Chapter 74: S4 Redemption: Who is Your Friend?

Sophia Mahoney

A rap at the door makes her jump.

Thor trots to the entryway and voices a low, throaty growl.

Sophia makes it to the door by the time the second round of knocks reverberates through the walls. She glances through the peephole, and a smile washes across her lips. Slowly, she disarms the alarm, then opens the door.

She places a hand on Thor's head. "Sit, boy."

"Can I come in first?" Round hazel eyes stare down at her. "I promise, I'm house-trained."

"Travis." Her eyes water and the first wave of tears stream down her face.

"Hey, Soph." Strong, masculine arms wrap around Sophia's body. "Man. You're a sight for sore eyes." He holds her in a bear hug and lifts her off the ground.

Thor stands then walks around, wagging his tail.

Sophia closes hers eyes, wraps her arms around his neck and starts to cry. "I didn't know who else to call." She rests her head against his shoulder. "How could I have been so stupid?"
