And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie) novel Chapter 293

"You're such a bitter bitch. You did this, didn't you? You slashed my fucking tires because they told you, you couldn't go to school. What kind of sadistic whore are you?"

I had forgotten my father and mother were both standing here as I spoke to her, the anger trickling out of me. Her eyes went wide, her mouth parted as she looked at Talon. "See what I mean? He constantly blames me for everything. I was literally inside. I just came out here."

"Lux, it is absolutely unacceptable you would speak to your sister like that and blame her for something when she was literally inside. I checked in on her this morning and she was sleeping." My mother gasped as she stared at me, absolutely mortified I would speak to Cassie that way.

"Oh, come on. You and I both know that she did this. She's fucking pissed because you won't let her go to school and you're forcing her to go through with the agreement. I heard the entire conversation last night. Do you really think she's going to be okay with me being able to go and her having to stay here and miss out on everything?"

It didn't make any sense why my sister would lash out like this, and for a brief moment, I started to doubt whether I had assumed wrong.

"Look, son. You need to apologize to your sister. As for the truck, take one of your other rides. You have your motorcycle," Talon replied, obviously angry, but trying to keep himself together.

With a groan of protest, I tossed my keys to my truck on the ground and opened the garage. The problem was, as soon as the garage door opened, it was clear I wouldn't be taking my motorcycle either, because the front tire on that had been slashed as well.
