CHAPTER 50 - Shred of Evidence

Unknown POV I was looking straight at the woman, who had altered into her favorite nightwear. Looking through the window, she seemed to be fatigued and emotionally drained from her routine tasks and responsibilities at work. I documented her as she waited anxiously for her boyfriend for two hours. I observed her troubled, worried, and scared to death expression as she started to look around her in pitch darkness. She was unceasingly scribbling something on her mobile phone and trying to call someone, but the way she dropped significantly her shoulders suggested that the interaction was a failure. When I landed at their house, I discovered his boyfriend trying to have some fun with another woman. He seemed to be so interested and engaged that they had replicated their malicious and deceitful activities over and over. Worse, they got it done in the very same bedroom and are on the same mattress where the legitimate girlfriend and

CHAPTER 51 - Motives

Detective Amiri's POV I was staring intently at my computer screen as I review the current case I am handling when a soft knock from my office door was heard. I called in with my loud and firm voice as I kept my eyes glued on the case I was evaluating. "Detective Amiri," a voice greeted me. I shifted my gaze to the person standing in front of me and recognized it was Dimitri. I nodded in acknowledgment as a response to his greeting. "What do we have?" I asked. Dimitri paused for a moment and took a deep and heavy sigh before he placed a file on my table. I looked at the file securely wrapped inside a thick, brown envelope. Then reverted my gaze on him with eyes full of question and curiosity. "It was the woman's file that was mentioned in Andrew Wilkins' case," he clarified. I remained to stare back at him as I waited for him to elaborate on what he was talking about. He cleared his throat. "Athena Collins, det

CHAPTER 52 - The First Attempt

Athena's POV I have been calling Cloud countless times now, but he had not shown up yet. My shift has just ended, and he was supposed to be here to pick me up from work, but his figure nor his car was nowhere to be found. I have been standing here waiting for half an hour now, and I could feel my legs started to have some cramps because of standing for so long. It was 6:30 PM now, and all my co-workers and even my boss had already gone home after I politely refused their offer to bring me home. I hate to admit it, but I was actually starting to get worried. Cloud has been acting so strange and different ever since the night he forgot to pick me up at work. He seldom replies to my text messages, he rarely picks up my call, nor gives me a call. He also seemed to give me an update way too long. At home, he was still the sweet and caring Cloud that I know. But there was something about him that seemed to be so odd. And not only that, but

CHAPTER 53 - Plumes of Smoke

Unknown POV I almost got her. The one person I have been planning to save from this cruel nightmare has been taken away by those detectives. I slammed my fist into the long metal table, and it created an immeasurable, defeating noise. I was panting and gasping so hard, struggling to catch my breath. Not only that, but I had nothing to feel but the blazing fury inside me as I remembered what had transpired earlier. As I was tracking Athena Collins and her boyfriend for a month now, I got so used to their daily routine that I struggled so hard to strategize a concrete plan and execute it seamlessly. Lately, I have been seeing some loopholes in their daily routine. The boyfriend suddenly became negligent about Athena Collins, for the perfect reason that he began hanging out and giving more time to the other woman who recently intruded on their once-perfect relationship. Because of that, I was able to execute all my plans into rea

CHAPTER 54 - Midpoint

Athena's POV I jerked out of bed, my eyes wide open. My head spun, and I felt physically sick as a result of the sudden movement. I unthinkingly gripped my head, which I eventually discovered was sealed in a sterile dressing. I began to look around my body and started to notice that intravenous fluid had been infused into my right wrist. Then I glanced around and observed soft gel artifacts wallpapered on my chest, which I presumed were linked in some way to the equipment that was steadily rhythmic thumping on my side. I must have been dressed in a white gown that I later found for a hospital gown. I decided to shift my body into a better position, but I grimaced in extreme discomfort and pain. Just then, the door to my hospital room suddenly opened, and I was jolted by the sudden appearance of a person who could be my doctor. My attention has been drawn to the man who was trailing behind my doctor. He was dressed in a black coat and loo

CHAPTER 55 - Bitterness

Chad's POV Lovi and I are casually walking around the shopping complex and enjoying each other's company. I would never want to jump to any conclusions or misconstrue it, but I definitely think this is just what they consider a getting-to-know-you phase. We were snacking a cotton candy, which would have been a sickly sweet treat with colors of the rainbow. I am sorry to have to say that I had never even heard of it, although it was full of flavor and perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth. I remembered her simply trying to point out to a vendor standing just next to his candy cart earlier, and the manner her lips pouted with her puppy dog eyes, I started to realize she was so sweet and adorable and looks almost exactly like a pre-schooler asking her father to purchase her some candy bars. Dad? Yuck. There is really no way I am a child predator, and if we are having a discussion about age, we are

CHAPTER 56 - Celestial Sphere

Megan's POV I had only just successfully completed taking a shower and had been dolled up in a crimson red sleeveless top that partially covered my body. It accentuates all my body's perfect contours, and even more so my cleavage and my fair-skinned and lengthy thighs. I tried to swing in front of my full-length mirror and spritzed a mist of perfume to give myself a more alluring pervasiveness. Then I slowly opened the bathroom door to my room and decided to stand there leaning against it. I bit my finger as I gazed coquettishly at Cloud, who may have been sitting in bed, totally and utterly, deeply engaged in his own thoughts. I was expecting him to be gobsmacked and approach me in the door frame like he should have to, but his mind and thoughts seemed to have been somewhere else. He seemed to be staring straight at me, but then you can see that his field of vision was not largely centered on me. I took a deep breath and tr

CHAPTER 57 - Treacherous Trails

Unknown POV I am interested to know how often these days I had already left to sort this mess out. I have spent so long hovering the very same nook and cranny for the recent months. Furthermore, I managed to keep myself distracted with things that I wanted to do to take the focus away from myself from the actuality that was seeking for me through my front door. There seem to be days when I am capable of handling my self-destructive sentiments, and that some nights are extremely critical, and I am continuing to learn that the next day I would get by is existence. I am trying to ascertain how many months I will really sketch various shades on my portrait; I do not even have a particular strategy. Some hours each night, I do not really feel positive about what I have accomplished in the last several months. It seems to be like something is seriously lacking as if I should have performed more. Especially given the fact that I grew up knowing I

CHAPTER 58 - Mazes and Enigmas

Lovi's POV "Are you quite certain that you are not going to talk to me?" Chad wondered out loud. I paused for a moment, taking a deep and heavy breath, before having to turn around and looking at him again. We have been in the park, immediately after finishing a romantic dinner at a nearby diner. We have been taking a stroll around in the middle of the night, intimately involved in meaningful conversations as we ingested the refreshing, evening gust of wind. This was a really dreamy evening for both of us. There was just something that he had said that caught me off guard and washed away the incredible moments we had managed to spend together. "What precisely do you really want me to say?" I asked indifferently. Chad began to look at me with bemusement in his eyes. "I am not absolutely positive! I mean, how am I supposed to go about doing that? And, in the reality, of course, I was not really givin

CHAPTER 59 - Dark Manuscripts

Athena's POV I had spent so long staring blankly at the ceiling for a few hours as I lay frozen in place on the bed. It has been a few months, which has now become my typical scenario. So many things started to change, and I am pretty damn sure it was not for the greater good. While I was able to return to work, I have always had the great deal of uncertainty that perhaps the original Athena, who was constantly faced with grave danger and scared to death during that dreadful night four months ago, must have disappeared. And I have this uncomfortable feeling that I will never be able to easily find her and bring her back. In fact, it makes it appear that I would never be the same, ever again. I was admitted to a hospital for a month after that disturbing evening. In terms of the physical injury, I had withstood a tremendous amount. I had suffered severe blood loss as a result of the inexplicable mutilation, in which one of my to
