 COLIN HAD BARELY closed his eyes when the first light peeked through the windshield. He'd scarcely moved when Melissa bolted upright, practically gasping for air.

  "You're okay", he said, keeping his voice level so he didn't give away his true level of concern.

"He was here" she said, out of breath. Her gaze drifted around.

"It's just me". Between her flinching every time he reached for her unexpectedly and the nightmare,he was begining to see the true scars from the past year. Richard had to be stopped. Colin was starting to get a better picture of what her life must've been like.

   Melissa relaxed on an exhale when she seemed certain that she was safe. She fumbled around for the lever on her right and then repositioned her seat in the upright position.

Colin grabbed the pack from the backseat and pulled out bottled waters, toothpaste and toothbrush. Seein

    Colin put his arms around her waist and, in one motion,swept her beside him. Their outer thighs touched and he felt the same trill she did based on her reaction to the contact. "He was all I had growing up and he did the best he could", she said, and her voice held less sorrow now. "Without him,I was afraid of being alone. "You had me,My family", he said in a low voice. He understood not being able to turn her back on her father. Colin was even more grateful for his own parents in comparison."I know. But how could I turn to you?". She asked. "We were building a life together, Melissa" he said."You don't think I would've understood about your father? Helped him?" "Please don't be upset. I was embarrassed . I was marrying you. Your family is perfect. They have principals and do the right thing for ot

    COLIN'S BROTHERS WOULD arrive son and there was a lot to do in order to get ready. He'd spent the balance of the day napping are around the cabins as though their live depended on it. They did. He'd returned his steps several times,memorizing every tree,every possible escape route,and every potential hazard. There was a pond on the far Eastside of the site. A creek cut across the property in a bear straight line, running North to south. Just below camp,it pooled into a sizable swimming hole. Colin remembered the bright orange vests counselors had strapped on then before allowing them time in the water. A set of tepees clustered on the west side of camp. The camp was straight forward,a throwback to simpler days. Or maybe it just seemed simple when all Colin had had to think about was keeping the twins out of trouble.

    WHETHER HE LIKED it or not,Colin had a shadow. Based on the wat he stopped every once in a while to pull her into an embrace or plant a sweet kiss on her lips, Melissa didn't think he minded. Her heart wanted to believe that what was happening between then was real again,that it was something they could build on."You should probably try to get some rest before my brothers arrive", he said. "There's no telling when Richard will show now that my brothers have our out word". "What about law enforcement?" She asked."We'll get all that information when my brothers arrive,which should be soon", he said."It makes me nervous that we haven't been able to make contact with them", she said."They won't find if it's not safe", colin said, setting up a sleeping bag and a rifle in the woods near the campsite.

    "Stay low", Colin said to Melissa as he saw an occasional flash of light as a vehicle twisted and turned along the road leading to the camp. He'd already heard the Jeep's engine as it wound up the road. The horn honked twice. Then, nothing for two beats before a third beep sounded. "They're here". Colin pooped to his feet before offering a hand up to Melissa. She accepted the help and then he held on to one of her hands as they walked to the Jeep.Colin let go long enough to embrace his brothers, Joshua and Austin. "Where's Tyler?"Joshua must've seen the panic in Melissa's eyes because he said, "Angelina is doing great and she's safe on the ranch"."Thank you", Melissa said."As for Tyler, he's hanging around at the camp entrance. Ryder stayed back to care for his pregnant wife and offer reinforcements at the ranch". Joshua help up his cell phone. "We'

    " I REMEMBER THIS PLACE", Joshua said to Colin as he studied the area from the center point, the fire pit. "We were kids the last time we were here", Colin said. "Not too much has changed".Colin hadn't been sure what kind of reaction Melissa would get from his brothers and was grateful they'd welcomed her with open arms. He had a lot of catching up to do with them. Hell,first he needed to figure out his and Melissa's relationship for himself. All he knew was that he wanted her in his life. The details of what that meant would have to come later. "That's a good thing", Joshua said. "We don't have much sun left. I'll want to walk the perimeter before it gets dark". "Someone followed us most of the way here. We let him believe we didn't know". Austin said. "Lost him as we got close by cutting through Denver. Joshua had worked for Denver PD be

She thought about how their interaction caused powerful Stroms___stroms bug enough to produce tornadoes that could devastate an entire town. Richard was cold___ he'd tried to keep her in his icy grip. And Colin was the opposite. The thought of those systems crashing into each other,the fallout that would follow,took her breath away.

    "He's asking for you", Philip said, motioning for her to follow him. She glanced at his brothers as she hurried behind Philip. It had to be a good sign that he was talking. She'd take what she could get. Melissa had expected to feel differently as he watched the cruiser pull away with Richard in the back. She'd thought she'd feel lighter somehow. Except that she didn't. Not while Colin lay on a stretcher being worked on by two EMTs. Her life had blown up before her eyes. She knew that Colin could never truely trust her again, but she loved him with all her heart and had to be okay. "You were so cold", she said, her chest squeezing at seeing him on that stretcher,wrapped in thick blankets. "I'll be warmer if you'll slip under the covers with me", he said with that wry grin that was so charming. His gaze fixed on a spot behind her. &nbs

    Richard made to knock Colin off him. Colin fisted his hand and belted Richard. His jaw snapped right and he spit blood. Colin could hear footsteps thundering from behind and voices that he recongnized as his brothers'. He listened for the sweet sounds of Melissa's voice and tensed when he didn't hear it. He refused to give Rancic the satisfaction of seeing his fear."You're about to be arrested and face your crimes. Know this. If you or anyone you know ever messes with my family again from either side of the bare that you're about to send a very long time getting to know,there won't be place in Earth you can hide from me".
