Thank you everyone for reviews and comments. I am a bit worried for this chapter. I am trying to show the progress of the case and what is happening with Morgan and Reid at the same time. Hope I didn't mess it up. Enjoy the next chapter.

Chapter 6

"One wrong move, and your lover will have a bullet hole in his skull."

Those horrible words bashed Morgan straight in his heart and the sight of Reid's head hanging unconsciously sucked the very oxygen out of his body. His feet were stuffed at the same spot.

"So nice of you to join us."

Morgan could see a man sitting behind Reid although most of his figure was hidden by Reid's body. He was sitting on another chair while holding the tip of his gun on Reid's neck.

"Did Morgan just say that Reid is drunk?" Rossi asked, slightly laughing.

"I have a feeling that Morgan is corrupting Reid." Emily continued.

"Can we focus on the case now?" Hotch asked.

-CM-CM-CM-

"Get down on your knees and hands on your head ... now!" The man ordered.

"Okay… okay." Morgan said, slightly getting down on his knees. "Just don't hurt him."

"That depends on you." The man growled. "On your knees NOW!" The man hissed as he pulled Reid's head up using his hair.

"Garcia, any luck?" Hotch asked.

"I still running through, give me a second." Garcia said.

"This totally doesn't make any sense." JJ mumbled.

"Why?" Emily questioned.

"I remember talking to Paul's neighbor, Lauren. She never mentioned anything about anyone watching over Paul's house." JJ added.

"Yeah…" Emily agreed, remembering their conversation with Lauren. " Can we get through Paul? Where is this guy actually?"

"In Bali, Indonesia." Garcia said as her fingers were dancing on her keyboard.

"I am going to talk to Lauren again and see," JJ said as she searched for Lauren's telephone number from the file. "Hello, can I speak to Lauren?" JJ spoke as she walked out of the room.

"Okay, from what we got here." Rossi spoke as he glanced through the files. "Paul has been going in and out the neighborhood for the past one year. What is he exactly doing in Bali, Garcia?"

Garcia moved to another laptop. "He owns an art gallery there. It was just opened three months ago."

Just when Hotch was about to speak again after some moments of silence, JJ stormed in "So, I talked to Lauren."

"What did she say?" Hotch asked.

"She reconfirmed the information that we have. Paul has been going in and out for the past one year, but this it is the first time he has been away for such long time." JJ took a break as she went and sat on a chair available. "She has never seen anyone watching over his house before this."

"Have Paul by any chance told her anything about who is watching over his house?"

"Well, this is where everything gets weird." JJ said.

"Why?" Rossi inquired.

"Lauren said that Paul is not that close to any of the neighbors, even to her but he does tell her every time he goes out of the town. He also asks her to just keep an eye on his house. Since, this first time, he was away for such as long time, when she saw a person in Paul's house, she just thought maybe he was one of his friends, watching the house for him." JJ updated.

"What makes her to speculate in such way?" Emily questioned.

"Because she saw him cleaning the house, doing all the things a person would do if they are watching over a person's house," JJ replied.

"Do we have a name?" Hotch asked.

"Nope, she tried talking to him but it never worked. Do you know what is bugging me?"

"What?" Rossi inquired.

"Lauren said that when Paul was leaving the house three months ago, he still asked Lauren to keep an eye on his house as usual. If he already has someone to watch over his house, why would he ask his neighbor to do the same thing? Wouldn't he tell her that, it's okay, I already have someone else to watch over my house this time" JJ said while massaging her temple.

"So, if Paul doesn't know anything about this, but how did he get Paul's house key?" Emily asked.

"Lauren also told me that she only saw him a few times in these three months but she can't remember if it was the same as the time the murders took place."

"I got it!" Garcia yelled, turning her chair to face the team.

"What is it, Garcia?" Hotch asked.

"Just tell us what do you want, man?" Morgan asked, being on his knees with his hands on his head.

"What's the rush, man?" the Unsub replied back. "Oh, look… We don't even have a basic introduction yet." He stood up, facing straight at Morgan. "My name is…"

"Michael Brown." Garcia stated.

"What about him?" Rossi inquired.

"He is one of Paul's friends, lives just 8.9 miles from the neighborhood. The interesting fact about him is, his wife was reported missing two months after their marriage and is still missing. They have been in a relationship for five years before they were married."

"Do we have a reason why?" JJ asked for the first time.

'No, it is stated here that he couldn't find her after he returned from two weeks outstation." Garcia informed. "He has to be the Unsub, I mean his story is consistent with other couple's history. Being a relationship for five years and married for two months."

"If he is the one who has been killing all these couples, why? He lost his love and he doesn't want anyone else to have it?" Emily inquired.

"No, there must be something else. To have such an anger in him that enforce him to kill… Something else must have happened…" Hotch whispered.

"What do we do now?" Emily asked.

"We need to talk to Paul." Hotch ordered.

"I can't get him." Garcia said as she dialed Paul's number again and again.

"We can't do anything now." Hotch said as he glanced at his watch. "Get some rest. None of us barely sleep for the past two days. We will deal with this first thing tomorrow morning."

"So, let's play a game, shall we?" The Unsub whispered. "Since we have a long night ahead of us." The Unsub pushed Reid out of the chair, causing him to collapse on the floor.

A painful moan escaped from Reid's mouth. His eyes fluttered open and his blurred vision was greeted by Morgan, standing on his knees.

The Unsub gripped Reid's collar and dragged him nearer to Morgan but stayed within Morgan's unreachable spot.

"What the hell do you want?" Morgan yelled, feeling frustrated over the situation.

"Let's have some ice breaking session, shall we?" The Unsub said again, before he sat on the floor beside Reid, taking Reid's head on his lap.

"I am going to ask some questions and you better answer correctly because if not, your beloved husband here, is going to pay for it, okay?" The Unsub said, before he held the tip of the gun directly to Reid's temple.

Reid struggled helplessly against the rope that bound his hands together.

"First question, what is your name?" The Unsub asked.

Morgan was taken aback by the first question. He honestly has no idea on what was going on. Without wasting any second, he answered. 'Derek Morgan."

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes… that is my name." Derek confirmed again.

"I told you not to lie, and there is a penalty each time you lie." The Unsub said before he took a knife using his other hand and stab it straight through Reid's shoulder.

Reid screamed in pain the moment the knife pierced through his flesh.

"Stop hurting him!" Morgan yelled. "I didn't lie, my name is Derek Morgan."

"Really?" The Unsub smiled evilly. "Just Derek Morgan or Supervisory Special Agent Derek Morgan?"
