Killer Instincts (A little snippet of my upcoming short novel for a school project)

[Your Local Shadow Simp]

Characters for this scene:
* Detective Anya Rose Thorne
*Detective Tyler Sloane

I stood before my boyfriend in the middle of the precinct, my face pale.
“Anya…We got the DNA results from the crime scene back…”
“Tyler, I- I can explain!”
“The Angel’s been under our noses this whole time…”
“Tyler, please, listen to me!”
“I can’t believe my Angel has fallen—so far that now, she’s Death’s, wearing his wings instead of mine.”
“Tyler…I…”
“Enough, Anya.”
“Tyler, I did it for you…I did it for love!”
“You caused religious panic across the whole town!”
“…I love you.”
“I thought I loved you, too. But you lead me astray, and let me love a killer.”
"The most dangerous thing to do is to love."

That hit hard

@Youre_Just_A_Pun_To_Put_It_Politely THATS THE POINT

Because Tyler is her boyfriend, but also her detective partner! They’d been following a serial killer case for months, and he eventually found out his own girlfriend who’d been living in his own home was the killer.

@Youre_Just_A_Pun_To_Put_It_Politely yeah, it’s brutal, dude. And I’m already 2 1/2 pages in, and only subtly dropped a hint that she might be the killer.
(She has blackouts, so she doesn’t really remember what happens.)
