Chapter 8

Carla was so glad to see that her daughter was all right that she wept for an hour. Touching her wasn’t enough. She had to hold her and hug her as well. What made her the happiest was that Wynter allowed her to do that. And on some level, she thought that Wynter needed the comfort as much as she did.

“When I saw that on the news, I nearly had a heart attack.” Wynter told her that she had nearly done so too. “They’re saying that it could have been a great deal worse. Judge McIntosh was interviewed right after you called me. He said that it was because of you and the Manning men that everyone is all right.”

“I felt him there.” Carla knew that too. Her daughter had some abilities that she’d not had before since she’d met up with Tristan. “Oh, before I forget, Tristan and I were married in the judge’s chambers. He said that he didn’t want to lie to the people that put him into office, so we had to do it then. I thought sometime later we could have a little ceremony here. What do you think?”

“I think that you’re married. And while I would have loved for you to have had a large wedding with all the trimmings, I think that it would hurt me more because your dad wasn’t here to give you away.” Wynter hugged her again. “Oh Wynter.

I think he said something about a judgment, but since I didn’t make it that far in college, I’ll have to refer you to Hudson if you want information about it.”

“I’m just happy that you’re home. And safe.” Carla remembered something and got up to get it. “This came for you just after you left. It was sent by courier. Isn’t that the address of the man that we rented from? How on earth did he know you were married?”

“It is. I wonder what he wants. As for being married, most people think that we were already.” Carla had had to sign for it, and Wynter told her that she shouldn’t do that. “You might be caught up in something serious. I saw that while I was waiting on my hearing. You’d not believe what the person was in trouble for.” Wynter’s mouth dropped open. “He’s suing us.”

“Who is?” Wynter handed her the letter. “He’s suing us for back rent and damages? We didn’t even get out things out of that place. How does...he knows you’re married. To a Manning. The
