She’s the key to unfolding all of this.

Suddenly, my phone buzzes, and I pull it out of my pocket, fully expecting the station to ask me to return to the office because of a newly found lead, or better, someone coming forward.

But all the hairs on the back of my neck stand up the moment I see the word.

Unknown.

And my dick instantly throbs.

Fuck.

Unknown: Hello, Detective Foley. Remember our previous engagement?

Engagement?Engagement?!

Me: What do you want, woman?

Unknown: No need to bite, doggy. Especially not the hand that feeds you.

I immediately glancearound my house, my free hand resting on the gun I’m still carrying. If she’s here, I must be prepared to take her down before she gets her hands on me again.

Unknown: Tell me, when you think of me, does your dick get hard?

Me: Come face me, and you can find out.

Unknown: I’d bet you’d like that …

Grinding my teeth,I furiously type back.

Me: Stop these games.

Unknown: Why? They’re so much fun.

Me: Coward.

Unknown: I’ll give you the information you’re so desperate for.

I sit up straight.

Me: Send it then.

Unknown: Oh no, it’s not for free. You have to come and find it.

I roll my eyes.Always that duplicity.

Me: Tell me where.

She texts me an address,and I stare at it for a moment, then look it up on the map app. That’s a children’s playground.

What the …?

Me: Do you have more info?

Unknown: That’s it. Good luck on your scavenger hunt, Officer Foley!

My eyes narrow.Something about this smells awfully fishy. But I need to know what she’s up to, so I tuck my phone into my pocket and get up to swiftly clean up the mess I made with the wineglass before heading out.

Time for a rendezvous.
