When Cole and Jenny had headed upstairs for the night, hed seen her to her room before continuing on to his own. Hed started to close his door, then thought better of it. The nights revelations had been emotionally draining. As he glanced at the cot hed yet to put away, he knew there was a better than even chance Jenny would want to sleep there tonight.
In the bathroom, he dropped his shirt in the hamper and splashed cold water on his face. Truth be told, talking about his time overseas stirred up feelings he found troubling. In the mirror, he met his own dark eyes. He knew he was lucky. Luckier than a lot of others who went home maimed and broken. But a year of living in near-constant fear took its toll.
He couldnt imagine the demons Jenny harbored. He works for the guy whos been keeping me. Shed been someones captive. For two years. Two fucking years. That meant shed been taken when she was eighteen or so.
