18 Damon waited outside Officer Bernard’s house in the darkness. A call to the department said the officer was off duty an hour ago, so Damon staked out the place. It was a risk, but he was out of options. The asshole owed him, and Damon was ready to collect the debt. A car pulled into the driveway, lights shining on the house and narrowly missing Damon’s hiding place. He needed to catch Bernard off-guard if he was going to get any information out of him. Bernard got out of the car and grabbed a small duffle bag from the backseat. He walked up the three steps to his porch and unlocked the door. He went inside and the click of the door locking behind him made Damon smile. Bernard had no clue he was there. Damon had already been inside the man’s house. Had already left a window unlocked
