"If two went missing from the other places does that mean another girl will go missing from the Daffodil?"
I shook my head, "I don't know, Jen. But I'll come to the club every night if I have to until this mess is cleared up. I won't let anything happen to you. I promise."
She smiled and leaned in and kissed me. I could taste her salty tears.
I picked her up in my arms and carried her to the bedroom.
Her nap would just have to wait....
