“Hughes.” I nodded to my buddy as he leaned into the car window.

“Cowen, been a while,” he murmured while waving to Raven in the passenger seat.

“Her ex is refusing to give her daughter back,” I explained, lacing my fingers with Raven’s, trying anything to calm her down.

“Fucking douchebag,” Hughes stated while shaking his head. “Was there a court order or any paperwork that you know of?” He leaned into the car farther, addressing Raven directly.

“I haven’t gotten anything,” she replied while continually wiping her eyes.

My heart broke for her. I knew calling Hughes had been the right move. I knew making sure we did this by the book would be the best move in the long run. My body was screaming to bust down the front door and take the little girl for Raven, but that was the wrong way to handle the situation.

“Ma’am, why don’t you come with me and we’ll see if we can get to the bottom of this.”

Hughes made his way around the car to Raven.

She gaped at me, gripping my hand for dear life.

“I’ll be waiting right here for you. Hughes will make this right.”

Leaning over, I kissed her forehead before popping open the door for her.

“Thank you.”

I watched from the driver’s seat as Hughes escorted Raven up to the house.

When I saw her ex, rage exploded. White-knuckling the steering wheel, I damned the yards between me and that front door.

I kept the windows of the car up, knowing hearing the conversation would only escalate my anger. Finally, Emma was jumping into Raven’s arms.

Raven ran her daughter to the car as quickly as she could, buckling her into the back seat.

Diving in after her, Raven hugged Emma to her chest.

Without question, I put the car in gear and started to drive away.

“He said…” Raven started to explain.

Holding my hand up, I stopped her. “Let’s just get Emma home and to bed. We will have plenty of time to talk about this after that.”

Looking back through the rearview, I could see Raven’s dark eyes locking on me. As she blinked away the tears, we settled into a calm understanding for the rest of the drive to Wyatt’s house.
