Shadows In Durango

Chapter 113

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

I barely hang up the phone before I'm back pacing in the office again, hating the feeling of being out of control in any situation let alone one involving Sofia!

I can't believe I didn't know about him sooner, when Daryl had been the one to show him around at school and Emma also knew that he was here...

I was slightly annoyed that Emma also hadn't told me about this crucial information sooner, but I also knew that it wasn't a deliberate mistake on her part.

I was just extremely on edge with the whole thing and this addition to the story didn't help me in the slightest.

Sofia had been carrying this weight, hiding it from me, while I was too wrapped up in my own guilt dealing with her father and his demands behind her back.
