Good afternoon, this is Kadey Huston for KD-AW news—Today’s headline—Body found in Eaton Park West.

The victim, a thirty-two-year-old male, which sources close to KD-AW have confirmed is that of Naval officer- Senior Chief Patrick Munroe.

A spokesperson with the US Navy wouldn’t confirm, but sources close to the officer informed us that he was a highly decorated Navy Seal who was believed to have been recently relieved of duty after what’s being cited as ‘unacceptable conduct.’

Detectives say they are ruling out suicide, stating lacerations found across the victim’s throat could not have been self-inflicted. At this stage, they are looking into connections with a murder three months ago—linked to a drug-related incident—the victim also sustaining similar ‘slash-like’ wounds. Munroe’s body was found late this afternoon by joggers and initial reports show the victim’s cell was missing—sparking debate once again about the rise in cell phone robbery. Anyone finding a cell in the local area is asked to call—1-800-555…

“What the fuck?” Digby’s brow creases in shock as he stares at Zak. “What the hell happened?”

“I have no idea?” Zak shrugs. “I mean… this wasn’t you, right? Diggs, tell me you didn’t do this?”

“No.Hell no! I mean, I wanted to, but no. I’ve been here all day. Well, except when I went to the store to get eggs. I mean, yeah sure it’s no loss but… no, I didn’t have the satisfaction of doin’ it.”

“Okay, that’s good. Look, I need to ditch that phone. I’ll lose it somewhere on the base. When they pull his records, it’ll show it pinged off some cell towers around here and so it’ll be more believable if it’s found on the base, and that way no one will link it back to us. Also, getting the authority to search here should slow them down.”

“Okay, yeah, do what you need. I’ll leave it with you, and I’ll speak to Darius about…” He swings around as Kat appears in the hallway naked and ready for the bath she’s prepared them.

“Ryan are you coming to the…shit.” her voice trails off seeing Zak and Bud stood staring at her. “Oh hell! You know…” She covers her breasts with her arm, embarrassed. “I’ll just wait… in the bathroom.” She sighs, hastily disappearing.

“Hey…” Zak grins. Chewing on his gum, he smiles. “You know… you don’t have to leave, not on my account.” He tips his head, the image of her naked ass burned in his brain. “Hell-fire… Diggs, you were right about her; she isfit-as-fuck!You sure she’s not up for a threesome?”

Digby smacks him hard in the chest with his fist. “Put your fuckin’ eyes away! I told you, you need to go. I’ll deal with this; you need to go clean up that…other thing. Just leave her to me—you couldn’t handle her anyway,” he sneers angrily.

“Whoa… it’s just a joke, man. But I won’t say no if she offers.” He smiles, goading him. “Okay yeah, sure thing, we’re goin’. So, are you gonna tell her, about Munroe?”

Digby growls, his cock’s hard, and it’s now overruling any hope of serious thought. “No, not now. I’ve got other more pressing things I need totalkto herabout.” He grins. “Hey c’mon, it’s a bonus, right? Someone’s taken the trash out, it’s saved us doin’ it. Her knowing right now it’s not gonna change anything. I’ll tell her later.”

“Uh, what if she sees the uh… news?” Bud frowns.

“Trust me Bud, she’s not gonna see any damn news—at least not for the next hour.” He smiles.

“Alright then, we’ll leave you to it, but we are still goin’ out tonight, right?” Zak frowns, concerned.

“Hell yeah! Now we’ve got even more to celebrate. Kat made the team, we’re back on operational duty, that asshole is toast, and… I’m about to get laid. Yeah, things couldn’t be better.”

“Hey, sorry ‘bout that.”

“You know they need to learn to knock and wait. They can’t just keep walking in like that.”

“Yeah, I’ve told them, but I’ll make sure it registers.”

“Good. So, what did they want?”

“Nothing, um, just Zak… he was checking the time for the cabs.”

“And he couldn’t do that on the phone?”

“I… I switched it off cos we were, you know, we were… about to get busy.”

“Oh yeah, so we were.” She has this lewd glint in her eyes. Dropping her towel, she smiles teasingly.

Closing the door, he can’t help but smile as he looks at her naked body. His cock hardens, wedging itself against the fabric of his pants, making him groan. “Fuck…” he growls, watching as Kat winks. Placing her hands on her breasts, she massages them, teasing him by playing with her nipples, and then without warning, she shoves him back hard against the closed bathroom door. He gasps, taking a breath. “Mmm… so, where the hell did this come from?” He frowns. “You came back really needy, and pretty fuckin’ hungry. Kat, are you okay?”

“Mm-hm… what you don’t want me like this?” She smiles coyly tipping her head.

“Hell, yeah! I want you like this… I’ll take you any damn way I can get you.”
