Chapter Three

Lizbeth sighed heavily and, against her better judgment, said, "You need to let him back in." She held up a hand to stop Diandra's protests as she watched her puff up in anger. "I know you're furious with him, and you have every right to be, but you petitioned Eamon to save his life. Now you're going to tell Jonah he's on his own? Is this what you truly think is best? If it is, I'll support you 100%, but you need to be sure." She leaned forward, planting a gentle kiss first on Diandra's lips and then, guessing since the baby had still not reappeared, she placed a kiss on the top of RaeLynn's curls.

Diandra visibly deflated as she stepped aside, letting Lizbeth past her to open the door. Jonah still stood on the doorstep, one hand raised as if he considering knocking again. "As much as it pains me to say this, you had better come in." She stepped aside to allow him to enter just as RaeLynn reappeared in her mother's arms, peering shyly out from amongst Diandra's hair.

Walking stiffly, as though hating the thought of him being at her back, Diandra led Jonah to her parlor. He was slightly red in the face with anger and Diandra took a moment to read his thoughts as they walked- how dare she lead him through this house like a stranger when this had been his home for nine years? He choked back his rage, acknowledging to himself that he needed her help even if it galled him that he had to ask for it to begin with. Instead he forced himself to concentrate on the sight of his daughter. What a little looker she was! Those strawberry curls, those gorgeous lavender eyes that were just a slightly different shade of purple from her mother's own lilac-colored eyes. From head to toe, his daughter was absolutely amazing to look at.

He grimaced down at himself. He was certainly nothing special at the moment. He'd found a spot to conceal himself while on the run, but it hadn't been clean. How long had it been since his last shower? Jonah shuddered when he realized he needed two hands to count. When had he brushed his teeth last? He ran his tongue over his teeth and gagged a little, realizing that was more of a distant memory than his last shower. He looked at his jeans- they were ripped at the knees, the cuffs were torn in a way that was obviously from wear and tear and not a fashion statement, and they were covered in grime from his travels. His shirt was torn at the hem, almost as dirty as the jeans, and it smelled twice as ripe. He'd kill for a stick of deodorant right now. Living life on the run was a bitch!

Diandra and Lizbeth seated themselves on the loveseat with RaeLynn nestled between them, forcing Jonah to take the overstuffed pink chair in the parlor. While Lizbeth watched him coldly Diandra visibly winced as he seated all his filth in her pristine chair.
