Tigress Chapter 16

The concert of snores filling the cab made me smile. Naomi’s was sporadic but Michael’s was that steady bass that nearly shook the quiet cab. I had tried to sing for a while just to drown them out, but that was futile and they both needed rest.

I wasn’t sure what we’d find in Litchfield and as we got closer to New York, I started second guessing this trip.

Naomi stirred in the seat next to me, her sleepy eyes opening to the dark road ahead. When her gaze landed on me, she bit her lip, studying my expression, trying to read my mind like she used to, but now that she was cured, that psychic connection seemed to be disconnected.

“What’s wrong?” she asked and I glanced at her before nodding toward the approaching signs, specifically the one for the George Washington Bridge.

The last time we were there, I almost bit the dust and to this day, I still have nightmares.

She didn’t speak but her hand found my thigh and squeezed. For her, that day was an exercise in revenge, but for me, it was a reminder that Lucifer almost won. The close proximity to his home base just reinforced the danger.

The next time we faced him, I wouldn’t make it out alive and Naomi’s future was even bleaker, but I wasn’t about to voice Lucifer’s threats. I didn’t want to entertain the thoughts at all because, if it came right down to it, I would tear her throat out before I would allow her to become his indentured slave.

“I don’t know what we’ll find when we get home. I imagine the explosion left one hell of a crater.”

Michael’s snore ceased and he shifted. “It did,” he said before the rumbling sound of sleep kicked back in.

I traded a glance with Naomi, raising my eyebrow. She shrugged and I decided to see what kind of information I could draw out of Michael in his sleep state.

“Has it been cleaned up?” I asked, knowing the property reverted to Damian Andreas, the only surviving member of the owner’s family. I had claimed the property via email contact and did all the transfer of ownership through a lawyer in Denver, but I hadn’t thought to rebuild.

“Yes.” Came his answer between the baritone snores.

“Are you asleep?”

Michael’s eyes opened and he sent a glare my way. “Not with you asking questions every five seconds.”

“Well, you both slept most of the night and let me tell you, you both snore loudly enough to wake the dead.” I glanced at them. “You’re lucky I didn’t wake you sooner.”

“How much longer?” Michael asked.

“We’re only a couple of hours away,” I answered and glanced at the clock. “There’s a rest area up ahead. Do you want me to stop?”

“Please,” Naomi said and shifted in the seat a few times. I sent a smirk in her direction. The benefit of this virus meant that the body’s elimination cycle was eons slower than normal. I think mine is now in the
