Where in the fuck did this chick live?

A small creek ran along the dirt road, which he could see through the dense trees sporadically. As he went over a small bridge, which seemed barely wide enough to get accommodate a car, he gritted his teeth when he had to return to even more gravely road. Seeing it was winding up the side of the mountain before it disappeared from sight, Moon decided he’d had enough.

He found a clear spot off the road and parked his bike. Then, taking off, he started sprinting upward. When he reached the top, he was given a full view of the house he was trying to reach.

“Holy shit!”

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

“Are you still there?” Larissa softly asked Crazy Bitch through the speaker phone as she drove.

“I’m here.”

“I wish I were there with you.”

“You’re better off where you are.”

Crazy Bitch’s rejoinder didn’t frighten her.

“Anna-Kate, I wish there were something I could say that could make the disappointment easier. There’s no magical way to conceive a baby, except time. You’ve had all the tests done, and Calder’s sperm has been analyzed. What you’re going through, thousands of other women have gone through. Cherish this time you and Calder are spending alone. Enjoy it while you can. Once you have a baby … believe me, there won’t be any alone or couple time for years. Make the most of it instead of looking at it as a negative. Follow the diet I gave you, continue taking the vitamins, and for God’s sake, quit stressing yourself out. You and Calder should take a week off and fly somewhere with plenty of sun. Have a bunch of randy sex not because you want a baby but to have a mind-blowing orgasm. Take making a baby out of the mix and just have sex for the pleasure of being close to that damn good-looking man you’re married to.”

Larissa faintly heard a sniffle on the other end of phone.

“You want my man, don’t you?”

“It wouldn’t do me any good. Calder only has eyes for you.”

“It’s not his eyes I’m worried about.”

“A baby isn’t going to keep a man from cheating,” Larissa told her. “Nor will it make him stay if he wants to go. Don’t borrow trouble where there isn’t any. Go on vacation, lotion Calder up with sunscreen, and let nature take its course.”

“Fuck it, I will,” Crazy Bitch snapped. “But if I’m not knocked up next month, I’m going to beat your ass.”

“You couldn’t harm a fly,” she teased. “Can I talk to Priscilla?”

“I guess. By the way, she called the cops on you.”

“What did you just say?” Larissa was listening to the call from her car speaker. Had she heard Crazy Bitch wrong?

Priscilla’s voice came on “Are you still there, Larissa?”

“Yes. Did I hear Crazy Bitch right? Did you call the police?”

“I didn’t want you going alone,” Priscilla said unapologetically. “You know the statistics as well as I do. IPV increases when a woman becomes pregnant. Dusty has a restraining order to stay away from Eryn.”

“Eryn told me she was going to drop it. He has a girlfriend in Tennessee. I called him before you; Dusty doesn’t want anything to do with her. He said he’s moved on and hasn’t talked to or seen her.”

“Dusty could be saying that to give himself an alibi.”

“He could be, but I don’t think so. Hang on; I need to concentrate. I’m trying to find her turnoff.”

She would have missed the turnoff for Eryn’s house if she hadn’t memorized the directions before leaving the office. When she had taken Eryn on as a patient, the first step was to go to the home. Using the excuse that her husband worked nights and Dusty slept during the day, the home visit had been delayed. Then, when they had broken up, Eryn had come up with various excuses to put her off. She had been about to give her an ultimatum if she had come yesterday that she wouldn’t be able to be her midwife if she didn’t schedule the home meeting.

The rutted road had her Jeep bouncing as she followed the directions. Then she held her breath when she went over the small bridge, which seemed ready to collapse under the weight of the Jeep.

“Wow,” Larissa breathed out a sigh of relief.

“What’s going on?” Priscilla voice came from the speaker anxiously.

“Nothing,” Larissa reassured her. “It’s a good thing I did come out. There’s no way I can be her midwife unless she comes to the hospital. An ambulance wouldn’t be able to get to her if there’s an emergency.”

“Why didn’t Eryn say something?”

“I have no idea, but I’m pretty sure that’s why she put me off on the home visit.”

Driving forward, she climbed the nob of the mountain, then went down the slope on the other side. The house she was searching for had finally become visible. Eryn’s home sat on top of another rise, with several vehicles sitting to the side of home.
