"Well, try to stay hidden as much as possible! You don't want to probably be seen which won't be good. Tell me everything you see, we need to see and understand what's going on. I will get reinforcement and everything needed. Don't worry," his voice sounded cracked through the phone.
"Reinforcement? I don't think you need that. I just expect to see... or just you and probably that silly Stone and some handful of guys will come here after my… I mean the person I followed is gone. You will come in after he is gone to inspect, you understand?" She said to him urgently to which some sort of noise was made in the background."And about what's going on? Not much, he is just searching for pieces of Leonard around, I think he is also searching for Leonard, u don't understand why but he is. With the magician slash seer with him, the energy is read, maned and tamed to the bare minimum. There isn't much going on though, just little searches and inspection around and withinWith a final glance at the weird mysterious hut, to her, which was still in full inspection under Lenon's charge. She edged away, moving backwards slowly and precise.As she moved, the underbrush crunched beneath her feet and hands which she used. A set of unintentional sounds were released, the looming figure stopped, his attention drawn to the disturbance. Stephanie's heart stopped before it started racing again, harder than before."He wasn't looking at me before? I thought he was coming towards me, shit! I should have remained dead in my spot," she cried within, with furrowed brows.The man, now fully aware of Stephanie's presence, quickened his steps towards her, navigating the trail towards her with unwavering familiarity.Stephanie, realizing that slowly moving, this movement she was making was futile, turned around, got on her feet, with determination, sprinted off.She took to her heel, not bothered if she would be noticed but tripped when she wasn't focused on where she was g
The bright morning sunlight penetrated it's ray through the large ceiling high curtains casting a warm glow on the staircase as Emily walked down with a slight wobble in her steps. With each step, her stomach rumbled increasingly emitting a loud growl but not loud enough to attract anyone, just the body owner. She anticipated whatever was prepared for breakfast and could wait to descend on it.Despite the dizziness lingering in her gaze, she knew what she wanted and was drove to get it at all cost. She slept well and doesn't get why she was still dizzy, it was still early in the morning tho so she had plenty of time to get the right amount of sleep needed.Peterson sat in one of the single armchair in the living room with his leg crossed, one on the other. He has his hands rested on the arm of the chair.His demeanor was that of stern expression, a visible wrinkle clothed his forehead. The large sitting area was adorned with gold ornaments and decors. His seat, Peterson, its edges was
Senior Inspector Felix Gallardo, a recent addition to the country's federal station , the police force, had a palpable air of determination.He does not buy the story that there was a mistake and Emily was just sleeping in her room. He won't take his new position with levity. He felt Peterson was trying to pull some strings to keep the police force away but he was determined to assert whatever happened yesterday.He had been the one to led his colleagues back to Peterson's villa, one has a sense of skepticism ingrained into his face. He stood in the little room before the main living room that was called lobby by Peterson and by now most of the occupant of the villa.Emily walking towards the room, felt a chill run down her spine. Her drowsy and hungry state momentarily forgotten, she moved closer to the men still in her mixed expression of curiosity and not concern anymore but fear of the unknown. She does feel at easy to be with that man, Felix.Immediately she entered the room, Fel
"Out this instant! I want you out now, no more questions! Out!" He yelled with so much anger and frustration."And what if I don't? Do you want to go against the government? I am simply doing my job here and you are just trying to stop me, can't you see that?" Felix said with a smirk on his face, he loved Peterson's reaction to every of his move and action. This was proof that Peterson was up to something or trying to hide something and he was here to prove that.As the tension grew increasingly, Emily's confusion deepened. The lobby, once a place of familiar warmth, now felt like an arena of conflicting interests and emotion. The morning sunlight shined through the windows, casting a surreal glow on the figures seated across and adjacent to the windows.Felix persistently continued, questioning Emily about the details of the night before."You can go further with your explanation?" He asked her with a direct glare.With the question before her, she couldn't bring herself to say anyth
Jack navigated the bustling streets, he drove through with strength echoing the quiet determination that fueled his mission. The sun hung high in the sky, casting intense shine on those in the street and through the windows of vehicles on the road. The journey to the Commissioner's office was a delicate one that needed a lot of attention. The commissioner's life was in his answer and reaction to whatever was being said.As Jack approached the magnificent structure that housed the Commissioner's office, he couldn't shake the sense of disappointment he felt within him. Like he knew he wasn't going to be satisfied with the outcome of this meeting.He parked the car roughly, getting a glare from one of the police men walking out of the building but because of the crest on his chest, they easily backed back. He entered the building and noticed the polished shining floors and quiet conversations within the corridors, the offices within the wall gave away the empty corridor and probably tell
Felix is still on the ground, catching his breath from the struggle with the men and being forcefully thrown to the ground. He seems to have bruised his hands, around his wrist and his leg. He lost a shoe in the process of struggling with Ryan and Sebastian, the two hefty men from earlier. They both stood beside Peterson, all of them sharing the same facial expression, a deep frown. His colleagues stood a few feet away from the whole chaos with Peterson and Felix.Felix glared back then but decided to be wise and chose to hold his tongue, keeping his mouth shut. The atmosphere carried the aftermath of the confrontation, a tension as they all exchanged dirty looks.Peterson with his unwavering expression and demeanor turned to leave the stubborn, strong headed officer."Hey!" Felix called out with a stretch forth hand. Peterson stopped for a while without looking back before continuing his journey."Hey, Peterson!" He yelled, lifting himself to see on his knee, his hand still in the sa
"Should I call Sarah to clean this up or maybe I should just wait and see what I can give out," she said to herself aloud before walking over the clothes, almost tripping."I doubt I will give anybody those, I am already complaining of no clothes and I still want to give ours, we shall see." She whispered to herself as if there was someone who might hear her.She combed her hair out, silk and long, and stood before a section mainly for head wear, where the likes of caps, hats, durag, scarfs and so on sat beautifully, staring at her. She ran her hand through them and picked a playful looking black bucket hat, chosen to complete the ensemble.Emily admired herself in the mirror, the reflection of a young woman ready to embrace the world and enjoy herself to the fullest. Her outfit, as she had imagined it, turned out to look like that, also conveying both comfort and a touch of rebellious spirit.Emily, having dressed up in her chosen outfit, felt a sigh escape her lips as she picked a p
"Of course, anything for you! Just point at it, or maybe talk, or just make a sound around it, you can even just tell me, or you don't want to talk or I am not getting it, cry and you will have it," he said to her which made Emily laugh heartily."This is definitely a spoil you treat," she said, still laughing as her and her grandfather crossed arms and walked out of the house."Of course, anything for you! You deserve it… and more!" He simply said to her.The city beyond the villa's gates embraced them with its bustling energy as they stepped out into the city's embrace, the streets and roads were at its busiest."Oh, that remains me! There is this cafe I would like you to try more than anything. I was there last week and I promised myself to take you with me next time. I think this is the next time," he said with a hearty chuckle."Really? Sure! I will love that!" She replied immediately, matching his tone and mood."But we will have to walk a little distance there, the car can't go
