Yes, fucking hell it was.

Enzo made to pull his gun from his holster when I placed a hand on his arm, stopping him. "You can't just walk in there with a gun, you're going to aggravate the whole situation."

Enzo looked at me like I'd grown two extra heads, "So we just go in there claiming peace?" They just smashed a car. And not just any car, a police van."

I let out a scoff and opened the car door and said, "Yeah, well, you can't go in there firing your gun either."

I slammed the door shut the moment I was out of it and palmed my holster, making sure that my gun was there. Holding a gun out might be a wrong idea, as it could send a wrong message. We needed to blend in before we could do anything about this. If not we'd be pounced on before we'd be able to do anything. Smashing up a police car wasn't a coincidence, it was an intentional action. I moved further, slowly towards the waft of smoke, not bothering if Enzo was behind me or not. It had faded a little now, leaving just the sme

    I sucked in a sharp breath and carefully placed the glass in my hand near the dispenser, inside the sink. My heart was beating hard against my chest as I placed a foot in front of the other and moved towards the table. I stopped just an inch before the table top and observed the rose. It still seemed fresh, whoever put it there had to have recently dropped it. Swiftly, I crouched down to bring the pistol that was in my thigh holster. I made sure to turn off the silencer before holding it in both hands and walking lightly against the floorboards. I placed my body flat against the wall and looked around the house—making sure my index finger didn't leave the trigger and that I was ready to shoot if it came to that. Who'd be so stupid to break into the house of a cop? This isn't a fucking movie. I let out a huff as I quietly turned the door knob of my room door, opening it enough for me to fit in. I tiptoed into it, pointing my gun at all directions, in case I came face to face with the

    "Jude...hi," Kyle said as he tossed the tie over his shoulders and blocked my exit with his arm across when I tried to walk past him. "What? You're not mad, are you?"I rolled my eyes and folded my arms against my chest, "I just need a really high building to throw myself off. Why would I be mad? Do I seem mad?""Well, if you say so. I stopped by your house, you weren't there and figured out you'd be here instead." He dropped his arm from blocking my way and moved to the side, letting me walk past him.I shrugged my right shoulder and moved in silence as he followed right behind me. "Where's your car?" I asked as I took in the parking lot and didn't see his jet black four wheels. "It's this other way." He said, increasing his speed and walking ahead of me. I didn't bother to drive to Ava's place because I needed the grounding. I needed air and I wanted to be sad. But none of those things came to me as intensively as I wanted it to be. I wanted to drink it all away but all I had was t

    The door swung open to the bar, ignoring the waft of smoke that stung my eyes as I walked in. A mix of body odour, smoke and the inflated egos of men immediately hit me. I quickly walked to the counter and pulled a stool out to sit on. Raising my right hand to the back of my head, I loosened the band that held my hair together and let out a sigh of relief as the bundle of red hair fell over my shoulder. "You hair band had you like that?" Ava was in front of me, behind the counter–with an apron on and a full face smile. The type of smile that'd have your cheeks hurting. "You have no idea." I said, folding my arms together on the counter and leaning closer towards her. "What's with the apron? Running a restaurant now?"She gave me a playful glare and shaked her head, "I got a new shirt and I didn't want to get bear stains on it."I giggled a bit, closing my eyes for a minute and opened them. Ava was still were she was, waiting for me to speak, to talk when I was ready. "It's been shit

    "I didn't stay up late last night," I said to Kyle as I watched him drag a pointed pen tip on some papers, writing something for the department. "Do I look like I did?" I asked immediately, not letting him speak and palming my hair from every angle I could think of. He shrugged a shoulder and glanced at me, before focusing back on the paperwork in front of him. "I mean... you've been better."I furrowed my eyebrows at his comment and let out a deep sigh, "That's rude, first of all. And second, I'm not thanking you for pointing out the obvious. And lastly, choke on something.""Now, who's rude?" He said under his breath, scribbling something on a cream-coloured paper and setting it aside with the other pile he was done with.I opened my mouth to speak when the door to the room swung open, revealing Dr Chen—in sweats and a hoodie. We were at the corner of the room, Kyle behind his desk and me at the front of his desk. My desk was at the other side of the room, far away from this side.

  • The Darkest Obsession    Chapter 18: The Maestro

    "Uno, Due, Tre, Quattro..." I shoved my hand into my pocket to take another cigarette, "The five apostles, all in italian numbers were in existence right before I was given the name, The Maestro. Long before the detective at the police station found her way there–""Her?" One of Elias eyebrows shot up as he looked at me skeptically. "The detective I'm talking about isn't female.""That's beside the point." I glared at him as I picked up from where he interrupted me. And then it clicked, "The detective isn't female?""No. Detective Laurent isn't the only detective in the NHPD Cas." He was right. For some reasons, I didn't think of any other possibilities and fuck, if that didn't piss me off.I kept my expression blank as Elias kept talking. It was a while ago but the apostles were the leaders of the Black Rose before they unofficially disbanded and chose a single leader. Leaving them under the rule to act as a council for whoever was the boss of the syndicate. Elias talked about how h
