Chapter Ten

Jon knew the moment Cassie arrived at the cabin. He noticed every little thing she brought into it too, from the empty suitcases to the clothes she’d put in the dressers in both bedrooms. Some were hers, and some obviously belonged to the twins. She’d brought extra pillows for the bed and more firewood than this cottage needed for an entire winter.

And the food. Wow, she’d brought in a lot of non-perishable food.

Jon realized how worried she was about the Larry Glassman she’d told him about as he watched more and more being brought into the house. She’d told him more about the man and how abusive and controlling he was. According to her, Larry Glassman stood over six feet tall and had biceps made of steel.

He didn’t have a nice bone in his body, and he’d shot two people in a gas station one night while he was drunk. Neither of them died, so he’d been eligible for parole after twelve years in prison.

The articles Jon had read had labeled Larry as a terrible person, but he’d gotten parole, because he followed all the rules and the judge found him worthy of re-entering society.

Jon didn’t know anyone in Chicago to help feed him inside information, but Cassie said she still had loyal friends there, and they’d told her nothing.

The front door opened, and Jon turned from his thoughts the same way he turned from the vase of red roses on the kitchen counter. “Hey, beautiful,” he said, smiling at her. He’d enjoyed this last month with her immensely, and he’d even gotten used to getting up at four-thirty in the morning.

Sure, it made his evenings exhausting, but the only person who’d noticed lived in another remote cabin on family land, and Phoenix had stopped asking Jon to dinner after the first couple of times Jon had declined.

“Happy Valentine’s Day,” she said, closing and locking the door behind her. She held a red-wrapped package in her hands, and she smiled at him in that half-sexy, half-flirty way she had that set his blood on fire.

“Mm, Happy Valentine’s Day,” he said, taking her into his arms and kissing her. Jon loved kissing her. Holding her close and breathing in the sweet scent of her hair. She claimed that came from all the sugar in the bakery, as he normally only saw her in the mornings after her shift in the shop.

But tonight, she smelled just as sugary, and he knew her last class had ended at three. He slid his hands over her shoulders and up into her hair, taking the ponytail holder out so her dark waves streamed through his fingers.

He loved her hair. Loved the way she laid in his arms while they cuddled on the couch after breakfast in the morning. Loved how she’d told him stories about her mother, her time at culinary school, her trials in raising the twins for the past fifteen months.

He loved learning what she liked to eat and what she didn’t.
