Nikki didn’t have the strength to answer the detective. She felt like someone had punched her right in the stomach. How could she not know that he had cameras set up in the house? All that time she spent alone and out of the eyes of the nurses, she spent going through his things. If her accident was on camera then so was her rambling through the house. She understood now why he told her he wanted to kill her while she was sedated.

“Ma'am, can you please answer my question?” the detective asked.

“No, I don't want to harm myself or my child my unborn child,” she told him.

“There is no other explanation for you to dive off the top of the stairs like you did. Are you suffering from any kind of mental condition such as bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety?”

“No, why would you even ask me that?” Nikki asked with her face balled up to show how offended she was by that question.

“Well, to make sure, we are going to issue a court order for you to be mentally evaluated. If you don't comply with the evaluation; you will be arrested and put in jail,” the detective said.

“Arrested for what?” she asked.

“For starters you knowingly filed a false report. Then, that dive you did off the top of the steps guaranteed you a murder charge,” the detective said.

“How can you charge me with murder and I'm the one carrying the baby?” Nikki asked.

“The same way you accuse your fiancé of murder and was trying to make us believe he pushed you down the stairs,” the detective answered.

“I don't know why this is happening to me. It seems like all bad luck is coming my way. I try to do good things and be a good person, but things always seem to happen to me,” Nikki whined.

“I don't know what type of good person would dive down some steps knowing she's pregnant, and an at risk pregnancy at that,” the detective said.

“Am I allowed to have any visitors? You know since you have me all handcuffed to the bed and shit,” Nikki said.

“Only immediate family, preferably a parent,” he said.

“What? That means I'm not going to have any visitors. The only people who come to visit me are my two aunties. My mom is a damn drug addict and most likely trying to stay out of jail herself,” she said.

“I don’t know what you want me to say to that. I guess all I can say is if your aunties come, I’ll let you know,” the detective said.

He was all out of sympathy and compassion for Nikki. She was the worst type of woman in his eyes. The ones that try to pin a man for some horrible crime that they didn’t commit. He would make sure the fact that Nikki had killed her own child and blamed an innocent man got out to the other prisoners. He knew they would deal with her ass soon as word got out.

Laura sat in the waiting area of the prison waiting for her turn to be searched so she could go back to her waiting prisoner. Attorney Taylor had reviewed the information that she had given him the other day. When he was done he had no time to waste to get her on Mike-Mike’s visitor’s list. He knew that Mike-Mike would have some questions for her.

After the call to the prison, he called Laura to let her know that she was on now Mike’s visitor’s list. He also advised her to visit him as soon as possible. They didn’t have any time to waste. So, here she was, uncomfortable and second guessing her actions. It was too late for her to do that now. She knew Scott had a meeting with the governor later today.

Walking up to the guard who was going to search her, she rolled her eyes. Laura was not in the mood to be felt up by a man looking woman right now. Judging by the smile on the guard’s face, she knew that’s exactly what was about to happen. Stepping up, and trying not to show the attitude she had, Laura smiled as big as she could.

“I haven’t seen you here before. Who are you here to see?” the guard asked.

“Michael Aries,” Laura answered.

“Oh yeah, did you know him before he got in here?”

“Yeah, he’s my sister’s baby daddy,” she told the nosy ass guard.

“Hmm, you not up here with your sister, so what’s up with that?”

“Do I have any other papers to sign?” Laura asked, not wanting to continue with this line of questioning.

“Step forward and hold your hands up,” the guard instructed.

Laura did as she was told.

Laura had to hold her breath as the guard walked around her, looking her up and down. The guard stayed behind her and ran her fingers through Laura’s hair. Immediately, she felt the manly hand rub her neck and back. She expected to feel the hands on her ass, but instead, she was shocked to feel the hot breath of the guard on her neck and ear. The guard’s hands moved to the front of Laura’s body. Each hand grabbed a breast.
