He lifts a brow as he buttons the shirt up. “Last one of what?”
“The last time I’ll be dealing,” I tell him.
He lets out a slow laugh that sends a chill through my body. “No, it’s not.”
Is he being serious right now?
“You don’t just get to quit this, man,” he continues. “I brought you into this—vouched for you. And you don’t get to quit until I say you do. And if you try to, there will be consequences. Not just from me, but from my boss. When you agreed to my job offer, you agreed to stay in this until we let you go. Well, unless you don’t mind being thrown into a lake with bricks tied to your feet.” He turns around and goes into the kitchen to grab a beer from the fridge.
I look at Ellis, hoping he’ll offer me some reassurance that Holden was just messing with me. But he looks away and hurries and busies himself with his computer.
And I’m left silently dealing with the reality of my bad decisions.
That I am stuck here.
Stuck in a place I don’t want to be.
And I have no idea how to get out of it.
