"You look lovely," he complimented with a smile.She smiled back. "Thank you. And you...you don't look too bad yourself," she glanced at his appearance, admiring every aspect of him. Laurie couldn't help but appreciate his handsome, masculine features and the way his shirt hugged him perfectly. She could even see the defined muscles beneath the fabric and catch a hint of his cologne. He looked so refreshing and inviting."I hope you're doing well?" she asked, trying not to appear too eager, though her eyes couldn't help but linger on him hungrily.He exhaled slowly, avoiding her gaze. "Yes, I am," he lied, trying to maintain a calm facade. A small smile helped to cover up the lie he told.She nodded. "Well, there's something I have to give you," she said, reaching into her handbag. Their conversation was interrupted by a waiter who came to take their order.She smiled politely at the waiter. "Can you give us a minute, please?"The waiter nodded and left the two of them alone. She pic
She suppressed the lump in her throat, her eyes teared up, "Landon, I tried to convince myself that each strike from you would be the last, that it was a mere mistake, but I tried...""But you still love me," he interjected, taking her warm, soft hands in his, feeling her tremble. He ignored it, slowly caressing her soft hand with his. He had missed her - the softness of her skin, her sweet lips, her perfect breasts, her nipples, her soft moans, and most of all, her beautiful tight pussy that was uniquely crafted for him. He could still vividly picture how it looked - her pubic hair, brown, bushy, soft, gathered around and across her soft flesh, and how it tasted as he licked her, drank in her wetness, nibbled and sucked on it like his life depends on it. Fuck yeah! His whole life depends on it. He missed her scent, her hair, everything about Laurie - everything about the woman sitting in front of him.He yearned to be inside her, his body fiercely responding to her mere presence in
The woman lay perfectly still and unmoving for what seemed like an eternity. It dawned on Landon that something wasn't right. He placed a hand on her chest and gently shook her, hoping to wake her up. But she remained still, eyes closed. Landon shook her more forcefully this time, but she did not stir. Suddenly, a soft clinking noise caught his attention.Landon looked down and saw a small pocket knife, almost the size of his middle finger, lying on the bed. The blade was stained with fresh blood. A sense of unease washed over him, and with a single swift motion, he pulled back the blanket that covered her. To his horror, he saw that the bed was stained with blood. A sharp cut had been carved into her throat, still dripping with fresh blood.As his heart raced and he stumbled backwards, Landon felt the world crumbling around him. He instinctively grabbed onto the bedside and collapsed onto the bed, unsure of what next to do.With fresh,hot tears rolling down his cheeks, Landon looked
The officer behind her nodded, jotting down notes.She slowly ascended the stairs and walked carefully into the bedroom to get a closer look at the woman lying dead on the bed. She took a few steps closer, mentally reconstructing the crime scene. She imagined the couple lying on the bed, enjoying themselves when the doorbell rang. The man likely went to answer it and was killed, followed by the perpetrator going upstairs to murder the woman and escape.Shaking her head, she looked at the victim again."Ma'am?!" a male officer's voice called.She looked up, "What is it?" "The officers presented something to me," he said, revealing a pocket knife and a broken bottle that the killer used to commit the crime, neatly placed in a bag.She took the evidence from him, dismissed him, and turned her attention to the female victim. Studying her for a moment, she considered the possibility of an intruder or robber breaking into the home and attacking the couple. The woman was killed in a rush,
The image of Alex's sneering face, even in death, was etched in his mind, haunting him.And Laurie, her skin already turning blue, was also a constant presence in his thoughts. Landon tried to calm his nerves, wondering if this was how it felt like to take someone's life.On movie screen, murder always seemed like a cathartic release, but the reality was far from it. Landon got up and with shaking legs and hands, made his way to the liquor cabinet, reaching for yet another bottle of rum. It dawned on him that he had become an alcoholic, despite Laurie's pleas for him to quit. Alcohol had consumed his life, becoming his ultimate pacifier. When everything revolved around liquor, he knew he had hit rock bottom. It used to thrill, excite, and satisfy him, but now it was just a crutch, a friend in the absence of Laurie. It numbed his fears and offered him solace.The moment Landon's fists had struck her, and ignored her cries for help, until he was satisfied with beating her to pulp, he k
He tried again, and still, nothing.On the third try, the car finally roared to life. Landon breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he had to get to the nearest petrol station as soon as possible, as the fuel gauge indicated that it was running low and would not last more than half an hour.Taking a deep breath, Landon said a silent prayer and pressed down on the accelerator.The murder was a chaotic affair yet executed with precision. Shards of glass littered the scene, leaving little in the way of clues. However, a constable stumbled upon a small three-centimeter blade, believed to be the murder weapon used on Miss Laurie. The blade bore the tell-tale signs of blood, dried and caked onto its surface, silently resting on the floor beside the bed.Tammy returned to the site of the crime, determined to do her duty as an investigator. The murder was nearly flawless, save for the one piece of evidence: the blood-stained blade. However, such cases can be challenging, as a weapon alone does no
The anonymous calls and messages kept coming in even as Landon tried to maneuver his ways whenever he sense some P.I detective were out there looking for him, numerous times he had tried to disguise himself so as to move within the crowd of people and even in the street.At a point, the CCTV footage had shown his face, which later turned into a hot pursuit, and thousands of dollars was placed if anyone had any information about him.Every day, the news channels kept showing his face, urging the citizens to be on watch for the murderer.Landon later got to know who had vehemently stood her ground to make sure he was caught."Bitch!" He spat out when he saw her picture lying on his table.He knew he was never going to get away with what he had done two years ago. The lifeless body of Laurie kept on tormenting his head with the smug smile of Alex lifeless body walking towards him, making him scream out in fear like a mad man. He had already turned to a mad man, from screaming in his sle
Few hours later, the silence that swept the room made him feel unease as a pair of eyes were glued to him waiting eagerly to hear his confession.He swallowed nervously as his gaze was glued to only that person who have the power either to persecute or free him. Landon mouth opened, and his mind wander back to that night he killed her at 11:45pm or thereabout. she was his exodus, his departure from ordinary into something more, he just wanted to take the file the evidence she already had and leave there like he never came. He had walked quietly into their apartment even though he fought off the uneasiness he got from the silence of the building, Landon knew he would not received a warm welcome if he had used the door since he is the culprit she had been desperately searching for, for four years, but to make himself feel at home he made it in through their fence. Landon had noticed her husband car wasn't in the compound, as he silently walked into their room towards the directio
