Chapter 1
Emily woke up surrounded by darkness. She was cold and confused, her head throbbed as she tried to free herself from the chair she was tied down in. Panic shot through her body as she remembered the voice she heard before she lost consciousness. "Hello Lauren." It was Ian Doyle.
A soft smile formed on her face when she woke up that morning. The memories of the previous night were still clearly etched in her mind. She thought about how ridiculously nervous she was when she got down on her knee in the middle of the restaurant and asked JJ to marry her in front of dozens of strangers.
She was snapped out of her thoughts when she heard her cell phone vibrating on the nightstand. She grabbed it and saw she had one new message.
Tsia Mosley: I got a lead. Come to my apartment ASAP.
Emily: Be there soon
She got off the bed slowly, mindful not to wake JJ up. Technically they still had an hour before they had to be up. Emily quickly showered and got dressed. She was about to write a note to let JJ know she had left early when she heard a soft voice.
"Good morning, sweetheart."
"Good morning," Emily sighed. She was really hoping to get out of there before JJ woke up. The last thing she wanted to do was lie to her future wife.
"I have to meet with an old colleague for coffee before work." Emily said before JJ could ask any questions. "There's an old case she wants to discuss with me. I'll see you at the office." It wasn't the complete truth, but it also want a lie. She leaned down to give JJ a quick kiss on the forehead.
"Ok," JJ replied. She watched as Emily walked out the door. She looked down at her left hand, admiring the huge diamond on her engagement ring. She could care less how big it was, she was just so excited to start the next phase of their life together.
As Emily drove over to her old friend's apartment she thought back to their original conversation over a week ago. Tsia had told her that she felt like she was being followed ever since her boyfriend Jeremy was found dead. Originally Emily had thought Tsia was just being paranoid. Especially when she suggested that his murder was somehow connected to Ian Doyle. He wouldn't know their real identities. "There's no way," she kept telling herself.
Emily parked her SUV and walked up towards the familiar apartment. When she reached the front door she saw that it was half way open. Her instincts immediately kicked in. She reached for her weapon holstered at her waist and slowly entered the room. She cleared the kitchen, the living room, and advanced to the bedroom. As soon as she walked in her heart felt like it dropped to her stomach. Tsia was lying on the floor next to the bed, her hands were bound behind her back. There was a single bullet hole in the middle of her forehead. The blood that trickled down her forehead was already dry. She began to panic once she realized that Tsia didn't send her that message. She was set up.
"Hello Lauren," Doyle said right before he hit Emily in the back of the head with his gun.
