“Hey, was just about to call you,” he said. “The RV site was rented under an alias. The truck that was registered to him was also bought under the same alias, now that we know what name to look for. And the person that Sage has been seeing come and go from the RV just came by.”
“What?” Black barked.
“That’s what she thought. She called me,” he said. “Went out to the house, and get this…it’s a fuckin’ kid. That one you called me about today.”
“Eustace?”
“One and only,” he said. “Caught him trying to break into the back of the trailer.”
“Son of a bitch.” Black pinched the bridge of his nose. “I’ll be there when I sober up a little.”
“Take your time,” he said. “We know where he lives.”
“Call his parents again, too,” Black grumbled.
Gentry and Black hung up.
“So he killed him and stole all his credit cards,” Constance guessed, taking another sip of her beer.
Her fourth.
Damn, she was sexy when she drank beer.
Wished my cock was that damn beer bottle rim.
“It would be too easy.” Black shook his head. “The real question is…why did he keep going back?”
“My sentiments exactly.”
Black’s phone rang again. He put it on speaker again and left the phone in the middle of the table.
“What is it?”
“Dr. Pendelton was found dead in his home.”
“And let me guess, they can’t find Eustace,” I guessed.
“Nope.” Black sighed and stood up. “Thanks for dinner. Guess I need to head out.”
Constance put a hand on his arm. “You’re not going anywhere. You’ve been pounding those beers. Odin will drive you.”
Black paused, then nodded. “Yeah, that’s for the best.”
I winked at Constance. “I’ll drop him off and be back.”
She walked away, coming back with a key long moments later.
She handed them to me, then said, “The code to disarm the alarm is the same as yours.”
I grinned.
“And make sure you stay long enough that you can get all the information. I’m dying here.”
I winked, then tugged her close by putting a finger through the loop of her jeans.
She came willingly, then threaded her arms around my shoulders. “Be good.”
“I’ll try.” She winked. “Take care of him. He looks sad.”
