“This is such a bad fucking idea.” Zane says as he looks over at me.
“Yes, but it’s going to work.” I stop as I look at the car we’re approaching. “Oh, and I’m really glad now that I insisted on this.” I grin as we walk up to the Porsche. “Can I drive?”
“Oh, he may actually kill me if I do that. This is the first time he’s ever let me drive one of his cars.”
“Okay, one of his cars? What does he do? I know you guys said tour.”
“He plays guitar.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, he went on the first tour right after we turned 18. It’s why I never even asked if he wanted to come back to stay with Drew. I wouldn’t have let him.”
I just nod my head as we pull off of the road where the clubhouse sits, off into the woods.
“Do you think whoever has been following them is whoever killed your parents?”
I can feel the energy in the car shift, as if he hadn’t thought of it until now.
“It would make some sense.”
“How?”
“Whoever is behind it, they didn’t mean to kill Lucy. At least I don’t think they did.”
“Then how?”
“Liza found Lucy weeks after Fury died, and ended up checking herself, after a very blunt conversation with the rest of us, into an in-care facility.”
“Her mom committed suicide?”
“They ruled it an accidental overdose.”
“But you don’t think so?”
“I think she had just lost her husband. It broke her. They had just buried Khan before that and then Fury. I don’t think she knew what was happening, and that was terrifying.”
“So, has anyone come after you or anyone else?”
“Not yet.”
“Yet?”
“I know it’s only a matter of time. It’s why we’ve taken precautions.”
“Like what?”
“Extra security stuff.” He just shrugs as he continues to drive.
“You see ‘em?” Zane says and I look at him like I’m crazy.
“Who are you talking to?”
“Zeke.” He points up to his ear.
“Oh. Well, now I won’t say anything.”
