“I always do,” I grin.
Hanging up the phone, I turn around to face the guys who are standing at the top of the steps, gaping at me. You would think they would be used to this shit by now. They have been to a few of my shows, and those are not short on the guts and gore.
“So,” I say, clapping my hands as if my mouth doesn't have blood dripping from it. “I'm gonna let that Barbie Bitch have about...” I look at my wrist, looking at my non-existent watch. “About 28 more minutes to freak the fuck out while her life flashes in front of her eyes before I go all Fast and Furious on her ass. I called Evie. She's gonna come and watch Rosie.”
Cass growls. His breathing is ragged, and his eyes are wild and feral. I have never seen him like this before. He's always the level-headed, funny one. But mess with his daughter and he will rip your head off. It’s actually fucking hot; well, it would be if it was for any other reason.
“Evie is the only person in this whole world I trust with my life. That means something big. She would never let anything happen to your daughter. Rosie will be fast asleep, and you will be back here, with her in your arms, before she wakes. I know you all want to come, so someone needs to be here with her.”
“Fine!” he growls.
“Now, I'm gonna go get a few things. I’ve got to call my men to get the showroom set up. When Evie gets here, meet me at the club,” I say before turning around and heading towards the car.
“Hey!” Cass calls from behind me. I freeze but don’t turn. “Thank you.” I don’t say anything, just nod.
“COME ON, COME ON,”I say to myself, my leg bouncing in anticipation. My phone says two more minutes. The phone rings, and I use the car system to answer.
“Are you ready?” Evie asks. I can hear the excitement in her voice. Evie set up her laptop at the guys’ house and is gonna help track the car.
“Ready like a pussy loves cock,” I say.
“What does that even mean?” Evie giggles. “Anyways. I found her car. I started tracking her once she left. She went to her home for a few minutes then left, and made her way to an office building downtown. So, with all the delays, she's only got a 5-minute head start on you. She's heading east on the 55.”
“Perfect,” I say, revving the engine. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1, showtime! I shove the gear stick in to drive and floor it. The car takes off with force. I zoom down the almost empty streets, dodging cars when they pop up.
“Alright, you're close. She switched cars, she's in a little red bug now. I don't know why the hell she would have chosen that car. God, she's stupid. She is literally putting a target on her back,” Evie scoffs, and I laugh.
“I'm kind of disappointed that there won't be more of a chase, but I'm also excited I get to play sooner,” I say, all giddy like.
“We need to get you regular playdates because you are way too excited,” she laughs.
“E, I'm always excited to play. It’s the highlight of my fucking life. But I have extra sick and fucked up things planned for these two. Evie, you have no idea the things they did to that little girl. They're getting a new fun package.” My face morphs into a sinister smile as I play out all the fun things, I'm gonna do.
“Daaamn. Well, it sucks to be them,” she laughs. “Alright, they should be coming up on your left,” Evie says.
I look around, and just my luck, a little red bug zips out from a side street. The bitch sees me, and her eyes go wide. She quickly turns onto the same street I am, only able to go straight. Her car starts to go as fast as the damn thing can. And just for the sake of it, I make my pretty blue sports car slow, giving her the illusion that she has a chance. It makes things more fun.
I turn on the radio, andEye Of The Tigermakes its way through the speakers. “Fuck yeah!” I shout and turn it up full blast. I scream out the lyrics as I bounce around in my seat. My adrenaline is off the charts, and I'm just a big ball of energy waiting to explode on their asses.
Rolling down the window, I stick my head out, feeling the cold air rush against my face. “Whaaa whooooo!” I yell into the night sky.
We're almost out of the city limits, and little does this bitch know she's bringing us closer to home. Good, less work for me to do.
There's a bridge up ahead, and I feel like this would be a good place to end this little cat and mouse game.
Pressing my foot harder on the gas, I speed up until I'm bumper to bumper. Her eyes snap up to the rearview mirror, and I give her one of my signature Cheshire cat smiles while wiggling my fingers hello.
The bridge comes into view, and I put the rest of my plan into action. I slow just a little and then floor it again. My car knocks into hers, sending it skidding to the side, right where I want it to go. The little red bug goes right up onto the guard rail before flying over the side, down into the shallow river below. I can hear the scraping of metal and their screams coming from the car. I start laughing like an evil genius.
“Showtime,” I shout, fist pumping the air.
“Do me proud, Low,” Evie says. Fuck, I forgot she was there. As if she could read my mind, she laughs. “It's okay; I know how you get. Your mind is in the zone. Keep me updated.”
“Will do, Boo,” I say, and the call drops.
Putting the car in park, I hop out and whistle my way over to the trunk. “Now what do I need?” I think out loud to myself. “Well, the dude is gonna be heavier than the barbie bitch, so I'll need rope.” Looking over the rest of my toys, I pick out what I will need.
The car has smoke coming out from the hood, but I can still hear their screams, so I know they are still alive. Good, it would totally put a damper on things if they died before I got to have any fun.
Sliding down the bank on my feet and using my hand to steady myself, I make it down pretty quickly. By now, I can only hear Barbie Bitch yelling for help.
When I get to the car, I make my way over to her side. I crouch down and creep over to her window, and ever so slowly, I start to rise with the biggest fucked up smile I can muster. When my eyes make contact with hers, I say, “Heeeeere’s Queenie!” Her head snaps in my direction, and she screams at the top of her lungs.I don't get it? Is it the smile or the fact that I still have her blood around my mouth?God, what a fucking pussy.
