Bruce was sorting through some paperwork in the station when his phone rang. He checked the caller ID but it was an unknown caller. Bruce was skeptical about picking up the phone. It might still be Kelly calling him.Ever since she left, the station has been somewhat uncomfortable for him. She had turned in her resignation letter and left immediately after she confirmed Ivan's death. Bruce was then meant to close the case which he concluded to be an unfortunate accident. The explosion was accredited to a gas explosion and everything else went as it should."Hello?" Bruce asked as he picked up the phone."Detective Bruce. This is officer Joel from the city's correctional center. I'm calling in respect of a prisoner you sent here some time ago. Joe Thorn," a man said over the phone.Bruce was curious to know what was going on."What has happened to Joe?"

"Is he giving you trouble?" The voice asked and Joe Turned his head to the side.Standing there was a young lady with beautiful long legs and a fierce smile. She wore a pretty black dress, and had a briefcase in her hand. The lady smiled again as she approached Murray."Joe, this is my daughter Carina." Murray introduced her. But Joe was too stunned by her beauty to even reply."Hello, Joe. My father has told me so much about you. He says you are the perfect candidate for The job and looking at you now, I think I'm begining to understand why," she said to him."Pardon me, miss Carina but I am about to take a job that I know nothing if it's details. It's shady if you ask me. You know, before all of this happened, I used to have good instincts and now my instincts are…""What are your instincts telling you?" She cut in. Joe was silent for a moment while he gazed deeply at her."My instincts tell me that I cannot trust you both," he replied to them. Carina laughed and took her seat."Hav

"He did what? Who the fuck does he think he is? Boss, give me permission to find that mother fucker and deal with him!" Kevin fumed."It's alright Kevin. I have a feeling that you won't find anything on him anyway. June, did my mother never mention anything about the other guardians ever to you or the organization?" Lecter asked her."Your mother was especially against us asking ques about the guardians. If it wasn't necessary for her to tell us about where she got the ring, I'm sure she never would have mentioned the term. I don't think your mother parted with the guardians on a good note. Maybe that's why she was always against us trying to dig into her past," June added. Lecter sighed."Well, if I have an enemy at my door, I have to go into that past and dig it," Lecter voiced out. A dead silence fell on the place as Lecter kept thinking. He wondered if the ring could assist him in getting what he wanted.But then his phone rang and it was an unknown number. Lecter hung up the call

Venita quickly grabbed her car keys and tried to step out of the house. She had a contract briefing that she thought could help Thorn Incorporated thrive and she could not afford to let it slide. Morris her father was overseas for some business regarding Thorn Incorporated as well and so she had to be in charge of managing the business all by herself."Fuck!" She groaned while she headed outBut remembered that she had forgotten her phone inside. Venita rushed back into her room, grabbed the phone and stepped down.

Joe cut her off and laughed. He clicked his tongue and sighed, while making himself comfortab

Getting home, Lecter pulled Anna into an embrace. He kissed her deeply and she moaned in response."Seems like someone missed me," she said to him and smiled."You have no idea," Lecter replied and kissed her again. She then pulled away and looked into his eyes"Lecter dear, we have a guest," she said to him. Lecter furrowed his brows as he looked around."I don't see anyone," he replied to her."She's in the living room waiting for you," Anna told him. "She?" Lecter was surprised. Who was that and what did they want? Anna helped him pull the Blazer and then dropped it on the bed. Then, Lecter headed out of the bedroom to the living room.Carina who has been there waiting suddenly jumped to her feet when she saw Lecter approaching.
