Chapter Two

LIAM

“Hurry the fuck up Carter! It’s your fucking fault I’m missing Rachael’s birthday. The least you can do is make sure we don’t miss this damn flight.” I growl in my brother’s direction as we hurry toward our departing gate.

I called my brother, hoping he would help me get to Rachael faster, but he’s taking me farther away — much farther away.

“Chill out, bro. We got this shit covered. Just get me to Cali and you can come home to your precious Rachael.” Carter stumbles into a magazine rack in a nearby store. I’m surprised he can even still stand up.

I should’ve known when I called my brother at the bar he would already be toasted. He showed up with a dent in the side of his car and smelling like alcohol. I immediately took him home hoping to turn around and heading back to Rachael.

However, my plans were ruined when my dad was standing at the door with two bags packed for Carter and me.

“Get in the car,” he growls. Shoving both of us back out the house toward his SUV, “I’ll drive you to the airport. Liam make sure your brother gets checked into the rehab listed on this paper.” He hands me a stack of papers.

“Dad, I was just bringing his drunk ass home! It’s Rachael’s birthday and I’m already over an hour late as is because of the flat.”

“I don’t give a shit about your little whore, Liam. What could be more important than making sure your brother gets better.”

“You need to stop calling her a whore! What the fuck does this have to do with me. Cover the shit up like you always do, you’re good at making sure no one in this town knows how fucked up this family is.” I growl before turning to head toward Carter’s car. I’ve had enough of both their shit.

“What will your little whore say when her daddy’s piece of shit shop finds itself in financial trouble? It’s easy to make tax issues come up, Liam.”

“You’re a piece of work, you know that.”

“I’ll do anything to protect this family, best remember that.” My dad shoves past me and heads toward his SUV.

“Even ruin someone else’s life?”

I turn and notice my brother leaning up against my dad’s Explorer. Dad has always had to get Carter out of trouble, being the Mayor’s son has its perks. I guess this time he did something Dad can’t get him out of.

“There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do to protect the family name.”

I notice how he said, family name and not family. He doesn’t give a shit about any of us. He makes that clear with the way he sleeps around on my mom.

I shake my head. “You win, but I’ll get his ass checked in and then I’m coming home. This shit with threatening people has to stop, I can’t wait ‘til the people of Shawnee realize how crooked you are and kick you out of office.”

My father gives me a sinister smile, “You understand that these people are too stupid to see the truth.
