information. Ellen now knew they were both married to two men, which Ellen had begun to suspect. They also told her about the men having unusually well-developed senses and strength. “Would the little I know harm you all?”
    “Maybe not, but they’d keep trying to get more out of you. They wouldn’t have believed that’s all you knew.”
    She shivered. “I’m glad Sara and Morgan are so happy. Still, when you and your men came into our lives it turned them upside down.”
    “True, and right now you feel like the last man out.”
    “I’m not jealous. I just miss them.”
    Daren nodded. “Maybe we can find a job for you on the ranch. If Mitch agrees, we might make an exception and let you stay. If you’d like to live there.”
    “I don’t know what I want, except I want Montlief to be all right.”
    “Fair enough. You can give me an answer anytime.” He stood and walked down the hall in the direction Sahale had taken.
    Sahale and Daren returned shortly before the time to land. Sahale sat beside her. “Montlief is doing much better. I did some blood work and gave him more medicine. By tomorrow we’ll know if he’s going to make it.”
    She nodded and looked out the window. Her eyes were brimming with tears, and she hated for people to see her cry. Sahale’s hand wrapped around hers.
    “When things settle down, I want to show you some of the ranch you haven’t seen. I think you’d like to see some of the bluffs and the wild horses.” He talked quietly to her as she fought to get her composure. He didn’t ask questions or try to comfort her other than holding her hand. He was just there, a solid, warm wall blocking her from the others’ view.
    How did he know just what she needed? If he’d said words trying to comfort her, she’d have lost it. Instead, his voice, as he talked of the ranch, rolled over her like a warm blanket. Her body gradually relaxed, the tears went away, and her strength returned.
    After the landing, the door was opened and the men hurried down the steps to their cars. The night was dark and cool.
    Daren came to her side at the bottom of the steps. “Sahale is going with Montlief to our animal hospital. You’re coming with me. Sara will have a cup of hot chocolate waiting for you.”
    “Thank you for everything.”
    Daren put his arm across her shoulders and guided her to his truck. “That’s what family is supposed to do, take care of each other.”

    Jack Talisman walked across the yard and down a dusty lane to the back of the animal hospital. He’d heard Sahale was back, and knew he’d be there. Jack had wanted to go straight to the main ranch house where Daren had taken Ellen, but it was too late for a visit. He’d have to be patient and wait for morning. He opened the door and went into the first exam area.
    “Sahale, how’s her dog doing?”
    “Better. I’m running some more tests to try and determine what he ingested.”
    “How’d they get to him locked inside Ellen’s apartment?” Jack stood beside Sahale watching him work.
    Sahale raised his head. “That’s what I’d like to know. But they had to have had a key made. The same as me. There was no evidence of a break-in.”
    “I’m glad it was decided to send you to keep an eye on her.”
    “Yes. They’d have taken her tonight. While she was packing I slipped into her guest bedroom. It faces the street. They’d started to cross over to her apartment. I turned on the light and let them see my shadow. They turned and went back to the van.” Sahale looked across at his assistant. “You stay with Montlief tonight. I’ll have someone relieve you in a few hours.” He turned, took off his gloves, washed his hands, and led Jack to his office. “I think they called whoever the boss is, and he must have told them to wait it out, expecting me to leave.” Sahale sank into his chair.
    Jack poured them both a cup of coffee, closed the door, and sat across from him. “What do you think?”
    “You
