That jerk!
And she’d actually put on a little weight. A tiny bit, but she was getting there. Of course, she had lost some weight after Stefan’s death so, basically, she was back where she’d been before he’d taken her.
She was considering talking to someone about everything, though, because it was still a struggle to eat. And sometimes everything would just come over her, making it hard for her to breathe.
All right. Perhaps she was a bit fragile.
But she could handle anything Tanner threw at her.
“What you can have is this.” Devon plopped a bowl of fries in front of her.
She sighed. She’d only eaten a couple of fries when she felt him enter. Even though her back was to the door, she knew it was him because everyone went silent.
Turning, she could see why.
Oh, crap.
Perhaps she hadn’t thought this through. Getting to her feet, she looked around wondering if she could run.
But then he was in front of her. And suddenly she was flying through the air before she landed over his shoulder.
“Tanner! Put me down!”
Slap!
Holy. Heck.
This is what she wanted.
But not in front of everyone.
Yeah, you really didn’t think this through.
“Put me down.” She wriggled as he made his way outside.
Slap!
“Tanner, please. I’m sorry.”
“Not yet, but you will be.”
Well. Hell. That wasn’t ominous or anything.
The entire ride home was silent. He’d left the Ranch truck she’d driven into town, using his truck to take them back to the Ranch.
When they reached the bunkhouse, she undid her belt.
“Stay there.”
Gulp.
She watched as he ran to her side of the truck and opened the door.
Then she was over his shoulder again.
“Tanner!” she cried. “Someone will see!”
“Should have thought of that.”
