“Well, will ya take a look at that,” Rocky said as he and Marley watched Carmelita and Amber walk hand in hand to the Mercedes Carmelita was driving. “I can’t believe a hot piece of ass like Carmelita Sanchez is into chicks!”

“I can,” Marley said nonchalantly. “When the world is full of guys like you, its understandable that a woman would just give up altogether.”

“Maybe you’ve got a little secret you’re hiding,” Rocky quipped.

“You know I’m happily married.” Marley revved the engine and followed the Benz.

“Wonder where they’re off to now.”

“My guess is that they’re headed to Ebony Knight’s former residence.”

“Why would they go there?”

“Because I know that Ebony Knight was telling the truth. And if Carmelita was trying to take Ebony’s life from her and make it her own, wouldn’t it make sense that she’d move into that big, beautiful mansion?”

“I guess,” Rocky admitted. “But I don’t know how anyone would want to live at the scene of those gruesome murders.”

“Something tells me that Carmelita isn’t the squeamish type. And you see the kind of joint they’re walking out of. It’s a fetish store. These women aren’t afraid of mice or spiders or a little bit of blood.”

“What makes you so sure?”

“Let’s just call it women’s intuition,” Marley said as she tailed the couple.

Amber and Carmelita made a pit stop at a grocery store, and then, just as Marley had predicted, they drove down Collins Avenue until they pulled up to the Mexican-tiled driveway in front of Ebony’s home.

“Now what?” Rocky asked.

“Now we wait. And watch.”

“Great. An unexpected stakeout. I’m starving, Marley. Can’t we get something to eat and come back?”

“Don’t be a crybaby, Rocky. Here, have a nutrition bar.” Marley reached across him and opened the glove compartment. “It’ll tide you over.”

“Bullshit,” Rocky grumbled, then he angrily ripped off the foil packaging and took a frustrated bite of the granola bar. “Wonder what they’re doing in there,” Rocky said lecherously.

“You’re such a perv. You know, women are more than just—” Marley began, then noticed a woman walking with determination toward their squad car. “Busted.”

“Can I help you officers?” Carmelita asked, her hands on her hips.

“No,” Marley said with a terse smile.

“Would either of you like to explain why you’re camped outside my house?”

“We’re here on a police matter that is unrelated to you,” Rocky said.

“Is that right?”

“Absolutely. It’s a small world after all, isn’t it, partner?”

“You got that right,” Marley replied, slipping a pair of mirrored shades over her eyes.
