were absolutely right. She’s the one for us. As soon as she opened the door, her scent floored me, strong and sweet.”
    “That’s what I noticed when I went to take care of Morgan. She came in with the lab results, and thankfully Morgan had all her attention. I almost leaned over to sniff her hair. My reaction felt like the description I’d heard from friends when they met the right woman. I wasn’t certain, because I had little time with her.
    “She’s not going to be easy to convince that we’re the men she should marry. I did have time to notice she had protective walls up high.”
    “We can break them down. I had the advantage of having her alone when she couldn’t leave. I invaded her space a few times as an experiment to see how she’d respond. I kissed her. As far as I’m concerned, she’s going to be our wife. We just have to slowly seduce her around to our way of thinking.”
    Jack grinned. “That should be fun. I’m going to the ranch house first thing in the morning to renew our acquaintance. You going with me?”
    “I’m going to get some sleep on my cot over there and stay here until her dog is out of danger. I’ll let you have the fun in the morning. She’ll come to me soon enough. In fact, why don’t you bring her for a visit in the morning? She’s going to want to see Montlief.”
    “What a name for a dog.”
    “Yeah, funny. She loves him. Which shows she has the capability to love. Right now, for some reason, she’s directed it all on him. I’m going to find out who or what sent her into her protective shell.”
    “See you in the morning.” Jack put his empty cup down and left the facility. He took long strides back to the large cabin he and Sahale shared. Well, usually one of them was gone, so it wasn’t often they were home at the same time.
    He lay on his bed and closed his eyes, remembering when he’d last seen Ellen. He’d told her he’d see her again. She’d gone all frosty on him and said she doubted it. He wasn’t going to sleep anymore tonight. His thoughts were too much on her and how she’d look when he greeted her in the morning.

    Surprisingly, Ellen had slept. When she opened her eyes, sunlight was coming around the sides of the drawn curtain. Wow, after she drank the hot chocolate and ate the sandwich Sara had given her, she’d gone to bed and straight to sleep.
    Montlief? She jumped out of bed. She had to check on him. She’d shower, dress, and get Sara to take her to him.
    She hurried, and it was barely seven thirty when she came out of her room and walked toward the living room. Sara had pointed out the kitchen and told her, if she was up first, to go there for breakfast.
    Ellen took long strides into the big, sunny kitchen. A woman was stirring something in a large pot.
    “Come in. I’m Tessa, the cook. Have a seat at the table by the window. You can join Jack for breakfast.”
    Jack? Ellen glanced around the woman at a small table set in an alcove surrounded by windows.
    “Good morning, Ellen.” Jack had stood. “I told you we’d meet again.”
    Ellen hesitated before walking across the room to the table. The doctor she’d met briefly when Morgan had been drugged was standing by the table. Something about him had bothered her. She hadn’t been able to get him out of her mind. When he’d stepped up to her at the door that day she’d been annoyed. He’d warned her not to speak of what she’d seen. Like she was a gossip and would go out and tell everyone.
    But more than that had worried her. Her heart rate had sped up at his nearness, and when she looked into his eyes she’d felt a response in her body. She’d almost run out of the building.
    Reluctantly she walked toward him. His dark blond hair fell over his forehead, sherry-colored brown eyes looked deep into hers, and her body tingled with the same unusual awareness.
    “I won’t bite,” he said in a whisper when she got close. He leaned down to her. “Or at least not unless
