Muted voices carry down the hall toward me, but even without them, I would have known the second Lance arrived. The air seems to shift when he’s near, and the churning in my stomach eases just slightly. As though his presence alone makes me feel safe. I hate it. Heart in my throat, I get up and make my way out into the hall. I’m just stepping into the living room when Lance—back to me—closes the front door. Michael is gone, his laptop and gear all packed up, too. Lance turns to face me, and we stare at each other. The exhaustion on his face is the first thing I note. There’s a darkness in his eyes that wasn’t there before, and his mouth is flattened into a tight line. “Are you all right?” he asks, setting his bag down and crossing over to me. My throat constricts. “Doc says I’m fine.” Lance reaches up and gently brushes my hair behind my ear. “But are you okay?” When his gaze is on me, I get the sense that Lance sees so much more than I try to let him. Almost as though he can see straight through me to the deepest recesses of my soul. The desire to lean into him, to wrap my arms around his waist, is so strong that I force myself to take a step back. “I’m fine.” Lance drops his hand. “I’m sorry I left. I should have been there.” “There’s nothing you could have done,” I insist. “Still.” He shakes his head, his expression defeated. "I should have been here to protect you. I won't make that mistake again." ______ Escape into stories that stay with you with this 12-book Christian romantic suspense bundle.
