Chapter Twelve

A few weeks passed. Isabel had every day of the week scheduled. Most of the week was spent at Royce’s and Clay’s house. A few of those days she cleaned, the rest she made meals for the men or played with Tommy. Two days a week she spent at the Collins Ranch helping their housekeeper, Gina. One day a week she helped Carol make bread as part of her rent. Isabel had argued that it wasn’t fair, that she shouldn’t have part of her rent paid for helping a friend, but Carol won. She complained about how her back had been injured and hurt, and it was a godsend to get help.

Isabel wasn’t quite sure she believed Carol. There had been a twinkle in her eye she couldn’t hide when she’d said it, and there was no evidence to show she’d injured her back. She let it go because she knew her company was welcomed, she had so much to thank this woman for, and it made Carol happy.

While she was at the diner, one of the men took Tommy so he wouldn’t get bored, and she liked how bonded they had become spending so much time together.

They ate every meal together, lunch and supper at home at the ranch. They would meet for breakfast at the café. She wasn’t blind to the fact her belongings were slowly moving to the ranch, and they were spending more and more time there.

Isabel had given in on so many things. One was they were driving her around. She actually liked knowing someone was with her who could deal with something that happened. Every time they took them home at night, the whole ride into town, they’d ask her to move out to the ranch with them.

“I don’t want to start something until my situation is settled,” she would argue. Both men would frown but not say another word. She knew she didn’t have long before they just moved them, and she’d have to accept it because she knew deep down she really wanted it.

Isabel enjoyed going to the Collins Ranch more since Sara, their new nanny, moved there to take care of their daughter, Callie. They had become fast friends, and the children had already grown close.

Late in the afternoon one day, Isabel came in the kitchen door and stopped short. Both men stood with their arms crossed. Royce was leaning against the cupboards, and Clay stood in the doorway with his legs spread. She sat down her purse and truck keys. “Now I know I’m not late, Carol and I were done early, so what’s the problem? It’s not Tommy, is it? Where is he?”

“No, this is not about Tommy, and he’s at the Collins’.” Her gaze swung to the doorway when Clay spoke. “We got a call from our brother.”

A frown puckered her brows. “Your brother? What for?”

“We talked to him about your situation.”

Isabel took an instinctive step toward her purse. Her first thought was to protect Tommy, and that meant running again.
