It was at dusk when Mary Hale's naked body was discovered in an alleyway two days after she had been reported missing by her parents. Her body was perfectly fine she had no bruise on her body but was very dead.

"Put the yellow tape and call the forensic here!"  Homicide detective John Smith yelled as he knelt next to the poor girl's lifeless body

A cop immediately began to wrap a tape around the crime scene as other cops struggled to get the crowd away from the scene. A slim blonde came under the tape carrying a metal blue briefcase with a  purple cross on it. "Doctor Sanchez" John said as he stood up to shake her hand

"Detective Smith" she said shaking his hand "what do we have here?" she asked looking down at Mary's body

"Well the body was found by a homeless woman  at 04:00 am and immediately reported" he said and scratched his chin which was rich with a brown beard " there is not much to tell because there are no bruises or and marks on the body" he added and looked back at Sanchez

" okay bring the body over to the station morgue and ill see what I can find" she said about to walk away. John held her hand and she turned to look at him

"Could it be?" John asked looking very worried

"No he first tortured people she is free of any bruises so worry not" she replied and walked away.

John stood there staring at the body for a while, he was like someone in deep thought about something that worried him when his phone rang he flinched

"John speaking" he answered

"Get  to West ridge immediately" a female voice said

"Yes captain" he replied and hung up. He walked to his blue BMW which he had had for three years now. John was a Scottish man of average height and had brown reddish hair. He usually wore golf t-shirts which were tight due to his extremely muscular body and he also wore black denim jeans and nike sneakers. He got into his car and drove off in the direction of the highway. He took out his phone from his pocket ,dialed a number then put the phone to his ear

"John where are you?" the Captain's voice came through the phone

"I'm almost there whats going on?" he asked

"Another body  a girl same age as the one you found " answered the Captain

"Could it"

" No not at all this one has a lit of bruises shows signs of struggle, get over here quick" she said and hung up.

John sped up and arrived five minutes after the call.

"So what do you make of it?" he asked looking at the Captain who was a chubby but very beautiful African American brunette. She wore a black trouser and black heels. At the top she wore a white blouse with a silver thin necklace

"I don't know you are the homicide detective, I just stumbled upon this as I was grabbing a bite at that small trailer" she replied smiling. John looked at her and smiled

"not during working hours Johnny" she added trying to be serious but failing

"Come on Carol no one is watching" he said and moved closer to her . She stood there looking directly at him as he got even closer then passed her and went to where the body was laughing

"I hate it when you do that" she said smiling ,turning and going to where he was. Carol Summers and John Smith had been engaged for about a year now. They had begun dating a few years after John lost his family in a very unfortunate event which had occurred in his first days as a cop.He had lost two teenage daughters and his wife.u The loss had destroyed him causing him to shut everyone out for a very long time but Carol had not given up on him so she kept on comforting him until he finally opened up to her. She helped him through his dark times and came to love him but tried by all means not to show it until one night when she herself in bed with him. Since then they got closer until last year when they got engaged.
