Chapter 23
Josephine’s POV
My eyes cracked open as I heard my phone ringing. Michael was asleep next to me so I grabbed it and walked into the hall. “Hello, this is Wells.”
“Joey this is Captain White. There has been another murder. Well, actually two murders.” I could hear something was off in his voice. It was starting to worry me.
“Yes sir where are the bodies?” He gave me the address and as I wrote it down the address looked familiar to me. “Sir why does this address look familiar?”
“Well, it is Ethan Graves's parent's house. Where he grew up. It also was in the file on Rose.” That’s right they were her neighbors a

I stared at him in disbelief. “What did you just say?”“I didn’t stutter Joey. I killed them all including Tara and Cooper.” I took a seat in front of him. I stared into his eyes and I could see no hint of anything wrong at first. I pulled out the pictures of all the victims.“Okay, James if what you are saying is true then let’s start with the first. I want you to tell me everything you did to each and every one of them.” He looked at me and then looked at the window and back at me again. I knew something wasn’t right. He may have been guilty of taking drugs while on duty but he wasn’t a murderer. “James, look at me. What is going on? We were partners. I know you aren’t responsible for this.”“I can’t Joey. Just book me for the murders. I have to do this.” He wouldn’t say anything else after that. I walked out and into the hall. White was there waiting for me.

“Joey, can you hear me? God, please talk to me.” I could hear the voices around me but I couldn’t open my eyes or say anything. I kept coming in and out. I knew that I was hurt but I didn’t remember why. I kept having images of different things but they were blurry. My body finally gave in and my brain shut down long enough to recover.Two days later...“Doctor she has been out for two days now. Is she okay?”“All her test have come back normal. I think her body just needs to rest. The explosion was very rough on her.” I cracked my eyes open and saw my mother sitting next to me and Ethan was talking with the doctor.“Mom. Whe

Michael's POV...I opened my eyes and the room was dark. I tried to sit up but the sharp pain that shot through my side was unbearable. I heard some noise coming from what I could only guess was a door. "Hello. I need help please." I heard some shuffling and then the door opened. The light was blinding at first but then my eyes adjusted."Why Michael so nice for you to finally join us. I have someone here that wants to see you." That voice. The man had stayed just outside of my view. I saw a shadow move around and then I saw her."Michael? Are you ok?" My Joey stood there bloody and hurt."Joey. I'm ok baby. Are you ok? What is going on? Who is out there with you?" Her eyes had tears in them as she was moved out of the way and there

I went to Michael and could feel a pulse but it was very faint. “Hold on Michael. Don’t you fucking die on me.” I went back over to Ethan’s body and searched his pockets. I found the keys to the chains and also his cellphone. I called for help and then unchained Michael laying him carefully down on the floor. I found some clean rags and started to put pressure on his wounds.I felt the tears in my eyes as I looked down at his lifeless body. “Please baby you can’t leave me yet.” I felt his hand twitch and hold mine. I looked at him as he wiped a tear from my face.“I’m not leaving yet. I’m not done loving you.” That just made me cry more as I held his hand tightly and kept pressure on his wounds. Within minutes we were surrounded by police and EMTs. They

Ethan’s POV...I laid quietly watching that bastard propose to my woman. The small space I hid in made it hard to not make a sound and the anger inside me made it hard to not jump down there and kill him and claim her. I knew that I had to wait though. Since my escape, they have been looking everywhere for me except for where I actually was. Michael also has made sure that someone is always with Josephine so I have just been sitting in wait for my time. I had it planned out and knew my way of escape once I had what was mine. I knew that eventually someone would fuck up and give me my opportunity. I laid there waiting for her response to his proposal.“Yes! Yes, Michael of course I will marry you.” Her sweet voice hit my ears and the anger and pain inside me became too much. I crawled

Michael’s POV...“What do you mean you don’t know where she is?!” The doctor stood in front of me with fear in his eyes as I was losing my shit.“I’m sorry sir. We can’t find Ms. Wells or the nurse you said took her for testing. We have all security staff searching the hospital but they haven’t found anything.” My anger was at a breaking point as I slammed my fist into the wall next to me. Dan came next to me and put his hand on my shoulder.“We’ll find her. They can’t be far the only exit out of town has a checkpoint.” I looked at him and then back to the doctor.“Have you checked the security cameras
The Monster Within Chapter 30
When I came to I was lying in the bed. I wasn’t chained which was surprising considering I tried to escape. It was dark and the only light was from the moon coming in the window. I laid there a minute until my bladder made me get up. I started to sit up and that’s when I heard him move next to me. He was sitting in a chair next to my bed. “Why did you have to try and run? Now I have another body to get rid of and it’s all your fault.” I looked down because I knew the risk when I tried what I did but I did it anyway. He was right I was the reason she was dead.“I.. I..” I don’t know what came over me but it just hit me. “No. It’s not my fault Ethan. I didn’t shoot her and I didn’t kidnap myself. It’s your fault. You are the one who shot her and the one who kidnapped me and also the one who killed all those othe
The Monster Within Chapter 31
Ethan’s POV...I walked away leaving her to clean the kitchen. I knew she was playing with me. She only wants him and to get back to him. So for now I would wait. She would change her mind soon enough. If not I guess that I will have to kill him. I heard her walking around and then eventually heard her door close I wanted so badly to go to her and just take her but I wanted her to be fully healed as well. What I had planned would break her if I took her now.After about an hour I could hear her soft snoring from her room and I knew if I didn’t get out for a little bit I would hurt her. I needed to be careful though I know they are looking for me but I can’t fight the urge any longer. I opened the door and quickly and quietly walked out into the night air. I took off into the night lik
