Chapter 13

Ally scrambled to gather her work clothes after a quick shower. She didn’t want to wake her parents. Her mother nearly had a joyous meltdown when she heard her daughter was coming to stay with them. Ally’s old bedroom was ready before she even arrived.

“Shit,” she hissed as the realization of how late for work she was. Being inside comfort of her parent’s home had caused her to oversleep. Bowen was supposed to be picking her up for work that morning. Problem was, he’d planned to pick her up at the house she shared with her cousins. Without transportation, Ally snuck into her parent’s room and beg her dad for his truck keys. He willingly gave them over with a fumbling hand and closed eyes. She kissed his cheek and he drifted back to sleep.

She quickly climbed into the driver’s seat of his old T&J work truck. The logo on the side had faded over time. Jay had closed down the extermination business several years ago, after winning the election for sheriff of Devils Bend. The truck may have been old but it ran like a dream. Ally’s dad made a point to take care of it. If she were smart, she would buy it from him. Of course, he would never allow her to pay him for it. He would willingly give it to her without question, as they rarely used it. Ally put the thought into the back of her mind and drove toward her destination. First, she stopped for her morning coffee.

It was a good thing she was driving her dad’s truck. The town cops wouldn’t dare pull over Jay’s truck for speeding. Ally didn’t usually take advantage as she cruised twenty miles over the posted speed limit.

Ally watched for Bowen’s truck but didn’t see any sign. She wondered if he had forgotten about her. When she pulled into the parking lot of the plant, she scanned the vehicles for his. It wasn’t there. She hated for him to waste his time waiting for her to come out of the house. Then a sick feeling invaded her gut as she thought if he had gone to the door. She contemplated going back, but she was already late for her shift. Ally quickly gathered her things.
