“So, what can I do for you?” He asks, folding his arms over his chest.
“I wanted to see if there was an update on my parent’s case. If someone has found their killers," I say, taking a deep breath.
He types on his computer. “Huh,” he says.
“Something wrong?” I ask, as Jo reaches over to hold my hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze.
“I’m sorry to tell you this,” He says. “It looks like we have no new updates on the case.”
“What do you mean? It's been months.” Tears begin to fall down my face.
“That’s what I want to know, too. How hasn’t there been any updates? Do you even care?” Jo shouts.
“So I still have to watch my back. Great.” Wiping my tears away. “Please help me.” I plead.
“I assure you, I am doing my best.” Detective Tate states. Jo interjects yelling, “ Do your fucking job!” Detective Tate ignores her yelling and continues.” That’s not the only problem.”
“What do you mean?” Now I’m getting pissed. Why isn’t he just spitting it out?
“Some of the evidence has gone missing.” He deadpans.
“WHAT!” Jo and I scream in unison.
Chapter Twenty-Six
VILLIAN
Watching her walk into the police station gives me such satisfaction. When I overheard that cunt tell sweet peach, she set up a meeting; I was ready to sink my knife into her fucking throat. When I saw that smile on her face, I knew I had to destroy it. So when I texted that fucker Dean, I knew he would help me out.
Me: Need a favor
Dean: Yeah?
Me: One of your pals has a meeting set with a girl, Aluxis Vega
Dean: Picture attachment received
Dean: Okay, the plan?
Me: I want you to change up the meeting and meet with her instead.
Dean: Alright. What do you need me to do?
Me: Crush that smile. Tell her there is no update.
Dean: Anything else?
Me: Yeah, one more thing. Make the evidence disappear.
Dean: Done
When she walks past me, towards the entrance of the station; I can’t help but sniff the air, smelling her peachy scent. Before her scent can be washed away with the stale air in this fucking place, I watch her walk out, mascara running down her face. Knowing I caused it makes my dick rock fucking hard. I watch as she climbs into the back of the SUV, and just as she reaches to close the door, her eyes lock with mine. Soon enough, sweet peach. I can’t wait until I have her under me again. I’ll be the nightmare she can’t ever escape.
Sitting in front of my screens, I scan through the feeds. Stopping on a pacing Cade, he has the phone to his ear. Reaching over, I click the button connecting me to his line.
“Have you found the person responsible for the texts and videos?” Kevin asks.
Cade sighs into the line, running his hand down his face.
