Chapter Eight

Clay and Isaac were sitting on the porch. Each man had a beer in hand and peered at the truck Bobby Jack sat in. They didn’t make a move and neither did he. Wind sent brown, curled leaves floating across the ground. Branches of the old oaks that surrounded the place swayed in the breeze. Unease slithered down his spine. When he was looking after Whit he’d used her phone to call Riley. Waiting to hear from his cousin was killing him. He needed to be gone and the sooner the better. He couldn’t be sure how much longer Isaac would tolerate him living there and he had nowhere else to go.

Bobby Jack reached for the door lever and Andy slid up next his window banging on the vehicle’s body. He automatically went for the gun wedged between the seats but relaxed his hand when his cousin made a silly face on the glass. They were waiting for him which was never good. He sighed and opened the door. A gust caressed his skin and blew over his scalp.

Andy handed him a beer and slapped his shoulder. “If you got a minute we need to talk to you.”

“About what?” Bobby Jack darted his gaze between his father and his cousin.

“Isaac can explain. We have a situation and Clay came up with an idea that can save our asses.” Andy stood close behind him. “Drink you beer before it gets warm.” He gave him a push with his shoulder. “Come on.”

“You been gone a few days, boy,” Isaac called out before he took a sip of his drink.

“I had business to take care of. Didn’t think you would mind.” Bobby Jack settled one foot on the bottom step of the deck.

Isaac grunted and Clay cleared his throat. “We have a minor issue. Seems of one of our people might have been picked up for the transportation and distribution of methamphetamine. There are rumors that that person may have turned state’s witness against us.”

“What have you done?” Bobby Jack wiped a hand down his face. “Can you validate any of this?”

“I kept a home around for you to come back to and lay your lazy ass in!” Isaac yelled. “You’re a pussy and an embarrassment. Step up. Your family needs you now. Act like the man I hoped I raised. We need to move product and no one knows you’re here. So, you just got drafted.” He placed the bottle by his feet and stood. “Welcome to our empire. I need to move shit to another location. Clay will explain what’s expected of you.” He moved and knocked the bottle over with his boot. Liquid spurted across the wood. “Fuck, now you made me waste a good beer.” He threw his hands up and stalked past Bobby Jack to the sedan parked on the side of the house. “This needs to happen tonight. Word is we’ll have company later.”

“Who exactly is feeding you this information?” Bobby Jack spun around and followed Isaac.
