God, no. If Charlotte is there, and she—I stop myself from thinking about what could happen and refocus.
"Give me the address, and I’ll come over right now."
To my surprise, she does, and I write it down.
"Nick, if I see anyone but you, the little brat will be dead before you can say a word."
I stare at the screen after she hangs up. My God. Cindy kidnapped Charlotte, and I should have known! Why didn't I? Slowly, the realization hit me. It's all my fault. I brought Cindy into Emma and Charlotte's life. I put them in danger, and it's up to me to fix it.
Without hesitation, I walk over to the table and grab Emma's phone and notebook. I tear out a blank page and write a few lines. I hurry my way through the hallway while setting the alarm. Once in Charlotte's room, I place the phone with the note next to the bed. My hands go to my angel's face, who is still asleep. I plant a feathery kiss on her hair, and take a moment to soothe my aching heart by inhaling her scent.
"I'm bringing our girl back home, Emma. And whatever happens, I love you." I walk out and when I'm back in the kitchen, I grab my coat and pull out my car keys.
Just hold on there, Smarty. I'm bringing you home.
