"He escaped, Lindsey, and I have no fucking idea where he is."
All it took was twelve words to spin my world on it's axis. Angel. Gone. Escaped. Fucking perfect. Darla was pissed off and wanted vengeance. I got no problem with vengeance, but I do have a problem with the passion that Darla has for Angel.Yeah, she says it's all about hating him and wanting him to be punished, but I know that hate can easily turn into love. Been there plenty of times. Now that Angel is out and free to take back his life? I can't help but wonder how long it will be before some of those old feelings buried deep inside Darla start to surface.
It's been years and we're still playing the same games. Old feelings die hard, and I've come to damn far to lose her to him. How the hell did he escape? Who is helping him? How long before he shows up on my door step wanting to pay back a little of his own vengeance?
I got too many questions and not enough answers. This isn't my comfort zone. I don't like being the one who is missing the important information. Obviously, I need to find the answers, and find them fast. Only way to keep my head and not have Angel or the Senior Partners on my ass is to figure out what went wrong and then I'll take the steps necessary to put Angel back where he belongs.
First thing I need to find out is how he got out. Someone fucked up and they are going to have to pay for that. Angel getting free isn't a mistake that can be overlooked. There is entirely too much clean up involved. Fuck. Like I need this right now?
Darla and I have had the past few years together and things have been perfect. She was able to be saved and I'll be damned if I let anyone hurt her or take her from me again. No way in hell as long as I'm still breathing. So, I just need to make sure I stay breathing.
