The Present Deal (Riley's Holiday Collections)

Readers say: "Well played, Ms. Murphy. You are a master storyteller!"

She was stunning. Wrapped up tightly like the best kind of gift.
But there was a reason she came to me this way.
Spoke to me this way.
Taunted me this way.
Her watchful gaze was steady, so I had to ask, â‚¬Å“Tell me, Ms. Crawford. Is there a point to this visit, or did you insist on meeting with me today in order to save my soul?â‚¬Â
â‚¬Å“Tough to do that when you donâ‚¬t have one.â‚¬Â
The silence that followed that statement got adrenaline coursing through me. I recognized very clearly why my heart rate was picking up speed. Sheâ‚¬d verbally slapped me in the face and I wanted to verbally slap her right back. I narrowed my eyes and spoke slowly. Softly. Carefully. â‚¬Å“If you believed that, then you shouldnâ‚¬t have said it. A man with no soul is capable of doing the unthinkable. â‚¬Å“Is that what you want, Ms. Crawford? Me to do the unthinkable to you?â‚¬Â
â‚¬Å“Maybeâ‚¬Â¦for a price.â‚¬Â
And there it was. The present she wanted to give me. Now the only question that remained, was why?
â‚¬Å“Iâ‚¬m listeningâ‚¬Â¦â‚¬Â
