hospital, doctor’s, cabins to rent from by
one of the local women. The people on the most part minded there
own business, stuck to their little clicks or groups of people. For
Seeker and his companions it was perfect place to be. Seeker and
Telme decided it was a nice out of the way place where no one asked
questions and no answers were given.
Telme was
dating a different girl each week. Seeker had been down that road
and now didn’t feel it was worth another trip at the moment. Sure
it was fun, but sometimes hard feelings were also caused, he didn’t
feel up to that kind of pressure on him at the moment. He knew he
had changed since Cue’s death. He wanted more out of life then just
fast dates, and quick relationships. His father had told him that
he would change and at the time he had laughed; now he realized
just how right his father was.
Seeker was
sitting at the bar when his cell phone rang. He walked off by
himself to a table nearby where he could not be heard talking on
the phone by anyone. Seeker took the phone from his pocket and
answered, “Hello you have reached Seeker!”
The woman on
the other end of the line spoke softly, “Listen and listen
carefully, I can’t give you my name at the moment, but you should
know Melrodger is out to have you killed. He contacted me to do the
job, but after investigating you, and to find you innocent of
Melrodger’s declarations of responsibilities of Cue’s death. Let’s
just say I turned the job down!”
Seeker
grimaced, “Who the hell is this?”
The woman
spoke again, “watch your back I will contact you again soon and
keep you informed as to what is transpiring.” The phone in his hand
went silent.
Seeker walked
back to the bar pulled Telme away from his newest date and when
Telme didn’t want to leave Seeker growled. Telme got up off of this
stool and they both walked out the front door of the bar and Seeker
looked around to see if anyone was near and then be began to speak
to Telme “Listen Telme, I got a call from a woman saying my life is
in jeopardy, and to watch my back. I have this feeling that this is
no joke, and I should be careful. Knowing who wants the hit on me
makes it easier on me, because I know what kind of man Melrodger
is. I would put nothing pass the son of a bitch. I believe the
caller. Seeker proceeded to explain about Cue and what
happened.
Telme spoke,
“That is unbelievable, Cue refused to leave the table when you told
him to, then he is accountable for what had happened to him the
blame shouldn’t be placed on anyone else but himself, so why the
hell is his father pissed at you?”
“Melrodger
feels I should have enforced Cue to leave, if the man was
treacherous, then we both could have faced him and then maybe Cue
would not be dead now. Cue was Melrodger’s only son and heir to the
estate, it is set up in such a way that only the sons can inherit
the estate, females are forbidden to inherit anything. Melrodger
has two daughters and another son who killed himself by accident or
so they say. That in itself is a long story, so to make it short
his oldest son was not acceptable and Melrodger turned his back on
him so the young man killed himself, the suicide was covered up by
Melrodger. That left Cue with being the only son to inherit the
estate. I am not sure Cue was all there at times, he was one hell
of a nice guy, but he did some freaky shit at times. ”
“Damn Seeker
that is the worst. Melrodger must have been a selfish son of a
bitch of a hard man to have done that to his own son!”
“Yes it was,
and now he wants me dead he feels it was my fault for his son’s
death. And the man who killed Cue is now dead, that means Melrodger
hired someone to do the job, more then likely it was the woman who
called me! Why she is taking an opportunity on losing her own life
to save mine has me confused.”
Telme laughed,
“Maybe she has the hot’s for you, or maybe she just likes you, or
more then likely she thinks you’re
