To escape the despicable photographer and buy herself some time, Amber had agreed to write the book under an alias, but driving back to Brett's compound she'd seen only two options. Tell Brett everything, and cope with any number of nightmare scenarios that followed, or disappear. Either way she'd hurt him again, and there would be no forgiveness for such an ugly betrayal. Driving through the gates and up to the house, she'd realized Brett's truck was still at the barn.

"At least I'll have some time to get myself together," she'd muttered, grabbing her bag and climbing from her car. "I'm going to have a shot of vodka, and then I guess I'll start packing."

Fighting tears, she'd started up the steps towards the front door, but paused, and turning her head in the direction of the garden, she'd recalled Brett's comment.

If I'm stressed, I sit here for a while and the stress goes away.

Hoping she might find comfort there too, and wanting to see the totem pole one more time, she'd trotted back down the steps. Though she'd started down the path at a quick clip, once inside the garden she'd walked slowly and with reverence. Reaching the pole, she'd traveled her eyes from the owl, to the bear, what she thought was a wolf, and the soaring eagle at the top, then stepping forward, she pressed herself against the warm wood.

"I've made such a mess of everything," she murmured, giving into tears, and sliding to the ground, she'd brought her knees to her chest. "It's hopeless. What the hell am I going to do?"

With a heavy sob, she'd dropped her head into her arms.

A breeze had swirled around her.
