Chapter 2: Turnabout Is Fair Game
Apartment 42, The Bowerstone Apartment Complex, 4th And Flint Street, Attison District, Temple City (3040).....
By the time Det. Baddwulf arrived at his apartment complex he found that he had not been alone as Mrs. Callens, a gorgeous blonde bombshell of a woman with fringe curled hair pulled back into an elegant bun, she wore a stylish tight-fitting red dress that ride up her inner thigh and was well beyond her knee to be deemed appropriate by all manner of good society as she let her breasts, which were bare beneath the top of her dress show in the form of open cleavage as she stood with the sweet scent of her perfume, a kind of watered down variant of honeysuckle toilet water, filled the already drunken man's nose as he did his best to unlock the door while feeling himself being pulled via the magnetic impulse to pin the lovely woman up against the wooden door and have at her the way his loins saw fit. Despite the urge, however, he was much more of a gentleman than he cared to realize to do all that.
Mrs. Callens stood in front of his door as if she'd been waiting for him all night but had not said a word to him as he moved passed her. Her green eyes shimmered in the dim light of the inner hallway that lead to his place and the rancid stench of the often soggy and mildewed brown carpeting could do little to dampen the scent of the woman which wafted all about the place from her merely standing beside his door.
She'd been here before, of course once as a client and again when it came time to issue payment. Baddwulf finally got the door opened, after wrestling with his key to do so while being bombarded with the overall desire of his loins to have at the beautiful dame right then and there. She stepped inside the moment he offered holding the door open for her as his father had taught him to when wooing members of the opposite sex. He made his way inside, taking off his trench coat and hanging it on the rack behind the door as he did the same with her white coat that she carried draped at her forearms. Her ruby red lips were puckered and appealing as he finished hanging their respective coats before heading toward his kitchen where he fixed himself and his apparent guest a drink while she awaited his return via the light brown leather sofa she sat on in the living room. He handed her the glass, a drink consisting of light liquor made of vodka and olives with minimal ice cubes from his freezer.
He had a trusty shot of the brown stuff in the form of what the ones from the old era called "Tennessee Whiskey" before they figured out how to remake it and sell it on their own. It was an interesting thing learning from the digital files about the world before The Great Regression and the chaos that nearly ended the lives of billions on a grand scale just to fit the agenda and plots of a select few assholes who never mattered. The would-be "gods" of the age ended up going into hiding of course as the new era caught on to their twisted ways and spread the word from sea to shining sea so to speak.
Baddwulf sat down in his usual armchair prompting his trusty Russian Blue Cat, Sullivan to come from out of his bedroom and make himself known. Sullivan, known affectionately as "Sully" was silver in color with lovely dark green eyes and a sleek build. He had come across Baddwulf when he'd been a kitten scrounging about amid waste and garbage cans, The sentimental lad took him in despite the little kitten being somewhat of a canine in a feline's body. Sully meowed and hopped onto Baddwulf's lap nuzzling the grim man's chest via his head and curled into a ball to roll on his back in his master's lap before jumping back down again after receiving the amount of attention he desired from his owner.
Mrs. Callens thought him cute even adorable, but Sully could care less for her approval as he was only interested in Baddwulf. He ventured back toward the master bedroom and hopped back onto the bed where he took yet another nap in the solitude of the room as if they had not been in the living room at all.
Baddwulf had always been a sucker for a beautiful face, often doing more free favors for women than he had the men who had come to him even without the proposition of sex involved. Most of the time it was dames like Mrs. Callens who had been wronged by no good men. Baddwulf often delighted in taking the assholes down a peg and making the unhappy women smile either via his detective skills or the ones he acquired through trial in error when in the bedroom should they so desire him to.
While he genuinely believed in the sanctity of true marriage, he was also of the mindset that turnabout was fair game if the husband or wife was stupid enough to step out on their spouse even for the smallest of reasons. It was this mindset that made him both hypocritical and logical when dealing in the skin with known married women who had come to him for his personal skills as a means of getting back at their no-good husbands. Mrs. Callens had been one of the many young women taken for a ride by the man she committed her life to and now here she was throwing herself at the only man she seemed to trust which provided the bonus of further humiliating her wayward husband.
The blonde took notice of the blood from Baddwulf's nose and his busted lip. Without a word, she got to her feet after setting her half-empty glass down on the coffee table and moved about the apartment. It wasn't as if she hadn't known where everything was, as she'd been there before. Baddwulf relaxed in his chair reclining slightly as he slowly, sipped his drink. Mrs. Callens reappeared after rummaging for what she needed in the form of a wet washcloth that she dipped in a bowl of warm water as she set to work wiping away the blood from Baddwulf's mouth and lip. He winced a bit from the stinging sensation but allowed her to continue.
He didn't make a big deal out of it due to the fact that he'd been in worse scrapes and knew all it took for him to heal was a good night's rest. Of course, for much worse injuries he was prone to sleeping for a few days to heal properly. Baddwulf puffed on the remainder of his cigar before putting it out at the behest of Mrs. Callens' expression of disgust at his smoking habit, which she believed was counterproductive to healing after watching a bunch of digital files on medical records from the old era.
She slowly wiped away more of the blood and even further loosened Baddwulf's tie as she sought to get him out of the blood-stained shirt. He was stripped down to the white men's tank top shirt dubbed in the old era as "a wifebeater" due to men who often wore them in their age having a tendency to beat on their significant others while wearing them. Baddwulf had found them to be comfortable when enduring the agonies of a hot day, such as this one.
She took it off and carried it back to the bathroom, which was surprisingly clean and tidy. She tossed it into the hamper behind the door and ventured back toward the living room where he took her by the hand and pulled her gently down onto his lap.
They looked at each other for the longest time before her lips crashed into his still decidedly tender ones as she stroked his bearded face indulging in the needs of her own fantasy life as opposed to the sad sorry state of the one she lived when she left his apartment to go back to her own as Thom Callen's wife of six long years of lies and humiliation. Just as before, she concluded that her husband deserved a bit of humiliation of his own as she slowly trailed her free hand along the crotch of Baddwulf's trousers delighted to see the effect she had on him as his cock rapidly made itself known via the bulge that came with it.
A low growl rumbled from his throat and he proceeded to give in to his baser nature as he stood up, scooping the lovely blonde woman into his powerful arms and carried her back to his bedroom. Leaving behind the glasses of half-finished booze and his snuffed cigar on the coffee table. The moment he kicked open the bedroom door, Sullivan had hopped off the bed and rushed out into the hall as if he'd known the drill, he proceeded to venture toward the living room and hopped into the reclining armchair, and curled into a ball of silver fur as his master kicked the door closed to his bedroom after stepping inside with Mrs. Callens in his arms.
Sullivan rolled onto his back when he himself fell into a deep slumber ignoring the antics of his master and his guest as he had not a care in the world aside from his food and water dish being filled as he like it and a warm dry place to curl up at his leisure. As for Detective Baddwulf, he had been of the mindset that turnabout was fair game and as such proceeded to give Mrs. Callens as good as he'd gotten in terms of "fair play".
Chapter 3: The King Of SleazeApartment 42, The Bowerstone Apartment Complex, 4th And Flint Street, Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... The early hours of the morning had not been a welcome sight for Baddwulf as he rolled onto his back and found the space on the right side of his bed had been recently empty as the tussled covers revealed that Mrs. Callens had been up for quite some time as he caught a glimpse of her bent over and seeing to her delicate feet fitting back into her red high heels. Baddwulf slid from beneath the crisp white sheets and tan comforter that lined his bed and strolled rather casually behind Mrs. Callens. Who gasped when she felt him behind her. As far as looks went, Baddwulf was most definitely a desirable man given his washboard abs, lean muscle mass, superior strength even when not in combat, and oceanic blue eyes that gave any woman pause. He wrapped his arms around the nearly dressed woman kissing her neck and shoulders as she did her best to kee
Chapter 4: The Answering Of A SummonsJoe's Diner, 5th And Miller Street, Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... It was more of the usual when Baddwulf finally arrived at Joe's Diner, which he often frequented for a cup of hot coffee and a few donuts before heading out to see what he could scrounge up in terms of keeping his ear to the ground and his finger on the pulse of one district in Temple City that he'd been most fond of even as a youngster growing up on the outskirts of Beverland District due to the connections and vast wealth of his adopted father. Like any other day, he arrived in dark slacks, brown dress shoes, a tan long-sleeve shirt with black suspenders, a black tie, a black fedora pushed forward to cover his eyes, and a long grey trench coat. He smelled of cigarette smoke and didn't care who might have had a problem with it as he headed toward his usual seat in the front of the counter where he ordered a black cup of joe, and an aged glaze donut. He had plans f
Chapter 5: In For A Penny...In For A PoundingAttison District, Temple City (3040)..... The sweltering heat had not appeared to have let up as Baddwulf found himself in search of a bar for a cool drink to stave off the effects. He had been sweating up a storm, but managed to keep his head level as he moved about the street he wasn't too thrilled about his father having used Amanda Smalls of all people to track him down for the offer as he had known all too well that the redhead and his son had a history. It was a steamy undeniable history but there was always something to be said about a wolf chasing after a girl in red. Baddwulf had been halfway toward his office on the main street when he was suddenly ambushed by two goons in hoodlum attire that pushed him into a nearby alley. He wasn't surprised when they held him at gunpoint and started talking really tough.Of the two, one was the shortest and wore a dark brown suit with matching dress shoes and a worn fedora. He was a pale f
Chapter 6: A Nose For TroubleBaddwulf's Office Building, Main Street and Park, The Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... It was just another day at the office for Jake Summers as he sat at his respective desk mulling over the paperwork for the latest series of cases in a bid to figure out which one to present to his partner that would be interesting enough to pique his interest. The surprisingly thin, slightly pinked younger man, barely out of his teens and still wet behind the ears, had worn a pinstripe white long-sleeve shirt, a loose dark blue tie, and dark blue suit trousers and often paced the hardwood floor of the office wearing black dress shoes. Jake was a good kid, all things considered, he was orphaned after a fire saw his life going up in smoke along with his parents following a gang extortion attempt gone wrong. He grew up in Attison and met the smooth-talking wit-savvy brute known as Baddwulf when he'd taken on the thugs that burned the building he lived in dow
Chapter 7: Tempers And Tantrums4th Street and Ryanair, The Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... Coming hot off the heels of his recent attack via the thugs sent after him via Blacky Clay, Baddwulf had not been in the best of moods when prowling the streets that night. He'd been looking over his shoulder at every corner, but not out of fear as his rage was beginning to boil to the surface. As he continued his lone stroll it had occurred to him with the shouting around the corner and the shattering of glass and windows, that he had not been the only one upset about the way their day had been turning out. There was a woman who had caught her husband red-handed laying pipe for a younger woman in their living room while she'd been busting her hide all day at work. He'd gotten fired from his gigs so many times everyone had told her to ditch the bum. She stuck with him and put up with his laziness only for him to cheat on her with a younger woman while spending her hard-earned me
Chapter 8: Something Rotten, In The District Of AttisonMain Street and Park, The Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... Rapid-paced and bright flashing lights had gotten the attention of quite a few onlookers as many a curious and nosy person gathered outside to see what became of the person who had been merely a body with a crisp white sheet tossed over it while beat cops and onlookers muttered about what could have possibly happened and why. Baddwulf had already summed up the tragedy in a matter of seconds. From the brutality of the slaying and being that it was out in the open it proved that someone was adamant about sending a message of some sort, given the trajectory from being near his office, he knew that someone had wanted very badly to send a message. The beat cops came out of the woodwork to keep things civil and from spilling into Highland mostly to make the mayor look good. They ordinarily never patrolled in Attison District and it was a dead giveaway that the crime
Chapter 9: Dime A Dozen DamesThe Dope Diamond Gentleman's Club, Forth And Parkway, The Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... Hot pink and red neon lit up the dark black backdrop of the gritty inner city as Baddwulf found himself walking up toward the front door where the bouncers were ready and willing to throw anyone out to spoil the good time out into the street for so much as looking like they were going to be trouble. He plied them with a few black pennies for their thoughts before they allowed him inside with the strict warning that there was to be no trouble from him once he'd been let in. Baddwulf smirked, it was apparent that his reputation of sorts was getting around even in strip clubs. Of all the places in Temple City to bring the conflicting classes together, The Dope Diamond was just such a place, or at least it had been the case for the degenerates across the conflicting classes at least.The flashing pink and red neon had been a welcome staple for the darkened
Chapter 10: A Sucker For A Pretty FaceApartment 42, The Bowerstone Apartment Complex, 4th And Flint Street, The Attison District, Temple City (3040)..... By the time Baddwulf had stuck his key in the door, he noticed that his apartment had not been how he left it, almost immediately the scent of something akin to perfume and arousal hit his flaring nostrils and he stepped inside almost driven by impulse. He'd still been more than a little riled up due to the dances at The Dope Diamond Club, but he had done his best to see his way home and keep his mind on business. Sullivan seemed to have been fine as he made himself known via the center of Baddwulf's reclining chair as the puzzled detective moved about the apartment locking the door behind him and tossing his keys onto the nearby table. Whoever had been inside, was definitely female as the scent of arousal began to have a tremendous effect on him causing his cock to rapidly swell and tent the front of his trousers.Moving swiftl
