Chapter 13

Vincent's POV

I get back to the chemical plant where JT is. I feel like my heart could explode. The little girl that has looked at me like no one else has for three years is MY little girl. JT doesn't say anything when I walk in.

I go to my drawer and pull out a Superman T-shirt. I remember the day that Leslie gave this to me. She gave it to me last year for my birthday. She said that I was a superhero. She said Superman had nothing on me. I cried when she gave it to me. I wasn't the monster to someone. To her, I was a hero. She looked at me like no one else did.

I hug the shirt to my chest and cry. Tears stream down my face out of pure emotion. I could never comprehend how this felt. I'm a father. Those are words I didn't know if I'd ever hear.

Now, my heart is filled to the brim, but I'm also scared to death. This isn't exactly a normal situation we're in. I have to worry about if Muirfield knows about her. If they do, she's in more danger than I realized.
