"He stole her youth and promised heaven."

THE ONLY SOUND COMING FROM THE LIBRARY FOR THE PAST  HOUR HAD BEEN THE SCRIBBLE OF A PEN. Vienna had been hard at work on the most recent case assigned to her, Lia, and Michael. After Sloane had finished her work with Briggs, she had begun assisting them on the case as well.

Vienna couldn't help but worry for little Devon Walters. His father was a serial killer, she had no idea as to where he may be, or what the boy's father's motives were.

She still wasn't even sure if it was Drew Walters behind the gruesome murders, but she was pretty sure.

It had been only two days since they had started the case, and finding out  that Drew Walters had a son was the biggest lead they had.

Had, that was the key word. They actually were not so sure if this boy was still alive or not.

Vienna had brought these up to Briggs, but she was very upset when he had said that these were not great enough clues to jump to a conclusion that Walters was a murderer due to the fact that a man with a fiancé having an affair with a woman wasn't the most uncommon thing in the world.

Sloane, the best tech-sleuth that Vienna knew, was able to figure out that Drew Walters had a connection to every single woman that was murdered. She was able to trace the abortion of Brooke Walsh's baby to the hospital that Drew Walters had worked at. The abortion was done on March 5th, and Brooke was killed three days later on March 8th.

"That's all I can find on the abortion. I hope that's enough to go off of for now." Sloane says.

"Sloane, thank God for you." Vienna pulls Sloane into a side hug.

Sloane's lips crinkle into a small smile of appreciation for Vienna's affections. "I can see if I can find anything on the others if you guys need."

"That would be great." Michael speaks. "Sloane, you are our lifeline."

Sloane's smile widens as Lia nods in agreement as well. It was a well known fact that every single one of the Naturals have a special soft spot for Sloane.

Sloane began typing in her laptop, and it was seemingly within seconds that she began speaking again. "I found Shelia, Drew Walters' wife's medical records. I thought maybe she was infertile and that's why Drew went killing these women, but she's not infertile."

"She was 25. Maybe she wanted to wait until she was older to have a kid. Or maybe she didn't want one of her own." Michael says.

"If we're going with the theory that she wanted to wait, he was 15 years older than her. He hasn't got all the time  in the world to wait for her to have kids."
