VALESKAMonday, I came down to the station in John's car, bringing Dante along in cuffs.I pretended to have found him roaming around the city like a free man, so no one would suspect a thing.My commander finally gave out a sigh of relief, because other officers couldn't trace his location. They thought he had fled the city."Talk about being bold enough to call my number and give me details on how you're relaxing outside prison," I added to make it sound believable, rolling my eyes at Dante.He kept himself composed, looking at my commander like he was gonna eat him if I take his cuffs off.And my commander just stood aside with fear, giving me the go ahead to take Dante to his cell."Right away, sir," I said, pulling Dante away.When we got to the prison block, arriving on Area 4, "You are one good actress, Officer Valentine," Dante teased, turning his head back to smirk at me.Seeing that look all o

VALESKA"Have you gotten any reply from Oakhaven station?" John asked me over the phone while I sat on my bed with Blackwell's record, working on Dante's case.Even though Dante would be getting transferred, I still want to clear his name from the allegations laid on his head by that criminal billionaire.Who knows how many other crimes this man has been framed for."Not yet. But I should get something soon. When I do, I'll let you know.""Alright, Val. We'll continue tomorrow. Make sure you get some rest.""I will. Goodnight.""Goodnight," John wished, ending the call.I dropped my phone and fell back in my bed to wait for this feedback I'm waiting for.After we got those details on Dante's record, we decided to reach Oakhaven station to see if we'd get any more information about him, and maybe see if it matches what is on our system."I'll find a way," I sighed, closing my eyes, imagining mys

VALESKAJohn wasn't joking when he said he'll get me there fast.We arrived at the station and found our commander standing outside, looking out into the distance like he was just watching someone leave.Seeing that look on his face, "Commander! " I called, jumping out of the car quickly."Cathaway? Officer John? Aren't you supposed to be on patrol?" He asked, narrowing his brow in surprise.I didn't give him any answer to that question but stood before him and asked, "Sir, has Dante left yet? Is he still around?""Dante?" He responded, looking back into the direction I met him staring at when we showed up.Then he answered, pointing right in that path, "He just left in the van.""Now?" My heart skipped, as I looked into the exact road my commander was pointing at.Dante just left. Who's driving?"Who did you assign to transport him, sir?" I asked immediately, as John came standing by my side.My commander frowned his face at my question and asked, "Why the interrogation, Cathaway? Yo

VALESKA"She's all good and out of danger," A man with a stethoscope around his neck, said to Dante while running a check on me.I was back in bed, legs up, right hand given a little plaster because I unknowingly detached my IV line while trying to feel my head earlier and spilled my blood around without knowing, and my bandaged head —which I didn't know was bandaged— being attended to by him.As it turns out, he's a private doctor Dante hired to attend to me.His appearance is nothing like those modest doctors we see in hospitals. This dude looks like he works in a gym, with tattoos all over his left arm like a sleeve.It almost looks like Dante's tattoos which are on both arms. And from the way he looked, I can guess that he works-works for Dante."Just a day or two and she should be able to walk around without her legs shaking," He added, reaching for the bedside vital signs monitor to turn it off.Another instrument

VALESKAThree days in and I was back on my feet.The wobbling stopped like the doctor had said, so I was able to move around on my own, without Dante having to carry me.Well, he still gets naughty and picks me up when he feels like it. And no matter how I try to order him to drop me down, he smirks and reminds me who the boss is around.When he makes that reminder, being all romantic with me, with those flirty eyes giving me a good look down to my lips, I end up weak, letting him do what he wants.At least he gets to do that when he sees me. Now that my legs are strong enough to walk on their own, I always dodge Dante... for some time.His mansion is by far, way better than my place and better than any other mansion I've visited before.Every area is eye-catching. There's even a rooftop spot for relaxation, where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the view from above.What amazes me more is that his mansion on the mountain is located at the South Side of Atlas City.This area isn't very c
