“Thanks, Snipe.”

“Did you really just call the Van Winkle County Sheriff Snipe?”

It was the following morning, and they were still marooned—very happily, in Prent’s opinion—but Miranda had to leave. Early that morning, she’d gotten a frantic call from a patient reporting preterm contractions.

Miranda had sent the woman to the hospital and assured her she’d be there as soon as possible. Prent suspected the patient was Lila Davenport since Miranda revealed that Sheriff Kyle Sammons was already on the way to the patient’s house to personally transport her and her husband to the emergency room.

If not for that emergency, Miranda said she would’ve been more than content to stay with Prent, canceling her appointments and waiting for the ice to melt. But he had known that their paradise would be short-lived; she was a doctor, and there was a real world out there with all its problems and needs.

Over the course of the past day and a half, they had made love more times than Prent could now count, dividing their time between upstairs and downstairs.

The previous morning had been spent mostly in the bedroom upstairs. After three sex sessions in that cold room, each increasing in heat between them but doing nothing to elevate the actual temperature of the space, they finally retreated downstairs to the fireplace. Prent had to restart the barely smoldering fire but soon had it blazing with several more logs and a lot of old staves. They cuddled, ate, and made love once more during the next hours, which blended into the dimness of evening.

Emotionally and physically re-bonding with Miranda had been the closest thing to heaven Prent had ever experienced.

“Yeah, I know him,” Prent said as he put down his phone. They were sitting in the kitchen eating a late breakfast. “Grew up together as kids before I went to boarding school. He said he’d be here within the half hour to get you and deliver you to the county line. You’re sure Kyle Sammons will be there?”

“I have no doubt about it,” Miranda said right before she took a sip of coffee, confirming his suspicion about the patient’s identity.

He hoped Lila and the baby would be all right. He didn’t know Lila well although she was an Old Garnet owner. But he did know Bo and felt sorry for what the man likely was going through at that moment.

His thoughts turned to his son, then to Miranda. They’d had several discussions about the child, including how Prent could incorporate the boy into his life, where he might go to preschool, and how to introduce him to friends and family. They’d even picked out a bedroom for him and had walked around the house, spotting things that needed to be childproofed.

Prent was amazed at how easily Miranda had accepted the likelihood of his son being in his life and had actively tried to help with the transition. Being able to talk with someone who appreciated the challenges ahead rather than berate him for his mistakes was priceless.
