Teresa stood out on her balcony over looking the Crane estate. It truly was a magnificent site. The gardens were perfectly maintained, her fathers handywork could be seen throughout the grounds and several family cottages sat bordering the estate. She had always dreamed of a life like this. A life of leisure, a mansion in the sky. A beautiful family. Unfortunately, she seemed to be loosing her dream.

She was married to Ethan out of obligation. She was living in a house that wasn't even hers. Out of pity from Julian and Eve, until Ethan could make enough money to afford a down payment on them a new home. The man she loved had shunned her for six months and today showed back up and threw her a curve ball. Oh, and then there was the whole nightmare mess. What else? The only thing she had going for her at the moment was her son.

She thought about what Fox had said before he left. "I'd kill anybody that hurt you, Teresa." The sheer passion in those few words led Teresa to believe that Fox would indeed kill anybody who hurt her. Had that meant Gwen? She still wasn't convinced that Gwen's death had been a true suicide. Things just didn't add up. No, no. She shook her head. Fox could never kill anybody. Could he? No man that could make love to her like Fox Crane could be capable of murder.

Her mind wondered to her own self. These nightmares were driving her insane! Why was she having these dreams? Was it guilt? Did she kill Gwen and not remember it? Maybe she was having some repressed memories and her conscious was getting the better of her.

Wait a minute. Maybe Ethan had something to do with it. He was angry as hell with Gwen when he learned of all her deception. She had always portrayed herself as the innocent bystander to the entire triangle. Always blamed Teresa for everything. Never took the blame for anything she did wrong. Gwen always seemed to have an explanation for everything she did. Maybe the pain of knowing that Gwen had betrayed him and caused him to loose the one woman he truly loved was enough to send even Ethan over the edge.

Teresa rubbed her aching forehead. Her imagination was getting the better of her. Surely Sam and the rest of the Harmony PD wouldn't have let a murderer slip by. She trusted Luis with all her heart and knew he would have done anything to solve the case, even if it was a case that involved the woman that had tried ruining her life. They would have investigated the case thoroughly. They must have had enough data to rule the case a suicide.

Teresa turned to walk back into her room and saw Ethan standing in the doorway watching her. She nearly jumped out of her skin. "Ethan, you scared me."

"Penny for your thoughts." He smiled.

"Oh, you know how I am." She shrugged it off. "My minds always racing. How has you day been?" She asked trying to change the subject.

"Actually, that's why I stopped by. I picked up two new clients today. Huge clients in fact. Rich, powerful women looking for a divorce from the even richer, more powerful, not to mention cheating husbands. Hopefully with the retainers that I received today we should have enough for a down payment on our very own home. How does that sound?"

She smiled up at him. "That sounds great. I mean not that the women are getting cheated on, but..."

"Somehow I thought you might be a little more excited. Is everything okay?"

"Well, I did have something I wanted to ask you."

"Yeah, what's that?"

"Did you happen to slip something in my drink last night? I had another nightmare and it was worse this time. I wasn't able to bring myself out of the dream as usual."

Ethan cleared this throat and ran his hand through his already tossled her, "Teresa..."

"I knew it! I knew you did something. How dare you Ethan. I told you I didn't want to take anything!"

"I was only trying to help. You look so tired all the time. And then the other night when I woke up and you were gone and I couldn't find you...I nearly went out of my mind looking for you."

"Ethan, I'm okay, I promise. We've just had a lot going on lately. Let me work through the problems in my own way. Please! I promise you I'll be okay. Just give me some time and some space."

Ethan sighed and threw up his hands, "Fine. I'm sorry, Teresa. It won't happen again."

"Thank you. Now would you like something for lunch. I'd be happy to fix you a sandwich."

"No, I'm kind of in a hurry. Another perspecivet client coming at one. I'd like to go over some files before they get there." He turned to walk out and noticed a jacket lying across the chair of his desk. He picked it up and looked at it. Teresa nearly panicked. "Whose is this?"

"I don't know, I noticed it there when I came out of the shower. Maybe someone left it here by mistake while they were visiting and one of the maids thought it was yours. I'll ask one of them if you would like for me to." She walked over to take it from him, but he moved just when she reached for it. "This jacket looks familair."

"Like I said, probably just someone visiting and they left it her by accident. Maybe you saw them wearing it that day. Don't worry about it. In fact, Luis was just over a couple of days ago with Sheridan, maybe it's his. Come to think of his I believe I saw him wearing it." She shooed him toward the door, "Remember, Important clients are waiting, you don't want to miss them." She kissed him on the cheek and slipped the jacket out of his hands. "Goodbye Ethan. Don't be too late tonight."

"I'll be home in time for supper. How about a picnic at the gazebo?"

She smiled up at him. "Sounds great. I'll have something ready when you get home."

Ethan walked of the mansion and while driving back to his office he remembered where he had seen that jacket. It was the same denim jacket that Fox wore all the time. The maids had seen him wearing it enough to know it was his. Ethan scratched his forehead. "Damn it!" He said hitting the steering wheel. "Not now. I've worked too hard to for all of this. I won't let Fox Crane mess this up."

Hey! What do you think? So far we have two suspects. Fox had a motive because he wanted Teresa to be happy. Ethan had a motive because of Gwen's deception. Maybe there will be more suspects, but you'll just have to continue reading to find out!
