Underwood

THE OFFICE OF RONALD UNDERWOOD, ATTORNEY AT LAW!
 

"Holy Crap!  That Bomb did the trick...It totally destroyed this office." said a CSI man ,snapping photos of the office.

"The Fire Department just got the last of the flames out." said another CSI guy.

"There is a body in here, look!" said another CSI man...

A badly charred body lie in the corner.

"It's so badly burned and charred it's hardly identifiable."said Deputy Coroner, Dr. Marcy Martin.

Dr. Hazel Baylor went into the badly charred pants pocket....

"It says he's Ronald Underwood...He's an Attorney or rather was one....He's burned beyond recognition...  We'd better check his dental records.." said Deputy Coroner, Dr. Hazel Baylor.

The entire office was completely destroyed...It had been a powerful explosive...

Lt. Tragg walked in ,flanked by four uniformed officers..

"Holy crap, what happened here?" he asked.

"A Bomb Lieutenant...a small, but very powerful bomb..Somebody placed it here and it went off, killing this poor sap.." said a CSI man..

''Who was the dead guy?" asked Lt. Tragg...

"He was a lawyer...His name is Ronald Underwood..We got that information from his wallet...See, his drivers license, his Bar association card...It's a wonder they weren't singed in the explosion..."said another Detective.

"We are going to treat this as a Targeted Homicide...Get his body out of here..My God!! He's burned beyond recognition..."said Lt. Tragg..

The charred remains of Ronald Underwood was put in a bodybag and strapped to a gurney and wheeled out of his now destroyed 23rd floor office...

And at our Office /Duplex-

We were all sitting in our conference room the next morning talking.....

"Well I suppose you have all heard... Ronald Underwood was killed last night in an office explosion.

It seems someone set off a bomb in his office that completely destroyed everything and everyone in it."said Olivia.

"Good Riddance..If I had just waited, I wouldn't even have needed your help Mr. Donnie Ray."said an ecstatic Anita.

 

"Still, there is the matter of his safe deposit box and what might be in it. The Police will probably be searching for it now and I can't get close to it." I said.

"Or maybe there is nothing at all. We don't even know if a safe deposit box even exists..And at any rate..Mr. Underwood won' t be going to it anytime soon."laughed Beverly.

"That's for sure..All of his really incriminating evidence against Anita and anybody else was gone before his office got incinerated."said Nelson.

"That's for sure."said Josie.

"All's well that ends well." said Bresha, smiling.

"Ice Tea anyone?" said Alfreda, smiling..

As she poured us a glass of Ice tea.

II-

NIGHTFALL!

.

Olivia was at her laptop, looking up the now deceased Ronald Underwood.

"He was trying to get Cecil Brown off the ticket....I imagine this group wanted to run their own candidate.." said Olivia.

"And you know they will never admit to that.. and they'll say they had no idea of his activities." I said.

"You're right...It's a dirty business ,politics...The average person has no idea how much money changes hands and the dirty deals that go down behind closed doors." said Olivia.

''Speaking of behind closed doors..how about me and you conducting some business behind closed doors?" I whispered.

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!! UMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" Olivia cooed.

Olivia's kisses were as soft as melting butter....Her kisses turned me on as much as anything else about her...It always did...

"Ouuuuuuuuuu husband." she cooed softly...

We undressed each other rapidly as we continued kissing....

I unsnapped her beautiful bra..

and slipped her matching panties down..

I spread her legs open and entered her again......

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU WOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! YOU'RE SO HARD!!

SOOOOOOO BIG!!! UMMMMMM!" she moaned..

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH GIRRRRRL! " I cried out loud

She wrapped her legs around me so she could take all of me in and I continued....as she moaned and groaned...We slowed it down some and got into a slow rhythm...

"Ouuuuu,ummmmm, I love you so much Donnie Ray." she moaned.. as I humped her over the bed...

"I love you too Olivia...LAWDDDDDDD knows I do....OHHHHHHH GIRRRRRRL!"I moaned..nearly out of breath as we continued to make sweet love...

  EIGHT TO NINE HOURS of sweet and intense lovemaking went by....

She laughed and then tossed her head back...moaning softly...Her body quivering softly....Her breathing getting heavy...

"Ohhhhh...Ohhh my god Donnie Ray...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.."she moaned...

"Ouuuuuuu...Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Olivia....Ohhh my goddd.."I moaned as she moved up and down on me...

TWO MORE HOURS of sweet lovemaking followed...We were both enjoying ourselves immensely.....

Olivia riding me softly and slowly and me nearly losing my mind....

 Olivia was sweating profusely and laughing one minute and crying the next....She began to climax slowly,intensely...her body shaking and she smiling the sweetest smile I had ever seen....

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....Donnie Ray baby, we have  to get some sleep, tonight! .Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuu Yessssssssssssss..." she said as she moved up and down and kissed me softly..


"I know baby.Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my godd!"I said..


"So we need to get to sleep soon..." she said..


ANOTHER HOUR slipped by and I began to cum like a river...


"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..."I moaned, shaking.....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuu,That's my guy..ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...That's my guyyyyyyy" she moaned as she herself began to climax...She held me tightly and continued to kiss me as she came and came hard...

 She kissed me softly as I continued to cum like a river....

"I am so grateful for you Donnie Ray..." she said, as tears ran down her face....

''I'm grateful for you too, Olivia." I said as she lie on top of me and softly drifted off to sleep..

Beverly and Nelson were standing in the middle of the floor kissing passionately....

"OUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND!" she cooed.

"HONEY BUN!" he moaned.

"You lovvvvve getting me naked don't you?" laughed Beverly....

"More than anything in the world..You've got a fantastic body...I have always thought so..." laughed Nelson.....

"Why thank youuuuuu!" said Beverly, smiling...

Nelson was gentle with Beverly.....He softly kissed her navel and her breasts and her eyelids and her earlobes and eventually worked his way to her sweet lips...Her body was trembling something fierce...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUU...UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...." she moaned.... her head turned from side to side...tears streamed down her face.....she was having an embarrassingly quick orgasm....

Nelson entered her softly and gently and began to stroke her softly and slowly....She moaned and put her arms around his neck and drew him closer to her..She wrapped her legs around his waste and they began to move in a slow, yet deliberate rhythm for quite some time...She held him tight as if she never wanted to let go...She was so soft...so moist and smelled so good...Nelson was losing his mind slowly....while continuing to stroke her masterfully....Beverly's body began to tremble something crazy...

, her head turned from side to side...tears streamed down her face.....

"NELSON....NELSON...I'M ABOUT TO LOSE MY MINNNND!" Beverly yelled...

"I'm losin mine...ohhhhhhhhhhhh..AWWWWWWWWWWWW LAWWWD!" he yelled..stroking her masterfully...

 Once again...her body began to tremble something crazy... , her head turned from side to side...tears streamed down her face.....she was having another orgasm....

Nelson and Beverly made sweet and slow passionate and intense love for EIGHT TO NINE HOURS straight.... She felt as though she was climaxing several times....then in a huge wave....Nelson climaxed furiously and hard....not yelling , but shaking mightily.....then taking a deep breath and collapsing on top of Beverly....drenched in sweat....

She continued to kiss him.....

He surprisingly felt himself getting hard again...and began to move slowly inside and out of her....

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM! OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU WEEEEEEEE! NELSONNN!" Beverly screamed....

She straddled him and began to ride him....

 They made sweet love for at least another TWO HOURS AND A HALF!...Beverly could see how much Nelson was thoroughly enjoying this experience....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...I'm cumming...I'm cumming..Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" she said and began to shake and gyrate and turn her head from side to side....Crying like a little girl and sweating profusely....She couldn't believe how good she was feeling at the moment..

He began cumming like a gusher....and shaking....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he moaned...


"Oh yes Nelson..Yes....Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...niceeee...ummmmm." she moaned, kissing him as he continued to cum like a gusher...

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm!" she moaned....

Nelson as usual wrapped his arms around Beverly as she cuddled up under his arms and they both drifted off to sleep.

The Four of us had no idea that the "Fun" was about to start.

III-

We were having breakfast the next morning.... 

''Well I guess you're going home today huh Anita?" said Olivia.

"Yes, it looks like my little nightmare is over..  I don't mean to speak ill of the dead..but I'm glad that blackmailing weasel is dead."said Anita Brown.

 

"Lt. Tragg was on TV early this morning...He said the Philadelphia Police are working closely with the ATF to identify the bomber and possible co-conspirators."I said.

"If that clod is running the case ,it'll never get solved." laughed Anita.

Beverly spit her orange juice out,laughing...

"Stopppppp!" she said. "Oh Yeah Anita , Saturday, we are having our rooftop party...I'll give you the address...You're invited... If you come, bring your husband, not your boyfriend..." she said.

"Awww Bev, you got jokes. How Bout I bring Neither?  I'm no longer seeing that young man and my husband will just be getting back from San-Francisco...He aint goin nowhere...but me?  I'll be there." she said.

"It'll be a good time...and there will be more people at this than the last one." said Nelson, smiling.

"I'm looking forward to it...This has been such a relaxing period... No big cases for anyone."said Josie.

"Seems like we have a flurry of big cases and then a lull...a few weeks where there is nothing."said Bresha.

"Enjoy it while you can." said Alfreda.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON-

We all met at The apartment complex where Nina, Carlos, Lee and Matthew lived and joined them on the rooftop of their building for the second Rooftop party of the Summer.

We hired a DJ for this one...A First..... 

"This is beautiful, I love it." beamed Olivia.

 

"What's good about this is we managed to get so many people here...All of our people, Sissy and her detectives." I said, smiling , while sipping a beer and munching on a burger,.

"Out of all the Rooftop Parties we had up here...This has got to be the best..."said Beverly.

""Yeah, D.J's ,plenty of food and more people than before. I love it."said Nelson.

"Wow!  A lot of people are dancing."said Josie.

"And there aren't stuffy people in this building who will complain to the cops."said Paris.

"That's good because I plan to really turn up!" said Bresha..

"Ohh Boy..." laughed her husband, Tony..

Alfreda and Rockland were commanding the dance floor.... 

 "Come on, let's dance." said Yvette, taking her husband by the hand.

Gary put his beer down and joined his wife on the dance floor..

Keith, Bee Bee, Sofia and Kahlil were already on the dance floor dancing up a storm...

"Of all of the rooftop parties we had up here, I gotta say this is the very best.." said Keith Jones

"Yes it is...We never had a D.J. before." said Bee Bee.

"Or three grills running." said Sofia.

"Yeah, plenty of Hamburgers and Hot Dogs and plenty of Beer." said Kahlil.

Jade and Danny were busy eating burgers and hot dogs and watching everybody dance.

"Everybody is having a good time." said Jade.

"I was at one or two of these when you used to live across the street...This is by far the best." said Danny Ho.

Virginia and Jetty were actually on the floor dancing.

"I wish we had thrown one of these shin digs when I lived here." said Virginia.

"Yeah, that would have been fun." said Jetty.

So was Carlos and Nina

"WOUUUUUUUUU THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!" laughed Nina.

."Our second one of the summer." said Carlos.

Lee and Matthew were sitting at a table eating Hot Dogs and Burgers and Drinking Beers..

"Between going to Nelson's Beach House two weekends ago and now this, I havenm't had this much fun in my life." said Lee.

"Me neither" said her boyfriend, Matthew.

"The Party can start....I'm here!" said Anita,.

Jazzy, Dabnis,Kayla, Ray, Jessica, Chip,Karen, B.L. Natalie , David, Brooke ,Sean and Zoey and Lem Renee and Tyrell were all sitting together, eating, drinking and talking...and enjoying the music.

 

"Heyyyyyyy Girl, Come on over , grab a seat." said Jazzy.
 

"Grab a plate and grab a dog and a Burger." said Dabnis.

"Grab a beer too!" said Jazzy.

"Rolling solo tonight?" joked Kayla's husband, Ray.

"That way I stay out of trouble." said Anita.

"Amen to that." said Jessica.

"The More the merrier" said Chip...

"Oh My God ,this is sooo much fun, the music, the food, dancing." said Karen.

"We shoulda been hanging with these guys a long time ago.said B.L.

"So Keith, Bee Bee, Kahlil, Sofia, Jade and Virginia all lived here before...These are nice apartments in here."said Natalie.

"It wasn't at the same time, Keith, Bee Bee, Sofia ,Kahlil and Jade all lived here and they had these rooftop parties a couple of times they told me... Virginia lived here after they had all got married and moved to where they live now.."said David.

"With Nina, Carlos, Lee and Matthew living here now, we have another connection to this place...It's great." said Brooke.

"What's greater is that they haven't rented out any rooms on the floor below us...So the noise isn't bothering the other residents."said Sean.

"Well it's not like we do this every week..."said Zoey...

"She's such a lawyer.....Renee, you and Olivia , Beverly, Kayla and Alfreda did a good job organizing this, getting the D.J. and all of the food." said Lem.

"Thank you...It was a lot of work...I have less work to do in our law office, believe it or not."said Renee.

"I told her if she ever retires from this law thing ,she can be an event planner."laughed her husband, Tyrell.

In addition to all of us.. Sissy Van Buren and her detectives joined us, just as they had at the Beach.

We were glad they were there.

"This is so relaxing and so much fun...Thank you for inviting all of us Olivia."said Sissy.

"Oh No problem...I told you, We want to do more things with you guys when we can"said Olivia.

"I see the Mayor's wife, Anita Brown is here."said Carlotta.

"Well at least she's not in bed with some man.."laughed Tyriq.

"Hey isn't Lt. Tragg supposed to be working with us on that explosion that killed that lawyer last week.?" asked Jimmy.

"Well not us....He deosn't want any other detectives cramping his style...but the Deputy of Operations and Captain Cantrell ordered him to work with the ATF on it." said Sirena.

"Sharon said they have seen him two times...They are basically investigating the nature of the bomb and trying to find out who made it and where it came from. "said Hop.

"I'm glad that's not my investigation...They may never find that out."said Duke.

"Don't be so sure...They have had success before."said Angie.

"We are looking at who made the bomb,who bought pieces for it and who may have financed it..

We are doing a far more thorough investigation without Lt. Tragg's help." said Sharon.

"I wonder what angle he's working?" pondered ADA Keith Wallace.

"Probably the wrong one " said Sissy's husband, Eddie C.

Hazel cracked up laughing.

There was three grills with plenty of Burgers and Dogs, manned by some guys from Olivia and Alfreda's catering company.

And plenty of beers on Ice...

The Party went on..Well past 1:00 AM...Early Sunday Morning.

Lt. Tragg arrived with a Tactical team.....

He looked around... He saw Grills still running, saw the D.J. and all of the beer, plus a number of his detectives  and his "favorite people" Us lawyers..

"Well...Well...Wellllll look what we have here....A Rooftop Party......." I hope all of you good folks won't be driving after all of this drinking and partying tonight." he said.

"We all live walking distance from here, but you know that...and all of my people will be transported by bus back to our homes...Why are you here anyway?" asked Olivia, incensed by his presence..

"I have an arrest warrant for Mrs. Anita Brown, Conspiracy to Commit Murder in the death of one Ronald Underwood.." he said..

"WHAT? you're absolutely out of your mind!" said Anita.

"How did you come to this conclusion?" said Sharon Hopkins, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI/ATF, who was also investigating the case....

"That will be made known to you Monday Morning at the News Conference... Anita Brown you have the right to remain silent...Any and Everything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law, You have a right to an attorney....If you can't afford one, which is doubtful, all these attorneys present here tonight...one will be provided for you....Do you understand these rights as I am reading them to you?" he asked.

"You lunkhead.....My Husband will have your badge for this." said Anita...

"Think so huh?" he smirked..."Take her away boys.....Good Night Olivia, Everybody! Remember,,,,,Drink responsibly!" he said with a sarcastic smirk  as they left....

"OUUUUUUU SOMETIMES I JUST DESPISE THAT MANNNN!" said an angry Olivia.

"Nobody can clear a party out like he can."said Detective Jimmy Barlow.

"You aint never lied." said Beverly , who watched as everybody began to pour out of the party...What had been an extraordinary good time had suddenly turned sour. 

IV-

SUNDAY MORNING!

"We took a good hard look into the dead guy." explained Lt. Tragg to Anita Brown....

His Laptop was in front of her......

Family moved to Philadelphia when he was 10.

Law Clerk for Judge Michael Stevenson

Worked in private practice as an appellate litigator at the law firm Harrison & Hartison

Established his own practice-Ronald Underwood , Attorney at Law  

Also employed by Independent Political Think Tank- The Regency Concern....A Consulting Firm

"You know more about him than I do." said Anita Brown.......

"You know enough and WE KNOW that you two met at a Tony rooftop restaurant a week or two ago...

"And he presented you with a Zip Drive and some pretty naughty photos of you and another man, 

a Thomas White....We know from theestalishment that you came back and you asked for film footage of the meeting and that you found the footage, checked around and found out his name and where he worked.

After that him and his entire office blew up.....We can't find the zip drives he had and his laptops were totally destroyed...So it appeared all of your problems were over, except he had a Safe Deposit Box..

and in it, we found these....

"That's you and Mr. Thomas White

at that trendy new restaurant , Gazpachos..

Martini's huh?

and the kill shot.....You and Mr. White kissing...

Really kissing." he said with almost adolescent glee.

Anita looked at the photos....These were taken their first night out, before they went down the shore...

These were tame compared to what Ronald Underwood had shown her...the very X rated Hotel pictures of her and Thomas in the throes of sexual passion....This was R rated , even PG compared to that..

"I'm no fool....I know that he probably had far more damaging photos and video of you and Mr. White...but that well placed bomb destroyed all of that forever....

See I dug deep into this guy...He was an Attorney and operative of an Independent Political Think Tank- The Regency Concern....A Consulting Firm.. A right Wing Think tank that sponser a number of political candidates who think their way...They spend a lot of money, grease a lot of palms to get the desired results in campaigns...Law Enforcement has been looking into their shady activities for years...I suspect he wanted you to persuade your husband to get off the ticket in favor of their younger and more conservative candidate or else your husband and possibly the media would get an eye full of you and Mr. White.. , which would be a major scandal...Worse than your last one a few years back... And as a result...You hired someone to place a bomb in his office and thus end all of your problems... I gotta hand it to you...It was brilliant...buttttttt not that brilliant.. There were loose ends..Too many loose ends." he said.

Anita Brown was an Attorney...She just nodded her head.

"Great Story...You should write for Television Columbo." she said and smirked...Saying Nothing else.

"PEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOUUUUUUUU! This room smells like hell....You need to mop these floors, empty these trash cans and get some air freshner in here." she said as cool as a cucumber.

"BEING INSOLENT IS NOT GOING TO HELP YOU ANITA!!! WE'VE GOT YOU COLD ON THIS ONE!" snarled Lt. Tragg.

"You've got nothing....You've got a story that sounds like it's out of "Law and Order" and no proof...No proof at all." she snarled..

"I've got proof that once again you've been unfaithful to your husband, The Mayor."snorted Lt. Tragg.

"How Much time will I get for that?" she laughed defiantly... 

"Are you going to charge her? Are you really going to make a case with this weak crap?" said Olivia, who wasn't trying to hide her anger.

"Olivia, I figured either you or Vettie would be down here...To Answer your question...Yes I intend to charge her." he said.

 

"You've got little to no proof.."I said.

"Oh I've got proof ." he said and he showed us the photos he found in Ronald Underwood's safe deposit box

Beverly laughed out loud...

"You're kidding right? This is all you got?" she said. If this wall they had found in that Safe deposit box, they really didn't have much.These were tame compared to what Ronald Underwood had shown Anita...the very X rated Hotel pictures of her and Thomas in the throes of sexual passion....This was R rated , even PG compared to that..

"Come on Lieutenant...This is weak, even for you."said Nelson.

"They met at that Rooftop French Restaurant....He presented her with a Zip Drive and A Laptop with lurid videos and lurid photos...He was Blackmailing her...He wanted her to persuade her husband to drop out of the mayors race."said Lt. Tragg.

"So where are the lurid photos? Where are these videos?" asked Josie, knowing that we had intercepted them and destroyed them a day before the explosion..

"You don't have them do you? All you have is these tame photos of two people having drinks and the guy taking things a little too far...Kissing her...This is a whole lot of nothing." said Bresha.

"We'll find more evidence....We are still cleaning up that office." said Lt. Tragg..

I showed him a photo of the office of Ronald Underwood's torched office.

"Good Luck with that." I said. "I knew that his Zip drives and written files were incinerated and his laptops destroyed beyond measure..Not that anything would be found on them anyway.

"Sit Tight Anita...We'll have you out of here."said Olivia.

"Thanks Olivia, Beverly, everybody...and thanks for a fabulous rooftop party...I loved it."said Anita

as we left...

Lt. Tragg was as red as a beat....Watching us as we left.
