• He laughs, sharp and easy. “You forget who I am. Lust has control of you. Learn to get a grip.” A finger lifts, pointing straight at me. “Bring me the vial or your DNA turns up on those Rossi Cartel bodies. Maybe a few more corpses too. Kids. Babies.
• Maybe a stray puppy beaten to death. Maybe I leak the evidence I built on your whole operation. You go down and I tell the Rossi Cartel where you are being held. You would not last six minutes, Diablo.”
