Jordan was going to go back to search for that scent. Her wolf and her gut told her she needed to find it.
She walked through the slots, watching as people made and lost money from the press of a button or the roll of a dice. Every few seconds the sounds of quarters dropping filled the air along with whoops of joy and laughter.
She reached the dollar machines and stopped. There was that scent again. She ran now, the animal pushing at her skin. Her wolf wanted out, to attack and destroy. Still, Jordan didn’t know why. What was it about that scent that upset her?
Rounding a corner, she entered a quiet section of the hotel filled with nickel slots. Her blood buzzed with energy. Then she saw it. A woman facing one of the machines in the room. This was the person she’d been searching for. But why? What could this woman mean?
With quiet steps, she marched forward. Once she was just a few feet away she stopped. She feared the wolf would control her. The anger was that great inside her.
“Excuse me...”
The woman, whose long dark hair fell down her back in a long unkempt braid turned around to face her.
Oxygen rushed out of Jordan’s lungs as if she’d been punched. She knew that face. It was the same face she’d seen countless times in her nightmares. The face of the woman she’d once called mom.
“Jordan?” The woman asked. Her voice was slurred and the scent of liquor drifted off her in waves.
Jordan reined the beast in. For once, she should have ignored the beast. Why had her wolf led her to this woman? To the person who had made her life hell and destroyed her childhood.
She turned to go, unable to say anything, but was stopped in her tracks when the woman spoke.
“Look at you,” she hiccupped, her body swaying from side to side on the stool. “All grown up. You’re still fat though.”
Jordan whipped around then, her animal pushing at the skin to get at the woman.
“You’re a drunk. I don’t know you. Don’t refer to me by name. You’re nobody to me.” She said the words and meant them.
“Don’t be such a bitch. I’m your mother or have you forgotten. I gave you life.”
“No! You made my life hell. You made what little I had to look forward to miserable.” She spit the words out. A flood of hate had opened and she couldn’t hold it back. “You’re the reason I hated myself for so long.”
“Doesn’t seem to have helped you lose weight,” the woman said with an evil smile. “Who’s gonna want you when you’re so big.”
The anger and hate she’d been holding on to since she’d been a teen suddenly disappeared. This woman, with her torn old clothing and obvious drinking problem, didn’t control her. Why had Jordan let her words and actions hurt for so long?
“I have enough love in my life that I don’t need anything else.”
The woman’s eyes lit up. She glanced at Jordan’s engagement ring and licked her lips.
