Chapter Twelve

Archer

I'm sitting at my desk looking at the background check on Eric Delmont. He checks out. What he was saying about being ex-military was right. This is our guy; it just seems hard to believe. I mean, he doesn't seem the type to be crazy. However, he might be a quiet sociopath, thinking about the world's destruction in his mind. I guess this case is closed. I already called up to Nisa, and they had the guy arrested. His trial is already set for the end of this month, but it will go fast since he confessed. Now, I wonder if he will get a life sentence or a death sentence. I think, in this case, a life one will wear on him more. Slowly breaking his silent demeanor. All I know is he will never see the outside world again. A judge won't let what happened to Rory happen to anyone else. It was brutal and merciless.

I'm just glad he's off the street. With that being said, I can go home now. Daphne left a while ago. She told Nisa what happened with Grey, and Nisa told her to go home to rest. Thankfully, if I had kept asking her, she wouldn't have gone. I haven't seen Grey yet. He was on a different assignment. Something to do with the drug cartel, I think. But he should've been back by now. Maybe Nisa already took him upstairs to fire him.

I log out of my computer and get my desk reorganized. I don't like to leave it a mess for the following day. It makes my morning go by faster if it's already clean and ready for me to do any paperwork that's needed. Tomorrow, I'll have to fill out the interrogation report and what I felt about him confessing to me. The thing is that I think he's telling the truth. He knew that Rory was dancing at the club with multiple women. We didn't previously note him, but by putting his face under the surveillance, we see him. We didn't flag him because he seems unbothered by Rory. But now, seeing him from the interrogation, I see the ticks and the jaw tightening when Rory dances with a petite brunette.

It all checks out. The warehouse that he gave another agent the address to was a bloody mess. I saw the pictures; Rory must've been bleeding out a while for that much blood. All for dancing with a girl that was fucking a sociopath. But I can admit that if I saw someone touch Daphne, I would have the same reaction. My blood was boiling when Grey had his hands on her. But my good girl can fight. I would love to spar with her sometime. I wonder if she would take it easy on me because I already know I would probably get my ass handed to me with the move she pulled on Grey.

Getting up from my desk, I head for the elevators. It dings when I get to it, and out comes a very furious Grey.
