Eros
Cara screams as Conti hits the floor with a grunt.
My gun's in my hand before I can think about it. I hold it aimed at his face, my finger on the trigger, and one wrong move will end this wretched bastard's life.
I want to do it. I can already feel the pleasure of watching this abusive s**t-stain's blood spread across his hardwood floor. I came here in good faith and tried to do this without violence, but this man doesn't seem interested in saving his own life.
"Eros," Cara says and her hand is on my arm. "Eros, please. There are people around."
I blink rapidly, blood rushing through my ears, and come back to myself. Rage threatens to push me into something I'll regret. Slowly, I lower the weapon as Conti scuttles backwards and climbs to his feet, bleeding from a split lip.
