The Fangs of Midas: the only thing more rotten than this criminal bunch was Julia’s luck. Why did she have to schedule an appointment at the bank on the exact day those goons decided to rob it? She sighed into the rag jammed into her mouth… Because of course out of all the people there they had to pick her as a hostage too. “Xander, Bruin.” The imposing King Midas, leader of these gangsters, growled orders to his henchman. “Get some of the gold bars in the van as well and head out. I can hear the law has arriving outside.”
“Hmph. About time they reacted to the silent alarm.” He scoffed to himself before turning to his remaining accomplice. “Silver, get the getaway car ready and make room in the trunk.” The artic wolf nodded and ran off, leaving King and his captive as the last people in the vault. Julia squeaked through her gag when the much larger panther suddenly grabbed her and started hauling her off with terrifying ease, as if she was just an old ragdoll. “Quiet.” The Panther King snarled. “You’re our insurance policy. Behave, and we’ll drop you off somewhere the cops can find you. Cause trouble for us…”
Midas chuckled ominously. “We have ways to make a profit off of you…”
