As soon as we got to the house I said my goodnights to the family and locked myself in my room. I knew Josh wanted to know what I was doing, he wanted to help but this was something I had to take care of myself. I called up James, one of the guys my family had on retainer. He’s a bodyguard slash jack of all trades and more importantly he doesn’t ask questions. He gets paid well enough that he doesn’t give a shit. Short of committing murder I’m not sure there isn’t much he won’t do.
“James, no this is Matt, yeah I have a situation, it might entail some travelling, you have anything on your plate right now? I don’t really want to talk over the phone so can we meet?”
“When do you need me?”
“As soon as possible.”
“Tonight, it’s a little late but I can swing by there in a half an hour.”
“That would be perfect I’ll meet you down by the gate I don’t want anyone knowing about this not yet anyway.” I gave him some time to get here while I formatted my plans in my head. What I was about to do would cross many lines but I didn’t really give a fuck. Criminals have no rights in my world and especially not assholes who terrorized women and children. Fuck him and fuck anyone who thought he deserved better than what I was about to do to his ass.
I got all the information off the computer that we’d collected so far. Thanks to Google I knew exactly where that fucker lived even knew the dollar value of his house. Through the shit Josh had done I knew where he worked, his hours, what model car he drove everything, and by the time I was through I would know a hell of a lot more.
James was already there waiting when I jogged down the driveway and opened the gate. I climbed in the passenger seat and passed him the envelope. “That’s Tommy Bruno he’s a pedophile stalker living in Sheldon Nebraska. You don’t need to know any more than that for now. This is what I want you to do: I want you to get into his house you’ll figure out the ins and outs of that I’m sure. I want eyes and ears inside his house. But here’s the tricky part, I want you to go back while he’s there and take a picture of him asleep in his bed. Do you think you can do that?”
“Piece a cake. Tell me do you and your brother ever do normal teenage shit? not even your old man ever had this kinda shit on his plate and I’ve been working for your family for years.”
“Times changed, what can I tell you.”
“Damn, anything else you want me to do while I’m in bum fuck USA?”
“No that’s it for now there might be more later I’ll let you know. Prepare to be on call for the next little while though just in case.”
“No problem I wasn’t doing anything of import now anyway, I guess you want this taken care of ASAP.”
“If you don’t mind.”
“Fine I’ll get there tomorrow and call you sometime later and let you know how things went.”
“All the info is in there, his work hours his daily movements shit like that. If you run into any trouble just lay low for a while but don’t come back until it’s done.”
“The fuck this guy do to you anyway?”
“He fucked with what’s mine.” I figured I could give him that much without giving anything away.
“I think I might give you a discount on this one I hate fucking pedophiles, you sure you don’t want me to break his legs or some shit? I can throw that in for free.”
“No that’s my job.” I hopped out the car and jogged back down the drive.
Chapter 17
I slept like a baby that night knowing that I’d set shit off, and first thing in the morning I called her up to see what time she was coming over. After making sure she had passed the night well without incident I went in search of dad. I found him on his way out the door heading for work. “Dad I need a favor.” He stopped with his hand on the door and gave me his full attention.
“What do you need son?”
“It’s about school…”
“Don’t tell me you’re taking time off from school Matt that I won’t tolerate…”
“Take it easy old man it’s for Kadyn, I need you to get her into the university with us. I know it’s a bit late but her scores are amazing she…”
“Say no more son I was expecting something like this after my talk with her father yesterday; I’ll take care of it don’t give it another thought.”
“Thanks dad and thanks for going to see Stan that was way cool.”
