Summary: It's not a party until someone's bleeding on the floor.



The Galavanti’s of New York hosted the black and white gala event of the year. The guest list was extensive and varied. Mob bosses mingled with models, enforcers drank with policemen, mercenaries blended with businessmen.

Neena Thurman feigned attentive while her present admirer consumed several shrimp puffs in between tales of lurid hostile takeovers. She scanned the crowd for her target, and her eyes caught a flash of red. Blood was splashed across a woman’s white dress like a piece of abstract art as she stared in shock. A neat circle in the side of her target’s head bled freely as he slumped to the ground.

The only problem Neena had was that she hadn’t been the one to shoot him. Therefore, she wouldn’t get paid. And now, she was going to have to make it someone else’s problem.

A waiter was screaming as he rushed from the room, just as the armed guards who were meant to prevent such a scene pulled their weapons, resulting in more panic. She watched the waiter duck around one guard, hit him with a drink tray, and then disappear in the crowd. Before he vanished, he turned to her and winked.

Wade. Of course. The man who was stalking her life.
