The judge was a total bitch. If she opened her mouth—she was well connected. Walters had made that very clear. Between her and Giavonna—he was screwed. He was truly screwed.

His only hope was to make a run for it. Get out of town before Addy or any other fucking loser with the TSP found him. He needed a way to do that.

Scenarios ran through his head. None of them good.

He was going to lose everything. Because of Giavonna Hiller, and that prick Hudson Hanan.

Well, Hanan should lose, too. It was only fair.

And…Jason had the woman Hanan loved.

It was time Jason taught Hanan a lesson.

But first, he had to get rid of that bitch judge. Jason slammed his arm out—she was a short woman. His elbow caught her in the face far too easily. She sprawled—landing hard on her desk chair and fell almost limp to the floor.

So damned easy to take her out.

Giavonna screamed.

Jason turned on her. “I’m so sick and tired of women like you trying to fuck up my life. You’ve screwed up everything.”

She scrambled back. Away from him.

He liked how that felt. The power.

He had Giavonna trapped now.
