Chapter Nine
Tuesday, November 29th.
Lucky Strike Motel. North Las Vegas.
In the middle of the night, Annie had taken the bus from the strip and made it back to the motel long before the creep next door. Safe for the moment, but she had to find a different place to stay before he recognized her.
She showered off the blood and washed it out of her hair. She tossed her jeans and shirt into the shower with her and scrubbed off the blood. Nothing to change into, so when she hung them over the shower rod, she hoped they would be dry enough to wear in the morning.
Annie lay curled up naked in the bed in her room listening for the creeper to come back to his room next to hers. She would hear him open the door and close it again when he came in.
When he knocked her down in the alley behind the strip club and beat her head into the pavement, sheâd scraped the skin off her left arm and hurt her recently damaged leg.
The lump on her head caused a dull ache, but nothing she couldnât handle. She had nothing with her to fix her injuries but intended to drop by a drugstore first chance she got.
Heâd killed another girl and there was nothing she could do to prevent it. Annie felt bad about the dead girl. She had tried to stop the creeper, but without a weapon or something to fight him with, she wasnât strong enough to do any good. She searched the room for her Beretta and couldnât find it.
Was the creeper in my room? Did he take my gun?I have to get to the safehouse as soon as itâs light.
Summerlin. Las Vegas.
There was no food in the house, only coffee and the carton of cream Mick went to the store to buy.
Misty was up early talking to Carmelita on the phone about Forest. When her call ended, she sat down at the kitchen table with Tommy and Mick, and they talked about the day ahead.
âYesterday we made no progress,â said Misty, âbecause Annie wasnât moving, and her energy stagnated in the bus shelter.â
âIf she wasnât moving does that mean sheâs hurt, or somebody grabbed her, and sheâs tied up and canât get away?â asked Tommy with a pained expression on his face.
âNot necessarily,â said Misty. âIt could be either one of those scenarios, or she might be resting and trying to sort things out in her head. She has to be going through an emotional trauma because of the amnesia.â
Tommy nodded. âI donât want her to be hurt or hit by a fuckin bus, or held prisoner by the fuckin Brotherhood, or something.â
Listening to the possibilities Tommy was laying down, Mick looked like he might throw up.
With the morning news on the flat screen, Blaine and Farrell sat in the living room drinking coffee. The news anchor babbled away, then suddenly stopped to deliver a breaking bulletin.
âIt seems the Machete Maniac has murdered his second victim in the City of Las Vegas.
