A detective's quarrel
- LETTURE 131
- Voti 1
- Parti 2
A twenty-eight year old detective, who has already had plenty of success over the course of the seven years they have worked, has spent a large deal of time dealing with one specific criminal case. Some mention this to have turned into an obsession- from a pin board on the ceiling to desks covered in newspapers about him, it almost seems to be all they care about. Although this hasn't stopped them from investigating other cases, they keep their focus firmly set on this one. Once a breakthrough happens, they might be able to catch him. Will they succeed in doing so, or will they once again be reminded of his elusiveness?

In Your Custody
"But you're scared." He finished, running his fingers down her neck and to her collar bone, following the chain of her necklace, making her shiver, "So responsive." He murmured to himself. "Yes." She whispered, lips parted, eyes locked with his. She felt dirty for letting him be so close to her and touch her in a way that seemed so foreign and inappropriate- Yet exhilarating... "Maybe scared isn't the right word." His deep baritone voice rumbled, his fingers setting her skin on fire as he reached the opening of her top, the only thing dividing them, "Maybe, confused? Intimidated? But you're not scared of me, right, pet?" "I- I don't know." She answered, her heart pounding against her ribcage, making her shake nervously. "You're scared of this-" his hand lifted back up to circle around her throat and he applied slight pressure, but nowhere near enough to hinder her ability to breathe, "or this." He bent down so she could feel his hot breath skim across her cheek making her face flush. His rough lips, ran across the base of her jaw until he reached her ear, "But you're not scared of me." ~•~•~ 19-year-old Vera Reed is out on her own for the first time, leaving small town Tabor, Iowa for Lincoln, Nebraska to attend college at UNL in her old red Subaru.
