Page 15 of His Forgotten Colton Fiancee
She blinked rapidly, moisture filling her lovely brown eyes. “I wish we had been closer. I really do. I’m so worried about her.”
He held her tight, stroking her back in circles. West hated seeing herthis upset. Hated that he was the one making her cry, because he had to ask all these questions. It was his job, and he had no choice.
Not that he could tell her that.
“What does your compact look like? If it’s like hers, I might be able to track her down.” He wiped away a stray tear. “Don’t tell your brothers. This is something I’m working on my own.”
“To find Demi?”
At his nod,she swiped a hand over her eyes. He didn’t like the frown denting her brows, and the suspicious look she gave him. “Not because she’s my sister and you know how worried I am about her. Because she’s a suspect.”
He blew out a breath. “She is a suspect, Quinn. The sooner we can find, and question her...”
“The sooner you can arrest her.”
West clenched his hands. “The sooner she’ll besafe. Now, will you help me?”
Quinn bit her lower lip. “All right. I’ll tell you whatever you need to know, as long as it will help Demi.”
“Is your gold compact like hers?”
“Not exactly.” She frowned, and toyed with the brush again. “Actually, now I remember. Hers wasn’t gold. It was silver, with her initials on it. And round. I got a round one for her to engrave her initials on it.”
Damn.
“Mine was heart shaped.”
West went still. A chill raced down his spine. “What exactly does it look like?”
His heart dropped to his already-churning stomach at her next words.
“It’s gold. With a butterfly emblem on the front.”
