“It was a rough week at work,” Aspen exclaims, extending her feet onto the railing. We’re sitting outside at Lincoln’s house because Turner is going to sleep. Ramona appears with another cocktail and sinks down into a chair bundling her jacket tighter. It’s a cool night, but not Colorado winter cold. It’s been so long since my conversation with Rufio and the text message, that I decided to stop worrying over it and just live my life.

I sigh. “We’re just catching up after taking time off after… the, well, you know,” I say.

Ramona’s new boy toy, Vin, went back to Italy, so she’s been hanging out with me more. Though I have a feeling she’s working up to telling me she’s going to be traveling again, but doesn’t know how to do it. She sold all of her new work at her show, and even she knows she’d be a fool to pass up the momentum she has in our area. Vin, though. I can tell the man might win the fight. He treats her well, and his best feature is that he would never cheat on her, nor has he ever cheated on a girlfriend in the past. Ramona and I did our homework to be sure.

“Do you miss your mountain house?” Ramona asks, sipping her Hot Toddy, keeping the mug by her face for warmth.

“Being here with Lincoln and Turner is better than any mountain house,” I reply honestly. “After what happened there, it wasn’t the same anyway.”

The stars flicker in the black sky. “This is the happiest I’ve ever been.”

Aspen stands up to lean on the banister to admire the sky as well. Ramona gasps when she takes too big of a sip. “I can tell. But I also know you enough to know you are terrified right now.”

Oh, little does she know. She’s also close to the mark. “I am only scared because I’ve never had this much to lose before. It’s like instead of doling out good things little by little, I’m getting everything, all at once and I’m not sure how to hang on to it. Like properly that is.”

“I never held onto Stavros and he kept coming back. Then again, what you have with Lincoln is different than anything I’ve seen before. He was made for you. And Turner.”

I choke on a breath. “Is my nephew. Of course we have a connection. Turner is my real family. He has my blood. He’s the only person I’ll claim happily at this point. You know how I feel about fate,” I announce, draining the rest of my own drink. Aspen and Ramona respond in the affirmative at the same time. “Well, do you think things happen for a reason. Like the crazy things that have happened with the dumb DNA test and Rena, and her being in love with Lincoln? Like, is it all connected?” I’m buzzed and rambling. I refuse to drink too much when I’m the adult responsible for Turner.

Chonk starts barking aggressively and my heart pounds in response.
