The police cruiser turned left on the dirt road, its tires crunching on the gravel of the unpaved driveway. Inside the cruiser, officer Miller glanced at the house number to verify she had the right address. She wiped sweat from her hairline and entered some information into the laptop suspended in front of the dashboard.
When Miller's radio crackled to life, she jumped and cursed silently. She'd been on edge since the night before and even snapped at the desk sergeant earlier this morning.
Come on Riley,
she thought, rubbing her left arm. The bandage was thick and itchy on her upper arm but her uniform hid the bulk of it.
Get it the
fuck
together.
"Unit 43, what is your location?" the radio crackled with an electronic 'beep'.
"10-23, dispatch," Riley said in response. "I'm at location."
Riley finished typing a few more things into the computer and then locked it. The young officer opened her car's door and stood, adjusting her belt over her slim hips.
Summer was slowly transitioning into Fall but the weather was still warm. Trees swayed and leaves rustled around her as she walked towards the residence. Despite the mild late afternoon sun, beads of sweat rolled between her breasts beneath her vest carrier. She paused at the door to wipe more sweat from her upper lip.
The house was an older mobile home on its own foundations, surrounding by an acre of flat land and trees just beyond. It was a cheap home but appeared to be kept in good condition and there was even an abundant home garden in raised garden boxes. Riley glanced briefly but saw nothing out of place.
Before the officer could knock, the door opened. A young mousey girl stood before her, adjusting her glasses. She wore simple pajama bottoms and a plain, pink top with a large red heart on the chest. Riley sniffed at her briefly and adjusted her belt again.
"Officer Miller," Riley said. She reached in her breast pocket for the small pad of paper and pen she kept there. "We received a call about a break-in?"
"Oh! Yes," the girl said. She seemed nervous and shy but Riley was used to it. Most civilians instantly became nervous around her. She was getting better at spotting the honest nervousness versus the 'Oh shit, I have meth in my trunk' nervousness. The girl stared at her feet and turned her left foot in, toes grabbing at her right foot. "Oh! Come in, I'm sorry. I'm Janet."
Riley stepped over the threshold and followed the girl.
"Do you live here alone?" Riley asked. The girl looked perhaps 18 or 20 and she was willing to bet she was a student at the community college near town. Her pajamas were loose on her and Riley's lips trembled slightly as she stared at the top of the girl's ass. She scented the air and rubbed her left arm again. Shaking the cobwebs from her head she sighed, wishing the girl would run her air conditioning. The heat simply wasn't letting up. A single drop of sweat slide along the curve of her breast down to the light hairs below her belly button and the sensation brought goosebumps to the back of Riley's neck.
"Y- yes," the girl said. She stopped in the kitchen and pointed at the window near the kitchen table. "I came home from school and the door was open. Some of my jewelry is missing and they broke the kitchen window. I- I wouldn't care too much but it was my grandmother's jewelry. She left it for me when she died."
Walking to the window, Riley lifted her chin and her nostrils flared. Images came to her mind as she crouched.
Drughead. Male. Younger. Sick. Cut himself. Sweet. Sweet scent. The girl. Her scent in the house. The room. Pleasure. No cum. Just her scent. Alone. Pleasured herself.
More sweat rolled from Riley's forehead and she tugged at the collar of her undershirt. Her heart raced and the words and images tumbling through her mind made her dizzy. They slipped away from her when she tried to focus on them but settled in the back of her brain. She licked the top of her mouth, tasting something sweet on the air and the taste filled her with warmth. She went to one knee with a quiet grunt and shook her head as it spilled forth within her, spreading down her chest and and then even further.
"Are you okay?" the girl asked behind her.
"Yes," Riley rasped. Her lips trembled again and then bulged as her canine teeth lengthened slowly. She tasted blood on her tongue and it brought her back.
Blood. He cut himself.
She couldn't explain how she knew but Riley glanced around at the pieces of glass until she found what she was looking for. Red tinted the edge of the glass and she brought it to her nose to breathe deeply of his scent.
"Uhhh," the young girl said behind her.
