Rain had no way of knowing if that was good or bad.

He was a monster. Whatever happened, she had no choice but to keep reminding herself this man wasn’t nice, and he wasn’t Daniel. He would kill them.

It was up to her to keep herself and Evelyn alive.

“There will be clothing delivered to you shortly. Get dressed, and I will collect you to see Evelyn.”

“You will?”

“Yes, and then we’ll have some lunch. We have much to discuss, Rain.”

He turned away and left. The sound of the bolts sliding into place filled the room, but she didn’t care.

Her lips were swollen, and alone in the bedroom, she brought her fingers up to touch them. She shouldn’t care about the power of a kiss, but there was no denying it had been one hell of a kiss.

Chapter Three

Seeing mother and daughter reunited again was sweet.

Rain held Evelyn close, hugging her tight, cupping her face, and kissing her lips, cheeks, forehead, and hair, before hugging her tightly.

The information Mitchell had given him had been thorough, but Wolf knew many details were missing.

On paper, Rain and Daniel Thomas were two young teenagers, best friends since babies, inseparable through their teenage years, and then married at the tender age of eighteen. Not long after Daniel’s cancer diagnosis. From the moment he was told the news, they both knew he wouldn’t survive.

Terminal. This had been his second diagnosis.

Wolf didn’t know how it happened for the man’s sperm to be saved, but that was what Rain had been impregnated by. He had to wonder if Daniel had been able to perform. From the kiss they shared in the bedroom, his intrigue about this woman hadn’t been appeased, not even a little.

He wanted to know every single little detail.

She had grown up in a small town. Her parents had been wealthy, as had her husband’s, but from the file he’d been given, the parents hadn’t approved of their marriage.

Rain had nothing to do with them. She was wealthy in her own right, even before Daniel’s wealth transferred to hers. It wasn’t about the money.

Included in the document had been a few pictures, not many, but he’d gone hunting. With the name of the school and town where she grew up, it didn’t take long for him to find more pictures of Rain and Daniel.

Daniel had been sick in almost all of the pictures as a man. At times, even in a wheelchair, then a couple had been taken in a hospital bed inside a home, until he’d been taken to a hospice.

Evelyn had been a shining beacon between the two, but what Wolf had noticed was in each picture as Daniel got sicker, the distance between the two had increased. As kids, they’d been close together. Daniel always holding Rain close, his hands on her waist, smiling at the camera. Even on their wedding day, they’d been close, happy, smiling. The smiles slowly faded in each picture as did the touches, until it was like looking at two strangers posing for the same picture.

There was a story there.

He stared at Rain and wanted to know what had happened.

Why had she agreed to marry a dying man? Why did she have a child with him? Did she still love Daniel? Why had she moved away from the friends and family she knew? Why had she kissed him back like a starving woman?

So many questions.

“Will you come to my tea party?” Evelyn said.

Wolf cleared his throat, and he saw Rain hold her daughter a little tighter.

“I think it is time for you both to come and join me for my tea party. You told me your favorite dinner was spaghetti, right?” he asked.

Evelyn nodded her head and giggled.

“It’s my favorite too.” He winked at her. It was a complete lie. He was a steak and potatoes kind of guy, but to see the smile on Evelyn’s face, he could handle a few pasta meals.

He held out his hand, and Evelyn wriggled out of her mother’s arms and ran toward him, throwing her arms around his waist.

He patted her back, and Evelyn held on to his hand with ease.

One look at Rain, and there was something on her face, but he wasn’t sure exactly what as within seconds, it was gone. This woman was messing with his mind.

Evelyn tugged on his hand, and he left the bedroom.

The guards ignored them as he’d told them to.

He didn’t want Evelyn to be afraid. There was no stopping Rain in her thoughts, and he had no intention of doing that.

They walked down to his dining room. The moment he entered, he saw one of his staff rush to the kitchen. He helped Evelyn into her seat, and then quickly moved to his other side, holding out a chair for Rain to sit.

She hesitated for only a split second, glancing at Evelyn before taking a seat, which he helped to slide beneath the table.
