Chapter 12

I sighed heavily and said, "You've gotta be fuckin kidding me!"

"Nah I aint it's the truth. Hasn't Wayne told you yet?" Leshawn asked.

"No but he did call to tell me he's coming late and that there's a situation and he's needed. I guess this is the situation." I replied.

"Oh yeah. I'll even bet money on it."

"Do you maybe know where they found his body?" I asked.

I heard him sigh, "The BnB in town. In the expensive room of all places."

I then asked, "How the hell did his killer get him there?"

"I don't know you gotta ask Wayne that but fuck man. What the hell is going on in this town? These killings are making folk scared. First Susannah, Roy and you get shot, the DA's PA and now Brycen. No man this is getting too much." Leshawn complained.

I agreed, "It is and it must be put to a stop."

"Licia do you think there could be a serial killer on the loose again?"

"I don't think so. I think it's a different person doing these killings." I replied.

"Really? Why you say that?"

I bit my lip but spoke, "I don't know I guess it's my gut feeling."

"Okay if you find out more let me know."

"Will do."

We said bye and I hung up.

I looked at the note and read it again. My blood starts boiling and I snatch the envelope and my phone. I walked with determination to the bedroom and toss my stuff on the bed. I go to the safe, enter the code and take my gun and magazine out.

I put the magazine in and hear the click. I pull the slider and take a deep breath. I start pacing the room with the gun in my hand and sigh heavily at the dangerous thoughts in my head. I put the gun down on the bed and take my phone.

I dial Beau's number and wait for him to answer.

He answers, "it's gotta be important if you're calling at this hour. If you're calling about an update on Harris I'm still busy..."

"Fuck Harris the bitch can wait. I called about something else." I said with a chill in my voice.

"Uh-uh what happened now?" he whined.

"I've just gotten another death threat." I explain.

He sighs heavily, "not again!"

"Yes again."

"And who is it this time?" he asks.

I answer, "Tara."

"Tara? From the diner Tara?" he asks shocked.

"Yes."

"Why does she feel she needs to threaten you?"

"Cos I'm on to her. I know that she's the one killing people in town."

"Hold up wait a sec! What about killing people? You think she's the one that killed Susannah and shot you and Roy?"

I sighed, "No not us the other people."

I then started explaining from the beginning. I told him about the DA's PA death and the events that occurred before her death and how that made me suspicious of Tara.

"Yeah but that could've been just a coincidence." Beau suggests.

I suck my cheek and explain, "No it's not. I called her on her cell and it went to voicemail. I then called the diner and she didn't come in to work. So I went to her house and her mama told me she aint there. I found out later she apparently took Jayden to go visit family who live out of town."
