Now, there’s only one thing I can do if I want to stay alive. 𝘙𝘶𝘯. 𝗧𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗿 I like to think I help balance the scales of good and evil, one payday at a time. No messy red tape. No long, drawn out legal proceedings. Just me, my mark, and a mountain of sins. Some might ask who I was to play judge and jury about another man’s worth. I would say, piss off. No one asked you. Most of my targets are just another day’s work, but her? She’s different. I feel an unrelenting need to lay my eyes on all of her coveted secrets. To learn the extent of her corruption and see how it compares to my own. She thinks she can escape me. I’ll never let her go.
