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". Colin said through clenched teeth.

  Richard sneered. "We'll see about that".

It took pretty much everything Colin had inside him at that moment not to out his hands around that my men's neck a d choke the life out of him for what he'd done to Melissa. He

    "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

  • Fated To Love You   Why is she here?

    "I didn't approve her. I would never do that. She shouldn't be here". Cynthia Stoker,the cattleman Crime club's event coordinator,paced in the kitchen. Her fingers were a braided knot. She was responsible for the guest list at the spring fling, the annual end-of-spring fund-raiser hosted by the O'Brien family. "I know". Colin O'Brien folded his arms,hiding just how much the thought of seeing Melissa Roark__correction, Melissa Rancic__again twisted his gut. Being the fourth son of the wealthy O'Brien family and with good looks and charm to spare,he hadn't seen a lot of rejection in his life. Until her. And she'd ripped his heart out. "How'd her name get past security?' "She asked to come as Carolina Jordan's plus one,and since she wasn't listed as a threat they approved her", Cynthia said,throwing her hands in the air, worry lines bracketing her mouth. She'd worked at the ra

    A sob escaped before she could suppress it. Her eyes blurred as she navigated onto the main road into town. At least she had their daughter. She'd have to hold onto that piece of Colin for the rest of her life and let it be enough. Angelina touched a piece of Melissa's heart that could belong to no one else. She thought about how unfair it was that her daughter had never met her father,would never meet him. But then,this was the way it had to be,she reminded herself. Melissa's father was old and sick. He'd made him mistakes and they were both paying for them. If Richard had followed through on his threats,her father would live out the rest of his life in jail. She couldn't allow that to happen no matter how angry she'd become at him for his unethical business practices. And then there were the threats Richard had made about Colin and his family. The man could destroy the O'Briens if their secret was revealed. The bedrock of the family had been their parents' unw

  • Fated To Love You   You shouldn't be here

    The feds had said that Richard should be somewhere near the Canadian border by now. Melissa had been under so much duress especially in the past months since talking with the agents,that she could barely think straight. She told herself that was the reason she'd been misguided enough to think seeing Colin one more time would somehow fill the ache in her chest. Everything had spun out of control. Her relationship with the feds hadn't exactly been a friendly alliance . The only reason she'd collected evidence against Richard was because they threatened to take Angelina away from her. Ever since they'd approached her while she picked up the mail that cold January morning. She'd been walking a tightrope. Richard had been good at covering his tracks ,so culling evidence against him had been difficult. She'd eventually gathered the proof needed for the feds to get an arrest warrant. She'd risked her life,not to mention her daughte

    Melissa opened her eyes , slowly,and it was like the sun cresting in the horizon. Those violet streaks like rays,bathing darkness with light. His heart clenched and his muscles corded as her hands came up to his chest. He expected a jab or for her to push him away,but instead she double fisted his shirt and tugged him toward her. All rationale flew out of the window as Colin's pulse kicked up a few notches. He shouldn't want to dip deep and claim her heart-shaped pink lips again. He shouldn't want to pull her body flush with his. He shouldn't want to get lost inside her. And that's where he stopped. Because he could never trust her enough to close his eyes again. He pulled back,a little stunned at how easy it was to get trapped in old habits. How many times had they been in a similar position? Eager top rip off each other's clothes off and let the feelings they had for eac

    The only things keeping Melissa upright and on her feet were sheer determination and will power. The second she'd heard the news about Colin's parents she'd almost buckled. Had her worst fear been realized? Had Richard gotten to them because of some sick need to punish her? So many other questions swirled. If Mr. O'Brien was having an affair,could that be connected to the muders? Melissa quieted her internal thoughts. It was dangerous to give away her reaction to the news. She couldn't risk Colin having any suspicion about Richard. The news would spread soon enough that he was a criminal on the run ,and Melissa would be long gone. Her handler , Marshal Davis,had been keeping the situation out of the news until Melissa could disappear. Speaking of which,it was almost time to meet him. If she didn't show at their rendezvous point,he'd start looking for her and she didn't need him asking around or giving more cause for concern. There was enough red flags in the a

    "He did. All he has so far is the poison. He doesn't know how it got in their systems or what the motive for murder could be", Colin Said. "There's a slight chance that they ingested the poison accidentally". "Except what are the chances they both ingested the same thing at the same time?" She said out loud,not meaning to. She shouldn't add fuel to fire. Colin might find out the truth about his father and that would crush him. She still could scarcely believe that the man would have an affair. She'd argued with Richard, putting up more of a fight than she knew better to,refusing to accept his accusation at first. And that had led to an even bigger fight between them when he's accused her of defending the O'Briens because she still loved Colin. In order to survive,she'd had to swallow her emotions and convince Richard that she loved him. Only him. If someone had told her that she'd be able to sell that lie a year ago she would've la

    "You said Tommy was in the parking lot of Zahn Lawn Mower supply. Any idea what he was doing out there so late?" Dallas asked. Colin had only given his brother essential information. Tommy had been shot and he was at Bluff General. Richard Rancic was armed and dangerous. "Good question", There was another one that would follow. "What were you doing there?" Dallas didn't wait long to hit him with that one. That was an even better question. Colin was still trying to figure that out. Dallas didn't ask about Melissa,but the questions about her were written in his tense expression. "She ran away so fast at the Fling", he finally said. "I parked to the side,trying to decide if I was going to talk to her or not". It wasn't entirely untrue. "Then I saw her husband pull into the lot and she seem

    The ground was cold and hard. Colin's shoulder took the brunt of the fall,and that was going to hurt later. Right now, Colin's adrenaline pumped and all he could think about was stopping Richard.With a couple seconds of a head start , Richard was retreating down the hill by the time Colin got to his feet. There was no use trying to use his backup weapon. There were too many trees in the way to get off a clean shot. So, he started down after Richard . There could be a trap set up, so Colin needed to stop Richard. Now!Anger and rage fueled Colin's movements. Pouring on the speed,Colin dove down the hill , aiming at Richard,who was running at a decent clip. He couldn't outrun Colin. Richard was shot to find that out as Colin made contact just below the men's knees. Richard fell backwards and on top of Colin. The two,connected by momentum,r

    SO, rather than risk leaving her vulnerable he would go along with the plan he and his brothers had developed last night. He would stay the course. The plan they'd come up with was the best they had to work with under the circumstances. Austin had set up in an adjacent cabin with his attention directed towards the decoy boy cabin. He was visible enough that Rancic night believe he was there to protect Melissa. Colin's job was to set up at the rifle/sleeping bag location and Tyler was situated under the outdoor pavilion. Again,his attention was set to the cabin. Inside,they'd stuffed blankets on a lower bunk in the corner of the room to make it look like the shape of a woman. In reality,the only woman on the campus was in the souvenir shop ticked behind the counter sleeping. If she could wake and this whole ordeal be over without a scratch on anyone he loved,Colin wouldn't complain.Enough time had most likely passed for Rancic to have

    "MELISSA COULDN'T SLEEP. it came as no surprise. As the sun went down,the cold settled in again. She thought about the irony if spring,the clash of cold leftover from winter with the warmth from the promise of summer. 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. The more Melissa had listened to plans to take down Richard,the more tension had tightened her shoulder blades. Her life with Richard had been like living in an Arctic cave. Colin was the sun__the promise if warmth and sunshine and better days. The wind beneath her weak wings.Both if those lives were about to clash .The O'Briens had brought plenty of ammunition to the fight. So would

    " 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

    "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'

    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.

    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. The older he got,the more he was beginning to realize that life got a lot more complicated with age. He needed to
