CHAPTER TWELVE

Marked for Murder swept the ratings again and had been nominated for every Emmy offered in the show’s category.

Mika read the article one of the top magazines had written on her wife. Leah’s incredibly perfect face graced the magazine’s cover, which had resulted in an all-time high in the publication’s sales. Mika recalled thinking that Leah should be on the cover of a magazine.

Ever careful to keep her personal life private, Leah had only agreed to answer certain questions. Yes, she was very happily married. Yes, she had children. Beyond that, others knew very little about her and their children. It would be difficult to explain how they looked mid-thirties and had a son older than they were.

There were many reasons they had a baby every five years. The main reason was they wanted to give their babies all the attention and training they needed during the first five years of their lives to set them in the right direction. The second one was so they could move to another part of the world after each set of twins graduated from high school. The time schedule allowed each set of twins to attend the same school for five years and graduate with their friends. They planned almost everything around what was best for their children.

Regina and Matt were at the age where the family could move or commit to five years in New York. Mika was torn.

If the Pope asked her to stay in New York, she would, but secretly she wanted to get her family out of the city where even the church was corrupt.

She studied Leah’s face on the cover of the magazine. She gently traced the tiny scar above Leah’s lip. Mika needed to see her. She sent Leah a text.

Mika: Missing you.

Leah: Meet me at Joe’s in 15.

Mika: Suddenly, my world is perfect.

As soon as Mika entered the lounge, Joe poured her a glass of wine and carried it to the booth the priest always used.

As he was greeting Mika, SHE walked in. SHE! Everything about her was uppercase. SHE walked into the bar like a gorgeous, graceful cat on the prowl, her hips swaying suggestively. She slid onto the bar stool as if she were taking her place on a throne. She lifted her chin slightly, knowing every eye in the place was absorbing her beauty. Her posture was straight and regal. Her eyes picked up the reflection of the priest in the mirror. They slid slowly over Mika, as if assessing which of her desires she might fulfill. Leah knew the answer was all of them.

The priest observed her for over half an hour, letting her imagination run wild. A woman like that could do things to a person that shouldn’t even be spoken aloud. Mika thought of how Leah loved her, leaning above her in the darkness, endlessly whispering Mika’s name as she lowered her lips to Mika’s. She filled Mika’s nights with endless ecstasy. No matter how well Mika thought she knew her, Leah always had a slight air of mystery about her.
