Fated love Chapter fifteen
ShawnIt's been a month since we moved into our new home. It's been as long since I passed my detective's exam and joining the homicide squad. I told my captain before I took the exam that Abbigail I were getting married in August and that I was taking her to Ireland for our honeymoon. I was at my first scene, wearing a new suit and a bulletproof vest. It was a body dump on the edge of private property. The property owner has motion detectors around his property and said it was triggered early this morning. Thinking it was a bunch of kids messing around, he came to give them a warning when he found the body.I knew right away that the murder didn't take place here. The body had been wrapped in plastic with duct tape holding it in place. Blood pooled in the plastic so we had to be careful not to lose any of it for evidence. As soon as the face was revealed, I had to fight tears from falling. It was a young girl, couldn't be more then sixteen years old. Her face was riddled with bruise
Fated love Chapter sixteen
ShawnI woke the next morning to Abbigail stroking the scar on my shoulder from the night I almost died. Beth was trying to calm her down and wasn't able to. I sit up, wrapping my arms around her. I motion for Beth to come on my other side, noticing that she was upset about not being able to calm down Abbigail. I kiss both of their heads and rub their backs. I know no words will do justice to calm them down so I just hold them. I let them calm down at their own pace and occasionally kiss their heads. "I'll make my special breakfast," I say softly as I got them mostly calmed down. "Will you add extra chocolate chips," Abbigail asks in a choked whisper and Beth nods in agreement. "I can do that," I say in a soothing tone, give them a kiss and head to the kitchen. I gather what I need to make chocolate chip pancakes and mix up the batter. I feel as the girls take turns hugging me at my back. I turn to give them a kiss on their foreheads and continue with breakfast. There was a knock a
Fated love Chapter seventeen
ShawnIt's two weeks before the wedding and I was able to talk Melanie into joining us on our honeymoon. She would be taking a spontaneous vacation to those whom are not our family. I was renting out a two bedroom cabin for the four of us. The only person who has no idea it's the four of us going was Abbigail. This whole trip was a surprise for her.I've witnessed Melanie get asked out numerous times in the last two weeks and she's rejected everyone. She tells them she's seeing someone, but won't specify who. I watch as she brightens up when she says she's happy with her relationship and wanting to keep it private. I was in the middle of my hopefully last case before the wedding and Dylan and I have been on it the last two weeks. We were working a double homicide. Two teens killed with the same motive. Both were girls around eighteen years old, blonde hair, blue eyes and built like models.They were found a couple days apart in the same wooded area. Both girls were found without cloth
Fated love Chapter eighteen
AbbigailMelanie just confessed her love for me. The last person she said it to was her husband and daughter almost six years ago before she left for Iraq. I let out a calming breath and tilt my face upward to hers. I brush my lips against hers and our breaths hitch. I hear her whimper, wanting me. Tears roll down my cheeks and I lay a gentle kiss on her lips. "I love you too," I choke in a whisper. "I just need to focus on Shawn waking up before I step forward with our relationship. Please give me time."I hear her sigh in relief and chokes in a whisper, "I understand completely. I'm just glad you feel the same."I lay my head on her chest and she scrunches my hair. I hear someone enter the room and tighten my hold on Melanie. "Shh, its okay," Melanie says in a soothing tone. "It's Joyce and Beth. I'm not going to let anyone hurt you.""I don't want to jump every time the door opens. I want to go home, but not after Beth got that threatening letter and not without Shawn," I choke in
Fated love Chapter nineteen
ShawnIt's been two days since I woke from my coma and I was able to return home. The accomplice was dead and it was safe to return home. Melanie and I both informed our captain we wanted to go back to patrolling and as partners. We were granted permission and could return in a couple of weeks.He knows what we mean to Abbigail and that she needs us right now. I was going to use this time to reinforce our security system and draw up plans for a panic room in the basement. Or even turn the basement into a family sized panic room. I know Melanie will agree with me and help me set it up with military grade standard security. "Shawn," Melanie says in a soothing whisper, holding my face in her hands. I meet her eyes, realizing that we were home. "You okay?""Yeah, just thinking about upping our security system and making the basement a panic room," I say quietly and she nods in agreement. "I want it built like Fort Knox and hopefully before the twins are born.""I'll make some calls, but r
Fated love Chapter twenty
AbbigailAfter talking with Shawn last night about saving my life before the twins and I knew how much I meant to her. I know she loves the twins, but she's right. She and I could always try again should anything happen. We were asleep in our room when I heard the door open. Joyce's perfume filled my nose as I felt hair being tucked from my face. I let out a relaxed sigh and nuzzle my cheek against Shawn's chest. I feel Shawn's arms tighten around me and let out a sleepy sigh. "Mom," Shawn asks in a tired whisper. "Everything okay?""I'm sorry I woke you," Joyce says quietly. "I just wanted to check on the mothers of my grandchildren. I've been keeping an eye on them for weeks and don't think I can break the habit.""Thank you for that," Shawn chokes quietly. "You're welcome sweetie," Joyce says quietly and I feel as she kisses my forehead. "Good night."I grab for Joyce and she gives me her hand. "We can talk over some of that tea you normally make me. I'm having a hard time fallin
Fated love Chapter twenty-one
AbbigailIt was late and I couldn't sleep after what happened in the church today. I was sitting in a bath with Shawn and she lightly trailed her fingers up and down my arms. I was finding it both relaxing and distracting. The occasional kiss on my neck was calming and I relax a little more.I take Shawn's arms and wrap them around me. She kisses my temple and I let out a sigh. I rest my head back against the front of her shoulder and caresses my stomach. The twins kick hard at her hands twice before calming down. I groan with relief from the immediate calming from the kicking and relax against Shawn. "How long have they been kicking like that," she asks with concern. "All day," I say in a relieved sigh. "They're fine when you're caressing or rubbing my stomach. It started when Shelby was growling in the church.""Want me to make you warm milk with honey? That helped last time right," she asks softly. "Yes please, thank you," I say in a calming whisper. "Just five more minutes in th
Fated love Chapter twenty-two
ShawnAfter hugging my mother this morning I felt as if a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. She didn't fight when I pulled away after a few minutes when I started to feel overwhelmed with emotions. She wiped my eyes and I let her kiss my forehead. I met eyes with Annie and she was relieved to see me opening up. I could tell she was hurting a little that I wasn't ready to hug her yet.I pull her aside and she looks at me confused. "Will you be my best woman," I ask with a smile. She goes to give me a hug and stops mid motion. A mix of emotions crosses over her face as tears fill her eyes and I hold my arms open for her. She doesn't hesitate, comes in my arms and lets out relieved sobs. I rub her back in comfort and she holds onto me. "I know you're alive, but it felt like you died back in Iraq and an empty shell came home," she chokes in a sobbed whisper. "I missed my sister.""I'm sorry," I choke quietly as our mother walks in the den. "I never meant to hurt anyone. I thought
