from bleeding.  Tommy didn’t know what to make of it and Hannah didn’t send a message, just picture after picture of Willa.  At work, in her car, with the group in front of her apartment.  She was letting him know she was in control.  He’d called Preach and insisted on having someone sent out right away, but he still couldn’t settle down.  They had another run to make before they started home and the damned trucker was as green as grass.  He had spent the last hour in the shitter and Tommy was about ready to drive the damned rig himself.  He had to get home.  Preach had said Mina would be there under protection for the weekend and he wanted to get his hands on her again.  She needed to get a few things straight in her head and he needed her to tell him what had really happened all those years ago once and for all.  He had to decide to love her or hate her and right now the battle was undecided.  What he did know is that she belonged to him and he would be the only one to take her life if it needed taking.
    He felt his dick go hard and knew he was a sick bastard.  It wasn’t the thought of hurting her that made him hard, but the knowledge that he could and she would let him.  She would walk right into his arms and let him choke the life out of her, but the slap she had landed across his face that night on Spec’s porch told him she was also strong enough to handle him.  He had never wanted a woman so much in his life.  She’d stood up to him.  He had wanted to see his mother do that more times than he could count, but she’d never had the guts.  She’d never stood up to the man that had terrorized her and her son.
    Willa had taken what he had given that night because she’d wanted him as much as he’d wanted her, but she stood up for herself too.  He saw her agony and the sting in his cheek was less than he deserved.  She wouldn’t let him walk on her and she would kill him if he ever hurt her like his father had hurt his mother.
    He rubbed his hands over his face and let that sink in.  It was a fear and he admitted it now.  He had pushed her away to keep from hurting her and becoming the monster his father had become.  He didn’t know if it was all true, but he wanted to believe Willa and deny her with equal determination.  How could his father have done that, but he knew the man was mean to the bone and he knew that no matter what he had done, Willa would never have hurt him that way.
    His heart almost shattered in his chest as he tried to hold onto his anger at the woman he had loved and found peace in most of his life.  His father had always taken away his peace, always.
    The trucker emerged from the diner and looked a little less like a fucking zombie.
    “I’m ready to roll boys.  Sorry about this.  No idea what has me so tore up, I can usually eat anything.”
    Tommy didn’t speak, just nodded and motioned for the boys to get ready to ride.  They would be home by the weekend and hopefully everything would get straightened out for once.

    Mina was dressed in a black dress with a plunging neckline, but she had paired it with a lacey red tank top to make it more appropriate for work.  She had also worn a lacey red hem extender to bring the hem down to her knees.  That paired with her knee-high boots and a long black cape lined in blood red to match her tank and extender finished out her look.  She had left her long black hair flowing down her back in big waves and wore a pair of glow in the dark vampire teeth.  She had to admit she looked pretty awesome. 
    She leaned close to the bathroom mirror to apply the black liner to her eyes before applying dark shadow to her eyes.  She kept it toned down, but planned a much more dramatic look for the party.  Her lips were blood red and shiny thanks to the gloss she slathered on them.  She used pale powder to give her the look of the undead and used a dark bronzer to shadow her cheeks.
    She couldn’t help the skip
