The cold shower that had seemed to be working just fine suddenly started to emit heat and Lucas's whole body, all his body could see and pay full attention to was the one woman on the bed.Her blonde hair scattered all over her face and a part of it on the bed, her gown had pulled up to her thighs and if Lucas bent just lower, he would see beneath her cloth.He clenched his fist in a bid to return to the shower but his legs would not budge, his eyes were wide open, staring at the easy on the eye woman in the bed.His brain at that moment could not even register the faint giggling he could hear, then his legs moved, not away from her but approached her, his thick hands pulling her body straight.She hummed something and wriggled under him, her bare skin coming into contact with his, her body was just as hot as his was.Just that split spark of a moment sends him over the edge and he took her that night. In the middle though, the woman did some work even in her slight and hot subconscio
Outside the mansion, Grey takes another look and then at the paper pictures in his hands, one of Minta and Ronald on their wedding day and the other one, the one year old picture of the baby, Bethany Callaghan, he folds them gently and puts it into his pocket before driving back to the station, his next spot of agenda in his head.As soon as he arrived, he walked to the holding cell and released Smith from the lock hold. “Maybe you will be a little more sensible now.”“Thank you.” Smith mutters, dusting off his uniform.“So, what did you find out from going to their house? Did you even meet anyone?” The clerk asks him.Grey brings out the photo and unfolds them onto the table. “I met someone, who used to work for the family. So, long story short, they have disappeared for over twenty years and they had left a baby that no family member will take care of. This baby was taken to an orphanage that soon after, closed down. So now, I need to find those who ran the orphanage at the time and
Out of the blues, Mikayla decides to go to the Anderson Villa…On arriving there, she sees that the gate still has not been repaired so she can just drive into the compound without having to take anybody’s permission, which she does.After parking the car, she gets off and walks to the door. She raises her hands to knock but as her knuckles connect to the door, the door pushes itself open in her hands and it opens. Surprised slightly, she fully opens it and goes inside, walking the dim hall down into the visitor living room, where there is still no sign of life.“Hello?” She calls out, receiving no response.She walks into the dining room where she abruptly stops, her eyes coming to rest on Stella and Lily as they eat in silence. Both of them look up, startled as well.It takes a few seconds for everything to register in the eyes of the trio, and suddenly, Mikayla does not know why she came there in the first place, recollecting the last time she had been there and what had ensued bet
“Good afternoon Mr. Trelawney, I am Grey Mills.”“Nice to meet you detective. I hear you are checking a case regarding the old orphanage?”“Yes. She was one when she was brought to the orphanage in the year you served as director. Do you recognize her?”“Oh, yes. Bethany Callaghan.”Grey frowns ever so slightly. “Wha… How do you remember her? It’s been over twenty years, hasn’t it? And please don’t tell me it is because you have a good memory.”Daniel drops the photo and looks up. “It is not something I am proud of but let me tell you a story.”Grey leans back, having all the time in the world to come to the end of the case that has been puzzling him for almost a full month now.Just to find the person who murdered a man, he is going to so much lengths, into the stories of others that is probably all just connected and weaved together like an African mat.“At this exact year, a week before the baby was brought to the orphanage, we were tight on funds. When I say tight, we were in the
Normally, having a day off from work is considered to be a blessing for a police officer but on this particular day off, Grey is exceptionally happy for the opportunity to shift the day till he wants to actually put it to good use.He puts on his gloves and a blue white face mask before walking through the doors of the house. He's only ever investigated the Anderson's on the outside but now, he is gaining access to their own home, maybe he will find some clues that can nail the case shut or at least, make headway with something.He sidesteps past the steady streams of officers, walking over to the body that has been cut down from its place in the ceiling to the floor.Not far away sits Reese and Lily, both of them staring at the lifeless body of Stella.Unlike the movies had made it seem, so easy to close the deceased eyes, the EMTs had chosen to not subject the family to the horror of seeing her eyelids forcefully pulled down so her eyes are, hauntingly, open.Leaving the body to sta
"It's after school time. Come on, Mum is coming to pick us up." Mikes iterates as he slings his small backpack over his back and carries the lunch bag in his hands.Maya does the same thing, grabbing her back and lunch bag as well as the two of them walk in tow to where Mikayla usually showed up to pick them up, almost immediately after school.Just as they arruved, a black SUV parks in front of them.Both of them walk to the car, waiting for Mika to come out and give them hugs as she always does before tucking then in and putting their seat belts on before leaving but this time, a tall man comes out.Miles immediately steps back, standing in front of Maya to protect her... Or something like that."Hi Miles and Maya. I am Ben. Mikayla sent me to pick you up.""No. We won't go with you." Miles replies immediately.The man laughs, removing his sunglasses to reveal brown, almost friendly eyes. "Mika told me that you will say the same thing and that when you do, I should show you this." H
Mikayla rushes into her car and drives off in the direction of the school, running late after a meeting, just barely ten minutes after the original closing time, she finally parks there.Not seeing any of the twins where she usually picks them up and wait for her no matter what, not even their bags to indicate that they probably just went to use the toilet, she gets down from the car and looks around to no avail.She locks up the car and walks over to the classes but it's empty, even down to the teachers, there is no one in sight that can be of help so she leaves for the school's administration building.She's immediately directed to the Dean who receives her warmly."Good afternoon ma'am. I hope all is well? Considering that you didn't call ahead to inform us about your coming.""I'm sorry as well but I ran a bit behind in picking the children up. I'm here now but I can't seem to find them.""I'm pretty sure they left the classes as soon as the school closed. You know what, children
About to head out of the cafe, Grey pays for the coffee both men had taken with his card.Stepping outside, he inhales the crisp cool air and sighs.His phone ringing distracts him from the search of his keys and he sees the caller to be Smith."Hello Smith? Can I help you tonight?""Where are you right now?""I had a meeting with Mr Santinello and I am heading off to my bed. Do you have something for me?""Certainly. Can you drop by the office before heading home?"Grey groans. "I hope for your own sake that it is something worth my time, if not, you'll spend the whole remainder of this week in the holding cell and I mean it."Smith laughs. "Sure then. Just come on over first."Grumbling, groaning, tired, weary, weak, sleepy... All of the states of mind Grey experiences before appearing at the office. He slouches up the stairs to the office where he meets Smith bending over a computer."What do you have for me?""Before I show you, I did it to show that I did not take my job as a jok
