“Have you lost your damn mind?” Laura shouts at him. “You were almost Storm's dinner.”

“I’m glad I won't go to waste.”

Laura snorts a laugh. “That car out there waiting for you because you’re only going to be here for a few minutes or you got bags in it?”

“Bags.” Leo never takes his eyes off her.

I bite the inside of my cheek. I know that stern gaze of his all too well. He might be giving Laura a smile but he’s pissed and tired. That makes two of us. I only made it back here ten minutes ago. Leo almost beat me home somehow. I’m not even sure how that’s possible considering I left while he was still doing his exit interview. The one that had sent me running.

“Let the car in,” Laura radios in. “And come get these bags.”

“I’m not the fuckin’ bellhop. I just brought in Quinn’s bag,” my brother huffs over the line.

“You’re going to want to see what the cat dragged in.” Laura cackles at her own joke.

“I can get my own bags,” Leo says as the vehicle pulls down the drive once the gate opens.

“We need more room anyhow.” Laura shrugs.

The driver gets out and pulls two suitcases out from the back before he and Leo exchange a few words. Then the driver gets back into the car and just leaves. What the heck?

“Cat got your tongue?” Leo asks, making Laura laugh harder.

“Your car left.” I finally speak. I wince at my own words. Why is that the first thing I said? There are so many more pressing things. Like how the hell is he planning to get out of here? It’s not like you can just call a Lyft or Uber whenever you want. It could take days to get a driver to come out this way again. And most of all, I should’ve asked what he’s doing here.

“Don’t listen to her. She was raised in the wild. Her manners aren’t always the best.” Laura breaks me from all the thoughts that are racing through my mind.

“Hey, you helped raise me.”

“Is this the heartbreaker?” I groan at the sound of my brother's voice. He pulls up next to us. His cart has barely stopped before he springs from it. At least he put it into park. He strolls toward Leo.

“Pretty sure your sister is the heartbreaker,” Leo responds. I must have heard him wrong because I could’ve sworn he just said that I broke his heart. Don’t you have to be in love to be heartbroken?

“How do you know I’m the brother? Maybe I’m the ex.” Ethan tries to bait him.

“You’re not wearing a shirt, and the eyes. I’d know those eyes anywhere.” I sink my teeth into my bottom lip. The only same thing about my brother and me is our hair color and eyes.

“Are you flirting with me? You’re not normally my type but—”

“Ethan!” I snap. “You’re going to scare him.”

“Scare me? I’m flattered.” Leo holds his hand out. My brother stares at it for a long moment. I roll my eyes. Ethan finally takes his hand and shakes it.

“Maybe you should be scared.” Ethan doesn’t release his hold on Leo. “Since my sister came back here all teary-eyed. And you’re the cause of it.”

“I wasn’t teary-eyed.” I lie. I totally was, but Leo doesn’t need to know that.

“Liar,” Both Laura and Ethan say at the same time. Whose side are these people on?

“She ran from me,” Leo points out.

“Running is the quickest way to get caught. At least around here.” Ethan releases Leo’s hand. “My sister damn well knows that.” My cheeks warm. He’s not wrong. You don’t run. You’ll never make it. You have to stand your ground. Pretend to not be fazed or scared.

Except with Leo, I couldn’t pretend. Was this what I was hoping for? To see if he was going to pounce? I think I got my answer. I’m just not sure how this will ever work, but he’s here, nonetheless.

“Come on. Let’s get inside. I’m sure Leo is as tired as I am.” Ethan grabs one of his bags.

“You can ride with me. She’s still freaking out.”

“I am not!” I hiss at my brother. Why is he calling me out? The big jerk. He only winks at me as I glare at him.

“I take it we’re going to your cabin?” My brother wiggles his brows at me. I only nod my response, my face warming more.

“You okay?” Laura whispers as we drive back.

“He’s here.”

“He is.” She smiles at me.

When we get to my cabin, Ethan helps bring Leo’s bags in, setting them next to mine. I’d quickly dropped them when I got back and immediately went to check on things. Before I even had a chance to see how things were going, Leo was here.

“We’ll see you two later.” Laura grabs Ethan’s arm, pulling him out. The door closes behind them. It barely clicks shut and Leo pounces.
