“Tell me where my daughter is. That’s the only thing I want to hear out of your mouth.”

“She’s in your old room.”

Adrianna took off running behindCam.Faintly, in the background, the front door swung open and Walter yelled, “What the hell is this?”

They kept going, climbing the long stairs two steps at a time, running down the hallway. At the end,Campushed the door open and halted. Music blared from inside the room. Ed Sheeran again, asking a girl to give him love. Her heart an inch from her mouth, Adri pushed past him and would have sagged if he hadn’t caught her.

Bron was in front of the window using his old easel. She turned around and smiled at them ever so briefly before her eyes clouded. “You’re mad at me, aren’t you? I told Grandpa you would be and he said you wouldn’t be because you would be so happy to see me here. And he bought me Chick-fil-Aand the cheesy fries.”

Adriwas way too happy, way too relieved to be mad. He knew how desperate she and Cam would be to get to her and he’d exploited that.Fuck you, Walter.

But he didn’t matter. Nothing else did.

She crossed the room and pulled her daughter into her arms. She wasn’t ever going to let her out of them.
