That evening…

“Polly and Seth have invited me to live with them. So there’s a little light at the end of the tunnel,” Angie told Jed. “I just hope it’s not on the front end of a train.”

“Do you ever look at anything without doubts? Mama was going to invite you to live with us,” he told her. “See, you have more than one choice.”

“I’m overwhelmed by all this kindness to someone who is a stranger.”

“You might have been a stranger at one time, but you’re not anymore.”

Touched by the sentiment, she took a step closer, laid her head on his shoulder. His arms found their way around her waist and shoulder hugged her.

“Thank you,” she whispered. “I feel so secure right now.”

“You are safe. Nothing is going to hurt you while I’m around.”

She leaned back and looked into the dark pools of his eyes, seeing nothing but warmth and affection. Putting her hand behind his head, she pulled his lips to hers. The dry and cracked skin was warm to the touch.

“Mm,” a throaty hum escaped her mouth, as she pressed herself against him. They broke the kiss. When she looked into his face again, she saw a look of dismay.

“I’m sorry,” he apologized. “I shouldn’t have let that happen. I shouldn’t have taken advantage like that.”

“If you remember, I started it. I wanted you to kiss me. Didn’t you want to?”

“Well, yes, but a gentleman doesn’t take advantage of a lady.”

“When the lady wants it to happen, there’s nothing wrong with it. It felt good. And right.”
