He’d lured Kate Hayden to San Antonio with the Samaritan, who had ended Gloria Sanchez’s life with one shot. Now, it was time to morph into another killer from Kate’s files and claim another victim, one who would not enjoy a quick and merciful death.

He stood in the shadows, waiting for the woman to leave the coffee shop that was scheduled to close soon. The street was quiet, and the back alley where she parked her car was shrouded in deep shadows.

She had dark hair, pale-white skin, and a slim, athletic figure that any man would gladly bed. If it were in the game plan, he’d do her in a heartbeat. But fucking her wasn’t part of the plan.

He waited, watching her duck down the side alley that led to her car. She rummaged in a large purse as she fumbled with keys until her thumb pressed the “Unlock” button on her fob. She opened the back driver’s side door, dumped her purse on the seat, and slammed the door closed.

His head covered in a hoodie, he followed her, keeping his hands tucked and his head down. He could move quickly when he put his mind to it, and speed was most important now. As he approached she was opening her driver’s door. He quickened his pace. When gravel sounded under his boots, her body tensed and she turned.

Her gaze widened, startled. First, there was a flash of recognition, then fear. She gripped her keys and tried to hurl herself into her car. She was quick enough to close her door, but he was fast enough to stop her from locking him out.

He stabbed the needle into her back, and she arched back. He silenced her scream with a gloved hand over her mouth and held her close to his chest, giving the fast-acting sedative time to course through her body. She grabbed his hands with hers, desperately trying to pry open his grip. A car drove down the street, and he yanked her deeper into the dark. Cries became a moan as her muscles lost their tension and worry. She slumped back against the seat.

“That’s right,” he whispered against her ear. “Give in. It’ll be so much easier if you just let go.”

She tried to shake her head, but the movement was slight. Finally her hands dropped to her sides, her keys clinked against the ground, and her face tipped forward.

“That’s a good girl,” he said.

He grabbed her under her arms, and snatching up her keys, he dragged her toward the car’s trunk. He opened it and placed her inside. She lay helpless before him, her head turned, her neck exposed, her full breasts pressing against a white blouse.

He laid his hand on her breast, savoring the softness. He grew hard and wondered what it would be like to strip her naked and slide into her as he pretended she was Kate.

Drawing in a breath, he squeezed her breast once more and pulled back. Rape was not on his list.
