Kimora's POV

Jay dropped me off at my hotel and drove off. I walked through the doors and waited by the elevators.

"Miss Diamond."

I turned to see the front desk assistant, Mr. Min. He had a big smile on his face and something in his hand.

"A...A letter came in for you."

"Thank you."

I took the letter right when the elevator made it down. I turned and bumped into a man who was coming out in a hurry. I watched as he quickly walked out of the building. I stepped on and pushed the button for floor 8. After the short ride, I stepped off and walked over to my room, 815. Unlocking the door, I walked in and made sure to re-lock it once I was in. I sat the letter down on the table and walk into the bathroom to shower. I stripped out of my dirty clothes and hopped into the cool shower. Washing away the remainder of today, sweat, dirt, blood. I felt human again. I stepped out and wrapped a towel around me and walked out of the bathroom to the bedroom. I found my favorite shorts and a big t-shirt. After I got dressed, I wrapped the towel around my head to dry off my hair. Walking over to my kitchen, I grabbed a quick snack only to see that letter.

"Forgot about you."

Grabbing the letter, I sat on the edge of my bed and opened it. Inside was a letter.

' I bet your heart is heavy right now...'

Knowing where we going, yes.

'...But today was a very eventful evening. I love watching your expressions as you slowly break down. I'll keep them forever. Also, I don't like the way he cares for you. I can take care of you much better.'

I glance inside the letter to see pictures. One of me walking into the Station this morning. Another showing me with Min-ah's blood on my face from the crime scene just this afternoon. But the last one made my heart race even more. It showed went Jay made me blush. His fingers on my chin, holding me there as he told me that I was cute. In shock I dropped the picture, to see writing on the back.

'I don't like him. He's too close.'

That night, I cried myself to sleep

Killer's POV

I watched as Kimora cried inside that guy's car. I saw her laugh at something he said. I don't like how close they're getting. Then they drove off. I hopped into my car and drove back to the warehouse I was living in.

"I'm home ladies."

There sat three beautiful women, of course not as beautiful as my Kimora. I had them bound and tape over their mouths.

"What dinner isn't ready again."

I squatted down to one of them.

"I'll let it pass."

"Boss, I did what you asked. The cameras are all set."

"Thank you. Now please get some food for these women. I heard they were very good girls. I think they deserve something."

I pat the girl's head.

"How about some shoppin'?"

*The Next Day

I woke up with puffy eyes. I couldn't sleep knowing that Jay is also in danger. I got up and got dressed. When I walked back into my room, the pictures and note were still laying out. So I put them into a drawer and left. I arrived at the station early. I sat at my desk and just stared. I thought about the events that just happened, the notes, the pictures, the threats.

"Good morning Diamond."

I snapped out of my trance to see Jay standing at the door with two cups in hand. He walked over and sat on my desk to hand the cup over. Inside was my favorite morning beverage, tea.

"How did..."

"I'm a Detective. Plus I've never seen you get coffee so I assumed."

He smiled at me with made me giggle. Come on, Kim. You can't get to close. I looked up at Jay to see him let out a long yawn.

"Long night?"

"Last night there was another call."

"What! Why didn't I..."

"I told them not to call you. You've been through a lot. And I wanted you to take it easy last night. So you can get mad at me."

"Oh. Who was the victim?"

"A 26-year-old woman from Thailand. She was beaten pretty badly. Maybe the cause of her death. No stab wounds but a needle mark on her neck. I'm having Ji-Yong run test to find the drug and see if it matches the other victims."

He hands me a photo. She was dressed in a nice Dress Suit and shoes.

"I really hope we catch him soon."

"Same."

I followed him out.

"Gentlemen and Lady. Here's what we know so far. The killer is male, most likely in his late 30's, early 40's. We also know he is Caucasian. He has targeted four victims by now and probably more to come. The victims, two 26-year-olds, a 20-year-old and a 16-year-old. All Females. Mostly likely trying to tell us something and upset we're not figuring it out fast enough. He wants us to know what he is doing or show someone why he is doing this. It's like he's doing this for show and tell. He has a goal set in mind. Also, be on the lookout for these three men."

Jay posts three photos up, showing three men, probably in their 30's.

"They have been known to be right at the moment of the crime scenes. Onlookers were able to inform us that they have seen them. So again look out for them."

It's been two weeks since the fourth victim. Guessing we were getting really close so now they're trying to head low. The creep mail had stopped since then and I was able to breathe again.

"Diamond want to go out with my friends and me? It's been a while since I've been out and I think you need one too."

Jay held out my jacket.

"How did you know I was going to say yes?"

"Body language."

He winked.

"Ok Great Detective Oh."

I grabbed my jacket from him and we walked out of the building to his car.

"Ugh, I'm so excited for some Barbecue. It feels like it's been ages since I've eaten out with friends."

I laughed at his statement. Then his phone went off.

"Hey man... Oh okay... Well, I hope she'll get better... Yay... No, it's fine..... Take care of her. I'll see ya some other time..... Okay... Bye. Well, they're not coming. My buddy's wife got sick and he's going to take care of her. Guess you're stuck with me."

"I don't mind."

I smiled as we drove off.
