CLOSE TO YOU: Enhanced (Lost Hearts) - Plot & Excerpts
That Winston guy might be strung out on drugs, but he had a great alibi—he had been in jail for the last week for DUI and possession, and he'd posted bail only two days before. So he was no longer a suspect. Teague adjusted the weight on the tricep machine and began a slow, steady lift. Teague had frightened people before with his rage. The first time he'd done it, he had been fifteen. His mother had been drunk. From the time he was a kid, he'd carried the marks of her belt on his back. In the past, she had slapped him hard enough to cut his face with her cheap rings. This time, she'd come at him, fingernails bared, and she'd opened his cheek with her claws. This time, as the blood trickled off his chin, he'd had it. He'd grabbed her hands: that's all, just grabbed them, and looked at her.
