My brows rose. “You don’t let anyone stay at your guest house.”

Webber was a loner to the nth degree.

He hated people at his place.

And to have not only Reign there, but Reign’s brother that I had no clue she had?

Well, that was saying something.

“Special circumstance,” he admitted. “She’s doing good, though. The baby’s good. Brother, not so good.”

“You want to talk about it?” I asked, hoping that he didn’t.

It wasn’t that I didn’t want to know, it was just that I had other things on my mind.

“Not right now,” he answered. “What was the second reason you’d called?”

I gave it all to him, ending with, “Was wondering if I could have one of the boys come and get your trailer.”

“It’s full,” he said. “Brother’s things are in it.”

I nodded, even though he couldn’t see me.

“Got it,” I said. “That’s okay. We may have enough.”

“You can have one of them come get my truck, though. I’ll drop the trailer,” he offered.

After thanking him, I checked my phone and saw that I received a message from Baker.

Baker:

This is Baker. Thank you so much for helping me. Are you sure it’s okay that I stay with you for a few days?

Baker knew all about me from her dad, I was sure.

That had to be why she was okay with coming to a stranger’s place.

Or maybe she was just that desperate.

Whatever the reason, I was glad that she wasn’t arguing.

Me:

Me:

Code to get into the apartment is 39933. I let my doorman know to let you in.

Me:

I’m fine with it. I’m barely ever there anyway. I’ll bring dinner when I’m done.

After sending those texts, I hooked up to my trailer and drove to Baker’s place.

She wasn’t there, likely having just missed her.

Cakes, Audric, Gunner, and Jasper were there, and they all had trailers hooked up to their trucks.
