Chapter 645 Plan in Motion

"

All the pieces were in place and Tara was ready to set her diabolical plan in motion. She'd even gotten her hair highlighted as a special treat to herself. She didn't get her hair done in Charming because she didn't want to end up with zebra striped hair like Gemma. She was going to splurge on full head highlights from Hair Apparent, the trendiest salon in Oakland.

The process had taken all day as the colorist lightened her base color a couple of shades and then carefully painted in caramel and toffee colored highlights. Her hair had then been cut in a stylish layered haircut that framed her face and brought out her big brown eyes. Tara was sure Jax would love her makeover.

She bought new make-up to increase her attractiveness some plum brown smoky eye shadow, a golden brown eye pencil that would bring out the gold flecks in eyes, a peachy pink blush that would give her a glow and a lip gloss in a slightly darker peachy pink shade that would emphasize the fullness in her lips. Scarlett might be naturally beautiful especially now that she didn't look like a blonde whore with her hair now dark, but she was the prettiest she'd ever been with her new hair and make-up. And together with her new wardrobe she got for Hawaii, Jax would be stunned at just how good she looked. She regretted her leg injury kept her from working out so her body wasn't in peak condition, but there wasn't anything she could do about that.

Two days after her reinvention, Tara pulled on a pair of jeans, a white T shirt and a blue hoodie. The day was finally here. She parked her car a half block from Scarlett's van that was parked in front of her store, pulled the hood up on her hoodie, added a pair of sunglasses and she was officially disguised.

She walked to Scarlett's van, scanning the people on the sidewalks for anyone who might recognize her. No one she knew anywhere. She unzipped her hoodie and pulled a large manila envelope from her jacket, took another quick look around before tucking it under the van's windshield wiper on the driver's side and scurrying back to her car.

The last time she felt this type of rush was the day she cut into her first live human body. The feel of the scalpel in her hand cutting into actual living flesh and seeing the skin part under her blade and the blood that followed made her feel like God. She could save lives with her skilled hands.

She didn't think anything could ever compare to that, but putting that envelope on Scarlett's car was a close second. She might not be saving lives, but she was saving her future. Today would alter her romantic future forever.

Now all she had to do was sit back wait for the explosion and Jax's call.
