DAY TWELVE–SEPTEMBER 16
FRIDAY AFTERNOON
Draven found a perfect grove of trees in the open space about a half mile behind Davica Holland’s house. He looked around one last time, still saw no one even remotely close, and then lay down flat next to a log. A stick pushed against his stomach. He pulled it out and threw it to the side.
There.
Perfect.
This would work.
He got up long enough to pull a pair of Bushnell binoculars out of the backpack, then flopped back on his belly and pulled in the view.
Damn!
Davica Holland was in the backyard by the pool, reclined in a lounger, facing his direction, pointing her chin at the sun.
Totally naked.
Nicely tanned.
Her feet were comfortably apart. He studied the area between her legs and decided that he was actually seeing her p-ssy.
The corner of his mouth turned up.
“Sweet.”
The woman was hot—not just mildly hot, sizzling hot. He already knew that after he snatched her, before he turned her over to the client, he’d spend more than a little quality time with her.
Maybe even a full day.
In fact, definitely a full day.
Maybe two.
He could already feel his cock between her legs.
And sandwiched between her tits.
“Oh, man.”
She shifted in the lounger, pulling her arms over her head to tan her armpits.
So nice.
So incredibly sexy.
He pulled the lens away from her long enough to train on the house, looking for a way in. From what he could tell, there were at least three doors on this side of the house. Also, there was a window well on the south edge of the structure, near the back. He could hop down into it and be out of sight, then pry open the window with a crowbar.
Lots of options.
The big issue is whether she had an alarm system. He hadn’t seen any signs in her front yard warning of one. Even if she had one, he’d probably be able to get to her pretty fast if he came for her while she was sleeping. Then he could get her out the back, through the open space to his car, and be gone by the time anyone pulled up to the front of the house.
He trained the binoculars back on her.
She was masturbating now.
Keeping the binoculars in his right hand, he shoved his left hand down his pants and rubbed his cock, picturing his cum on her face.
In one minute he was rock hard.
He maintained control, timing it so that he came exactly when she did.
Later that afternoon, Draven was back at the farmhouse, throwing rocks at squirrels and anything else that moved, when Swofford called. “The client’s supposed to be getting into Denver soon to finish off the tattoo woman.”
“He better be,” Draven said. “I’m sick of having her around. She’s a serous liability at this point.”
“Agreed. I told him twenty-four hours, max. We can’t wait any longer than that.”
“Good,” Draven said. A robin perched on a limb, about fifty feet away, chirping. Draven threw a rock at it, missing by more than five feet but scaring it enough to send it scrambling into the sky. “Also, we got a slight complication at the cabin. Apparently some water guys are going to be coming around to check out the well for some stupid reason. They’re only going to be there a couple of minutes and won’t need to go into the house or anything, but I’m not sure when they’re coming, so I moved the woman over to the place I’m staying at in the meantime.”
“Smart move. God, nothing’s easy.”
“You got that right,” Draven said. “Anyway, I positioned some wood by the well, which they’ll have to move, so I’ll know when they’ve been there.”
“Well, tomorrow’s Saturday,” Swofford said. “We won’t have to worry about them over the weekend.”
Draven agreed.
“Changing subjects, how are you coming along with Davica Holland?”
“Circling and closing,” Draven said.
“Good.”
“She’s a looker,” he added.
“So I hear. Just remember to not mark her up. That’s for the client to do. He’s very insistent on that.”
