CHAPTER 19
For fuckâs sake, that was close.
To be honest, I thought they were stupid, especially her, dozy Denise. Funny what the need for something can do to you. And I donât think itâs the money thatâs gnawing away inside her, making her veins throb with longing. Itâs me. The lies she keeps telling herself: that, after everything thatâs gone on, I still want her.
I feel sorry for her, in a way. Look how far loneliness can push you, chasing after something that isnât there, following the images youâve made in your head, the words youâve told yourself. Pushing, pushing you. Until you fall in love with an illusion.
But they want to make that illusion real. And it seems like they wonât stop until they find me, until they find David Kingfisher and get what they want.
I must stop thinking of them, must concentrate on me. On the plan. If I let myself get distracted, who knows what will happen?
Rule number one: I canât let them find me. I canât. If they find me, the whole thing will come crashing down. Iâve got to keep one step ahead.
Theyâve drawn a blank this time but what if someone talks? What if Fate conspires against me? What if someone puts two and two together?
The time has come. The time has come to put an end to all this.
