Apricots
Chapter 41
Tossing and turning in the bed of the loft. She stayed this evening even though she had the hotel suite she had been staying in since the fight with her husband Richard Castle.
After a few moments, she decided to sit up against the headboard. Taking in a deep sigh to let go of some of the stress with her body.
Looking at the time once again. She heard her cell phone going off like a Christmas tree. She had a feeling that it had to be bad news from the hospital. However, when she saw the name on the screen, it wasn't the hospital after all.
"Captain Anderson, what's going on?" she moved to the edge of the bed.
"We have another body from the Nexus sex club." he makes mention to the Captain.
"How in the hell is this possible when Castle had shot the pert Joey Madison?" she cried out with her anger building.
"Well it seems we have a copycat killer and if this gets out we will be having a panic on our hands along with the police commissioner screaming bloody murder." Captain Anderson croaked out with his comment.
"Where is the body now Captain Anderson?" she was miff mostly with what has been going on.
Taking in a deep breath. Anderson will tell her we're for the moment. "The body of Flowers is with the medical examiner Medical Doctor Syndey Perlmutter and he's not exactly pleased that a copycat was out on the streets killing the women." he alluded with his own anger as well.
"I am going to get dressed to speak with Doctor Perlmutter for any results." she had hung up the phone to let Martha know that she was leaving.
Moments later with having to wake Martha with her sleep interrupted. "What the hell are you doing Beckett to be leaving in the middle of the night? When in fact all of your own people know their jobs. Especially for when it comes to the medical examiner?" Martha was miff with her response.
"I need to find out the truth Martha as to what exactly is going on with this copycat. I am wondering whether Rick knows all about this at all?" she whispered slightly for the moment.
"Stop! I forbid you from telling my son right now. He needs his rest with his recovery. Do I make myself clear?" with her anger at this woman getting in the way.
"CRYSTAL!" Beckett has never been angrier than now...
