horrifying collection of thin blades and other sharp objects she couldn’t even identify. Oh God, I’m going to die! she thought. She’d watched enough HBO to know that now she’d seen her assailant’s face and could identify him, he would surely kill her once he was done with the torture he was about to inflict on her.
    “You’re going to kill me!” she wailed again as she started to hyperventilate. “Oh God, oh God, oh God…”

    By the time Eitan took two steps back toward her, the woman was already gasping for air. She was in a full blown panic, clearly terrified by his display. That, at least, ruled out her being a professional spy, didn’t it? When he’d contacted his boss, Hays, he was told Sofia Boon was to be treated as Donovan’s accomplice and that he was to use extreme prejudice to get the information they needed out of her. He hadn’t seen anyone fake a panic attack like this, but maybe she was just new to this game. Hays must have had some information on Sofia if he was that confident about her connection to their mark. If Donovan had seduced her into working with him, Eitan highly doubted the bastard would’ve been honest about the possibilities of torture should she get caught. He pulled her head forward so he could look straight into her eyes and spoke calmly.
    “I am not going to kill you, Sofia. If you answer my questions truthfully, I have an injection that will erase the memory of your time with me and you will go on living your life like this never happened,” he said slowly, watching her eyes blink and her breathing finally start to even out. “Do you understand me?”
    When he released her head and took a step back, she was softly gasping, tears still falling down her face.
    “Are you going to hurt me?” she finally asked, her breathing once again quickening when she looked back toward the tools on the counter.
    Eitan sighed and rolled his tool kit back up. There was just no way this woman was a criminal. He needed to talk to Hays and find out what the hell was going on, but maybe he could bluff a little and get some info out of her. “As long as you tell me everything I need then I won’t need to hurt you, Sofia…but I will if I have to, so keep that in mind if you try to deceive me in any way.”
    “Why would I deceive you? I don’t even know what you want!” she sobbed. “Please just let me go.”
    “Where is the man you know as Carl Roberts, Sofia?” her captor asked as he placed a chair in front of her and sat down.
    “I have no idea! Carl was supposed to have dinner at my place tonight and he didn’t show up at seven. That’s why I knocked on his door,” she said once again, then her eyes went even larger. “Oh my God, I left the oven on when I walked over there. The building is probably on fire by now!”
    “I turned off the oven when I went to search your apartment after you passed out.”
    Eitan studied her closely. She was genuinely relieved she didn’t have to worry about setting the building ablaze. Would a criminal worry about others living in her apartment building? None that he’d ever met would.
    “Oh, thank God,” she answered and then looked back at him with narrowed eyes. “Why did you search my apartment?”
    “To make certain I knew who you were before I began questioning you, and to make sure no one would notice that you’re missing for quite some time,” he answered ominously.
    Eitan could see the wheels turning in her head, and she was most likely thinking about how long it would take for someone to notice she was missing. Most people did, after all, once they’d been abducted, and from the information he’d managed to grab out of her office and her computer, things weren’t looking very good for Miss Boon. Seems he had all the time in the world to make her crack.

    Over and over again the man asked the same questions and Sofia gave him the exact same answers. She
