Shadows In Durango

Chapter 69

*****Vincent's POV*****

Pacing back and forth by the front door, I chew the skin on the side of my thumb to the point that it starts to bleed...

I felt fucking terrible after that, with nothing but sheer dread filling me entirely at what we had just done to her.

The doorbell finally rings, as I swiftly open it, ushering in the only person I could think to call next - our family doctor.

"Ok, where is the poor thing?" Selene asks, as I all but move towards the stairs assuming that she would know to follow me - which thankfully she does.

I couldn't bring myself to speak or admit what we had both done to her yet, knowing that I just wanted somebody to help ease her pain and fast!

A punch from Daryl, whether I wanted to admit it or not, was fucking sore at the best of times and she had took one right to the back of the head...

Not to mention that I grew up fighting, so I can only imagine the state that her ribs are in after that forceful knee from myself which had been intended for Daryl.

We were fools, fighting like that in front of her, but Daryl was the one who started it! I hope he feels good about his little tantrum this time around!

Opening the door to her room, Selene moves towards her on the bed as I glance over Sofia who continues to quietly cry as Daryl strokes her hand - the guilt ripping through me like a murderous blade at the sight of her. Here I was, supposed to be keeping her safe and I've just kneed her full force during a fight under my own roof.

But why did she think to get in the way in the first place? We didn't even have any time to react!
