Chapter 14

After they’d done all they could for the sheep, Chloe looked around for a place they could set up their tents; it wouldn’t be comfortable but at least it would be relatively dry. But then she spotted an opening in the rock through the sheets of rain still coming down, not daring to hope that she’d found a cave, she made her way across the muddy ground.

To her relief, the opening did turn out to be a cave just big enough for them to take shelter in. After they’d seen to the horses, they took their gear into the cave pleased to see that someone had not only been using it as shelter, but had left them an ample supply of firewood and even a stack of supplies. Shrugging out of several layers of their wet clothes, they built a fire which soon had the little cave warm enough that they both began to stop shivering.

Silently they unpacked the gear they’d brought with them, then dug though the pile in the back of the cave. “There’s enough food here for a few days.” Chloe said, knowing that they could easily be stuck here for far longer than that. “But it’s not going to be enough.”

For the first time since he’d left the ranch, Jack understood how crazy it had been to come up here. But one look at Chloe’s face told him that he needed to be the strong one right then, she’d gotten them across the river to safety, it was up to him to keep them alive. Chloe had a panicked look on her face and he was pretty sure he knew what she was thinking about.

“This is exactly what happened to my parents.” She said, her voice catching in her throat.

Jack had her in his arms so fast she didn’t have time to let the panic get the better of her. He was wet and his clothes were cold, but he still smelled like Jack and she felt better almost immediately. After he’d held her for a long time, he tipped her head up and kissed her, knowing that she needed the reassurance that everything was over between them as much as he did.

When he felt her beginning to relax, he said, “We’re going to be okay. We’ll eat this food until the weather clears, then I’m sure I’ll be able to catch us enough food to keep us alive. They know we’re up here Chloe, they’ll come for us as soon as it’s safe. It’s going to be okay.”

“Jack, it could take a week or longer for the water to recede.” Chloe desperately wanted to believe that they’d be okay, but she was frightened, knowing all too well how easily things could go wrong.

“Trust me, between the two of us we’ll be okay. You’re a strong woman Chloe, use your knowledge and I’ll use mine.” Jack said, stroking her cheek with his thumb.

Chloe took a deep breath knowing that letting her emotions get away from her was only a waste of energy.
