Pada awalnya, itu bukan masalah besar. Hanya informasi tentang kematian mendatang kandang cocok dan sesuatu tentang sponsor berurusan bahwa Jax tampak seperti dia akan memiliki orgasme, tapi kemudian subjek berubah."Manusia, hari ini telah bercinta sakit," Brock berkata, tip botol kembali dan minuman. "Salah satu dari gadis-gadis yang bekerja di kantor di klub mana saya berlatih tidak bekerja kemarin. Pelatih Simmons mengatakan dia tidak ada panggilan, tidak menunjukkan tapi... " Ia menggelengkan kepala, mata cokelat gelap berkilauan dengan kemarahan. "Beberapa keledai sakit mendapat Kuasai nya."Aku berhenti, mencengkeram kain saya menggunakan untuk usap bawah botol minuman keras akhir yang lebih tinggi pada layar. JAX mengokang kepalanya ke samping. "Apa yang terjadi?""Beberapa keparat masuk ke apartemen. Messed up nya cukup parah, dari apa yang aku dengar." Tangan kosong ditutup ke dalam kepalan tangan berbahaya. "Man, saya tidak bisa bahkan membungkus kepalaku di bagaimana seorang bisa melukai laki-laki. Hanya tidak mengerti itu.""Yesus." JAX menggelengkan kepala. "Ini adalah apa, insiden ketiga dalam sebulan atau lebih?""Ada gadis itu yang menghilang di awal musim panas." Aku berjalan ke mana mereka, menjatuhkan kain di meja. "Saya pikir namanya adalah Shelly atau sesuatu seperti itu."Brock mengangguk. "Aku tidak seorang polisi. Aku tidak seorang psikolog, tapi kedengarannya seperti kami mendapat psiko di sini."I folded my arms against the shiver that danced up my spine. My thoughts wandered to the strange things in my house, and I stiffened. It sounded crazy to even think what was happening there had anything to do with these poor girls. Plus it didn’t make sense. How would anyone get in my house to do those things without me knowing about it? But still, I had to ask. “Do you know if the girls were stalked or anything? Like any warnings?”“I haven’t heard,” Jax answered, angling his body toward mine. He arched a brow. “I bet Reece would know though.”Oh! Like a kick in the stomach, those words twisted up my insides. I didn’t know how to respond to that. Last Jax knew, which was just from a few days ago, things were on the up and up between Reece and me. Now, I wasn’t so sure.“I’ll tell you what, though. Whoever this guy is, he’s a dead man.” Brock’s lips curved into a smirk. “The girl who works in our office. She’s Isaiah’s cousin.”“Holy shit,” muttered Jax.My sentiments exactly. Isaiah was sort of infamous around these parts. To outsiders, he appeared like a legit businessman, but all the locals, including the police, knew he was much more than that. He ran Philadelphia and all the surrounding towns and cities. To put it simply, he was not a man to mess with, and he was smart about his under-the-table dealings, because law enforcement could never pin anything on him.It was Isaiah who Calla’s mom had stolen drugs from, to the tune of millions of dollars’ worth of heroin. Because of how far reaching and powerful Isaiah was, Calla’s mom wasn’t even living in this time zone anymore. The only way for her to stay alive was to disappear.But Isaiah had a code of ethics. One of his boys—Mack—had gone after Calla since he was the one who was supposed to be handling her mother. Isaiah hadn’t been cool with that since Calla was innocent in all of this. No one could prove it, but when Mack’s body was found on a back road with a bullet in his head, everyone knew that had Isaiah written all over it.Even though his boys hung out in here, I’d only seen Isaiah a few times. Once every blue moon, he strolled into Mona’s, and he always left amazing tips.“Yep. So not only are the police looking for this fucker, so will Isaiah’s boys, and this guy better hope the police find him first or the inside of a trunk is the last thing he’s ever gonna see.” Brock leaned back, crossing massive arms across his broad chest. One shoulder rose. “Then again, I kind of hope Isaiah does find him first.”Might make me a bad person but I sort of hoped the same thing.Brock hung out to the end of the shift and the boys walked me out to my car. There was still no sign of Reece, not a single missed call or text. The hurting I’d been carrying with me during the twenty-four hours turned to bitter-tasting panic.Before everything had gone to shit Tuesday morning, he’d told me he wanted to have lunch and when he left, he said we were okay and that he would call. A tiny part of me was holding out for Thursday afternoon.
Reece would call. We would have lunch. He wasn’t a dick. Never had been, so I knew he wouldn’t bail on me like that.
The street outside the Victorian was quiet and there was a chill in the night air as I walked up the pathway to the porch. I could almost feel autumn, and it wasn’t too far away. After such a long and hot summer, I couldn’t wait for pumpkin spice and mums.
Opening the door, I stepped inside my dark apartment and closed the door behind me. I don’t know why, but as soon as the lock clicked into place, goose bumps raced over my flesh. Icy fingers trailed down my spine, and I froze as I stared in the dark recesses of my apartment.
