“I have no idea what she’s saying. I never learned that crap. If she wants to talk to me then she’ll learn how to talk like a real person. With all of Spencer’s money, he should have had her fixed by now.”

The officer holding on to Meggie’s hand looked at Cait. It wasn’t hard to read the expression on his face. He was appalled by Shannon. Without saying a word, he opened the back door to his cruiser again and helped Meggie in with Cait.

Spencer’s head was reeling. He had just been made head of the History department. Not only did it come with a much bigger office, but he now had a secretary and a small budget for staff. He was sitting in his new office when his phone went off.

“Doctor Grant?”

“Yes. This is Spencer Grant. What can I do for you?”

“My name is Tyler Cort and I’m with the Columbus Police Department. Do you have a daughter? And can you tell me the last time you saw her?” Spencer’s heart skipped several beats and he had to clear his throat several times before he trusted himself to speak. The things roaring through his head were dark, bloody and scary. Meggie, his little girl, was hurt.

“This morning at around eleven. Is she all right? Please tell me. I’m leaving right now; just...please tell me that she’s fine.” Spencer was leaving his office and out the door before he realized that something had to have happened to Cait or she would have called him. “The woman, Caitlynne O’Malley, is she hurt too.”

“Everyone is fine, sir. There was an...an altercation at the mall and Detective O’Malley was brought in for questioning. Your daughter is here with us, but we don’t have permission to let her go with anyone else. Your mother is having a hard time adjusting to that, by the way, and the rest of your family is...I don’t suppose you could come down here and rescue us, could you?” Spencer leaned against his car. An altercation at the mall was not even close to what had been running around inside of his head. He grinned when he thought about his family ganging up on the department, especially his mother.

“Yes, I’m leaving right now. Can you tell me what the altercation was about, Officer? I may want to leave them all there for the night.”

“Seems your wife and your girlfriend had a fight over the little girl.”
