Nora seemed resigned to her fate by the time she drove away. And Victor found himself grateful that she had shown her true colors much earlier than Dawn did.

Dawn…

The image of her hugging that man once again floated through his mind, for what must have been the thousandth time since Wayne had sent him the picture a few weeks ago.

Asher Peretz. A visiting grad student from Pittsburgh.

He’d checked her school account directly after the incident and looked over all of their exchanges. But nothing inappropriate had been said. Mostly it was boring back and forth about school assignments.

There was no reason to be jealous. Dawn was aware of her invisible chains even if this Asher was not. Also, she’d had little to no opportunity to hook up with boys. Wayne dropped her off every morning and picked her up when she was done at school. If something was going on with the visiting grad student who had hugged her, it most likely wasn’t physical.

But then Victor recalled how hard he himself had fallen for Dawn before the first time they had sex. Really, before they even kissed. Did Asher feel the same way about her? Did she return his feelings?

An itch to check the security cameras came on even stronger than before. He even brought his phone out. But no…

Victor couldn’t destroy his progress. He hadn’t checked the feeds since his engagement meeting with Nora. And he needed to ensure he was wholly broken of that terrible habit before the wedding.

It was only four more months now. He could make it until then.

However, the phone erupted with a FaceTime call just as he was about to re-pocket it. Victor frowned when he saw the name on the caller ID.

It was from Wayne.

What could he want? And why would he be calling him on FaceTime?

The answer to that question was, he wouldn’t.

Dawn appeared on the screen when he answered the call, not Wayne.

And she looked like she had been crying.

Victor’s heart stopped. Had someone hurt her? That old protectiveness, which he still couldn’t control, surged inside of him.

As if in answer to his unspoken question, she said, “I stole the day guard’s phone. I wouldn’t have done that if it wasn’t important—and if his password wasn’t 123456—but mostly, it was important. It’s my mom, Victor. They found something on this liver biopsy she didn’t tell Byron she had to get until today. Something cancerous. And now they have to do surgery to cut it out.”

Dawn let out a shaky breath. “But she can’t get in touch with my dad, and Byron has some important thing this weekend. That leaves just me. I have to go to her. So I’m calling to ask permission…I need permission to fly down to Texas to be with my mom.”
