“Good girl…” With a grunt the man cups one in his hand and guides her nipple into his greedy mouth. He sucks it hard, making her groan and say his name. Her hands bury in his hair. I watch this woman lose all control, shaking and rubbing herself all over the man, panting like it’s the best thing in the world.

The man pops her titty out of his mouth and she guides the other one to his lips. His tongue laps at her, both hands now squeezing all up on her butt. Then in one quick move he tips herover his lap so her butt is pushing up. “You got all this ass ready for me?” he growls, shoving a hand under her dress to squeeze her there,hard. “I’ll make you come so hard.”

Come where?I think.

“Yes,” she moans.

She’s grinding herself on his lap, shameless as a cat in heat.

And I can’t look away.

God forgive me, but I can’t.

CRASH

PHONE HOME.

The message is from my sister, Sarah Jane.

I call my wife straightaway.

“What’s going on, Jess?”

“Nice to hear from you, finally,” Jess answers in a tone which suggests I’m the last person on earth she wants to hear from. “Ruby is sick, by the way.”

“Sick how? Did you get medicine?”

“I forgot,” Jessica sighs. “It’s nothing serious, anyway.”

“Take her to the doctor.”

“I’mbusy.”

“Busy with what?”

“When are you coming home?”

“Please take Ruby to the doctor, Jess, damn it.”

“Ruby has to learn I won’t always be there to coddle her. By the way, Freddie came over. They just let him out of jail so we’re going to get drinks.”

I pull onto the shoulder rapidly. A grandma in a mini cooper throws me the finger. “Don’t tell me you brought your fuckin’ brother into my house, Jessica.”

“Fuck you! Freddie’s innocent!”

“Keep him away from Ruby or I will murder him with my bare hands. Do you read me?”

“I’m sick of this baby bullshit,” Jessica snaps. “Everybody’s got a motherfucking opinion on what I’m doing. She’s not even your kid, Crash. ButI’mher mother. I can decide who comes aroundmykid.”

“Under the law she is my kid,” I say though I know the law won’t do shit. Jess is so protected out in Florin because her Pa is on the take from the hillbilly overlord Roman McCall.

The man I’m now working for.

A part of my reason for doing this job is Roman’s favor. If he applies pressure I can get Jess out of the picture, legally, sooner rather than later.

“Leave Ruby with my sister. I’ll give you money, alright? How much do you want?”
