CHAPTER 12

Smells like slut in here.

-Simi to her sisters

SIMI

“Can’t fuckin’ believe you lot thought you could get away with killing a poor old lady,” Bright grumbled.

I didn’t bother to reply. Incriminating myself more at this point seemed like a poor idea.

To say that Sheriff Bright was pissed would be an understatement.

He drove like a goddamn maniac, taking turns so fast that I felt my heart leaving my body with each slide of his back tires.

Keene’s car was nowhere near ours, meaning that Bright was driving unsafely fast. So unsafely fast that the other deputies weren’t comfortable driving as fast as he was and had pulled way back.

I couldn’t see the motorcycle that I knew was following too.

He’d been keeping up until he got to the curves in the road, then he’d fallen back as if he, too, knew that it was too dangerous to go that fast—especially at night.

“Think you can make a fool out of me?” Bright muttered, his hands clenching and unclenching from the wheel. “I’ll show you.”

I could see a car’s taillights in the distance, and my heart thundered in my chest.

I looked down at the seat belt that wasn’t around me, then made a hasty decision to get it on.

It was as if Bright didn’t see the man getting closer and closer to him.

Mostly, his eyes were on his rearview mirror, as if he didn’t trust his deputies to bring Keene in without his eyes on them, forcing them to follow orders or else.

I watched, heart in my throat, as the car kept getting closer and closer and closer.

“Uh, sir,” I felt myself say. “There’s…the…the car!”

I screeched that last part so loud that the sheriff finally took his eyes off the road behind him to look in front of him.

But it was too late.

The car in front of us had started to slow down for a turn.

A turn that came much faster than he’d expected because he went from slowing down gently to slamming on his brakes, and the sheriff hadn’t expected it.

Bright cursed and swerved, but that only made him spin out of control.

The front right fender of his cruiser hit the car in front of us that was in the process of turning.

Before we’d started to flip, I witnessed the car in front of us do the same.

And then all I knew was disorientation, pain, and finally, nothing else.
