“She left?” My voice rose to a level Caroline didn’t approve of, if the look she gave me was any indication. “Sorry,” I mumbled, pacing back and forth in the kitchen.

How could she fucking leave again?

We ended up staying in the field for two nights due to the extensive fix needed on the fence. When Ryke called to tell us the fence was down, he wasn’t joking. We’d spent the first day scrapping the old parts to see what we could still use.

The whole situation didn’t sit well with me. How did one segment look like a tornado went through, but nothing else was destroyed? It was as if someone deliberately drove a fucking Mack truck through it and then left.

I worked Ryke and Nate so hard, by the time we left, they were ready to hang me up by my gloves. But my mind was consumed with getting back to Mirabelle and finishing what we’d started. I sure as hell didn’t expect to walk in and find out she’d left the same day we did. The bad part was, I didn’t know where she went. She’d told Caroline she needed to do something and asked to borrow the ranch car. Apparently, she was considerate enough to call and let Caroline know she arrived safely and would be in touch.

I dialed her cell, cursing under my breath when it went straight to voicemail.

“Ow!” The smack to the back of my head made my brain rattle, a hurt like only Caroline could do.

“Now, Silas, you need to go clean up, do your chores, and calm down. That girl is fine. Obviously just needed to get away.” She scowled at me before mumbling, “Although, with the way you’re acting, I can’t imagine why she’d want to come back.”

It took everything in me not to stomp off. One of Caroline’s many talents was to make me feel like a little boy, and I sure as hell didn’t need to give her another reason to smack me again.

Nerves knotted my stomach and made my palms sweat. A shower was needed to clear my head before I did something stupid. I thought I’d finally made a breakthrough with Mirabelle. That kiss was more than I could’ve dreamed. Her presence alone set my thoughts on fire. I was conflicted most of the time, not wanting to do or say anything that would make her run again. However, the moment our lips touched, everything was as it should be. In a week full of complete chaos, she was suddenly calming the storm.

Well, right up until she’d run again. I had to figure out a way to get her back. Now that I had a taste of her, I couldn’t live without her.

After cleaning up and getting dressed, I headed out to the barn. Nate was putting things away, while Ryke already had a colt in the ring.

“What’s wrong?” Nate asked, furrowing his brows.

I must’ve really looked bad if Nate noticed. He wasn’t usually too aware of people’s moods until it was too late.
