Lynx helped her toward the doorway.
    “Thank you,” she called weakly over her shoulder to the two men as she walked out into the hall.
    “Oh Serena,” Lynx whispered. “What the hell am I going to do with you?”

CHAPTER 5
     
    She slumped down on the bed and covered her eyes with her hands. Her head was pounding and she didn’t know what to do or what to think. She had been so foolish. She had put herself and Lynx in danger because she was too proud and too curious to just tell him that she was coming and that she wanted to see him. She had been so full of fire and the need to know it all. She’d convinced herself that she had the right to know every single last detail of her brother’s life, and now she had gone and made a complete mess of everything. She cringed at the thought of how she had climbed into the back of the truck and trekked across the country secretly. Who the hell did she think she was, Nancy Drew? She had no right to be snooping around like she had done. She should have just asked around in town and found out some facts before she had gone all in, guns blazing. The irony.
    “Are you all right?” Lynx asked as he sat down on the edge of the bed and tapped her ankle reassuringly.
    Serena shook her head from below her palms and sighed.
    “I’m sorry, I feel like such an idiot. Have I gotten you in a ton of trouble?”
    Lynx laughed, and as she peeked out from behind her fingers, he shook his head.
    “Nah, it’ll be fine,” he smiled. “I’m sure we’ll all look back and laugh about the time The Forsaken almost shot my kid sister because Stick and Bull mistook you for one of The Iron Riders.” 
    And even though Serena was still shaken up, she managed to crack a smile and laugh too. It was all such a crazy situation. It only could have happened to her.
    “Stick?” she asked as she leaned up on her elbows. “Is that the guy with the blonde hair and crazy green eyes?”
    Lynx nodded with a wry smile on his face.
    “Yeah, he’s relatively new,” he said. “He was with me the night this happened.” He pointed down to his calf and winced. “I suppose I’m going to have to fill you in on everything, but I don’t want to overwhelm you for now. Why don’t you rest for a while; regroup and get your head around everything you’ve just learned?”
    Serena nodded and watched as her brother got to his feet and took hold of his crutch. He moved slowly toward the door, and even though he was injured, she could still see the strength within him and she was proud to have him in her family. She was proud and glad that she had someone who was her own flesh and blood that was strong and well put together. Someone who could take care of himself – and of her – if she ever needed him to.
    Lynx stopped by the doorway and turned back around.
    “I still can’t believe this is actually real. That you’re here. It’s crazy…,” he laughed.
    “I know, neither can I,” she said.
    “You’ve got some balls,” he smiled with a wink. “I wonder who you take after.”
    “Yeah, I have no idea,” Serena winked back. She looked down at her feet and still felt embarrassed that she had caused so much drama. She had no idea how she was ever going to move past it and make it up to them all.
    “Are you sure I’m okay here?” she asked. “Are they really all right with me staying, or will they want me to leave as soon as possible?”
    “God no,” Lynx shook his head. “You’re my sister, Serena. Of course, you’re welcome here. You’re one of the family. It’s not often we get someone knocking on doors out here, and even less likely for it to be someone’s sister or brother or parents. This is something to them. Like I told you, they’re my brothers now, and so you’re like a sister to them too. They’ll want to take care of you and make sure you’re safe.”
    Serena felt momentarily overwhelmed. She had never felt so much care and love flowing her way.
    “Tell them thank you,” she
