Yeah, I can give him that. I drive us back to the Hilton and the room that we’ve been paying for but haven’t spent much time in since we booked it. Though, the time wedidspend there was amazing.

He holds me close as we walk inside the lobby. I keep my head pressed to his shoulder with his arm wrapped around my waist. Once we’re in the room again, I kick my sandals off and start to undress. When I’m down to my bra and panties, I slide into the bed and wait for him to join me.

“I gotta get back for the piss test,” he says against the bare skin of my arm right before nipping the spot.

“Sure. We can head back.”

“Not done, babe. You know that. We’re not done. It’s just a detour.”

“Would you…?” I let out a long breath. “Never mind.”

“Would I what? No getting shy on me now.”

“It’s stupid.”

“The look on your face tells me it’s not. Whatever it is, it’s important to you.”

“Would you like to meet my sister?”

His head jerks as he looks at me through curious eyes. “You really want me, the biker, to meet her?”

“You said I’m yours until this is over. I just thought… See, I told you it was stupid.”

“Not stupid, Preppy. Never had a woman want to introduce me to the family before.”

I narrowed my eyes at him. “What about Dela? You know Rae.”

“Rae showed up to Bentley. Del never arranged that shit. She never brought it up. That’s why I met Rae.”

“So you want to, then?”

“You asking, then yeah. It means this is important to you. She anything like you?”

“Green, she’s underage. You can’t fuck her,” I deadpan.

His whole body goes tight. “You think I want that—tofuckyour sister? You really think that?”

“N-No. I was kidding. Bad joke, I’m sorry.”

“Never do that to you,” he grumbles. “Know how to be faithful. Never cheated on a woman in my life.”

“Sorry,” I whisper again. “She’s a trip. A little wilder than me, but not by much. I’d call it ‘youthful exuberance.’”

“Because you’reso ancient.”

“I feel like it most days.”

“Babe,” he whispers, and no matter how long we last, I know I’ll never meet another man like Green.

GREEN

Ch. Ten

Before heading back to Middlesboro, we take a detour into Durham to check out the scene. The dumpsite, a wooded lot outside of the city with enough privacy for someone to dump a body without being seen if they went at the right time of night, has police tape sectioning off a large area.

He loves wooded dumpsites—but where are his kill sites? “Where is he killing them?” I ask, not really expecting an answer, but just thinking out loud.
