“HANK, GOD DAMNIT,” bellowed Sterling Sweeney. “Get your ass in my
office.”
Lucy, Hank’s mom, cast her son a frantic wave to obey his father. Every
fiber in his body wanted to walk out and close the door to Glacier Crest
Ranch.
His dad ruled everything as far as the eye could see.
He shook his head as he marched past his mom. He thunked his boots
against the hardwood floor on the second story of the lodge that the town
folks called Sweeney mansion. Not an hour after he’d beat Denny Geone’s
Trans Am with his Camaro on the River Front Road, the fucking loser had
run to his daddy, whining about losing his title.
Hank stepped inside his dad’s office. The musty smell of cigar smoke
permeated the walls, the leather furniture, and the curtains covering the floorto-ceiling windows. The smell nauseated him.
He only stepped into his father’s office if he’d gotten in trouble, and his
dad wanted to hand out his punishment.
Rarely had his dad called him there to congratulate him or give him a
bigger allowance for all the shit he was required to do for the family.
His dad poured whiskey into a tumbler and glared at Hank. “Give me the
Geone boy’s title to his car.”
He stiffened his spine. As long as he was alive, his dad always drank four
fingers of whiskey in two swallows when his temper brewed.
“Denny knew the deal. I won fair and square.” He widened his stance.
“You can tell his dad to fuck—”
“God damnit, give me the title, or I’ll drag your ass down there, and you
can hand it back yourself.” His dad slammed his empty tumbler on the desk
in a show of temper he only released on Hank.
Hank slipped his hand into his back pocket, retrieved the folded piece of
paper with the rights to the Trans Am, and flung the vehicle title on the desk.
He then stormed out of the office. It was useless to argue against Sterling
Sweeney unless he wanted to sport a black eye or broken ribs tomorrow. His
dad had a heavy hand, and despite being sixteen years old, Hank couldn’t stop
his old man from bringing the wrath down on him.
His mother reached for him. He stepped out of the way, avoiding her
touch, and pushed through the front door. Outside, the wrap-around porch
sheltered him from the afternoon sun.
