Chapter 32: Someone Had to Pay

Victor Sorkin’s grey eyes narrowed as he listened to Slater’s story for perhaps the fifth time since Slater and Wilcox had returned to the compound without his pet. To the man’s credit, his story never wavered. He was entirely certain about the timeline of events from beginning to end.

“Tell me, Mr. Smith,” he’d purred, rolling his eyes at the ludicrous moniker, “how did you enjoy my pet?”

“She was fine,” the man had replied. “But I could see why you needed a break from all the talking. The only time she shut up was when my cock was in her mouth.”

Victor had frowned. “She talked too much?”

“I now know more about reality television than I ever wanted to know. But she was sweet, and she gave great head, so…” The man had trailed off. “I was sorry your men had to pick her up early. I was looking forward to another go.”
