Husband With Benefits

"Its like chasing a ghost, sir!" The person looked at the two signals on the GPS tracker and was tempted to pull at his hair. The first signal kept moving unpredictably while the second signal remained still. Their teams had already divided into two. One tracked through the forest while the others dived into the lake.

He wanted to tell Demetri Frost that maybe the kidnappers had discovered both the GPs trackers and thus gotten rid of it but the man seemed adamant that his wife was here. How could she be in the middle of the lake, he had no idea. But telling that to the Demon Frost would be a waste of time. As far as he could judge, there was only one way Nora Williams could be in the lake. And that was if she was already dead. However, he dared not say that to that man.

Just then, he heard the sound of large trucks rumbling in and looked at the man with a tough question.

A man who looked much like the Demon Frost himself rushed up and said," Demon, the submersible and floating pumps are here. We also have the dredgers and the weirs. The engineer is also on the way and the environmental specialist is already checking the site. Once we have his clearance, the lake can be emptied within a couple of hours."

The policeman widened his eyes. Demon Frost was not just efficient but also scary. Since he believed his wife was somehow in the lake, he was going to empty the entire place. The next thing he knew, the man would cut down the forest to track down the other GPS.

Just then he received a communication from his other team," Sir, we have discovered the first tracker. It was a decoy. They planted it on a small mouse and released it into the wild."

The inspector marveled at the ingenuity of the kidnapped and looked at Demon Frost," Sir, they’ve already used a decoy. This too could be a way to waste our time here. It’s already been a few hours and we have already been looking around in the blind. They could have long taken her from here."

But the man shook his head and answered," What about the wall that Sara told us about?"

There is indeed an old wall that opens up but it is simply like a small closet. It’s like from the old times when they would make servant quarters. There is no passage there. They must have used the wall to hide Miss Nora there for a while. It is empty now. Also, it has been sprayed with a lot of disinfectants so even if we were to bring sniffer dogs, it would be useless."

Demon frowned and narrowed his eyes, thinking carefully. Nora should have found a way to escape by now and establish contact with him.

As the loud sounds of the Dredgers and the hydraulic pumps echoed in the air, the officer winced and shook his head," This noise is as loud as one of those thundering fighter jets..."

It was indeed loud, Demon thought passively but as the comment registered in his mind, his eyes widened and he made a call," I need details to any old underground bunkers that were made in this area."
