"Enjoying the scenery, De Luca?" I taunted my hands tightly gripping on the gun.
"You're late, Carter. I've been waiting for you for a long time... But yes, I am," he replied without looking at me as if he was sure that I couldn't hurt him, that even with the gun in my hands I was no match for him.

"Don't play dumb with me, De Luca. Did you stab him because I stabbed you?"
"I suppose," he shrugged, and my fists clenched in anger. At that moment I wanted nothing more than to burn him alive.
