KENTUCKY HADN’T BEEN surprised to find him gone when she awoke. She’d known it was coming. What had surprised her was the note.

Although he’d been gone now for a month and no one had heard a damn thing from him. Not even Eric.

It would be easy to think that he’d exorcised his demons and now he was just done with them and everything from Winchester. It was what it looked like on the outside.

But she knew Sean better than that.

She was worried something had happened to him, felt it in her gut with a sure knowing the same as she’d known her aunt had died before she got home from school the day she passed.

Kentucky was so sure that she’d badgered Eric into using his connections to find out if he’d made it back yet.

Apparently, the mission he’d been called on had been open-ended. It was to continue until they ran out of funding or the mission was accomplished.

Which in Kentucky’s mind meant no one had heard from him and he was dead.

It would almost be better if it were that easy, but she knew it wasn’t. She knew he was still alive and felt it in her bones. She needed to do something to help him, but she didn’t know what.

It didn’t help that she’d been sick as a dog for the past week. She could barely keep anything down except pizza and sour gummy worms, and that wasn’t exactly the picture of health.

“Thanks, Rach. You’re a gem. Are you sure you want to sit here and eat with me?” she said over the small round table covered in red gingham that sat in her kitchen. “I could be contagious. This flu is a real bastard.”

“Honey,” Rachel started, “I don’t think you have the flu.” Rachel pursed her lips.

“Well, what else could it be? Food poisoning? I’ve had it for a long time.”

“Yeah, not that either.” Rachel looked at her expectantly.

“What are you...?” Kentucky raised a brow. “Um, no. We were so careful. There is no way I’m pregnant.”

“Are you sure? The only way that’s one hundred percent foolproof is to not let him park his car in your garage, if you know what I mean.”

“Of cour—” Shiiiiit. The last two times they’d had sex, he hadn’t worn a condom. She had been planning to go to the pharmacy for the morning-after pill and she just...hadn’t. “Oh my God, Rachel.”

“Hey, don’t freak out. Everything is fine. No matter what happens, it will all be okay and I’m here for you. Whether that means I go with you to the doctor once—” she
