.” he tells her.Jessica listens intently.“Do you know where she is now?” she asks.“No, I have no clue.I sensed her faintly at the house, but I can’t be sure because the scent of the humans overpowered any other smell.I am worried about her Jess, can you check on her for me?”Jessica nods.“Of course.I have to wait until I go back out though, because they took my phone when I came in.I am going to try to get them to release you, I have watched enough law shows to know that they cannot hold you without probable cause.I am going to call them in for the questioning now.”Jessica informs the officers that she is ready for the questioning and they came into the room.“We have reason to believe that your client knows the whereabouts of a missing woman.We found her possessions at his house and she was spotted earlier nearby.” One of the officers says.“So, let me get this straight.You take my client into custody because someone is staying at his house? How old is this woman?” she asks Chris.He tells her that Alex is twenty-two.“She is twenty-two years old, that means that she is an adult and she is free to make her own decisions.If she doesn’t want to contact her family, then my client has nothing to do with that.She isn’t a fugitive, she isn’t a minor and she wasn’t kidnapped.My client must be released immediately or I will file a lawsuit against the state.He should not have been in custody for a woman who makes her own decisions.” Jessica says, while Chris stares at her in admiration.It seems the women in his life will continue to impress him and leave him speechless.The officer turns to Chris.“We have to release you, but please tell her that her family is worried and they miss her.Ask her to just give them a call to say that she is okay.”By the time Jessica and Chris leave the police station, the sun is almost out, but Jess had taken umbrellas with her as a backup.They got into her rental and started the journey to his house to find Alex.Chapter FiveAlex has been sitting in the tree outside of the jail cells for the past two hours.She has to leave soon because the place is getting to bright and she isn’t sure if her umbrella will provide enough shield from the sun’s rays.She has tried unsuccessfully to communicate with him to see how to help him to escape.She is worried sick about what is going on with him.She has no idea who to call or what to do.She knows that she cannot go into the police station because they will recognize her and cause drama that she doesn’t want.This has been her roughest night since Chris’ return.Everything just went downhill so quickly and she blames herself for being careless.Had she not allowed herself to be seen, none of this would have happened.The look on their faces was hard for her to take in.it is obvious that they are truly hurt by her disappearance and the thought of them thinking that she ran away and chose not to contact them, chose to leave them in misery is troubling to her.She hopes that they can think of a way to give them some closure to allow them to move on with their lives.This is something that she has to put some thought into because she hates that this is causing them so much pain.It is funny that a few months ago, she thought her parents didn’t really love her.It is a pity that it took this tragedy for her to know how they feel and for them to really show her that they love her.Her parents have never been vocal about their feelings, nor were they affectionate people who showed their emotions.There is an old saying that we should make use of time because it goes by in a flash.Alex and her parents are perfect examples of that.No one expected this, not even the person who caused it all.Seeing that she is having no luck with helping Chris to escape and that it is getting dangerously bright, Alex makes her way back home.This time, she makes sure to observe her surroundings and moves as fast as she can to ensure that she isn’t seen.As Alex makes her way through the woods, she can’t shake the feeling that she is being watched by somebody.She jumps into a tree and scan the area around her, but sees no one.She has that eerie feeling that eyes are following her and she runs as fast as she can, but slows down when she gets close to the house.Afraid that the same thing that happened to Chris might happen to her, she quickly climbs into a tree and concentrates on the scents around her.She visibly relaxes when she senses Chris, and looks up in confusion when she senses another vampire.It has a peculiar scent, one she has never smelled before.Alex jumps down from the tree and cautiously enters the house through the back door.She sees no one in the back rooms, but finds Chris standing by the living room, and a woman sitting in the couch.Chris walks over to her with outstretched arms.“Oh, Alex.Thank God you are okay.I have been so worried.”Instead of going into his arms, Alex uses her hand to block him and looks from him to the woman.“Who is this?” she asks him.“Oh, my bad.Alex, this is Jessica, the woman I told you about.”“You finally found her.” she says, taking a seat in a chair.Chris doesn’t like her tone, but because he knows that she has been having a rough time, he pretends to not notice.“Yes, I found her last night.I was coming back to tell you when I ran into the little welcome party.” He laughs.“I could sense you last night, but it wasn’t strong enough for me to know where you were.Where were you hiding?”“I was in a tree out back.I sensed them coming and ran outside so they didn’t find me inside.I wanted to call you to warn you, but I realized too late that I left the phone inside.I was hoping that you would sense them and turn back, but it seems you were still distracted.” She looks over at Jessica when she says ‘distracted.’Jessica remains silent throughout their exchange.Sensing the tension between them and feeling that she is somehow the cause, she deliberately ignores the jibe that Alex throws her way.She knows how women are when they are hurt and she knows Alex will soon get over her insecurity when she sees that Chris really loves her and that she isn’t a threat to her relationship.“I was indeed distracted, but I was so excited to get home to you and share the good news.” Chris says to her.“I was thirsty and went hunting.I was also distracted and didn’t sense a nearby group that was hiking.The person that saw me was a classmate of mine and she must have alerted the police, who trailed me her.Apparently she saw the direction that I went it and then told them.I’m sorry for being careless.” She says.Shaking his head, Chris says.“We were both careless and should have been more careful.” He sits down on the handle of the chair beside her.“I missed you.” He says, placing his hand around her shoulders.Alex leans away from him.“How did you get out?” she asks.Confused, yet again by her behavior, Chris tells her.“I called Jessica to pretend to be my lawyer.She told them that they didn’t have any grounds under which to hold me because all of your sightings showed that you are not being restrained.You are not a minor and you are not being held against your will.She was pretty good actually, my freedom proves it.” He smiles [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
