Chapter Nine

After settling Angela in her room, the four brothers headed down the stairs. Rock went to the liquor cabinet and pulled out a bottle of whiskey. “Anyone else want a shot?” His brothers nodded, and he poured one for each of them.

They talked quietly for a while, not wanting to disturb their guests. “It feels good to have her and Todd in our home,” River said, looking up the stairs as if he could picture Angie and Todd in their beds.

“Yes, it does. She’s a little younger than I thought she would be,” Rock said, voicing the concern they all had.

“She’s very mature for her age,” Sawyer said. “Not many girls her age would give up their life to take care of a young boy. They must have a very special bond.”

“Anyone can see how much they love each other.” Hunter poured them each another shot.

“They are both so easy to love.” Rock held out his glass. They all clinked glasses together and finished the shot.

“I never thought our woman would already be part of a family. But I’m okay with that. Really okay,” River said, filling their glasses one more time.

“Now to convince her she’s the one for us.” Sawyer held up their glasses for one more toast. They put their glasses in the kitchen and made sure everything was locked up before heading up the stairs.

Rock and River stopped to check on their guests before heading off to the other side of the house. Todd was sleeping soundly, but when Rock opened Angie’s door, she rolled over and looked at him.

“What’s the matter? Can’t sleep?” he asked softly, walking into the dark room. It was a cloudless night, and the light from the moon shone brightly. “Do you want me to close the curtains? Is the light too much?”

He walked over to the window and started to darken the room.

“No. It’s okay. I have a hard time sleeping in new places. I wish I had thought to bring something to read.” Angie stopped him closing the blinds and lifted herself up in the bed.

“Come with me. We have a library downstairs, and I’m sure you can find something to you’d like.” Rock reached for her hand and pulled her from the bed. As she stood up, he pulled her against his chest and held her tight a minute. “Come on.”

She followed him without thinking of reaching for her robe. He led her down the stairs to the back of the house.

“We have a little bit of everything in here.” Rock turned on a light, and the room had bookshelves along three walls. The other wall was all window.

Angie walked over to one of the bookshelves and started looking at the choices. “You’ve got quite a selection here.”

“These are some my sisters donated. You might like one of these,” Rock said, pointing to some of the books.

Angie put the book she’d been looking at back and walked over to Rock. He was holding a book by her favorite author in his hands.
