Charles POV:
I sigh in exasperation.
Simon dead, Rita dead
and now Sophia is
gone.
This is the most
trilling case I have
ever investigated
since I join the FBI.
Most of the case I
have investigated
started badly but
ends on a smooth
runs, but with the
look of things this
case will be very
trivial and difficult.
My phone started and
I saw its was Samuel
calling.
“Hello Charles get a
biro and piece of
paper I’m about to
call out the
Adekoya’s, both the
ones living in
abroad.”

“That’s all bro.” He
said.
The Adekoya’s are
much, and most of
them live abroad, we
need alert everyone
of them.
“Wow thanks alot bro,
this will help alot.”
“Oh I forgot to
include Mr Adekoya.”
“Never mind bro he’s
my key of getting the
serial killer.”
“You think he knows
something?.”
“Let’s say its a
maybe but we have
to investigate deeper
into this case.”
“Ok bro it’s already
late go home and
take a rest.” I
checked my watch
which says 09:02.
Geez I was Soo
engrossed in this
case I did not realize
it was already late.
I have house in
Badagry where my
wife and children
lives, they are going
to be happy to see
me.
“Ok bro thanks alot,
tomorrow we are
leaving for England,
Sophia Adekoya was
found dead in her
bathroom.”
“Ok bro goodnight, till
tomorrow then.”
I hung up and got up,
grab my car keys,
switch off the light in
my office and slip
out of the building.
I walk to where my
car was parked,
hooting of owls and
cries of bats filled
the eerie street
sending chill down my
spine, a black cat ran
down a dark alley.
But I did not notice
all this as my head
was processing two
questions.
WHO IS THIS SERIAL
KILLER
and
WHAT DOES HE
WANTS FROM THE
ADEKOYA’S.
I got in my car as I
turn the key in the
ignition, the car
roared back to life
as I drive through the
silent street.
“Daddy!!!!!!!!.” My two
kids jump at me as I
step in the compound
completely
exhausted.
“Wow, I have missed
my little princess and
Prince.”
Joe is Seven years
and really really
stubborn.
Hannah is three years
old, shy and timid.
I carry the both of
them In arms into the
house as they
giggled happily.
“Where’s your mum.” I
ask as soon as we
enter the sitting room.
“She’s in the kitchen
preparing dinner.” Joe
answered quickly.
“Ok you two go
continue what you
are doing let me see
your mom, I’m going
to read you two a
bedtime story.”
They jump happily, I
went to the kitchen
to see my wife,
Rachel James, stirring
a pot of stew on a
cooker, beads of
sweat form on her
temple.
I slowly slip behind
her, encircle my hand
around her waist
before planting a kiss
on her neck.
She jerk back in a
shock as she turn
around to see me
grinning at her.
“My God Charles, why
did you do that, you
scared me.”
I chuckled. “Just
missed you dear.” I
said and pull her
close to me before
kissing her
passionately, slidding
my tongue into her
mouth and wrapping
my hand around her
tiny waist.
She pushed me back.
“Charles don’t let the
stew I’m cooking to
get burnt.”
He laughed. “I missed
you my love.”
“I missed you more
dear.”
“Ok I should leave
you now, so you can
prepare dinner in
time.” I was already
walking out of the
kitchen when she
called me.
“When we are through
eating, we need to
talk.”
She said a worried
look on her face, our
discussion isn’t
gonna be good.
We finished eating
and I tucked the
children to bed
reading them a
bedtime story till they
both drift to sleep.
Now Rachel and I was
lying on the couch in
the sitting room, her
head was resting on
my chest as I wrap
my hand around her.
It has been quite a
while since I held her
like this and I missed
every moment.
“You said you want
to discuss something
with me, what’s that?.”
She raised her head
from my chest to
look at me and there
was a sad look on
her face.
“Charles you have to
drop this case.”
I took me a while to
register what she
meant. “You mean the
Adekoya’s case.”
“Yes, Charles the
serial killer you are
on the hunt for is
very dangerous and
killing is isn’t new to
him/her, if you keep
on going deep into
this matter he will
want to harm you.”
D--n it, why didn’t I
see this coming, my
wife and I has never
have this kinda
discussion before,
why now??.
“Rachel listen, just as
the serial killer is
trained, so am I and I
know the risk in this,
so I will also protect
myself.”
“What about us?.”
She ask and I froze.
“What do you mean?.”
I ask.
“If you can save
yourself from the
Serial killer what
about us?.”
“You think he’s going
to come for you…..for
the kids?.”
She didn’t reply to
this, she just avert
her gaze so I
wouldn’t see the
tears that are now
threatening to fall.
I turn her face back
to me and said in a
soft voice. “Rachel, I
will never let anything
or anybody not even
the Serial killer harm
you or the kids,
that’s a promise my
love.”
She hugged me and
we remain like that till
sleep took over.
“Your passport is
ready, we are leaving
as soon as possible.”
Samuel said as soon
as we step in the
Police HQ.
“Samuel I need to talk
to the Chief Security
inspector in England
please.”
“Ok bro.” He dialed
the number and hand
the phone over to
me.
At the third ring he
received the call.
“Hello this is Daniel
Brooks from the
England Security
Force, who am I
speaking with?.”
“Hello this is Charles
James, FBI Detective
Agent in Nigeria base,
please a crime was
committed in
Manchester
yesterday.”
“Yes exactly, we are
standing in front of
the apartment now,
we got a call that
similar bodies were
found in this state.”
“Yes and I’m the
Detective in charge
of the case, please
send a message to
the airports in
England, nobody
come in and nobody
go out from England,
there is a probability
that the killer is still
in England.” I
explained.
“Hmm, you are right Mr
James when are you
going to arrive in
England to
investigate the body.”
“Since it’s a Six
hours flight I will get
to England by 06:12,
that’s if the weather
is friendly.”
“Ok Mr James we are
expecting you.”
“Thanks Mr Brooks.”
I turn to Samuel and
said. “Let’s head to
England.”
We finally got to
Manchester in
England around 07:11
and we got to
Sophia’s apartment.
I met Mr Brooks and
other England
officers there.
“Nice meeting you Mr
Brooks.” I shook the
white man.
“And you too Mr
James, you should go
up there and
investigate the body.”
“Ok thanks Mr
Brooks.”
Samuel and I got in
Sophia apartment and
as soon as we got in
I noticed something,
the room was
scattered.
“I think Sophia got in
a fight with our killer.”
I said. “Let’s go see
the body.”
We got in Sophia’s
bathroom and saw
her corpse lying on
the floor.
The towel she was
tying around her
waist loose lightly
exposing her breast.
“Well let’s……….” I was
saying when I
stopped.
My face turn white
with fear as I read
what was written on
the white tiles wall, it
was written in red
paints
NEXT—— RACHEL
CHARLES……….my wife.
