Chapter 9

708 Words
(X’s POV) 
I had dragged Oliver’s body into the woods and burned it no one would know. I walked back to my hideout. I stepped in my tracks that I previously made before so no one would know. 
Well another job done I said to myself kicking my boots off and shutting the door. I crossed off Oliver’s Picture with a knife. No more Oliver I said, chuckling darkly. I thought to myself was I hallucinating before when I thought I saw Audrey? No I wasn’t or maybe I was that confused me a lot. Anyway I’ll get her eventually. 
I walked over to the safe I kept in my little house. I turned the lock on the safe effortlessly doing the combination. 
Click! 
I went through all of Audrey’s stuff I had on here. But it wasn’t just her I had Millie’s, Eric’s, Tristan’s and Officer Robbin’s information. I never saw Tristan as much of a threat mainly because Audrey was my biggest target. Her parents were rich and are the reasons my parents empire crumbled all those years ago.
I wanted her money and I wanted it now. Maybe I should go spy on her. She won’t see me right? 
I put my boots back on, grabbed my coat and walked out. Closing and locking the door with a small click. With that being said I snuck off into the night. Time for another check on my precious Audrey. 
Evil laugh 
I knew where her home was and I also knew the quickest way to get there. 
After a few minutes I got there. There she was I guess she hasn’t changed much or so I thought. She was so predictable. Same old routine and same old stuff I guess. I watched her get ready for bed. 
This is easy. I'll sneak into her house like I did before. I wonder if she cleared out my things yet. Well what’s left of them at least I did sneak in a few times and steak my stuff back but that was easy. 
Finally she’s asleep, I thought. I reached in my pocket and pulled out a hairpin I kept in my pocket. I started to pick the lock and I opened it slowly. 
I tried to be as quiet as I could. The house was so dark and I couldn’t see a thing. 
Suddenly I bumped into the coffee table. Gasp! I reached over grabbing the remote before it fell on the hardwood floor. Phew that was a close one to close. Did she put this here by accident or did she know I was coming. 
Great, now I got myself paranoid. I crept around the house, the floorboard creaking under my boots. 
Creak creak! 
Oh right maybe I should take my boots off oops 
I take off my boots and hide them. I started to snatch some of my things and her things. I laughed softly. She didn’t need this stuff, she's nobody. I thought. 
After I grabbed my stuff I carefully opened the door quietly and gently set my stuff and what I grabbed of hers outside and shut the door again. 
Click! 
Now time for the hard part going upstairs and into the room that she was sleeping in. Yes I know it sounds stupid but she needed payback for what her parents did to mine years ago and how was I gonna start that you may ask by stealing some of her stuff. 
I got on my hands and knees and crawled up the stairs. I’m too old for this, I thought. I opened the door and she was asleep in bed. 
Ok just stay asleep please stay asleep don’t wake up. I opened the closet door and started rummaging through it trying to be quiet the best I can. 
Suddenly I heard a scream
Uh oh she woke up 
I whip my head around and saw her staring at me with a deadass stare
Uh oh
Her police training kicked it she rushed at me and I punched her heard knocking her out
I heard sirens and I dropped all the things and dashed out the door disappearing into the night once again.
Leaving Audrey unconscious on the ground in her room….
