“Hey Deb, what’s up?” I ask as I walk up to Deborah’s desk.

“You and Carson got another package,” she says, wide-eyed. I sigh and take the package from her.

“Thank you,” I smile and walk it back to the office. When I come into the office Carson pushes me against the closed door and kisses me.

“I hate to end that, but Deb got another package delivered at her desk for us,” I hand him the small box. He sighs heavily and takes it to his desk.

“All I want to do is do dirty things to my fiancé, but something always is getting in the way,” he frowns.

“Cheer up. We have an ultrasound today,” I say, kissing him and then lean on his desk directly in front of him. He tosses the box down and stands.

“See, I could just pull that little skirt of yours up and lay you across my desk,” he whispers in my ear then gently bites my neck forcing a moan from me.

“Steph is going to be here any second.” I get cut off as Stephanie walks into the room and immediately laughs.

“It’s like watching two horny principals,” she giggles.

“Sometimes I regret hiring you,” Carson teases.

“He’s just cranky because he hasn’t gotten any this week,” I wink at him. “We got another package with no name.” I pick up the box and show it to her.

I lay it on a paper towel and cut the tape around the sides and open it up. As I remove the lid the smell intensifies. “Oh, dear god. I’m going to puke. It’s wet” I say, covering my mouth to stifle my need to vomit.

“Why does it smell like that?” she asks.

“Oh my god. What the fuck is in this?” I gag again.

Stephanie and I step in and get a closer look inside the box. In sync with each other, Stephanie and I both scream and fall backward away from the table. Our loud reaction startles Carson and he jumps up.

“Woah,” he says, walking over to me as I am sitting on the ground. Terror-filled tears fill my eyes as I point to the table. I slowly get up at the same time Stephanie does.

“What the fuck is that? Is that real?” she asks. Inside the box, there is a left hand that is starting to decompose.

“Oh fuck! That’s real. We need to call the cops,” Carson says.

“Oh dear god,” I say while gagging.

He goes to his phone and calls Deborah to the office. I stop her at the door and don’t let her in.

“Cops are going to be here in a bit. Get a list of every single person who came into this building and go ahead and pull the tapes for the day. I need this as soon as possible, okay?” I tell her.

“What was in the box?” she asks, concerned.

“A decomposing hand,” I say bluntly. She laughs but stops when she realizes I’m being serious. “Oh god,” she whispers.

“As soon as possible, okay? Do not let anyone know what’s going on here but if anyone randomly leaves, make a note of it! Okay?” I say.
