him, if he'd put it to good use for his future or, more likely, squander it on gambling, liquor and women.
    Caleb still had hold of Luke's arm and Henry grabbed the other one. “Let's go,” he told Luke.
    “I can go on my own,” Luke retorted, pulling his arms free. He turned around and walked out of the house, with Caleb, Henry and Gus following him. Murphy, who had been staring, wide-eyed at the whole scene, excused himself to go clean up the mess in the kitchen, leaving Josie and Sam alone.
    The sudden quietness blanketed them as Sam took Josie in his arms, embracing her. Josie was in shock, she still couldn't believe what had just happened.
    “I'm so sorry,” she told him.
    He pulled away to look at her. “Sorry? Oh, Josie, you have nothing to be sorry for. You've done nothing wrong. I'm so sorry he did that to you. I should have come after you right away, but I had to think it out, to make sure I was making the right decision. You must have bee so afraid!”
    “I was. I thought I'd have to leave you.”
    “You leave? But why?”
    “He's your brother. I thought you'd choose him over me.” It was hard to get the words out as Josie remembered back to the conversation with her mother when her mother defended George and wouldn't take action against him.
    “Let's get one thing clear, Josephine Dawson. I love you with all my heart and this is your home. I will do whatever I can to make you happy and safe and I don't ever want you to leave.”
    Tears rolled down her cheeks as she held him, never wanting to let go. “I'll never leave. I love you Sam.”
    Then they walked, hand in hand, outside to sit on the front porch swing that was just for them and count the stars together. Josie had never felt safer or more loved in her entire life. She wished that the moment would last forever. Because of everything she'd been through, she appreciated it that much more and as they sat together, she prayed a silent prayer of thanks to God, that she found the place where she was truly meant to be.
