Todos los capítulos de LT. Chris Angeles - Monster Among Men (Detective Series): Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

Being a cop is a dream I have since I was a kid. Whenever my parents would ask me what do I want when I grow up I would always say, I want to be a cop, nothing else. Even at a young age, I never imagined myself to be anything other than to be a law enforcer. And I did everything to achieve my dream. I worked hard to get here."Angeles! Missing kid at the Burton Primary." I immediately stood up as soon as I heard our captain."Yes, sir."Burton Grove is a fast-growing city. Because of the great job opportunities and business ventures, our city that started as a one-horse town became an urban city where dreams can come true. But with a growing population, crimes grow too. Our once peaceful town now has a burglary, robbery, drugs, prostitution, and now a missing kid? Damn! It's getting worst."Oliver, stop eating. Damn it!" I grabbed my best friend and partner, Oliver McKnight by his collar and dragged him out of the station."Hey! I'm eating!" Oliver

Half of the Burton Grove Police Department came to the southern border to secure the area and ensure that the kid will be rescued. We tried so hard to keep the media out of it because we don't want to tip the abductor that we already found them. That will put the kid's life in danger. I ordered every police officers to position themselves around the cabin. I wanted to make sure that he won't escape.As soon as I receive the confirmation that everyone was in position, Oliver and I walked towards the house. I hide below the window as Oliver knock on the door. I volunteered to go to the back of the house because I saw a small window that looks like a basement, and Oliver is too fat to fit in. Besides, Oliver is always a great distraction because he's quick to think of reasons and lies that are believable to those who don't know him.When I finally heard the front door open, I quickly ran to the back and used my combat knife to open the window. When the little girl saw me,

On my way to the station, I felt thirsty, so I decided to stop at the first grocery store I saw. When I entered the store, I saw some of my high school friends. We exchanged some hellos and continued finding what we want to buy. I went straight to the drinks section and picked up an energy drink. As I was about to turn around, I heard two ladies talking. "That detective is really making a name for himself. I saw the trending post on F******k about how he saved a child at Reserve last Sunday." The woman in a red dress said. "Yeah, I heard about it. And guess what, he's single." The other woman in a floral dress responded. "He's practically a hero and a handsome one at that." The third woman in tight jeans and tank top added. "He's not a hero; that's his job. Besides, that man is a jerk." The voice of the fourth woman was familiar, so I walked towards them. And there I saw the teacher of Krishna. "Good morning, ladies." I greeted them. T

Today is one of those days that we are not so busy. It looks like the criminals of Burton Grove take a day off too. Oliver and I decided to have lunch at our favorite music lounge. It's been a long time since we visited that place.We were joking and laughing when we arrived at the Burton's Music Bar and Bistro. Oliver was quick with our favorite food and drinks while I look for a comfortable spot. But as I walk towards the corner, I heard an obnoxious voice of a man rumbling about his achievements and how great he is. His companions are obviously bored and irritated but were polite enough not to interrupt him."And that little b*tch who sued Albert for rape? Only a fool would believe her. She's using the victim card to screw Albert. I'll bet you my whole year's salary; she and her family are just after Albert's money." The man bluntly said.It's a spark ignited inside of me when I heard him say those words about my goddaughter. I remembered him from Sig and Fre

When are you bringing a girlfriend home, Chris? When do you plan on getting married, Chris? Blah, blah, blah.Why is my love life a part of their problem? I haven't met the woman who would capture my heart, that's all. I don't want to be that guy who gets married this month and files a divorce six months after. When I get married, I want it to be permanent. Not just a phase that will pass.My morning started not so great because of Melanie's questions about my love life. Our mom and dad started asking me, too. They wanted to see their grandchildren. And Mark finally having a girlfriend didn't help my situation.Mark had a few girlfriends in the past. Jeffrey always has a girlfriend. Melanie is in a long-term relationship with her boyfriend, Andrew. While me? Nah, never mind."Hey, Chris!""Morning, Chris."My colleagues greeted me as I entered the station, but I just nodded at them. I'm not in the mood."Hey, bro. What's the matter?"
