Chapter Text

The letter came from Utah with no return address but she knew who it was from, how could she not? It was his chicken scratch writing, there was no doubt at all about it. She had told him not to write to her ever again, but of course, Mac wouldn't be silenced. Claudia had no idea how he could have gotten a letter to her out of the jail, his paramour had been caught, but it just proved that his reach was far, just like she suspected. He had her address once more after she had been so careful to hide from him and she was going to have to move again. She opened the letter; there was no way she couldn't.

Dear Claudia,

I'm sure Charlie Pace has told you all about Leslie by now, have I ever told you how much I despise him? Well, I do, for many reasons, the least of which being that he got to see you every day. But mostly I hate him because he thinks he can take my place in your life. No one takes you away from me, NO ONE! Of course, I know you aren't partners anymore and you've moved away, but I know he is still in touch with you. How could he not be? He wants to fuck you, you know that right?

If you ever let him, I'll kill him, without even thinking twice about it. Don't let any man touch you, or there will be consequences and you won't like them. I'll make you sorry if you even look at another man, understand me?

I think about you often with my hand around my cock, the memory of you is burned into my mind, you are the best fuck I ever had, and I can't wait to have you again. Think of me when you touch yourself, remember how good it was between us.

Back to the uncomfortable news about Leslie, I want you to hear from me that she meant nothing to me. You know that what we have is deeper than anything either of us has ever had before with anyone else. What you and I have is extraordinary, no one and nothing can change that.

She helped me find you and I am grateful to her for that, but otherwise, she doesn't matter. You matter. I know you can't forget me, and that's why you cut off communication. It's hard to be lovers from such a long distance, I understand, I don't like being apart either. I can't wait to see you in court, wear something sexy for me, something red, to let me know you're thinking of me too. I know you can't bring the baby, but I wish you could, is it a boy? I feel like it is. You are always on my mind Claudia. You are the mother of my child now and that makes you the most important person in my life, forever. I want you to know I haven't forgotten you. You will always be mine.

Always yours,
Mac

Her hands shook as she read the letter, the things he said about Charlie outraged her, maybe more than the blatant obsessive nature of the letter. He was smart though, he mentioned the baby, knowing that she could never show the letter to anyone or risk them knowing the truth. She crumpled it up and threw it in the garbage. Always, he said, always mine, always yours, she would never be free of him.

He was losing weight and that was part of the plan, his court date was coming up and he had a new public defender; Robert and Leslie were fired, now he had some jerk off named Keith. But this one wasn't as smart as he thought he was, Mac had so many things hidden up his sleeve.

He always did.

This guy would be a means to an end though, and for now, Mac needed him. The guy was worthless though in his client's eyes, even worse than Robert, but not Leslie. He had plans for her, she still held some value to him, for the time being.

Mac was planning an epic escape like another Utah killer had once done, but he would be successful, he would not be caught the way Ted Bundy had been. Bundy had gotten greedy and went on a spree, he had no self-control. Mac had self-control in spades, and he was patient, good things always came to those who waited and planned.

The ductwork escape was a good idea, and they were never going to suspect he did it, just like Bundy had. He would crawl up into the vents like in that movie Claudia always watched with the two Irish guys crawling around in the ceiling avenging every poor soul in Boston. He was a flight risk, they would have him under lock and key, but he was smarter than them.

He planned to dye his light hair dark as soon as he was out and disappear into a sea of people in Salt Lake City, then on to Oklahoma City.
