This is edited Chapter 1.
Natalia was still sleeping when her alarm clock radio turned on.
"-Sam Townsend was realsed from police holding for burglary charges." The radio announced through static and Natalia bolted up in bed adding volume.
Sam? Her brother-in-law Sam? She thought staring at the radio for more information. She hadn't seen him in a while but he hated her after Nick was killed.
Natalia was getting up when she heard that he was in Miami. But he didn't know where she lived. So she thought she was safe enough.
Natalia got up peacefully putting Sam away, got dressed and headed down into the kitchen where her cat, Ben was quietly sunning himself on a windowsill. The sound of a Friskas can being opened "awaked" him.
He was a mere tabby but many people called him a "mock savannah" but Natalia didn't like that name. She watched him eat while she made herself a simple breakfast. Finishing her fast breakfast, Natalia headed out the door, keys in hand. Stepping out the door she was pounced on.
Okay, okay, that was quick.
