The next morning it was as if a grey cloud hung over all of them. When Delaney woke up she snuggled up against her husband and smiled until she remembered suddenly what this day would bring. She wrapped an arm around his warm, muscled chest then and fought back tears as she waited for him to wake up.
Ian was sick from having too much to drink at Win's Club the night before. He and some of the guards had all gone out together since they had a night off. When Delaney walked down the stairs a while later with Vincent she spotted her friend sitting at a table with some of the other men with his head in his hands.
Delaney giggled and shook her head but when she turned to look at Vincent she saw he was watching the other man with a strange expression. He saw her looking and he glanced her way before forcing a small smile to his lips and nodding towards Ian.
