Did She Ever Mention Murder?

"I still don't understand Scarlett. I know nothing about you!" he replied, frustrated. "Look, Damien, there are things you don't understand about Anna." "Don't you dare bring up Anna!" he snapped. "Would you please listen to me Damien? Stop being so damn stubborn! They are after her. She has been in hiding for the last year. The FBI offered to help her, but she refused." she explained. "Wait, what? Who is after her? Why would anyone be after Anna?" "I told you, there are things you still don't understand about Anna. Here, take a look at this picture. This is 'Anna'." 

Skeptically, he grabbed the photo from Scarlett's hand. Although it didn't look like Anna, he knew it was her. No matter how hard she tried to conceal her identity, her eyes would forever be imprinted in his mind. They were no longer ice blue but the color of smoke; gray, lifeless. Her once lively brunette hair, was now platinum blond. "It's her, but why? And who are you?" he questioned. 

"My name is Detective O'Hara. I've been assigned to offer you protection from the men that are after Anna. They are going after anyone who was ever close to her. Did you know that she has a background in Special Ops?" "A what?!" he proclaimed in utter disbelief. "Listen Damien," she continued. "Anna might have dug her own grave. She has messed with the wrong people at the wrong time." "So, what you are trying to say is that Anna is in severe danger?" he asked as he rubbed his throbbing temples. "Yes, she is. But we are doing all that we can. But I need your help. Did she ever mention a murder?"
