Hazel in the Demon's Den

“I’ll marry anyone who will take me!” Hazel declared loudly. “I don’t need love!” “Get down!” Will hissed. “You don’t know what kind of people are lurking around in here! Talking like that might get you killed!” == Hazel Dixon thought she was putting her troubled past behind her. But when the person she thought she trusted most betrays her, she loses her head and proposes to an entire bar full of strangers. Enter Will Sheffield, a charming stranger who decides to take her up on her offer to save her from herself. He spoils her rotten without expecting anything in return and Hazel's confusion only grows. She doesn't know why he is acting this way. Or why he reminds her so much of the 'dangerous' childhood friend she thought was gone forever... *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

It's Kind Of Sudden But...

Will hid his bloody clothes in the shed for now, intending to get rid of them permanently in the middle of the night when Hazel was asleep. Now he had to get inside and explain why he had been gone so long.

It turned out to be unnecessary. She had fallen asleep while drawing and even the sound of the blast hadn't woken her. Well, it had been a few miles away.

He quietly crept away to burn the clothes now. It was better not to wake her. He could pretend he had been here the entire time when she eventually got up on her own.

Now that one problem was dealt with, Will had other things to think about. Like Abramson. Roberto hadn't mentioned when their weekly check-ins were supposed to be. It would probably be better to kill him sooner rather than later.

If he left on a "business trip" first thing in the morning, he could take care of that annoyance first. It had been tempting to kill him anyway simply because of what nonsense he wrote but Will hadn't wanted to be implicated.
