Chapter 9
Bridgette grabbed her sweat pants and a large baggy T-shirt and put them on, then going over to the bed she leaned down and kissed Nathan before grabbing the scranchie and put her hair up in a loose pony tail as she walked for the door and opened it up.
" I will be back shortly to help you with that thing that you have right there." Bridgette smiled wickedly at Nathan before shutting the door.
Walking down the hallway and then downstairs and then walking into the living room but then she realized that her uncle was not alone and that his Deputy was with him.
" Um . . . morning Lynette, so you both want to see me about something." Bridgette went over to the couch and sat down next to Lionel.
" Morning Bridg, we are sorry to be calling on you this early in the morning but we need to know where were you last night." Lynette reached into her shirt pocket and pulled out a small note pad.
" I see and maybe I should ask why do you need to know where I was last night?" Bridgette sounded a little agitated that Lynnette was accusing her of something that she did not do or even know about.
" There has been another murder and Seth called us earlier because it was he who found another body in the forest." Lionel turned to look at his niece.
" I my God . . . um still why are you here?" Bridgette's eyes went wide with shock.
" Well it seems that when your brother was looking for you, he found your clothes and they were cover with blood, and then we tested the blood on them and it came back as human blood." Lionel looked at Bridgette and watched the look change on her face.
" I see, well did you test all of the blood, and did the type of blood come back with DNA." Bridgette glared at both police officers.
" Now Bridgette calm down, we are here to ask you a couple of questions is all." Lionel reached out and touched his niece's hand.
" I see well, I did not do anything wrong and yes there is human blood on that shirt, but it is my blood, see here is the cut and it happen when I was gutting a deer that I killed last night." Bridgette lifted up her arm and showed the police officers the bandaged up arm.
" What were you doing in the forest last night?" Lynnette nodded when she saw the bandage on the other girl's wrist.
" I was patrolling the forest because it seems that someone is trespassing and leaving dead bodies on our property and I came across a buck that was but not dead, so I killed it and took it home and gutted it so most of the blood got on my clothes was the deer's blood." Bridgette looked at both police officers.
" Ok I did see the deer hanging in the garage and I will ask for more testing done on the blood on your shirt, and then I will let you know what we find. Well I will let you get back to what you were doing when we showed up. You and Nathan have a great day." Lionel stood up and gave Bridgette a knowing smile because he knew what she was doing when him and Lynette showed up so they could question her about her whereabouts last night.
Both Lionel and Lynette said goodbye to Bridgette and left the cabin and went back to the office.
" So what do you think, you believe everything she says is true." Lynette looked over at her boss as they walked to the car.
" Yes she is telling us the truth. She did kill that deer and got blood all over herself, and I have a feeling that we have another one here besides my family, Nathan's family, Michael's family and your family and this one is very evil." Lionel got into the car and once inside the car he closed his eyes and laid his head back against the seat.
" You are right about two things: one she did not do any of the killings and two we need to find who is doing this because if we don't then we will be hunted and killed for something we have not even done." Lynette started up the engine and put the car in reverse and backed up before stopping and putting the car into drive and then drove away from the cabin.
" So very true, well it is time for me to get home and get to bed, that is after a nice hot shower to relax my stiff muscles." Lionel smiled before opening the door and getting out and going over to the gate and unlocked it then waited for Lynette to drive through the gate before closing and locking it up again, before getting back into the car.
Lynette drove them back to the police station so that way she could get to work while Lionel too his car home, so that way he could have his day off.
" Goodbye Lionel and see you in a couple of days and I hope your days off are relaxing." Lynette got out of the car and smiled at Lionel.
Lionel got out of the car and went over to the driver's side and got back into the car and shutting the door and buckling up.
" Thanks and if you need anything just call, well I should say good night." Lionel gave a laugh before putting the car into drive and drove off towards his house.
Bridgette went over to the window and watched the two police officers drive away from the house.
" What did they want." Nathan came up behind Bridgette and wrapped his arms around her waist.
" There was another body found in the woods and they thought I had something to do with it, mmm . . . that feels good and let me see what we have here." Bridgette felt Nathan kissing her neck and also felt Nathan's hard staff poking the lower part of her back.
" Really, I did not sense anyone last night when I was walking to our private hidden spot." Nathan slid his right hand down across Bridgette's stomach and moved between her flesh and waist band of her sweat pants.
" Mmm . . . and I too did not sense anyone but you . . . they are gone, come on lets go play." Bridgette moved out of Nathan's arms and took his hands and led him upstairs to the bedroom and back to the bed, where they stayed there for the rest of the day.
" Good afternoon Seth Robertta and your regulars." Judy nodded to them as they walked into the restaurant.
" Afternoon Judy, yes that sounds good to me." Robertta nodded to the girl as she headed for the table that she always sits at when she comes to the restaurant.
" Ok and for you Seth?" Judy returned the older woman's nod and then looked over at Seth.
" Hey Judy, yes that will be great. How is Mark doing?" Seth asked about Judy's little boy, who had been sick with the flu.
" He is feeling a little better, thank you and I will be over with you drinks." Judy gave Seth a smile as she grabbed two glasses and put a little bit of ice in them before going over to the tea containers and began pouring the tea into the glasses.
Seth went to the table that his grandmother was already sitting down at.
" Here you go two sweet teas, and the food will be out in a few minutes." Judy came over to the table with the two teas.
" Thanks Judy." both Seth and Robertta nodded to Judy.
Judy smiled and walked over to the new couple that just came into the restaurant.
" So what are you going to do after lunch?" Robertta took a sip of her tea.
" I was thinking about sleeping but I just remember that I do need to fix that fence on the South side of the house." Seth also took a sip of tea as he looked out the window because he thought he recognized someone who was walking down the side walk that was across the street.
" I see well I will be home in a couple of house, I was almost finishing entering last week's inventory and sales into the computer, so when I am done with it am coming home." Robertta also saw the person that was walking on the other side of the street.
" Ok, so do you think Bridgette is going to be coming home or stay wherever she is at today, and of course my bet is she is with Nathan." Seth prayed that his sister will stay at her boyfriend's house and stay there all weekend long.
" She is over at Nathan's and I told her to stay there all weekend since she has the weekend off and Nathan did say that he will keep her there. I just wonder if Lionel knows that he is here." Robertta did see that person who had left town two years ago, and now she wonders if it knows anything about the two murders that happen in the past couple of days.
" That is good to hear, I was wondering if that was him, well I guess I will have to keep an eye on him. Thanks Judy." Seth looked up at Judy as she brought their lunch to them.
They ate mostly in silence and just enjoyed their time together as a family.
Thirty minutes later Seth and Robertta walked back to the shop and then Seth said goodbye to his grandmother and then said bye to Amanda, but before he could walk out of the shop two young ladies walked into the shop and they even smiled at him, and the dark haired one even winked at him.
Seth walked out of the shop and got into his car, and once in the car he began driving down the street and it was at the stop light he saw that person again, so pulling out his phone and began dialing a number.
" Yeah?" the person on the phone answered.
" I know you are here, so meet me at the restaurant tomorrow for lunch." Seth told the person before hanging up his phone.
Once Seth got home he went to work on the fence that needed to be fixed and when his grandmother came home he started up the grill, he was going to have a cook out with his grandmother, and he only wished that his sister and other family members could be here with him and his grandmother.
The lone wolf stood there in the shadows and just watched the two people and it was a snapping of a twig that made the wolf turn away from the scene. The creature turned away and just headed off for its den and just laid down and dozed off to sleep.
