I felt pretty darn proud of myself, despite the danger I had put myself in.

I even went so far as to make myself comfortable in Colin’s kitchen and make a coffee. After that, I looked through my phone until I found my chief’s number.

I had never made a call to his phone directly before. I never had a reason to. I was fully aware of the kind of liberty I took by calling him now, but I was excited. There was pure adrenaline rushing through my veins. I wanted to tell somebody.

“Yes?” He groaned impatiently into the phone when he answered.

“Chief. This is Marley.”

He was silent, and I realized he may not have recognized me by first name.

“Marley Price,” I clarified.

“Why are you calling me?” he asked. I could hear the confusion in his voice.

He had probably not even noticed I was missing from the precinct. Someone else would have fetched him his coffee that day.

“I just wanted to personally let you know that I won’t be in for a few days,” I began.

I was smiling despite the hostility in his voice. I felt like nothing could bring me down. I was on top of the world.

“And why the fuck not?” Chief asked. There was annoyance in his voice now, and I wished I could openly tell him exactly what I was doing—although I knew that wouldn’t be a good idea.

I needed to keep my mission a secret for as long as possible. I needed to first execute my plan before I went around beating my own drum.

“I’m working on something. On a case,” I said hesitantly.

“What are you talking about, Price? What case?”

“I can’t discuss it over the phone, but I’ll come and see you in a few days with all the information I have.”

“Have you lost your fucking mind?” he growled.

“No, I’m actually trying to build a case against some people you would be interested in.”

“You don’t know what you’re doing,” he snapped.

The smile disappeared from my face.

What did I have to do to gain some respect from him or anyone in the precinct? How little did he think of me? He didn’t even know me.

“Actually, sir, with all due respect, I know exactly what I’m doing and if you give me a few days, I can prove it to you,” I replied.

“Get your ass to the precinct and explain yourself, Price,” he snapped again.

But this time I ended the call in response. I couldn’t take it anymore. I couldn’t take the mistrust and humiliation.

Sure, I was a rookie. I am a woman. Maybe I was too young and inexperienced too, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t take down the Dohertys.

I was married to one of them.
