Chapter 13

Liam hesitated at the door for a good few minutes. The key to the door burned a hole in his pocket, and his meager belongings in the bag on his back were an unwelcome reminder of what he was bringing to the Double D.

“You can go in,” Eli prompted. Liam was startled at the words; he hadn’t even heard Eli come up the metal stairs. So much for being aware of his surroundings.

He stepped over the threshold and was immediately out of the daylight and into the dim interior of his new home. Eli didn’t follow, and Liam turned to face him expectantly.

“Can I come in?” Eli asked politely.

“Of course you can,” Liam answered in surprise. “It was your home.”

“And it’s yours now, your space, and no one comes in without an invite.”

“In case they’re vampires,” Robbie joked from behind Eli. He reached past and held out an envelope. Liam opened it and a welcome to your new home card fell into his hands along with a gift card for Target.

“Thought you could buy yourself your own stuff to go around the place.” Robbie waved a hand around the place. “Knickknacks and frames and all,” he said.

“And my gift is in here,” Eli said and pulled the large closet doors open dramatically to reveal clothes of every color crammed into the space: pants, jeans, shirts, T-shirts, sweat pants and tops—even a jacket. He gestured to the bottom where shoes sat in a neat row. “Guessed on the size compared to your boots,” he said. “But I can get any size you want.”

“I can’t take that,” Liam said immediately. “I don’t need charity.” As soon as he said the words he wanted to pull them back, but Eli didn’t look offended.

“Yes, you can. It’s all stuff from shoots, some of it may be too big on you, but you can just pass anything you don’t want back to me. I get clothes left after sessions all the time and a lot of the fashion models are your height and weight, all sleek and tall. Right, we’re going. Just wanted to welcome you to your new home.”

“We hope you’ll be as happy here as we were,” Robbie added softly. He stepped toward Liam, then gave him a manly back-slapping hug before moving aside and letting Eli do the same. When they closed the door after leaving abruptly, Liam was inside his place with his things and he didn’t know what to feel first, terror or excitement. The bed was solid wood, and Jack had gotten a new mattress in for him. There was navy bedding on the quilt and the place smelled of laundry detergent and sunshine. Two windows gave different perspectives of the ranch. One faced the ranch house, the other the horses. In front of that window was a small square table and two chairs.

Liam placed his bag on the table and went to look at the rest of the place. He was familiar with the small shower room with its toilet and sink because he’d used the shower before, but he was less so with the kitchen.
