Antoinette

Two days later ,Lt. Cotton walked into the squad room and stopped at our desk....When Monica and I were working a case..He usually didn't micro-manage..He would ask us from time to time what we had...but this case was different...It meant something to him and we could tell...His whole demeanor was different..

"You guys got anything?" he asked..

"Well..Nate and me found Robert Flynn's sister....It wasn't easy..but we located her and interviewed her.." said Monica.

"That would be Lucy right?" he said.

"Yeah, I take it you know her...Anyway...She told us that her brother was somewhat of a playboy and a gigolo...He lived off of women...He dated a lot of married women and or women with money...She allowed us to copy these photographs of him with lots of women...and uh...this other guy in the photo looks like you sir.."I said.

"That is me Nate...I was a young detective then...Robert Flynn and I were contemporaries..Not really friends but uh , we ran in the same circles...I uh chased my share of women back in those days.."he admitted..

Monica smiled...

"We interviewed the women...All of them are still alive, married and  well to do..They all had fond memories of Robert...None of them knew what had become of him...His vanishing was never treated as a missing persons case...Most people thought he just moved on..." said Monica.

"I didn't.."said Lt. Cotton.

''So who was she?" asked Monica..

"Who was who?" asked Lt. Cotton with that frightened dear in the headlights look...

"The woman who came between you two..." asked Monica..

He looked at Monica and then he looked at me...

"Is she like this all the time?" he asked.. He had no idea that Monica was a mutant, who could read minds... I just smiled..

"All the time...She's my little mind reader..."I joked...

Monica cracked up laughing...I put my arms around her and hugged her...Kissed her on the cheek softly...

"Good Luck to you Nate...I guess that's why she's such a good detective..very intuitive..."said Lt. Cotton ,shaking his head..

"Nate appreciates my many assets." said Monica..

Lt. Cotton looked at Monica and smiled..

"I'm sure he does! He didn't want a partner when he came to Homicide ,until he laid eyes on you and he's been smiling from ear to ear ever since...I think I know why!" he laughed..

Monica blushed a little bit.

II-

"Her name was Antoinette ...Antoinette Rodgers....I met her when I was a young Detective...

He showed us a photo of her...She looked like a very free spirited woman...She had a sexy body and she dressed well...I could see why any man would lose his mind over this woman...

"She was in a bad marriage...Her husband, Architect, Mark Rodgers was controlling and she desperately wanted out, but she was afraid to leave him...She had been with him since she had been 16 and he was 26...She was about 30 when I met her...about two years older than me...She had the same effect on me that your sister has on me now..I was enthralled with her...I did anything I could to see her...

I knew she was married..but I had to see her...We'd meet at romantic places and have a couple of drinks, talk...or have coffee and conversation...I begged her to leave him..I told her I'd protect her..But she wouldn't..He was the father of her daughter...She didn't want to leave their daughter..Aja.."said Lt. Cotton..

"The husband was abusive?" I asked..

"No..Not physically...He played mind games on her...He was obsessed with her... He was paranoid..believed she was cheating on him..She wasn't...He always left her alone with his friends..and then would walk in on them ,expecting to catch them in the bed with her..but she didn't go for the bait..At least not at first..."

"They both smoked a lot of weed and did a lot of Coke...Their entire marriage was a nightmare..I begged her to come with me..I told her I loved her..." said Lt. Cotton.

"We slipped off to a motel one afternoon and made sweet love for hours....She turned me out right then and there...I was crazy in love with her then and determined to save her from him....and then..."said Lt. Cotton..

"Robert Flynn entered the picture..."said Monica...

Lt. Cotton looked at her again...

"Yeah....They met independently of me...Robert Flynn in addition to being a casual acquaintence of mine was a friend of her husband, Mark Rodgers...He was an attractive guy....Months after our one afternoon together..They began a torrid affair...I was heartbroken...It was as if what the two of us had done had never happened... I told him that he was treading dangerous waters...That Mr.Rodgers was a very jealous man...but he said he wasn't afraid of him.."said Lt. Cotton.

"So what happened next?" I asked.

"Their affair went on for a year and a half...All I could do was watch from the sidelines...and then ..one day, Robert just dropped out of sight....Never saw him again..Not in any of his old haunts and no one knew what had become of him...or cared...and then I got the news that Antoinette had suffered a brain tumor and had died suddenly..." he said.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh wowwwwwwwwwwwww ,Did you attend the funeral??" asked Monique..

"I did and surprisingly it was closed casket...All these years I've thought that there was something kind of creepy about this whole affair..That it was too neat, Robert vanished...then she dies suddenly...It was all too neat...." said Lt. Cotton..

"Is Mark Rodgers still amongst the living?" asked Monica.

"Oh yeah...He still lives here in Philadelphia...He never remarried..He cleaned himself up and finished raising their daughter...Aja...She should be about 20 or 21 now..."said Lt. Cotton.

"We should take a look at Mr. Rodgers .." I said.

"That's what I was thinking and you should go see my sister.." said Monica..

"Yeah ,I haven't seen her in about three days..." he sighed...

"Go see her...You'll feel better." said Monica.

III-

Two hours later Lt. Cotton and Monique were back at our duplex...

"It's not everyday I take a half day Lieutenant...but I was worried about you..." said Monique...

"I'm okay baby...It's just that discovery of those bones and finding out I knew one of the victims...It's rattled me and it's brought up some old demons and feelings.."said Lt. Cotton.

"There was a woman between you and that guy wasn't it?" asked Monique..

"You and your sister always do that?" he asked smiling...

"I don't know about my sister, but I know guys and I know you....Who was she ? An old girlfriend?" asked Monique..

''A little deeper than that..." he said..

"You think the other body is her don't you?" asked Monique..

"Between me and you,Yes I do...but her HUSBAND swears that she's buried out in Westlake Cemetary..He has for ten years..."said Lt. Cotton.

"Nate and My sister will find out if that's the case...but uh...last time I checked....I was your sugar baby and I'm very much alive." whispered Monique in his ear...

"Yes lawd!" he said ,taking his coat off and his shirt and tie and pulling Monique to him and kissing her deeply and passionately...

She could feel his hard erection through his trousers...

"Ouuuuuuu, well at least you remember that much..."she joked..."Ouuuuuuu.."she replied..

He pulled her to him again..

They kissed passionately...His hands were up under her dress....He lifted her dress up over her head....

He marveled at her bra....It was beautiful..He unsnapped it and his eyes nearly rolled up in his head...


''Oh Sugar Baby...You're the one that's got my head messed up now.." he said.

She unzippered his trousers...She pulled out his huge engorged penis and just marveled at his girth... She stroked it lightly....

He followed her into the bedroom and closed the door..

He slipped out of his trousers,socks and shoes and laid in the bed with her...

He entered her warm and wet center and began moving in and out...He had never felt anyone so soft,so warm,so wet in his life....At that moment he understood why Nate was so hooked on Monica...

The bed began to squeak under their weight...The headboard slammed quietly against the wall...

Ten minutes of passionate kissing went by and both eased up and out of the embrace...

"Ohhhh Frankie...I hope I'm always the girl who has you messed up" she said...

He kissed her neck,her breasts, her lips..She moaned and kissed him passionately and they began making sweet love....The bed was squeaking like crazy.....Monique was actually embarrassed that her bed was making so much noise....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....ohhh my god....awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.."he moaned...as he continued to move in and out of her...the look on his face was one of pure joy...She smiled just knowing she was causing him so much pleasure...

One hour turned to three....They continued making sweet love...Monique had climaxed about three times already....Three hours turned to six...

....Monique began kissing the lieutenant's neck and licking it and blowing softly into his ear...and cooing...

"Do you like it baby? ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you like it?"

"YESSSSSSSSSSS....OHHHHHHHHHH YESSSSSSSSSS ,OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...OHHHHHHHHHHHHH
LAWDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!" he yelled as he exploded like a gusher..."Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!" he yelled....

He had completely lost his cool exterior...She had never seen him like this before...She thought it was funny....His body stiffened up and he shook, which actually made her climax again....her mouth opened ,but no sound came out!!!She had an orgasm like she'd never felt before....

"OUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" she cooed lightly!

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYY goddddddddddddddd!" he moaned, exploding one last time..

She stared at him after he pulled out...

"Feel better?" she asked...

He kissed her...

"Much better Sugar Baby!" he said.

IV-

 Detective Kylie White walked over to our desk....She was in a happy mood...

"Hey girlie...Look at you....You're glowing..."said Monica..

''I'm just happy,that's all..." she laughed..

"You had some good freaky sneaky last night didn't you?" asked Monica..

"Damn ,How do you do that? It's almost like you can read my mind...Yess...I sure did.." she cooed.

Monica laughed..

"Gurlll, me too!" she said and they both looked at me and giggled....

Wally had really changed up...He was crazy about Kylie...When I saw him, she was all he talked about!

"But I'm not here just about that...I did some digging into Mark Rodgers like you asked...This is his address...He lives with his 20 year old daughter, Aja Rodgers...and check this out...Years ago...He hired a Private Investigator named Pete Peterson because he thought his wife was stepping out on him." she said showing us a photo of Private Investigator, Pete Peterson..

"Is this guy still practicing?" I asked..

"Uh no!" she said with a strange look on her face...

"Well maybe we can set up a meeting with him.." said Monica..

"Yeah , you can if you can find a medium and you feel like taking a drive to Westlake Cemetary...The man has been dead for ten years....He died the day after Robert Flynn was last seen alive and a day before Antoinette Rodgers reportedly died..." she said.

 "Murdered?" I asked..

"No, believe it or not...He had a bad ticker...and he had a massive heart attack and died suddenly...I looked at the autopsy report...Here, you can look at it yourself...Nothing funny about his death."said Kylie..

"Partner, are you thinking what I'm thinking?" asked Monica..

"I sure am...It's time to visit Mr. Rodgers..." I said.

"And his doctor..." said Monica..

"I think it's so cute the way you two finish each others sentences and are always so in sync..He's your best partner ever Mo-Mo."said Kylie..

Monica gave me a big wet kiss in the lips....

"Yes he is.." she laughed..

I blushed..

And at the morgue....

Lt. Cotton stared at the bones..

"Antoinette ,if that's you ...I intend to find out and bring to justice your murderer...I'm only doing this for you...Not him." he said..
