Terrible Beautiful Romance

4} Angel Dust

"We have new information on an ongoing case." Detective Lucian Greymark started. "Our street informants say that the surge in two new drugs and a rise in an already established one is due to The Clan mafia. The two new ones are called Vamp Venom and Angel Blood, if you weren't already aware the established one is Angel Dust. These extremely powerful drugs have been found in all of the major clubs in the city."

"New information says that the key to catching the leader of the mafia is through a woman they call the Winter Flower, also known as the Invincible Flower. No one can tell us her real name, but they call her that because no one can escape the wrath of the kingpin if they wrong her, making the woman Invincible. She is said to be the most important person to the kingpin, and if we get her we get him." Lucian continued. "I've brought special units Narcotics Detective Maia in to assist us with this case."

"She's one person, why don't just detain her force her admit to being associated with the Clan? That way we have a witness and proof that the Clan exists." One of Lucian's officers offered.

"That would be a fantastic idea if we knew what she looked like. This woman is much like the kingpin himself, a ghost. No one is allowed to photograph her, and those who've seen her or have photographs of her are too afraid of the kingpin to let us see them. Or they're dead." Maia replied.

"So we're looking for a ghost woman who's connected to a ghost kingpin of a rumored mafia. Meaning there is no evidence of any of this stuff that we could use in court to put these people behind bars. This is fantastic.

"Hello, I'm Maia. Winter Rose will be much harder to find and detain than you could think. She has a minimum of 5 bodyguards in her surrounding at a time. Other than street talk, theres no way to connect her to The Clan, or that even The Clan exists." Maia told Lucian's officers." Underhill said, rolling his eyes.

"Even if we were to know who she was itd be nearly impossible to get to her. She always has at least 5 bodyguards surrounding her at all times and if she's anything like the kingpin then she's probably armed." Maia told them.

"So how do we go about finding her?" Underhill asked.

"We go to the clubs with the highest drug traffic and try to spot the woman that people are most afraid of." Maia told them.

"Where and when do we start?" Lucian asked.

"The Pandemonium, tonight. "

"Why am do I have to go with you?" Underhill complained to Maia.

"Luke is too known around here, and you have a very generic face. There's nothing that particularly makes you stand out, meaning you're good for inconspicuous situations." Maia replied, scanning the room.

"Wow, thanks." Underhill answered sarcastically.

"You're welcome, now help me look for her."

"Check that chick, dude with her looks powerful enough to investigate. I think I'll do it." Maia stopped Underhill before he could go mess up majorly with the possible connection to the Clan.

"You watch, I'll talk." Maia instructed and walked off towards the woman.

Maia couldn't even blame Underhill for wanting to talk to her, the women was stunning. Candy apple colored lipstick over her lips, wearing matching dress and heels.

"Hey, I saw you from over there and I wanted to say that you are stunning. That dress does you justice." Maia said, looking appreciatively at the other women.

"Thanks babe, you look gorgeous yourself. How about I buy you a drink. We can put it on my brother's tab." The other woman said.

"I think I'll take you up on that, I'm Maia." The officer said, holding out her hand.

"I'm Rosa." And Rosa pulled Maia in for a hug and kissed her cheek. "What do you drink?"

"I'll take whatever you're having. Maybe have them put a little something extra in it." Maia replied, remembering that she's supposed to be working.

"Something extra, like what?" Ross said, a teasing smile on her face.

"You know, the good stuff. People said I could find it down here. The strong stuff, you know. Maia replied, hoping it wouldn't set Rosa off.

"Yeah, I think I have just the thing. I'll be right back." Maia nodded and watched as Rosa got the drinks.

Underhill

Me: she's know about the drugs, but she doesn't seem to know anything about anyone important

Underhill: you just think that
cuz she's hot

Maia turned her phone off when Ross returned with her drink.

"I didn't know how much you wanted,  so I only gave you a little bit but here's a pack if you want more." Rosa said, handing her a packet of white powder, that looked a lot like sugar.

The two women clinked glasses and Maia knew immediately it was not sugar. But it was sweet, kinda like Rosa.

The Rosa that she drank with. The Rosa that she danced with. The Rosa that she kissed. The Rosa that took her home. And the Rosa that she woke up beside the next morning.

The Rosa that put an extra pack of Angel Dust in her jacket when she left for work.

"Narcotics directed Maia has successfully confirmed that the drug Angel Dust is in fact circulating in The Pandemonium." Luke said, addressing his officers.

"Where does that leave us? Didn't we already know this?" One of the officers asked.

"Of course we knew this, everyone does. But common knowledge is not the same a judicial proof. We can know this all day but without proof it's useless in court. We are building a case. So we have to get proof of every detail." Maia replied.

"So what is our move from whoever you got it from? Are we bringing her in?" Underhill asked.

"No, we aren't bringing her in. We have to keep her where she's of use to us, in the club. We can start tracing back where she gets it from, and where her dealer gets it from. All the way back until we get to the kingpin." Maia replied.

"So what's our next move,  Detective Maia?" Luke asked.
