Take a Mountain Man Home for Christmas: A Mountain Man Romance Christmas Collection

I cleared my throat. “Is there some way I can call my mom or my boss?”
Viktor shook his head. “There’s no signal here.”
“Not even outside?”
Viktor gestured to the side of the cabin where there were no windows. “There is only rock. It blocks the signal.”
I didn’t like that description. I wanted to try. I had to call in to work and let them know I was still around. At least until my contract was up. And I needed to call my mom. She would be worried about me. I didn’t want her to think I’d left, just like he had. I didn’t want her to think there was anything in me that could be like my dad.
I walked to the door and opened it, stepping out of the cabin. I realized it was raining, a drizzle so fine I hadn’t heard it. I stepped back inside the door but didn’t close it. The air was so fresh and crisp here. I could taste it on my tongue, clean, pure. I felt Viktor’s eyes on me, watching me so intently while he was busy with the bird, plucking feathers.
I watched him for a moment, nausea creeping up on me. I felt dizzy. “I think I need to lie down.”
Viktor looked up, concerned. “Are you hurting?”
I nodded, pressing my fingers to my temples. “My head is killing me. I think I need…” My knees buckled.
Faster than humanly possible, it only took one long stride to bring Viktor to my side, and a thick, strong arm curled around me. He pulled me against him, and despite the throbbing in my head, my body responded to him. But darkness crept into the edge of my vision.
“Come,” Viktor said, leading me back to the bed and helping me lie down. “Just rest now. I will cook.”
I closed my eyes. I hoped when I woke up again, this would all have been a bad dream. I would be at home and everything would be normal.
Except, if that happened, Viktor wouldn’t be there.
Before I could decide how I felt about that, I slipped into a deep sleep.
