A deadly surprise

A perilous deal

An excerpt

'You look at it as if you haven't seen cash money ever before, and it isn't that much.' His Excellency scolded his secretary. 'Close that case wills you?'

The attaché case was closed as His Excellency ordered.

'Alright call room service to fetch us lunch, I'm hungry.' His Excellency declared.

Lunch was brought up and they sat in the huge suite dining room around the big table to satiate their hunger and discuss the grim situation in Gaza.  The closed attaché case was kept on the table near His Excellency. While they had desert and coffee His Excellency turned a quizzical look at his secretary.

'What time is it?' His Excellency wondered. Hardly a friction of a second passed, and a loud explosion shook the Intercontinental eight floor.

A sharp acrid smell and a cloud of black smoke filled the space of suite's 814 dining room. His Excellency sprawled on his back with wide open eyes watched amazed the swarm of flying one hundred dollar bills swirling up above his head, like a huge flock of tiny birds ready to land, a friction of a second, before his soul left his body.
