Wicked Blood Page #3

Before you know it,

I'll be giving product away.

I've got a business to run here.

Are you gonna sit here and take

this happy horse sh*t...

Shut the f*** up, Jackson.

You really should keep

a muzzle on your pooch here.

This is f***ing stupid.

- What?

- Huh?

What'd you say?

What, are you retarded?

You ripped us off and we're

supposed to sit here

and take it up the ass?

Hell, no.

- Bobby!

- Hey!

- Sit down...

- I'm warning you.

I said sit down.

I am.

Price just went up.

You come in here and insult me,

accuse me of cheating.

Price just went up.

Frank.

Look, you don't like it,

go shop somewhere else.

I'm tired of kissing his ass.

We outnumber them ten to one.

You give me the word and I'll

kill him and his psycho brother.

No.

What do you mean "no"?

I mean no.

You going soft?

Is it the girl?

It ain't the girl.

We need time.

Time for what?

Jackson.

Fine.

You think it was them?

Hell, yeah, it was them.

You okay?

Oh...

my head's pounding

like a f***ing drum.

You know, back in

the middle ages,

if you disrespected the King...

you got killed.

Yeah, well, this ain't

the middle ages.

We got to get these

hillbillies in line.

We got to show 'em

who's boss, you know?

I mean, they're, they're

beginning to forget, you know?

We got to teach them

some respect.

So... you don't know

anything about this?

Hell no, Frank.

You know...

Using a little bit here and

there, you know, just a taste.

I got no reason to steal

my own sh*t.

You stop anywhere?

See anyone?

No, sir.

You lying to me, girl?

I can smell a liar a mile away.

No, sir.

She don't know nothing

about this, Frank.

Okay, you can go.

What the hell was that, huh?

I don't know.

I know you, Hannah Lee Baker,

and you're up to something.

Don't go messing around

with your Uncle Frank, all right?

Promise me you're not

up to something?

Okay.

For real?

Cross my heart and hope to die.

You're just like your daddy.

Smart as a whip.

Stubborn as a mule.

The Knight is knowledge,

how to fight,

against his prince's enemies.

He never makes his walk

outright, but leaps and skips,

and wily wise to take

by sleight a traitorous foe,

might slyly seek their

overthrow.

Who's stupid now, huh?

Who's stupid now?

Hey.

Hey.

Here.

What's the matter?

Two of my boys

got killed last night.

I'm really sorry.

Know anything about it?

Hmm?

No.

Frank say nothing?

L-I just... deliver

packages.

Why... you think

Uncle Frank did it?

No, no, uh...

His brother.

Bobby?

Mm-hmm.

So, what are you gonna do?

Nothing.

Why not?

'Cause I need this.

I could help you.

The Rooks are reason

on both sides,

which keep

the corner houses still.

And warily stand

to watch their tides,

by secret art

to work their will.

To take some time

a thief unseen,

might mischief mean

to King or Queen.

What are you doing here?

I thought you were

gonna quit that stuff.

I will.

When?

When I feel like it, I guess.

When are you gonna feel like it?

I don't know, Hannah.

Did you come over here

to lecture me?

I mean, you're not

my mama, you know.

I know!

But that stuff is gonna

kill you if you don't quit.

I got it under control.

I mean, I... I just need a little taste

for the day, you know?

You're never gonna

quit this stuff.

You gotta make a change.

A change?

Look around you, Hannah,

there's no change.

There can be, but we

have to start right now.

Now... How?

Bill Owens.

Bill... Bill Owens?

Yeah.

Bill Owens?

That's your plan...

Bill Owens?

You leave Frank

and you go work for Bill.

Hannah, sweetie.

The only way I'm leaving

Frank is in a body bag.

So you're just scared of him?

F***ing right I'm scared of him.

You, little girl, have no idea

of what the Stinsons

are capable of!

You have no idea

of what I'm capable of.

Hannah.

Don't.

What do you mean?

That stuff is gonna kill you.

Hannah.

So, when am I gonna meet

your Uncle Donny?

Never.

Why?

I don't know.

Get his blessing.

Don't need it.

He's an embarrassment.

I think I'm an

embarrassment to you.

Well, the age thing.

Stop it.

It's silly.

Hey.

Hi.

What are you watching?

Uh, creepy crawlies.

Creepy crawlies.

That's what daddy

used to call them.

I miss him.

Me too.

I need to tell you something.

I'm moving out.

What?

I'm moving in with someone.

Who?

His name is Bill.

Bill Owens.

Bill Owens?

Yeah, you know him?

Wait... is that the person

that you've been seeing?

Yeah, how do you know Bill?

Just from around.

I like Bill.

Me too.

There's finally

something we agree on.

Yeah, I guess.

You know, Uncle Frank

ain't gonna like that.

I don't really care

what he likes.

Think he's up to something?

Of course he's up to something.

Christ.

Can't Donny keep

a couple of girls in line?

Can't trust that useless

drug addict for nothing.

Okay, I'll talk to her.

I'm sick of dealing

with these a**holes.

They think they're

better than us.

We should just cut 'em out.

We don't have

the distribution chain.

I'll handle the business.

You fetch me Amber.

It's really loud!

Louder, the better.

She fast?

That was awesome.

We'll make a biker

out of you yet.

Amber told me.

About you and her.

You cool with that?

I guess.

'Cause I sure as hell

am too old for you.

Yeah.

Does she know about our deal?

No.

No, the less she knows about

our business, the better.

So...

You gonna take care of us?

Yes, ma'am.

Okay.

Check.

Hmm.

Mm-mm.

That's my piece,

what are you doing?

Mm-mm.

What, then?

Well, you can't win.

You can force a draw, though.

What if I don't want a draw?

Well, it's lose or draw.

Your choice.

It's a sad state when you get

your ass handed to you

by a teenager.

Yeah, you want to play again?

Yeah.

Rack 'em up, Bobby Fischer.

Sh*t.

So, what we talked about.

Did you think about it?

Yeah, I thought about it.

And?

And as long as Frank's alive

and I'm still cooking,

he ain't ever gonna

let me leave, Hannah.

Can I tell you something?

Yeah.

You know the missing drugs?

Yeah, Frank's missing drugs,

I heard about 'em.

So... that was me,

- but...

- What?

- If you could just listen for a second...

- That was you?

But I just...

- If you could just listen to me.

- Are you selling Frank's drugs?

- Could you listen to me?

- Are you crazy?

- Okay, well you're clearly

- What the hell

- not gonna listen to me.

- Are you doing, Hannah?

- So I'm just gonna go.

- Wait, wait... woah, woah, wait.

I'm sorry.

Are you going to listen?

Yeah.

I have a plan.

All right.

What?

We move in with Bill

until this blows over.

He'll take care of us.

All of us.

We can be a family again.

A real family.

I'll try.

I'll try.

I'm starving.

What do you got?

Kitchen's closed.

How about a piece of pie?

Are you deaf?

I said it's closed.

You don't seem like you're

too happy to see me.

That's because

every time I see you,

Uncle Frank wants something.

Well, he wants to see you.

Now.

I worked a really long day.

I'm tired.
