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.
