“He is Sophia’s uncle, we’re still not sure, and in answer to your third question, again, we’re not sure.”

Jesska let out a frustrated sigh. “Useless.”

Cameron chuckled. “I know.”

“Let’s discuss what you do know.”

Cameron nodded as he chewed.

Jesska took a swig of water and then asked, “Why didn’t Megan tell us about this uncle person and that he might come looking for them?”

Cameron shook his head. “I don’t think she knew about him. I don’t know all the details, but when Megan got back to the States, she changed Sophia’s name, took on Mom’s maiden name, and filled me in on what she said she could. I don’t know all the details. I think she’s a little surprised it’s taken this long for these people to come looking for her. I think she expected it to happen a while ago.”

“This guy that Megan ran off to Iceland with, what happened to him?”

“No idea,” Cameron admitted. “Megan’s on her way from court, so she’ll hopefully be able to fill us in.”

“Are they in danger?”

“I don’t think so, Messka. I think Kaspar’s just looking for answers.”

“Kaspar? That’s the uncle?”

Cameron nodded.

Jesska tried to stamp down her dreamy reaction. Sexy man, sexy name, sexy everything. Yep, she was in big, big trouble. Shaking off her thoughts, she carried her plate to the sink and finished the dishes.

Megan arrived almost an hour later, rushing in to see Sophia before sitting down with Cameron and Jesska. Jesska frowned. Her sister was frazzled. Megan didn’t get frazzled.

“Sophia filled me in on everything, including this man putting his hand on her,” Megan said. “Which is not okay. No one touches my girl.”

“He was helping her, I think,” Jesska rushed to say. She had no idea why she had the sudden need to defend him.

“No one touches her, period.”

“Yes, of course.”

“Did he say what he wanted?” Megan asked.

Jesska shook her head. “Not in so many words. He called her Ása and said he was her uncle.”

“Shit.”

“Dalton told me to let you know someone’s looking for you and Sophia,” Cameron said.

“And you didn’t think that would be something I should know?” Megan ground out.

“I wanted more information before I worried you.”

“You are a total pain in the ass, Cameron,” she said. “Stop trying to protect everyone.”

“No,” he countered.

“What do you know?”

“Not much, Megan,” Cameron admitted. “Just that someone is looking for you.”

Megan swore.
