“What?” Stone quietly called back.

—

The twins crept up the back stairs of their old home, then stopped and listened for movement in the house. They both heard a faint cracking noise. They looked at each other and shrugged, then, on Eben’s signal, they began making their way through the house to the front.

—

The women finished their exercises, then stretched out on a double-width folding cot.

“This clearly isn’t working,” Primmy said. “Is it time for phase two?”

“If that doesn’t do it, then they’re just not receptive,” Carly replied. “I’m game for phase two, if you are.”

—

The twins reached the master suite and tiptoed across the carpeted floor toward the windows. Eben held up a hand, then started to strip off his clothes and his weapon. Enos followed suit, then reached for the bag with the ties and the lubricant.

—

Here goes,” Primmy said. She leaned over and kissed Carly on the lips. “Make some noise,” she whispered.

Carly gave out a low moan, then Primmy kissed her on a nipple and bit lightly.

“Ahhhhhhh!” Carly cried. “More!”

—

Ed saw a curtain move inside the upper porch window and brought his rifle up. Doing his best to ignore the women’s actions, he got ready for someone to step onto the porch.

—

Stone peeped around the tree, but saw little. Then he heard a louder cracking noise than before. After that, things seemed to happen in slow motion.

Stone started around the tree for a better angle.

Ed Rawls saw a naked twin step onto the porch, but his brother did not immediately follow. The twin clapped his hands, and a bag flew from inside the house into his hands. The women seemed to be so involved in their performance that they didn’t notice. Then the second twin stepped outside, and Ed sighted them through the scope. Almost, he breathed. A little farther.

Then the limb gave way beneath the deer blind and Ed began falling. Stone got off a round before the limb struck him, but he had no idea if he’d hit anything. He took the limb across the back of his neck and went down and, for a few seconds, out.

—

The noise made Primmy look around, and the first thing she saw was a naked man holding a tube of something. “Carly, run!” she shouted.

“Run where?” Carly asked, sitting up. Then she saw the man, too, and a second man joined him. “Where the hell is Ed?”

They heard a great creaking sound as a branch snapped off a tree near the porch. The twins spun around and stared.
