That night as they were in bed, holding tight to each other, Theo promised ," I swear, I won't get any more involved with this crazy business than I already am. "

Reed pressed a soft kiss atop Theo's head. " Good."

" I will not endanger you. Or Matt and Saint and Livvie. Whoever did this is not playing around. What he did to Vanessa was bad enough but Samantha...... That poor child was in the room with his dead mother. "

He closed his eyes. He willed his mind to block out the images of the two bodies. And the one of Benji crying.

" I know. "

" Reed , I was alone so long in so many different ways. Sure. I had my family. I love them and they love me. I know this. I had Charles. And my job. But I was still alone. I was empty. Until I met you again. And now Matt and Saint. And Winnie. And our goddaughter. I won't lose any of you. I will not. "

And he really meant that. He really wanted to keep his promise to Reed but Theodore Walton - Fisher was about to learn that sometimes fate had different plans for you.
