Excerpt

“Dix, untie me now!”

Dixie’s hands begin to tremble, and her dark thoughts spin around inside her mind as the anger of him calling her Dix wells up within her chest like a rabid dog, “I told you if you call me Dix again, I’d kill you, did you think I was joking?”

Bruce’s eyes go wide.

“Did YOU?!” Dixie screams!

“Yeh, Yes, I did!” He answers as fear rises into his throat.

“Yeh, yeh, yes! Spit it out, Bruce!” Dixie yells sarcastically.

Bruce lowers his head to collect his thoughts and devise a plan to get Dixie to let him go. “Dixie, who is Jimmy? Can I be Jimmy?”

Dixie’s face contorts to an evil he’s never seen before, and genuine fear has now set into Bruce.

“Do you want to be Jimmy?” Dixie asks calmly.

Bruce, thinking he’s going to outsmart her, answers, “Yes, I want to be Jimmy, baby.”

Dixie Lee’s face becomes red with the agitation of his answer. She rubs the back of her neck as she contemplates her next move. She abruptly walks past him into the building when she spots a piece of heavy steel about a foot and a half long; she bends down and grabs it off the floor, holding it tightly into her grasp, and returns to where Bruce is sitting in the chair trying to figure out how to get his hands untied.

Dixie has the steel down her side and walks up to Bruce bending into his face, “You really want to be Jimmy, baby?”

Bruce reluctantly nods his head yes.

“I can’t hear you!” Dixie taunts.

“Yes, Dix, I want to be Jimmy!” Bruce is unaware his reverse psychology isn’t working on Dixie.

Dixie bends in, kissing him on his cheek, and then whispers, “Jimmy was my husband, and I murdered him!”
