Walking down along the streets of Metro City and strutting in her black, skin tight outfit, Katelynn hummed as a few men gave her cat whistles, her eyes scanning for whom. Oh she was soaking up the attention, giving them a few winks and a good view of what her suit was showing off but it was merely a distraction.
She had a mission and another to deny.
Taking a stop outside the apartment complex, Katelynn gazed up at the building and shielded her eyes from the sun. Oh what fun this was going to be. She just wasn’t sure if she should pretend like she had with Grace or just get it all over with.
Having good presentation seemed best. As she unlocked the door and tossed the keys, she kicked the door open with a flourish and cried out, “Honey I’m hooooome~”
A heartbeat later, a wide-eyed and frantic Jack was racing into the front room. “Katelynn?! Katelynn are you all right? Where were you?!”
Yesterday, his fiancee had told him she would be going out for an hour or so after work, to see if she could find any clues about what might have happened to Gracelyn. Jack had been okay with that; he wanted to find their friend too, and Katelynn had promised that if she turned up anything dangerous, she would leave and get help.
So when she hadn’t come back in an hour, hadn’t come back at all that evening, and hadn’t even called to say what was happening, he had been badly frightened. A dark, suspicious part of his mind had wondered if she was lying to him again, the way she used to before he left for New York, when she would sneak out on dangerous missions and end up just getting herself in trouble. She’d been so good since he came back, more careful and open and honest – surely she wouldn’t hurt him like that again?
He blinked as he saw the tight black outfit. While he didn’t deny that she looked very nice in it, it raised all kinds of questions. “L-love, what’s going on? Where were you last night?"
