Heads Will Roll – Chapter Thirty
A/N: Thank you, Samm, for the contribution toward the website! For whatever reason, JetPack gave me a random offer for a free year of the domain, so it’s now just the plan I have to renew this year, which with Samm’s contribution, is just another $33 ❤ NOT EDITED Bridget couldn’t help herself—she kissed JeffContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Thirty”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Nine
NOT EDITED A brief treck through the treeline around the lake had revealed no obvious signs of a corpse, so Bo had called Dallas for a ride to their killer’s house. Though he still believed it made the most sense to keep the soon-to-be-revived body near the scene of the final steps of the ritual,Continue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Nine”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Six
**A/N: I REALLY struggled with this chapter. Like, staring at every day for two months and not being able to make any progress, struggled. To finally get past the section that was giving me the most trouble, I just kind of jotted down roughly what happens, and I’ll eventually write that scene out in fullContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Six”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Five
NOT EDITED By the time Jeff and Bridget heard the voicemail on Rick’s work phone, he’d already received a call on his cell. Now, he stood in the entryway of an empty farmhouse on the outskirts of Ellepath, hands held up by his head, eyes trained on the gun pointed at his face. It hadContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Five”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Four
NOT EDITED “The blood from the basement was definitely fresh from the father of the original killer in California, but the one from Carol Jameson’s scene came back positive for EDTA, and so did the reporter’s blood from Logan’s bedroom.” “And… what’s that, exactly?” Jeff asked, leaned back against one of the evidence shelves, armsContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Four”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Two
NOT EDITED Rick woke to Heidi standing up from the couch first, his cell ringing in his pocket second. Eyes still closed, he fished his phone out of his pocket, swiped his finger across the bottom of the screen, and pressed the device to his ear. “Downs.” “Hello, Rick.” “Who is this?” “Who do youContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-Two”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-One
NOT EDITED Saturday: February 1, 2014 Bo had managed to sleep straight through the night, something he usually didn’t even accomplish back home. Sure, five in the morning was certainly considered early for most people, but it was still a lot later than he normally managed in one go. In the clinic’s little break room,Continue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty-One”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty
NOT EDITED In the basement of Ellepath’s little clinic, Bo had just begun photographing Jordan Sherman’s clothed body when the door opened. He glanced up before his focus returned to his camera. “Mister Pitman.” “Bo,” Jamal greeted from the doorway. “I want to sincerely apologize for Katherine’s… presence here. That never should have happened. “ItContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Twenty”
Heads Will Roll – Chapter Nineteen
NOT EDITED Rick and Bo beat Bridget and Jeff to the lake, but unfortunately for everyone, Kathy had beaten all of them. Rick climbed out of the cruiser, slamming the door behind him. “Are you fucking kidding me?” he asked. “What the fuck are you doing here?” “Nice to see you too,” Kathy said, leanedContinue reading “Heads Will Roll – Chapter Nineteen”
