The black Ford SUV drove steadily through the quiet streets of Chicago, well past midnight, as the crime scene of the murder of a woman whose identity was later revealed to be Cecilia Briane Sommerhalder was being recorded. 

Lieutenant Benjamin Roosevelt and his partner, Sergeant Rodney Bradford, immediately visited the victim's residence, who was single and unmarried. Forensic officers also followed the vehicle to the Gladious Sky apartment to collect all possible samples that could be used in the murder investigation, despite the crime scene where the body was found being located on the Chicago River. No possibility could be overlooked, and they tried to quickly follow up on every clue they could find.

Finally, the two black official cars parked in the underground parking lot of the apartment where the murder victim, Cecilia Sommerhalder, lived. The burly men in official uniforms immediately went up to the lobby to request access to t

Rayden pulled off the towel wrapped around Emily's body, leaving her naked before him. Every feminine curve on Emily's body was a temptation to his senses, a divine creation perfectly suited to satisfy a man's desires.In the middle of Rayden's bedroom, the woman stood with her hands bound behind her back, her eyes closed, her heart racing with excitement. However, Emily remained silent, unwilling to say anything; she was merely the Frenchman's sexual slave.Her skin tingled as a light touch, like feathers, trailed down her body from her neck to the valley between her breasts, then to her ribs and stomach. Rayden observed Emily’s reaction as he brushed the goose feathers against her bare skin. Her response was not overly noticeable.Then the man ran his tongue

  • Beauty Behind Justice   Just A Variation of Lovemaking

    Hearing Murat's question about whether she was willing to fight for their love, Emily replied, "Yes, Murat. I will fight for our love. Please hold on for me. This time, you have to let me stay with Rayden after work until morning."Murat felt as though his heart had been pierced by a dagger. He hated having to let the woman he loved go into another man's arms. Where was the logic in a man making such a sacrifice? Torturing himself for the sake of the principle his beloved clung to—was that really necessary?However, Murat had endured far worse in his past when his family was massacred by rebels. He said, "I will wait for you, Emily. Promise me that your love is entirely for me."Her hazel eyes were shrouded by a layer of clear glass that slowly cracked and fell into crystal droplets on her delicate cheeks. Emily cupped Murat's face with her hands and replied, "Thank you, My Love. I promise that all my love, with every fiber of my being, is only for you." The sound of Emily's phone d

    "Your Honor, Judge Malcom, I would like to call the first witness, Brent Cunningham, to answer several questions related to the premeditated murder of the late Ronald Banning and Thomas Simpson, as well as the family of Cassandra Olivia Barnes," said Emily, standing behind the prosecutor's desk facing Judge Malcom."Please call the witness, Brent Cunningham," replied Judge Malcom, granting Emily's request.The blond-haired, stocky man with the upright posture of a police officer was brought to the witness stand. Emily immediately stepped forward and asked, "Good morning, Brent. You must answer truthfully and adhere to the truth as sworn in under oath. I want to ask if it is true that Mr. Gordon Crawford ordered the murders of Ronald Banning, Thomas Simpson, and the Barnes family?"In truth, Brent Cunningham was afraid to speak the truth, as the senator could end his life.

I'll pick you up again this afternoon," Rayden said before Emily got out of his Lamborghini.He grabbed her face and kissed her lips possessively. "Say you love me, Emily!" he demanded.Emily pushed aside her reluctance because she needed to get out of the Frenchman's car quickly. "I love you, Ray. Honey, see you later this afternoon, okay?" Emily said in the softest tone she could manage. Apparently, her efforts weren't in vain, and Rayden began to soften. The man replied, "I love you too, Emily.
