Fabio, sat in the blood red booth of a diner with his friends. His fingers wrapped around the coffee he ordered. The distinct scent of chicken and curry permeated the diner, gurgling the stomachs of everyone oresent exceot the three detectives that were busy going around the details of the case they were working on. Christian's eyebrows were scrunched up, the crease in between displayed the frustration dancing in his heart and the hand that grabbed his hair was another proof of such frustration. His friends were no different, Daniel who was not used to holding up expressions other than anger and apathy, was suddenly placed in a position where he could not hide the confusion of the facts built up like a maze around him. He was not good with mazes. Fabio on the other hand seemed tonhave gotten a sligj understanding of what they were dealing with. The hot coffee that hebhad downed blessed his tongue with a taste that was too strong and as such, rather unpleasant. But just like Daniel,
Jade looked at Carolene recognizing the grimace on her face, giving her a bit of tingle in her stomach. She ignired the feeling and turned away from Carolene, needing the distbace between them to be longer. Carolene however was more foxused on watching jow jade suddenky seemed so out of it. It gave her a sort of pleasure knowing. She shook her head. "And what am i going to do that for?" Jade asked as she olayed wuth the flower petals on the sife of the room. She had seen when Wesley was makingbthe orders for these flowers but it shocked her becauee she didn't see the florist or thebdekivery guy come in. It was a bouquet of roses, red, beautiful roses that tugged on her heart making it seem wuite ugly. "You do know that the DeVilles hav a secret". Carolene said. "Secret?" She asked, but then she suddenly remebered that they werent in the room alone. She turned to the nurse who was still writing on her journal she had her eyes oinned but jade could see that her ears shifted. She
Wynn shifted on the bed as she saw jade standing there looking at her. She could see the confusion in jade's eyes as they ransacked her, as if searching for something. Jade was busy looking over Wynn, teying to find out what coykd be the reason why she was laying down on a hospital bed. But no matter how deeply she looked, all she saw were mere scratches and whatnots but nothing seemingly serious. She rested on one leg, and folded her hands as she saw that Wynn was not in any dire condition "what are you doing in a hospital?" "She fekt like taking a vacation" Leah answered as as she moved closer to the muted Wynn. Wynn only gave jade another glance before she turned to the side and stared ahead. This sudden action surprised jade, she turned to where Leah was standing close to Wynn as if scared to go any closer. "What happened to her?" Jade asked. Leah looked at Wynn and wondered if it was okay to telk jade, seeng that Wynn wasn't saying anything, not even giving them an acknow
Kraig stands beside the door to Wynn's ward. He refuses to go in thinkingbthat Wynn woukd surely be uncomfortable with him aroynd. He bekeiebd that if yhe doctor wasnt wesring his coat that signifies he was a doctir, then surely Wynn woukdnt even want him anywhere close to her. He peered into the room where he saw the doctor having a conversation wuth Wynn. Thw conversation didnt look to be serious and considering their previous words, he believed that the doctor was telling her of their recent agreement. That she would bee seeing a therapist. It was better that the doctor explained things to her himslef so that she wouldn't get the wrong idea and think that Kraig was calking her stupid or broken. In this phase of her life, she was a very unpredictable woman and Kraig wasn't about to ket himself take the wrong step and end up pissing her off. When he saw that the conversation ended and the doctor was walking out kf the room, he quickly shifted from the door, satuing a few feet away
"You need me to chauffeur your princess?" Had had her hand on the vending machine door that she had pried open, she held a can of coke in her hand, with eyebrows raised and a quizzical looknin her eyes, she waited for Kraig's reply. Kraig took a deeo breath in. He hated being in this space, needeing to ask peole for help, especially when that person was jade. His relationship wuth jade had taken a lot of rides, and he now his feekings for her were daily inching towards the side of hatred. "Yes," he said, seeing the need to add further explanation, he said: "the doctor feels its better if shes around women and you're the only familiar woman I could find". Recalling that she had actually met Leah in the hospital, jade closed the door of the machine an then turned to Kraig, her ponytail dancing all thw way, "what about Leah, isn't she a woman?" Kraig desperately wanted to roll his eyes, he knew what jade was playing at. She wanted him to admit that she was important, she wanted him
Sat behind the wheel, jade heaves a sigh out, waiting patiently for the princess that shebaa about to drive to therapy. She hates being in this position, having to drive Wynn around like she was some kind of fucking help, but in order to acquire something, one needed to give something out and just so it happens, this was what she was giving out. Her time and dignity. The backseat door opened and jade immediately spun her head around, "what's the meaning of this?" She asked glaring at no one else but Kraig who held the door open for Wynn. "What is it?" "What happened to the passenger seat? Am I a fucking chauffer?" She asked seemingly angry. Kraig rolled his eyes, "stop being such an unreasonable person and just drive her". "I can sit in front" Wynn saif with a low voice. In everything she did, she made sure there was a considerable amount of space between herself and Kraig. His perfume, his masculinity reminded her of atwo nights ago when she had been gravely assaulted. She h
It wasn't generally Fabio's faukt for suspecting anyone. The greatest drug lord was parading amongst them with no mask and they wete still unabke yo identity who the person was and this family and all it's acquaintances were in the middle of the whole drama. And knowning that the woman befire him just didn't kike him has thrown her into the suspect list. She opened the door without turning back, ans just walked in. Yhey were mey with Kraig and Margot who stopped whatever conversation they were having just to welcome the people that had arrived. Jade looked at the two of them but her eyes zeroed in on Margot. "Detective," Kraig approached Fabio wuth a handshake, "welcome". Fabio shook his hand. Jade felt kuje tgere was bo need for her to stabd there anymore and so she started ti walk away to her room. But then Kraig turned aroubd and caught her befire she could walk away. "Margot told me you threatened her" he said with his fingers wrapped around her wrist. "Why did you do that
Carolene's mouth was left hanging upon seeing the picture she just received. Her heart was thumping against her chest as if she just ran a marathon. Although she was extremely grateful for the picture, she couldn't fathom the reason why Jade would send her such a picture. Her knee was lifted high, a hand was on one of her boobs, pressing on it, exposing the flesh. The slit on the dress was so high it showed her inner thigh.With a click, the phone locked and was tossed away from Carolene."Fuck" she said as she gripped her hair.This was not the plan. This was not what she wanted.The way their relationship turned into this, this area where they don't know what it was that was existing between them, was actually too sudden. She didnt hate it the pace, it was the normal way she handled relationships in the past, but with his woman. She didn't want that. She was here, for a purpose, she had a mission, she was after something and this woman looked like she was going to be trouble.She
