Chapter 35
Amid the smell of fear-saturated secretions of teenage boys who had recently met their demise, a new scent perfumed the air. The sweet aroma permeated the atmosphere despite the downpour from the angry heavens.
As the wind blew stirring branches and limbs and whipping colored leaves in its wake, a familiar scent lingered: vanilla, caramel and coconut.
The notes alerted Eugene’s senses. Inhaling deeply, he immediately recognized the intoxicating fragrance.
His mouth salivated profusely and his body shuddered.
Thunder rumbled through the trees, shook the forest floor.
Eugene stalked off after the trail of Melissa Martin.
