CHASE
“Well, this sure is one way to piss off the new in-laws.” Tripp
shakes his head but stays focussed on the task at hand. “You
could have just hired a car. This seems unnecessarily confrontational.”
“That’s the whole point.”
Ignoring his scowl, I scan our surroundings as we crest the rolling hills
and mountains of Grey Ridge, swooping low above the trees as we search
for somewhere to land. Reaching across him, I point to the flat expanse of
grass at the rear of the lodge.
Tripp raises an eyebrow, giving me one last chance to change my mind,
then reluctantly begins our descent with a weary sigh. He should know
better than to think I’d go back on my plan now that I’m committed.
As the landing skids meet the ground, touching down impressively
softly, Tripp grabs the sleeve of my shirt. Unable to stop himself from
giving me one last piece of advice before I take off the headset and yank
open the door; he points at the small group of people staring at us from the
expansive patio.
“If they’re happy, leave them alone, Chase. You’ll drive them away if
you push too hard.”
Tripp is like a brother to me, and he knows me too well. For the last
year-and-a-half he’s had to listen to me bitching and moaning about the shit
my sisters have been getting themselves into while I’ve been gone. It’s my
fault he’s so invested in this. Except he thinks I should just leave them be.
Hell no.
Again, I say nothing. It’s easy to tell he has no sisters. And that he
hasn’t been sitting in a foreign country, listening to the drip feed of
information from his family about what has been going on at home,
knowing it all lies but there’s nothing you can do about it when you’re so
far from him.
But I’m back now. And I’m going to find out what the hell is going on.
When I give him a smile and a salute, he curses, muttering something
about me being a stubborn asshole and watches silently as I jump down to
the ground. Ducking low to avoid the rotor blade, I jog away from the
helicopter. At a safe distance, I straighten, slowing to a walk as I approach
the back of the large lodge. The patio is filled with a bunch of oddly goodlooking strangers and two of my errant sisters.
They already look guilty.
Leah mouths” Oh, God” to Hayley, and I have to stifle a smile. Pulling
off my shades to get a better look at this place, I’m loath to say I’m
impressed. A three-storey log and stone lodge surrounded by beautiful
mountain scenery? This is the kind of place I thought I’d end up living if I
worked hard enough. It is not where I pictured high-flying corporate career
girl Hayley or social media addicted Leah.
“Hello, sis.” Standing far too close to them for my liking are two
extremely unhappy looking gentlemen. “Aren’t you going to introduce
me?”
