One Week Later

At the driveway, I greeted Ellen Sue with my best smile. She emerged from the cab with the same glow to her face she’d had since she came into our lives. Taking long strides to her, I reached the only motherly figure I had known since losing my grandmother in a tight embrace.

“Thank you for coming, Ellen Sue,” I said on a sigh before kissing the top of her head.

“Anything for my boys,” she told me proudly, and it was true; she’d do anything for us. And we’d do anything for her.

“Enissa is on the beach. She doesn’t know I have to leave. I’ll be back in a few days. Keep the alarm on even when Case is here.”

She nodded. “Will he get here before you leave?”

“Onyx was briefing him, and his flight will arrive in an hour or so. As long as he’s not delayed then yes, I will still be here.”

“What do I tell the woman on the beach?”

I smirked, thinking of the beauty in her bikini. “Whatever you’d like, Ellen Sue.”

Ellen Sue didn’t know where I was going. The easy and safe assumption was I had work to attend to. Only the work I was handling wasn’t for my day job. I trusted Ellen Sue not to share my deepest secrets. I also knew exactly how much information about Enissa I had shared with the woman, and the amount of information Ellen Sue could divulge wasn’t much. Ellen Sue wasn’t one to ask questions of us. Therefore, she accepted whatever information we gave to her and would never betray any of us. Ellen Sue didn’t care, not because she was heartless but because she never asked us any questions. She accepted the four of us as her boys, and she did what we asked without asking for the whys, the hows, or any other details. She trusted us, and we trusted her.

I took her purse and carry-on bag from her, and we walked in stride together into the house. Ellen Sue had her own room here with a closet full of clothes, a bathroom stocked with her favorite toiletries, and she knew her way around. This made traveling easy because she only ever had to bring a carry-on wherever she went. It was one of the locked doors that I didn’t allow Enissa to go into.

“I’ll leave your purse here,” I told her as I sat it on a table in the living space. “I need to go check on Case’s flight, and I’ll take this to your room.”

She nodded, and I took the bag to her room then retreated to my office.

Leaving here sucked.

It had never bothered me like this before. Alas, I had a minor bump in the road that needed my personal attention. On the off chance Beacon found out where Enissa was and decided to grow some balls and show up here, I had Onyx send our head of security down. The updates I had received alerted me Beacon knew I wasn’t in Arizona with her, so he would be digging.
