Ch. 1 The USB

ClaireI found the USB because Grant had too many damn shirts.One slipped behind the dresser while I was putting his laundry away. I reached for it, caught my fingers on tape underneath the back edge, peeled it loose, and a black USB dropped into my palm.“Mommy!”I shoved it into my leggings before Lilly came into the bedroom wearing one pink sock and enough chocolate around her mouth to tell me why she’d been suspiciously quiet. Her auburn curls were everywhere.I pointed at her mouth. “What did you eat?”“Nothing.”“Try again.”“Mr. Pickles ate it.”“Mr. Pickles is a stuffed rabbit.”“He gets hungry.”“Apparently he also steals socks. Where’s your other one?”She looked down. “I don’t know.”“Go wash your face before Daddy gets home.”“But—”“Bathroom. Now.”She wandered off defending Mr. Pickles, and I pulled the USB back out. Grant didn’t lose things or tape them underneath furniture.Put it back.That would have been smart.Instead, I slid it into the zipper pocket inside my le

Ch. 2 The Gate

Claire’s POV“Then Grant and I can catch up.”The gate finished closing as the headlights came farther up the access road. I climbed out of the SUV and went straight for Lilly.“Mommy?” She was still strapped into her booster, Mr. Pickles pinned under one arm.“I’ve got you.”“Is that Daddy?”“I think so.”Her hands went around my neck as soon as I got the buckle loose. I lifted her out and set her on the ground beside me.“I don’t want to go home.”“You’re not going home.”Nick looked back once, making sure we were behind him, then faced the gate again.Grant’s vehicle stopped on the other side hard enough to kick dirt behind the tires.He got out immediately.He hadn’t stopped to clean up. Blood had dried from above his ear down the side of his face where I’d hit him with the poker. His shirt was twisted from the fight, and he came straight for the gate.“Open it.”Nick stayed where he was.Grant looked past him. “Claire, get Lilly in the car.”“No.”“Don’t do this.”“You followed m

Ch. 3 Mama

Claire’s POVThe room Nick gave us was at the back of the clubhouse, down a hallway far enough from the bar that the voices behind us faded by the time we reached it. It wasn’t much—one bed, a dresser, a nightstand, a lamp, and a small bathroom—but it was clean. Nick carried in a first-aid kit, two bottles of water, and another blanket, setting everything on the dresser before pointing at the deadbolt.“Locks from the inside. Teo will be up for a while if you need anything.”Lilly sat in the middle of the bed with Mr. Pickles in her lap and Teo’s enormous black socks bunched around her ankles. “Does he really snore?”Nick looked over at her. “Like a chainsaw.”“How do you know?”“I’ve known him a long time.”“That doesn’t mean you sleep with him.”Nick looked at me.I bit the inside of my cheek. “She’s tired.”“I’m not tired.”“You complained about being tired in the car.”“That was in the car.”Nick gave me a look that said I was on my own with that one. “Check her arm.”“I will.”He

Ch. 4 They Need Clothes

Nick’s POVBennett finally pulled away from the end of the access road a little after four in the morning.Teo had been sitting in the security room watching the cameras. He came into my office once to tell me the sheriff was still parked there, then again when the headlights finally disappeared toward town.I hadn’t bothered going to bed.Claire’s flash drive was locked in the safe behind my desk. I left it there. Whatever Bennett had hidden on it could wait until Evan came in. He handled the club’s cameras, computers, security systems, and anything else most of us had no patience for.Claire and Lilly had come through my gate with no shoes, phones, money, clothes, or anything else people usually grabbed when they planned on leaving home.Claire hadn’t planned any of this.She’d grabbed her kid and run.I was halfway through my second cup of coffee when the hallway door opened and Lilly wandered into the clubhouse with Mr. Pickles tucked under her arm. One of Teo’s black socks had sl

Ch. 5 More To The Story

Nick’s POVEvan closed his laptop and unplugged the small adapter he’d been using with the copy of Bennett’s drive.“I’ll come back tonight,” he said. “I’d rather go through it when the place is quiet and I’m not getting interrupted every ten minutes.”“That works.”He picked up his laptop and looked at the safe behind my desk. “Leave the original where it is.”“Wasn’t planning on carrying it around in my pocket.”“You say that now.”“I’ve managed to run this club without losing a flash drive.”“You’ve also called me because your printer stopped working.”“It did stop working.”“You unplugged it.”“That was one time.”“It was last month.”I pointed toward the door.Evan laughed and left.I was reaching for my coffee when somebody knocked twice and came in without waiting.Teo.Of course.He shut the door behind him and stood there looking at me.“What?”He walked over to the chair across from my desk and sat down. “Okay, Prez.”I waited.He stretched his legs out in front of him. “Wha

Ch.6 Messages

Claire’s POVI left Nick’s office a little after eleven with Grant’s drive locked back in his safe and Evan taking the copy home with him.Nobody tried to stop me when I said I was going to bed. Nick asked if I needed anything before I went, I told him no, and he let me leave.Lilly was still asleep when I opened the bedroom door. She had rolled almost completely across my side of the bed, taking both stuffed animals with her. Kevin was tucked under her arm and Mr. Pickles was somewhere beneath the blankets near her feet.I stood beside the bed for a minute before taking my shoes off.She looked exactly the same as she had when I left her.I changed in the bathroom, washed my face, then climbed into the small strip of mattress Lilly had left for me. I had barely pulled the blanket over my legs when my phone vibrated on the nightstand.Grant.I let it ring until it stopped.He called again.The second call stopped too, and then the messages started.“Claire, answer the phone.”I turned

Ch.7 Iron Saint Records

Grant’s POVThe bleach smell hit me before the coffee did.I stopped at the edge of the kitchen and stared at the floor beside the island.I had scrubbed it the morning after Claire left. Got down on my knees before sunrise with a bucket, bleach, and one of the old towels from the garage because there had been blood in the grout.Not much.Enough.Yesterday I cleaned it again.The floor looked normal now.The refrigerator didn’t.There was a shallow dent in the stainless steel where Claire had hit it two evenings ago.I took my coffee over to it and ran my fingers across the crease.I remembered my hand around her throat.Her fingernails digging into my wrist.The sound of bottles knocking together inside the refrigerator when I drove her backward.She got away from me for maybe two seconds before I caught her again.The island stopped her that time.She went down hard.I kicked her in the ribs when she tried to crawl away.Then I grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled her back.Nob

Ch.8 Served

Claire’s POVThe man at the gate handed me the envelope through the narrow opening and asked me to confirm my name.“Claire Bennett.”He made a note on his phone. “You’ve been served.”That was it.He walked back to his car while one of the Iron Saints locked the pedestrian gate again, and I stood there holding an envelope thick enough to make my stomach turn.Nick was beside me. Teo stood a few feet away. Lilly had refused to stay inside, so she was pressed against my hip with Kevin under one arm and Mr. Pickles dangling from the other hand.She stared at the envelope. “Is it from Daddy?”“I think so.”“What does he want?”“I have to read it first.”Her mouth tightened, but she didn’t ask anything else.We went back inside. I made it as far as the first table before I sat down and opened the envelope.Grant’s name was at the top of the first page.Mine was underneath it.Then Lilly’s.I read the heading twice before the words settled into something I understood.Emergency temporary c

Court

Claire’s POVThe courthouse doors opened at eight-thirty, and Grant was already there.I saw his county SUV before Nick finished parking. It sat two rows from the entrance, clean enough to shine under the morning sun, the sheriff’s star printed across the door. My hand stayed on the buckle after I released it.Nick looked through the windshield, then at me. He had left his cut at the clubhouse. So had Teo. Both of them wore jeans and plain shirts, and if I hadn’t known who they were, I wouldn’t have looked twice.“We can sit here another minute,” Nick said.“No.”Lilly leaned forward from the back seat between us. Kevin was trapped under one arm, and Mr. Pickles sat in her lap with one floppy ear folded over his face.“Are we late?”“We’re early,” I told her.“Then why aren’t we going?”Because my husband was inside a building full of people who knew him as Sheriff Bennett before they knew him as anything else.I opened my door. “We’re going.”Teo got Lilly out while Nick came around

Ch.9 Stay

Nick’s POVBy the time we got back through the gate, Lilly had decided Teo was responsible for carrying both stuffed animals because her hands were busy holding Claire’s.Teo climbed out with Kevin tucked under one arm and Mr. Pickles under the other, staring down at them like somebody had handed him two things he had no idea what to do with.“You know she carried these into the courthouse herself,” he said.Lilly kept walking. “They’re tired.”“They sat in a chair.”“Court is boring.”I shut my door and looked across the roof of the truck at him. “Can’t argue with that.”Teo pointed Mr. Pickles at me. “You’re not helping.”Claire laughed as she followed Lilly toward the clubhouse. Lilly looked up at her, grinning, then started telling her she was hungry even though I’d watched her eat crackers in the waiting area and half a granola bar on the drive back.Nobody came outside asking what happened.I’d already made sure of that.The guys knew where we’d gone and why. They didn’t need to
