Martinez nodded. "Agreed. And Tom, we need you to stay on this case. You have a personal stake in it now, and your insights could be invaluable."Tom sighed, but he knew the detective was right. He couldn't let his fear hold him back. "Okay, I'll stay on the case."As they left the crime scene, Tom couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to the werewolf than they realized. He needed to find out what it was, before it was too late. Over the next few days, Tom threw himself into the investigation, working long hours and poring over files and evidence. Jane helped whenever she could, but she had her own job and responsibilities to attend to.Despite their efforts, however, they were no closer to identifying the werewolf. They had found no connections between the victims, and no witnesses had come forward with any useful information.Tom was getting frustrated, feeling like they were hitting a dead end. He needed a break, a fresh perspective.He decided to pay a visit to the loca

"Who are you?" Rachael asked Emily who was pretty shocked to see a lady opening their door. Racheal looks oddly familiar but she is still a stranger."Who are you?" Emily asked back and Racheal was very much speechless at the bold expression on Emily's face. Racheal anger turned to shut the door when Emily pushed her away."Where does this rude lady come from?" Emily asked aloud as she walked right inside and met her father and Martinez sitting in front of a load of files."Darling Emily, how are you?" Martinez said and walked to hug Emily, even with the short warm hug, Emily's expression didn't change from anger."Please, no one has answered what this rude lady is doing in my house!" Emily said, pointing at Racheal.Tom had no choice but to stand up and address the issue."Emily, I am sorry, I didn't inform you earlier, due to the curfew, we decided to have a research sleep over and these are my colleagues who are involved"Tom said and Emily didn't respond, she only stared at him si

"Well, we met at the hospital cafe and a few times at the coffee shop. I think you know there!, Maria's shop!" Lisa said and kept eating."If you ask me, I will say, she is quite loveable. She is also easy to deal with! Well I love her and I didn't realize you were family earlier!" Lid concluded and picked up the file."Belly is filled, let's get to work!" Lisa said without giving the lost Tom and Martinez breathing space."Okay, what do we have at hand?" Lisa asked and they all switched to the workaholic mood."I have the pictures of all you say!" Racheal answered Tom when he demanded the pictures she had taken over time. "Sheriff, have you noticed?" Lisa asked and Tom looked up with a confused questioning gaze."What's that?" He asked and everyone's eyes were on Lisa."The girls involved have a common feature, all have reported to the hospital before!" Lisa pointed out and Tom was surprised."Elaborate, miss Lisa!" Tom said as he found a new sheet and started joting it down."I onc

You both should calm down! I think we had enough for today already! The investigation should be continued next time and till then we should all find a way to deal with what our temper might be.I don't want to have a group of ladies who all they do is flaunt their level and class with pride lifted on their shoulders and not find out what the real problem is and Rachel, you are a grown woman. I won't want to have any issues with you now or never.This gathering is of people I trust and I believe can help me step up my game and conquer the situation at hand but if you don't want to do that, you are welcomed to leave this place right now!" Tom said.Rachel looked around and she felt guilty. "I am so sorry, I am sorry that I was out of hand earlier. It was just my mood but I will keep in check now and I follow all you have to say. Well, I don't take the pictures myself. My assistant does and he only delivers them to me when needed. I will just give a call through to him to get me the d

"I can be more zealous than that, don't try me!" Racheal said and Martinez laughed. " Of course you can be more zealous but you have refused to be," Martinez said and looked straight into her eyes." Lisa is here to work not to fight with you on who is more professional, she is hit by all the encounters of this town and she isn't here for you, she is here for the land.I don't know what your insecurities are but you know them. Fix them before you get fixed and guess how you will be fixed. Out of this place!" Martinez said and Racheal looked away.She could not handle looking into Martinez's eyes. It was like Martinez was doing a soul search for her or trying to read her.They were still in their own world when Lisa shouted." Yes!" Lisa said and they all turned toward her. "What is it?" Martinez asked and Lisa turned toward them and laughed. "I did try my best and everything is now down here.I have listed all that I think is related to the topic. All necessary now is that we should g

Rachel herself was shocked to see Tom was very serious with her idea. "Well, I think we should find this lady and speak to her. Give her a secret bodyguard and make sure a recording tape and tracker is on her every single time.This way we will monitor her and be on the stop, ready to strike anytime we see there is something absurd. She walks around freely like we know nothing and she is out their to be a bait and bring those people to book. So it now or never!" Racheal said and Martinez nodded."First, we have to find who that person is? So what is the motive now, finding the person?" Martinez asked and Luna nodded. "I am a step into that already, I did a search on the internet which I think any lady in that range should be found but the result is still loading! It doesn't take this much time but I think it's the network!" Racheal said."That's great, I love this kind of progress amidst us. Well, since we are on the matter of finding who this Alice A. McCoy is! The name sounds odd

What!Lisa and Rachel looked at each other and wondered if the two officers knew what they were talking about! Rest!When the city is on fire?Is Martinez really serious about what she is saying? How will they possibly rest well when they are not sure of what is going on here? "Did you just say we should rest just like that?" Racheal asked and Martinez nodded."We have some clues, that's okay, we are to be a little calm. Investigation sometimes can be tricky. We might have been thinking in the wrong direction and if we do that, we will be doomed before we even start, so look at me and calm down. It's all okay, I want you both to have something in mind, everything will be just fine."Martinez said and the ladies sighed and they all started packing up their mess. "I thought we would be working all night! Non-stop searching and talking!" Racheal said and Tom chuckled."I don't believe in stressing the brain too much, the few hours we spent together is okay, it's better that way. Resti

The tones were different as the words of Tom were of disbelief and that of Lisa was surprised and someone blush. Racheal was shocked to see the two were still acting like teenagers around each other.Racheal looked at Martinez and also saw the struggle of the young woman to match the two together.It wasn't an easy one but it would be easy if the two were really serious with each other.One is a single father with a daughter who has an attitude while the other party is a single lady who is a nurse and hardly has time for herself. "So will you two pick a time and meet up at the beach, trust me, the beach is better enjoyed in two than with a single eye! You will find it more interesting if you have company while you walk around the beach." Racheal said and the two laughed."ohh, hold on, why do I feel Racheal is talking out of experience! She must have quite a whole lot of experience to give us this sort of information, so tell me!What a juicy gist! Spill it" Lisa said and Racheal wa

Tom paced nervously in his living room, his mind racing with thoughts of the impending danger that lurked in their quiet town. He had invited his closest friends over for a discussion, hoping to devise a plan to protect their community from the bloodthirsty werewolves that ravaged the town every full moon. As the murmur of conversation filled the room, Tom took a deep breath and addressed his friends."Thank you all for gathering here today," Tom began, his voice laden with a mix of urgency and determination. "I have been doing some research, and it seems that using mountain ash on the doorsteps of every building in town could potentially stop the werewolves from causing harm during the full moon."Martinez, one of Tom's trusted advisor, leaned forward, her gaze focused intently on Tom. "Mountain ash, huh? That's an intriguing idea. Considering its folklore, it just might work. I would say it's a long shot, but it's worth it. You know we've only heard that mountain ash stops werewolve

The full moon hung high in the night sky as the members of Marcus's pack gathered in their secret meeting spot deep within the woods. The air crackled with anticipation as they awaited the arrival of their alpha, Marcus. He was a tall, broad-shouldered werewolf with a commanding presence, and the respect of his pack was evident in their eager expressions.Marcus finally came out of the shadows, out from one of his rooms, he scanned through the whole room, staring deep into eyes of his pack members. There was tension in the air and it was very obvious, everyone was concerned by what Marcus was about to say. They had thought by now Marcus would have addressed the Emily's behavioural issue at the last meeting and maybe today was the day."You all wonder why I called this meeting, right? We have a serious case on our hands. People who we thought of as less threats have been making moves. And it's not something we can overlook." Marcus said, his voice almost like he was afraid of somethin

When Tom was done closing up, he and Martinez both shut down the office and left for Tom's house. Together, they took in the stroll of the town as they walked home. Their movements, side by side and slowly, almost like they were staggering.They were getting close to Tom's place and just a few houses away. Tom took his phone out of his pocket and dialed Lisa's number while he blushed, unintentionally.Martinez tries looking at Tom's phone to see who he was trying to call, but Tom wouldn't let her. "You know I don't need to look at your phone to know who you're calling, right?" Martinez said."And who might that be?" Tom asked."I know it's Lisa you're calling, silly." Martinez said."You really think you know a

The mere thought of such a plan filled Hank with a renewed sense of purpose and hope. Finally, he could make a difference, protect his interest, and prove to Marcus, the alpha of the pack, that he was more than just a liability.Taking long strides, Hank reached Marcus's place, the overwhelming mansion nestled among tall pines. His knuckles turned white as he clenched his fists, anticipation mixing with frustration. He wanted to confront Marcus, demand answers to why his pack had become so reckless, and maybe even convince him to put an end to the bloodshed.As he swung the cabin door open, Hank's eyes met Marcus's smirking face. "You!" he spat, anger bubbling beneath his words. "How could you let this happen, Marcus? People know now. They know that werewolves are responsible for the attacks."Marcus's laughter cut thr

Concern was etched across her face as she gently placed a hand on Lisa's arm. "Lisa, are you okay? We were worried about you after the way you left work yesterday. Did you find Emily? Is she safe?" Sarah asked, her voice showing a sign of worry.Lisa kept smiling as she spoke with Sarah. "Yes, of course. We found Emily and she was safe and still is. I kinda had a good morning with she and her father this morning."Sarah was relieved to hear it, as she sighed deeply. "That's grea
