The cold voice that spoke behind Rachel sent cold shivers down her spine, and the pistol that pressed against the back of her head made her skin crawl with goosebumps.
Then—*bang!*—the gunshot sounded after the trigger was pulled.
Meanwhile, Rachel twisted her head sharply to the left, just in time for the bullet to hiss past her ear instead of her skull.
Before the man could fire again, Rachel spun, grabbed his wrist, and snatched the pistol right out of his hand like it was nothing.
In a blink, the gun was pointing back at him.
The young man standing in front of her was Jeremy "the Scorpion."
He was the ruthless gangster who ran La Vipera's Den for Alessandro Morano, the son of Leonardo Morano, head of the Vulturis Syndicate.
Rachel's voice was icy cold as she pressed the pistol against his chest and said, "Now it's you who's going to die—unless you tell me where the hell Josie is."
