Regardless, Regina is fueled by her quest for revenge against The King and will stop at nothing to kill her and take the evil pig’s place as true ruler of Vegas.
In order to take Regina out and not lose face The King secretly plants a mole within the Black Cherry Bombshells ranks and orchestrates for Regina to die in battle. Being the superior tactition Regina kills her proxy foe and solidifies her grip on the booze trade.
The King is enraged and fed up. She manipulates the mole, Megan, into becoming a reluctant assassin now that she’s gained the gang’s trust. Megan volunteers to return and wait for an oppertune time to kill Regina herself.
Megan is a former magician and escape artists. She’s a spy, not a murderer. After a failed attempt to coerce another BCB member into killing Regina for her, Megan becomes resigned to her fate as double agent.
