Title "I take no joy in this‚ and I promise Emily will die quickly‚ and painlessly. Take comfort in that." "One can only be so comforted with a gun pointed at his head‚ cabrón." wheezed Samuel. The man tilted his head at that. Very few who were unfortunate enough to cross paths with him spoke to him in such a matter‚ let alone were allowed the opportunity to speak at all.
