Wyatt smiled as he walked into the room, and Lindsay moved off the bed and stood in front of Wyatt. She started unbuttoning his blue uniform shirt and started kissing his neck. Wyatt moaned in ecstasy and growing anticipation. Lindsay moved lower and kissed him over his abdomen—she started undoing his belt. Lindsay dropped to her knees and removed his hardening member out of his pants and started kissing the tip.
Wyatt gently stroked his wife’s hair and touched her ears as she started to put more of him inside of her mouth. Lindsay started moaning, which aroused Wyatt even more. The growing ecstasy was bringing him close to climaxing, so he gently stopped her and picked her up. He started kissing her passionately. He could taste himself on her lips.
Wyatt moved her onto the bed and started kissing her earlobes—Lindsay exhaled passionately, and Wyatt moved down her neck and started caressing her breasts with his lips. He spent time on each nipple, gently teasing them with his tongue. Wyatt could feel the increasing wetness between Lindsay’s legs on his groin. He moved lower, kissing her stomach and moving his lips between her legs. Lindsay moaned as he started licking her clitoris. Wyatt moved two of his fingers inside of her and within a few minutes, Lindsay’s body spasmed as she orgasmed. Wyatt moved up, back toward her lips and they kissed passionately as he entered her. Wyatt’s thrusts grew in intensity until he came inside Lindsay. They both moaned in a pleasurable release when Wyatt rolled off Lindsay—they laid next to each other.
Lindsay touched Wyatt’s temple gently, “There is something bothering you, isn’t there?”
“Why do you say that?”
“You seem a little distant, and besides, you’re my husband. I know when something is bothering you,” Lindsay kissed him gently.
“It’s Ness. She came into the station today, and she asked me if I’d heard of any murders in Chicago in the last few days. I told her that there wasn’t anything noteworthy, and then she asked me to forget that she asked.”
“Do you think she’s done something?” Lindsay moved closer to Wyatt.
“I don’t know. I hope not, but with this strange change that has occurred in her, I don’t know what to think anymore.”
“Babe, I’m sure it’s nothing. I do think that things will be better when she comes to stay with us for a while. We can keep a close eye on her then.”
“Mm-hmm,” Wyatt agreed.
Lindsay moved her head onto Wyatt’s chest, and he turned out the light next to the bed. He stroked her gently, and within a few minutes, Lindsay’s breathing had become deep and serene. Wyatt continued to stroke her hair. The feel of Lindsay’s naked body and the smell of her hair calmed him. But there was an underlying feeling of darkness growing in Wyatt’s mind. Something was happening, he could feel it. Through their bedroom window, Wyatt watched clouds move in front of the full moon outside in the night sky. Normally he loved seeing the night sky as he drifted off to sleep, but tonight it felt different—tonight it felt sinister.

Ness flew over the back of the recliner and landed heavily on the other side. She struggled to breathe because the force of Eddie’s kick was far more powerful than she expected. As she was moving into a seated position, Eddie was moving in quickly to carry on with his assault. He moved to kick again, but Ness managed to dodge his kick by falling back to the ground and landing on her back. Eddie still continued to move forward, but he underestimated Ness’ strike range, and she kicked up, straight for his groin. Ness made a hard impact with the soft tissue of his groin, and Eddie fell to the floor with a loud thud. Eddie groaned in pain.
“You bastard,” Ness tried to scream above her inability to breathe and was quickly moving to her feet.
“You didn’t think I was going to make this easy on you, did you?” Eddie said moving swiftly to a standing position. Ness wasn’t sure how he could be up after an impact like that to his groin, but there he stood. “Why did you attack me?” Ness shouted.
“If you want to kill people then you’re going to need to understand that most, if not all, of them will fight back against you. You need to expect the unexpected,” Eddie stated.
“But I don’t want to kill people!” Ness retaliated.
“Then leave. But you and I both know that the darkness within you will want to be fed. You might as well know how to do it, so you don’t face the electric chair,” Eddie sat down in his seat. “There’s no point in denying it, Ness.”
Ness sat down in the same recliner that she was kicked over a few minutes before. “So, what do I do now?”
“Now you learn. You need to learn not only how to kill because that’s the easy part. You need to learn how to choose your victims carefully and how to clean up the scene when you’re done. Leaving any trace evidence behind will lead to your capture. And, looking at how you killed Martin, you definitely need to work on your killing and clean up techniques.”
“I can’t just kill anyone. Martin deserved to die, so killing him was easy,” Ness said.
“But who are you to judge? By killing Martin, you have made yourself equally as bad as he is,” Eddie cleared his throat, “was, so if you want to look at the philosophical viewpoints of your internal argument, then you also deserve to die.”
