Embers of Deceit

Summary

In the middle of the night, I received an emergency dispatch to unlock a door. As a firefighter, I arrived at the scene as quickly as possible.

It was a couple playing games, and the woman’s handcuffs were stuck.

I went through the standard procedure, asking the man if there were any other hazards in the room.

The man laughed and shook his head, a playful look on his face.

I felt a bit weirded out.

That was until I looked down and saw the woman on the bed. She had used her hair to completely cover her face.
