Chapter 7 - The Hidden Drawing
Vincent’s gaze snapped to Grace, dark and venomous. "Watch your tongue, maid. You serve tea and scrub floors. You don't question the inner circle."
"She stays," Dominic barked, stepping directly beside Grace, shielding both her and his daughters. "Speak, Grace. What do you know?"
Grace swallowed hard, reaching into the deep pocket of her retro white apron. She pulled out a folded piece of drawing paper that little Sophie had drawn with colored crayons earlier that week.
She unfolded it, holding it up so Dominic could see.
The crayon drawing showed three little girls hiding under a bed. Standing over them was a dark figure wearing a distinct silver dragon ring on his right hand, holding a black box with a blinking red light.
Dominic’s gaze drifted down to Vincent’s right hand.
