Hawk sat back in his lawn chair and took a chug from his beer. Holt sat next to him and did the same. The girls sat together on the lawn, playing jacks. They were laughing and giggling, and it did his heart good to hear the sounds.

“He killed her, you know,” Holt said.

“I’m sure of it,” Hawk said. “I’m going to need help from you and the guys to keep her safe. I don’t want her to be alone.”

“What about at the bakery?” Holt asked. “It will raise more than a few eyebrows if one of us is sitting there day after day until Willis finds a way to charge Dobbs. She may be your Little right now, but tomorrow when the bakery opens and you tell her she has a bodyguard she’s going to go ballistic.”

“You got that right,” Hawk said. “You’ll probably be able to see the fireworks all over town. Any suggestions?”

“A vacation in the Bahamas sounds about right,” Holt said. “You can leave tonight.”

Hawk chuckled. The girls were slapping each other’s hands and reaching for the jacks. Then Aurora held the ball in the air, Jessica got up on her knees in an effort to take it from her.

“Careful there, young lady, you’ve got stitches, you know,” Hawk called out.

“Aurora, give her the ball,” Holt said.

“But it’s my turn!” Aurora said.

“We’d best break this up, fast, before one of them gets hurt,” Hawk said. He stood, and then he turned to his brother. “I think I have an idea.”

“I’ve heard your ideas before,” Holt said. “They don’t always work.”

“This one will.” Hawk punched his brother. “And don’t be an ass.”

“I’m the oldest, that’s my job,” Holt said. “Do you need my help on this plan?”

“Yes, I do.” Hawk laughed. “I just hope she doesn’t find out the truth.”

“So what’s the plan?”

Hawk turned his back on the girls as they continued to play. “What’s your schedule like tomorrow?”

“Why do I think I’m not going to like this?” Holt asked.

“Because you’re not,” Hawk said. He laid out his idea.

“That might work for tomorrow, but what about Tuesday?”

“One day at a time, brother. One day at a time.”
