Wells,” the chief said patiently, “unless he’s broken a law I have no cause to run him out of town, so don’t mistake what I’m here to do.”

      “What are you here to do?” Nicholas asked pointedly, drawing the chief’s attention back to him.

      “I’m here to warn you. It’s a damned shame that some folks have to act this way, but it’s only human I suppose. The fact of the matter is, I can’t guarantee your safety, considering.”

      Considering. Fury bolted through Camille. “That’s ridiculous.” She took a step in the chief’s direction. “When I was in the hospital, I had around-the-clock security. If you can do it for me, you can do it for Nicholas. Post a deputy outside.” She thrust her hand toward the front of the cottage. “I would think you would’ve already taken that measure.”

      The chief shrugged. “I’ll do all I can, Miss Wells. But the people of Raven’s Cliff are pretty worked up. They’ve been through a lot. Some folks aren’t thinking rationally.”

      “I appreciate your efforts,” Nicholas said. “But I can handle this myself.”

      “I don’t—” Whatever the chief would have said was interrupted by his cell phone. He pulled the phone from his belt. “Swanson.”

      Camille’s burst of adrenaline abandoned her, leaving her weak and feeling defeated. What did they do now? Finding her child had to be priority. If anyone got in the way—

      The chief’s call ended and he tucked the phone back into his belt, dragging her attention to him once more. “Looks like we’re about to find out just how ugly this is going to get.”

      The air in Camille’s lungs evacuated.

      “There’s a riled-up mob headed this way. My deputies are trying to dissuade them, but they’re not cooperating.”

      Before Nicholas or Camille could respond, the sound of angry shouts erupted outside.

      The chief rushed to the window and looked out, then turned back to Nicholas. “They’re here.”
