Chapter 40: Mack

I left the depot just before six. Lurkin was running a distribution network around Edinburgh and he had his people around the area, watching and letting him know if the police came sniffing around. I was heading straight to my car when I saw Ellie with some tattooed youngster on the street. It looked like she was just about to get mugged. I lost my head. Anger took over my body and I was ready to strangle him.

I had no idea what on earth she was doing here, but then she mentioned that she saw me and Lurkin here. She was relentless, determined to carry on investigating when I clearly told her to stay away. Fuck, now I had no choice but to explain myself to her.

"You won't dare to carry me inside the hotel. I'll tell them that you kidnapped me."
