It hurt him to see her in so much pain. She’d been given a pain shot, but it either hadn’t taken affect yet or wasn’t strong enough. That just added to his guilt. It had to be his arrival into her world that got her into trouble. Which meant someone from the drug property had seen him parked close to the property and had followed him back here. That just pissed him off even more. Now he had to find them and stop them. They could not be allowed to get away with shooting an innocent woman. If they wanted to pick a fight with him, then he was all for it. But it needed to be with him and not those he knew.

Especially not someone he was starting to care for. That alone made her special, as his heart had been empty for a long time. When he’d finally found a woman who made him stop in his tracks, like hell he would let anyone else take her away from him.

The question now was, was this over? Had the last man died? Or were there more to take his place?

His vote was, more men would be coming …

So he had to get to them first. The police had already raided the drug base but had obviously missed someone or many someones …

Ethan drove to her house and turned his truck so she was closest to the front door. He put the truck into Park, shut off the engine and raced around to her side, opening up the passenger door and helping her out. They could hear the dogs barking inside the house; then suddenly they raced out the doggy door and barked at the side of the house behind the fence.

As soon as they opened the front door, the dogs came barreling inside to greet them. Ethan brushed them back, giving the commands to calm down, but they were as untrained as any dog he’d ever seen.

She crouched, laughing, saying hi to the dogs but keeping herself from getting injured. “Don’t even bother trying. I’ve been gone for too long, and they know I’m hurt, so it only makes sense they need reassurance.”

He agreed, and, when she reached up for his hand, he helped her into the living room. “Now do you want to sit down?” he asked quietly. “Or do you want to go up to bed?”

“I’ll just sit in the living room for a moment,” she said, her voice faint. He watched as she stumbled to the couch. She collapsed and groaned as her shoulder was jolted hard. He gently reached a hand to the side of her cheek. “Take it easy. You’re home now.”

She nodded. “And damn glad of it too. I’ll need painkillers soon.”

“Not for a while,” he said. “They gave you a shot in the hospital.

She speared him with a look that made him grin. He loved her spunk. She had a temper, and he could appreciate that. She also wasn’t shy about letting him know how she felt.
