"I will, thanks for coming to see me, Archer."
"No problem, I know you'd do the same for me if you were in my shoes."
I got up to leave and shook his hand. "Anything you ever need, don't hesitate to call me."
"Thank you, I will. And good luck with that call you have to make."
Chuckling, he replied. "Thanks, I'm really going to need it."
Arriving at our office building, I was getting off the elevator and heading to my office when my phone beeped with a text from Riker.
Riker:I see you're here at the office, so come see me as soon as you can. I finally got Jared's file unsealed, and you're not going to like what was in it.
Letting out a curse, I made an about face and made my way back to the elevator, going down one floor to where Riker’s office was and knocked on his door. "Come on in, Archer!"
Walking in, I sat down in one of the chairs. "Okay, lay it on me. What am I dealing with here?"
"Well, to put it bluntly, one sick little fucker."
Perking up at his words, I asked. "What exactly did you find, Riker?"
Taking a deep breath, he began. "I found out that Jared did a stint in a psych ward for almost two years as a teen. Apparently, he was obsessed with a girl that he went to middle school with. He stalked her at school, her home, and when she was out with friends, he was always showing up wherever she was, scaring her. He became so obsessed with her that he broke into her house one day, went into her bedroom and put her undergarments on as well as her clothes and laid in her bed because he said he wanted to feel closer to her. The girl's mother came home first, found him in her daughter’s room and called the cops."
"What the fuck kind of sicko is this guy? I need to call Gage, and make sure he has a good eye on Sloane."
"Wait. There's more you need to hear first."
"More?" I asked, grabbing for my phone. "I thought the rest of his police record was clean."
"It is, but when I found that in his sealed records I started digging around some more and found that there was a report filed with the campus police when he went to college. He supposedly stalked a woman and she reported him, but nothing ever came of it as far as with the local authorities for some reason, because I checked. But Archer... you really need to see the pictures of these two women."
Taking two photos out of the file, he twisted them around for me to get a look at. "Holy shit!"
"That's the same reaction I had. They could both be Sloane's twin."
