to have a Border Collie-Lab mix staring at her while she bit into her food. Against her strict regime for him, she gave Beau the occasional French fry until they got home.
Chapter 10
Savannah let the dog off the leash once they were inside the house. She set the remains of her binge on the kitchen counter and opened up the vet bill. It was such a shock that she started laughing. She was hysterical. She laughed so hard that she attracted the dog’s concern. She had to rub his head and assure him.
“It’s okay,” she said.
She looked at the bill again. Two thousand dollars and that was not including lab fees to keep her dog at the vet’s office. Reviewing the invoice made her laugh all over again. When she thought the fit had passed, she picked up the phone to call the vet’s office. As soon as Susan answered the phone, Savannah’s laughter was revived.
“Hold on,” said Savannah and she bent over laughing.
“Are you okay?” asked Susan.
“Yes,” she said. “I was just reading the bill. Is the bill really two thousand dollars?”
“Well, yes,” replied Susan. “It was emergency care.”
“Okay, well, I see you’ve also charged me for a follow-up exam,” said Savannah.
“Yes,” said Susan as though Savannah was being unreasonable. “You were just at my office.”
“You pet the dog. You didn’t examine the dog,” said Savannah.
And without being able to do anything to stop it, she began laughing again.
“I have to go,” said the vet. “Foley and I are in the middle of something. We can discuss this later.”

Savannah poured herself a glass of wine and drank it with the rest of her hamburger meal. She poured herself another glass when she finished her food. This glass she didn’t drink quite so quickly. She ambled around her house, really looking it over. She wandered out on to the patio and saw that a bike was out in front of the guest house. She put her glass down and decided to pay the guest house a visit. She decided it was probably time for them to go. She didn’t need ‘protection’ any more.
By the time she knocked on the guest house door, Savannah was feeling the effects of the wine, though she wasn’t drunk. Bull, one of the Ghosts, answered the door. He was more than polite. He invited her in, but Savannah was brief.
“You are welcomed to stay as long as you need to pack up, but I won’t need you guys to stay. I am fine. The house is fine,” she said.
Bull looked confused. Pike joined him at the door. Now, he was cute, thought Savannah. He had longish, silky hair the color of honey comb. He was younger than Savannah, but he was definitely adorable. Maybe even fuckable. Now, that was the booze talking.
“You want us to go?” asked Bull.
“Yes, please. I would like my privacy,” she said civilly. “And I don’t want to call the police.”
She didn’t want to throw the police threat in at all. But she knew they wouldn’t leave if she didn’t.
“Alrighty then,” he said.
“I will let Trenton know,” she said.
“Don’t you mean Foley?” asked Bull.
“No,” she said with a chilly smile. “I meant Trenton.”
As promised, she followed up with a text to Trenton. That was that. Savannah felt like she had her place finally. It was very similar to the relief she felt when the matter was legally settled between her stepmother and the estate lawyer. Paul Kerley. He was furious with her. The allegations that he had been harassing her had destroyed him.
Savannah made sure everything was locked up.
“Come on, Beau,” she said, and the two of them jogged to the bathroom off her bedroom.
She left the door that opened to the bedroom opened. Beau lounged on the rug while Savannah bathed. She was going to dress and snuggle in the movie room. She and Beau were going to watch movies together.
The phone buzzed. It was Trenton. He wanted to talk. Savannah ignored him. It buzzed again. It was Susan. She invited Savannah to chat about
