Chapter 6 - The Sound of Handcuffs
The two highly experienced, incredibly stern police officers watched the incredibly horrifying, completely undeniable high-definition video footage in complete, absolute, and highly disturbed, entirely unbroken silence.
The lead officer’s previously neutral facial expression instantly, completely hardened into a terrifying mask of pure, unadulterated, and highly intense professional disgust and deep moral outrage.
He slowly, highly deliberately handed the bright smartphone completely back to Alejandro, completely turning his intense, highly focused attention entirely away from us and our highly traumatized state.
He took three highly deliberate, incredibly heavy, and completely purposeful steps directly, aggressively toward the corner of the room where Victoria was currently standing entirely paralyzed.
Victoria was completely, utterly pale, her highly expensive, deeply Botoxed skin completely resembling the sickly, entirely terrifying color of highly dead, entirely fragile, and completely burnt ash.
She desperately, highly frantically tried to take a single, highly weak step backward, frantically looking incredibly wildly for any possible, completely impossible, and entirely nonexistent avenue of physical escape from the absolute reality of her crimes.
"That digital video is completely, entirely, and highly maliciously doctored by a highly paid professional!" she screamed incredibly hysterically, her highly shrill voice violently cracking with pure, entirely unhinged, and completely absolute panic.
"It is a highly sophisticated, completely fake deepfake video, she is actively, highly illegally trying to maliciously, completely ruin my absolutely pristine, highly respected high-society reputation!"
The lead police officer completely, utterly, and entirely ignored her highly pathetic, incredibly desperate, and completely highly absurd technological excuses that made absolutely no logical sense.
He smoothly, highly aggressively, and entirely flawlessly reached down to his completely thick, highly loaded black leather utility belt strapped tightly to his waist.
The incredibly loud, highly satisfying, and entirely absolute metallic click of heavy, completely cold steel handcuffs being completely unsnapped from their secure leather pouch echoed perfectly, flawlessly through the highly silent kitchen.
"Victoria Vance, you are officially, highly entirely under absolute arrest for highly aggravated physical assault, severe, heavily documented domestic violence, and highly premeditated attempted murder," he stated incredibly coldly, highly clearly.
He forcefully, highly aggressively grabbed her expensive, tweed-covered arms, violently and entirely twisting them incredibly high behind her highly expensive, completely ruined designer jacket.
He aggressively, completely flawlessly snapped the incredibly cold, highly heavy steel cuffs entirely securely around her highly manicured, completely shaking wrists, loudly locking them incredibly tightly into an absolute, inescapable place.
Victoria completely, utterly lost her highly fragile, deeply sociopathic mind, shrieking incredibly loudly and violently kicking entirely wildly like a highly terrifying, completely cornered, and entirely rabies-infected wild animal.
She aggressively, highly violently cursed at the highly stoic police officers, explicitly, incredibly aggressively threatening to completely, entirely sue their entire municipal department into absolute, completely irrecoverable financial bankruptcy.
She violently, highly aggressively spat completely vile, incredibly toxic, and deeply horrific insults directly at me, absolutely showing her entirely true, incredibly demonic, and completely unfiltered evil nature to absolutely everyone present in the room.
The second, highly imposing police officer aggressively stepped completely forward and forcefully, highly tightly grabbed her by the shaking shoulders, entirely physically restraining her highly violent, completely out-of-control physical outbursts.
They aggressively, completely frog-marched her highly resistant, incredibly screaming, and entirely flailing body directly, forcefully out the open front door and entirely into the bright, highly revealing, and completely public afternoon sunlight.
They roughly, highly aggressively shoved her entirely resisting, completely hysterical body directly into the small, highly uncomfortable back seat of the highly secure, completely waiting police cruiser, completely ignoring her highly arrogant demands for a highly paid, incredibly expensive lawyer.
The incredibly heavy, completely highly reinforced door of the police car aggressively slammed entirely shut, instantly, completely cutting off the incredibly loud, highly toxic, and completely suffocating sound of her highly screaming, entirely vile voice.
Inside the incredibly quiet, completely highly secured kitchen, the incredibly heavy, highly suffocating, and deeply terrifying atmosphere finally, completely, and entirely broke into a million tiny, highly peaceful pieces.
Alejandro forcefully pulled me entirely into a highly fierce, incredibly protective, and deeply desperate, completely warm embrace that absolutely shielded me from the completely traumatic, highly chaotic events of the day.
He aggressively buried his completely exhausted, highly dusted face deeply into my hair, his incredibly massive, highly muscular shoulders completely shaking slightly as the massive, highly intense adrenaline completely, finally left his highly trained military system.
"I am so incredibly, deeply, and entirely profoundly sorry that I was absolutely not here to completely, highly safely protect you from her absolute evil," he whispered incredibly brokenly, his highly strong voice cracking heavily with immense, deeply held emotion.

I completely wrapped my highly bruised, entirely exhausted arms incredibly tightly around his highly strong, completely solid neck, finally, entirely allowing myself to fully cry massive, highly cleansing tears of profound, absolute, and completely undeniable relief.
The incredibly long, deeply horrifying, and completely highly terrifying, entirely suffocating nightmare was finally, completely, absolutely, and entirely over for good.
