LUKE

My mind went blank, and I just stared at Ethan. We both agreed to get Nick help, and he was the one who was insisting on we do that. I didn’t know what changed between then and now. could they have met, and Nick said something to make his best friend think he was a psychopath?

“Luke, please believe me. I know you like Nick, he is your nephew. But I am not making this up, I don’t know how I didn’t notice this before, but then again, psychopaths are manipulative and are incredibly good in making people believe and see what they want them to see.”

Goodness! He was serious, what the hell did Nick do to get than so spooked? “Calm down Ethan and tell me what happened that got you so worked up.” He sighed, opened, and closed his mouth like a fish out of the water. noveldrama

Ethan was shaken when he saw the state Xander was in, but he was not as spooked as he was at that moment. Do you have something to drink in your car? I need it.” I opened the car, took out a drink in the glovebox, and handed

it to him.

He drank a mouthful of that thing and didn’t even seem to feel the burning sensation in his throat as it went down. Well, I guess it didn’t burn that much since it was good whisky. “He still has the skin.” Now he was not making sense.

It looked like I wasted my drink on him. it was supposed to calm him down, but it was making him confused instead. Do I indulge him or just ignore him and leave. “Luke, Nick still has Xander’s skin!” Shit!

“Oh shit! Ethan, do you mean the skin, skin? The one he pealed off him?” my mind was going a hundred miles hours, racing and different scenarios playing in my head, but I couldn’t concentrate on one thing.

“That is what I mean, psychopath!” Why would Nick keep the skin? The boy was now behaving like a serial killer keeping souvenirs from his kills. Just what the fuck was he thinking?

“What does he do with the skin, why keep it?” Goodness! Just thinking about it made my stomach churn. “That is what I am saying! He told me that it helps calms him down, who does that?” No, it could not be.

If that were true then it would mean my nephew was sick in the head, twisted and very scary. “Luke, what are we going to do? When I spoke to him, he made it sound like he wanted to kill again. Why didn’t you tell me that he killed Sandra?”

The whole thing was just driving me insane. How could this be? “Are sure you he wasn’t pulling your leg? Said all those things as a defence mechanism, like you did when Marcus confronted you about kissing his wife?”

Ethan glared at me, how did he think I was going to do? I wasn’t about to just blindly believe that my nephew was something…heartless and cunning. “I thought so too when he mentioned it. but anger like that cant be faked. He was really angry and when he spoke about the skin, he looked satisfied and…happy.”

Oh Lord, no it could be true. I would have to go and see for myself. “Even if that is true, what can we do? It’s not like we can send him to therapy, that will get him arrested very quickly.” Ethan who now looked drunk.

I couldn’t believe that one drink got him drunk, maybe he drank something before coming to see me. “It’s like you don’t understand the severity of this thing. The man is a danger to society and we as the people close to him have a duty to help him and prevent him from harming people.”

“Ethan, tell me something, do you truly think that he is a danger to society or a danger to the dangerous people who target those he loves?” I didn’t know why I asked that maybe I was trying to justify what he did or maybe I didn’t want to believe that he could be capable of something like that.

“What are you talking about, is this about Nick?” I froze, that was Olivia. I didn’t want her to get the wrong idea

about Nick, he was the father of her kid and if she thought he was dangerous, then Nick, might lose visiting rights

to his son.

Yes, it is about Nick, he is not well I believe he is a…”

“A nuisance! Ethan tried talking to him about an issue, but he wouldn’t listen. But don’t worry, I will talk to him and make sure he understands.” I cut Ethan off, he sent a glare my way. He wasn’t happy that I was hiding the issue from Olivia.

“It’s fine, we need to leave now and Ethan. You are driving with my dad, you are drunk, I don’t know why you would drink so early in the morning.” She said then walked away, leaving Ethan mumbling something under his breath.

“What is wrong with you, are you a doctor?” He frowned. “You can’t go around saying Nick is a psychopath when you have not gotten him diagnosed by a doctor, right now, what you said is just an assumption. If you tell Olivia this now, she might stop Nick from seeing his son fearing that he might hurt him. Do you think that is fair?” Ethan didn’t reply to me immediately, he just looked at me to a point that I got nervous for some reason. “You don’t have a sense of urgency, Luke. Nick already killed someone and skinned another alive. Kept his skin and keeps looking at it and doing God knows what else with it. do you think someone like that deserves to have children or be around them?”

Now he was being ridiculous. “Think about it, we might not know what is really going on in his mind, but can we take that risk?”
