Chapter 32

****

The first thing Georgia did back at the Carterville police station after they’d searched the motel parking lot with no results was take a few minutes in the locker room to shower and change into some fresh clothing. Her arm ached, and without the supporting sling, she knew it was only going to get worse. The donated hospital scrubs were ruined, forever doomed to smell like smoke. She tossed them in the trash, but kept her pair of borrowed tennis shoes.

“Ok, Dennis, start talking.” Ana used her body to block Georgia’s exit from the locker room. Jules sat with arms crossed over her chest, a determined glint in her hazel eyes. She also wore a pair of borrowed coveralls—as did Ana, whose room had been destroyed, as well. They all had to roll the sleeves to free their hands and roll the legs to avoid tripping, but at least they were clean and dry—dressed in coveralls proclaiming they were part of crime scene clean up in garish yellow lettering across their backs.

“About what?” Georgia avoided looking at them.

“Don’t play dumb, you don’t do it that well,” Jules said as she twisted her now washed hair into a knot and secured it with her ever present pencils.

“About what? You know about what.” Ana smacked the back of Georgia’s head. “From the first moment you two met, you and Hellbrook have shot off enough flames and sparks to light a fire bigger than the one that burned tonight. Don’t forget—I was there when you met him. Yet a few hours ago, I see you locked into probably one of the hottest kisses I’ve ever seen with none other than the ‘cold, arrogant, son-of-a-bitch bastard’ who has made your life a living hell for the last six months. So what gives?”

“I honestly haven’t got a clue. He’s everywhere. Hard and hot, consuming. Touching me. Making me want to touch him. It’s weird, it’s different. It’s disconcerting.” Georgia lay her head down on the wooden bench, then stared at the fluorescent lighting above her. “It’s hot.”

“Exhilarating, exciting, erotic.” Ana snickered. “Come on, we’ve all seen this day coming.”

“What? How?”
