It was already 10:30, and Ulric had never slept so soundly.
Ulric was awakened by the sound of a vibrating cell phone. He stretched out comfortably, reached for the phone, eyes closed, put the phone to his ear, and listened to the call with the most comfortable posture.
Vince said directly, "Gwen's uncle, Anthony, is causing trouble at her office right now. Lydia is on her way over."
"What?" Ulric's doze was half awake.
"I don't know what your relationship with her is, but I think you need to know this."
Vince's words were succinct and clear, and Ulric was fully awake, "Thank you, bro."
Ulric hung up the phone and looked to the other side of the bed.
It was empty.
Damn, Gwen was gone again!
Had everything last night been a dream?
Ulric panicked. He let Gwen getaway last time. He couldn't lose Gwen again this time.
