The Innocent Coben Novels & Stories

Every person has been given a different understanding. She looked down before she decided to voice out her thinking, “I can’t save the body from getting dirty like a cloth, but I can save the soul from getting dirty. This may sound funny to people, but for me, my innocence is still intact.” Rebecca remained silent. “If my body commits a crime, it will get mixed in the soil and beyond that, it can’t receive anything, but if the soul sins, it’ll burn in the fire of hell which will never end.”

“No, she’s an important client to Sonny. She’s visiting the manor.” “Oh,” Koben replied. “Here they come. Stop talking.” Even Koben knew that some things should be kept out of earshot. “Heath, don’t tell anyone that I mistook the girl for a boy.” Koben reminded Heath, worried the latter would expose his embarrassing blunder. The lady was wearing a dress. Yet, Koben still thought she was a guy. To be fair, he did find it strange that a guy was wearing a dress. As it turned out, she was a girl.

My mother said looking at herself in the mirror. "I'm meeting up with her at The Vista club this weekend," I said adjusting my tie "Do you think she knows about what the family is really into?" She questions me "No she sounds too...innocent they must not want to break her too soon," I said "And I'm guessing you will?" She replied smirking evilly "Definitely besides this could work in our favor, the news only showed her in a mask probably not wanting to reveal her identity as of yet," I said

Bob glared at them In surprise but in an instant, he understood the situation where they had to pretend to be a fiance. "I know for sure you must be a private detective?" guessed Bob with squinted eyes. Noah and Rachel looked at each other then Noah nodded because he doesn't want Bob to ask further questions about him. "Yeah, that's how it is, alright then we have to deliver this evidence to the police station thanks a lot for your help, Bob," Rachel got up and hugged Bob warmly. "I owe you forever Bob, thank you so much!" she said sincerely. Bob nodded with smile his eyes glistening with tears.

Koben shook his head and glanced at Christian before uttering in disdain, “I’m fine. I just see it as a mad dog barking on the streets. Forget him. Come on.” Christian wasn’t going to let Tabitha leave with another man. Standing in their way, Christian fixated on Koben. Christian heard Tabitha addressing Koben, and the name rang a bell. He studied Koben’s sharp facial features until the realization dawned on him. “You’re Koben Nash.” Folding his arms, Koben looked at Christian defiantly. “Yeah? And if I am?” Christian had met Koben on a handful of occasions during the year he spent courting Tabitha, before the two finally made things official.

“Even if you did do that, I’m sure you have a reason for it!” The round-faced inspector coughed awkwardly. “Ms. Moreno, we’re also hoping that your friend or fiance here is actually innocent. However, there are just too many witnesses from the Cobb family that say otherwise!” The bald inspector nodded. “Right! Unless there’s solid proof of his innocence…” “Nobody’s allowed to bail him out!” The bald inspector puffed up his stomach and ran his mouth to flaunt his authority. “Even Inspector Failes can’t do anything about this!”

I shuddered as I was once again forced to recall the gory memory. "I heard that the suspected murderer is Nate Cohen. No surprise there." Skylar added solemnly. My interest spiked up. Nate Cohen? Could she be talking about the same man who I'd seen with Allison's unconscious body that night and the one who'd broken into my apartment earlier? "So, who is this Nate Cohen?" I asked, trying to sound casual.

There was a clear smugness in her eyes as she watched him. Oddly enough, she didn't seem to feel the slightest bit of guilt after having someone killed. Then again, as she had said, that road was remote. There were no witnesses or cameras to prove her crime. "Thank—" Just as Caroline was about to speak, Jerome's phone rang. "Hello. Who's on the line?" "Are you a relative of Monica Newman? Please come to the police station to identify the body."

She glanced up to see Maribel smirking devilishly. Then she heard him speak, his voice, loud and stern. “ Seraphina of the Branton family. You've been arrested for committing the sixth crime.” ‘ Why..why is the prince announcing that? Wh.. what's going on?’ Different thoughts of confusion thudded in her chest. Her face twisted with anxiety. “ The sixth crime you committed, was having an indecent affair with your brother, Caleb.” “ What?!” she exclaimed, eyes bulging out of the socket.

the man says, his voice deep and hard "You have a knack for stealing things from me and it's time I remedy that" "Have you lost your mind Da-" "On the contrary. I was going to give you a year or two but as always, you just proved to me that you don't deserve it" in a move no one sees, he grabs Romeo and stabs him in the neck. Collective gasps ring out in the air as everyone jumps up. Not everyone. Just people from Cosa nostra. No one from Barnacle Bay even flinches "You have a habit of taking things from me, uncle. My territory, my family, my woman. It ends. Right. Now"
