I went independent about half a year ago. Best decision of my life.
In my career--like most, I'd guess--there are a lot of drawbacks to working for yourself. The working hours, for one; it's all good and well to say that you get to make your own hours when you're your own boss, but the reality is that those hours are probably going to be a lot longer now that you're trying to handle everything on your own.
Used to be that I only really had to worry about going in and grabbing the leverage at the start of a job, and then I was mostly the babysitter, sitting around until the payment came in. But these days, I gotta be a jack-of-all-trades: I'm the one going out and finding the opportunities, I'm the one identifying holes in some rich fuck's private security schedule.
I'm the one chloroforming the leverage and I'm also the one driving the getaway car to the safe-house that I, personally, scoped out ahead of time.
I'm the one writing the ransom notes and the one arranging the drop and setting up a way to get the hell out of dodge after the trade because no matter how many times you tell people not to call the cops, they always call the cops.
So it's easy enough to say I can work around my schedule, but really--when I'm on a job--it's the other way around; I gotta schedule around my work.
There's more risk, too, of course. No back-up, nobody else to tail security while I'm grabbing the leverage, no second pair of eyes on the perimeter. But I guess that doesn't bother me too much; I've never liked relying on other people. I feel better knowing I'm on my own from the start, rather than having it come as a nasty surprise.
And the benefits are pretty significant. Especially not having to split the payout.
The first job I did on my own was a bit of a test run: just a small take, thirty thousand for some rich guy's spoiled grandson. The grandson was a pain in the ass, but the job went well enough otherwise, and thirty thousand--when you're not splitting it with three or four other people--lasts long enough that I could plan something bigger.
This job, if I pull it off, should net me enough that I won't have to lift a finger for at least a year. Two, if I'm careful with my spending.
The other benefit, of course, is that nobody but me needs to approve of how I entertain myself when I'm babysitting.
With the grandson, I'd mostly just pissed him off for fun. I sat him in front of a TV playing a twenty-four-hour Barney the Dinosaur marathon and talked to him like I thought he was five years old instead of fifteen. By the end of the job, though, that had mostly lost interest for me, and he'd figured out how to piss me off, too. I ended up just locking him in the bathroom for the last twenty-four hours so we didn't have to look at each other.
This time, though--this time I'm gonna have some real fun.
The leverage for this job is Maria Godiva Pierce, third wife of Lt. Jonathan Pierce. Lt. Pierce retired with honors from the army and went straight on to found one of the most lucrative arms manufacturing businesses in the country.
Maria's about half his age, which still puts her in her mid-thirties, but she's got the tight body and bleach-blond hair of a career trophy wife.
She's also got a reputation for scandal and sex tapes. She doesn't even look especially shocked to wake up handcuffed to a bed, though she gives me a fuzzy kind of look that says she doesn't remember me, and probably doesn't remember being chloroformed.
"Who, uhh," she slurs out, rattling one wrist weakly in the restraints. Still not fully with it. "Where...am I?"
"Sleepover party," I inform her. "You can call me Benny. I'm your new best friend for the next...oh...let's say the next week. Assuming your husband gets his shit together in a timely fashion."
She squints at me in confusion for several long seconds, then closes her eyes again and returns to unconsciousness.
I shrug and turn my attention back to my laptop, putting the final touches on a ransom note that'll be delivered anonymously, both electronically and physically, to Lt. Pierce.
Half an hour later, Maria wakes up properly, and that's when she starts throwing a tantrum.
***
I give Mrs. Pierce about an hour to wear herself out with kicking, screaming, trying to break the handcuffs, all the usual bullshit.
Then I sit her up on the bed--she hisses at me like a cat when I touch her, which makes me laugh--and set up a video camera on a tripod, pointed at her. I stand behind the tripod and mute the mic while I speak.
"Go ahead and talk to the camera, sweetheart. Tell your husband that as long as he follows the instructions, he'll get you back safe and sound."
"Fuck you," she spits. I un-mute in the middle of the second word, but anyone watching the video will probably be able to fill in the blanks from the shape of her mouth and the look on her face. "My husband's a retired lieutenant of the United States Armed Forces. When he tracks you down, he'll turn you into fucking hamburger meat."
I shrug and mute again. "Good enough." I just need proof of life; all the important information is in the note that'll be going with the video. "Now, I don't need to send that out for another hour or so, so--front hole or back?"
"Excuse me?" she demands, and then hisses when I turn off the camera and approach the bed. "Don't you fucking dare--"
"I think I'm being a pretty nice guy here, letting you pick," I tell her, and catch her by the ankle when she tries to kick me in the face. "Come on now, Maria, it doesn't have to be like that. I'm not a meanie, I'm not gonna hurt you. Am I fucking the front or the back?"
"Neither, you low-life, ugly-ass--" she tries to kick me again, then shrieks in anger when I easily wrangle both her legs, folding them in towards her stomach and dragging her across the bed so she's lying down again. She's wearing a skirt, which is pretty damned convenient, since folding her legs up like that just exposes her skimpy little g-string.
I tug it to one side--she screeches at me again--and give her a good look-over. She's waxed Brazilian-style, which I should've known to expect, but it's still interesting. Kind of makes it feel like I'm playing with a professional, like a porn star in real life. No obvious signs of disease, though I'm still not taking any risks; I stocked up plenty of condoms.
"Not looking too eager there, Mrs. Pierce," I remark, patting two fingers against the plump, dry lips of her cunt. "So I guess, if you're leaving the choice up to me, I'll go in the back way, since we're gonna need lube either way."
"My husband will murder you--!"
"Nah. That actor you fucked last year is still walking around, isn't he?" I point out, leaning my weight on her to keep her folded up while I reach over and rummage around in the bedside table drawer, pulling out a condom and a bottle of lube.
"That--you have no right to touch me!"
