“Can I help ya?” a blonde with stringy hair asks from behind the counter at the gas station.

“I’m looking for a place to stay. I’m only here for a couple of days.” I walk over to the counter.

This woman is rough. She’s clearly seen better days. I can tell from her red-rimmed eyes and unwashed hair that she’s well past the point of giving a shit anymore.

“There’s only one motel. It’s a block down. Full of prostitutes though. Is that what you’re looking for?” She grins and her yellow teeth match the rest of her demeanor.

“No. Not hardly. I’m just passing through.”

“Well, I’m Mindy. I stay in room fourteen if you change your mind.”

I freeze. What are the chances that the Mindy I’m looking for is the Mindy I find as soon as I get to town?

“Mindy, huh?

“Yeah, here you go.” She hands me a piece of paper with her phone number on it.

“Can you give me your last name? I like to have first and last names in my phone. I’m just weird like that.” It’s a long shot. Most people aren’t going to give a stranger their full name.

“Are you a cop or something?” She narrows her eyes in my direction.

“What? No. I told you I don’t want anything to do with prostitutes. I thought you were just wanting to show me a good time.”

She stares at me for what feels like an eternity, then finally, she takes my phone out of my hand.

“I’ll see you later.” She winks. I bet Mindy used to be good looking. Back before she let drugs take over her body.

I don’t open my phone until I get back to my truck. I can’t believe my luck. I made the trip to Deadhorse to find Mindy and Maribelle Connor. I fully intend to pay back their mother for killing my dad.

I can’t believe the first place I stop, the first person I meet, is Mindy Connor.

I drive the two miles down the road to the seedy motel. This place is a dump. The perfect hang out for druggies and prostitutes.

“I need a room for two nights, please,” I tell the elderly lady at the front desk. It makes sense that illegal activities take place here, this lady has no idea what’s going on.

“Any preference on a room?” she asks, like I’ve been here before.

“I’ll take room fifteen.” I throw it out there, maybe I’ll get lucky and get the room next to Mindy. That would make this a whole lot easier.

“Sure thing. Here you go, sweetheart.” She hands over the key and I make my way down to the room.

A crunch of some leaves pulls me from my thoughts. I look around, but it’s too dark outside to see anything.

“Who’s there?” I call out. Like someone would answer me if they’re trying to ambush me.

“It’s me.” I see Belle come from the shadows.

“Couldn’t stay away I see?” My body just reacts to her when I see her now. I can’t get the image of that guy fucking her out of my head.

“I wanted to come by and ask if you enjoyed the show.” She grins. I knew she invited him over solely for me.

“I did. But I think you know that.” I feel my dick harden in my pants. I can’t keep it together around this woman.

She doesn’t say anything, just moves to stand in front of me. “Is it your turn again?”

Fuck, this woman will be the death of me. She’s going to distract me from my purpose of coming here in the first place.

“Fuck. I hope so.” I pull her to me and crash my mouth to hers. She tastes like beer.
