Chapter 5

Grey slipped back into the cabin, shutting doors behind him. The system of an entry area with two doors helped battle the cold and the wind. He decided it was practical if a minor nuisance. He found Dylan still in the chair, his head tilted back at what looked to be an awkward angle, fast asleep. Sasha and Sergei curled on either side of his legs, which were thrust out in front of him, the cast resting against the sound leg.

When he saw the stress and weariness marking the big man's features, Grey's heart clenched. Damn, I put him through a hell of an ordeal. What an asshole he must think I am. And he's right. Talk about a spoiled rich kid who didn't have a thought for anyone but himself and his own plans. From here on out, that's got to change.

Dylan had managed to get out of his parka. It lay on the floor to one side of his chair, the side away from the stove. Grey peeked in to make sure the fire was still burning well and added another chunk of wood. Then he looked around for a blanket or something to throw over Dylan. Maybe it wasn't really cold, but it felt mighty chilly to him and he'd read people's temperatures often dropped a bit when they slept.

He ended up going back to the bedroom and pulling a Hudson Bay striped blanket off the bed. Dylan mumbled something as Gray spread the blanket over him, but did not wake up. Grey then headed for the kitchen to see what he could scare up for an evening meal.

He'd actually taken a few classes in cooking, just for a lark, and he'd enjoyed it, even though he decided it wasn't the career he wanted. This was no time for a gourmet meal, but he could fix simple, hearty dishes as well. He'd found plenty of packages of meat in the freezer, some labeled for the dogs and others simply marked venison, elk, moose and so on. He had gotten a package of elk out earlier and it had thawed enough now to cut up. Browning the meat and then mixing in some canned vegetables, he managed a savory smelling stew. After that, he made a pan of biscuits.

Before he got the biscuits out, a sound alerted him. He turned to see Dylan standing in the doorway. The big man was still not steady on his feet and he'd grabbed the door jamb in a death grip to keep his balance. Grey sensed the other man's infirmity embarrassed him, so he ignored it for the moment.

"Ready for some grub? I've just about got it done."

"Smells good," Dylan admitted. "I guess that's what woke me up. Maybe you better take the dogs out. I try not to give them people food. They have their own special diet and that's best for them."

"I know. Sammy told me. Okay, let me get the leashes and I'll take them to the kennel.
