SIX YEARS LATER
“Piece of junk,” I mumble, slamming the door of my beat-up Ford
Focus with my foot. Juggling a bag of groceries in one hand and
cleaning supplies in the other, I make my way across the front lawn
and toward the front door which is slightly ajar.
The hairs on the back of my neck stand on end, and I swallow a gulp of
air. I definitely locked it this morning. I triple check it before I leave. As I
scan the street behind me, I notice a beautiful Black Porsche SUV with the
tinted windows.
My hands trembling, I place my bags on the ground, straining to hear
any noise from inside the house. Placing my hand on the door, I edge it
open a little further. If my asshole older brother has dragged his sorry ass
back here looking for money, then I swear to God I will kick him straight in
the nuts.
But at least if it’s him, I know what to expect. I know how to handle
him. I’ve been doing it since I was fifteen and our mom died. There’s no
way he’d be here in that fancy car though, so who the hell does it belong to?
Somebody looking for him, perhaps? Yet another person he’s screwed over.
My heart beats wildly as I stand on the porch. I knew I shouldn’t have
offered him a place to stay, but when he’d turned up at my doorstep four
weeks earlier, standing in the pouring rain with no coat, what the hell else
was I supposed to do?
He had nowhere else to go and he’s my brother after
all. So I offered him my sofa, and for a few weeks, it was actually nice
having him around. I wasn’t surprised at all two mornings ago to wake up
to find him gone with nothing but a note that said he’d be in touch when
he’s back on his feet. I was even less surprised to find all the money in my
purse and my emergency fund gone too. Asshole!
If they’re looking for Leo, then they’ve come to the wrong place.
Suddenly, I wish I’d taken my cousin’s advice of carrying my gun in my
purse. I push open the door and step into the house, leaving it open behind
me in case I need to run. The sound of voices carries down the hallway
from the kitchen. Men’s voices and they don’t sound happy. Passing the
stairs, I reach for the baseball bat I keep tucked behind the coat stand and
grip it tightly as I make my way to the back of the house.
Two men — large and bulky — are sitting at my kitchen table. Dressed
in black tailored suits that probably cost more than my entire year’s rent and
black shirts open at the collar. Both have dark hair and beards. Are they
brothers? They sure look similar.
Dark ink covers their hands and their necks. When they look up at me,
my heart almost gives out. They don’t move, but their presence is
suffocating. It’s visceral. These men… they don’t listen to reason or logic.
