Chapter 5 5

She entered the club with Alexa.

It's been ages since she went clubbing and hangout with friends.

She could remember vividly when she went clubbing, which was her last day in college with her friends and how she lost her virginity to a cute guy in England.

The memory seems so new like it happened yesterday, with his cute blue eyeballs staring at her and how his soft lips massaged hers.

That night was a night to remember for Dinah, and entering a whole new different club again, Dinah secretly wished to meet him again.

As she walked with Alexa to meet with Mr. Ethan in the club, she got to see new faces.

"You made it." Mr. Ethan shouted out of nowhere and Dinah forced out a smile as he shook hands with her.

"Here, this is Tristan Coker, an undercover agent, currently investigating the fraudster politician." He introduced a guy to her.

" Hi, " The guy greeted her and she muttered to him.

"Here is Tabitha, she is in charge of undercover cop information and technology. You better don't get on her bad side. " Mr. Ethan says with a small laugh and Dinah find that irritating.

She glanced at the Tabitha who just sipped her alcohol, she didn't bother in welcoming her; Dinah ignored her, like she does not care.

The introduction went on and on till it was now her turn to introduce herself.

Dinah simply told them her name and said it was nice meeting them before having her seat beside Alexa who was in the middle of her and Lora.

The club started getting lively as they all started irrelevant talking and drinking in the lounge till Mr. Ethan urged everyone to stand and dance.

As she had thought, Tabitha refused the offer to show how cold and disobedient she was.

Dinah only excused herself since she is finding the get-together boring as she went to sit on the barstool with the cup of alcohol in hand.

As she takes a sip she looks around the club which was filled already with people drinking their souls off and dancing.

She breathed out a sigh as she gulp the alcohol before ordering for another cup.

About taking the third round sipping, the cup was collected by some sort of stranger as Dinah looked in disbelief.

"Who are you?" She glanced at the guy who was bedside her.

She didn't realize how drunk she had become as she barely opened her eyes, she saw him smirk.

"You are drunk." Jared tell dropping the cup to the counter.

" Just give it back." Dinah says trying to take the cup but he stops her by holding her hand.

"Tell me, do you wanna get laid or get wasted." Jared say scornfully

" Shut the fuck, you don't wanna know who I'm." Dinah says drunk as she yawns.

" Oh really. " Jared says as he gives back the cup of alcohol to her and Dinah gulps it all down her throat.

"You want more?" Jared asked, staring at her but she didn't reply.

" Tell me, who? Are. You?" Dinah asks, picking her words.

" Your England boyfriend." Jared answered and Dinah laugh hysterically

" The cute one?" She question,

"What do you think?" Jared asked back as he stroked her hair. "Let me do you a favor, what's your address? You're drunk to the core."

" Wanna rob me? " Dinah whisper

"Should I." He says as he carries her, but drunk Dinah didn't realize it as she blurted out her address and Jared carried her out of the club.

"Why do you smell so good?" Dinah mutters and Jared scoffs as he walks to where Pascal had parked his car.

He dropped Dinah in the backseat, making her lye as he shut the door and entered the driver's seat.

He typed the address on the map, as he drove into the night with Dinah spouting whatever a drunk lady could.

.

She was the lady of two years before he met Veronica.

That night, he was depressed and powerless.

He could remember that day to be the day Franklin took the position of the leader of the Boston gang and how he tried to ruin him.

He went to the underground club that night to cool off. He didn't have any plans on getting laid, but when he met with her amber eyes, he felt himself softened and wished to have her at once.

Then, she seems young and naive, partying with her friends as he walks towards her direction.

.

Jared drive down the alley as he halt the car

He peeped through the window, confused about where she lives precisely.

"Hi mister, how may I help you." A woman who was passing by asked and Jared hesitated before asking her where Dinah lives and the woman directed her apartment to be the rooftop.

Jared appreciated her and watched as she left before alighting from the car.

He opened the passenger's seat door as he carried Dinah.

She was fast asleep already, he could tell with her soft snore.

He scoffed as he began walking to the staircase leading to the rooftop.

He climbed on it, seeing the apartment on the rooftop as he walked closer.

He dips his hand into her pocket, bringing out a key which he uses to unlock the door.

As he unlocked it, he switched on the light as he walked straight to a door which he assumed to be her room.

He lay her on the bed as he breathed out a sigh. Suddenly, she grabs him by the collar, making him fall on her.

"Don't go." She mutters, "don't leave me alone." She added still sleeping as Jared smile staring at her.

He gently patted her on the cheek as he stayed that way for over a minute till she released him.

He smiles again as he stands up, he smirks before walking away.

He shut the door as he walked down the stairs to his car.

His phone rings as he enters the car, he glances at it seeing the missed call from Pascal before picking it up.

"Sir, hope I'm not interrupting? I didn't see you--"

" What's it Pas? " Jared ask igniting the engine,

" Uh... I would not be coming--"

"Go gentle on the bitch, " Jared interrupted." You are permitted. " He added.

He heard Pascal giggle as he scoff before hanging up

He steered the wheels before driving.

As he turned to the road, another call came in.

He glanced at the ID seeing it was his brother, Franklin.

He took his earpiece, putting it on as he picked it up.

"How may I help you?" He asked rudely

"Uhm... Jared" He heard Franklin stuttering

" Say the fuck" He said, knowing what he was about saying

"Can we meet?" Franklin forced out the words from the phone

Jared smirk." Tomorrow, four pm at Sebastian's lounge." He tell and hung up immediately,

" Son of bitch."

The next morning came with a less shining sun as the alarm rang loudly.

Dinah yawns, tossing around the bed as she uses her hand in stopping the ringing alarm.

"Arrgh " Dinah groans using her palm to touch her forehead.

She was feeling a terrible headache as she cussed at what she might have drank that past night, slowly getting up from the bed to prepare for the new day.

"Who brought me home?" She threw the question at herself as she staggered to the bathroom.

She switches on the faucet as she rinses her face multiple times.

Dinah glances at the mirror as the memory of the past night replayed.

"Oops" She gasped, widening her eyes as different thoughts kept flowing in.

She can't remember the guy vividly because she was drunk but she surely remembers his eyes.

Blue with long curly lashes and his smell, he smelled like a Cinnamon, and that reminded her of the night she lost her virginity as her subconscious began questioning her like was he the one who brought her home? Hope nothing happened.

Dinah was going crazy at this sudden thought as she shouts "Shits!" With gritted teeth.

---

"What conclusion have you made?" The inspector general ask August

"Since she has suspected the Sebastian's, and they hold a massive criminal record, we would be going for them first." August informed

" Great. I want no mistakes, the upper ones are expecting more of your reports, so for the meantime we would be transferring the second case to the state station." The inspector general say and August nod

" Sir." An officer entered saluting. "We would like to request for a search warrant on the case we are working on. " The officer said and the general nod in agreement

" Well-done. I will contact the prosecutor's office soon. Go prepare your squad. " He said and the officer saluted before walking away.

" You can go ahead with the investigation." He said to August who smiled a bit before walking away after saluting.

As soon as August walked out of his office he dialed a number on his phone as he put it to his ear.

"Mrs Boston, shall we meet today instead?" He asked.

---

" Good Morning. " Dinah greeted as she entered the office while some replied to her.

She walked to her desk, dropping her bag on it as she took her seat.

She doesn't feel like coming to work, but it was her second day working so she can't take a day off.

She rests her head on the desk as she sighs feeling drowsy.

"Miss Dinah" She heard Mr. Ethan call her as she hummed angrily before raising up her head to look at him as he walked towards her with Alexa.

"Good morning Sir." Dinah forced out the words wishing for him to disappear

"Morning." Mr. Ethan replied as he stretched out a file to her and she collected it while he put his hand inside his pocket.

"Go through it, it was transferred early this morning. You would be covering the case. " He informed Dinah , looking surprised.

" It's your first case, so you better give it a short time and diligently deal with it." He say as he continued.

" Alexa here would be your co-worker, just like your assistant. You've met with Tabitha, you can ask her to get you informed and updated about whatever you may need. I would be sending the schedule of your operations to Alexa, if you wish to reschedule it, let me know first. You know the rules and regulations, terms and conditions. Do have a good day. " Mr. Ethan says like the boss he was as he walks away and Dinah look rather surprised.

She had been told he isn't as friendly as he looks.

"Yes!" Dinah whispers, happy that she finally got a job to do.

"Let's do this." Alexa says stretching out her hands for a handshake and Dinah takes it.

"I will be buying lunch." Dinah wink and Alexa smile gratefully.

" I will send you something in your mail soon." She added and Alexa nodded before walking away.

Dinah sat back as she opened the file.

Surprisingly, her first case would be a murder case and she was having this feeling that it might be related to her.

Perhaps her parent murder case is now in her

hand.

The file wasn't containing the victim name, since she would be covering it and wouldn't need any questioning from victim

The date was the same day she lost her parent which made her think luck was on her side for giving her the opportunity to avenge her parent death

She looked further to know who the main suspect was as she sees the name

Jared!

Dinah breathed in as she send a message to Alexa.

---

"You would be meeting Franklin?" Pascal questioned worriedly.

" Don't be such a crybaby, what's the big deal with meeting that dick." Jared cussed as he wore his jacket." I was cautious enough to make him come see me in the lounge. " He added

" What if he bribes those assholes? You know they hate you and would do anything to get rid of you! " Pascal nagged

" You make me wanna punch you. I'm not a baby who would fall into a trap or do something out of plan. " Jared say as he spray perfume around himself

"Want me to come along?" Pascal asked

"You don't need to," Jared says as he walks out of his room.

" How was your night with your new found slut?" Jared asks, switching the topic.

" I would rather come along than seeing you go alone. " Pascal say ignoring Jared question as he walk with him climbing down the stairs

"You should just stay back," Jared said but Pascal insisted.

" I'm gonna get you fired. " Jared threatened jokingly

"I don't care, I have no good grudge about you going alone. Pascal replied as he entered the car with Jared sitting beside him.

Pascal brought the engine back to life before driving out of the compound.
