“What the hell is that?” I grumble, throwing my robe on. I trip in the dark and stumble around for a second before clicking my bedside lamp on. Then I hear the doorbell again. I glance at the clock as I head toward the door. Jesus! My thoughts immediately go to Raegan—something must have happened.

When I get to the door, I see the porch is lit up because of the motion sensor light. I peek out the peephole and see Mike standing out there, his eyes on the door. As if he knows I’m looking at him, he says, “It’s just me. Open up.”

I punch in the code to turn the alarm off then swing the door open. “What’s wrong? Has something happened?”

“No, everything’s fine, but I want to talk,” he says as he steps inside.

He rushes past me before I’ve registered what he said. Not only am I half asleep, but I’m struck dumb by how beautiful he is. Dressed in all black, his hair styled into a neat faux hawk, he’s the most glorious thing I’ve ever seen… and he’s standing in my living room.

I’m trying to wake up. Get my damn wits about me. “I’m sorry?” I say, still a little stunned by his presence in my home, and my heart is still racing from waking so abruptly.

“I’m sorry for barging in but we need to talk. Is Raegan in bed?”

“She’s not here. She’s spending the night with her friend Maisie. How did you find me?”

“You sent me the journals and your return address was on the package.”

I shake my head. “Right, sorry, I’m still half asleep.”

“Are you awake enough to talk? There’re so many things we need to clear the air about—and it’s probably a good thing that Raegan isn’t here.” He’s looking around, his eyes drifting from one thing to another, trying to make things out in the dark. I reach over and click the lamp on, making him squint. Even as distracted as he is, he keeps talking as if he knows exactly what he’s doing. “Because, after a long talk with my sister, I’ve decided clearing the air is definitely something we need to do.” He points to a photo on the mantle and says, “Where was this taken?”

I peek around him to see which photo he’s talking about. “That was taken on a hike with Rae. We were in the Santa Cruz Mountains.” I quickly scan the room to make sure it’s tidy enough. I wasn’t exactly expecting company. Thankfully, everything’s in its place. “I’m sorry, but what do you want to talk about in the middle of the night?”

He glances at me over his shoulder. “Rae? Is that what you call her?”

“Yeah, sometimes.”

He points to the photo again. “I used to live there,” he says, ignoring my question. He moves onto the next photo. “Give me a tour. I want to see your space.”

“Um, okay. This is the living room.” I lift my arms to indicate the room we’re standing in.
