She cleared her throat.

“I’d like to cook if you’d let me.”

Malik chuckled.“Heck, yeah.Anytime you want.We’re limited with the electricity off, but when it comes back on, do whatever you want.”

“Good.I have a spaghetti sauce I haven't made in a long time, and I miss it.”

“I love spaghetti,” Aiden said.

Malik snorted.“You love everything.”

“That’s good to know,” she said and laughed.

Once they cleaned up after lunch, the three moved back into the living room.

Aiden put on another log.Camila looked out one of the windows and wrapped an arm around herself.

Malik came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her.“You okay?”

“Yes.It looks like it’s coming down hard again.”

He nodded.“The Weather Channel warned us it was going to be a doozie and last for several days.”

“And no one can get up here?”

He heard the nerves in her tone.

“Absolutely not.No one can come up, and we can’t go down.”

“Really?What if there’s an emergency?”

“If the weather calmed enough, a helicopter could be brought in, but both Aiden and I know first aid.You kind of have to learn in the military.We’ve both had to sew ourselves up a few times.”

“I can’t imagine.”

“Please don’t worry.We can take care of you.”

She turned in his arms and set her hands on his chest.“I know.I’ve never doubted that.”

He pressed a kiss to her lips.“Good.Because nothing will happen to you while you're with us.”
