Chapter 131

Ace

It’s a slow night in Laurel Springs – my kind of night to be honest. When there aren’t people acting insane and hell bent on breaking the law. I’m an hour away from going off shift and ready to Netflix and spend some time with Violet. We’ve been good since our interlude on the couch, but I’m unsure how much longer I’ll be able to keep my hands off of her. She’s an itch I can’t scratch, a temptation I can’t give into.

Sitting on the side of the highway, I’m randomly clocking speed while finishing up some of the reports I have lingering from earlier in the night. A few cars have gone by about five over the speed limit, and I’ve let them go because it’s only going to cause me more paperwork. There’s something else I want to see tonight rather than a stack of reports. I’m finishing up the last paper to work on when a car goes screaming by me. I glance at the mounted radar, whistling when I see they were easily twenty-five over.
