Unchained

Chapter 17

Later that day i dropped my sister off and went to Evan's office.

I walked through the glass doors and straight towards the woman at the reception.

"Can i help you?" She asked.

"Mr. Peters please."

"I am sorry mam, Mr Peters is not seeing anyone today."

"Please just ring him, he will be happy to know his fiancee is here."

She gave me a weird glance and then snapped.

"Oh yes of course. I will ring him quickly. Please stay right here."

"Well where else would i go?"

We both gave fake laughs at one another and she left to phone him. After a few mins standing i decided to take a seat in the waiting area with the rest.

"See i told you."

I heard a faint whisper.

"I told you we can trust Croft. Now our lil problem with that psychotherapist is solved."

I froze in my seat, my fingers hurting as i clutched onto my chair.

"Yes but that does not mean that she won't come back."

I tried to listen further when-

"Darlin! Oh what a surprise! Please come." I looked up at Evan and quickly walked towards him while trying to hide my face.

He took my hand and led me to his office, Who are they and why is Croft working for them?

When we entered the office he let go if my hand and crossed his arms.

"So you wanna tell me what you are doing here, baby?"

"Get everything you have of the Kay case now please."

"You know i can't."

I sighed out and tried to calm myself down.

"Evan please, someone i care about is in trouble."

Someone entered the office and Peters pulled me into a kiss.

"Oh my goodness, my apologizes." The woman said and left.

I knew these lips very well and it was strange to feel it. It felt wrong.

I  broke the kiss and stared at him.

"If i show you the Kay files. You have to promise me, to never say that you saw any proof from me. I could loose my job."

"Of course, it will be our lil secret." I laughed and gave him a small little wink.

He gave me a small nod and went to fetch the files.

I took a seat at his desk and saw the rape case that was taken place 2 days ago. Bloody man should just be killed. Who gives one the right? Then again i am in love with a bloody killer.

"Ya okay?"

I jumped as i saw him sitting next to me.

"Yeah lets get busy."

After at least 2 and a half hours - we still found nothing.

"So any love in your life?" I asked daringly.

"Love? Ha! Love is a lie."

"What?"

"Love is a game if Russian Roulette. It takes one wrong person to break you into utter dust."

I felt guilt rush in - did i really make him feel that broken. It just - it didn't work... we never saw each other and we fought twenty four - seven.

"Evan I-"

My phone rang

- unknown number? -

"Excuse me." i said to Evan.

He gave me a small nod as if he understood and carried on looking into the files.

"Good day, Y/N L/N speaking."

"Y/N?"

I heard the voice ...

My heart dropped.

My smile grew.

My eyes watered.

My voice shaky.

"Robbie?"
