Chapter 3
“That man I killed. He was rich. I stole his horses.” James’ sentences were short – he was desperately trying to catch his breath.
“Yeah? And who was this man you speak of?”
“My former boss. Lance Woodright. Some English prick with a horse fetish. I stole his horses out of spite.”
“I’ve heard of him. What exactly was your job?” Jax pretended believe James – he wanted to know whether or not anything coming out of James’ mouth was the truth or not. James, on the other hand, had made it all up and knew Jax was just pretending. Jax couldn’t have known a man who didn’t exist.
“I was a carpenter. A damn good one. But then I started showing up drunk to work, and he fired me.” James slowly got back up onto his feet and wiped the blood that was oozing from his nose.
Jax was somewhat amused by his made up story, but didn’t feel like losing any more time. “All you say is lies. Lies, lies, lies.” Jax crouched down next to Tom who was lying flat on the ground, unconscious. “Tell me, would you be more willing to talk if I hurt him instead?” He glid his hand slowly over Tom’s hair.

in the comments below leave me a clue,
an idea for a story you'd love to read,
a journey to the unknown my keyboard will lead.

"Some English prick with a horse fetish." (I choked on my tea at this line!) It's too bad Jax didn't want to let James continue his story, the man spins a good yarn!
The two for one deal can be either 2 sock sandwiches for the price of one or a double decker socktastic sandwich at no additional cost! (And I knew you'd get the troll joke! 😜)
Today's prompt is being performed by the Freewrite Deku Choir! (They've asked that the citizens of Freewrite please extinguish all flames while they sing as they are a flammable species!)
Hope you had one of those fancy napkins of yours to tidy yourself right up!
He does, doesn't he? Quite the brain for such a brute.
Who can say no to such a tasty-sounding double-decker?!!? I'll have one as soon as it's ready, please! :D
