CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
SHADOW
Jeremiah came out of his room, his eyes wide, his hair tousled from sleep.
âWhy is Aunt Evie so angry?â
âBecause women donât like to be told what to do, son.â
âOh,â he nodded, wisely. âYeah, I knew that.â
I laughed, looking over at him. âYou did?â
âYeah, Daddy told me that a long time ago.â
âWise guy, your dad.â
âHe is,â he nodded, solemnly.
âDo you miss him, buddy?â
âA little,â he said. âBut heâll be home soon, right?â
âYep, theyâll be back in just a few days.â
He shrugged. âI can make it.â
I looked over at him in admiration. He was steady as a rock.
Much steadier than I felt inside, that was for sure. Evie had me shaken. One minute she was nice to me, the next she was shouting and slamming doors like an angsty teen that was angry for being grounded.
And yet, I couldnât help but be slightly turned on by that show of anger.
She was feisty.
It was sexy.
And twisted, so damned twisted.
âDonât fucking touch her!â The little Slade in my head once again made an appearance, waving his fist at me to remind me of just how untouchable Evie was.
âSo, what do you think? Another fort today?â I asked Jeremiah. I needed to distract myself. I needed to distract my body. And I also wanted to distract him from going out to explore the trails today, because I donât want to fight with Evie again.
âSounds good to me!â
âGreat,â I said, with a small sigh of relief. âWhy donât you eat breakfast, while I workout for a few minutes, then we can get started. Sound good?â
âOkay!â
I made him a plate, then went outside and hit the dirt.
Pushups were the only thing I could do right now to give my body some sort of release.
A hell of a lot of pushups.
