CHAPTER 12
For the first time, that I could remember, Mack didn’t wake me up before my alarm!! I was enjoying the quiet I quickly made myself some toast and a cup of coffee. I walked back over to the window and enjoyed the view. After I ate, I headed to the kitchen and was about to put my dishes in the sink when my cell rang. So much for a peaceful morning! “Hello?”
“We caught a break in the case! Hurry up and get your ass down to the station.” Mack excitedly says.
Finally! We were one step closer to catching this sick son-of-a-bitch! “Ill be there in ten minutes.” I was so jazzed about the news that I showered, dressed and headed out the house in seven minutes. This must be some new world record!
As I flew down the stairs to the garage, I pulled my keys out of my jacket pocket and unlocked the 2007 Chevy Tahoe that I bought with the inheritance that my father left me. I turned on

Xavier couldn’t believe what he was hearing! He thought that he had gotten rid of Brent Cummings years ago. Either he was back, or Dwight make a mistake, but doubtful. Xavier thought to himself. He had always known that brent was a little off his rocker, but to commit these types of murders he had to be insane! How was he seducing very successful, independent women? He had never been good looking and women now a days, want young, attractive men. Brent was in his twenties when Sierra’s father was killed, he should be pushing his fifties by now! Xavier was trying to wrap his head around this information, but not doing a very good job of it.Dwight pulled him out of his thoughts. “You really are from the stone ages, aren’t you?” He asked, exasperated. “There is such a thing as cosmetic reconstructive surgery!”Xavier hadn’t realized that he h

For some reason, the police purposefully left out the fact that a locket was found at the crime scene and no other artifact was found at the first crime scene. The God of Torture knew that because the locket had sentimental value to Sierra, she was the reason that the locket wasn’t mentioned in the news. Granted he had added a personal touch posing Sheila Andercroft, an up-and-coming defense attorney for the state of Oregon. One thing that he acknowledged was that he loved to toy with his prey.The more he thought about it the more he regretted not displaying his first victim, Vicci. He found her roaming the dark alleyways between Main Street and Andes Blvd. She was his first mercy killing; even though he tortured her she never cried out or cringed in fear. She seemed to welcome the sweet release from the life she lived, he almost felt bad for her…almost.He had always been pleased with all the artwork he displayed, or a

There was no telling what Brent Cummings looked like now, too much time has passed. Mack and Sierra needed to get a photo circulated through the station and throughout the media, but so far, they had no ideas. “We could get a couple photos with different descriptions circulated.” Mack was getting exasperated. “Anything has got to be better than nothing!”“What descriptions, his hair could be a different color, length or he could even be bald. He could have had facial reconstructive surgery; the list goes on! There are just way too many differences.” I wasn’t trying to purposefully be negative, but they all needed to face the facts that this was getting to be just about impossible. “I think that what we need is to call it a night and regroup in the morning, we’ll have fresh eyes and cleared minds.”Mack nodded in agreement; they had headed out the d

“Are you ready to order, sir?” The waitress, at Michelangelo’s Fine Italian Cuisine, was a cute little blonde, with legs for days and full, luscious lips. She had deep green eyes and an hourglass shape. She looked like she was no more than seventeen years old. I wondered what she would look like with tiny cuts all over her soft, milky skin. The images were turning me on, and I needed to keep my mind in the game.“Not quite yet, but I will have bottle of sparkling white wine, chilled, if you would be so kind.” I forced the most charming smile that I could.She smiled at me seductively. “I will be right back with your wine, sir.” She was gone about ten minutes, the wine she brought must have been very special; I wasn’t familiar with the name. as the waitress poured it into a wine glass, I noticed that it was almost clear in color. I took a sip and was pleased with

“You need to get over to my house ASAP!” When Xavier received the call, he noted that Dwight sounded very scared. Maybe he found something important. He raced over to Dwight’s house as fast as possible. Dwight didn’t even wait for the knock on the door; he was already pulling Xavier inside the house.“So, what is so important, I’m dying to know!” Xavier commented as Dwight bolted every window and door. Once everything was secure, Dwight finally answered.“That guy, Brent Cummings, is more dangerous than we thought! He has many different aliases; so far, I have been able to track some of them. I still don’t know what he looks like. I was able to talk to all but one of the cosmetic surgeons that do surgeries on the side, off the books, there were about four. Three of them have rock solid alibis.”“What about the fourth doctor?&rdqu

Even though Mack should be happy for Sierra he had to admit that he was a little apprehensive about Tucker Gillian. The search he did came up with very little about him. He didn’t exist until seven years ago, when he became the most sought-after veterinarian in Klamath. Mack just couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something off about him. Maybe I was just being a little too protective, I just can’t help it! Sierra is like a little sister to me; she is my family. He thought to himself as he headed to the basement.He was told to go to the morgue, the doc had found out some new information that he hadn’t seen at the crime scene. “What have you found doc?” He asked as he checked his phone for the millionth time! Sierra should have called by now; this wasn’t like her especially since she knew that they had a hot case!“Well as you already know, she was beat

I was really enjoying myself; Tucker was a great guy. He’s funny and smart, not to mention that he is extremely sexy! It should be illegal how attractive this man is! I was having so much fun that I hadn’t realized that we polished off the entire bottle of wine already. The food was absolutely wonderful, and the wine wasn’t too bad either. Tucker let me try some of his duck, since I’ve never tasted it before. I thought that it tasted like chicken, good but not my cup of tea.“Would you like some more wine or some dessert?” Tucker asked with a mischievous grin on his beautiful face. I could tell he was getting turned on every time I like my lips, he was watching me like a hawk and the sexual tension was thick between us. I can’t deny that his touch didn’t set my skin a flame and a heat stirring deep inside my abdomen! It was getting hot in the restaurant, or the wine was

Xavier stayed where he was as he saw “Tucker” and Sierra leave the restaurant. He followed them in the car that he borrowed from Mack. From what he could tell they had no idea that he was even there, which was good. He followed them down the dark, dirt road until they came to a stop. He knew that he didn’t have much time to get Sierra out of harm’s way, so he quietly snuck up behind his car. He waited for a few minutes then reached the driver side door. As soon as he saw the terror on Sierra's face, he knew that he needed to get her to safety and fast!He struck the window on the driver's door and watched it shatter; he then reached through the broken window and grabbed a handful of "Tucker's" hair and yanked his head back far enough to slide his other arm around his throat. When Xavier had his arm in place he applied just enough pressure to slow his oxygen intake to the point that "Tucker" passed out.H
