Abby opened her kitchen cabinet and handed Griffin her emergency flashlight, her hand still shaking from the sudden surge of adrenaline.

“Thanks,” he said. “I’m gonna take a look around upstairs in the loft, check out the balcony to make sure nothing’s fallen on the roof.”

“Be careful.” She felt compelled to say it, though she trusted Griffin’s skilled eye and experience. The man had weathered many storms—­tracked them, followed them, ridden them out. But that had been the closest lightning bolt Abby had ever witnessed, and she couldn’t shake the unease growing in her abdomen. She tried to see out the windows again, but the constant rain kept her vision limited to the cobblestone steps that curved around her little cottage.

“I will.” Griffin touched her cheek. “With the power out, we won’t be able to see much until morning, but it’s not safe to go poking around outside with only a flashlight. Don’t worry, okay? Whatever mess is waiting for us tomorrow, we’ll fix it together. The worst has already passed.”

“Okay.” A word she spoke but didn’t mean. Not in the slightest.

Though she couldn’t see what kind of damage lurked beyond her darkened windows, she was certain whatever was to come was far from over.
