Once I had the things I needed packed up and after Lucas bagged up the black pair of stained panties to take down to the police station to get tested, we headed back to Cedric's house in silence. I was so freaked out that the nerves swarming around inside my belly didn't allow me to say anything. Instead, I felt helpless and started to bite my nails, a bad habit I started when I was young when my parents died. I only do it when I'm extremely stressed and right now, they way I'm feeling is even over the line of extremely stressed. Cedric was pissed the entire way back. He didn't say a word to me, just kept calling people at the station, demanding they push a rush in for the DNA off my panties. We are now sitting down at the kitchen table. The first thing I did when I walked inside was head straight for the kitchen and towards my new coffee pot. I wouldn't be sleeping much tonight anyway, and coffee really doesn't keep me awake. “Babe, coffee at night?” Cedric asks me as I prepared

Cedric didn't come pick me until late in the afternoon. He wasn't in a cheerful mood when he got there. He informed me that the first missing woman had been dead for a day, and the new woman's house had blood on the bedsheets. I had asked him for their names. I needed to know them, but he refused. At first, he told me it was because he couldn't talk about the case, but later that night he admitted to me that he didn't want me to know. I felt enough guilt as it was, and he didn't need me to start looking them up just to make myself feel even worse.Anna had come over the next day for dinner. I had texted her, telling her we needed to speak with her about something. I didn't need Mrs. Helen to slip and speak with Avery about me and Cedric being together before I had the chance and frankly, the balls to tell her myself.“What did you want to talk to me about, Ave's?” Anna had asked me after we all finished eating supper. “What's going on with you and my brother? Why are you here, inviti

We didn't even make it through the front door before Cedric grabbed into his arms, pushing my back against the wall, and slammed his mouth down on his. “You have no idea what you do to me, baby.” He whispered before sucking my bottom lip into his mouth, and I could feel exactly what I did to him. His dick was pressing up against me, causing me to moan at the friction. I needed more.“I do because you do it to me.” I moaned against his lips, wrapped my arms around his neck and lightly jumped up, wrapping my legs around his hips, making us both to gasp with need as his dick touched against me in the right spot.“Fuck baby, I want you.” He growled and tenderly grinned his hard dick through his pants between my legs, causing my panties become soaked as I felt the head of his dick rub against my clit. “You have me. I'm yours Cedric.” I cried, bringing my mouth again to his neck, biting it before sucking his skin into my mouth. He grabbed me by my hair and pulled my head back, and I saw

Cedric agreed we could go out with my coworkers that night. We had a great time, and may have drank a little bit. My man didn't drink, he just kept looking around to make sure I was safe while I enjoyed my night out with my friends. I invited Anna to come out and join us, but she was working late on a case at the law firm she works at and told me she would join next time.We went around sharing some of the most ridiculous calls we have received since becoming operators.“I always get the pranking kids. Calling me about if my fridge is running, I'd better go catch it.” Howled Wanda. “No matter how many times I have heard that over the years, I swear it never gets old.“Oh that's nothing. I had a man call me crying because he couldn't find his cat. I told him a missing cat wasn't really an emergency for us, but he then started to tell me that he was unable to find a woman that would date him because he still lived with his mom and he ended up getting adoption papers done for his cat.” R

“Why did you call them?” I snapped at Lucas. I don't have time to deal with my worried family right now. I need to find my girl, and we have no mother fucking leads. I don't have time for this bullshit.“We needed help. We need people who know Avery. Maybe we missed something.” Lucas growled, looking pissed. “Do I need to lock you down?”“Noone is fucking locking me down. Do you hear me? Brother or not, I will fucking beat your ass if you try.” I snarled and got into his face. “That's enough.” My dad shouted and put his hand out, pushing me and Lucas apart. “This isn't helping, Cedric. I know your pissed son, I know your worried, but you behaving like this isn't going to fucking help.” Damn, I have not heard my dad curse in years. “Your right. Sorry.” I whispered and rubbed my hands down my face. I'm the best detective the station has, and right now, that means nothing. I can't do fucking anything to get my girl back. I know nothing. “Conor has been calling the surrounding towns
