Chapter 51

• COLBY DEW POV
• When I get home, Bentley is already there. He's curled up by the fireplace in my office, sound asleep in my big armchair. He has bad dreams sometimes, just like me. And every time he does, he comes and finds me. We don't talk, even though I know he wants to.
• It's not the warmth of the fire he's looking for. It's not my company, either. There's a picture of his mom, my sister Sylvia, on the mantel. That's what he comes here for.
