Оглавление“I’m so frightened. I want my daughter. I want my life back.”
Locke knelt next to Greer. “I’m scared, too, if it makes you feel any better. For Lin’s safety and yours. But he’s been in this house. He knows we have a daughter, and while we’re being super careful and taking extra measures to make sure we aren’t followed...we aren’t perfect.”
She looked into his eyes and he saw her fear.
“Maybe we move Lin somewhere else,” he told her. “Or talk to the sheriff about extra protection. We’ll figure it out. You and me,” he whispered. “Okay?”
She only nodded and he refrained from wiping her tearstained cheeks. He was supposed to be angry with her for keeping his child from him. But right now, in this moment, she was so vulnerable. So frightened. He could only offer her compassion. Any other emotion he felt toward Greer could get them killed.
He had to focus on one thing only: a killer was coming. With vengeance on his mind.
