Finlay was sitting on the couch in the dark room. His elbows on his knees and his head resting in his hands. I walked up
to the fireplace. I knew he always kept it stocked this time of year. It lit without an issue. I walked over to the couch and
sat down next to him.
“I don’t know if I can do this,” he said without looking up.
“I know how you feel, but you will find a way,” I told him.
“Did you get your shoulder checked out?”
“I did. They told me I was wasting their time,” I said. Finlay turned his head and gave me a sideway look. “Fine. They
scolded me for not coming sooner and gave me an ointment. But that’s just because all healers think it’s the end of the world if you don’t come and see them when you stub your toe.”

forward so I would lean my forehead on his slumped shoulder blade.
“You won’t. It really isn’t that bad. It hurts like hell but it’s healing and at the most I will have a scar on my shoulder. But
I’m not going anywhere,” I promised him.
“Good.” We sat like that for a while in silence. “How are the boys doing?” he asked.
“Good. I talked to them after dinner and they have got over the worst of it. Give them a week or two and they will see it
as scary, but exciting. I think we kept them away from seeing the worst of it. They were more than happy with all the hot
coco and attention they got after.”
“You,” he said.
“Sorry?”
“You kept them away from the worst of it, not we. And you kept them safe when you were discovered.”
“And I failed to get them out of there. I decided we needed to stay put and by doing so I forced the rest of you to come
and rescue us. It’s my fault we lost him,” I told Finlay.
“Amie,” he objected and sat up for the first time. I took a deep breath and shook my head as the tears started rolling
down my face. I had been keeping them at bay until now. But right now it was just Finlay and I knew I could be weak
around him.
“I made the decision that ended with us losing Martin, our Beta. That is on me,” I insisted.
