Stitches

Chapter 19 'Just visiting'

Once again, a knock at the door, its 8 am in the goddamn morning. I went downstairs and opened the door. "My girlfriend was just murdered yesterday," Edward said walking through the entrance as soon as I opened the door. "Good morning, June, how'd you sleep, June, how's the baby, June, stuff like that, y'know?" I mumbled and closed the door.

"I can't trust anyone, anymore..." Edward said as he sat down on the couch. "I was hoping you could help me," he said. I sat down on the couch across him, "Me? Why do you think I could help?" I asked,
"You have connections to the most powerful people in Gotham, I know that you MUST know something about this, nothing gets past you," Edward said.
I smiled and said, "You flatter me."

I sighed and said, "Sadly, Ed, this is the first I've heard of this, if it was just some stranger that had killed her then yes, I would've heard about it, but this is someone who had the power to cover their tracks,"

"Power? What kind of power?" Edward asked, his eyes turning dark, he already had someone in mind.
"Ranks. They might've even been able to place a hit on her," I said, "Like a Victor Zsasz hit?" He asked. I shook my head and said, "No, Victor doesn't run his kills by me but if it were something like this? I would've known."

Edward sighed and ran his hands through his hair. "Maybe watch out who you're close with," I said, I gave him a serious look, hoping he would understand what Im trying to say.
His eyes widened and he gave me a soft nod, "Anyways, I've got things to prepare, you'll see yourself out," I said and went upstairs.

I organized the baby clothing inside the dresser in Orchid's room. Suddenly, something in the room changed...
"Escaped again?" I turned around and crossed my arms as Tetch leaned against the door frame.
"You know I couldn't pass up the chance to see you, my love," He said, I walked past him and headed towards my room. "Y'know, there's more ways than one to convince you," Tetch said, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Really, and what's that?" I asked sarcastically, he turned me around and kissed me, passionately. I didn't want to kiss him back but... I was weak, I was falling into Tetch's charms, if Jerome ever saw me he would kill him.
... But he's not here.

He reached for the edge of my nightgown, taking it off, "You're even more beautiful than I imagined," he whispered into my ear. He lied me down on the bed, carefully, trying not to hurt me or Orchid. Leaving a trail of kisses, he made his way down to my underwear, taking it off and throwing it to the side.

"You're so beautiful, I wonder... What makes you tick," He said, hovering over my clit. I gasped as he licked my folds, his tongue hitting every spot that I wanted. He stopped and took off his clothes, leaving his member exposed.
He lined himself up and pushed himself inside of me, "F-Fuck, yes, keep going," I moaned as he kept thrusting in and out, tangling his hands with mine.
I haven't felt this type of pleasure since Jerome died, I almost forgot the feeling of it.

He was good at following orders, going harder when I wanted him to. We changed positions a few more times until he came inside me. We lied next to each other on the bed, he wrapped his arm around me, pulling me close.
"So?" He asked, "You're getting there," I said and rested my head on his chest.
