Exclusive Excerpt:
The Feds are gone for now. Because they have what they need. The name of my captor, where they can find the bodies…if there is anything left of them. According to the news, the fire spread quickly, consuming everything in its path. Part of me hopes that they find something, though. Some bones, a couple teeth, anything to prove that they are truly dead. But most likely they will only uncover ash, which leaves me disappointed.
I figure I bought myself a few hours until the agents return to probe me for more information, to ask me the same questions a thousand different ways.
How did you escape?
I ran.
Why did you run?
The house was on fire and I just witnessed three murders. Freedom was through the front door and I took it.
Who shot Edward Gaskill?
His nephew, Matthew.
Where is he now?
I have no idea.
And that is the truth. I don’t know where Matthew fled to. I just hope that wherever he is, he stays there, free to live out his life. I’ll always be grateful for what he did for me, that in the end he had become the man he had always wanted to be.
Was there anyone else in the house?
Yes, Edward Gaskill’s housekeeper and his slave, Aubrey. They’re both dead.
“Okay, Tia. I need to check your vitals again.” I don’t turn to look at the nurse who just entered my hospital room. She has already tried to strike up conversation once by telling me that she likes my name because it rhymes with Mia, her daughter’s middle name. “Tia, we have trained advocates who you can talk to… to be a support…”
I tap out and peer at the world through my hospital window. I can’t listen to another nurse or medical professional talk about the supports and services I should take advantage of because I’m an assault victim. Or stomach the way they look at me, pitying me.
“I already met with psych. I’m fine.” I don’t mean to be a bitch, but I have reached my limit and that is saying something.
“Oh, that’s great!”
I spoke to the psychiatrist, not to purge and express my feelings and relive four months of hell, but to convince the doctor that I’m stable enough to be discharged. Because that is my only goal right now. To leave this hospital, this fucking state.
“You’re almost finished with your last sodium bag. You should be nice and hydrated. How does your neck feel? Still irritated? Do you need something for the pain? On a scale from one to ten, what is your pain level?”
My hand goes to my neck and I touch the raw, sensitive flesh. “I’m fine.”
A hospital is the last place I wanted to end up because I knew this would happen. The questions, the sympathetic stares, tests to determine if I contracted something while I was…away. For a second I wish I had caught something lethal, because then it would be over; the memories, the nightmares. I would never see their faces again when I slept. I could just fade away.
