My One Special One – Chapter 17
Previously…
Detective Cavalli shifted his eyes to watch Pete approach to begin his cross examination. He knew that he and his partner would be facing several hours of cross on this case, but he was ready.
Tina was ready, too. What she wasn’t prepared for was the chill that suddenly ran down her spine. Steve leaned over. “You okay?”
“Yep. Just a chill. Hope I’m not coming down with something.”
She couldn’t see the man who quietly entered the courtroom. He was as quiet and still as a wild cat watching its soon to be dinner.
The rest of the day was taken up with Pete’s cross examination of Detective Cavalli, Tina’s redirect, short recross and an effective but short further redirect by Tina. Pete had made his points, even so far as several hammer blows into the detective’s methods of questioning the defendant. He knew how to rattle these detectives, but Cavalli wouldn’t budge, though Pete noticed several jurors giving imperceptible nods of agreement as he continued with his questions.
Tina watched the jury also and was quick on her redirect to repair whatever damage Pete had inflicted. Steve knew he was a good attorney but he was and had always been in awe of Tina and her ability to quickly rebound from a defense attack…and from the so obvious dislike by Judge Charles Morris. It still surprised him in this day and age of the 21st century, that female attorneys still continually fought the good old boys for recognition of themselves as something other than being baby machines or penis receptacles.
The judge, the jury and defense counsel had all left the courtroom now. Once the jury had exited, the sheriff’s officers cuffed and escorted the defendant back to the holding cell. It was just Steve and Tina sitting at counsel table. Though they were speaking softly, within the cavernous walls of this old courtroom their voices held a small echo.
“It went well, Tina. We’re going to nail this guy, one, because he’s guilty; two, the police were impeccable on this one and, three, because you are so prepared…of course, you’ve been assisted by one of the most able ADA’s in the office, but please…please, it’s not necessary to kneel before me.”

Omnimous AC. I like your Tina, all in charge of protecting Bette. Boy evil lurks everywhere don’t they? Thanks for the update.
Yeah, this story is getting more and more exciting. The badies are coming out of their holes… I love Tina as a lawyer (I am one myself ;-) ) and hope she will win her case and be happy with Bette after they have got rid of the drug gang.Thank you for this wonderful story, I am really looking forward to your next post.
Double creepy. He’s creepy and so is this chapter. I like it! So glad Bette caught the fact that he used her name.
Have been eagerly awaiting this chapter with a little sense of anxiety myself. We trust that you will not let anything happen to either of our girls. You are doing a wonderful job with this story. Keep writing andI will keep reading. Really enjoy your work. Thank you very, very much.
Oh Sh*t
hmmmmmmmm… can’t wait for more… and please keep them both safe…
wow that was scary! Glad the police got there and went inside when they did!
crap, don’t scare us like that, i hope our ladies will be safe and from your other story i know i can trust you…thanks
I hate it when one of the ladies is having trouble with evil people. I hope that Bette will be safe and that Tina will win that case. Baddies are always out there (including IC) and people need to be protected. Sorry about not doing comments before. I was one of those silent readers.
Tina nor Bette will back down unless the other one will get hurt. Both know that trouble is ahead Keep both safe thanks
Hey Arceextl, It is wonderful to have you returning and continuing this magnificent story. There was such a serious sence of forebroding in this chapter. Tina’s emotional turmol was expertly conveyed as was Bette’s realization of who her last ‘customer’ may have been. Truly edge of the seat stuff as I am waiting to read what transpires next. Will there be an attempt to harm either gal or more physiological pressure laid on them. It is down to your fantastic skills and talents as a writer that keeps the story fresh and a ‘must-read now’. Thank you do much for this gift. Your Loyal Fan.
wow..it was chillin..i really like your post
This is definitely an “oh shit” moment. D=
Holy crap! I’m scared!
This story is so good and really exciting, so please post more often. I love this story and your writing and I hope the next post is about B&T’s evening together. Take care :o))
