Chapter 47 Summary: “Alive To His Fingertips”

When Ruby runs off, Becker feels betrayed. None of the other girls caused any trouble. He listens to his heart as he chases her. All of his senses work together to find her. He believes the surrender will be even more satisfying after such a struggle. Becker moves deliberately. Ruby is in much better shape than him, but the GHB he gave her will level the playing field. Plus, he can still track her with his phone. He puts his knife away, not wanting to use it just yet.

Chapter 48 Summary: “Only Got Worse”

Alexis rushes to keep up with Nick, but he is way ahead of her. Alexis is in pain from a side cramp. She wonders what’s going to happen when she and Nick finally catch up to Becker and Ruby. She has nothing to protect herself with and Becker might have a gun. As she pushes forward, she sees gardening tools near a house and grabs a wooden rake. Nevertheless, Alexis feels unprepared to face Becker. Nick must be thinking the same thing: He arms himself with a huge rock before disappearing into the park.
