hell?”
    “Excuse me?”
    “What is going on here?” She demanded.
    “We are supposed to be trying to solve a serial rapist case.”
    “No! What is going on with you? Why are you being so impersonal all of a sudden?” Holly demanded.
    “I believe I am complying with what you wanted from the start Detective Cavanaugh.”
    “Oh, no you don’t! You are up to something.” She argued.
    “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
    “Don’t pull that crap on me. You come in here this morning whistling. I have worked here for two full weeks and not once did you come in to the office whistling. Furthermore, you come in bringing me a hot cup of coffee ‘just the way I like it’ and now you are all business and don’t care to discuss anything personal. The man that walked through that door this morning is NOT anyone I recognize.” She said pointing to the door.
    “Okay. Are you ready to get back to the board?” Brock continued.
    “NO! We are not getting back to that board until this is settled.” She said as she walked right up to him and poked him in the chest with eyes blazing. “I don’t know what your game is, but I am not buying it. Just two short nights ago you (poking him in the chest again) wanted nothing more than to strip me naked and get hot and sweaty. Believe me a few more minutes of that taste you gave me and we would have had the whole damn meal. Then, this morning you come in here and you are all business as if that night didn’t happen at all, and there is nothing personal between us, and a business only working relationship is what we have. Is that what you are telling me?”
    “Yes.” He responded staring at Holly.
    “Bullshit!” She shouted.
    “Now look who’s ten.”
    Holly glared at Brock and gave him a shove. He lost his balance as he fell into his chair. “Ten huh? Tell me Detective McClellan, does a ten year old do this?” Holly proceeded to pull the shades and lock the door before walking back over to Brock and straddling his lap. She grabbed a hold of the front of his shirt and leaned in to kiss him. He immediately responded and deepened the kiss as he groped her ass and pulled her body towards his erection. Holly ended the kiss and started to get up when Brock pulled her back down and held on to her.
    He looked her in the eye and asked “Holly? What do you want? Tell me—just tell me what you want.”
    After a brief pause, Holly looked up at Brock with half lidded eyes, “Is the friends with benefits offer still on the table?”

CHAPTER EIGHT
    “Is that what you want?” Brock asked her.
    “Yes, I think so.”
    “I want you to be certain—there will be no going back.”
    “How will it work?” Holly replied.
    “We make our own rules—I have never done this before. Are you on any form of birth control?”
    “Yes, I have an implant.”
    “Good—I hate condoms—you lose spontaneity. We should both get tested.” He suggested.
    “I got tested after I found out that my ex was cheating on me—even though it was with my best friend, I couldn’t possibly know for sure that he wasn’t with other people too, and I didn’t want any more surprises from him. I haven’t been with anyone since.”
    “I will go to a walk in clinic this afternoon and have the results in a couple of days. Do you have any other concerns?”
    “Where will we—ummm—Where will we have sex?” Holly barely whispered.
    Laughing, “You are putting too much thought into it. It will happen when and where it happens—period. So I need an answer, are you certain that this is what you want?” He asked again.
    Holly looked directly into Brock’s eyes. “Yes, I am certain.”
    “Then there is only one thing left...let’s seal it with a kiss.” He said before pulling her close and capturing her lips in a heated kiss.
    Brock pulled out an enlarged map of the city and put pushpins at the location of each rape. When he stepped back to look at it he was able to notice that the rapes that
