DARK AND DEADLY TIES

CHAPTER 4

Sometimes, alas, the conscience of men

is loaded with a burden so horrible that

we can only free in the grave.

Thus absence remains shrouded in mystery.

POV Theodore

That morning, I woke up still exhausted and tired. I choked my eyes, looking at the alarm clock on the bedside table, thinking about my night with Alyssa, Sarah and Draco.

We had so much fun and I realized that Alyssa and I, we had in common a perfect synchrony and like any woman, she could stand up to me.

But there was something that turned on an alarm bell in me, at the end of the dance, Alyssa, she seemed cold and detached. It was Draco on the way back to tell me what was happening, and what he told me made my skin crawl.

START FLASHBACK

- Theodore, I have to tell you something! - Draco spoke as he and Thedore, headed home.

- Tell me, Draco, what's going on? - I asked, stopping on the sidewalk.

- It's about Alyssa! Tonight, after you danced, you sat at the bar, while Alyssa went to the bathroom. She had her phone in her ear and so, to see who she was talking to, I followed her to the bathroom and she was cursing at someone! -

- Do you know who Draco was talking to? Who was he talking to, did you hear anything? -

- With someone threatening her... Theo, What do you know about Alyssa? -

- Actually Draco, I don't know anything about her... I just know she doesn't get along with her family, but I don't know anything else-

- I think you're a journalist! And I'm afraid you may be the next victim of the Killer-

END OF FLASHBACK

I would have realized that very morning that Draco was not wrong and that he had been right. I had to think fast and act to help Alyssa, hoping that my friend was wrong.

The sound of my phone shook me from my thoughts. I took it from the bedside table, and as soon as I saw it was Draco, I answered.

- Hello Draco, tell me? -

- Theodore, there are news. The killer killed again! And the analysis of the other victims-

- Draco, five minutes... I get dressed and arrive! -

- I'll pick you up in half an hour, we'll head to the crime scene together! -

- All right, Draco! -

I closed the call and after heading for the shower, I undressed and entered the stall. I soaped and after rinsing, I wrapped myself in a robe.

I dried myself and after putting on the green/silver uniform and shoes, I dragged the door behind me and waited for Draco near the door.

My friend and colleague, arrived shortly after and after getting in the car, we headed towards Central Park. When we arrived at the crime scene, there were a lot of reporters, but the thing that caught my attention was Alyssa sitting on a bench and crying in Sarah's arms.

I approached them, always accompanied by Draco, and I started asking the girls questions, but I could see that the only one who answered was Sarah. Alyssa continued to cry and looked at the body, but the voice of the platinata spoke.

- Alyssa, you have to tell the truth.. Tell her that you've had threats in the last few weeks! -

- I can't Sarah... I've already caused too much trouble, my sister is dead! -

- Alyssa, Sarah... Can you explain the situation to me and Draco! Please?! -

Alyssa looked down and after swallowing her saliva, cornered, she started talking.

- Sarah can you leave me and Theodore alone? - asked the girl, before turning to the Moor.

- Yes, Lys... I'll see you later at the office! -

Sarah and Draco, they left us alone and shortly after Alyssa, she started talking again.

- That's it... I don't know where to start and I'm sorry for what I'm about to say! I've hidden things from you Theo! I've been hiding the fact that I'm a journalist and that for a few weeks now, I've been getting threats! - he told me, pulling a computer out of a bag. I started reading them, feeling myself growing in a great anguish, I didn't want to lose that girl who could understand me and read me inside.

- Alyssa these are very serious threats! You have to quit your job-

- I can't, Theodore, you can't ask to quit my job! -

- Alyssa... You don't realize that I... have feelings for you! I'm in love, I don't want to see you on that sidewalk! I don't want to see you instead of the victims! - I was getting nervous because, I didn't know how to protect her.

Alyssa looked at me, a sweet, yet frightened look, and then, she said something to me that frightened me.

- That girl, the victim, I know very well! That's Daphne, my little sister! My sweet little sister who was taken from me and to whom I loved a good soul. Theo, my sister was sweet and innocent, I miss her! How much longer will this worm continue to kill? How much longer will this story continue? - exclaimed the girl, bursting to tears in my chest. I already knew what to do and how to fix it, but first I wanted to talk to Draco and my father.

- Alyssa we'll take him! And then we'll make him pay the pain of hell! - I said.

At that moment, after saying that sentence, in Alyssa's face there was a sign of determination and I did not do in time to realize the thing that she kissed me.

I realized that Alyssa had fallen in love with me and I, I fell in love with that huge, beautiful and mysterious head.

POV'S Sarah

Once we left Theodore and Alyssa, me and the blond, we headed to the place where a couple of cops were taking the evidence.

I looked, those young protectors of the law, and then I turned my gaze to Draco who, observing the work of his colleagues carefully, thinking about how hard their lives must be. Ever since I was a child, I thought that that kind of job category was not risky, but once I grew up, I realized that it was more dangerous than the journalist.

- Draco... can I ask you something? Well, I don't want to mind your business, and I don't want to be considered curious, but what led you to be a detective? - I asked, looking at the blond who had stopped, looking at me with perplexity.

- You're not a curious person at all, but I can tell you that I became a cop to please my parents.. You know, they're both lawyers, and initially, they wanted me to follow in their footsteps, but I wanted to do more! I wanted to catch criminals and arrest them, but I also wanted to make mine happy. So after attending law school and law school, I decided to work with Theodore... and what about you? -

The same goes for me... I became a journalist to make my family happy, but it was useless Draco... My parents were killed, I had just graduated in journalism and they never saw me... -

- I am sorry... -

- Ah, I'm used to loneliness now! Of course Alyssa came into my life later! -

- Speaking of Alyssa... I think Theodore is madly and madly in love with your friend-

- I'm glad!.. Alyssa deserves to be happy... and I think Theodre can do it. She can protect her and make her happy-

We stopped talking when Alyssa and Theodore arrived and after all four of us, we headed towards my office. Theodore wanted to talk to us, and I offered to give him my office to talk better.
