If Coal hadn’t warned me, I would’ve been freaked out to find a man standing in the parking lot near my car when I left work two days later. Even though I’d never seen him before, I knew who he was.

“Are you Aspen White?” he asked and started to come closer.

“Yes, and you are?”

“Carter Perry,” he introduced. “Do you know who I am?”

I did, but I acted like I didn’t. “No, should I?”

“Your mother was married to my father.”

“That’s news to me. I don’t have a relationship with my mother.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, it is. Is there something I can help you with?”

“Is there something you can help me with?” he repeated in a mocking tone. “Yes, you can tell me everything you know about her.”

“I just told you I don’t have a relationship with her. I haven’t spoken to her since I was sixteen years old. Whatever you think I know, I can assure you, I don’t.”

“Your mother killed my father for his money. Your mother framed me for kiddie porn. Your mother hired a woman to pretend to be my girlfriend to plant the evidence. The same woman who was involved in an attempted kidnapping. A kidnapping that she made my son help her with. A kidnapping that happened to be of a child that belongs to a member of your boyfriend’s club. Then, that same fucking night, the woman is found floating face down in your mother’s pond, and my son has been missing since. And you expect me to believe you don’t know anything?” he shouted.

It took a moment for his words to register. A child that belongs to a member of your boyfriend’s club. Which child? And was he saying the Blackwings had something to do with his son’s disappearance or the woman’s death? Or both?

I looked at him with utter confusion written all over my face. “What?”

“You really didn’t know?”

“I told you I didn’t know anything,” I said distractedly as his words played over and over in my head. Coal hadn’t told me about an attempted kidnapping, but that didn’t mean it was because he was hiding something, like a murder and a missing person.

“I can see that,” he said and started to turn to leave. “You might want to consider the company you keep. It’s not fun getting blamed for something someone else did.”

When I got to Coal’s house, I went straight to his room and closed the door. He wouldn’t be home for a few hours, but Game would be home any minute, and I needed time alone to think.

After a short nap and a long bath, I figured the best thing to do was to tell him what Carter said and flat out ask him if there was any truth to it. I wasn’t worried about Coal lying to me. I had a feeling he’d be honest. I just hoped it would be something I could accept.

The moment he saw my face, he knew something was wrong. “What happened?”

“Carter Perry was waiting for me when I got off work,” I started and noticed Coal’s body slightly tense.
