In Every Bird.

Chapter 11: Monster Among Us

It's a picture of a woman who has a ball gag in her mouth and her nipples have clips on them.
Her wrists and ankles are tied up and then tied together so she's side ways and she's visibly crying and distressed.

What kind of kink is this, I think.

I start to scroll back to March 2022 to see what snaps are next to this memory, but I don't get far. When I get to Halloween and see another girl.
She's turned on her face, marks all over her back and a bite mark on her ass.
Only weird thing is, she looks to be on asphalt.
I slide to the next snap and it's Graham gripping the girls face firmly.
"Oh my God." Trembles out of my mouth.
It's Annie Watkins.
The girl who was raped the night Tristan tried to take advantage of me. We thought he did it after failing with me but, no.

I scroll down as fast as I can.
I don't believe this.
I scroll all the way back to 2018.
I was trying to get to 2014, but there's no need.
I see her.
I click on the photo and I could've thrown up right then and there.
It's a picture of a picture that was taken of a camera.
It's Melissa, naked, bruised, bound.
I slide to the next one in fear and then close the phone quickly.
I didn't need to see it more than a split second to know it was Shanley, also unclothed.

"No." I breathe out and tears fill my eyes.

I start to shake.
Then I set the phone on the desk again before going over to my desk and grabbing my phone.
I go to text Cole then stop.
No. I can't text him.
So I close out of our messages and go to Emily and I's.

"Emily." I text and then Graham walks in the room.
I jump and look up quickly.

"Sorry." He apologizes and sets the food down on his desk.
God please don't see his phone is moved.

He starts to get the boxes out of the bag and sets mine on my desk.
"You're gonna love this." He says then walks back to his desk to get his food.
I pretend to mess with my box but I'm watching him.

What do I do?
Do I leave?
Stay?
Text Emily to call the cops and send them here?

I watch Graham and I see his eyes look at his phone.
Fuck...
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

I'm shaking so much I drop my chop sticks.
Graham looks over at me and I fake laugh and lean down to get them.

"Five second rule." I say and my voice is shaky.

"Firm believer of it." He says.
I'm frozen in fear, I can't move anymore.

Graham then looks back at his phone and I see him swipe his phone open.
His face changes and he stands up straight.
He then turns his phone off and looks at me.
I look at him back, trying to stay strong.

"Olivia." He says.
A coldness runs over my body.

"Yes?" I say back.

"Did you look through my phone?" He asks.

"No sir I did not." I lie.
He starts to step toward me.

"Why did you do that?" He asks.

"I didn't, I promise." I lie again.

"Stand up." He demands, now just one desk ahead of me.
I slowly get up, visibly shaking.
"I didn't hurt my girls." He says and I shake my head yes quickly.
"Those are crime seen photos I have as evidence." He explains.
