Twenty-two

K ingdom Trahan turned onto the long dirt drive that led to the abandoned house his cousin was apparently now calling home. He stopped his truck just inside the gate and sat there, idling. There were a lot of trees between here and there blocking his view.

He didn’t know if Simon was there, and if he was, if he was alone or had the Ferrer chick with him. How those two had hooked up was a question for another day. The only thing King had on his mind at this moment was what Chelle had told him when she’d called after lunch—that Simon had been given the shaft by Lorna Savoy for years.

By all rights, King and Simon should have owned the property jointly, the way their mothers as sisters had. But King’s parents died without having changed their will to provide for his future. His aunt, Simon’s mother, had petitioned the court for custody and won, walking away with not only her sister’s kid but his share of the four thousand acres that had been in their family since the Civil War.

The oil had been discovered before Simon and King were born. The production hadn’t been astronomical, the barrels enough to provide for the Trahan and Baptiste families. Then came the accident that had taken King’s parents and the tragedies that had followed to take Simon’s away as well.

The cousins had stuck together through all of it, running the place on a smaller scale after Simon’s father took off after their graduation. Or they had until Simon had managed to burn down King’s house and they’d both been sentenced to serve time.

When King had come home, he’d wanted to pick up the drilling where they’d left off. Things hadn’t worked out the way he’d expected, and somewhere along the way he’d stopped caring. Why should he be the one doing so when the place wasn’t even his? When he’d heard Simon was coming to check out the property, he hadn’t been surprised. No reason for his cousin to hang on to a losing proposition that hadn’t interested him since his discharge.

But what was Simon doing with Michelina Ferrer?

The night in Red’s when King had met her, she hadn’t said a word about knowing Simon, or traveling with him to Bayou Allain. But then they hadn’t done a lot of talking. She’d come there to find someone who could tell her where to find Lisa.

The way she’d stormed out of the bar, she obviously hadn’t been happy with what she’d found out, or the way the information had been deep-fried and served up with a side of Bear Landry’s bullshit. She’d flown out of the place as riled up as Terrill had only minutes before.

King had pressed Chelle for answers. She hadn’t been too thrilled when he hadn’t wanted to talk about anything besides what had gone down between his cousin and the judge.

If the woman didn’t understand his fixation, that was her problem, not his. Sex wasn’t worth the
