The police sheriff gripped the paper tightly. He was sitting cozily behind his desk in his quiet little city of Lincoln, Nebraska. He gazed sharply out of the window. Outside he observed an overcast of clouds in the sky that was relentlessly dumping snow on his little town. His mouth went dry, and he could feel beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

“Where did you get this?” The sergeant asked his deputy. The deputy was standing in the sergeant’s office and was a fresh boot from the academy. He now had a look of nervousness on him. His sergeant was a very large man you didn’t want to mess with and was well known for his temper.

“A dog just dropped it off at the front desk.”

“A dog?”

“Yeah, I mean it had the envelope attached to its collar. We took the note and the dog ran off.”

“Where did the dog go?”

“Um I’m not sure sir. Should we call animal control? Everything alright? What’s it say?” the deputy asked. The sergeant quickly stopped and turned towards the deputy. It was if the sergeant forgot he was in the room.

“Yeah no. Everything’s fine. Dismissed.” The sergeant said. The deputy had a look of confusion on his face. He put his finger up but before he could say anything, the sergeant cut him off and repeated, ‘dismissed.’

The deputy walked out of the room. He closed the door behind him and as soon as he did, the sergeant leaped from his chair over to the door and locked it. He raced back to his desk, picked up the phone and dialed a number. He stood hunched over his desk with the phone jammed hard into his ear. A woman picked up on the other end of the line.

“Hey sweetie.”

“What the fuck is this? This some sort of sick joke. You could of got us caught.”

“Oh baby I was just in town and wanted to send you a little loven.”

“Do you want to get caught? You’re one of the nations most wanted men.”

“Woman.”

“ You know what I mean.”

“I’m sorry baby it’s just been so boring here. Ever since I got here, you’ve been working that job. You need to be working these hips” the woman said while letting out a soft giggle in a country ascent.

The sergeant let out a soft sigh. He looked out the window at the tundra of Lincoln and he felt his heart begin warm up and flutter. He felt himself getting aroused. He relaxed and loosened up his shoulders.

“This letter. Did you kill again?”

“She’s not dead yet. She wants to watch like the others.”

“So you caught us a snack huh? Was it a clean grab?”

“Oh baby its clean and ready to get dirty for you.”

“Alright baby, I’m leaving soon. Keep her alive and we’ll have her watch and well kill the sinner tonight. Together.

The woman on the other line groaned sexually and let out another giggle, “Alright, I’ll see you soon officer.” The woman hung up.

The sergeants heart began to race. He met Melanie Frost a few months ago. She was on the run and he had picked her up on a traffic stop. She was a beautiful petite woman. She was tan and had long black hair that curled beautifully down her large breast. She was flirty and extremely attractive. The sergeant was possessed by the woman. She had dark sexual fantasies that he played out with her. She was his every desire. He learned about her past, but she convinced him he was her white knight savior. His obsession with the woman allowed her to act out. This included some sexual fantasies that occasionally ended in murder. She liked it. Therefore, he liked it.

He walked over to his coat rack and put on his jacket. He walked over to the door and unlocked it. He thought to himself, ‘God I’m such a lucky man.’

He exited his office and turned around and locked up. He turned around and stopped mid stride. His eyes grew in fear. The entire police force was sitting around his secretary’s desk. They had a look of anger and disgust. He looked at his secretary. She had a look of horror on her face. She looked down at her desk at her phone. It was on speakerphone and was listening in on his conversation with Ms. Frost.
