Chapter five
Across the water in Port Royal, sat two men. One was tall and slender while the other was quite stocky in build, the slender one reached into a long black mole skin coat and pulled out a small broach, the oval rim was made of what was unmistakably gold, and in the center was a large crystal.
"How many?" he whispered, while placing the broach on the heavily worn table.
The other man stroked his short beard thoughtfully, then off hand he said in a soft sleek voice
"Ten"
The other man looked outraged, "its worth more than ten and you know it, and this is out of only four pieces!" he hissed angrily. The other man still seemed laid back
"Okay, twenty…but that's as high as I'm going"
The thin man's lips twisted as though he were sucking a lemon, then reluctantly took the offered twenty pieces of silver.
Laughing the buyer stood up tossing the silver up into the air and catching it then walked out followed closely by two lackeys. As the thin man left the tavern a few minutes later he felt someone grab his arms and he was spun around to face his business partner
"I've just thought of another business deal for you Seamus" he pulled out an elegant pistol and aimed it for the center of his forehead "I think you'll agree it's the best way of going about things" there was a click as the gun cocked and then a bang as Seamus' head was blown up, the other man's face twisted into a sadistic grin, as he removed the velvet pouch and strolled down the dark alleyway leading from the tavern…and then into the night, leaving no-other trace except the body.
