finished her thought with a smile.
She laughed again as she saw Erin approach her with the knife. "I suppose you're going to tell me to drop the
gun and fight you fairly?"
"You don't have the guts to do so." Erin responded through clenched teeth. She heard Liz groan from behind,
heard her moving, but she wasn't about to peel her eyes away from the evil woman.
"You're right, she doesn't." Adams whispered as she staggered to stand beside her lover, a knife of her own
hidden behind her back.
"Such harsh words." Kristen let out and then laughed as she clenched her chest. "You're breaking my heart."
"I'm sure we are." Erin replied, her green eyes fierce and boring daggers into Reece. "Because she doesn't want
you. She doesn't love you."
"Shut up you little bitch!"
Erin had stricken a nerve and she kept on, taking a step closer as she spoke.
"She loves me not you."
"Fucking whore." Kristen seethed.
"How could she love you, Kristen? You're evil. You killed all those people and then tried to frame Liz. How
could she love you?"
Kristen glared at her. "That's right I did. And I'm going to get away with to."
Adams raised her good arm back over her shoulder just as Kristen finished the words. She then flung the knife
quickly, and yelled out for Erin to get down.
Erin flung herself to the floor as Adams yelled, unsure as to what was going on, but seeing the knife turn end
over end as it flew through the air with rocket like speed. She then covered her head, not looking to see if the
knife hit its mark.
A shot rang out. One then two. Erin flinched, waiting to feel the pain, but none came. She opened her clenched
eyes slowly and looked around. Kristen lay in a twisted heap on the floor. The knife wavered from it's
penetration in her chest as blood ran out from two other holes by its side. Erin looked back to her lover, unsure
where the other two holes had come from. Adams stood bracing herself against the kitchen counter, holding her
arm. She looked to Erin and nodded that she was ok. Erin pushed herself up as someone moved beyond Kristen.
The blonde stood still in a crouch, ready to react if she needed to. She watched the kitchen floor intently as
someone stepped into view.
"You two ok?"
Erin looked up and nearly collapsed with relief as her eyes settled in on Henderson's face. The writer nudged a
lifeless Kristen with her boot and then lowered her gun.
Erin went to her lover to make sure she was alright. Adams stood trembling, but ok. Erin then turned to
Henderson.
"We need an ambulance."
Henderson nodded and flipped open her phone to dial 911.
"I need to go check on Jay." Adams said softly, moving past her lover. Erin nodded and watched her wounded
lover walk unsteadily over to her sister.
"Jay?" Adams whispered, reaching out to touch her arm. Jay stood suddenly, almost as if she were afraid. She
looked around wildly and touched her head. A large knot had already formed where Kristen had hit her.
"Jay?" Adams said again, needed her to focus.
Jay looked at her sister and saw the blood oozing down her arm.
"I'm sorry Lizzie, I'm so sorry." She let out, nearly weeping with guilt and defeat.
"Shh. Nevermind." Adams said quickly. She looked back to Erin and Henderson and then dug in her pocket.
"Here." She said, shoving a large folded stack of bills in her sister's hand. She then took her sister by the hand
and led her into the bedroom where she snatched up her satellite phone from the night table. "Take it." She said
handing it to her sister. "Take it and go." She whispered hurriedly.
"What?" Jay said, shaking her head in confusion.
"Go Jay. Get out of here now."
"But& "
"No!" Adams said a little louder. "Get out of here. Go to Mexico. I'll call you on the satellite phone to make
sure you have what you need."
"But after what I done& "
"It doesn't matter. You did what you thought was right." She looked back towards the kitchen and saw
Henderson and Erin bent over Kristen. "The police won't understand that, Jay." She met and held her eyes.
"They'll lock you away forever."
Jay looked at her sister in silence.
"Just promise me you won't hurt anyone else."
Jay looked down and nodded.
"I'm going to get you some help, but not here. You'll never get it here. Now go."
She motioned for Jay to go out the patio door from the master bedroom. Jay took a step, then hesitated.
"I love you, Lizzie." She choked out.
"I love you too, Jay." Adams whispered as she watched her sister slip out the door and into the night.
Erin removed her hand from Kristen neck. She had been checking for a pulse, needing to know for sure that the
woman was dead.
"No pulse." She confirmed as she and Henderson then stood. She looked to the writer who looked as visibly
shaken as she herself felt. "Please tell me you heard." She said, needing for the whole thing to finally be over.
Henderson looked up at her and nodded. "I heard enough."
Erin sighed and nearly sobbed with relief. "What were you doing here?" She asked, grateful beyond words that
she had been.
"I needed to talk to you about Jay. But your phone was off the hook and I got worried."
Erin started to voice her profound thanks but she stopped short when she saw Adams stagger back in from the
bedroom.
"Oh my God." Erin let out, running to her. "Lay down." She insisted as she helped her weak lover ease down to
the floor. "Just relax. They're almost here." She encouraged softly. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
