One weeks later

Murdoch had studied the letter vigorously since he had received it, however apart from the simple clues of the sea he still had no idea where James Gilles was hiding. So instead of spending the evening slumped at his desk chair reading over the letter again, Murdoch decided to have dinner with Julia. He apologized for his odd behaviour and decided to forget it ever happened. Julia chatted admittedly about her new position working at the mental institute Murdoch had to admit despite his tired eyes and aching head he did seem fascinated by the patients who were staying at the hospital.

Murdoch couldn't help but wonder if this would have been his life if it wasn't for Gillies, Murdoch was still confused how he could be attracted to a man as he gazed across the gentlemen eating their dinner at The Savoy. Murdoch agreed some of the men were attractive enough but he wasn't sexual attracted to them, it seemed to be only Gillies.

"How is everything here?" the young waiter greeted the couple with a smile, no doubt the same patient smile he had been showing all night.

"Everything is fine thank you, perhaps some more wine?" Julia requested

The waiter nodded and walked away, Murdoch eyed the waited noticing a faint smell he had not smelt since he was a child and then it clicked

"Would you excuse me Julia?"

"Of course" she smiled while sipping on the last drops of the wine

Murdoch turned the corner to fin the waiter along the deserted corridor grabbing the wine, Murdoch quickly rushed to him and pinned him to the wall "Where is Gillies"

The man simply smirked "he said you were smart" Gone was the kind and endearing tone, now the man's voice was deeper and menacing "I'm sure he'll be interested to know who you're having dinner with when I see him" Murdoch stiffened "o come on Mr Murdoch did you really think you were his only one" the man laughed and Murdoch brought back his fist and punched him in the jaw. Ignoring the slight sting to his knuckles Murdoch grabbed the man again and pulled him upright

"Where is he?"

The man just sneered

"Having fun dear brother"

Mina took in the scene before her, the anger practically rolling from William as she eyed him carefully. It was usually her who held the victims throats while William calmly talked to her so imagine her surprise to find her usually cool headed brother gripping a man looking like he wanted to kill him. Her last conversation with her brother had been by a letter since his visit, he had wrote down Gillies letter word for word and she smiled as she realised where he was.

"I have good news for you, so instead of having your first murder be a dead weight why don't you and I go away from here"

William looked between his sister and the man before deciding to calm down and push the man to the ground "I suggest you leave Toronto"

The man simply glared at William, staying on the ground, while Murdoch walked to his sister "What good news"

Mina simply smiled "I know where he is"

--

The house itself was impressive as William stood near the ocean. His sister beside him stroking his arm

"Go ahead"

Murdoch wiped his sweaty palms against his pants before walking up towards the house; he turned to see his sister waiting by the car but held out his hand as a sign for her to come with him. Mina smiled brightly and practically charged at the house, a laughing William following her. Just as the pair reached the steps to the large home the front door opened and William caught his breath as Gilles smiled at him
