"Wow, look at that smooth flawless skin!""His lip is sexy, can't help but want to kiss him""He's perfect!"Sam's eyes widened."Find out where they're broadcasting!" Sam exclaimed.Erw raced against time, coding the video location and mapping out several broadcast signal spots. They only had a short window to act; they needed to move fast."Damnit, those people," Sam clenched his fists, and the video keep the focus on Dakota, shooting up to his chest, with an unbuttoned shirt that showed his bare chest. They shoot every angle up and close."Please lower! He is very sexy, can I have him?""This is great, there is a handsome professor here""Let's bid for him!""Wow I'm ready to pay high for this angel"**Sam prepared his firearm, complete with the bulletproof vest he always wore before a raid, just like he and the police officers were about to do now. Rina had already gotten into the passenger seat; there were three vehicles from headquarters, with many more following behind on the r
CRIME BOOK 101 Not Much Time
Sam drove as fast as he could, connecting with Rina on the phone. "Have you guys made it there yet?" he asked. Rina and some police have been monitoring the movement near the pier on the other side, a few meters along the harbor where the culprit ran and threw the body.A few men stood on a boat still parked at the dock, two of them dressed in full clothing and masks that concealed their faces. Rina jumps out of the car even when the wheel hasn't fully stopped yet, on standby with her gun. The girl was ready with her weapon, signaling to several nearby officers to spread out in all directions. Rina with her small and light feet got close and stopped behind the other caravan nearby, getting close enough to fire. "Freeze! Stop right there!" As soon as Rina's voice echoed, the men seemed startled; one man immediately ran away, leaving the other standing in place, raising both hands in the air. "Stop him!" The fleeing man headed towards the parked boat, quickly jumping onto anoth
CRIME BOOK 101 A Role
Sam stifled a laugh; he wanted to chuckle, but Kimberly looked scarier than Dakota, even when Dakota was at his angriest. Kim hadn’t said anything to him, but he could tell just by looking at her eyes. "Um, well, that’s good, Dax. The culprit hasn’t been caught yet, so you’re still in danger. You should really listen to Kim, and Roger’s guys are trained; they’ll definitely be on high alert while watching over you. You can feel a bit safer, right?" Kim grabbed her bag from the couch, walked over to the bed, and kissed Dakota’s forehead briefly. "Get some rest; you still have a fever. I have some business to take care of. Sam, I want to talk to you outside for a minute." Sam, who was just about to get comfortable, straightened up. He glanced at Dakota, who shrugged in confusion, just as Kim disappeared through the door, and he quickly followed her, not wanting the young woman to get mad at him. Outside the room.Sam furrowed his brow as Kim handed him a piece of paper, both sta
CRIME BOOK 101 Break The Past
Four students, proven to be the web killers, were arrested: Daniel, Laura, Emmet, and Dina. They were caught on campus just before Dakota's class started, and to lure them out, Dakota had to go out and become bait.It was as if nothing had happened, and the kids thought it was all over after the headquarters announced they were closing the case, and they appeared with a lot of confidence. Dakota stood in his place. Sam stood next to him, watching Rina and her team escort the web killer suspects into the holding cell. It wasn’t a pleasant situation; these kids came from prominent families, government officials, famous people, and even former national athletes. The four young men stared straight at Dakota as they walked toward the cell. This case going to be so big.Laura and Dina looked like they had just been crying, their eyes and noses red, both lowering their faces when they caught Dakota’s gaze. Sam stood next to him watching Rina and her team members herd the web killers into a
CRIME BOOK 101 The Kite's Fall
Dakota’s apartment.Dakota had just taken off his coat when he noticed his phone screen light up; there was an incoming call from an unknown number. “Hello?”It took a moment for Dax to recognize the voice on the other end. He loosened his tie; being a professor at a prestigious university required him to dress as neatly as possible—suit and tie, that was his everyday look. It was a call from his dad’s personal assistant, Elina.“Hey, sorry El, but I can’t. There’s a seminar at the police station this Saturday. Just tell Dad I’ll visit afterward, maybe the day after tomorrow.”Dakota fixed his bangs, and it didn’t take long before the call ended. An invitation to his own birthday party—his dad was really trying to get closer to him in every way possible, even if it made him uncomfortable. It was so frustrating, he thought as he slowly made his way to the bathroom. Maybe he would cool off and soak in the tub for a while; he needed that.Not long after, while filling his bathtub, his p

Bayward Police headquarters.The leaves of the tree outside the window were pushed by the wind, tapping against the glass repeatedly. Sam’s gaze was far ahead, staring into the distance, even though Rina’s voice dominated his office as she presented her findings.Drrrrtttt.Sam’s phone on the table vibrated, and he quickly picked it up. Call from Kim."Hello, Kim, uh..." Sam raised his hand to glance at his watch."I might be able to get there by two in the afternoon. Do you have something going on? How’s Dax?" Sam took a deep breath, and stopped listening to Kim's feedback."He might just be exhausted. You can go; I’ll be there in an hour. We can’t take any risks, even though there’s someone watching over Dax in his room. He could still be in danger."Sam remembered that while Dakota was in the hospital last night, someone had broken into his apartment, rummaging through everything as if searching for something, even though security was tight. Luckily, Dax wasn’t there.Not long after
CRIME BOOK 101 Careless Sam
Dakota turned to Sam. "That’s why I asked you and Rina to come to my birthday party, because the culprit will be there." Sam didn’t budge, another puzzle. Even though he was a pretty sharp detective, he still found it hard to dive into Dakota's train of thought. "Can I know who it is?" Dakota nodded. "You should already know, Sam. Why are you asking me again?" Dakota seemed annoyed, which was rare since Sam always acted foolishly in front of him. "Okay, the woman, but you don’t have solid proof, Dax. We don’t have strong evidence, it’s all just hidden and vague traces." Dakota pushed the laptop in front of Sam, letting him see the screen where he has shared several photos. "Investigate the people in the police department first; we have spies here." Sam looked at the photos, which were none other than pictures of his own team, even the chief and the deputy, all filling the screen, including Thomas, Dakota's partner. "You’re not joking, are you, Dax?" Dakota neither
CRIME BOOK 101 Who's the Spy?
Back at the police station, Sam pushed the man named Robi towards the officer to take him to the holding cell. Dakota glanced at someone who had just exited Mr. Ron's office, walking a bit hurriedly. It was Thomas; he hadn’t seen him in a while because he had been busy transferring to another station out of town. His former colleague was back, limping slightly. “Tom, is your leg okay?” Dakota asked. The stocky man smiled at Dakota and raised his hand."Oh, it's nothing major, Dax. Just got a bit tangled up while chasing the suspect yesterday. I’ll go to a massage therapist and I’ll be fine afterward. Not a big deal. Oh, by the way, how's your case going?" Sam returned after dropping off the guy, just about to say something when Dakota jumped in first. "There's nothing much, same old, same old. We're still trying to find witnesses, but there hasn't been any significant progress yet." said Dakota.Sam frowned at Dakota's answer, but Thomas nodded. "Oh, I see. Well, if you need my

Bad Feeling
Emma sat back down, and it was now Rina's case. Sam looked serious until his phone in his pocket vibrated. A call from someone he wasn't expecting, just as he thought. Jack Moris from the federal agency."Yeah," Sam said, getting up from his seat. He glanced at Ron across from him, then got up to answer the phone.“You’re incredible! We haven’t even released any reports to headquarters, how did you know about this? Did you plant spies in our office?” Sam asked. Jack Moris’s voice boomed in his ear; Sam had to pull the phone away, his ear aching from the man’s thunderous tone.“Ouch, that’s loud,” he muttered, pressing the phone back to his ear.“This might not even be the same case. Why don’t you let us handle this first? You won’t be late getting information, trust me. It could just be a random attack, like what usually happens. Anyone can go crazy, right? Are you sure this is

What's Your Desire ?
Morning comes. The sun shone brightly until it hit the highest part of the Bayward One tower and reflected all around it.

Far below, the city's main roads are starting to fill with vehicles of all sizes sharing the pollution.Sam had just put on his leather jacket, today was going to be a busy one.

A Killing Machine?
It was getting late, midnight, and Sam had just finished cleaning up. He came out of the bathroom, toweling his hair with a small towel, his upper body bare except for a towel around his waist. He approached the bed where Dakota was already sitting, opening his laptop."Wow, it's midnight, my dear professor. Time for bed, why are you still working?" Sam said, stopping beside Dakota.Dakota looked up, seeing Sam's slightly wet, bare upper body displaying his muscular chest. Sam seemed quite proud of showing it off.Dakota just pursed his lips, ignoring Sam and continuing to look at his laptop screen. Sam smirked; he'd intentionally teased Dakota, but the young man was completely unaffected. He'd hoped for some kind of reaction.Sam sat down next to Dakota. But before he could sit on the soft bed, Dakota moved the pillow from his left side onto the bed, preventing Sam from sitting down."You can get a blanket from the closet. The couchis very s

More Than A Family
Dakota looked at the takeout container Luke had placed on the table. He watched him slowly sit down."Aren't you with guests? Why aren't you eating with them?" Dakota asked. Luke waved his hand dismissively."Let my secretary keep them company, I said I had important business. Look at this, supposedly amazing steak, almost perfect reviews. Next time we have time, we'll eat at the restaurant, they say it's much better there."said the man excitingly.Dakota looked at the logo on the box."I tried it last week with Sam."said Dakota.Luke's hand movement stopped; he looked disappointed."Oh, really? Was it good? How’sthe rate?" Luke asked."Yeah, pretty good," Dakota replied casually.Luke placed the plate in front of Dakota and carefully took out the neatly arranged steak from the box. Even though it was in a delivery container, the restaurant paid attention to quality, keeping it aesthetically pleasing wit

What's The Connection ?
Rina approached their office just as Sam came back in after dealing with the attackers. She looked annoyed.“Boss,”Sam turned. He was applying a compress to his jaw, which was swollen and slightly red from the hard hit.“What about the woman? Did she confess?” Sam asked.Rina and her boss went into their office. It was dark outside, and the air was getting cold. Everyone was exhausted.“She’s very good at making excuses, Boss. According to her secretary, there was information about a room that couldn’t be used; she told Amelia because she was in charge of the seminar. After that, she got word to move everyone to the auditorium at the last minute. All the information fits Amelia Roy’s alibi,” Rina replied.Sam sat down, wincing slightly from his bleeding lip, a souvenir from the thug’s punch.“She must have planned everything meticulously. Find out the woman&rsquo

A Brawl Broke Up
The wail of sirens echoed in the distance. Fire trucks had arrived and were tackling the blaze that erupted from an explosion of some electronic equipment in the now-destroyed auditorium building. Several ambulances pulled up, administering first aid to the victims, including Dakota, Luke Osborn, and Sam, who sat on the side of an ambulance, their faces and bodies covered in dust."Here, let me brush off your clothes," Sam said, brushing thick dust from Dakota's sleeve. They both looked like they'd just cleaned out an abandoned warehouse.Dakota had some scrapes on his forehead, and his clothes were torn; besides the aches and pains from the impact of the debris, they seemed alright. Medics bandaged a gash on Dakota's arm and Luke Osborn's forehead scrapes."Why did they target this building? Man, this was built less than two years ago. If they wanted to blow something up, they should've gone for that old building behind the lab," Luke said, propping his chin in his hands.Sam sat b

Not In A Good Place and Time
"Having no one to eat with is kind of weird, right? Is Mr. Meyers still reaching out to you?" Luke asked as he opened his takeout bag and pulled out his food, setting it in front of him. Dakota closed his laptop, watching Luke unpack his meal from the carton and arrange it neatly. The guy even opened the chopstick wrapper to hand it to Dakota."Why would he reach out to me? We're not that close," said Dakota.Luke raised his eyebrows at Dakota's response. "Oh, really? I thought you two were close. He often invites you to lunch and waits for your class to finish. If that's not close, then what is?"Dakota opened his lunch box. For some reason, he felt like trying the wet noodles Rina had recommended a while back; they looked pretty good."We have lunch together too,

No Time for Fever
The sun shone brightly, breaking through the curtains and hitting the long sofa in Dakota’s room. Sam lay face down there all night, still in the clothes he wore yesterday.“Ouch, my body,” he turned over, feeling sore after sleeping on that couch all night.Even though it was the softest, highest-quality sofa money could buy, it would still be more comfortable to sleep in a bed. He remembered that last night because he was so tired, he fell asleep on Dakota’s very tempting bed, so why did he end up there?“Boss, let’s go out!” Edi’s voice still echoed in his head. His forehead was hot, and he was sweating even though the room was cold. He pulled himself up and sat, glancing at Dakota’s neatly made bed. It was nearing noon, eight in the morning when h

Bomb Series
Sam frowned; he had misspoken.“I mean, don’t stay up too late. You’re still in recovery. The city is now in chaos; it’s better to stay in the apartment and lock all the doors. I’ve already asked Roger to add more people if needed.” Sam added.“What does that have to do with me? I have Edi here; don’t do unnecessary things. Since when does Roger have to listen to you?” said Dakota.Sam bit back the urge to shout. That stubborn one.“Since the honorable Prime Minister said I have to keep an eye on you, twenty-four hours a day, every second, every minute, even microseconds if necessary. So Roger and anyone else has to listen to me,” he said, annoyed.
