Chapter 14
âMissing me?â Jakeâs welcomed voice was soft, cool and seductive.
Amanda gasped. Sheâd quickly prayed for the slim possibility that the unblocked number was Jake calling, if not on his own cell then from someone elseâs.
âI think you know the answer,â she exhaled deeply. At the shock of his voice sheâd been holding her breath.
âI donât know anything with you anymore,â he sneered and added, âMaybe I never did.â
Jakeâs pain was almost tangible, touchable, as it floated through her phone. Realizing she was trembling, and sweating, Amanda clutched her cell tighter and curled up semi-fetal against Morocco who lounged beside her on the bed. His warmth and pent-up power gave her comfort and strength.
âPlease donât say that Jake,â she pleaded. âYou do know me. Youâve always known me. Better than anyone ever has. More completely than anyone ever will. Nothingâs changed,â she added, âNo matter whatâs happened, or will happen, youâre always my heart and soul.â
He snickered.
âYeah, right,â he said.
âListen to me,â she sat up.
Petrified heâd hang up. Afraid that no matter what she said she wouldnât get through to him. Terrified that even her carefully chosen words would only make things worse.
âYou have to believe me,â she begged. âI know how bad I fucked up with my book,â she paused and took a deep breath, âand in Conroy.â And thinking of her hasty invitation for a showdown, she added, âAnd maybe Iâm still fucking up. But I just donât know what else to do, what else to say, to get you to understand what you really mean to me. To get you to believe how much Iâve always loved you. How much I still love you now.â
She closed her eyes, shaken, both dreading and anticipating his response. But she heard only indiscernible rustling and then Jakeâs low euphoric groan.
âJake?â
And then the moist repetitive sounds of sliding and slippery wet suction, unmistakably a blowjob as he held his cell closer to Mistyâs head. It took a moment for Amanda to process what she was hearing, and only a fraction of another for the true horror to set in.
âYou fuckinâ sick bastard!â she screamed.
âIsnât that the way you like me?â was all he said.
***
Awake and unsettled after Katelynâs disquieting call, Tyler strolled to his gun cabinet, unlocked it decisively and pulled his revolver from its mount. Correction Katelyn, he mused, itâll be me, you, Amanda, Rachel, Wade, Jake and my friends Smith and Wesson.
The gunâs stainless steel frame glinted in the subdued glow of his living roomâs night light as he rolled the weapon gently over in his hand. Two-and-a-half-inch barrel cool to the touch, its wood grip was smooth and comforting. Although the seven-shot double action weighed merely more than two pounds, Tyler knew it would be more than enough reinforcement to stop Jake, if need be, dead in his tracks.
He pressed the thumbpiece forward, unlocking the rotating swing-out cylinder, and pushed it to the left. It had been awhile since heâd fired but he was a well-practiced, excellent shot and he remembered keenly how the recoil transferred straight back into the web of his hand.
