He cooks me eggs. He watches me sleep. He has six loaded guns and he's expecting company.
I woke up in a stranger's cabin with no phone, no car, and the news that my sister is dead. The man who took me says he's protecting me. He says the people who killed her are coming. He says I'm next.

His name isn't Silas. I know that much. His body is scarred and his hands are steady enough to kill, gentle enough to cup the back of my skull like I'm the only breakable thing he's ever held.

He loved a woman who looked like me. That woman is gone.

I should run. Every door is unlocked. Every window opens.

I stay.

That should terrify me more than the men in the trees.
