Chapter 20

“Where are we?” Elle asked as Jarrad stopped near a small stream. She could hear the clean meltwater trickling between the rocks.

“A rescue cabin. They’re all over the mountain so climbers and hikers can find shelter if they get lost or caught in bad weather. We keep them stocked with blankets, canned food, fresh water and firewood all year round,” he said with pride.

“Did you say firewood and blankets?” Her voice wavered as she shivered from the cold. The temperature had dropped to near zero during their hike to the cabin.

“Sorry. Let’s get you warm.” He carried her to the door of the cabin and used his boot to release the latch before nudging it open with his shoulder.

“Is this what it’s like to be carried over the threshold?” Elle’s attempt at humor was met with a puzzled expression. “Never mind. Just light the fire, will you? I’m freezing.”

“How come you’re not cold,” she added as an afterthought. “You’ve only wearing a tee. At least I’ve got a sweatshirt and hoodie.”

“Army training. We’re trained to ignore pain. And cold, apparently.”

“Like Rambo?” she asked with a cheeky grin.

“Who?”

Elle rolled her eyes. Maybe it was a mountain man thing. Or a city girl thing. Either way, he wasn’t getting it. “Forget it,” she said as they entered the cabin and he made his way to the lamp and matches set out on a table near the door.
