SAVANNAH
“I’m sorry, say that again?” I choke out as Elliot splutters, “No way!”
beside me.
Ignoring him, I stare at my boss, James, who scratches his temple,
clearly uncomfortable.
His small office, with news articles lining the walls, a desk, which is his
pride and joy, and a lone bookshelf, feel even smaller now that Elliot’s
anger sucks out all the oxygen.
“I admit it’s not ideal—” he starts, but Elliot cuts him off.
“Why would Robbie Hammond, one of the most notorious serial killers
in the country, refuse to be interviewed by anyone else but her?” He waves
in my general direction. “Why her?”
Sucking on my teeth, I cross my arms, ignoring the spark of annoyance
in me at his crappy attitude. Despite my dislike for him, he has a point. I’ve
only worked for the paper for a little under two months, and suddenly,
seemingly out of nowhere, the paper gets an interview request from none
other than Robbie Hammond, but with one stipulation—it has to be me.
In exchange for an exclusive, he has agreed to let me interview him for
an hour once a week leading up to his scheduled execution next year. It’s a
big fucking deal, one our small newspaper can’t turn down. It would be
foolish to.
But why me specifically?
Unease and intrigue war inside me. However, I’m also flattered, which
is alarming as hell. Who wants to catch the attention of a killer? More
importantly, how did it even happen? He’s been locked away for sixteen
years.
My curiosity resembles a weedy patch on a lawn at this point.
Regardless of how I try to contain it, it’s becoming uncontrollable. I want to
find out why he chose me and not the successful, hardworking reporter
beside me who’s currently glaring daggers my way.
Elliot has always been intense. When I set foot inside this building, he
was the first to introduce himself.
James clears his throat, straightening his askew tie. “It’s out of my
hands, Elliot. Besides, this could be a good opportunity for Savannah. Yes,
she’s new, but I am confident she will do well.”
“Let me accompany her, at least,” Elliot demands, making me narrow
my eyes on him.
“What’s your fucking problem?” I growl.
“Now, let’s not argue —”
Elliot turns toward me, shoulders stiff. “My fucking problem? Robbie
Hammond is a serial killer, or have you forgotten?”
I snort. “It’s not like I’ll be alone with him.”
“That’s beside the point. He’ll manipulate you —”
“Manipulate me?” I snap, anger flushing through me. “Do you not think
I can handle myself?”
“Why do you think he demanded you?”
James watches our exchange tiredly, hands flat on the table, a bead of
sweat trickling down his temple.
Elliot and I have clashed heads ever since we first met, because he’s a
competitive asshole who won’t back off. I took this job out of sheer
desperation after an email dropped in my inbox one day advertising for a
reporter.
