Boudoir Secrets

Chapter 87

Detective Harrison had called an emergency meeting and now stood in front of a group of police officers and other detectives, yelling in frustration.

"How do you lose a large, black van? You are in speed cars and this monster has vanished!! Someone please tell me how this happened?"

Various officers doodled on their pieces of paper, others looked about the room, a couple yawned and scratched. All this made him even angrier. He lent over his desk and grabbed a yawning policeman, yanking him out of his chair.

"Are we keeping you awake, officer?"

The young cop shook his head and straightened himself out before taking his seat once more. Some of his peers sniggered as discreetly as they could, hoping that they weren't pulled up next.

"Excuse me? Can we go now?"

He looked about the room for the person who had spoken and saw a female police officer he had spoken to only hours earlier. Her partner had mysteriously disappeared and they feared that she was a victim as she was on the case.

"Go! All of you! Get out! Go find me this deranged individual. Alive! ... I want to hurt him."

Everyone edged out of the room as quickly as possibly, afraid of causing the Senior Detective to create a scene. He was oblivious, however, as he stared at the board with the pictures of the missing women. The anger that was driving his adrenaline would not dissipate and he needed to find this man quickly. Apparently the women were alive in the van and he was not sure how much longer this would be the case. He paused at the picture of Tara and laid a finger on it, vowing, "I will find you. I promise."
