Into The Night. Cynthia Eden
* * *
HE COULD ALMOST understand why Patrick Remus had used fire. The flames were quite beautiful. And very, very powerful.
From the woods, he watched as the cabin exploded. The windows blew out, sending glass shards everywhere. Chunks of the roof flew into the sky. Burning wood littered the ground. And those flames just kept raging, destroying everything in sight.
The FBI agents had arrived and they’d done exactly what he wanted. They’d gone into the cabin. They’d stepped right into his trap.
And he’d sent the fire after them. Fire to consume Patrick. Fire to teach the agents a lesson.
No one is above my justice. The agents thought they were so good at hunting killers. Knowing them, from the inside out.
They knew nothing. He was the one with the answers. He was the one who could see the killers. And now, thanks to the work he’d done, everyone would be seeing him.
He backed away, knowing that he couldn’t linger. The agents had gotten out. He’d watched their frantic race to safety. Their escape hadn’t upset him. After all, it was what he’d wanted. He hadn’t intended for them to die in that cabin, but he had wanted to teach them a lesson. Maybe they’d have a few scars to help them remember this night.
The night I proved I was better than you.
If he’d wanted them to die, he would have boarded up that back window. Covered all the glass. Covered the windows for every room in that cabin. Instead, he’d just nailed them shut. He’d given them a challenge. Not death.
He was smiling as he backed away.
The flames kept shooting into the sky. He knew those flames would attract attention, and it was the attention he deserved. His time to shine. His.
He’d taken out two of the FBI’s most wanted. The world owed him a debt of thanks. He’d collect on it. On that, and everything else that he was owed.
It was finally his time to shine.
