’m going to do it better.
Racing against time, I headed into my office at dawn. Since midnight, I’d been relaying diversion orders to set up a trap and gain the upper hand. At this point, I couldn’t trust anyone inside the fold, so I had to bring in an ace from the outside.
Not long after I sat down at my computer, an encrypted video call came through. I quickly logged in the password and answered.
“Heya, darling! Looks like you’ve gotten yourself caught in a tricky snare. Getting out won’t be easy,” he greeted me.
This guy was a notorious hacker in the business—no one had ever tracked him down or figured out his background. He always hid behind a silly mask, and having his contact was pure luck. Although he looked quite untrustworthy, he would never turn on a client and risk a bad reputation.
“What’ve you got for me, Fox?”
“Everything, darling. Everything, for the right price.”
I frowned. I couldn’t see his face, but I knew he had a smug smile behind that mask.
“I’m in a bind here, Fox. Name your price later. Spill.”
