was good. He leaned back against the bark of the tree, not really noticing the rough bark along his neck. All he cared about was if his plan was working. He’d worked long and hard to get where he was right at this moment and he wasn’t giving up or giving in.
Levi Silvers had discredited him once, a long time ago and he never forgot it. It was the one and only time he ever let that happen. He lost everything and he swore then, that he would never lose it all again. But he had also learned from that mistake. He vowed, then and there that he would get his revenge. And over the years, he had.
He had never been a stupid man. He’d gotten to know things about each of the members on the board of the SANG group, and he filed that information in the vault of his mind. It hadn’t been easy but nothing worthwhile was ever easy. Everyone had at least one secret they didn’t want the rest of the world to know, the trick was finding that one secret among so many. It had taken him years to rebuild what Levi did to him but determination and the desire to kill allowed him to build back up what he once had. He also started a side business which he knew was against the rules for the men he worked for. He vowed to never get caught again, or ever lose everything he worked for.
He worked under Samuel Niger primarily, he didn’t personally like the man, but the group had him assigned to the jerk, now all he had to do to get the number one spot was to eliminate Damen Cole and take out the girl. Cole was the only man who knew more than he did with his years and experience. Jase knew once he killed Damen, the group would rely on him, the way they did Damen.
He would use the secrets of these men to empower his position even stronger. Blackmail the partners into keeping him on and paying him more money than ever before. His deadbeat dad always told him to find the secrets of an enemy or a friend even and you would be the one who had all the power.
Jase smiled with glee. Now, he held all the power on the SANG Group. The four partners just didn’t know it yet.
Damen Cole looked through the lenses of his night vision binoculars. They were custom made just to his instructions. Just like the special M82 w/night vision scope rifle slung across his back. He was a patient man and that patience had paid off for him over the years. Every job he took for the SANG Group, he went out of his way and had done his best to bring about the results the group wanted. But each job was also a learning experience for him. Human nature being a fickle bitch as it had very often, threw him for a loop. Especially when the result wasn’t what one thought it should be. He’d learned never to leave a man with any other option as you backed them into a corner that they could never leave. Desperate men do desperate things even if those things wouldn’t make any sense to you.
Damen watched his target. Jase surprised him by taking that shot earlier. He didn’t think he’d actually do it. He knew Jase would never complete the original mission of getting the girl back to Levi alive. He already knew Levi had sent Jase here to eliminate him but Levi needed the girl alive or he himself would be dead soon.
Damen knew Levi had someone watching him over the last few weeks. He even noticed this tail but he never let on. Levi must have sensed his growing dissatisfaction for his job. Damen had come to a realization after all these years, he’d finally had enough and he was not about to let Jase have his way. The girl would live this time.
He could hear the shuffling of the MC as they searched the wooded area for the shooter but they would never find him. Jase was well trained to keep his hidden position until things settled down. Damen recalled how he taught him well to hide in plain sight. Jase had indeed, taken everything he was taught and used it to his own advantage. Damen knew he wouldn’t move for a while.
But Jase seemed to not notice that he wasn’t
