He turned around and went through the bushes the same time as she stepped out of the cabana. She was a little surprised he still knew how to get in and out of her home so well.
Bradley looked upset and something else she couldn’t quite tell. She had pasted on a happy smile as soon as she saw him coming.
“I’m sorry darling,” She rushed on, “I just needed some air. I heard you calling me. Is everything alright?” She hoped she sound saccharin and genuine.
She must have because he smiled at her and spoke then.
“Just checking on you, darling. A married man has the right to check up on his wife.” He smiled at her.

“We have to go Nick.” Elayna urged him. “Yes. Let’s go.” Nick said. Smiling down at her. Pete walked up to them then and handed her a manila envelope. “You may need this.” Elayna opened it to find pictures, emails, and financial records of her husbands offshore business accounts. She also saw evidence that proved he was behind framing Alvarez for the shooting and ousting his criminal dealings so he would benefit solely from it. It was everything. Would it be enough to stop him? She asked herself as she put it all hack inside of the envelope quickly. Pete had just saved her. She hugged him then. “Thank you for this.” She whispered.

Tell me detective, what did she do when you drove her to the airport back to that monster?” He clenched his jaw, already knowing the answer. “She cried.” He furnished. It all dawned on him then. She wasn’t quiet because she was sweet or graceful. It was because she was an abused spouse. “I thought it was out of happiness.” “Everyone does. Everyone thinks she is the luckiest woman in the world. She is in the most danger. We have to keep her safe. He will kill her before he allows her to divulge the truth about him.” “You’re in love with her aren’t you?” He didn’t answer that. “Just promise me.” Nick said.

“We are free.” She looked into his eyes confused by his words. “What do you mean “free” ? “ “I mean we gave enough evidence to where your husband will be in jail for a very long time. We are free to leave or to stay. Free to start a life together.” He was so joyous at the thought. No more secrets. No more hiding his love for her. “Yes, speaking of starting our lives together there is something I have been meaning to tell you about. When I was with Bradley I became ill and fainted. He had the doctor take a look and she says I’m pregnant. It’s your baby Nick.” He looked like he was in shock. “You’re pregnant? I&n

Nick awoke to the sound of Mr. King shouting and the feeling of freezing cold water being splashed on his face. He coughed and sputtered as he became conscious. The water jarred him back to the land of living, while leaving his head pounding and swimming. He adjusted his eyes to the dark atmosphere. Where was he? He asked himself. He quickly answered when his gaze landed on Mr. King. He had that evil grin on his face. Although Nick’s right eye was swollen shut he could see two large figures standing with Mr. King as well. “You have become a major pain in my ass.” He leaned forward, making sure he was inches away for Nick’s face. “Hit him !” He commanded, and one of his goons walked up to him. He felt a swift fist punch his midsection. He

Elayna opened her eyes and within seconds realized she was back in her home in her husband’s bed. Had it all been a dream? She asked herself. She was about to sit up when she felt something stinging her left arm. She looked around then. She had been wrong. She was not in Bradley’s room but her own. She had an I.V. in her left hand. Her room looked like a hospital room. There were various medical machines and beeping noises. She felt the back of her head throbbing and touched it. It was wrapped in gauze. The sunlight poured into the room. She remembered the explosion and hitting her head. She also remembered who had caused it all. Last night had been real, she thought. She tried to get out bed once more and noticed she was handcuffed to the bed. She heard Bradley’s voice then. He was standing by the window looking out on their property.

Nick could no longer see. Both of his eyes were swollen shut. Pete had been stripped down to his underwear, sliced and tortured by cuts and salt. Nick’s hand felt as if it were going to burst open for the pressure at any moment. The pain was excruciating. They were both in pretty bad shape. Both of them were dying of thirst . They were only given salt water to drink, which they didn’t. Nick had been waiting for an opening to get free, or for one of the goons to make a mistake so he could reap the benefits of that and dive something, but it ever happened. After hours of torture they were both put in makeshift cages. Nick was sitting in the corner of his protectively holding his hand. Pete hadn’t moved since they unhooked and threw him in.

You know, you’ve never really let me talk about it and you’ve never really told me the truth.” “About what?” There was a long pause. “Alvarez.” Another long Pause. “Or the Mayor’s ball.” He opened the door to his study and they entered. He went to pour himself a drink from the drink caddy in the corner of the large room beside his desk. While his back was turned to her she made sure the recorder was still on by opening her clutch and getting a tissue out, all the while making sure the recorder was working. It was. She sat down on the couch in front of the fireplace. He s

Elayna noticed Rosa was still there.She walked over to Elayna. Rosa looked at the goon, then back at Elayna. Her tears streaked her makeup and she could see the bruising they had covered up so strategically earlier. She picked up the needle then.“Rosa... please…” She begged her then, not knowing what Rosa would do next.The goon looked at Elayna.

Elayna sat down on the couch in front of the fireplace.He sat down beside her. He was holding a glass of scotch. He took a drink then.“Alvarez was never going to sell. Not after that debacle your boyfriend caused. So I did what I do best. I got him to.”“By framing him.”“I didn’t frame him. I just made some information readily available to the police so he could forfeit his company over to me.Why does this concern you again?”“I told you. I just want to know. I have that right now. I’ve seen too much not to know, right?”“True.” He admitted.“What ab

That infuriated him and he tried to get out of the chair.“Fuck you !” He shouted, and was punched, this time in the face.Mr. King was finished with him, for now. He walked over to another male figure that was hanging from a metal hook tied up in the next chair. His vision was blurry but he didn’t need it. He knew it was pete.“You fucking traitor! I hope it was worth it !” he yelled.His goons moved quickly and lowered the hook that he dangled from. and latched his rope tied wrists on to it. His shirt was ripped open. He was covered in soot, ash, dirt and blood.Nick’s vision improved, but not by much and watched as Bradley pulled out a blade. It gleamed in the light.&nb

She hadn’t realized the explosion had knocked her out until she opened her eyes. She could hear nothing but a loud humming noise in her ears. She looked around through the dust and the smoke area. Something warm and sticky was running down the center of her forehead. She touched the liquid and saw it was blood. She wiped it on her jeans. She looked around frantically searching for Nick and Pete. She saw black cars pulling up in the distance. She still couldn’t hear, only the loud humming noise inside of her ears. She tried to stand up but was unable to, so she crawled over to Nick’s motionless body. Fear gripped her. She shook him frantically, and called his name.“Nick!”It was no use. His bloody face was motionless.She cried
