“I’m almost there now,” Chelsea mumbled, elbowing me in the ribs before changing her tone. “Please come back and visit soon.”

Piper scuffed her feet. “I’ll try.”

“Seriously…” I started, waiting until her eyes were focused on me before I continued. I needed to know I had her attention. “We get that you don’t want help. But if anything does come up, anything at all, then you call me.” I pulled our security business card out of my pocket and handed it to her. “My number is on there, if you can’t get me, the other number is a member called Leo,” I explained. “Tell him who you are, and what you need, and we’ll get someone to you as fast as possible.”

Her head bobbed up and down as she looked at the card in her hands. “Thank you. I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Don’t be a stranger,” Chelsea pleaded. “There are a lot of people here who would love to meet you. In fact, we’re having a huge lunch here for Christmas, please think about coming.”

Christmas was in just a few short weeks. We made it a great family event at the club—friends, family, everyone we knew was invited.

Piper looked to Chelsea, smiling like she had just found herself a new friend. “I’ll keep that in mind. It was nice to meet you.”

We stood at the gates as Piper drove off in her car and disappeared down the street.

Ham joined us as we watched her leave. “Do I want to know what that was about?”

A grin tugged at the corner of my mouth. “Seems as though Slider left us a present.”
